Chapter 38
“You mean I’ve been carrying a five hundred thousand old pendant with me all over my life?” Kevin asked.
“Yes you are. The pendant is so valuable, it costs a fortune to have something like this. If I’m to make a quick estimation, it’ll worth a thousand diamonds to have it.” The system said.
“Really? Is it that expensive? I could sell it in purchase of weapons and armours. I would even become wealthier than any rich student in this school.”
“You’re not thinking of selling the pendant are you? Kevin.. don’t..”
“Thanks for telling me this system, you’re the best!” Kevin said as he jumped up in excitement. Suddenly, he found himself floating in the air as his Triling wings flapped against each other.
“What’s happening, I’m in the air.” Kevin panicked.
“Wonderful! Kevin, you managed to lift yourself into the air. Congratulations! Now all you have to do is to flap your wings as fast as you could while in the air. Just think of doing it, the wings will soon become a part of you and you’ll soon be able to control it voluntarily just like you use your arms and feet.”
Kevin didn’t know why but he immediately became serious all of a sudden. He obeyed the system’s instructions as he had the aim of flying. Perhaps he was motivated after hearing the good news of the pendant from the system. He had a grin on his face as he thought of how rich he would be after selling the pendant, he also grinned upon realizing how lucky he was to be someone of three race.
.....
Slowly, he’ll become stronger than ever. For once he acknowledged his mother for gifting him this precious Pendant, although he felt sad that she was dead. The system couldn’t say anything but wait till the time comes for him to reveal the truth to Kevin. He really wanted to help Kevin more than anyone.
Finally, Kevin was able to fly higher into the sky. The wings had became a part of his body and he could control it as he wished. He flew in the sky for a few minutes before running out of stamina, and then landed on the top of the roof. The roof of the dorm building was flat and although there was a door leading down to the exit of the building, not all of the students comes here.
This was actually the first time Kevin would be on the roof of the building. He could see the whole city from this point. It was all bright and beautiful. Electricities and buildings everywhere. Fairies could be seen flying all around the city, some were students while the others were teachers. Due to being a human, he didn’t how much fun it is to be a fairy. Even the elves envies the fairies every time they fly in groups. But luckily for the elves, they were able to create a spell that makes them fly in the air as long as they want. Kevin could see that most of them are spell wizards and pure mage students. They have a different uniform and they all had weapons with them. Some with bows on their backs, the others with swords and many other weapons.
“I’m still an ordinary student, will I be able to reach that rank? Will the wizard I called my father not going to come for me. Is he really my father.” Kevin thought.
“Kevin, don’t bother yourself with all those thoughts, you should focus on getting stronger first. Then you’ll have the answers to all the questions you have in your mind all this while. Believe me.”
“You know, I kinda like this place. I feel at ease watching the whole city from this roof. I guess I’ll start coming here more often. Let’s have a final flight and head back inside.” Kevin said as he controlled his wings once again. Since he was able to use the wings as he wished, it didn’t take long for him to figure out how to hide and reveal his wings at will. Once he calms himself down, he was able to hide his wings. And if he feels the urge to fly, his wings will spread willingly. It was more easier than when he first tried it. Just like the system said, he believed in himself that he could do it and amazingly, he did it.
“Shadow magic, shadow skills, the name sounds so special. I guess I might get more stronger at this rate. Now I have two magics unlike other students of my age.”
“Yes Kevin, you’re lucky because of the Triling system you have. It takes a long time before any magical creature could unlock his or her second magic.”
“I guess I’m really lucky.” Kevin said as he felt the urge to fly again.
“I’ll check my new magic later once I’m free.” he said as he closed the notification tab hovering above his face.
Climbing on the edge of the roof, Kevin spread his wings and then flew into the air of the cold night. He caught up with a few fairy girls and said hello to them. They all giggled as they saw Kevin’s cute smile. What surprised them most was the beautiful golden colour of his Triling wings.
“Wow, did you see that? Golden wings.”
“Is that not rare?”
“He must be a teacher, and he’s not wearing any shirt in this cold night. Oh, he’s so hot and sexy.”
“Let’s catch up with him and ask him out for dinner tomorrow.” One of the girls suggested and they all agreed, they searched around but couldn’t find Kevin anymore.
“Huh? Where did he go?”
“Oh that was close,” Kevin heaved a sigh of relief as he watched the fairies flew away in a distance. He had immediately hide as soon as he saw them notice his different coloured wings.
“So it was so obvious.” Kevin said.
“You know, you could ask one of them out or make them your Harem wives.”
“Pft... What’s that, are you corrupting me or what. I want to have just a girlfriend.” Kevin objected as he flew past the school library.
“And who do you have in mind to be your girlfriend? The Lexa girl? Huh? I know she’s the one,... No need to hide it.”
“Come on, what can I do to stop you from reading my thoughts. Lexa is okay to me, she could be my girlfriend..”
“But..?” The system interrupted him.
“Come on, don’t be silly. I can’t just go and ask her out when we just met a few days ago. I need to study and see if my feelings for her are genuine before I could ask her out.”
“But, she’s the girl your heart beats for, right? Then all is settled. You could still have harem wives. In fact, it is a must for you to have at least two. You may take Lexa as your girlfriend and still have two harem wives. Then when you decide on getting married, to Lexa, you can dispose them off and be with the love of your life. Simple.”
“What’s the essence of having Harem wives when they’ll be abandoned anyway.”
“Let me explain. You’re like a Vampire, you can blood any human you wish to turn into a vampire and once they successfully turns into a human, they’ll be under you and serve you as their master. You will send them out to kill for you, die for you and fight for you. The harem wives will be under your control and they’ll respect Lexa as the owner of the house and everything. The harem wives are just there to help and comfort you in time of need.”
“No matter what you say about them, I’m not convinced at all. Heck, what a disgusting mind you have. I’m going to my room now, it’s late, everyone should have slept by now. I need a shower and I’m so sleepy.” Kevin said as he flew back to the dorm building and walked into his room.
