155 Chapter 155 – The innocent

Just as Feng was contemplating this issue, there was a sound of loud murmur. The student all moved out of the way to let an old man in the class. The man was slightly panting and was carrying at least a few bags of things in his hand.

His shiny white hair and the bags made him look like Santa Claus.

“Ethan~ Aiden~” the man ran up to them ad dropped the things randomly on the ground. He tripped on them a few times but he ignored it all and rushed to the boys. “Why did you guys call me here? I brought a lot of gifts that I have been storing in my storeroom. Here take this.” he handed a crystal that looked like a star to Ethan.

Ethan glanced away with a pout.

“Aww, my Ethan is acting cute. Are you pouting little one, is it not to your liking,” the man pinched his cheeks.

Ethan glared up at him. “What took you so long? We called you like the minutes ago master.”

“Ah sorry about that I had a meeting so I had to run out of it. What is bothering my boys so much” he pulled Aiden close and tussled through his curly blond hair.



Aiden pushed his hand away with a cold smile. “This woman is your school staff? Is this how you manage your school its pathetic.”

Everyone gasped.

.....

No one had the audacity to talk to the principal in this way.

the teacher who was siding with Clarina grinned. if the kid was being so rude to the principal, he would obviously punish them before asking what had happened.

But to everyone’s surprise the principal just smiled sheepishly. “yes, yes it’s my fault. It was definitely my fault.”

Feng chuckled subtly. The outside world might have only seen the cold-hearted principal before, but she had seen how the old man behaved with Ethan and Aiden. The man adored them, to be honest. he thought of them as his grandsons. It was not because they were powerful but because the boys remained him of someone special. the old principal never mentioned who that was during that family dinner.

But after seeing Ethan and Aiden the principal was floored. He instantly took them In and became their mentor.

“here isn’t this what you wanted,” the principal handed a small glass bottle to Ethan and gently pinched his pouting cheeks.

Ethan refused to indulge him and walked over to Feng. “Show me your hand. It might bruise if we leave it untreated for long.”

He gently smeared the salve on her cuts.

“What happened to your hand dear?” the principal curiously whispered towering over them.

Feng knew this was her chance. She glanced pitifully at the other. “we... we unjustly punched grandpa~”

The old man’s eyes slightly went wide. His cold unfeeling eyes he had when facing Feng chanced instantly. “yes, is that so?”

“she hurt me, grandpa.” Feng whispered, pouting cutely. She nudged Elle as well.
“yes, grandpa she is so mean to us. That Clarina bullies us by sidling our seats and tables but when we fought back the teacher is accusing of bullying her. Please give us justice. she hit Feng until she fainted,” Elle added a bit more information just so the old principal could understand.

Aiden who was silently observing suddenly ran to them. “You fainted! I knew you should have taken a day off. You were just wounded last night and now this...”

To be honest, Feng had been feeling a bit more tired than usual. It might be because of her blood loss. She had no clue why when she tried to act a fainting play she actually fainted for a bit on the ground.

Hearing Elle cries, she woke up again.

She refused to tell the truth to the boys and Elle now.

“Old man, she abused my dear Feng. What are you going to do?”

The principal first cast his cold gaze at the teacher. His eyes then fell on the wooden rod on the ground. There were still blood stains on it.

He picked it up from under that trembling teacher leg and sniffed it slightly. There was some kind of weird smell on that rod.

“Wait a bit Ethan, let’s wash her wounds first. I believe something as smeared on this rod.”

The teacher instantly went to her knees. She had done a small trick of smearing pain inducers on it. nothing much. It would have gone unnoticed if the principal had not come around. But now she was completely trapped in the spider’s web. “I did not know of this sir. I was only administering common punishment. I was completely unaware that someone had smeared pain inducers on it,”

Feng peered at the brainless teacher. she literally exposed herself. The principal did not mention the drug used on the rod but the teacher blurted it out. she sighed and shook her head. ‘be a good villain please..’

The principal smiled coldly. “Is that so? We might have to check the memory then,” he held out his open palm.

The teacher backed away and stumbled down to the ground. “No sir, I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t do anything wrong. I was only trying to protect the weak and innocent,”

“Who do you deem innocent is subjective to you, isn’t it?” the old man placed his palm firmly on her forehead.

They all watched as the principal Pull out a colorful red energy out of her head and he trapped it in a transparent crystal. “let’s view who was at fault.” He focused on clarain as well. “Young lady, if you may?”

Clarain ran and hid behind flora. She hurriedly took out a communication crystal and connected to her only ally. “Killian.... this man is touching me weirdly. I’m so scared...”

The principal chuckled. “I haven’t even touched you, dear.”

{‘who? Who is that? Don’t you dare hurt her! I will make sure you will experience hell and above when I come there.. I will tear out your eyeball and...”

“And?” the principal curiously raised a brow.

Listening to his soft and ancient voice the prince froze. {‘might I know who this is?’}

“oh, sorry I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Erin Adams, the principal of the prestigious school of mages and magic. This must be crown prince Killian right?”

{‘u-um yes... it’s a great honor to talk to you sir.’}

“What is this about tearing my eyeball? Can you please elaborate on that I’m very curious? The principal playfully glanced at them all.

Even without seeing they could feel the man on the other side of the communicator was panicking. They heard a lot of fumbling noises and scattering noises.

{‘my apologies I thought something had happened to Clarina and overreacted. I am glad that you stumbled upon her and saved her from whoever is hurting her.’}

The principal let out a loud jovial laugh. “I am the person she is running from. She has caused a problem in school so I was trying to check the memories of the students involved but it looks like this girl of yours has a lot to hide. She instantly accused me of touching her inappropriately. How unwise. She must have done her research. I’m only interested in men. Women don’t do it for me.”

Everyone in the class looked at the principal curiously. Especially Feng. She tugged at Elle’s sleeves. “Did you know this?”

“Everyone does. He is married to his husband and has a son who ran away from home long back.”

“How?”

“Magic dummy.”

“oh year its magic. Wait male pregnancy?”

Elle raised a brow and nodded. “Totally possible.

“Sweet. that sounds cool.” Feng was genuinely impressed by this world. the magic system in this place was so advanced that they were literally able to make a baby inside a man. it was quite awesome.

The principal cleared his throat. “so? Prince? Young lady, your accusation is invalid. So can I take your memory?”

Clarina looked like she was ready to dash off.

But she had no other way but to stay. This was the school’s principal. if she ran away, she might lose the position that she got in this school after so much difficulty and bribes.

Gritting her teeth, she moved close to him.

The old man placed a hand on her head and pulled out a black smoke-like thing. he trapped it in the crystal as well.

Just like that, he did so with Feng and Elle.

The old man then looked at Clarina. “Anyone willing to confess to their mistakes? I won’t punish you severely if you do accept your fault?”

The teacher scoffed, glancing at Feng. “You must confess to your fault.”

“l lest see who is telling the truth. The liar and the bully will be pushed heavily because this school of magic does not tolerate bullying.”

Clarina started to swoon just hearing that.

The principal took out an lemon from his pockets. “Hold this by your nose dear, I don’t want you fainting when I’m in the doing an investigation,”

Clarina just wanted to fain and find a reason to leave. If her dirty actions got displayed to the class, she might lose respect.

She glanced at Fiona. “Take the blame” she mouthed.

Fiona for a second froze. “What?”

“Say you did it!” Clarina pinched her arm so hard that it formed into a blue blister. “Do it,”
