Chapter 59: Klaus the menace
****Observation room****
The silence in a graveyard would be too loud compared to the silence that currently stayed in this room.
Everyone was simply too shocked to speak, they didn't even know what to say if they really wanted to speak.
What they saw was simply too much to not make them stunned.
Ten students came out of nowhere and simply wrecked havoc in the sectors they appeared in.
The Dean and Vice president were busy bragging earlier whose disciple would top each other, yet these students did something outrageous and shined more brightly than them.
The most surprising part was the entire ten of them were all humans.
Earlier during the entrance exam, six humans took the top 20 which was unusual, now another ten popped out again and overshadowed everyone.
Of course the ten students were Anthony's subordinate.
It's not that they were looking down on the humans or anything but this was definitely abnormal and something was at play behind the scenes here.
Humans didn't have any bloodline or special talent or trait like other species.
This was why only them awakened classes which allowed them to even take a step further.
Their numbers and diversity allowing them to get to their current standing as they were always relentless.
But this was simply too much, the humans produced too many geniuses this time.
This wasn't the first golden generation, neither was it the second or last.
They had all seen golden generations and they were human geniuses amongst them but not as abnormal as this.
But this was the Academy, they were simply here to teach, they couldn't do anything against them or anyone.
They can only observe and teach them like they are required to do.
But that doesn't mean they couldn't find out what was happening, what if it was the demons or any other thing at play here.
They would of course find out and if they find anything dangerous they won't hesitate to intervene.
The Dean looked at Klaus and asked
"What is up with the humans this time around"
"Ohhh are you all finally afraid that the humans are finally producing geniuses that surpasses yours and now you feel threatened" replied Klaus with a smirk.
But even Klaus too was surprised when as he watched the exam, how could he know what was happening.
"You know that's not what I meant Klaus"
"Well how am I supposed to know what is happening, besides you know nobody can produce such geniuses, even if they did, they won't send ten of them out at the same time, as that would be stupid and showing us their cards" klaus replied.
"It could also be nothing is at play here and destiny is trying to do something, of course we would investigate, but if nothing is found, we would try to bring them to our side before the demons and forsaken cult poach them as usual" The 'Blood Empress' said as she focused on the students.
Kevin simply just kept his eyes on Anthony as everyone continued discussing, but even as they discussed, thier eyes never left the screen infront of them.
As they discussed and watched at the same time, the conversation suddenly stopped as one of the reasons for the exam had finally moved a muscle.
Then suddenly the person raised his head and looked upwards as his eyes peered through the roof and space as his eyes met the eyes of everyone in the room through the screen, then he smiled at them then he disappeared.
The room was sent into another silence but heavier this time.
"This is Impossible" said one of the four star professors.
"How did he know?" asked another
"Was he tipped off?" asked another
Everyone in the room was a power house and been through their fair share of scheme and battle, so they understood very well what that smile meant.
It simply meant he knew of their scheme.
Besides, he even saw through them and looked at them through the screen, meaning that he knew he was being watched and he knew what method they used.
Which was impossible as this was only made exclusive to the four star professor, the Dean, the vice president and Klaus.
The only person who wasn't from the Academy who was here was Klaus, he didn't work for the Academy and was here to repay a favor.
The professors looked at him with questioning gaze as the possible leak as there was no way they believed a mere fifteen year old child saw through their schemes.
Klaus didn't bother replying and simply released his aura and killing intent.
Everyone in the room asides The Dean and Vice president was brought to their knees immediately, all vomitting blood and their cultivation realm dropped a minor realm, they bled from all seven orifices, as they battled to keep their consciousness.
The entire Academic domain shook at Klaus aura and killing intent.
Buildings shattered, glasses broke down, people within the domain fainted and an earthquake erupted with intense magnitude.
Klaus wasn't the type who bothered scheming, he was someone who went straight to fighting if he had an issue with you.
This was one of the reasons people didn't dare go against him or scheme against him, you would be dead on the spot if you did anything against him.
