《The Lethargic Man Full of Energy》 Chapter - 1 The feeling of a knife plunging into the chest of the man he hated while blood ran through his small fingers, was accompanied by the feeling of a heartbeat growing fainter and fainter as while tears streamed down his face. He hated the man for what he had done, and he would never forgive him, but now that he had killed them he hoped that they would rest in peace¡­ they, who were laying down just metres away from him, were nothing but cold lifeless husks now. He would never forget the face of them man who killed them, nor would he forget the sweet release he felt when he plunged the knife into the mans chest during this night. But despite this, all he could think of right now was how scared and alone he was without anyone in his life to be beside him. After killing the man, he just sat there, covered in blood while crying until the morning came. *** Thanatos woke up from the dream that he has had many times over the years and took a look around. Underneath a tree inside of a forest, on his side clinging to him like how a child does to a stuffed animal, was the girl he came to know as his sister, Shyelle. After watching her use him as a full body pillow for several minutes he decided to get up before she did in order to avoid a scene he would very well like to avoid. ''*sigh* she looks so innocent when she¡¯s asleep, its too bad she isn¡¯t so peaceful when she¡¯s awake¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought as he delicately removed himself from Shyelle¡¯s grasp. Looking up to the sky and noticing how early it is, he decides to go and hunt something in order for them to eat breakfast. *** After hunting for about 20 minutes, Thanatos came back to the tree with the sleeping girl under it accompanied by a small deer hung over one shoulder and a bundle of wood on the other. He then lit a fire and hung the deer above it using some of the wood gathered by placing the pieces together carefully so he can watch it cook. After watching the deer cook for a short while he went to go wake up Shyelle. ¡®Ok, I have to do this carefully now¡­¡¯ after Thanatos approached Shyelle¡¯s feet in order to get as far away from her reach as possible, he taps her foot with his and then swiftly moves behind the tree for cover.

Report any sightings. ¡°Thana!!!! *ooph*¡± (Shyelle) The girl named Shyelle had jumped towards where Thanatos was standing only a moment ago with arms spread out wide once she had awaken, and then landed face first on the ground as a result. ¡°Owwwww, Thanaaaaaa... you meanie¡­¡± (Shyelle) As Shyelle rubbed her head to make it feel better, she complained to Thanatos. ¡°Well if you didn¡¯t jump at me every time you got up in the morning, you wouldn¡¯t be thinking that would you? Now get up, breakfast is going to be ready soon.¡± (Thanatos) After scolding her like he did every morning, Thanatos walked out from behind the tree and over to the fire in order to check on the process of the deer being cooked. Once he determined the deer was fully cooked and called out Shyelle over once more as she was still standing beside the tree pouting, he took the deer off the fire and placed it on a small rack he made of wood in order to cut it. As he was finishing cutting the dear, Shyelle came over and sat on the ground beside him while still pouting. ¡°Come on, stop pouting. If you don¡¯t eat soon the food will get cold and then you¡¯ll really be upset.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°I am upset! I didn¡¯t get my morning dosage of Thana when I woke up and instead I found myself with my face in the ground!¡± Shyelle retorted as she turned her head to the side away from Thanatos and crossed her arms to make her point. ¡°Uh huh¡­ well, we¡¯re going to town today so you better eat up while you have the chance.¡± Once he said this to her he rubbed her head, and as a result she immediately became happy as she swayed her body side to side with a smile on her face. *** Once they finished eating and put the fire out, they decided it was time for them to go into the hated town they both haven''t seen in years. Chapter - 2 While walking through the forest to their current destination, Shyelle is currently riding on top of Thanatos¡¯s back while humming happily and bobbing her head from side to side. ¡°Hey, Shy.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°We¡¯re almost there, do you want to get down now?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Nope, I¡¯m gonna keep on riding Thana-nii!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°...*Sigh*¡­¡± (Thanatos) After Shyelle said this Thanatos thought to himself about how other people would interpret what Shyelle had just said, but then realized that he wouldn¡¯t care either way and just dismissed it. After he finished thinking about what Shyelle said, he noticed that she had stopped humming and her arms which were around his neck had started gripping him tighter. Thanatos then stopped walking and decided to question why her mood suddenly darkened. ¡°Shy?...¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Huh?¡± Shyelle who was reminiscing while riding on Thanatos¡¯s back noticed that they had stopped after a short while and was taken by surprise. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? I haven¡¯t heard this much silence from you in quite a long time.¡± Thanatos smirked as he poked fun at her while still being concerned. ¡°Ah¡­ I was just thinking about how long its been since we were last here, and how we met in that town¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Hm¡­¡± (Thanatos) Realizing that Shyelle must have mixed feelings while thinking about the past, Thanatos decides to continue onwards to the town while staying quiet. *** When Thanatos and Shyelle are about to reach the gate to the city, Shyelle decides to speak again. ¡°Thana¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Hm?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°We¡¯re really going back aren¡¯t we?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Why else would we be just outside the gate?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°¡­ Nothing is gonna happen this time right?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°It won¡¯t be anything like when we were here before, now get down off my back, we¡¯re here.¡± (Thanatos) Shyelle reluctantly gets off of Thanatos¡¯s back and nods to him affirming her resolve. She then wraps her arm around his and proceeds up to the gate to the city that has haunted her life for so long. At the gate there were four guards stationed on each side of the double doors, and above the doors was a sign that read: ¡°Kingdom of Darwech¡±. What was once a small town had now turned into a large kingdom in the 10 years that the duo were absent from it. While thinking that so much has changed in so little time, they approach the closest guardsman to ask for entrance. ¡°Whats your business here?¡± (Guardsman) ¡°My sister and I are here to attend the Darwech Magic Academy.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Do you have any identification?¡± (Guardsman) ¡°Here.¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos reached into a bag he was carrying and pulled out some papers and handed them to the guard. The guard repeatedly looked down at the papers and then back up at the two standing in front of him with a shocked expression on his face. ¡°Welcome back, Thanatos, Shyelle. The entrance fee is 5 copper coins.¡± (Guardsman) Thanatos reached into a pocket and grabbed 5 copper coins then handed it to the guard as he took their papers back, while doing so the other guards present just looked at them with puzzled expressions.Thanatos recognized the guard from when he lived in the town many years ago, but had forgotten about him until his reaction just now. After Thanatos payed the fee, the two walked through the gate and could hear some murmuring among the guards on the other side of the gate. Shyelle who was a little confused of what had just happened since security was generally more thorough than what just occurred, decided to ask Thanatos. ¡°Thana, who was that man?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Our old neighbour. He used to live in the house between yours and mine.¡± (Thanatos) Shyelle instantly widened her eyes in surprise while feeling a small bit of guilt due to not having recognized the man nor being able to remember his name. Thanatos who noticed this decided to cheer her up a bit. ¡°Don¡¯t mind it too much, its been a long time. Now lets go talk to that damnable Principle...¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos rubbed the top of Shyelle¡¯s head and her expression immediately brightened up from the gloomy appearance it had a moment ago. *** Thanatos and Shyelle proceeded through the city to a large building with a sign over its front doors that says ¡°Darwech Magic Academy Administration Building¡±. They then walked up to the entrance and Thanatos opened the door while making a guiding motion with his arm. ¡°After you.¡± (Thanatos) Shyelle smiled brightly as she walked through the door that was open by her beloved brother with a slight hop in her step. The two then continued on their way until they arrived at the entrance to an office which belongs to the Principle of the academy. Above the doors to the office was a sign saying ¡°Principle Joseph Harmoor¡¯s Office¡±. Shyelle walked up to the doors and knocked to check if anyone is inside. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. ¡°*knock knock* Hello?¡± (Shyelle) After waiting for a few moments they received a response from a voice on the other side of the doors. ¡°Come in.¡± (???) Shyelle opened the door to the office and her and Thanatos walked inside. Sitting behind a desk on the other end of the room was a man who appears to be in his late 40s with a business-like smile on a handsome face. The most noticeable thing about the man were the long pointed ears he had which showed that he was an elf, which is surprising to the two entrants as not many elves lived in the area 10 years ago. ¡°Welcome, have a seat.¡± (???) The man gestured to two seats in front of his desk which the two quickly placed themselves in, on the man¡¯s desk they found a nameplate that says ¡°Principle Joseph Harmoor¡± on it. ¡°Would you two like something to eat or drink?¡± (Harmoor) ¡°How about we talk instead.¡± (Thanatos) Harmoor who appeared to be planning to do the interview for the two¡¯s admission into the school in a light-hearted manner was immediately turned down by Thanatos in a cold voice. ¡°Hmmm, ok, then lets talk about your admission here.¡± (Harmoor) ¡°You two applied to be together in our most advanced magic class with minimal notice at the last minute with absolutely zero references¡­ So tell me for what reason should I let you two join? It seems to me that you two are both unable to prove you belong in said class, or that you should even be allowed into the academy.¡± (Harmoor) ¡°We were going to apply earlier, but unfortunately we were delayed along the way here by numerous thieves that kept thinking that we had something of value for them to steal¡­ And as for whether or not we belong in the class¡­ Why don¡¯t you think of it as a fun surprise since you seem to enjoy things like that?¡± (Thanatos) After Thanatos spoke he had a mischievous smile on his face which he has rarely ever shown before. Due to this Shyelle was looking at him with slightly widened eyes but instantly regained herself once she realized what he was doing. ¡°Hmmmm¡­ You are correct about me enjoying these kinds of games¡­ But what makes you so sure that you are able to stay on the same playing field as the others who have already started the game before you?¡± (Harmoor) Once Harmoor said this, Thanatos stuck out his hand which Harmoor looked at intrigued. In an instant a large fire came out of his palm with lightning dance through the flames, surrounding the fire were belts of earth and water orbiting around the flame like rings around a planet, and at the same time a large amount of wind surrounded the whole system and compressed it into a ball. Harmoor became wide-eyed at what he had seen, as the young boy in front of him showed high levels of control with the five main elements of magic that most people would have to work decades to reproduce, and was able to utilize that kind of precision control in an instant. Despite how simple it may sound to make five different elements just appear around one¡¯s hand, it is actually extremely difficult. Each of the five main races had a large proficiency in one of the five elements, but for the other four elements that the race is not proficient in, it is exceedingly difficult to use. A person is able to use all of the different elements, but if the person who is using the specific element is not from the correct race, then the amount of effort needed in order to use the element is raised dramatically. The five races and their corresponding magic elements are as follows: Beastmen, who use water Draconians, who utilize fire Dwarves, who use earth Elves, who use the wind Humans, who use lightning For someone to be able to use all five kinds of magic at the same time instantly, and blend them together harmoniously, is something that is no simple task for even skilled practitioners. ¡°Ohoho, so it seems you are able to prove your worth¡­ But what about your sister over here?¡­¡± (Harmoor) As soon as he finished his sentence Shyelle replicated exactly what her brother did a moment earlier, as a result Harmoor¡¯s eyes nearly popped out of his skull in astonishment at the level of magic control of these two young siblings. ¡°Well¡­ It seems I have no reason to deny you admittance¡­ The entrance ceremony is tomorrow at 10am, try not to miss that deadline.¡± (Harmoor) With a joking wink at the end of his remark, Harmoor then ushered the two siblings out of his office after signing some paperwork with them, and ironing out details for some special considerations they requested. Once the siblings were gone, Harmoor found himself deep in thought about what would happen to his academy now that these two rare anomalies have arrived. ¡®They appeared to have made those balls containing all the elements with no effort at all¡­ This years game looks like it will be quite fun.¡¯ With a wild grin on his face, Harmoor thought about all the interesting things that these two new students may bring to his school starting tomorrow. Chapter - 3 After the meeting, outside of the administrations building stood a young man and young woman. The young man having short messy black hair, having black sclera instead of white in his eyes, red coloured irises, a handsome face, and a thin muscular build like that of a mixed-martial-artist. He stood around 1.8m tall and weighs about 75kg. The young woman has white skin, long golden-blond hair that flows straight down to her mid back, with blue eyes, a large bust, a curvaceous hour glass figure, and a beautiful complexion that could put angels to shame. She stands at about 1.5m tall and weighs about 50kg. These two are of course Thanatos and Shyelle respectively. Currently Thanatos and Shyelle are walking away from the academy while talking about what just occurred in the meeting as they head out to search for an inn to stay the night. ¡°Well that was a pain¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm? What was that ¡®Mr. You¡¯re-Not-Upset''?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°¡­ I¡¯m saying that man was a pain.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Well ya? That was pretty obvious wasn¡¯t it?¡± Shyelle asked with a face suggesting she doesn¡¯t see what he¡¯s getting at. ¡°What I¡¯m saying is that he will probably make life difficult¡­ And I really don¡¯t like it when things are difficult¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yeah, yeah. You¡¯re just lazy.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°And?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And what?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°You said I¡¯m lazy. What point are you trying to get at?¡­ We already know that¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Touch¨¦...¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Well, all that I¡¯m trying to say is that he better not be too much of a pain¡­ I really don¡¯t want to have to deal with him and then make things complicated for us.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°But if that happens, we can just go to school somewhere else right?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Hopefully¡­¡± (Thanatos) *** After talking about the Principle, the duo engaged in idle chit-chat while they searched for an inn. Once they found a two storey inn that looked like it would be suitable to stay the night, they decided to enter and get a room. As the two entered the building, they approached the counter where the receptionist was. Standing behind the counter was a red haired young woman with bright-green eyes, standing about 1.6m tall, and she had an alluring figure that would make most men drop their jaws at the mere sight of her. Once they reached the counter, the two then began to inquire for a room. ¡°Hello, can we get a room with two beds for the night please?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°One bed.¡± Shyelle said as she stared at her brother with a mischievous smile. ¡°Two.¡± (Thanatos) The young woman was slightly taken aback due to all the men who have approached her over the years because of her appearance, as this young man just payed it no mind as if he hadn¡¯t noticed. ¡°Su-sure. This way please.¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Thank you.¡± Thanatos thanked the woman and the two followed her to the second floor of the inn to get a room while Shyelle grumbled about their being two beds. After being shown a room with two beds Thanatos thanked the young woman once again and went inside to leave some of his belongings there. As the young woman was about to leave to go back downstairs, she was stopped by Shyelle suddenly grabbing hold of her arm. ¡°Don¡¯t even think of trying to seduce or get close to my brother.¡± Shyelle whispered into her ear then gave her a murderous gaze that clearly indicated she wouldn¡¯t allow anyone but herself to get close to Thanatos. The young woman then swallowed as a shiver ran down her spine and continued back downstairs while trying to act like nothing just happened. Shyelle then entered the room full of joy as if she never said anything and started clinging to Thanatos. ¡°Thana-nii! I don¡¯t know why you got two beds when you and I are gonna be sharing just the one.¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos sighed then picked her up, placed her on a bed, and then left to go straight to his own bed on the other side of the room. He then started to take off most of his clothes except for his underwear and dropped them on the floor, then he went into bed while thinking to himself. It was already 11pm, they would have to be at the school the next morning for the entrance ceremony 11 hours from now. Thanatos thought he would have had more time to do some errands but after the amount of time it took for the meeting to finish and to find a suitable inn, it was already really late and he just wanted to go to bed. Thanatos then heard the sound of Shyelle getting off her bed and starting take off all her clothes including her undergarments. ¡°You can stop right there and get back in your bed, its not going to happen. Plus I¡¯m really tired and would like to get as much sleep as possible, so please don¡¯t try anything.¡± (Thanatos) Once he said that he heard the sound of grumbling and Shyelle putting back on her undergarments before she went back into her bed to sleep. ¡®Now if only she won¡¯t just slip into my bed while I¡¯m asleep this could make for a perfect night¡¯ thought Thanatos as he had a wry smile on his face. He then closed his eyes and started drifting off to go to sleep. As soon as Thanatos fell asleep, Shyelle got up and checked the hall outside the door to be sure that the young woman from before wasn¡¯t around. Once she was sure that the young woman wasn¡¯t lurking around, she then went back into the room, locked the door, and then took off her undergarments before slipping into Thanatos¡¯s bed while she clung to him with a wide smile. *** Thanatos woke up the next morning at around 8:30am as he rubbed his eyes and looked around. Once he noticed the naked girl clinging to him like the world would end if she didn¡¯t, he let out a deep sigh. He then shook her shoulder to try and wake her up, but once he did he realized what he had done wrong and before he could so much as slap his forehead, she made her move. As soon as Thanatos¡¯s hand touched her shoulder, she jumped up onto Thanatos like a cat on a mouse. Immediately Thanatos found his hand that touched her shoulder on her breast, as she straddled him on his crotch with one of her hands on his chest keeping him pinned down, the other hand on top of his hand that was on her breast to keep it in place. Shyelle had an ear-to-ear grin as Thanatos almost never made a mistake except on incredibly rare occasions when it came to waking her up in the morning. Thanatos sighed and immediately after they both heard the door unlocking. The two of them turned their heads to look at the door as they saw the young woman from the previous night open it. As soon as the young woman saw the position the duo was in, her whole body turned beat red and she closed the door quickly as she exited. Thanatos sighed once again and decided to get up as he lifted the distracted Shyelle off his body. He then approached the door, opened it, and whistled to get the attention of the young woman. ¡°Hey, you gonna come back?¡± Thanatos said to the young woman who he could see was hiding around the corner. Once he said this he looked down and noticed himself in just his underwear and shrugged without giving it a second thought. As soon as the young woman came out from around the corner, she immediately turned bright red once again when she noticed Thanatos¡¯s thin, muscular figure, clad only in underwear. "G-Good morning.¡± (Young Woman) The young woman tried to avoid looking at him as much as possible as her eyes wandered along the room. When Thanatos noticed this he snapped his fingers at her to get her attention. Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. ¡°Whats wrong with you? Shouldn¡¯t you look at a person when talking to them?¡± Thanatos said with yet another sigh. ¡°S-Sorry for intruding on you earlier.¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Hm? Ah, actually that was good timing, you helped get her off of me. But what did you want to tell us so early in the morning?¡± (Thanatos) As soon as Thanatos inquired this, the young woman had a startled expression as she realized she hadn¡¯t done what she set out for earlier. ¡°O-Oh, right, I was going to tell you that breakfast was ready and that you ca-¡° (Young Woman) The young woman immediately cut her sentence short as she saw the bare-naked Shyelle get out of bed and start clinging to Thanatos in front of the door. ¡°Hey, go get dressed will you? It seems the young woman here has trouble speaking when seeing you in such a state.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh, sorry. I guess I didn¡¯t realize it¡­¡± Shyelle apologized to Thanatos as she sent another murderous gaze at the young woman, telling her not to get any ideas because of the state Thanatos was in. She then went back inside the room after giving a big hug to Thanatos in order to go get dressed. ¡°Well, as you were saying?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm? Ah, right¡­ Well, breakfast is read and you can come down and get some if you¡¯d like¡­¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Ah, thank you. Say, do you mind if we bring the food to our room to eat?