The Mech Lord

"We are here.."

When the driver alerted them about their arrival, Leo couldn't help but look out through the window and his eyes slowly widened in surprise.

The campus was huge!

And there was a huge spaceship stationed towards the right end of the Academy and Leo could seep people rushing in and out of it.

To the left side of the campus was huge Colosseum and he could see dozens of statues of Mechs lined around and if he wasn't wrong those belonged the Mech of Heroes from 30 years ago.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly a a shadow covered their vehicle and the light inside dimmed. The next second, a creature whooshed past above them through the sky heading straight towards the back of the Campus.

When Leo's eyes landed on it, he couldn't help but suck in a cold breath. Even Amelia's eyes seemed to have widened for a second there.

It was a Basilisk!

"That's a surprise, I had heard that the Dean had a Basilisk as an Arora Beast, but this is my first time seeing it as well," Amelia said with as surprised look and immediately took out her Smart link to capture some images. "They say if you are lucky enough, you would be able to see it during your stay in the Academy.."

And with a smile, she went on her social handle to post the picture with the caption, 'Seeing the Basilisk in the first four months of my Academy.'

It was clear that she believed in the legend.

'Well, I saw it on the first day. I hope I will be lucky as well,' Leo shook his head and laughed inwardly.

The flying car slowly descended towards the parking area and it was finally time to leave.

"Don't stick to me," Amelia suddenly said as she got out of the car before Leo.

"What do you mean? When did ever stick to you?" He asked in confusion before following behind her and getting out as well.

Leo didn't remember sticking to her or doing any such thing within these past few days.

So, what was this about?

"I mean maintain a distance of few meters from me. People shouldn't think we are other together even if we are brother and sister," She said with a serious face and then walked ahead a few meters before turning around saying, "Maintain this distance at all times."

Leo was really speechless.

Just what was wrong with these pair of siblings?

"How the hell are you going to introduce me yo my friends like this?" He asked from behind but Amelia just laughed at him as she shook her head.

"Friends? You have one?"

Leo's face immediately changed and he frowned the next second, just who in hell didn't have a friend?

"You have been lying the entire time that you have friends when they are just your classmates. I bet no one even knows a thing about you that one as a friend should do," She further said with a laugh.

'What the hell was wrong with Aiden? Just what could be going through the guy's head? He was a loner on top of being an idiot as well? After all, why would one leave such a loving and wealthy family to go out and die there if he was not an idiot?'

In the end, Leo sighed and told himself that it was probably better this way. At least people won't have any expectation from him and he might even be able to get acquainted with people more easily since they didn't know the previous Aiden to begin with.

As he walked along streets of the Academy, Leo saw a lot of other students arriving on their beast while a few without one were arriving like them in their flying cars.

When he entered the campus building, he felt people staring at him in an odd manner and it really made him uncomfortable. It was probably due to the rumors that Aaron had previously told him about. It seemed people had already heard about him running away and now that he was returning with one arm missing, it was obvious that questions were rising in their mind.

That was indeed true but Leo didn't seem to realize that his new look with black hairs were attracting people's attention towards him more than anything else.

'I should hide it for now,' Leo thought as he adjusted his jacket on his shoulder and his arm in them.

At this moment, Amelia ahead stopped and turned around before pointing towards the screen on the wall which was showing the layout of the whole campus.

'This girl…' Leo sighed.

It seemed she wasn't even going to lead him up to his class properly.

With her job done, Amelia immediately hurried away as if she was afraid of even being spotted at a distance away from Leo. It was funny actually. He even started to wonder how the two were living under the same roof if they had so much problem with each other.

Leo walked up to screen and then stared at the layout of the campus trying to locate his class.

"How may I help you?"

An automated voice suddenly sounded through the screen and Leo realized that there was a program built in it to help peopled around.

"I need to go to the Year 2B of the MTP Class (Military Training Program), I mean the Captain Course," He said and even threw an alternative name for better explanation.

The screen showed that it was processing the information and the next second, it showed him where to go.

'Its hard to remember like this,' Leo frowned when he saw the line below which asked if he had smart link.

He immediately tapped onto it. Even though he hadn't got Aiden's account back as of yet, he still was logged into a guest account.

"Scan the code for direction tracking."

The programs voice entered Leo's ear and a code appeared on the screen. When Leo scanned it with his smart link, he managed to get the layout on his smart link and it was even showing him each turns and how many number of steps to take.

It definitely made the job easier.

As Leo walked through the campus, he was really surprised. The place didn't only have Glorian's studying but members of many other different races as well. But after thinking for a bit, Leo found that it made sense. Gloria was a powerhouse. It was obvious that many students would come here for its advance knowledge and training system. Then there were exchange students and also immigrants who had settled in Gloria.

So, it wasn't that exaggerated to see member of another race around.

'I hope, I find a human fellow...'