This was what was happening in the observation room, Klaus simply just gave them a punishment for having such thoughts against him and accusing him of such, if they weren't the Dean's subordinate who was a friends of his, he won't leave them with some minor injuries or just a drop in a minor realm, he would have taken their lives here immediately.
That was the kind of man Klaus is, a no nonsense man, he talks straight and goes straight to the answer.
He doesn't go around killing people, if he did many people would have come together to put him down, your death meant you did something against him.
The Dean looked at Klaus and said
"That is enough Klaus, you have given enough punishment"
Klaus looked back at the Dean with an expressionless face but with burning eyes as if he was ready for a fight to the death with the Dean if the Dean made a move or said anything wrong at this moment.
After a few seconds Klaus removed his killing intent and said in a cold voice.
"I would spare them this once with light injuries and a minor realm as punishment, but if they have such thoughts again or make a stupid move like this, I would take their heads no matter what you say, 'Slaughterer', keep your slaves in line while I am here."
As soon as he was done speaking he disappeared with his aura like he wasn't there in the first place.
Everything returned to normal, but not the destruction Klaus just caused with just by flaring his aura.
The four stars professor were still coughing up blood and were bleeding from all seven orifices.
Even Kevin the 'Blood Empress' brother wasn't spared from getting injured even though he didn't have such thoughts with the others, he was simply a collateral damage.
But on the bright aside, he didn't drop a realm as the Vice president protected him with just enough aura to avoid dropping a realm, but she didn't protect him from getting injured.
The Dean looked at his four star professor and said in a stern tone.
"You all asides Kevin won't receive any salary or Academy point or recourses for the next one thousand years, you won't be allowed to purchase anything from the Academy for the next one thousand years"
Kevin was only spared obviously because he didn't have same thoughts as them not because of the Vice president.
The Dean continued speaking.
"The fact that I personally brought someone here to teach and you doubted him simply spits on my name, the next time you do such nonsense I would kill you myself before Klaus even has the opportunity to do so"
"Yes Dean" they all replied with fear.
"All cost for the repairs of everything that has been affected and destroyed or spoilt will be taken from your pockets" the Dean continued.
They cursed their stupidity, they knew how Klaus always behaved, although he was a free type of guy that talks and jokes with everyone, once you overstepped you would be put in the ground, they knew he wasn't the scheming type and he had no reason to tip Anthony, but they looked at him due to reflex as he was the only one who wasn't bound by a mana contract like the rest of them.
They were only alive because of the Dean but they dropped a minor realm as a result of their foolishness, every single minor realm matters as it takes years to even progress.
Yet they dropped a realm because of their stupidity.
This was the reason the Vice president protected Kevin.
Even advancing a minor realm takes years of hard work and resources for people of their level, and not even receiving the resources for another one thousand years was maddening.
The professors brought out potions from their space rings and drank them to heal themselves.
The Dean looked back at the cottage where Anthony was and said.
"Give back the human boy his first rank"
"But that would be unfair to the others, Dean" someone said.
"Yes Dean, others worked the entire time, but he did nothing but sleep, we are simply rewarding him for nothing" another one said.
"Also from the intel, he has become lazy and arrogant because of his rank and now sleeps a lot during classes" replied another.
The Dean replied without even looking at them.
"If you are talking about fairness, then you won't have schemed against him, scheming against a fifteen year old child is already unfair in itself, and now you are talking about fairness"
The Vice president chimed in by saying
"Even if he has indeed become lazy and not strong enough to sit at rank 1, the others only have to challenge him for his rank to get it back, it's as simple as that"
The professors nodded as they indeed had nothing else to say.
Even if Anthony has become lazy, the others only need to challenge him for him to lose his rank and that's all.
"What should we write as his score then" said one of the professors.
"Just input three question marks there and give no explanation to anybody, not even to the other professors and allow them and the students to guess whatever they like and grant him twice the amount of Academy point the second ranker obtains" the Dean said as he disappeared from his seat.