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°N-No, not at all¡­¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Oh, well can you take me down there then? I¡¯d like to bring some up.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Huh? You¡¯re not gonna get dressed first?¡± said the young woman who seemed shocked, pleased, and flustered all at the same time. ¡°Then the food would get first wouldn¡¯t it? So can you please take me there now?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah¡­ Um¡­ Sure, follow me¡­¡± (Young Woman) The young woman then took him downstairs while stealing many occasional glances at his body on the way to get food. Once they arrived, Thanatos collected two bowls of porridge, some bread, and two glasses of water to drink with it. As soon as Thanatos finished collecting food for himself and Shyelle, the young woman takes him back to his room while stealing many looks at him on the way back. ¡°Please enjoy your meal.¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Thank you.¡± (Thanatos) The young woman turned and left after she opened the door for him and closed it once he entered. As soon as Thanatos entered the room, what he noticed was Shyelle laying naked in his bead while she held his clothes tightly in a ball against her stomach. Upon seeing this Thanatos¡¯s eye quivered for a moment before he sat the two trays he filled with breakfast on Shyelle¡¯s bed. ¡°Weren¡¯t you dressed when I left?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Mhmmm¡­ And why aren¡¯t you now?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Because I missed Thana-nii¡¯s smell and I couldn¡¯t get his scent very well off his clothes with the smell from my clothes being in the way!¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos¡¯s eye quivered for a brief moment once again and sighed for the umpteenth time in the past few days. ¡°So can I have my clothes back?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm¡­ You need to come over here to do that.¡± Shyelle said with a dangerous grin on her face. Thanatos decided to try and get this scene over with as painlessly and quickly as possible, so he headed over to her to get his clothes back. ¡°So may I have my clothes back now?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Mmmm¡­ mhm.¡± Shyelle said in response as she handed back his clothes with an innocent face. As soon as Thanatos grabbed his clothes from her, her hands immediately flew down to his underwear and pulled them down with lightning speed. As a result, Shyelle¡¯s eyes sparkled as she stared at Thanatos¡¯s genitalia which were directly in front of her eyes. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Are you happy now?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Delighted!¡± Shyelle responded with a smile so bright you¡¯d think she had died and gone to heaven. Thanatos placed his clothes on the floor, fixed his underwear, and then put his clothes on away from the bed. While he was putting his clothes on, he could see Shyelle pointed in his direction laying on her stomach with her eyes closed, as her feet kicked back and forth behind her. While she was doing so she had a big drooling smile as she doubtlessly was recalling the scene from just a moment ago. ¡°Hey, stop daydreaming, get dressed, and eat your breakfast before it gets cold.¡± Thanatos decided to scold her to try and get her to act properly. ¡°Mmmm¡­ Nope, I have to sit on Thana-nii¡¯s lap while he feeds me before I get dressed!¡± Shyelle replied with a stubborn tone as she turned her head away to the side. ¡°*Sigh* Fine, but we will need to get going soon, so you better get dressed right afterwards¡­¡± (Thanatos) Shyelle immediately became so happy that she practically glowed as she ran over to her bed and started patting where she wanted Thanatos to sit. Thanatos obliged as he sat down where she wanted and she immediately sat down on his lap. However, there was one problem with how she did it. Shyelle sat down astride Thanatos¡¯s lap with her legs curving around his waist to wrap around him, causing Thanatos to once again sigh at his younger sister. ¡°Before you ask, you¡¯re getting the food off the spoon, not out of my mouth.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°¡­ Fine¡­¡± Shyelle reluctantly agreed with a pout as to not push her luck. Once Shyelle was fed after a long series of ¡®Aaan¡¯s¡¯, she got up after trying to kiss Thanatos only to be evaded, and then put on her undergarments and clothes. The two then went to checkout at the counter after collecting there things where they saw the young woman¡¯s father, and then saw the young woman once again at the door. As soon as the young woman saw Thanatos, she started blushing due to remembering his earlier appearance, which caused Shyelle to glare at her. ¡°Hey, heading out?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes, I signed up for the magic academy¡­ I¡¯m going to be starting today.¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Ah, us too. What level is the magic class you¡¯re taking?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°A-Ah, t-the highest one.¡± the young woman replied while looking down at the floor trying to hide her blush as she was tapping the floor behind her with her foot. ¡°Oh really? Us too, though I wouldn¡¯t pin you as a high-level mage¡­¡± (Thanatos) As soon as the young woman heard that they would be in the same class, her face instantly shot up with a look of delight poorly hidden on it. ¡°Th-Then, would you like to walk to the entrance ceremony with me?¡± (Young Woman) ¡°Sure. By the way¡­ I noticed you haven¡¯t given us you¡¯re name yet?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah! Sorry about that, my name is Irene, Irene Corvix.¡± (Irene) ¡°Nice to meet you Irene, I¡¯m Thanatos and this is my sister Shyelle.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°O-Oh, Sister? Nice to meet you Shyelle.¡± (Irene) ¡°Nice to meet you too.¡± Shyelle replied with an ice-cold smile that showed her dislike of the woman. ¡°Well, shall we get going?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°A-Ah, yes¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Lets go!¡± Shyelle yelled out as she ran to Thanatos and grabbed tightly onto his arm, sticking it right between her cleavage. While she did so she showed a winning smile towards Irene and then looked away, once she looked away her entire personality changed as if it were only Thanatos and herself once again, completely ignoring Irene¡¯s existence entirely. Then, they all made their way off towards the academy together. Chapter - 4 While walking down the road to get to the academy from the inn, Irene was sending envious glances at Shyelle because of her closeness with Thanatos. This led to Shyelle further increase her grip on Thanatos¡¯s arm, followed by her sending Irene a look that gave the impression of someone being overprotective of their property. This was all because Thanatos belonged only to HER, and no one else. Shyelle would never allow anyone to have HER older brother. When Irene saw the look that Shyelle was sending her, she decided it was time for her to try to make a move on Thanatos as well. Irene then grabbed hold of Thanatos¡¯s unoccupied arm and gripped it tight while pressing it into her cleavage like Shyelle did. While she held his arm, she also made her whole body shiver in an attempt to use body heat as an excuse for her actions. ¡°Its cold this morning, you don¡¯t mind do you?¡± Irene said while looking up to him with puppy dog eyes. Thanatos looked down at her with uninterested eyes and acted completely unfazed by her attempts to flaunt her sexuality. ¡°Not really, do whatever you want.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Can I do whatever I want!?!?¡± Shyelle shouted her question at Thanatos with a wide smile, and if one looked carefully a little bit of drool coming out of the corner of her lips. ¡°With you it entirely depends on what you want¡­¡± (Thanatos) As a result of his careless response to Irene¡¯s question, Irene and Shyelle began to increasingly tighten their grips on Thanatos, and because of this he is beginning to have trouble walking. Now that Irene has overcome the mental image of Thanatos in his underwear from earlier in the morning, she lost all the shyness gained from the event, and instead feels a need to get him to chase after her like every other young man does. After walking around for a long time, the trio finally made their way to the front entrance gate to the academy grounds. Standing at the gate was a secretary looking woman with tied up brown hair, glasses, brown eyes, standing around 1.7m tall, while wearing a business-like suit. In her hand she was holding a clipboard with a piece of paper on it, and she kept continuously looking between the piece of paper and the students flowing through the gate as if comparing them. Thanatos snuck up behind the secretary woman and peaked over her shoulder to find a picture of himself and Shyelle on it, along with some written instructions on the page as well. Thanatos then backed up a few steps with the girls still clinging to his arms, and he cleared his throat to get the secretary woman¡¯s attention. ¡°Ahem¡± (Thanatos) The secretary woman turned around and became wide eyed as she saw the two people she was tasked with finding standing directly in front of her as if they were waiting on her. ¡°Ah, sorry, I didn¡¯t notice you there. You are Thanatos and Shyelle I presume? And who is this other young woman with you?¡± (Secretary Woman) ¡°Yes, I¡¯m Thanatos¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Shyelle.¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos and Shyelle shake hands with the secretary woman and she then turns her head towards Irene with a questioning gaze. ¡°Ah, oh, hello, I¡¯m Irene.¡± (Irene) Irene nervously puts out her hand and shakes hands with the secretary woman. ¡°We¡¯ve told you who we are, but who are you?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah, my apologies once again. My name is Ms. Alexa Thynax, and I am the teacher in charge of the highest level magic class here at the academy. Principle Harmoor sent me to guide the two of you to the entrance hall for the opening ceremony, but I wasn¡¯t informed there would be another person coming with you¡­ But I suppose it won¡¯t hurt to add one more person to the company.¡± (Thynax) Thanatos shrugged as if the conversation has nothing to do with him and gestures towards the school through the gate. ¡°Lead the way.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah yes, follow me please.¡± (Thynax) Ms. Thynax then led the trio through the school grounds towards the main building. Once in the main building, she then proceeded with the trio towards an incredibly large set of double doors that look to be about 20m tall and about 4m wide on each side. As the group approaches the doors they begin to slightly open, just wide enough for the group to all enter together at once. Once they walked through the doors the first thing that greeted them was a massive stage in the middle of the room, and as they looked around the room they could see that along the walls were rows upon rows of seats like those around a colosseum. The floor seemed to be just earthen ground and the entire area was encompassed in a giant dome. Ms. Thynax then took the trio to the section with the best view of the stage, for them to watch the opening ceremony, and asked what appeared to be a servant to get an extra chair since Irene would be joining them. As soon as the servant got back, he had a wry expression on his face as he noticed that Shyelle wasn¡¯t even using her chair, and instead was sitting on Thanatos¡¯s lap in his seat. Ms. Thynax then apologized to the man and told him that he could take the chair back to where he got it from as they wouldn¡¯t be needing it. Once the servant left and the ceremony was soon to start, Thanatos and Shyelle began to whisper to each other while Shyelle was giggling on his lap. Irene who was watching them was sending alternating glances between Thanatos¡¯s lap and Shyelle. Irene continuously gave looks of desire towards Thanatos¡¯s lap, but she also kept looking up towards Shyelle with glances of envy and hatred as she had taken the spot that she had wanted. Every now and then Thanatos would start to feel Shyelle wiggling her ass against his crotch, and would repeatedly warn her that if she didn¡¯t stop, then she would have to switch spots with Irene. Due to his threats of making her lose her spot on his lap, she would immediately stop her wiggling. But after a few moments she would start back up again and the entire process would be repeated anew. Finally, the ceremony was about to start, and Harmoor could be seen coming out onto the stage. As soon as Thanatos saw him, his atmosphere became cooler and his expression darkened. Shyelle who noticed this decided to stop sexually harassing her beloved brother, and to pay attention to the ceremony. Irene who had never met Harmoor before was puzzled by Thanatos¡¯s reaction and decided to ask him. ¡°Is there something wrong with the Principle?¡± (Irene) ¡°Yeah, he¡¯s a real pain in the ass.¡± Thanatos said cold and bluntly. Irene who had never seen Thanatos acting coldly before, as opposed to his normal passive, lazy, uninterested self that seemed unshakable, decided to accept his words as truth and watch carefully at what was going to happen. Secretly, as everyone present was watching Harmoor approach a podium that was set up for him to speak in front of everyone, one can notice that Shyelle is not focusing on Harmoor specifically. Instead, as a result of him having irritated her brother, she was currently focusing on changing the ground that was in front of him. Even though she knew it was juvenile to make him trip while he was walking to the podium, she also knew that it was the only thing she could do without getting in serious trouble. Thanatos, who noticed what she was trying to do, immediately went to prevent her from trying. ¡°Stop, look more carefully. You¡¯re not the only one trying, and if you were to push it you might wreck the whole arena.¡± (Thanatos) Shyelle, not understanding what he meant, then began to look around the arena. All around the arena she could see multiple holes in the ground created from Harmoor firing the casters magic right back at them, all the people who tried to trip him like Shyelle was going to do ended up in a massive hole in the ground. Shyelle immediately became wide-eyed at the amount of people of various races, not only dwarves, who felt the need to play a little prank on the man who irritated her brother. ¡°It looks like he¡¯s pissed off a lot of people, that or people just want to make him look more like a clown than he already does for no reason.¡± (Thanatos) Once Harmoor arrives at the podium, the entire arena can hear him clear his throat. This is due to him using wind magic to manipulate the air waves to amplify his voice, making it so his voice will spread out evenly throughout the stadium, and so that he won¡¯t need to talk any louder than if he were right in front of any single person present. ¡°Ahem.¡± (Harmoor) As soon as Harmoor cleared his throat, the entire arena went silent and everyone gave their undivided attention. ¡°Well then, lets get started shall we?¡± Harmoor addressed the crowd while giving his usual nonchalant smile. ¡°To start off, congratulations to all of you here today for getting accepted into the academy! Albeit there were a few last minute admittances, but everything has been sorted out in the end.¡± (Harmoor) When Thanatos heard this, his atmosphere grew even colder around him, as you could see small sparks occurring in his eyes. Thanatos wanted his sister to have a normal school life, so by Harmoor talking about them in the entrance ceremony, they could gain too much attention and their plans would be ruined. ¡°Now, I would like to take a moment of your time to discuss some of the rules here at the academy.¡± Harmoor said as he turned his gaze directly to Thanatos and Shyelle. ¡°First, there will be no fighting outside of an arena, and if you want to use an arena for fighting another student, you must first get teacher permission while the fight needs to be observed by said teacher. Second, students are allowed to fight with teachers for sparring practice in the arena as well, but there must be another teacher present to observe the match. And thirdly, there will be ranking matches held to show where every single person in the academy stands in terms of their magical ability, and students are not able to get out of ranking matches except in the case of severe illness or severe injury.¡± (Harmoor) As soon as Harmoor decreed that there will be ranking matches to show who is the most powerful, Thanatos¡¯s eyes gained more sparks and he began to emit an intense aura. If one were to get too close to him, they just might pass out due to the incredible thickness and pressure of the aura he was emitting. If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. Irene and Ms. Thynax who noticed Thanatos¡¯s darkening mood, became pale faced and wide-eyed as they looked at him in astonishment. However, Shyelle, who is sitting on his lap, is just swinging her legs around and humming while acting as if nothing is happening. When Irene was about to attempt to talk to Thanatos to try to calm him down, Shyelle instantly shot her a cautionary glance that said she should not approach him at all. Irene, who had her mouth half-open, instantly closed it while swallowing, and returned to watching Harmoor nervously. ¡°For now, those are the rules outside of the ones that should be common sense. Since you all have been admitted to this academy, I would assume that you have common sense enough to follow the rules here. Those who do not follow the rules will be dealt with accordingly by the academy¡¯s staff.¡± As Harmoor says this he runs a cautioning gaze over all the students in attendance. ¡°Well, that will be all for now. You can all wait outside in the halls where there will be papers posted on the walls with the class levels on them. The teachers who belong to the posted classes will be at their respective signs in 20 minutes in order to pick you up. As of now, you are all excused to go wait in the hall for your teachers. Good day to you all.¡± (Harmoor) After the ceremony finished and Harmoor went offstage, Thanatos calmed down and his atmosphere was returned to what it was. ¡°Sorry about that. Do you think you could please guide us to where the rest of our class is?¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos quickly apologized to Irene and Ms. Thynax, then asked his new teacher to escort him to their classmates. Ms. Thynax, who was still a little flustered from his earlier behaviour, quickly escorted the three students to their classmates immediately. Since all members of the class were already present and waiting at the sign, Ms. Thynax decided to guide them all to the classroom. Once they arrived she opened the door and ushered everyone inside. ¡°This is where you will be attending class for the year. Now if you would all please sit down, we will begin introducing ourselves.¡± (Thynax) ¡°My name is Ms. Thynax, I am a human, and I will be our teacher for the year. It is nice to meet you.¡± After Ms. Thynax finished speaking, Irene stood up quickly to introduce herself. ¡°My name is Irene Corvix, I¡¯m 17 years old and I am human. Its a pleasure to meet you all.¡± (Irene) When Irene finished her speech, she looked around the room and found all the men present acting like they normally do, practically drooling over her. That is, all the men except for Thanatos who was currently looking at Shyelle beside him. As Irene walked back to her seat, she flashed a glare at Shyelle and sat down beside Thanatos, then she began to continuously inch closer towards him. Shyelle who noticed this, decided that she should get her introduction over with so she can attempt to remove Irene from her brother¡¯s side. ¡°Hellow, my name is Shyelle LaFluer, I am 17 years old and human. Also, if anyone of you girls here attempt to seduce or get close to my brother, I¡¯ll kill you.¡± As Shyelle was threatening her classmates with a smile on her face, she manipulated the air around Thanatos so that the sound waves would not travel through, making him unable to hear her threat towards them. After Shyelle introduced herself, she walked back to Thanatos with a big smile on her face and sat down next to him. But once she had sat down, Thanatos stood up while sighing so that he could quickly finish his introduction. ¡°My name is Thanatos Yama, I¡¯m 17 years old and human. If anyone here attempts to harm my sister, I will massacre you.¡± Like Shyelle did before him, as Thanatos introduced himself, he manipulated the air around Shyelle to prevent her from hearing his threat. Thanatos then went and sat down in his seat, then, Shyelle immediately got up and sat on his lap. After the trio finished their introductions, everyone was looking around awkwardly at one another. Then, after waiting for a short while, the other students began to introduce themselves to one another. Once everyone had introduced themselves to the class, Ms. Thynax began to speak to them once more. ¡°Okay, now that everyone has introduced themselves, we¡¯re going to go to the student dormitories and assign rooms. Once you have been assigned your room, you will have 30 minutes to get settled in before we send someone to collect you. The person who is retrieving you will escort you back to the arena we began in. Once everyone is in the arena, each of you will fight against a designated parter who is appointed by me, so that way I can get a grasp of each of your strengths and weaknesses.¡± (Thynax) *** After the introductions there were several other teachers that came to help bring the students to each of their rooms. Thanatos and Shyelle stayed alone with Ms. Thynax and followed her to a special building for students. In the building Thanatos and Shyelle will be sharing a room to themselves which is not usually allowed, and because of this, Thanatos had to smooth out a lot of details with Harmoor during their interview. Once they were shown their room, Ms. Thynax, who was about to leave, stopped to say one thing first. ¡°I will be back in half an hour to collect you, please don¡¯t due anything naughty while I¡¯m gone.¡± Said Ms. Thynax with a wink as she shut the door with the duo inside. ¡°Well, you heard her, don¡¯t do anything naughty. Especially while I go to take a bath¡­¡± (Thanatos) As soon as Thanatos said he was about to go take a bath, Shyelle who was looking around the room, immediately snapped around to stare at Thanatos with a massive grin on her face. Regretting what may be to come, Thanatos enters their bathroom, fills up the tub with water, and undresses before getting in. ¡°Ahhhh¡­ It feels good to relax¡­¡± (Thanatos) Right when Thanatos finished his sentence, the bathroom door slammed open and a naked Shyelle appeared. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ So what do you want?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Well we¡¯re gonna wash each other of course, right!? I mean you like to take long baths to relax, and if you do that then I won¡¯t have time to take one too right?¡± As Shyelle was saying this she had a massive grin on her face once again. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ So be it, but since you just said yourself that I like to take long baths to relax, don¡¯t try anything¡­¡± (Thanatos) When Thanatos finished what he was saying, Shyelle appeared to be so filled with happiness that it looked like she could explode at any second. Shyelle dived right into the tub and pinned Thanatos down, and while she did that she managed to get into a straddling position on his waist at the same time. ¡°I said no trying anything, now get off me so I can enjoy my bath.