Chapter 98:End of The Fist Class

It only took a few moments for Adryan to stop laughing but he still had a smile on his face.

"You shouldn't blame Flora so much, she is still your teacher even though you are now in my charge.

What do you think she would say if she knew what you just said?"

At the redhead's words, Hazel nodded showing that she understood.

"Sorry for that, Teacher Holmes."

Adryan shook his head as he waved his hand down.

"No problem after all, what she doesn't know can't hurt her"

When he said that the smile on his face grew a bit and Hazel couldn't help but smile back.

Flora inside Adryan simply fell silent but he could still hear her growling under her breath.

Deciding that bothering the woman was enough, he changed the subject.

"Hazel, since this is our first class, it would be a good idea to finish it early, we just met and you still haven't fully recovered from the blow I gave you"

'So soon?' the green-haired thought while frowning.

She hoped the class would be longer but she also knew she couldn't force the man in front of her to change his mind.

She still felt the hit in her stomach after all...

So with no other choice, she just sighed and nodded.

"Okay Teacher Holmes, so what will your class system be like? Teacher Flora taught me and checked my progress every Monday and Saturday at 3:15 a.m."

As soon as Hazel said the time, Adryan cursed in his mind.

'3 am? Didn't that rat have anything better to do than use that disgusting hour?' Adryan thought annoyed but outside he just nodded.

"For now we'll keep that schedule and we'll see in the following days how we'll change it, I'm sure it's annoying for you to wake up at this time because it is for me" the redhead said with an awkward laugh and Hazel just nodded in complete agreement.

Beneath her brown eyes were faint dark circles.

"Perfect then I'll see you here Saturday at 3:15 am, have a good night my student" Adryan said with a soft smile and Hazel bowed slightly.

"You too Teacher Holmes, see you soon" With that said Hazel straightened up but kept her knees bent and turned around, slowly walking away from Adryan while still having a hand on her stomach.

Adryan watched this without saying anything until he heard Hazel's footsteps had moved far enough away and only then did he let out a sigh that he had been holding for a long time.

"Well, that was easier than I thought..." he murmured, surprised at himself.

'Pyromaniac's sequence 7 Gaslighting ability is incredible, I can imagine what a Conspirator would be capable of'

"Adryan tell me something, why did you decide to take Hazel as a student? You don't get any profit from it nor is she of much use so why?" asked Flora curiously after finally calming down enough.

"I thought you'd be more upset that I stole your student but you don't seem to care in the least that's kind of disappointing" Adryan said shaking his head and Flora snorted.

"She was just an attempt to cultivate someone to parasitize and use their characteristics to recover but you arrived and that plan went to hell, I don't care in the slightest what you do with her but her presence is annoying to me" Flora said coldly.

"Were you planning to fatten her up to eat her later? That sounds familiar to me,from a story my mother told me about a witch with two children" Adryan said amused and Flora just snorted.

"You know, forget about it, do what you want with her, I was just curious about this move of yours" Flora responded annoyed and then fell silent.

Adryan didn't continue to bother her but he just stared at the path where Hazel left.

His red eyes were now cold and calculating.

Originally he hadn't planned to take Hazel under his wing but after thinking about it for a few moments he realized the huge gains he could have.

First, thanks to Flora, he already had practically all the formulas of the Marauder's path up to sequence 4, he just had to convince her to tell him and this meant that he was missing one less person for his sequence 4 ritual!

And the second thing was Hazel's parents and their noble status!

Hazel's parents were Maury Macht and Riana but the most important person was her father.

Maury Macht is a Member of Parliament for the Kingdom's House of Commons and a member of the New Party.

That was a much heavier name than Dutch Wilson and one he wanted to get his hands on.

If he achieved that, he had several plans that would become possible with the help of that man.

But he wasn't planning to do anything about it yet...

There were too many risks in making a move so early and it was better to wait.

He would only have the confidence to do all of that when he advanced to Conspirator and had the ability to manipulate people better.

With all these thoughts and plans running through his mind, Adryan kept his gaze the way Hazel went and let out a dark laugh.

"Oh little Hazel, don't you know that free things are the most expensive things? Everything that fate gives has a price that must be paid but don't worry I'll make sure to charge well~"

With those words said, the fireballs that floated around him vanished and only Adryan's scarlet eyes remained in the darkness of the sewer.

Flora heard all this but did not care, what happened to that girl was no longer her problem.

....

.....

Knowing that he had nowhere to go now, he just sighed as he pulled out a few melted red candles from his jacket along with some damaged red poppies.

Seeing the state of the flowers and candles, he only lamented internally for these, but he was also grateful that he always carried some with him.

Placing the flowers and candles in their respective places, he took a piece of paper from his pocket and looked at it carefully.

Seeing that the symbol was fine and did not show any damage, he nodded and placed it in its place.

Flora looked at what Adryan was doing curiously

.

"Adryan, what are you supposed to be doing? Is this a ritual of some kind?" It was the first time she had seen someone place materials in such a strange way.

'Also that symbol? It's the first time I've seen it...' the woman thought doubtfully but Adryan didn't answer but knelt and looked at the candle in front of him with a serious look.

He had several changes of clothes and all his money in the City of Calamities and he had to get them out at some point and now he thinks it's the best time.

The reason why he still hadn't done the ritual to get them out of the Sefirot is because he now had a spectator by the name of Flora.

'I can't use the original prayer, it's almost certainly the honorific name of the God who brought me here and I can't reveal it to anyone, I've been planning to change it for a while now but I never got around to trying the new name' the redhead thought seriously as he extended his hand and a small fireball formed in it.

This ball of fire left his hand and slowly lit the candles and he watched this with a determined look.

'I'm almost sure that the name I created is safe and nothing bad will happen but nothing is safe in this world, there is still a great risk that it will end up attracting the attention of an unwanted existence and everything will go to hell' he thought as he raised his hands and interlacing his fingers, he supported his forehead on top of it.

'But now I can't doubt' his red eyes shone with determination and Adryan closed his eyes and opened his mouth and spoke in Ancient Hermes.

"The Scarlet Monarch that burns depravity;

You are the Calamity of the Old Days;

You are the closest to the Oldest One."

"Your devoted servant prays for your attention;

"I pray for you to take this offering"

"I pray for you to open the gates to your Kingdom"

"WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE" Flora screamed in extreme terror when she saw what Adryan had done.

The lunatic had said the honorific name of a great existence!

And a name of three lines!

That is something that only connects to a God!!

But Adryan didn't pay attention to what Flora shouted.

The whispers that reached his ears were something much more important to him.

What do you think of the new honorific name?

I must admit that it took me quite a while to come up with this one.

So I hope you like it.
