Glynda walks faster catching up to Ozpin and I notice that she's eyeing me every now and then. "Are you sure it's wise to bring a complete stranger to our school? We don't even know if he's friend or foe" Glynda whispers to Ozpin thinking I can't hear her, which I very much can, but I let it be wanting to see his answer.
"Trust me Glynda, I feel no ill intentions from him. And the child doesn't have anything affecting his mind, so he's not controlling the child in any way" Ozpin whispers back.
Glynda can only sigh and nod, trusting what Ozpin says. And now that I take a closer look at Glynda, she's quite good looking. The way her tight clothes wraps around her body, really accentuating that fine ass.
After a few minutes we arrive at this so called 'Beacon Academy' and it's huge. Everything about it is grand, the long bridge connecting to the entrance, the buildings themselves, and there's a tower much much taller than all the other buildings are. I'm going to assume that's where Ozpin is usually at.
They lead me inside and the first room is gigantic, it can probably fit hundreds of people maybe even more in it.
"Why is this place so empty?" I ask.
"Second and third years are having classes and the first years are having their initiation" Glynda answers.
I nod and not long after we arrive at the infirmary. We enter and I see a woman behind a desk holding some sort of transparent thing with two solid pieces on both side and a diamond on one of the solid sides. When she notices us, she quickly closes the thing before greeting Ozpin.
"Oh, Professor Ozpin welcome, what can I do for the headmaster today?" She asks.
"I need you to bandage that child's wound" Ozpin says pointing to the boy.
The woman nods and tells the boy to sit on the bed, he looks at me for confirmation. I nod and he sits on the bed while the nurse unwraps my makeshift bandage. The wound is still there but it's better than how it was before.
"Now after the nurse has finished treating him, would you please follow me to my office. I have some things to discuss with you Mr. Dominus." Ozpin says.
I don't exactly have anywhere to go, and I can learn more about this world I'm in so I suppose I'll follow him.
"Fine, I don't exactly have anywhere else to go." I answer which gets a nod from him.
The nurse finishes and we head to Ozpin's office. After lots of twist and turns in this maze of a school, we finally reach some metal doors. And they slide open, Ozpin walks inside and we all follow.
"This elevator is decently fast but it's still going to take some time so please be patient" Ozpin says as he pushes a button with the number '100' on it.
(Timeskip)
He really wasn't exaggerating when he said it will take some time, it took 10 fucking minutes to reach his office.
Ozpin walks over and sits on his chair behind a curved desk with gears visible under its transparent top.
"Please have a seat Mr. Dominus" he says gesturing to the chair in front of him.
I take a seat and so does the boy while Glynda stands next to Ozpin.
"Now, what do you want to talk about bringing me here?" I ask.
"Well before that, I would like to ask some questions. The first and most obvious being, who are you and where are you from?" He asks.
I suppose I can tell him I come from Sparta, "Who I am is none of your business, but what I will tell you is that I come from a land called Sparta." I answer.
"Hmm, a land called Sparta you say... as in the land where children are raised from a young age to be perfect war soldiers and once ruled with a mighty iron fist?" He asks.
"The very same" I answer simply.
"Assuming what you say is true, how are you even alive? Sparta fell well over 4000 years ago." Glynda asked.
"That is none of your business" I say which annoys Glynda.
She was about to say something, but Ozpin puts his hand up stopping her, and she can only sigh.
"Now moving on, I have an offer for you Mr. Domimus. I let you live here and give you all the information you need, and I'll even give you a salary but in exchange you need to work here as a teacher." Ozpin says.
"Ozpin you can't be serious!" Glynda shouts.
"Now now Glynda calm down, don't want to start off on a bad note with your potential work partner, do you?" Ozpin says.
"You don't mean..." She says hoping what she thinks to not be true.
"Oh I do, if he agrees he'll help you with your combat class, or maybe you'll take turns teaching" Ozpin says before looking at me waiting for my answer.
Well, I don't have anywhere to go, I don't have any money and I can try to find a place to stay out there but it'll be much more convenient here.
"I've decided. I'll take up your offer of being a teacher here" I say much to the dismay of Glynda.
Ozpin smiles, "Then it's settled, I will have to announce the teams made in an hour or so, Glynda if you would be so kind to lead him to his room." Ozpin says and hands me the transparent thing the nurse was holding at the infirmary.
"What's this supposed to be?" I ask.
"A scroll, it's both a key to your room and a device to call or message someone and some other features you can find out yourself." He says and I nod.
"Oh and before you go, let me unlock your aura" he says while walking to me.
"And what's that supposed to be" I ask.
"A sort of protective barrier that forms around your body and can also be used for other things like strengthening yourself." He says.
"I see, well then go ahead" I say.
He puts his on my shoulder and chants, "For it is in determination that we achieve success. Through this, we become a paragon of light and humanity to rise above her. Infinite in death and unbound by time, I release your soul, and by my power, condemn thee." He says and I feel something warm inside me be set free.