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ooooo, fine¡­¡± Shyelle got off of him and looked down as her face continued to be filled with a massive smile. Thanatos who realized that Shyelle was staring at his penis, just shrugged and began to wash himself. Shyelle who noticed Thanatos beginning to wash himself thought up another idea while sitting in the tub with him. ¡°Thana! Stop! I¡¯ll do it!¡± Shyelle proclaimed with certainty in her voice. ¡°You¡¯ll do it how?¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Do the details really matter!?!?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Um¡­ Yeah, they do.¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos never stopped washing himself throughout his conversation with Shyelle, so after a few minutes, all he had left to do was wash his hair. Shyelle, who somehow had already finished before him, got out of the tub while pouting. ¡°Don¡¯t think of pulling that naked stunt of yours again, go get dressed so we can wait for Thynax to show back up again.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Fiiiiiiine¡­¡± Shyelle replied while pouting even further as she left through the door. Once Thanatos finished washing his hair he got out of the tub and towelled himself off. He then threw the towel into a laundry basket and went back into his room. As he approached the closet to put on his new school uniform the academy provided, he heard a knock on the door. Thanatos stopped what he was doing and went over to the door opening it nonchalantly while completely naked, and all the while Shyelle never took her eyes off his dangling manhood. Right when he opened the door, he saw Ms. Thynax once again but this time her entire face was red as she stared at the young man in front of her. ¡°Wo-Would you mind putting on some clothes before going to the arena? Its time for everyone to gather.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm? Already? I thought we had more time?¡± (Thanatos) After Thanatos said this he turned around leaving the door wide open, and walked over to the closet to begin getting dressed. ¡°Yes, originally you should have, but it seems the other students got to their rooms much quicker than us so you had less time to relax unfortunately.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Ah, so thats it. And you know its rude to not look at someone when you¡¯re talking to them right? We haven¡¯t done anything to the room so there¡¯s no need to keep on looking around it so much.¡± As Thanatos said, currently Ms. Thynax¡¯s eyes were wandering around the room desperately to find something to stare at, that way she didn¡¯t look at the young man in front of her. ¡°That would be more simple if you weren¡¯t naked you know?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Oh? But I don¡¯t really care, you can look as much as you want¡­ It won¡¯t really bother me¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh¡­¡± (Thynax) Once Thanatos finished dressing, him and Shyelle followed Ms. Thynax back to the arena they started in. What they found there were their 30 other classmates waiting around in order for them to start. ¡°Okay, now that we¡¯re all here, we can start.¡± Ms. Thynax said with a hint of a mischievous smile on her face. Chapter - 5 ¡°The first match will be between Irene Corvix and Louise Stormcrest!¡± (Thynax) Once he heard Ms. Thynax proclaim the participants for the match, Thanatos felt a bit of curiosity as to what would happened. After looking around the arena he found Irene standing alone with sheer confidence on her face. ¡°Everyone who is not in the match please proceed to the stands in order to watch the match.¡± (Thynax) Thanatos went to the stands with Shyelle and sat down with Shyelle on his lap. Once everyone had made their way to the stands, Thanatos could see Irene, Ms. Thynax, and a Beastwoman standing in the middle of the room. The Beastwoman, or Louise Stormcrest, had silver-white hair, a sleek yet bushy tail, and wolf ears coming out of her head. Louise stood at around 1.6m tall, the same height as Irene, and had a slightly muscular yet curvaceous figure that attracts the eyes of men, but also gives them a warning that she can more than defend herself if they try anything on her. After checking with the two young women too see if they were ready to fight, Ms. Thynax decided to start the match. ¡°You may begin!¡± As soon as Ms. Thynax said this, she rushed away from them at a lightning fast pace towards the stands then sat down next to Thanatos and Shyelle. ¡°This should be interesting, don¡¯t you think?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hopefully, I¡¯m tired and this seems troublesome¡­ We should have just shown up when it was time for out matches¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°But then you would just sleep all day and never go to class! If you don¡¯t find anyone interesting, then you won¡¯t feel a need to go to class, right?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Err¡­ Thats debatable¡­ If you went I might go¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh¡­ Do you two always act like this?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm? Did you say something?¡± Thanatos and Shyelle replied to Ms. Thynax in-sync with one another. ¡°¡­ Never mind¡­¡± (Thynax) The rules were explained right before the match had begun. Both participants would fight one another, trying to either get their opponent to admit defeat, or to render them unconscious, in order to win the match. You are not allowed to try to kill your opponent, and you are also not allowed to severely injure your opponent either. ¡°Well, hopefully something interesting happens¡­ Oh, and Shy.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Wake me up if something exciting starts to happen, or if it¡¯s one of our turns.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Will do!¡± Shyelle replied with a playful solute to signify she understood what he was asking. As Shyelle and Ms. Thynax turned their attention towards the match, Thanatos leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes in order to get some rest. In the stage area, Irene and Louise could be seen circling around each other while maintaining a constant distance of about 50m. The entire time they circled each other, neither one of them took their eyes off of the other. All of a sudden, Irene and Louise stopped walking. They had been sizing each other up, and at the same time they had been waiting for the other make a foolish move or jump into the fight carelessly. Once they determined that the other wouldn¡¯t try to do anything foolish, they both stopped in place and stared at each other, waiting for the other to move. Then, at the same time, both of them decided it was time to make their move. Irene stretched one of her hands forward then suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out towards Louise. Louise responded by crouching down and covering herself in a dome of pure water, that way, the lightning both wouldn¡¯t conduct electricity, and wouldn¡¯t strike her either. Irene then rushed towards Louise with her hand pointed like a spear as lightning danced around it, and pierced through the water. Louise who had seen this, opened a hole in the opposite side of the dome, and quickly jumped out of it. As Louise jumped out of the dome, she sent the water that was removed from the dome rushing towards Irene. The water bent into a V-shape in the air as it went to slice Irene. However, Irene anticipated a counter attack and immediately fell to the floor. When she fell to the floor, both of her hands slammed against the ground and pillars of earth shot up from the stage floor a little away from her, stopping the blades of water in their tracks at the last possible second. When Shyelle saw the pillars of earth shoot from the ground, she immediately turned around and started lightly shaking Thanatos¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Hm? What happened?¡± (Thanatos) Shyelle quickly Thanatos about Irene using earth magic and how she used it with perfect timing in order to stop the water blades from attacking her. Thanatos looked at Irene with a quizzical eye, and began to watch the match while being slightly interested. Irene looked over towards Louise who had her jaw dropped in surprise. Louise quickly recovered herself and began to launch more water blades towards Irene. Irene once again stopped all the water blades with earth pillars and ran towards Louise with both of her hands shaped like spears with lightning dancing around them. Louise determined that the match would become a stalemate if both parties tried to attack each other from afar, so she decided to join Irene in a close combat fight. She raised both her hands into fists and two rings of water appeared on the sides of each hand. The water rings were interlocking each other while moving at incredibly high speeds, as a result, if she were to land a punch on Irene then the water would cut through her like two vicious chainsaws. Both Irene and Louise determined that they would be unable to take a hit from the other without taking serious damage, so they would have to evade their opponent¡¯s attacks at all costs. Once Irene arrived in front of Louise, she began to repeatedly launch her hands towards Louise¡¯s torso in a continuous barrage of attacks. Louise narrowly dodged each one of Irene¡¯s assaults, biding her time to attack until Irene has exhausted herself. As Irene was beginning to slow down and show more openings in her assault, Louise decided it was time to for her to attack. While dodging one of Irene¡¯s strikes, Louise ducked down to the other side and moved to throw a punch right at Irene¡¯s side! However, Irene once again anticipated Louise''s move, and the lightning in Irene''s other hand shot out towards Louise! Irene had never fired off the lightning that was on her hands at Louise before, so she had discarded the possibility of her doing so until now. As a result, Louise was struck in the middle of her chest with the bolt of lightning and fell to the ground while spasming uncontrollably. Ms. Thynax determined that Louise would be unable to fight, and immediately stood up from her seat and shouted. ¡°The match is over! The winner for the first match is Irene Corvix!¡± (Thynax) As she declared this, medics could be seen running into the arena, placing Louise on a stretcher, and rushing back out again. ¡°The next match will between Shyelle LaFluer and Bill Quinn!¡± Thynax said while looking the Shyelle with a mischievous grin. Shyelle turned around, kissed Thanatos on the cheek, and hopped off his lap. ¡°Looks like its my turn, be back soon! And don¡¯t let that woman take my seat!¡± Shyelle said as she ran off to the stage, giving the returning Irene a pointed gaze along the way. ¡°Well, I better go down there to start the match. I¡¯ll be back in a second.¡± Ms. Thynax said as she departed for the stage just after Shyelle. As the two were going down to the stage area, Irene had just made her way back and was standing in front of Thanatos. ¡°Hey! How¡¯d you like the match!?¡± (Irene) ¡°I missed the beginning, Shyelle woke me up after you supposedly first used earth magic. Other than that, you got lucky when your lightning accidentally misfired at the end when you lost control of it due to surprise¡­¡± Thanatos said with a criticizing gaze. ¡°Uhhh, uhhh¡­ What are you talking about, lost control?¡± Irene responded as she started to break out in a cold sweat. ¡°I could tell by the expression on your face and how you reacted around and during the time it happened. You were just as surprised as that Louise girl was when you zapped her.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ooooo¡­ Well, aside from that¡­ How was I?¡± (Irene) Thanatos looked at her, shrugged, then turned his attention towards the stage area. ¡°*Sigh* Well, whatever¡­¡± Irene said as she went and sat on Thanatos¡¯s lap. ¡°Hm? What do you think you¡¯re doing?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh? I didn¡¯t think you¡¯d mind¡­¡± Irene replied with a dangerous grin while wiggling her ass against his crotch like Shyelle did earlier. ¡°I don¡¯t, but Shyelle is going to freak out when she gets back and discovers her supposed seat was taken.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Well, whatever happens, happens.¡± Irene replied while her grin turned even more dangerous. Thanatos once again shrugged and looked at Shyelle¡¯s opponent who just arrived on the stage with disgust in his eyes. Shyelle¡¯s opponent was a hunch-backed boy with a pitiful appearance, about 1.7m tall, with greasy short black hair, and green eyes that were filled with lust. The boy had some drool coming out of his mouth just like whenever Shyelle starts to get aroused around Thanatos, and he was rubbing his hands together in a scheming manner. Thanatos looked over to Shyelle who had a revolted look on her face just from looking at the boy. He could also feel Shyelle¡¯s seething rage all the way from the stands, as she just went from sitting in her favourite spot, to having to get up to deal with some lustful boy that she wouldn¡¯t touch with a ten-foot-pole. Ms. Thynax who sensed the mood, decided she better start this match quickly before Shyelle snaps and lashes out at her as well for making her participate in this fight. ¡°Ahem, well, are you ready?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Lets get this over with quickly.¡± Shyelle replied with her mood worsening by the second, causing Ms. Thynax to swallow in nervousness. The lustful boy nodded his head towards Ms. Thynax then turned his head back towards Shyelle so he could stare at her again. ¡°Well, you may begin!¡± Ms. Thynax yelled out, while she muttered to herself her feelings of sorrow for the lustful boy. Before Ms. Thynax could even get back to the stands, Shyelle had made her move. Shyelle lifted both her arms and shot out dozens of lightning bolts, striking the boy all over his body. At the same time, pillars of earth shot up from the ground striking the boy in various places of his body. Unfortunately for the lustful boy, the spot that Shyelle appeared to concentrate most of her attacks on, was the boy¡¯s genitalia, which made many male members of the audience cringe in pain and horror. As soon as Shyelle¡¯s barrage of attacks finished, Ms. Thynax quickly announced the obvious result of the match. ¡°Winner! Shyelle LaFluer wins in her match against Bill Quinn!¡± Ms. Thynax proclaimed loudly as a medical team rushed in at a pace far superior to the last time. Thanatos who watched the medics poor into the arena and carefully move the boy, noticed some of the men were covering the genitals, which caused him to chuckle to himself. Irene who had never seen Thanatos humoured by anything, looked at him with a quizzical expression. ¡°Whats so funny?¡± Irene asked curiously. ¡°It¡¯s the medics, even they know not to try anything on her now. Look at how some of them are covering their crotch and avoiding Shyelle as much as possible.¡± Thanatos replied with an amused expression. Thanatos knew that things would develop like this. Every time him and Shyelle went into a city, there would always be people who were overcome with lust and met the same fate. This time however, Shyelle greatly toned down her usual barrage as to draw a bit less attention to herself. Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions. As Shyelle made her way back from the stage and approached Thanatos and Irene, she shot Irene a ferocious and angry gaze which caused her to flinch. ¡°You¡¯re in my spot.¡± Shyelle told Irene coldly. Irene, after a moment, recovered herself and decided to respond in kind. ¡°You weren¡¯t here, therefore, it isn¡¯t your spot anymore. But it looks like the seats next to Thanatos are open.¡± Irene replied with a mischievous grin. ¡°Humph. Fine, but I¡¯ll remember this.¡± Shyelle said before switching her gaze to her brother. ¡°Also, didn¡¯t I say to not let this woman take MY spot?¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos shrugged and decided to play both dumb and innocent. ¡°*Sigh* Well I can¡¯t really stay mad at you¡­ But SHE is a different story¡­ Hm¡­ Well, do you want me to wake you up under the same reasons as last time?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Please and thank you.¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos then closed his eyes and went back to sleep again. Irene looked at Thanatos dumbfounded as he just fell asleep so easily while she sat atop his lap. ¡®How dare he! How can he ignore ME! I mean, I¡¯m practically throwing myself at this guy and nothing seems to work! Does he swing the other way or something!? UGH!¡¯ Irene thought to herself while in distress over the boy who seemed to be immune to her advances. ¡°No matter how much you try, its not going to work. I¡¯ve been trying for years, trust me, he¡¯s not anywhere near as easy as other guys.¡± Shyelle told the confused girl who was sitting on top of her brother. ¡°What do you mean it won¡¯t work!? Just whats with this guy anyways!? Is he gay or something!?¡± Irene replied while infuriated. ¡°Nope, he¡¯s not gay. He¡¯s just too lazy and doesn¡¯t care about anything really¡­ Also it would require him to put in effort to actually be interested in a girl, let alone sleep with one¡­ But you¡¯re lucky you know¡­¡± Shyelle explained to the confused girl who still looked bewildered. ¡°Lucky how!? You just said this guy is so lazy that he won¡¯t even put in the effort to be interested in any girls!¡± Irene shouted back at Shyelle. ¡°Hm.. Thats true but, he¡¯s already a little curious about you. He told me to wake him up if something interesting happens or if its one of our turns to fight. When I woke him up during your match, he didn¡¯t go back to sleep so¡­ That means he is at least a bit curious about you.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Oh? So he at least acknowledges I have some skill huh!?¡± Irene replied with a triumphant look on her face. ¡°Well¡­ some I guess¡­ But I only said he was a little bit curious about you¡­ I never said it was as a woman¡­ He doesn¡¯t really care about that, he just lives to enjoy himself¡­ Women could throw themselves at him all their lives and he wouldn¡¯t do a thing to them, he would just find it to be too much effort and he wouldn¡¯t want to have to deal with them afterwards¡­ Sure there''s also more to it than that, but thats the gist of it¡­¡± Shyelle finished explaining so she could pay attention to what was happening on stage. ¡°So you¡¯re saying its a fruitless effort huh?¡± (Irene) ¡°More than likely, yes. Well, if you forced yourself on him he probably wouldn¡¯t resist as long as he doesn¡¯t have to do anything¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Hm¡­¡± (Irene) Irene began to think to herself of several different way to seduce Thanatos for later in order to make him notice her, not even realizing how easy of a woman that made her appear to be. As Thanatos slept, the matches continued on until every single one happened except for his. All students needed to remain in the arena until all matches were done, that way, they could learn from the other matches on how they could improve. When the match before his was about to end, Shyelle decided to wake him up. ¡°Hm?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hey, your match is about to start soon, this one is almost over.¡± (Shyelle) Irene who had been watching the match looked at Shyelle bewildered, as it seemed like an even fight to her. ¡°Huh? What do you mean its almost over?¡± Irene asked her while being puzzled. ¡°Watch carefully, you¡¯ll see.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Ah, so you¡¯re back, huh?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°I¡¯ve been here during every match¡­ If you didn¡¯t sleep through them all you would have known that.¡± Ms. Thynax replied while scolding him. Thanatos just shrugged and looked rubbed Shyelle¡¯s head as thanks for waking him up, causing her to smile radiantly. ¡°So what am I supposed to see while watching carefully?¡± (Irene) Just as Irene says this, Thanatos looks in the ring to see two humans fighting each other, one of which launches a lightning bolt at the other, finishing the match. ¡°Huh!?¡± (Irene) ¡°See, it¡¯s over¡± (Thanatos) ¡°You just woke up and you just saw the last like two seconds! Don¡¯t act like you¡¯ve been watching the entire time only to chip in at the end!¡± (Irene) ¡°*Shrugging* Ah well, can you please get off? I supposedly have my match next.¡± Thanatos asked Irene who was still sitting on his lap. ¡°Hm¡­ Nope, not unless you go out with me for dinner.¡± Irene replied while trying to make the best of the situation. ¡°Ugh¡­ Shyelle, please?¡± Thanatos asked while looking over to his sister for help. ¡°Gladly.¡± Shyelle said with a huge smile that made Irene shiver. Shyelle got up, walked over to Irene, put her hand on Irene¡¯s shoulder, and started running low voltage lightning through her. Irene started spasming uncontrollably on Thanatos¡¯s lap, and before she lost control of her bodily functions, Shyelle picked her up and moved her to a different seat. ¡°Thanks.¡± Thanatos said while rubbing his sister¡¯s head gently. ¡°Any time!¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos looked over to the stage which Ms. Thynax had already made her way over to and had finished declaring the outcome of the match. ¡°The final fight will be between Thanatos Yama, and Susan Fireheart!¡± (Thynax) Thanatos sighed as he made his way over to the stage. ¡°I¡¯ll be back soon.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And I¡¯ll be waiting.¡± (Shyelle) When Thanatos made his way to the stage, he found that he was partnered with a draconian woman. She had long and lush red hair flowing straight down to her lower back, red serpentine eyes, horns growing out on both sides of her head, smooth looking skin, a nice hourglass figure, and a pair of large bat-like wings growing out of her back. She was about 1.75m tall, just a bit shorter than Thanatos, and she seemed to not have an ounce of fat on her aside from her pert posterior and her well-sized breasts. ¡°*Sigh* Lets get this over with shall we? I want to get some badly needed sleep.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°You just slept for the past few hours through all the matches!¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm¡­ Only a few hours huh?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh, you were asleep too? I had some random girl poking me telling me it was my turn since I was the only one who hadn¡¯t gone yet.¡± (Susan) ¡°Yeah, it seemed like too much effort to watch all the matches, so I asked my sister to wake me up if something interesting happened or if it were one of our turns.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oooo¡­ I should have thought of that¡­ Then I wouldn¡¯t have had some random person poking me¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Um¡­ As much as I hate to intrude on your conversation about sleep¡­ Can we start the match now?¡± Ms. Thynax asked while puzzled about how the unenergetic Thanatos seemed to be quite content with his current conversation. ¡°I suppose so, shall we talk after the fight?¡± Susan answers Ms. Thynax then asks Thanatos with interest present on her face. ¡°*Shrugging* I suppose, and I guess you can start the fight now.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°The final fight shall now¡­ Begin!¡± Ms. Thynax yells to the crowd while rushing off. ¡°Yeesh, did you need to be so loud? We just woke up you know?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes, I must agree with him¡­¡± Susan says while shaking her head in agreement with Thanatos. ¡°It¡¯s so you two lazy people can WAKE UP! Now start fighting already!¡± Ms. Thynax yells at them in response from the stands. ¡°Ugh¡­ So troublesome¡­ Well¡­ Lets get this over with¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°No hard feelings whatever the outcome right? Its nice to meet someone with the same mentality as me.¡± (Susan) Thanatos nods in agreement then sits on the ground. ¡°After you.¡± (Thanatos) Susan opens her hand thats resting at her side, turning it to point towards Thanatos, and a huge fireball comes out of it rushing towards Thanatos. Right as the fireball is about to hit him, Thanatos yawns and swats the fireball away with the back of his hand. Susan looks at him with wide eyes as he just easily knocked aside a humungous fireball like a leaf that was blowing in the wind. ¡°*Whistling* Hm¡­ Doesn¡¯t seem like I can beat you if you can deflect it that easily¡­ Which means it will end up as a stalemate or a loss¡­ Well you seem to be like me and hate effort so¡­ I admit defeat.¡± (Susan) Susan then turns towards the crowd in order to address them about her forfeiture. ¡°I, Susan Fireheart, forfeit in my match against Thanatos Yama!¡± (Susan) Ms. Thynax then comes back to them from the stands to announce the result of the final match with an incredulous look on her face. ¡°The winner of the final match is Thanatos Yama! If you would all come down to the stage now I will take you to the cafeteria so we can all eat now!¡± Ms. Thynax announced towards the crowd. ¡°You two really are ridiculous¡­ I mean really! Just how lazy are you two! Only one of you fired magic, and only once at that!¡± (Thynax) ¡°She really doesn¡¯t get it does she?¡± Thanatos looked towards Susan while asking. ¡°Seems so¡­ What a shame¡­¡± Susan replied while the two of them looked at Ms. Thynax with pitying eyes. ¡°Why are you looking at me like that!? If anyone is pitiful its you two!¡± (Thynax) The two of them just looked at her and shook their heads in disbelief and pity. ¡°Well, anyways, get up. We¡¯re going to get food now.¡± (Thynax) Before Thanatos could so much as move a finger, Shyelle came running from the stands and jumped on top of him in a frenzy. ¡°Nice match, you seemed to have enjoyed yourself a little during that one.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Well I met an interesting person, and would you get off me so you can help me up please?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm? Sure.¡± Shyelle said as she got off him. Shyelle pulled Thanatos up off the ground, helping him stand up, and then jumped on top of his back. Irene then arrived shortly after and wrapped her arm around Thanatos¡¯s. Thanatos sighed and to his mild surprise, Susan came over and linked with his other arm. Shyelle glared at her angrily but soon calmed down a little after she remembered what her brother said about meeting someone interesting. ¡°Thana-nii, is this the supposed interesting person you met? Your opponent from the match?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Hm? Yeah, I suppose so. She appears to like sleep as much as I do.¡± (Thanatos) Irene looked at Thanatos and Susan with an incredulous expression at how two people can become so close, so quickly, just from them both liking sleep. ¡°So you both like sleep a lot?¡­ And thats all you know about each other?¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Hm? Something wrong?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Nothing¡­ Lets go eat something¡­¡± Irene replied as she dragged them all off to follow behind Ms. Thynax. ¡°You¡¯re really unbelievable, you know that?¡± (Irene) ¡°I¡¯ll take that as a compliment.¡± (Thanatos) For the rest of their walk until the cafeteria, none of them said a single word, as the three girls clung to Thanatos for their own reasons the entire way. Chapter - 6 While sitting at a table with Shyelle sitting on his lap, Thanatos could hear constant a muttering of complaints streaming from Irene¡¯s mouth. Since he could barely hear what she was saying, he decided to use wind magic to amplify her voice to him like what Harmoor did during the entrance ceremony. ¡°Lazy asshole¡­ Won¡¯t even look at me¡­ Why does SHE get his attention right away when I¡¯ve been clinging to him all day with no results¡­ What the hell is wrong with him¡­¡± (Irene) Since it seemed like it could turn into a troublesome situation later on, Thanatos decided to say something to her to try to cheer her up. ¡°Irene.¡± (Thanatos) Irene looked over to Thanatos with a surprised expression on her face since she was just muttering about him. ¡®Did he hear me? I really hope he didn¡¯t¡­ If he did hear me then he might never pay any attention! What the hell is with him anyways?¡­¡¯ Irene thought to herself. ¡°Irene¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh! Sorry¡­ Yes?¡± (Irene) ¡°Is something the matter? You¡¯re acting differently than you were earlier today.¡± (Thanatos) ¡®Huh? He was actually paying attention to me?¡­ It didn¡¯t seem like he was¡­¡¯ (Irene) Shyelle who noticed Irene¡¯s flustered behaviour leaned into her ear and decided to tell her a little about her brother. ¡°You know, he¡¯s actually really attentive, he may act stupid and like he doesn¡¯t notice anything¡­ But really he sees everything and despite him technically being a genius, he decides to play dumb so people don¡¯t bother him. Oh, and also, whatever you were just muttering to yourself, he heard you.¡± Shyelle whispered into Irene¡¯s ear. Irene sat up straight like a jolt of electricity passed through her when she heard Shyelle¡¯s words. She knew that something was off about Thanatos, but she didn¡¯t expect him to have been actually paying attention all this time¡­ ¡®Wait a minute¡­ How did he hear what I was muttering!?¡¯ (Irene) Irene was a little disturbed about how Thanatos could hear what she was saying when she was muttering it so quietly, so she decided to ask Shyelle. ¡°Hey, you said he heard what I was muttering¡­ But how is that possible?¡± Irene whispered into Shyelle¡¯s ear. ¡°I told you he¡¯s a genius didn¡¯t I? I wasn¡¯t just praising¡­ He is actually a genius¡­ Don¡¯t let it bug you too much though, he doesn¡¯t like to act like one, he says it takes too much effort for some reason¡­¡± (Shyelle) When Irene heard this she instantly paled a little, then, she noticed that Thanatos has been staring at her for quite some time now with a curious look on his face. ¡°Ah, so you finally noticed my being here¡­ As I said before¡­ Is something the matter? You¡¯ve been acting differently since we got to the arena.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°You already know the answer to that don¡¯t you?¡± (Irene) ¡°Hm? What are you talking about?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh¡­ Never mind¡­ I¡¯m fine though, thank you for your concern.¡± (Irene) ¡°Hm¡­ Well you better eat before your food gets cold.¡± (Thanatos) Irene looked down to her plate in front of her and noticed that she hadn¡¯t touched a single piece of her dinner that she had grabbed, she then instantly became wide-eyed as she had completely forgot about it. ¡°O-Oh¡­ Thank you¡­¡± (Irene) ¡®So he does pay attention to me¡­ But what the hell!? Why does he act all concerned now¡­ And why doesn¡¯t he pay attention to me as a woman¡­ It seems like he only notices me as a person thats been standing around him all day¡­ Why can¡¯t he be like every other guy!?!?¡¯ Irene thought to herself while getting slightly infuriated. After eating some of her meal and mulling over her dissatisfaction towards Thanatos for a while, she decides to confront him about it. ¡°Thanatos¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Hm?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°What is up with you?¡± (Irene) ¡°Huh?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Don¡¯t play dumb! I know you know what I¡¯m talking about! I¡¯ve been all over you all day and you haven¡¯t given me so much as a second glance! Then, you start acting all concerned about me and start talking as if you¡¯ve actually looked at me once today! Why are you so frustrating!?!?!?¡± (Irene) Thanatos looked back to his plate and continued to eat his dinner as if Irene had never said a word to him. ¡°Hey!!!! Are you listening to me!?!? I said what is wrong with you!?!?¡± (Irene) ¡°What are you yelling about? And not like I really care, but you know everyone is staring at you right now, right?¡± (Thanatos) As soon as Thanatos says this, Irene looks around the cafeteria and notices everyone is staring at her while wondering what she is yelling about. ¡°Um¡­ Sorry everybody.¡± Irene says to the cafeteria and sits down after she notices she stood up to yell at Thanatos. ¡°So¡­ Care to tell me what that was all about now that you¡¯ve finally vented your frustration on my eardrums?¡± Thanatos said after finishing his meal as he turned to face Irene. ¡°Sorry¡­ I didn¡¯t mean to yell at you¡­¡± Irene said with a solemn expression. ¡°No, clearly you did, now are you going to start talking to me properly without lying straight to my face, or are you going to keep complaining about how I don¡¯t give you the same treatment as every other guy?¡± (Thanatos) ¡®He¡¯s right¡­ Why do I care so much about whether or not he treats me like every other guy out there¡­ Why was I getting so frustrated at him?¡­¡¯ Irene pondered to herself. ¡°Well, I¡¯ll let you think about that for a while¡­ Hey, Thynax. Are we dismissed after this or do we have something else we have to do?¡± Thanatos said while switching his aim to Ms. Thynax so he could get out of the cafeteria. ¡°No, you¡¯re free to go¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said while muttering about how he didn¡¯t say the ¡°Ms.¡± in her name. ¡°Great, well, I¡¯m going to bed, see you tomorrow.¡± Thanatos says as he gets up from the table. When Thanatos looks beside him, he notices not only Shyelle, but also Susan walking with him. ¡°Hm? Susan? You going to bed too?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yeah, that fight really took a lot out of me earlier¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°You too, huh? Well, I understand¡­ First having to get up, then go down there¡­ Such a hassle¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Yep, I¡¯m with you there¡­¡± (Susan) Shyelle looks at Susan with wide-eyes and begins to fully comprehend why her brother is so interested in the draconian girl beside him. After all, they are an awful lot alike when it came to their sleeping habits. ¡°Shy.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yesssss?¡± Shyelle replied with an innocent expression. ¡°You¡¯re going to let me sleep tonight, right? No night assaults?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°I make no promises.¡± Shyelle said with a wide grin as she jumps onto his back. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Well, not like I didn¡¯t see that one coming¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh? You two share a room?¡± (Susan) ¡°Yeah, we got them to make a special exception to the ''no girls and boys sharing a room together¡¯ thing¡­ It was a pain, but we managed to work it out.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm¡­ And who¡¯d you have to talk to in order to work that out?¡± (Susan) ¡°That Harmoor bastard¡­ He really is quite annoying you know¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh? I¡¯ve never met him, but he did seem quite smiley during the ceremony.¡± (Susan) ¡°Yeah¡­ You seem to be like me¡­ So take my word and never try to meet him¡­ His personality is not what I call likeable¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Noted. So what dorm building are you in anyways since you can¡¯t be in an all-boy or an all-girl one?¡± (Susan) ¡°Ah, we¡¯re in a special private one¡­ It¡¯s a little bit further but there¡¯s very few students there, so it¡¯s more relaxing but it also takes more effort to travel to and from it¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh, I¡¯m in one of those too¡­¡± (Susan) ¡®Oi, oi¡­ If that bastard did what I think he did¡­ He would do that wouldn¡¯t he¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought to himself. ¡°You don¡¯t think?¡± (Susan) ¡°I think he did¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡®That bastard really does like to meddle¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought. ¡°He¡¯s one of those kinds of people who like to make life into a big game for their amusement¡­ So I wouldn¡¯t really be all that surprised if he put us who have similar personalities in the same dorm¡­ Also, don¡¯t you find it¡¯s a bit odd that two people so alike ended up fighting each other on the first day?¡­ That bastard, so meddlesome¡­¡± (Thanatos) As the trio continues on a bit further, Thanatos suddenly hears footsteps running towards them and decides to stop to see who it is. When he turns around, he sees Irene running after them from down the hallway waving her arm in the air above her head. Once she catches up, she bends over to catch her breath before talking to them. ¡°Hah, hah¡­ Finally caught up with you guys, hah¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°So, what do you need?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Uh, um¡­ I just heard from Ms. Thynax that I¡¯m going to be living in the same private dorm as you guys¡­ According to her, apparently Principle Harmoor watched my fight and was impressed, so he offered me a room in the private dorm¡­ I was going to live back in the inn with my family, but I thought it would be better to live on campus, so I decided to accept his offer. Anyways, Ms. Thynax told me to catch up with you guys since we would be living in the same building¡­¡± (Irene) Thanatos who heard this, turned to Susan with a frown on his face. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ See what I mean?¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah¡­ Yep¡­ He really is meddlesome¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Well whatever¡­ Follow us I guess¡­¡± Thanatos said to Irene. As Irene walks a bit behind Thanatos, she starts to ponder more over what he had said to her earlier. ¡®Why was I complaining about him being different? Isn¡¯t being different a good thing?¡­ I mean, at least he isn¡¯t staring at me all the time with lustful eyes¡­ Although a bit might be nice, it seems he hasn¡¯t even noticed how I look¡­¡¯ Irene thought to herself with a solemn face. This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. ¡°Hey, are you gonna keep sulking or what? You¡¯ve been awfully quiet back there.¡± Thanatos said to Irene without even turning around to look at her. ¡°I¡¯m not sulking! And how would you know since you haven¡¯t even turned around to look at me!?¡± (Irene) ¡°Ugh, so loud¡­ Why do you keep on yelling?¡­ You know if you keep on acting like that I may never look at you.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And who said I want you to look at me!?!?¡± (Irene) ¡°No one, just my observation.¡± Thanatos replied nonchalantly. ¡°Oooo¡­ So annoying¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Says the one who¡¯s been clinging to me all day like it was the only way to save her life from some terminal illness?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Shut up!¡± (Irene) ¡°Yep, there it is¡­ You know if you start acting all cold and don¡¯t really mean it, then I will personally see to it that you have been electrocuted thoroughly, alright?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh, like you could¡­¡± (Irene) As soon as Irene says this, dozens of lightning bolts come off of Thanatos¡¯s skin and strike Irene all over her body, sending her into a spasming fit on the floor. While Irene is shaking on the floor, Thanatos approaches her and notices she lost all control of her bodily functions from the lightning, causing her to urinate and defecate in her pants while drool was coming from her mouth. ¡°Yeesh¡­ I told you I would see to it that you were electrocuted thoroughly you know¡­ And look at you, making me put in so much effort¡­ *Sigh*¡­¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos looked to his side and saw Susan staring at him with wide eyes, unable to believe what he had just done. ¡°What? I warned her didn¡¯t I? And Shy, do you think you could please carry her for me?¡­ If I did it, it would become a hassle later on¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Awwww!!!! I don¡¯t want to!¡­ But if Thana-nii asks me I can¡¯t exactly refuse¡­ Oooo¡­ No fair¡­¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos rubs Shyelle''s head to try and make her feel better. ¡°Sorry, and thank you.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Mhmm¡­ But I want something in return later!¡± Shyelle said as she gets off Thanatos¡¯s back. ¡°Well¡­ It seems it was a good thing that I admitted defeat earlier¡­ That looked painful¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Nah¡­ I turned down the voltage a lot, she should be fine.¡± (Thanatos) After he says this, Shyelle picks up Irene and they continue back on their way to the private dormitory. Just before they get to the entrance of the dormitory, Irene starts to stir from her lightning-induced nap. ¡°Ah, so you¡¯re waking up, huh?¡± Thanatos said to the barely conscious Irene. ¡°That really wasn¡¯t cool¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°I warned you well in advance, so don¡¯t blame me.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh, what kind of man hits a defenceless woman anyways?¡± (Irene) ¡°The kind that doesn¡¯t give two shits about gender roles or society? I dunno, don¡¯t complain to me when I did warn you.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oooo¡­ Jack ass¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°You know, Thana-nii turned down the power a lot on that one¡­ You should be grateful that he only gave you a light zapping¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Has he ever done that to you before?¡± Irene asked as she gets out of Shyelle¡¯s grasp to stand up. ¡°He¡¯s never needed to, I would never lie to Thana-nii!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Outside of joking around you mean?¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Details...¡± Shyelle responded with a wave of her hand as if to dismiss the fact. ¡°Still¡­ He didn¡¯t have to hit me with so many bolts¡­ Ugh, I feel so sore it¡¯s like my body got thrown off a cliff¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Will you stop complaining, we¡¯re here you know?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Well¡­ Nice to see you showed me the way¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°You would have seen the way here if you heeded my advice.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yeah, yeah. I get it already.¡± (Irene) ¡°Good, just so you know, every time you lie to me, you are going to get zapped by a bolt of lightning.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°WHAT!?!?¡± (Irene) ¡°I told you, every time you lie to me, you get zapped¡­ What is so hard about that to understand?¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Whatever¡­ Anyways¡­ Last time I didn¡¯t even lie to you! All I did was backtalk you a little and you decided to give me shock therapy!¡± (Irene) ¡°Meh, details¡­ Anyways, lets go inside already, I want to go to sleep.¡± Thanatos said while looking up at the moon, Nex. It had taken quite a long time to get through all the matches, when the group walked outside they discovered that it was already night time. ¡°Oh, and also, if you try to attack me in any way, or try to bring me any kind of trouble, then once again, you get zapped.¡± Thanatos said while shifting his gaze back to Irene. ¡°WHAT!? What did I do to deserve this!?¡± (Irene) ¡°You made our plans for living here difficult¡­ So stop drawing so much attention to us, will you?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh, fine¡­ But I¡¯ll get you back one of these days you know¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Mhm. Hey Shy, do you think I should turn up the voltage next time?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes, definitely.¡± Shyelle replied with an ear-to-ear grin. ¡°Wha-Wha-What!? Where¡¯s my say in this?¡± (Irene) Thanatos then continued into the private dormitory in front of them without paying any attention to what Irene had said. ¡°Are you planning on sleeping outside? Or are you gonna come in?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°UGH!!!! Yes, I¡¯m coming inside!¡± Irene said while looking at Thanatos bitterly. ¡°Well great, thats good to hear. I suppose you know where to find your own room? According to Susan she lives next door to Shy and myself, so we¡¯re gonna go straight to our rooms now.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Um¡­ Actually¡­ According to Ms. Thynax I am to share a room with Susan¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°What!?!? Who said you can do that!?!?¡± Susan who had remained quiet until now, started to get angry at having to live with someone else. ¡°Umm¡­ Apparently its Principle Harmoor?¡± Irene replied with a bit of fright. ¡°You¡¯re right!!!! I do hate the man!!!! C¡¯mon! Let¡¯s go kill him Thanatos!¡± Susan yelled out angrily. ¡°Hmmm¡­ As much as I¡¯d love to, sleep sounds much better¡­¡± Thanatos replied with a face suggesting he was torn between the two options. Susan looked angrily towards Irene with a face filled with distrust. ¡°You better not interrupt my sleep. If you do, you¡¯re gonna be burnt to the point that even ashes won¡¯t remain.¡± (Susan) Thanatos who listened to Susan¡¯s threatening of Irene nodded his head in approval. ¡°I must agree, sleep is a very precious thing¡­ Interrupting sleep is an act worthy of death.¡± Thanatos said while nodding his head profoundly. ¡°Indeed.¡± Susan said while starting to nod her head as well. Irene who saw the two talking about sleep like it was some kind of deity, leans over to Shyelle and whispers to her. ¡°Um, why the hell are they so obsessed with sleep?¡± (Irene) ¡°*Shrugging* Who knows, anyways, lets go upstairs.¡± (Shyelle) After that, Shyelle and Thanatos advanced into their room, and Irene and Susan went into the room beside theirs. ¡°Remember what I said, I¡¯m tired so no night assaults.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°I will try my utmost to restrain myself¡­ But I make no promises¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Whatever, you do that¡­¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos then went took off his new uniform and went to bed in his underwear. As he laid there with his eyes clothes, sleep gradually took him into its clutches. Once Shyelle had determined that Thanatos was asleep, she left her room and went into Susan and Irene¡¯s room next door. ¡°Hey, you guys still up?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m surprised you¡¯re not trying to rape your brother though¡± Irene replied with a wry smile. ¡°Rape her brother? She¡¯d do that?¡± Susan asked while astonished. ¡°It¡¯s not rape if it¡¯s done in love!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Um, yes it is.¡± Susan and Irene replied in harmony. ¡°Shut up!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°So what do you want anyways?¡± (Irene) ¡°Ah, well, I wasn¡¯t sure how loud Irene was so¡­ I thought I might come over and offer Susan my bed since I won¡¯t be using it¡­¡± Shyelle replied with an innocent face. ¡°You do realize that he asked you to NOT commit a night assault, right?¡± (Susan) ¡°And?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°*Sigh*¡­ How loud of a sleeper are you Irene?¡± (Susan) ¡°Um¡­ I don¡¯t think I¡¯m loud? But I¡¯ve never shared a room with someone before so¡­ I can¡¯t be too sure¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Well then I guess I¡¯ll sleep here for tonight, if she¡¯s loud then is the offer open for tomorrow?