And not long after I'm surrounded by a thick blood red glow along with small patches fire shaped blue with the color being when I still had the power of Hope. Ozpin on the other hand isn't doing so well, he's panting and sweating while holding on to his cane and Glynda had to help him stay upright.
"Is that supposed to happen?" I ask Glynda.
"No, this is the first time I've ever seen someone taking so much energy to unlock aura. And they're usually only one color but yours has bits of blue in it." Glynda says.
"Glynda.. go help him to.. his room I can.. handle myself" Ozpin says between his breaths.
Glynda nods and sits him down onto his chair before gesturing me to follow her. The boy gets up and we follow Glynda to the elevator. She presses a button with the number 12 on it and the doors close and I fell that we're going down.
"I really don't trust you, but only because Ozpin says so, I'll at least give you a chance to prove yourself trustworthy" she says.
"I do not care if you find me trustworthy or not, I will do what I want" I answer.
Glynda doesn't say anything else and just looks ahead into nothing. I on the other hand activate my aura to get used to the feeling of it. And I didn't get the chance to ask Ozpin why I felt mana only in him and nobody else.
After 5 minutes we arrive at the 12th floor and Glynda was the first to step out, but the high heel of her shoe gets caught in the gap between the doors and she falls forward. And me being me I quickly catch her while also getting a good grip of her ass, it was soft yet firm and it has a nice feel to them.
Glynda feels this and blushes but doesn't say anything of it, she likes it huh? I stood her back up and she quickly walks away.
"F-follow me" she says with a stutter.
I chuckle and me and the boy follow her, the boy however looks confused why I was chuckling and why Glynda's face is red.
We take a couple of turns here and there and I remember them before we arrived at my room with the number 420 on it.
"H-here's your room, just swipe the scroll over the handle and it'll open for you" She says.
She turns and is walking away but I quickly spank her, and she lets out an 'eep' which is funny to me. She turns around with an angry pout and I only grin before entering the room.
Inside is a decently sized room with a large window, a bed big enough for two people and a bathroom.
It isn't decorated but I don't care as I sit on the bed and the boy sits down next to me.
"So how are you handling all of this?" I ask.
"Well.. I don't really know. I'm still sad I lost my parents but moping around won't bring them back" The boy answers.
"I see, just tell me if you need anything. I'll try and help you the best I can" I say.
"Thanks" He says with a sad smile.
I smile softly before giving him a headpat. Then my scroll vibrates, I open it to see a message from Ozpin.
Ozpin: 'I will start my announcement in 10 minutes, I'm hoping you will arrive at the amphitheater -the room where you first entered- in 5 minutes'
Me: 'Alright, I'll get going now'
"Alright boy, I have to go to the amphitheater, you want to come or just stay here?" I ask
"I'll go with, it's going to be boring just waiting in the room" he says.
I nod and we leave the room and not get lost because I remember my way correctly. I tap the down button and not long after the doors open, we step in and I press the button with a 1 on it.
The doors close and not long after, we reach the first floor.
We make our way to the amphitheater and meet some other professors on the way there. We arrive and it's already decently crowded. Ozpin sees me and gestures to get on stage. As I do, I attract the gaze of the students.
"Nice meeting you Mr. Dominus, you can sit on the chair there and wait for me to call you" he says and I nod while the boy sits next to me.
As more time went on, more and more students crowded the room, and almost all of them looked at me with curiosity. Everyone was talking with everyone and it's noisy, until Ozpin turns on something that amplifies his voice, and he clears his throat. Everyone immediately stops talking and pays attention to him as he began his team announcement which I tune out because it doesn't concern me.
I was tuning everything out until I hear, "Now, would our new combat teacher Mr. Dominus please step up and introduce himself and how he'll be teaching his classes."
Ozpin moves away from the device, and I walk over to it and start talking, "Hello everyone, as you just heard my name is Dominus. And all you need to know is that in my class only skill matters, I won't and don't care what background you come from or what race you are. You will get good grades if you're skilled or show your effort to get better and you will fail if you are unskilled and you don't even bother to try and improve. That is all."
"Thank you for that Mr. Dominus, now Mr. Dominus' initiation will start tomorrow at 8, all of you are free to watch if you wish to do so. You may all leave now." And with those words, everyone leaves in a few minutes.
"Mind telling me about this initiation Ozpin?" I ask.
"It's just you have to do the initiation the first years did, just on a much harder difficulty." He explains
"Well I hope it'll be a challenge, the first year initiation was way too easy" I say.
"I hope so too, but knowing the strength you displayed before, I doubt you will have much trouble handling it and even more so now since you have your aura unlocked."
"I see, and one last thing. Why do I feel mana only from you and not anybody else" I ask which stuns him.
"I-I'm sorry, did I hear that right? You feel the mana in me?" He asks.
"Indeed, so do tell me, wizard. Why's that the case?" I ask.
"That is a story for another time, right now you must prepare for your initiation tomorrow Mr. Dominus" he says before quickly leaving.
Well, I guess I should just explore the place to know its layout so I know where to go if something happens.