¡± (Susan) ¡°Sure! As long as you don¡¯t interrupt my night assaults!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°So you admit they¡¯re night assaults!?¡± Susan and Irene once again said in-sync. ¡°Yeah? So? Anyways, goodnight.¡± Shyelle said as she left through the door. ¡°Goodnight.¡± (Irene) ¡°Sweet dreams.¡± Susan said while closing the door gently behind Shyelle. ¡®Well, time to sneakily get into his bed I suppose¡­¡¯ Shyelle thought to herself as she made her way back into her room. As Shyelle approached her brother¡¯s bed while taking off all her clothes and undergarments, she sneaked under the covers and tightly snuggled up in front of him with a wide smile on her face. ¡°Goodnight, Thana-nii.¡± Shyelle whispered softly after kissing her brother while he slept, before she closed her eyes to go to sleep. Once Shyelle fell asleep, Thanatos suddenly snapped his eyes opened, and got out of bed with a mischievous look in his eye. Tonight he was barely going to get any of the sleep he so dearly loves, but instead, he was going to get something that may be very valuable in the future. Chapter - 7 Thanatos quietly sneaked out of his room and closed the door silently behind him. He then went over to the room beside his and entered without making a noise. Whatever noise Thanatos might have made, he made certain that it would not travel by using wind magic in the room to stop all sounds from travelling. Thanatos then silently went over to Irene, picked her up delicately, and took her out into the hallway. Once he had her in the hallway, he closed the door behind him and took her to a washroom with no one inside of it. Thanatos then brought Irene over to a wall, took off her clothes, and then used earth magic to bind her to the wall. Once he made certain that she was bound tightly and securely, he created a ball of water with magic and splashed her in the face with it to wake her up. ¡°*Cough cough* Where am I? Huh?¡± Irene woke up choking on water trying to get a grasp of where she was, and once she snapped out of the daze brought from being woken up abruptly, she noticed that she was bound to a wall inside of a bathroom with Thanatos nearby her. ¡°Um¡­ What¡¯s going on here? And where are my clothes?¡± (Irene) ¡°Not much, and I took them off you so they don¡¯t get ruined. You see, I just need to make sure that you don¡¯t screw over everything that I¡¯m trying to accomplish here, okay?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And what do you mean by that?¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Well, the only reason I signed up Shyelle and myself to go to school was so she could try to live a normal life¡­ But with you around making a ruckus everywhere you go¡­ That may prove to be difficult¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°So¡­ What are you going to do with me chained to a wall like this? Starve me to death? I¡¯m pretty sure someone would find me before that happens¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°No, no, no¡­ If I wanted to kill you I would have done that by now. Quick and clean without there even being a trace that you were once here.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Uh huh¡­ Well I don¡¯t see you as the type of guy who would just rape or murder someone for no reason¡­ And I also don¡¯t see you as the type of guy who would torture someone so¡­ What are you going to do with me?¡± (Irene) ¡°Ooh! One of those were actually correct, I know it will sound corny to say that I¡¯m going to torture you now that you¡¯ve said that but¡­ Whatever. *Shrugs*¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos then created a ball of water in his hand and started discharging lightning into it. ¡°Um¡­ What are you going to do with that?¡± Irene said while looking at the ball of electrified water with immense fear in her eyes. ¡°This? Well obvious this is one of the things I¡¯m going to use to torture you with¡­¡± Thanatos said with an incredulous expression. ¡°Oh, and by the way, no matter how much you scream no one will hear it, I made sure of that already with wind magic.¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos then went forward and started pressing the ball of water against her skin. ¡°AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!¡± Irene screamed out in agony. ¡°So¡­ How was it?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hah, hah¡­ So, hah, what is the point in you torturing me anyways?¡­ What would you gain from torturing me? Wouldn¡¯t it be more simple to just put distance between us?¡± (Irene) ¡°Hm¡­ You say it would be simple to put distance between us but¡­ You¡¯re pretty stubborn, you know that right? After the amount of time I spent giving you almost no attention you still kept clinging to me¡­ So I highly doubt you¡¯d go away now¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Err¡­ Can¡¯t exactly deny that but¡­ Why do you want to torture me?¡± (Irene) ¡°Well, you can call it torture, or you can call it behavioural modification¡­¡± Said Thanatos as he applied another electrified water ball to her skin, making Irene scream out once again. ¡°You know about variant magic right?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yeah¡­ What about it?¡­¡± (Irene) Variant magic is special magic that very few people have. Sometimes, instead of getting one of the five main elements, a person may be gifted with a magic that is a bit different from their racial element. A dwarf for example may be able to control magnetism instead of earth itself, or a draconian may be able to control heat instead of fire. In some cases, people who are gifted with variant magic are unable to use their racial element and instead need to attempt to recreate it via other means, but this does not always hold true. ¡°Well you see, I myself hold a variant magic¡­ My specific one is energy manipulation and observation¡­ Which... Is a bit different than just lightning or electricity¡­¡± Thanatos said with a slight grin. ¡°So¡­ What? You can manipulate energy? So what?¡­¡± Irene said while confused as to why he would reveal this now. ¡°You see, the brain of any living being works by interpreting electrical signals¡­ If say one were to tamper with the energy and electrical signals in one¡¯s mind¡­ What do you think would happen to that person?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Let me guess¡­ Manipulate the way the person thinks and behaves?¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Correct! Which also answers your previous question about why I¡¯m here torturing you¡­ You see, once I understand exactly how your brain is wired, it makes the whole process much easier. Also, by inducing a lot of pain and making you experience a lot of emotion, how active do you think your brain is going to be?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°So? Why does it need to be more active?¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Ah, you see, once you¡¯ve been tired out both mentally and physically after being tortured for a long time, it also once again, makes the process so much easier. If you put in less effort to resist, then I have to put in less time and effort to alter you.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And you think that you can just alter my personality and behaviour and no one would notice?¡± (Irene) ¡°Ummm¡­ Yes? This isn¡¯t the first time I¡¯ve done this you know?¡± Thanatos said as he heats a water ball with fire magic and presses it into her stomach, making her scream. ¡°Oh, and by the way, don¡¯t worry about any marks on your skin. I¡¯ll make sure to fix that after this is all done.¡± (Thanatos) Irene looked at Thanatos as if she had no idea what he was talking about, then she felt another heated water ball pressing against her stomach. ¡°AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!¡± (Irene) ¡°Oh, and if you ever do feel like just accepting the alterations, just tell me. I don¡¯t expect you to last too long but¡­ You never know.¡± Thanatos said as he started applying electrified water balls to various parts of her body, making her scream out in agony. As Thanatos continued to torture Irene, he thought back to when he used to live in the town here ten years ago. When he was a little boy, he came home with his parents to find their door broken open. When they went inside, they made their way to the kitchen where they found a group of five thieves rummaging through their belongings. Thanatos¡¯s father, Michael, grabbed two knives and handed one of them to Thanatos. Michael then went up to one of the thieves, and slashed his neck from behind. As soon as the body hit the ground, the other four thieves became alert and saw the family that had returned home. Michael than ran up to the other thieves and quickly stabbed three of them in the throat, but was then killed by the last remaining thief. After Michael was killed, the remaining thief then went and tied up Thanatos and his mother. Thanatos¡¯s mother was raped and tortured repeatedly right in front of his eyes, as the man tried to find out where all the valuables were. She wouldn¡¯t tell him though, despite the fact that it would make him stop the continuous abuse he was giving her. His mother believed that once she told him where all the valuables were hidden, he would have no use for herself or Thanatos anymore and would kill them both. To ensure that Thanatos survived, she made sure to not tell him where the valuables were hidden. After being raped and tortured continuously for hours, the man determined that he wouldn¡¯t get anything out of Thanatos¡¯s mother, and killed her. As the man approached Thanatos, Thanatos fumbled around on the ground looking for something he could use to defend himself. The knife that his father had given him was taken away when he was tied up, but beside him, was the last of the corpses created by his father. Implanted in the corpse Thanatos could see the knife that his father had used to kill the man. Thanatos quickly pulled the knife out of the corpse, and as the thief approached him, he stabbed him in his chest. Thanatos could feel blood flowing through his fingers and his tears unable to stop flowing from his eyes. The man in front of him had killed his parents, the only people in his life who had ever accepted him and shown him any kindness. Thanatos was considered a genius around town, and everyone only considered him to be that. All of the other kids avoided him because all the parents would only talk about or pay attention to him. As a result, Thanatos grew incredibly close to his parents, as they were the only ones who loved him not because he was a genius, but because he was their son. Now that the man who had killed the only people who he had ever loved, and who had ever loved him, all Thanatos could do was sit there and cry for hours. Thanatos suddenly realized that he was still torturing Irene as he thought about the past, and looked to see her body covered with burn marks. He quickly cut off the severely burnt pieces of flesh with a knife, then used energy manipulation to alter the cellular regeneration rate and also the cells¡¯ life spans, causing the lightly burnt skin to be shed off and replaced with new skin before it could leave any scarring, and filling in the gaps created by the knife. When Thanatos looked into Irene¡¯s eyes, he saw no light in them as they looked completely hollow, and he could also hear her silently muttering. Thanatos decided to use wind magic to amplify the volume of her voice so he could hear her. ¡°Please¡­ No more¡­ I¡¯ll do whatever you say¡­ Please no more¡­ I¡¯ll do whatever you want¡­ I¡¯ll let you do the alteration¡­¡± (Irene) Thanatos decided that it would be the best time now that her spirit was broken in order for him to do the alteration. He put his hand up to her head, and then he carefully began to manipulate the electrical impulses in her brain as well as its layout. When he tilted her head to look at him, he could feel through the impulses in her brain that she felt disgust, disloyalty, hatred, and fear. Thanatos then proceeded to alter the impulses and the brain itself to a small degree, making her feel undying loyalty, love, absolute trust, unyielding obedience, and a everlasting desire to serve him. While he was at it, he also made some other alterations to her behaviour and personality that he thought might be useful or possibly humorous. After he was done, he opened up the earth bindings that held her in place, and then turned them to dust with energy manipulation, wind magic, and fire magic. As soon as she hit the ground¡­ ¡°THANA!!!!¡± Irene screamed as she dove and tackled him with a hug. ¡®Hm¡­ Perhaps I overdid it a little bit?¡­ And I did use what I remembered of Shyelle¡¯s brain as a template¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought to himself. Irene then began to start grinding her body against his while they lay down on the floor. Thanatos, who was just laying there, thought it was a good time to test the modifications he made. ¡°Irene, stop.¡± As soon as Thanatos said this, Irene immediately stopped what she was doing, and sat down on top of her knees a little away from him. ¡°Hm¡­ Take this knife and cut thinly across your stomach.¡± (Thanatos) Irene then took the knife from his hand, and then cut a straight, shallow line from one side of her stomach to the other. ¡°Ok, put the knife down and come closer.¡± (Thanatos) Irene once again did exactly what Thanatos said and drew closer to him after putting the knife down. Thanatos then healed her stomach using energy manipulation once again, and then picked up her clothes and gave them to her. ¡°Thank you, Master.¡± Irene said with a delighted smile on her face. ¡®Hm¡­ Master, huh? Whatever¡­ I guess I¡¯ll let her call me that for now, but not around others.¡¯ Thanatos thought to himself. ¡°Irene.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes Master?¡± (Irene) ¡°You are allowed to call me ¡®Master¡¯, but not around others, understood?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes Master.¡± (Irene) ¡°Also, do not speak of what happened in here today to anyone, and make sure to just act like you suddenly fell in love with me or something¡­ I don¡¯t know¡­ Well, just don¡¯t act like a slave when around others¡­ Okay?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes Master. However¡­ Act like I suddenly fell in love? Didn¡¯t I just do that anyways?¡± (Irene) ¡®Hm¡­ Maybe I should have given her more of a personality, and it seems like she completely accepts what just happened¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought. ¡°Well¡­ I suppose¡­ Just try not to completely overdo it, okay? And try not to cause any problems for us or Shyelle, okay?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yes Master.¡± (Irene) ¡°And stop acting so stiff¡­ It¡¯s like your a robot¡­ Act naturally¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Okay¡­ Um¡­ Thana? May I ask you something please?¡± Irene asked shyly with pleading eyes. ¡°What is it?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Um¡­ May we please sleep together tonight?¡± (Irene) ¡°No, I¡¯m going to bed, and you should too.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Okay¡­¡± Irene said while looking down with a dejected face. Irene then finally put on the clothes that Thanatos had given back to her, then went over to him and kissed him. ¡°What was that about?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Nothing¡­ Just wanted to try it¡­ You don¡¯t mind, do you?¡± Irene asked while acting innocently. ¡°I don¡¯t really care, but if Shyelle saw you do that she¡¯d probably not be too impressed¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Oh, and before I forget, make sure that no harm ever comes to me or Shyelle, even if you must sacrifice your own life in the process.¡± Thanatos said before he entirely forgot. If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. ¡°Yes Master. Oh, but Master! Can I pleeeeaaaaaase sleep with you tonight?¡± (Irene) ¡®Seems she¡¯s having trouble with selecting a name for me¡­ I¡¯m sure she¡¯ll get it eventually¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought to himself. ¡°No, now go to your room and sleep.¡± Thanatos ordered to his new, quickly made slave. Irene then left the bathroom and went to her room to sleep as ordered, however when she fell asleep after that, Thanatos had no idea. Since he thought it might be amusing to fool around with Shyelle, he also decided to put things like lust towards him into her new personality, so whether or not she goes straight to sleep he is entirely unsure. Thanatos had made several slaves before he had made Irene, however, due to the short amount of time he had to work with her and not wanting to draw too much suspicion, he decided to not entirely change her personality and made most of the changes only towards how she acts towards himself. After inspecting the bathroom for any traces of what just occurred and removing any that did appear, Thanatos picked up the knife on the ground, and left to go back to his room. Once he cleaned his knife, he went back into bed, and fell asleep after putting Shyelle back in the position she was in before as to not alert her as to what happened. *** When Thanatos awoke the next morning, he found Shyelle crouched on top of him on all fours, with drool coming out of her mouth and a massive smile on her face. As soon as he noticed how Shyelle was on top of him, he looked down and discovered himself tied to the bed with his underwear taken off¡­ ¡°¡­ Where did you get the rope from?¡± Thanatos asked curiously to his sister. ¡°I went next door and got some from Irene and Susan, they were quite insistent that I take it and leave¡­ So I did.¡± Shyelle replied with a smile on her face. As Shyelle¡¯s face started to slowly get closer and closer to his own, suddenly the door opened. What Thanatos saw, was Irene standing there with her mouth wide open. ¡°*Gasp*¡­ Can I join!?!?¡± Irene asked innocently, which shocked Shyelle to the point that it seemed she turned to stone. ¡°Uh, umm¡­ Sure?¡­¡± Shyelle said once she recovered while looking at Irene confused. Irene then came inside, closed the door, took off all her clothes, and rushed onto the bed beside Shyelle. ¡°Umm¡­ Whats with you all of a sudden?¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Huh? What do you mean?¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°I mean you¡¯re acting weird¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Ah! Yesterday Thana told me to figure out what I want and I did¡­ I want him!¡± Irene said which caused Shyelle to grumble. Irene who noticed Shyelle¡¯s worsening attitude, leaned into her ear and whispered to her. ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯m fine with not having him all to myself, as long as I am able to have a bit of him thats fine¡­ Okay?¡± Irene quietly asked Shyelle innocently. Shyelle thought about the offer and weighed the pros and cons of accepting her ofter, after thinking for a while, she made her decision. ¡°Deal, we¡¯ll share him, but don¡¯t try to take him all for yourself¡­ He¡¯s both of ours¡­¡± Shyelle quietly warned Irene. ¡°That¡¯s fine, as long as I get some of him, I¡¯m happy.¡± Irene replied innocently. Once the two finished making a deal with one another, they set their sights back onto Thanatos. ¡°Thana-nii¡­ I think today is the day it happens¡­ Hehehe¡­¡± Shyelle grinned dangerously while laughing mischievously. Shyelle grabbed hold of his penis, and just as she was about to insert it into herself, the door suddenly slammed open. Susan, who saw Irene and Shyelle forcing themselves onto Thanatos, had her eyes widen enormously. ¡°What do you two think you¡¯re doing to him!?!?!?¡± Susan asked in bewilderment. ¡°Um¡­ Helping get rid of excess trees by removing morning wood?¡± Shyelle replied half-seriously. ¡°Uh¡­ Helping her help get rid of excess trees by removing morning wood?¡± Irene replied as if she herself was unsure as to what she was doing. ¡°No¡­ I¡¯m pretty sure what you two are doing is called rape¡­ Now get off him and get ready¡­ You know class starts soon right?¡± (Susan) ¡°Oh yeah, I forgot about classes.¡± Both Irene and Shyelle replied in harmony as they got up, got dressed, and left to go downstairs. ¡°My god, it¡¯s like there¡¯s two of them¡­¡± Susan said incredulously. ¡°Yeah¡­ I have to agree with you there¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡®Maybe I used Shyelle¡¯s brain mapping as a template a bit too much¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought to himself. ¡°But still, you gave her a speech last night along with a threat, and it somehow turned into rape attempts in the morning¡­ That is one odd girl¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Yeah¡­ But whatever¡­ At least she seems honest now¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°True¡­ But at what cost¡­ And are you just gonna lay there naked or are you going to get up?¡± (Susan) ¡°That is a toughie¡­ The first one sounds like the better option but I¡¯m not sure¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm, a nudist are we?¡± Susan asked with a wry smile. ¡°I have nothing against it, but people badgering me about it would be a pain¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah¡­ If I tried to pull it off people would stare at me an awful lot¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Wouldn¡¯t you just burn them to dust if they bothered you? Although that does seem like effort¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And there is the problem¡­ Now if only there was something that could be done without any effort¡­¡± Susan said as both her and Thanatos began to think seriously about the matter. ¡°Although, judging by the look of you, you get the same problem don¡¯t you?¡± Susan said while looking over Thanatos¡¯s body. ¡°Yeah, but it doesn¡¯t bother me, I don¡¯t really care¡­ In fact Thynax stared quite a bit yesterday when she saw me naked¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ms. Thynax saw you naked?¡­¡± Susan asked disbelieving. ¡°Yeah, she went to collect me and Shy for the arena matches and I had just got out of the bath, she stared for a bit while looking flustered then had her eyes wandering around the room nervously¡­ She seemed really uptight about it¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm¡­ What an odd woman¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Yep, I agree¡­¡± (Thanatos) After talking back and forth for a bit while Thanatos remained naked in bed, Thanatos decides to get up and get dressed for classes. ¡°I guess I should get dressed and get up¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah right, you¡¯re naked¡­ I forgot about that¡­¡± (Susan) ¡°Yeah¡­ Why can¡¯t more people be like you? The world would be so much better¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm¡­ Touch¨¦¡­¡± (Susan) Thanatos then got dressed and walked downstairs to the main entrance with Susan, where they met up with Shyelle and Irene. ¡°Well, lets go to class, shall we?¡± Thanatos said while acting as if nothing happened in his room earlier. ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Shyelle responded as she jumped up onto Thanatos¡¯s back. Irene went up beside Thanatos and latched onto his arm greedily. ¡°Hey Thana, want to go get something to eat with me after school today?¡± Irene asked as she rubbed Thanatos¡¯s arm against her cleavage. ¡°Nope.¡± Thanatos replied bluntly. Susan, who has thought Irene has been acting strangely since she woke up, looked at Irene clinging to Thanatos curiously and decided to ask him about it. She went next to him and leaned towards his ear on the opposite side of Irene, so that way, no one would hear what she wanted to talk to him about. ¡°Hey, not that I¡¯m judging but, what did you do to her? She¡¯s been acting weird and clinging to you like a second Shyelle ever since she woke up¡­¡± Susan silently inquired. ¡°Hm? Me? Nothing? What are you talking about? All I did was scold her harshly into being honest¡­ You were there yesterday, you should know that.¡± Thanatos replied quietly. ¡°Mhm¡­ So if I ask HER, she will say the same thing?¡± Susan asked while motioning towards Irene. ¡°I doubt she¡¯d look at what I did to her fondly but¡­ I guess so, yeah. Why?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°No reason.¡± Susan replied as she clung to his arm to make them look slightly less suspicious. As soon as they all left together to go to class, Thanatos could feel Shyelle and Irene deliberately rubbing their breasts against his body non-stop. ¡®Just how horny do these two need to be¡­ I really overdid it on Irene¡­ But it would be too much effort to go back and alter her mind again¡­¡¯ Thanatos thought to himself while despairing a little inside. The more he continued on his way towards their class, the more he could feel the two girls¡¯ breasts pressing against his body. As he walked further, the girls, with the exception of Susan, made more attempts at flaunting their sexuality towards him by pressing against his body with more strength. When Thanatos started to feel Shyelle grinding against his back and humping him lightly from behind, he decided to say something to them. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ I know you two have been pressing your breasts against me with increasing pressure for a while now, but¡­ Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s a tad unnecessary for you to be humping and grinding against me from behind?¡± Thanatos said as he mainly addressed Shyelle, but also Irene. ¡°Huh? I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re talking about brother¡­ Who¡¯s been humping and grinding against you!? After all, that¡¯s my job!¡± (Shyelle) Thanatos just sighed in reply and continued on his way to class while being molested by two girls along the way. When they arrived at the classroom and opened the door, everyone immediately turned and stared at them. The boys all looked at Thanatos with envy, jealousy, and hatred evident in their eyes. The girls looked at them with a wider variety of expressions, some had looks of pity directed towards Thanatos, some sent looks of disgust like he was some kind of womanizer, and a few oddly looked like they wanted to join the girls in clinging to him. The four of them decided to sit at the front of class where Shyelle immediately decided to sit on his lap once again. When Irene sat down beside him, she sent countless jealous glares towards Shyelle as she wanted to sit on his lap too. Susan, who sat on the other side of Thanatos, just looked at him with pitying eyes. ¡°You know, you could help out instead of just looking at me with pity, right?¡± Thanatos told Susan as he leaned towards her ear. ¡°Nah, too much effort.¡± (Susan) ¡°Hm, can¡¯t argue with you there¡­¡± (Thanatos) After looking around the classroom and not finding Ms. Thynax anywhere, Thanatos decided it was a good time to catch up on the sleep he missed. Thanatos knew that his sister wouldn¡¯t mind if he used her as a pillow, so he rested his head on one of her shoulders in front of him. Once he closed his eyes, he could feel Irene and Susan beside him using his shoulders for pillows as well. Shyelle just sat on Thanatos¡¯s lap swinging her legs around and humming happily while the three slept behind her. When class was about to start, Ms. Thynax came into the classroom, and as soon as she saw the trio sleeping peacefully, a shocked expression came over her face. ¡°Just how much do those two sleep!?!? And why is she sleeping too!?!? Are you really okay with letting your brother use you as a headrest!?¡± Ms. Thynax said frantically. ¡°Shhhh!!!! They¡¯re sleeping! Be Quiet! And besides, isn¡¯t there no yelling allowed inside the classrooms?¡± Shyelle scolded Ms. Thynax causing her to mutter silent curses to herself. ¡°And what do you think about the rule of no sleeping in class?¡± Ms. Thynax retorted after she finished cursing under her breath. ¡°I don¡¯t really care either way¡­ But you really shouldn¡¯t tell Thana-nii or Susan about that rule¡­ They¡¯re already mad enough with this school as is¡­ I shudder at what they might do to Principle Harmoor if you tried to enforce the no sleeping rule¡­¡± Shyelle replied truthfully. ¡°Well I really don¡¯t care, now either you wake them up or I will. Class is about to start.¡± (Thynax) ¡°I¡¯m not doing it¡­ And if you don¡¯t want to experience a world of pain I suggest you don¡¯t do it either¡­¡± Shyelle warned Ms. Thynax. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Fine, I¡¯ll do it.¡± (Thynax) Ms. Thynax then walked over to the sleeping trio and went to wake them up. She pulled back her hand to slap Thanatos in order to rouse him, but just before her hand reached his face, Shyelle caught and stopped it. ¡°I suggest you do it gently.¡± Shyelle said while looking at Ms. Thynax angrily. ¡°Ugh, fine.¡± (Thynax) Ms. Thynax then reached forward so she could gently shake Thanatos awake, but as soon as she touched him, a surging wave of pain passed through her entire body. She quickly fell to the floor while gripping her hand and spasming around endlessly. When Thanatos opened his eyes and realized that it wasn¡¯t Shyelle who had woken him, he immediately used magic in retaliation. He used fire magic to heat the surface of his skin to extreme temperatures while sending forth several bolts of lightning at the same time, and while he did that, he also used energy manipulation to activate the pain centre of Ms. Thynax¡¯s brain to an overwhelming level. Ms. Thynax immediately lost consciousness as she flopped around on the floor drooling, urinating, and defecating all at the same time. Looking down, Thanatos could see a look of absolute agony on her face that was so excruciating that it made people cringe from just seeing it. Thanatos who saw the state his teacher was in, only sighed and went back to sleep while some of the students roan out of the classroom to get the medics. Truly this was going to be troublesome, but she did deserve what happened because she woke him up, or so Thanatos believed. Chapter - 8 As Thanatos slept in his seat with two young women resting on his shoulders, Shyelle was happily humming and swinging her feet around on his lap as if nothing had happened. However, as soon as the students who left to retrieve the medics returned, Shyelle had her carefree expression freeze instantaneously. This was due to the fact that when the students returned, they all were preparing to attack Thanatos with their magic silently. While looking at the sleeping Thanatos, a young human man decided that it was the perfect time to attack him. The young man launched a bolt of lightning straight at Thanatos¡¯s head from the doorway he was standing in, expecting it to cause Thanatos to flop around like a fish out of water. However, right before the bolt of lightning struck him, Shyelle flicked her wrist and the lightning went hurling straight back at the young man, sending him flying out of the room! While sending all the returning students a fierce glare, Shyelle decided to warn the class thoroughly. ¡°I don¡¯t expect you to just forgive him for ruining the first day of school, but interrupting his sleep is the fastest way to get everyone in this school killed by him. And attacking him while he¡¯s sleeping as I¡¯m present¡­ Is the best way to get yourselves the most painful death you could ever imagine.¡± Shyelle said with a piercing gaze cold enough to freeze over hell itself. ¡°Now, are we clear?¡± Shyelle asked with an upbeat personality as she went back to her happy, unconcerned self. The students who were about to attack Thanatos, all had their magic dissipate into nothingness as they stared at the short, frightening girl who was sitting absentmindedly on Thanatos¡¯s lap, with blatant fear in each of their eyes. ¡°Well? Are we clear or not?¡± Shyelle asked the stupefied classmates sharply, coming out of her innocent personality for only just a moment. All of the students just looked at her with wide eyes while nodding their heads vigorously. ¡°Good. Lets hope that teacher gets up soon¡­ I want to try out this whole school thing¡­¡± said Shyelle as she spoke her thoughts to no one in particular. ¡®I hope that Thana-nii wakes up soon¡­ I know that he disappeared in the middle of the night thinking I wouldn¡¯t notice¡­ But still¡­ Even if he is doting and overprotective, he should still know that I can handle whatever problems come my way by myself¡­ There was no need to brainwash little miss slut into being some slave of his¡­ I wonder if he realizes that I know what he does ¡°secretly¡± all the time, even though he¡¯s so stealthy¡­ Although¡­ I¡¯m sure he¡¯s noticed me observing and decided to just ignore it like everything else he finds bothersome¡­¡¯ Shyelle thought to herself. While Shyelle was thinking to herself on her brother¡¯s lap, all the other students decided it was best to just pretend the whole incident never happened and returned to their seats, waiting for the medics to finish taking a look at their agonized teacher. Just looking at Ms. Thynax¡¯s face of sheer agony sent some of the weaker students straight to the bathroom to void their bladder, as just imagining receiving a sliver of the pain that she did was enough to make them nearly wet themselves in sheer terror. After about an hour of waiting, Ms. Thynax was already all bandaged up by the medics and was now beginning to wake up from her forced slumber. The students who noticed this, were rejoicing silently in their hearts that she was actually able to get up at all. They would have all rushed over to her making sure that she was okay, but they did not want to incur the wrath of the man who was sleeping in the seat right next to her. Once she opened her eyes, Ms. Thynax felt a rush of excruciating pain flowing through her entire body and noticed that her vision was pitch black. As a result of the immense amount of pain she was experiencing, all of her senses went blank and she found herself in a world of dark nothingness. To block out all of her agony, her mind shut off all of her senses so that it could try to reboot itself in a way. At the same time Ms. Thynax opened her eyes, so to did Thanatos. As he looked down at the teacher he had rendered unconscious not too long ago, he saw that she was now awake with a panicked expression on her face. Deciding that it would be too much trouble to just let her be as she is now, he decided that he should fix his mistake that he made due to being cranky from lack of sleep, and set her brain back to normal. To avoid getting too much suspicion from the rest of the class, Thanatos decided to use his energy manipulation without physically touching her directly. Although he normally touches the head or some part of the body of the person he manipulates, Thanatos does not need to. Touching what he was going to manipulate the energy of is a much more simple task than not touching, but his ability is not restricted to direct physical contact. Thanatos decided to first lower the amount of pain Ms. Thynax was feeling just slightly, then decided to activate her sense of sound so that he could quietly talk to her and tell her that he was going to help fix what he did. Once Thanatos lowered the amount of pain Ms. Thynax was experiencing and activated her hearing, he then manipulated the air between them using magic so they could converse quietly, just the two of them. ¡°Whatever you do, just shut up, listen, and answer accordingly without making a big scene. Got it?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Yeah¡­ Doesn¡¯t seem like I have much of a choice in this situation now do I?¡± Ms. Thynax replied while cringing in pain. ¡°If you want me to stop the pain and return your senses then do exactly as I say, okay?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Fine¡­ Just tell me what you¡¯re gonna do then get it over with¡­ I don¡¯t appear to have much of a choice and you seem to have already done something as I am able to actually hear you¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Right, so just shut up and let me do whatever I want to your brain, got it? I most likely won¡¯t tweak anything or alter your personality at all¡­ But I make no promises¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°You can do that!?!?¡± (Thynax) ¡°What did I just say about making a big scene?¡­ *Sigh*¡­ You know, people are going to notice that you¡¯re talking to someone and ignoring them if you keep on acting up.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°And who¡¯s fault is it that I¡¯m ignoring them when I can¡¯t even hear them!?!? *Sigh*¡­ Fine¡­ Let¡¯s just get this over with¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm.. I don¡¯t know now¡­ You seem to be acting awfully rude to the person who gave you your sense of sound back¡­ You know it will take you years to recover from the amount of damage I did to your brain before you can even use your other sense again, right? So the fact that you can even hear anything at all right now is a miracle in and of itself¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ugh¡­ Fine, will you please heal me? I¡¯ll let you fiddle with my brain as much as you want, just please fix me already¡­ And I wouldn¡¯t have any damage to heal if you didn¡¯t inflict it in the first place¡­¡± Ms. Thynax replied while muttering to herself a little in the end. ¡°Hm? And who was it that tried to wake me up? I¡¯m sure Shyelle would have warned you, she¡¯s a good girl and wouldn¡¯t go letting other people wake me up for no reason. Anyways, lets do this now before the obviousness of our conversation reaches new heights, its already blatant enough as is with the amount of time we¡¯ve spent talking¡­¡± (Thanatos) Once Thanatos said this, he began manipulating the pain enters of Ms. Thynax¡¯s brain, resetting them back to how they were configured originally, and then went and activated all of her 5 senses to their normal levels. While he did this, Thanatos also decided to slightly change per personality and behaviour a bit in his favour since Ms. Thynax already conceded to him doing so. When he was done, he could see Ms. Thynax looking around with startled eyes, blinking constantly. ¡®Huh!? How did he do that¡­ Well¡­ I guess I¡¯ll let what he did go this time¡­ But really¡­ How did he just turn on my senses like that¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax pondered to herself while seated on the floor. As soon as she realized that she was sitting right next to Thanatos on the floor, she hurriedly got up with a startled look on her face. She then looked around the classroom and saw everyone looking at her with concern in their eyes. ¡°I¡¯m okay everyone, thank you for your concern. So, shall we all start class now then?¡± asked Ms. Thynax as if the whole event had never happened. Ms. Thynax then walked up to the front of the classroom and decided to start teaching like nothing had happened, but as soon as she was about to start speaking, a student a student raised their hand to stop her and ask a question. ¡°Um, Ms. Thynax¡­ Not to completely ignore what just happened but¡­ You¡¯ve been asleep for over an hour¡­ Shouldn¡¯t we be going to train our magic in the arena now?¡­¡± (???) Just noticing the time, Ms. Thynax blinked in surprise and then tried to recall who the student who asking the question was. Thinking back, Ms. Thynax realized that she was the young beastwoman that Irene had fought in the evaluative battles, Louise Stormcrest. ¡°Ah, it appears you are correct¡­ Hm¡­ Well¡­ I guess there¡¯s no helping it. Come on everyone, we¡¯re going to the arena.¡± Ms. Thynax declared to the class after pondering over what to do for a short moment. Upon hearing this, Thanatos knew that he had to get up from his seat and slightly regretted repairing his Ms. Thynax¡¯s brain. ¡°Hey Shy, do you think you could please wake up Irene? I have a feeling that something may happen if I am the one to wake her.¡± asked Thanatos to his sister in order to avoid more things he would regret. ¡°Sure thing.¡± (Shyelle) Shyelle then proceeded to place her hand on Irene¡¯s shoulder and gently shake her awake. As soon as she did this, Irene clung onto Shyelle and started rubbing the side of her face against Shyelle¡¯s. After a few seconds of rubbing her face against Shyelle¡¯s, Irene then began to notice that it wasn¡¯t Thanatos who woke her up but Shyelle instead. Irene made a slightly depressed face, but then immediately began to smile right afterwards. ¡°Um, sorry. I thought you were Thanatos¡­¡± Irene explained to the girl she was still clinging to. ¡°Ah, thats understandable¡­ But, could you please stop clinging to me as if I were Thana?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Oh, whoops, sorry.¡± Irene apologized as she released her grasp on Shyelle. ¡°Um¡­ Speaking of Thana¡­ Where is he?¡­¡± Irene asked while slightly confused. ¡°Huh? What do you mean? He¡¯s right next to y-¡° Shyelle replied but stopped halfway once she noticed Thanatos and Susan were both missing. ¡°That vixen! That scaly, no-good, back-stabbing, ungrateful, stealing, snake-breathed dragon woman! Those two must have taken off to go nap together somewhere!!!!¡± Shyelle screamed out in sheer frustration upon noticing what had happened. ¡°Grrrrr¡­ She¡¯s lucky that Thana-nii likes her¡­ Otherwise I would chop her up into billions of tiny little pieces, that crafty snake¡­¡± Shyelle muttered while attempting to calm herself down. Irene who heard everything that Shyelle had said, was nodding her head along in agreement throughout Shyelle¡¯s entire rant and continued to do so until slightly after the rant had finished. ¡°Well¡­ Putting aside the fact that we both dislike her¡­ Where do you think they went?¡± Irene asked while thinking of where they could have gone. ¡°Hm¡­ As much as Thanatos would probably like to invite her into his bed and then sleep beside her without touching her, which I agree is cruel, I think that they may have actually gone to the arena instead¡­¡± Shyelle thought out calmly. ¡°Huh!? Really? I mean¡­ Those two seem like they love nothing but sleep¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Yeah, they do¡­ But my Thana-nii wouldn¡¯t leave me alone in an arena full of strange people he doesn¡¯t know!¡± Shyelle proclaimed proudly. ¡°Oh?¡­ But you¡¯re saying that he would leave you alone if they were strange people he did know, or if it wasn¡¯t an arena¡­ And even if he does show up, he would still be sleeping¡­¡± Irene thought out with a hint of sympathy in her voice. ¡°Yep! But thats part of what makes him my lovely Thana-nii!¡± replied Shyelle. ¡°Um¡­ Despite the fact that you guys don¡¯t have the last name, do you have any blood relation at all?¡­¡± Irene asked hesitantly. ¡°Not in the slightest.¡± Shyelle replied without hesitation. ¡°Okay¡­ So the brocon is within acceptable boundaries¡­¡± Irene silently muttered to herself. ¡°Even if we were directly blood related it would be perfectly acceptable!!!! So shut up!!!!¡± Shyelle snapped at Irene. ¡°Eeek, alright, alright. Yes, it is perfectly natural and genetically fine for a blood brother and sister to sleep together and have kids¡­¡± Irene said while making an expression that clearly showed she thought the opposite. ¡°You¡¯re just saying this because you want him to yourself, aren¡¯t you?¡± Shyelle replied with a cold glare. ¡°No I¡¯m not!!!! And besides that! Shouldn¡¯t we go after them!? They¡¯re all alone sleeping together you know!?¡± Irene replied bewilderedly. As soon as Shyelle heard this, she opened her eyes widely, grabbed hold of Irene¡¯s hand, and bolted out of the classroom like a shot out of a canon. ¡°You¡¯re right! We got off topic! Let¡¯s get over to them quickly!¡± Shyelle replied frantically. *** ¡°Hm, seems we¡¯re the first ones here like we thought.¡± Thanatos said to Susan while looking around the arena. ¡°Yep, good thing you used Shyelle as a distraction, how did you know it was going to work?¡± Susan asked curiously. ¡°Actually, I may be a genius, but I didn¡¯t expect them to get that distracted by each other. So I decided to use the chance that was given to get the hell out of there, and I figured that you would also like to do the same.¡± Thanatos replied honestly. ¡°Ah¡­ Good choice.¡± (Susan) ¡°Well, shall we do it right here? And you said you¡¯re fine with it right?¡± Thanatos asked while trying to avoid the occurrence of yet another problem. ¡°Yep, lets get to it.¡± Susan answered as she spread laid down on the ground and spread out her wings. Thanatos then went down to the ground, moved himself right up next to her, and wrapped his arms around her waist. ¡°Well, if you would be so kind.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Ah, yes.¡± (Susan) Susan then wrapped her wings around herself and Thanatos, made sure they were nice and tight, and then closed her eyes. ¡°Ahhhhh, you were right¡­ They do make excellent blankets¡­ I could get used to this¡­¡± Thanatos said as he closed his eyes. ¡°I don¡¯t mind a sleeping partner. So feel free to cuddle up anytime you feel like it.¡± Susan replied honestly. The two then fell asleep while laying down in the middle of the stadium with their arms wrapped around each other, as they used Susan¡¯s wings as a warm comfortable blanket. *** ¡°Huh!? What was that?¡­ Something just completely blurred past us¡­¡± (Louise) ¡°Yeah¡­ I think that was Thanatos and Susan¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Huh!? Those two lazy bums!? Where would those two be going in such a hurry!?!?¡± (Louise) ¡°I have an idea¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said as she approached the doorway to the arena with Louise next to her. As the doorway opened, Ms. Thynax and Louise looked around the arena to check if anyone was inside. Immediately when they saw the middle of the arena, their eyes stopped moving and their jaws dropped straight down. Right in the middle of the arena, Thanatos and Susan could be seen cuddling up to each other while they were both wrapped inside of Susan¡¯s wings. ¡°No way¡­ They rushed here just so they could nap?¡­ And why are they so close and cuddle up?¡­ If they like sleep so much shouldn¡¯t they like being by themselves and sleeping alone?¡­¡± Louise spoke out as she saw the two in the middle of the arena. ¡°Mhm¡­ Just as I thought¡­ They rushed here so they could take a nap without being disturbed¡­ Well¡­ Let¡¯s just try not to piss them off and avoid waking them up¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said to Louise as she shuddered at what might happen if the two sleeping were to wake up. ¡°Are you really afraid of them?¡­ I thought that he just caught you off guard and that was the only reason why you went down¡­¡± Louise asked curiously. ¡°No¡­ I wish I could say that was the case, but¡­ After being warned by his sister numerous times, I actually did put my guard up since I didn¡¯t know what to expect¡­ But he still managed to wipe the floor with me and that was while he was just stirring from his sleep¡­¡± Ms. Thynax replied honestly while shuddering in fear of the young man. ¡°Well¡­ Even if that¡¯s the case¡­ What about her? Why don¡¯t you try to wake her up?¡­¡± Louise asked while gesturing to Susan and Thanatos. ¡°Ah, her? I don¡¯t know¡­ I just have a feeling that it would be a bad idea¡­ Not as bad of an idea as waking up Thanatos¡­ But still a terrible idea¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Oh..¡± (Louise) ¡°Well, either way, let¡¯s go in. They came here specifically because they knew class would be here. They decided to sleep here so they would be in attendance if anything interesting happens, or so my guess would be¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said as she walked inside the arena. Just as she was stepping foot into the arena, another blur similar to the one before, shot right past her and into the arena. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Well, I guess there¡¯s the other one¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Huh!?!?!?¡± (Louise) ¡°His sister?¡­ You know¡­ The one that he threatened to kill the whole class for if you guys attempt to hurt her at all¡­¡± Ms. Thynax explained. ¡°Wait¡­ What the hell are those two!?!?!? How the hell do the move so fast!?!?!?¡± (Louise) ¡°How should I know?¡­ And there¡¯s nothing we can do just standing here thinking about it so lets go inside already.¡± (Thynax) Ms. Thynax and Louise then finally entered into the arena and went over to Shyelle and Irene, who were standing over Thanatos watching him sleep. ¡°How goes the hunt, girls?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Ah, he¡¯s a slippery one as always.¡± Shyelle replied with a feral grin. ¡°Yes, we found him sleeping with a lizard of some sort¡­ Is it alright if we cook the lizard and then take the prey we¡¯re after?¡± (Irene) ¡°Ah, no can do. Sorry. But he actually showed up here of all places for a reason, didn¡¯t he?¡± Ms. Thynax inquired. ¡°Indeed¡­¡± (Shyelle) The group of girls looked down towards the peacefully sleeping duo, then looked up towards the arena¡¯s entrance where they found the rest of the class walking in. Shyelle then cast wind magic around the sleeping duo to prevent any dust or noise from getting in, that way they could sleep without any disturbances. Normally, Shyelle wouldn¡¯t do this since it isn¡¯t her that is with Thanatos, but she decided to make an exception since her brother looked peaceful while sleeping there. ¡°I see you all made it!¡± Ms. Thynax shouted towards her class. ¡°Don¡¯t be shy, get your asses over here already!¡± (Thynax) As soon as she said this, her class then began to slowly make their way over, while looking at the sleeping Thanatos with frightful eyes. ¡°Just no one do anything to him and we won¡¯t get any trouble from him. Sound easy enough? I sure as hell never want to experience what happened ever again, and I¡¯m sure none of you want to experience it either. That being said, just don¡¯t go near him and we all get to keep our hides.¡± Ms. Thynax said towards her class in order to calm them down slightly. ¡°Umm, Ms. Thynax, we-¡° (???) ¡°Yes, I was on guard then, I fully prepared myself and he defeated me as easily as swatting a fly while he was just stirring from his sleep, in fact, he wasn¡¯t even stirring yet, that just appeared to be a response to him being awaken. God forbid we see what happens when he¡¯s stirring.¡± Ms. Thynax replied honestly before her student could even finish their question, causing the class to shudder in fear. ¡°Well, that aside, lets get started shall we? First, let¡¯s go over the basics.¡± (Thynax) ¡°First, let¡¯s have all of you make a ball out of your racial element.¡± Thynax instructed towards her class. After she said this, what she saw was a wide array of different sized balls of water, earth, fire, lightning, and wind. The biggest out of all of them however, was the one that was created by Shyelle. Aside from Shyelle, everyone in the class had a palm sized ball of their racial element floating above their hand, this was so they could demonstrate their control of their magic and how much power they put into it. Shyelle¡¯s magic ball was different however, Shyelle stood with her arm¡¯s hanging down at her sides, not having them doing anything, and in front of her, was a massive floating ball of lightning with a radius of about one metre. All the students who saw this had their jaws drop and their magically created elements dissipated into nothingness as they stared gawking at the spectacle in front of them. Although nearly everybody moves their body in some way in order to use magic, it is not necessary. Moving one¡¯s body or having the magic appear in front of one¡¯s hand is just simpler and much easier for people to do. Only people with the highest degree of magic control could use magic with zero movement at all, but Shyelle accomplished this in front of them like it was absolutely nothing, just mere child¡¯s play. Despite the fact that all of the students got into the highest level class, and proved themselves to be capable through the combat trial, Ms. Thynax still first needed to check if all her students knew the basics. Once she witnessed everyone using their magic, she decided to continue with the lesson and try to act as if Shyelle didn¡¯t stand out enormously. ¡°Okay, you all seem to be capable of using your own element¡­ Now how about other elements? Everyone line up and make a ball of the element I say, when I say it, in your hand.¡± Ms. Thynax instructed her class. Everyone then lined up side by side, with Shyelle at the end of the line and there being a lot of extra room between herself and the person next to her. ¡°Okay, everyone make a ball of lightning.¡± Ms. Thynax said once she made sure everyone with the exception of Thanatos and Susan were lined up. Once she finished speaking, every student with the exception of Shyelle stuck out their hand and produced a ball of lightning, with Shyelle creating the ball of lightning motionlessly. ¡°Well, everyone seems to be able to do that just fine¡­ Well, now make a ball of fire.¡± (Thynax) As soon as she finished saying this, the exact same spectacle as before occurred only this time, everyone produced fire instead of lightning. When Ms. Thynax saw Shyelle¡¯s control over an element that wasn¡¯t her racial trait, she became flabbergasted and decided to finally say something. ¡°Shyelle! What is the point in you even being here!? If you have that much control over your magic I don¡¯t see the point in you even coming to school!!¡± Ms. Thynax said as she finally had enough of the brother and sister pair. Right when Ms. Thynax finished yelling, massive chunks of earth began to come flying at her from behind. After getting belted numerous times, she turned around to look at who dared to attack her. When she turned around, she saw Thanatos and Susan still sleeping soundly on the ground, with a large crater of missing earth next to them. Seeing that Thanatos had somehow managed to fling rocks at her while he was sleeping, Ms. Thynax became wide-eyed and swallowed her saliva slowly. Someone who used magic while they were asleep, and were somehow seemingly comprehensive of what is going on around them, even with magic attempting to prevent them from comprehending anything, was completely unheard of. ¡°Uhh, uhhhhhhh¡­ W-Was th-that hi-him?¡­¡± Ms. Thynax asked nervously with a stutter. Looking around at her students, Ms. Thynax could see each one of her students nodding nervously with fear in their eyes. ¡°Um, if your done I¡¯d like to say something.¡± Shyelle said with her hand raised. ¡°Uh, uhhh¡­ Y-yes? Wha-What is it?¡± (Thynax) ¡°I wouldn¡¯t piss him off if I were you. Even if he¡¯s lazy and doesn¡¯t like to show it, but he¡¯s really overprotective¡­ I don¡¯t mind you getting angry with me, but he definitely would¡­¡± Shyelle warned while she stared lovingly at her brother. ¡°Uh, uhm¡­ Noted¡­ Well that doesn¡¯t matter¡­ Anyways, how the hell can you control magic so well?¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°That¡¯s a secret.¡± Shyelle replied in a joking demeanour with a wink. ¡°Ugh¡­ What¡¯s with you two anyways¡­ Never mind¡­ Let¡¯s just get back to the lesson¡­ Okay, everyone make a water ball.¡± (Thynax) Everyone then made a water ball and decided to act like they did¡¯t see anything, and the result was just like before. This happened again as well when everyone made a wind ball and an earth ball too. ¡°Is there any magic that you¡¯re not completely proficient in?¡­¡± Ms. Thynax asked Shyelle exasperatedly without expecting her to say yes. ¡°Umm¡­ No? I don¡¯t know¡­ Thana-nii is better than I am at these things¡­ Much better¡­¡± Shyelle replied honestly, causing everyone to take alternating glances at her and Thanatos. ¡°Did you just say ¡®much better¡¯?¡­¡± Ms. Thynax asked while stunned. ¡°Yup, much better¡­¡± Shyelle replied with a small tinge of jealousy in her voice, but mostly admiration. ¡°We-Well, moving on¡­ Everyone partner up with another person so we can move on to the next part of the lesson¡­¡± (Thynax) Once she said this, Thanatos and Susan opened their eyes. Susan then unwrapped her wings from around them, and they both stretched after rolling away from each other slightly. They then got up, and decided to join the lesson. ¡°So, what¡¯s going on Alexa?¡± Thanatos asked his teacher nonchalantly. ¡°Who said you can call me that!?!? And you woke up just in time¡­ Everyone is finding a partner now for the lesson.¡± Ms. Thynax replied as she slightly gave up in regards to how her student addressed her so casually. ¡°Oh, I see¡­ Well I guess it¡¯s time to go back to sleep again¡­¡± Thanatos replied. ¡°Wait!!! No one said you can do that! Now come back here and participate already!¡± Ms. Thynax shouted as she tried to get Thanatos to actually participate in her class. ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Fine¡­ But you know Alexa, I¡¯m really tired and I want to get this over with quickly¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Stop calling me by my first name! And too bad! You¡¯re going to participate now as I have a feeling you won¡¯t for the rest of the year!¡± (Thynax) ¡°Well I can¡¯t deny that I won¡¯t participate later¡­¡± Thanatos replied tiredly. ¡°Well, you and Susan will partner together for this then, as I¡¯m sure whatever partner you get will wet themselves when they find out what this part of the class entails¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said to Thanatos. After she says this to try and get Thanatos interested, to no avail, she decides to address the class as to what they are doing. ¡°Okay, now that everyone is teamed up, I will now tell you what you are all going to be doing. For this part of the lesson, you are going to have to divert the path of a basic magic element ball. No using any magic other than an elemental ball of magic, are we clear?¡± Ms. Thynax asked towards her class. ¡°Um¡­ Shouldn¡¯t we first be shown a demonstration or something?¡­ I think most of us have only blocked or evaded magic, never diverted or redirected it¡­¡± Louise said to Ms. Thynax nervously with a raised hand. ¡°Hm¡­ I guess so¡­ Okay, Susan, get over here since you were sleeping earlier as well.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Awww. Fine¡­ But am I attacking or defending?¡± Susan asked Ms. Thynax. ¡°You¡¯re attacking, it would be a bit improper to have me attack you in order to demonstrate how to defend¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°I guess¡­ Okay, let¡¯s get this over with then.¡± (Susan) As soon as Susan said so, she created a massive fireball in front of her and hurled it at Ms. Thynax with incredible speed. As the fireball was going towards her, Ms. Thynax raised her hands and the fireball redirected to a spot just beside her without touching it. ¡°As you saw, you have to try to tap into what your opponent created and then take control and move it as you want to. Now the more you do it, the better you will be. If you are able to take full control of your opponent¡¯s magic, then make it dissipate, no fooling around with it.¡± Ms. Thynax said towards her class. ¡°Hey Alexa, if you want me to do this, you should probably partner with me if you don¡¯t want anyone to get killed.¡± Thanatos said towards Ms. Thynax. ¡°Hm? Why is that?¡­ And stop referring to me so casually!!!!¡± (Thynax) ¡°Well, my magic isn¡¯t exactly easy to tap into, even if I do hold back as much as possible. It would be safest if I did it with you, although its not like I care what happens either way¡­¡± Thanatos explained. ¡°Err¡­ Is that so¡­ Well, fine¡­ Your sister already showed off earlier and claimed that you are much better than she is¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Mhm¡­ Well, after you I suppose. Oh, and I wouldn¡¯t suggest using a fireball or holding back at all¡­¡± Thanatos recommended to Ms. Thynax. ¡°Um, okay¡­ Well, lets do this¡­ And I guess some payback for what you did earlier would be nice too¡­¡± (Thynax) Ms. Thynax then raised her hands to her side, and gathered an enormous amount of lightning all around her. Her body became completely enshrouded in lightning, and a tidal wave of electrocuted lightning formed in front of her. The tidal wave then began moving towards Thanatos as it gained even more size as it moved, while Ms. Thynax shot out a massive bolt of lightning from the supply she had surrounded herself with before. ¡°Well, this should teach him some manners¡­¡± Ms. Thynax muttered to herself with a wry smile. Just as the tidal wave and bolt of lightning were about to hit Thanatos, he suddenly raised his right hand up to his left side, then backhanded the magic away from him towards the side of the arena. Ms. Thynax who saw this, had her eyes wide open and her jaw dropped low in shock. After redirecting the magic Thanatos brought his hand up to his mouth and let out a loud yawn. ¡°*Yawn*¡­ Hm¡­ Was that it? Well, can I go back to sleep now, Alexa?¡± Thanatos asked Ms. Thynax. ¡°Wha-Wha-What¡­ What the hell was that!?!?!? How in the hell did you do that!?!? There was no way you had time to focus and tap into the magic to change its course! Let alone send it flying away as if it were nothing! Just what the hell are you!?!?¡± Ms. Thynax questioned while screaming. ¡°Yeesh, you¡¯re so loud Alexa¡­ You know you¡¯ll never get married if you keep yelling at people like this¡­ Well¡­ Good night.¡± Thanatos said as he went over to the stands of the arena and sat down to take a nap. ¡°Who the hell said you can call me Alexa!?!? And what was that about never getting married!?!?!? How do you know I¡¯m not in a relationship right now, hm!?¡­ Ugh¡­ Such a pain in the ass¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said as she vented out her frustration at the somehow already sleeping Thanatos. ¡®How the hell does he fall asleep so fast anyways¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself. Ms. Thynax then took a look around and noticed all of her students staring at either her or Thanatos with wide eyes. After all, they had just seen a student who does nothing but try to sleep just redirect an incredibly strong attack from their teacher as if he was swatting away a fly. When she took a closer look, Ms. Thynax could notice that the only ones who didn¡¯t seem to react were Shyelle, Irene, and Susan. Puzzled by this, she decided to ask them. The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation. ¡°Shyelle, Irene, Susan. You all don¡¯t seem that surprised by what just happened. What do you know about him?¡± Ms. Thynax inquired. ¡°Everything!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Enough to be interested.¡± (Irene) ¡°Not really anything.¡± (Susan) All three girls replied honestly at the same time towards their teacher. ¡°Ugh¡­ Okay¡­ Shyelle, Irene¡­ Do you know what the hell he is?¡­ Because clearly he¡¯s not human¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said exasperatedly. ¡°What was that, Alexa? I think I just heard you call Thana-nii ¡®clearly not human¡¯¡­¡± Shyelle replied while sending Ms. Thynax an ice cold glare, causing her to shiver. Noticing that she had stepped on a land mine, Ms. Thynax immediately broke out into a cold sweat at her furious student. ¡°Just for your information, Alexa. Thana is completely, 100% human. And if you keep slandering him by saying that he¡¯s some freak, I will get VERY angry.¡± Shyelle warned her teacher in a cold tone of voice, before leaving to go sit on her resting brother¡¯s lap. ¡®Great¡­ Now both the freaks are pissed¡­ I need to talk to that bastard who let them in here in the first place¡­ What the hell was he thinking!?!?¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself. After looking up from the ground she noticed she was staring at, she saw Susan and Irene looking at her with disgust and resentment in their eyes. ¡°What!? Why are you two pissed at me as well!?!?¡± Ms. Thynax asked frantically. ¡°What a bad person you are¡­¡± Susan said before leaving so she could use Thanatos¡¯s shoulder as a pillow. ¡°Indeed¡­¡± Irene said as she followed behind Susan to do the same thing as her. ¡®What the hell is with those girls¡­ Like really¡­ Why do they even care about what happens to him? And why is that Irene girl acting so much differently today in comparison to yesterday?¡­ Ugh¡­ What a pain¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax pondered to herself before turning back to her class so she could resume teaching. ¡°Well, what do you all think you¡¯re doing? You¡¯re all just standing around doing nothing, get back to work!¡± Ms. Thynax shouted to her class before shaking her head in exhaustion at her new batch of students. *** From the stands while seated on her brother¡¯s lap, Shyelle was looking at Ms. Thynax with detest and clear focus in her eyes. As much as she enjoyed being with Thanatos, as well as sexually harassing him, Shyelle would never let anyone slander her brother. Although Thanatos doesn¡¯t care what anybody thinks about anything, Shyelle still believes that people should view her brother in as good a light as she does, and anybody that doesn¡¯t do so needs to be corrected. ¡®Hm¡­ Should I teach her a lesson, or shouldn¡¯t I¡­ Hmm¡­ Well, I suppose I¡¯ll let her be for now, but if she tries to do anything negative at all to Thana¡­¡¯ Shyelle thought to herself. As Shyelle made up her mind on how to proceed in dealing with Ms. Thynax, she suddenly became aware of her surroundings. On both sides of Thanatos, Shyelle could see Irene and Susan using his shoulders for pillows while they all slept. While thinking that she doesn¡¯t mind if both Irene and Susan are around when she does it, Shyelle decides to begin sexually harassing her brother yet again. Shyelle then turned around and wrapped both of her legs around Thanatos¡¯s waist, she then grabbed hold of Thanatos¡¯s head and stuck it in her cleavage, and as she did so, she began to grind her hips against his crotch. The two girls who were sleeping on Thanatos¡¯s shoulders woke up first to see what Shyelle was doing. Irene and Susan immediately became wide-eyed, and only Irene seemed like she was okay with what Shyelle was doing. ¡°What are you doing!?¡± Susan exclaimed frantically. ¡°Huh!? Hm¡­ I should have thought of that, shouldn¡¯t I¡­ Damn¡­ Well, got room for another?¡± Irene asked after coming to her senses and muttering about her missed opportunity. ¡°Hm¡­ Usually I might say yes, I think¡­ But not this time, okay?¡± Shyelle responded towards Irene¡¯s request. ¡°Awww, okay¡­ But I want in next time!¡± (Irene) ¡°What the hell is wrong with you two?¡­¡± Susan muttered silently. As soon as Susan said this, Thanatos woke up from his nap due to him being suffocated by Shyelle¡¯s breasts. As soon as he realized what was going on, Thanatos closed his eyes so that he could just pass out from lack of oxygen, as he knew that Shyelle wouldn¡¯t be so careless as to kill him. When Shyelle realized what he was trying to do, she let go of Thanatos¡¯s head and looked at him worriedly. ¡°You know it¡¯s dangerous to pass out from lack of oxygen, right?¡­¡± Shyelle asked worriedly. ¡°Yup, you know it¡¯s also dangerous to suffocate a person in order to wake them up, right?¡± Thanatos retorted while lightly scolding. ¡°Huh!? Really? Who would have thought...¡± Shyelle replied with an innocent face and a clueless tone. ¡°That aside, are you about done grinding against my crotch? I know that you try to do so often but¡­ I¡¯m really tired right now¡­ Could you please let me sleep for once instead of trying to have sex with me?¡­¡± Thanatos asked sincerely with exhaustion painted on his face. ¡°Yeesh! How little did you sleep last night!? If I knew it would lead to me being bluntly asked to not do sexual acts towards you, I might not have tried to ra-¡­ Make an advance on you this morning!¡± Shyelle exclaimed as she stopped herself midway from admitting to attempted rape. ¡°You know... We both know it¡¯s called rape¡­ You don¡¯t need to pretend it¡¯s something other than that¡­ And we both know I really don¡¯t care that you attempted it since I woke up of my own accord anyways.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Hm¡­ I guess¡­ But that still doesn¡¯t answer the question of how little sleep did you get last night, you know¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Only about an hour¡­ So please let me go back to sleep already¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Fine¡­ Since it''s Thana-nii who¡¯s asking¡­ But I really don¡¯t want you to go back to sleep¡­¡± Shyelle said with a pout as she finally began to slow her grinding to a halt. ¡°Thanks.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Wait a minute¡­ You only got an hour of sleep!?!? That¡¯s blasphemous! What were you doing all night!?!?¡± Susan said astonished. ¡°Just had to go out and do some menial tasks¡­ But yes¡­ Now if only I had a bed and some sheets¡­¡± Thanatos replied as he thought about the soft comfy bed in his room. ¡°Ugh¡­ Come on¡­ I said any time, right?¡­ Let¡¯s do this¡­¡± Susan said while looking at Thanatos with pity. ¡°Thank you.¡± (Thanatos) Thanatos then got up and Susan laid down across several seats as she spread out her wings and arms. He then laid down right up against her, and she wrapped herself around him to keep him warm and comfortable. ¡°Now I wish I had wings¡­¡± Shyelle muttered under her breath while Irene nodded in agreement. ¡°Wake me up when we¡¯re leaving here or if something really interesting happens.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Okay¡­ And sleep well for now, but I¡¯ll be back later.¡± Shyelle said with a mischievous grin. ¡°Okay! And good night! Although I¡¯m really tired too¡­¡± (Irene) ¡°Hm?¡­ And why are you tired Irene?¡­¡± Shyelle asked once Thanatos had fallen asleep. ¡°Ah, I also got little sleep last night, I only got a few hours.¡± Irene replied with a frown. ¡°Hmmm¡­ Is that so¡­ So you weren¡¯t up with Thanatos the entire time in the bathroom?¡­¡± Shyelle inquired once she made sure that Susan was asleep as well. ¡°Huh? What are you talking about?¡± Irene replied as if she had no idea what Shyelle was talking about. ¡°I meant Thanatos taking you out of your room, going into the bathroom, then staying up for several hours without leaving the room.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Bathroom? I went out to get some necessities and was caught up having bad dreams¡­ I have no idea what you¡¯re talking about.¡± (Irene) ¡°Mhmm¡­¡± (Shyelle) Shyelle then sat in the seat next to Susan and Thanatos¡¯s heads in order to watch the class after she finished inquiring Irene. ¡®She thinks she can lie to me¡­ Ah well¡­ I guess Thana-nii told her not to tell anyone¡­ But still, I¡¯ll have to do something about that bitch teaching the class and the bathroom slut another time¡­¡¯ Shyelle thought to herself. As Irene felt the atmosphere around Shyelle get colder from her mood, she decided to sit on the other side of Susan and Thanatos by their feet. In order to survive being around the psychotic sister, Irene felt she needed to keep as much distance from her as possible while following Thanatos¡¯s orders. *** Not a single person could comprehend what was going on in the stands. When Ms. Thynax looked back up to the stands again after Thanatos and the group of girls left, she could see Shyelle grinding her hips against Thanatos¡¯s crotch with his face buried in her chest. ¡°What the hell is wrong with those two!?!?¡± Ms. Thynax yelled out, venting her frustration. Just as she was moving to go over to the stands to stop them, Louise grabbed hold of her upper arm and stopped her from going. ¡°Remember what happened with the massive electric tidal wave and the humungous bolt of lightning?¡­ I wouldn¡¯t interfere with them if I were you, even if you are the teacher¡­¡± Louise warned. ¡°That doesn¡¯t matter right now!!!! They could at least have some public decency! I mean look at them! What is she doing to him! It¡¯s bad enough he was trying to sleep during class, but her sexually harassing him in front of everybody while he sleeps is even worse!!!!¡± (Thynax) ¡°I can¡¯t agree with what their doing but¡­ I¡¯m sure it will all work out somehow.¡± (Louise) ¡°You better be right¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said as she noticed that Thanatos and the two other girls woke up. ¡°Hm, they¡¯re finally up¡­ Maybe they can join the class again now¡­ Wait a minute¡­ She¡¯s still grinding against him even¡­ And why doesn¡¯t he stop her!?!?¡­ Ugh¡­ Those damn siblings, I hate this class already¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hey!!!! That better not be including the rest of your students¡­ And it seems like she stopped the action of dry humping him like an untrained dog.¡± Louise pointed out to Ms. Thynax. ¡°Hm, that¡¯s surprising¡­ That girl seems to be one of the most nymphomaniacal people I¡¯ve ever met¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said in half-amazement. ¡°Well I won¡¯t deny that even though I don¡¯t really know anything about her, but¡­ Is he going back to sleep wrapped in the draconian¡¯s wings again?¡­¡± (Louise) ¡°Ugh¡­ Seems so¡­ Such a pain in the ass¡­ Well, I¡¯ll talk to them once they all settle down so that way everyone here doesn¡¯t die in the process¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said with a large sigh. ¡°Well, seems like now¡¯s your chance, but I¡¯m not sure what the mood is up there since that Shyelle girl seems to be pouting an awful lot and that Irene woman seems to be keeping a tremendous amount of distance from her¡­¡± Louise pointed out. ¡°Guess so¡­ Everyone, brace yourselves for whatever may happen! I¡¯m going to try and bring them back down here again! If I don¡¯t make it back¡­ Then make sure to sue that goddamn Principle for me as a result of lack of hazard pay!¡± Ms. Thynax informed her class loudly. As Ms. Thynax walked towards the group of misfit students she doesn¡¯t want in her class, she felt the air and Shyelle¡¯s mood get colder and colder the closer she got. When she finally got there, she felt that the tension in the air was thick enough to remain stationary in a hurricane, and she decided to try and break it. ¡°H-Hey, y-you kn-know th-th-that c-class i-i-is st-still g-going o-on, r-right?¡± Ms. Thynax asked the girls with a massive nervous stutter. ¡°Hm? What was that? I can¡¯t understand you when you don¡¯t speak properly.¡± Shyelle retorted coldly. ¡°I-I s-said, y-you know th-that c-class i-is still g-going o-on, right?¡± Ms. Thynax repeated. ¡°One more time, still didn¡¯t sound like proper English¡­¡± Shyelle mocked her stuttering teacher. ¡°I-I said, you know that class is still going on, right!?¡± Ms. Thynax shouted, finally getting her confidence back. As a result of her shouting, Thanatos¡¯s eyes shot open along with Susan¡¯s, and they immediately locked onto Ms. Thynax. ¡°Ugh, Alexa¡­ Why are you so damn loud in the morning? You know people are trying to sleep here, right?¡± Thanatos scolded his teacher. ¡°U-um, sorry¡­ Wait a minute!! Get your ass up and down to the arena! And stop calling me by my first name already you disrespectful brat!¡± Ms. Thynax snapped at Thanatos. As soon as Ms. Thynax finished yelling at Thanatos, she could feel the cold piercing eyes of Shyelle boring into her, as if trying to torture her just by staring. Ms. Thynax shuddered then turned to face Shyelle head on, that way she too would get some words of reprimand. ¡°And you. What do you think you¡¯re doing? It¡¯s bad enough that your brother is trying to sleep all through class, you sexually harass him in front of everyone here, and you don¡¯t seem to have any respect for me as your teacher at all whatsoever. Then you make a giant scene where all you need to do is act like everyone else and use magic like they do, why do you have to show off and use magic in a way that every normal person cannot? I don¡¯t understand the two of you at all!.¡± Ms. Thynax vented her frustration towards Shyelle. ¡°You done yet, Alexa? You should sit down, take a load off, relax, sleep. I really don¡¯t care. Just stop pestering me before I get really angry.¡± Thanatos said as Ms. Thynax could see dancing sparks of electricity in his eyes. ¡®What is with that weird electricity that sometimes runs through his eyes?¡­ Seriously, what the hell is with these two kids¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself. ¡°Oy, Alexa, do you mind going back to your class now? I¡¯d like to go back to sleep.¡± Thanatos said while giving a nod to Susan as if to say he¡¯s handled everything. ¡°Get your asses down there! You¡¯re part of the damn class! Now if you don¡¯t get down there you¡¯re going to face a lot of trouble.¡± Ms. Thynax warned. Once she finished speaking, Ms. Thynax could see the sparks of electricity in Thanatos¡¯s eyes increase in number dramatically, as he emitted a lightning sharp, cold aura, that felt like it would freeze you solid then slice you into tiny pieces just by approaching it. ¡°Are you done, Alexa? Go teach your class, we¡¯re busy here.¡± Thanatos said coldly. ¡°U-Um¡­ Y-Yes¡­ I-I¡¯ll be going now¡­¡± Ms. Thynax stuttered in defeat as she turned and made her way back to the rest of her students. ¡°Such a pain¡­ Well, let¡¯s go back to sleep.¡± Thanatos muttered out with Susan nodding in agreement. ¡°Wait, Thana-nii.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Hm?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°I think I might go down there, test the waters with the class, you know¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Okay, come wake me up when we¡¯re done here or if something interesting happens.¡± Thanatos told her once more. ¡°Will do!¡± Shyelle said with a playful salut. Once Thanatos and Susan fell back asleep again, Shyelle crouched down and stared at Thanatos''s sleeping face, while her own face emanated a feeling of sheer bliss just from watching him. ¡°Shall we go down there?¡± Irene asked. ¡°Yeah, I guess¡­¡± Shyelle answered dejectedly. Shyelle and Irene then made their way down towards the stage area to meet with their class so they could attend the lesson. Once they arrived in front of the rest of their class, everyone looked at them as if in shock. ¡°U-Um, yes? What do you need?¡± Ms. Thynax asked the duo as she saw them approaching. ¡°Hm? What do you mean? We¡¯re here for the lesson obviously.¡± Shyelle answered while sound incredulous at her teacher¡¯s question. ¡°O-Oh, right¡­ Of course¡­ So, what changed your mind if I may ask?¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Just a change of heart¡­¡± Shyelle vaguely answered. ¡°I see¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°So, what are we all doing now?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°We¡¯re still continuing with diverting magic attacks¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°I see¡­ Shall I partner with you?¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Um¡­ Sure¡­ Do you want me to attack massively like with your brother, or with basic attacks like the rest of the class?¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Either one is fine.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Okay¡­ Well, everyone! Back to work! Irene, you can partner with Louise. Shyelle, let¡¯s move a little away from everyone else, and I want to talk to you after the lesson is over¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Okay, I wanted to speak with you too.¡± (Shyelle) Shyelle and Ms. Thynax then traveled a large distance away from the rest of the class so that they could attack with a lot more power. ¡°You can attack first.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Thank you, that would be great.¡± Shyelle replied with a mischievous grin. ¡®What is she up to¡­ Maybe this was a bad idea¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself. As soon as she finished her thoughts, a massive dome of earth burst out of the ground separating Ms. Thynax and Irene from the rest of the class. ¡°I figured you wouldn¡¯t want me to show off in front of the rest of the class.¡± Shyelle said in a sarcastic tone. ¡°Uh huh¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Well, shall we start talking now or shall we proceed with the lesson?¡­¡± Shyelle asked Ms. Thynax. ¡°Well considering you don¡¯t seem to care much about standing out¡­ I guess we can talk first¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm, true¡­ I don¡¯t care very much about standing out¡­ But my brother does. He told me to try and fit in as much as possible before we came here¡­ It seems like a massive pain, especially since we already stand out¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Mhm¡­ Well you know you two aren¡¯t making it any better, right?¡± (Thynax) ¡°True. But the fact that we¡¯re trying at all is why you are all still alive. If it wasn¡¯t for that fact, either Thana or myself would have killed everyone here a long time ago, especially that Principle person.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°And why are you here at all? There seems to be no reason why you two would need to be here¡­ Also, why is it so important that you guys fit in?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm¡­ Well both of those questions really have the same answer¡­ Despite how he may seem, Thana is actually quite doting you know? He always gives me whatever I want, with the exception of one thing in particular¡­¡± Shyelle answered while muttering a complaint under her breath. ¡°He doesn¡¯t seem all that doting¡­ It appears to be more along the lines of you believing that being in his mere presence is a blessed thing to be grateful for about in and of itself¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°Well I won¡¯t deny that, but¡­ That¡¯s not what I¡¯m trying to say¡­ He really is surprisingly doting¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Whatever, but what does his being doting have to do with you being here?¡± (Thynax) ¡°He probably wants me to have a normal life or something along those lines. You know, not sleeping under trees all day in the forest, or sleeping all day in some rocky cave, or sleeping not in civilization somewhere¡­ And I can tell you right now that he isn¡¯t doing it for himself, he finds this whole place a giant hassle, he really despises having to be here¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°If he despises it so much then go somewhere else to live a normal life!!!! And besides! Being in the most advanced magic class isn¡¯t exactly normal you know! Very few people get into it!¡± (Thynax) ¡°Well we wouldn¡¯t want him to be too bored, would we? Now, let¡¯s get this over with, you can go first.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°*Sigh*¡­ Fine, but don¡¯t blame me if you can¡¯t divert it and something happens to you.¡± (Thynax) As she warns Shyelle, Thynax lifts her arms and the ground inside the make-shift dome begins to rumble. Lightning begins to dance in the air all around the dome as chunks of earth lift up off the ground. The water in the air then began to condense in several pocketed areas and form balls of water as lightning seeped into them. Ms. Thynax then brought all the water and earth over to her, lighting the earth on fire, and had all the elements she prepared surround her. ¡°You ready?¡± Ms. Thynax asked while grinning but with a lack of confidence in her voice. ¡°*Yawn*¡­ Yeah, yeah¡­ Let¡¯s just do this already¡­¡± (Shyelle) As soon as Shyelle said this, Ms. Thynax flung all the flaming earth and electrified water in a bee-line straight towards Shyelle, and hidden behind the water and earth were several blades of wind she had prepared after gathering all the elements around her. While the elements were hurled at her with tremendous speed, Shyelle simply raised her right hand in front of her, while her other hand went up to cover her mouth as she yawned once more. ¡®What is she doing? I know her brother is a freak but she says that he¡¯s much better than her¡­ Is she not taking this seriously?¡­ I just flung every single element at her and she¡¯s just standing there like nothing is hap-¡® Ms. Thynax was thinking when her thoughts were suddenly and quickly halted. When Ms. Thynax looked at the barrage she had released towards Shyelle, she noticed that everything was stopped in mid-air. Not a single one of the elements that she had launched at her were moving an inch. Then, Shyelle flung her raised hand up towards the direction of the roof of the dome, and all the elements that Ms. Thynax had hurled at Shyelle went crashing into it! ¡°Huh¡­ Wh-What?¡­ Huh?¡­ Wha-Wha-What j-just happened?¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡°I diverted it, isn¡¯t that what you wanted?¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Well yeah, sure¡­ But you managed to stop it right before it got to you like it was nothing! How!? And then¡­ Oh never mind¡­ I give up on trying to understand the two of you¡­ Do whatever the hell you want just don¡¯t bother the rest of the class¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said while giving up all attempts at trying to understand the strange duo that joined her class incredibly late. Once Ms. Thynax had abandoned trying to understand Thanatos and Shyelle, the dome that surrounded Shyelle and herself began to recede into the ground slowly, as Shyelle skipped off towards Thanatos cheerfully. ¡®A normal life, huh?¡­ Well you¡¯re not exactly making it easy on yourselves¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself. Taking a look around, Ms. Thynax could see all of her students watching her with questioning eyes, all wondering what had happened inside the mysterious dome. The only ones that could make a dome like Shyelle did, would be a select few of the dwarves in the class, along with Thanatos and Ms. Thynax. Since Shyelle is human, this caused everyone present to once again realize just how terrifying an existence she is. ¡°Yeah, yeah¡­ I know¡­ She¡¯s a freak, and her brother¡¯s a freak, now get back to work¡­¡± Ms. Thynax said as she held up her hands and abruptly shot several lightning bolts towards her students for them to divert. Since the students didn¡¯t expect her to randomly shoot lightning bolts at them, most of them created a pillar of earth out of the ground in order to block the bolts, while only a few diverted it by a hairsbreadth. Seeing most of her students just blocking the attacks, Ms. Thynax sighed in exhaustion and went over to the stands where Thanatos lay sleeping. ¡°Louise, make sure everyone does what they¡¯re supposed to, I¡¯m gonna go talk to the sleeping beauties.¡± Ms. Thynax said as she pointed towards Susan and Thanatos. ¡°Okay, will do.¡± Louise responded with a firm nod as she went back to practicing. When Ms. Thynax arrived near Thanatos and Susan, Shyelle who was sitting next to them looked over to her with a curious and questioning gaze. ¡°What are you doing here? Our talk is over.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Yeah, yeah, I know¡­ You kids are driving me crazy, and Louise should be able to handle the class, so I¡¯m going to take a load off and rest my eyes for a little.¡± (Thynax) As soon as Ms. Thynax said this, Shyelle¡¯s eyes shot wide open, completely shocked at her teacher¡¯s sudden change in behaviour and ethics. ¡°What the hell happened to you in the past minute?¡­¡± Shyelle asked sarcastically with a hint of seriousness in her voice. ¡°What? You think I¡¯m always a stickler like that? Jeez, I thought I left a better first impression on you lot¡­ You should know that I have to get through the effort of trying to help you kids before I can give up and then just call it quits. If I just never attempt to get you to participate, then I look bad, but if I do try and it doesn¡¯t succeed, then there is nothing that can be done about it.¡± Ms. Thynax explained. ¡°So how does that lead to you taking a nap instead of teaching the class?¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Huh? They¡¯re fine! Louise is looking after them! Besides, they should be able to look after themselves at their age. And how this led to me going to take a nap¡­ It felt like a good idea since you guys have exhausted the ever living hell out of me¡­ I mean what the hell is with you guys anyways?¡­ *Sigh*¡­ Whatever, doesn¡¯t matter now since I gave it a shot and it failed. Now we just have to get through the semester while maintaining appearances.¡± Ms. Thynax said with a light wink. ¡°I see¡­ So you¡¯re not a complete pain in the ass¡­ You have no tolerance at all in regards to men, seeing your reaction to him naked, but you¡¯re not a complete pain in the ass¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°What does me seeing my student naked and wanting to avoid talking to him while he was naked have to do with anything!?!? And what do you mean I¡¯m a pain in the ass!?!?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Ugh¡­ What I mean was, if you didn¡¯t make the effort to try and make Thanatos and myself participate in the first place, none of these problems would have happened¡­ He would have just been the lazy guy who slept all the time in class and I would be the innocent cute little sister who always followed him around¡­ But you made us participate and have been a giant pain in the ass all day.¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Grrr¡­ I see what you¡¯re trying to say there about me being a pain, and I get that much¡­ But what does me not wanting to talk to Thanatos while he¡¯s naked have to do with anything!?!?¡± (Thynax) ¡°Well for starters you need to learn how to relax more, let loose¡­ Like really, what¡¯s wrong with him being naked while you talk to him? You did come early after all, and he¡¯s your student who¡¯s not even an adult left, you can¡¯t handle seeing a naked student in front of you? What are you afraid of? That you¡¯re going to pounce on him just because he¡¯s naked? Or that he will pounce on you just because he¡¯s naked? Because we both no the latter won¡¯t happen with the way he is. You acted like it was your first time seeing a boy naked, and the first time I saw him naked I didn¡¯t try to avoid him at all costs! In fact, I tried to ride on him like there was no tomorrow.. But it didn¡¯t work out for me. *Sigh*¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°There are a lot of things wrong with you, you know¡­ And my reaction was perfectly normal! It isn¡¯t normal to immediately try to have sex with your brother just because you saw him naked!¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm¡­ You didn¡¯t say anything about it being the first time you saw a boy naked¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°Eh?¡­ Shut up!!!! Let me go to sleep already!!!!¡± (Thynax) As Ms. Thynax finished shouting, both her and Shyelle could see movement coming form Thanatos out of the corner of their eyes. ¡°Will you both shut up and let me go back to sleep already?¡­ Shy, you promised to wake me only when we were either done or something interesting happened¡­ Please speak now if either of those criteria are filled, otherwise I¡¯m erecting a barrier around my bed for a week.¡± Thanatos warned as he woke up in a bad mood due to the shouting. When Shyelle heard him threaten her with the act of secluding himself from her in bed, Shyelle became wide-eyed once more and fell into a panic. ¡°T-Thana!!! Thana-nii! Something interesting did happen! You don¡¯t need to keep me out of your bed! Really, something did happen!¡­¡± Shyelle said with panicked eyes. ¡°Oh, then what is it? If it¡¯s nothing then I¡¯m not letting you near my bed for a week you know?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°O-Oh, well, I found out Ms. Thynax isn¡¯t a complete pain in the ass! She was just being one temporarily so she looked like she actually tried, that way we all could move on!¡± (Shyelle) ¡°You don¡¯t need to say it like that¡­¡± Ms. Thynax muttered¡­ ¡°I already knew Alexa wasn¡¯t a complete pain in the ass, now is that all? You¡¯re down to being kicked out for three days, if there¡¯s nothing more than you¡¯re not allowed in¡­¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Uh, uhhh, ummm¡­¡± Shyelle moaned out while looking around frantically for something interesting. Seeing Shyelle in a panic due to her brother¡¯s threats, Ms. Thynax had completely mixed feelings for the young woman. ¡®I knew she was a complete brocon but¡­ This is a bit ridiculous right?¡­ And I wouldn¡¯t take Thanatos to be the kind of guy to either threaten or hold up said threat to his sister¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought while she looked at the two with curiosity. Looking around the arena frantically, Shyelle finally locked her eyes onto something she thought was interesting and decided was worth a shot to save her bed privileges. ¡°I-I found something! Yes! I found something interesting Thana!¡± Shyelle shouted with confidence and receding panic in her voice. ¡°Oh? And what would that be?¡± (Thanatos) ¡°Well, Irene seems to be fighting with that Louise girl again, it has something to do with napping in class I think¡­¡± Shyelle said as she strained her ears towards the two girls bickering in the arena. ¡°Hm? What about napping in class!?¡± Thanatos said as he shot upwards and shook on Susan¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Susan, get up! This is important! Apparently there is some form of debate going on about napping in class!¡± Thanatos shouted to his comrade in arms, causing her to shoot upwards with the same speed as Thanatos did, alarming both Shyelle and Ms. Thynax. ¡°Jeez¡­ Now I know how to get their attention¡­¡± Ms. Thynax muttered to herself. ¡°Shut up, Alexa. I won¡¯t listen if you tell me not to sleep in class, although I doubt you would anymore after how today went.¡± (Thanatos) ¡°I said stop calling me Alexa! And you can¡¯t speak to me like that! I¡¯m your teacher! And you shut up! It¡¯s your fault for how today went!¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm? Did you say something Alexa?¡± Thanatos said as he looked away from the two girls in the arena he was staring at in order to see Ms. Thynax. ¡°Ugh¡­ Never mind¡­ I¡¯m going to sleep, if you want to get into their argument be my guest, but keep me out of it. Shyelle, please stay here so I have an excuse to be here as well.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Hm¡­ It seems a lot more tempting to go with Thana though¡­ And you haven¡¯t exactly done anything in our favour today¡­ Why should I help you?¡­¡± (Shyelle) ¡°I will let your brother sleep in class and I will let you sit on his lap for the rest of the semester without disturbing the two of you.¡± (Thynax) ¡°Deal.¡± Thanatos and Shyelle said in harmony, immediately after Ms. Thynax made her proposal. Shyelle then sat down beside Ms. Thynax, and Susan and Thanatos walked down to the stage area to join into the argument. ¡®I¡¯m surprised that worked¡­ Although if I go back on that deal I have a bad feeling about whatever will happen to me¡­¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself while glancing nervously at Shyelle who is sitting beside her. ¡°You know if you ever break that deal, if he doesn¡¯t kill you then I will? And I¡¯m not sure which one of us would make it more painful¡­¡± Shyelle said towards her teacher. ¡°*Swallowing saliva*¡­ Yep¡­ I had a feeling that was the case¡­¡± (Thynax) ¡®These two are insane!!!!¡¯ Ms. Thynax thought to herself while her eyes showed full panic at what she had just done.
