Just like Neil and his uncle who were able to escape from the king''s men, a few other rebels were able to escape as well, and they secretly formed a dark guild with the goal of ending not only the elf queen, but also the nobles, ministers, and finally the king of the human kingdom.


    ''I''ll make sure I have my revenge on all of them, starting with the elf queen.''


    ''She destroyed my family and I''m definitely going to ruin hers as well.''


    ''It''s a shame the elf prince is a rank ten mage.''


    ''If he wasn''t a rank ten mage, it would have made things a lot easier for me.''


    ''However, since he''s a Rank ten mage, it means I will have to settle on a different approach.''


    ''I''m a rank seven mage so there''s no way I''ll be able to win against him in a fight, and I''m not stupid enough to try to ambush him in his sleep or anything like that.''


    ''Unlike me, he''s a transcendent being and this makes it impossible for me to win against him inbat.''


    ''But there''s still a way for me to win.''


    ''There''s a way for a rank seven mage like me to win inbat against a rank ten mage, and this means I should be able to have my revenge.''


    ''I should be able to have the elf prince''s head if I can just...''


    Neil''s thoughts were interrupted when he heard a knock on his door and he swiftly turned his head towards it.


    He realized that it was his attendant, and Neil ordered him toe in.


    "Come in."


    Just like every other student in Ste Hall, Neil also had an attendant with him.


    His attendant was a rebel who worked for his uncle in the dark guild, so they had known each other for years.


    "Young master, your uncle would like to have a word with you," The attendant handed Neil a small crystal ball.


    The crystal ball allowed Neil and his uncle tomunicate over a long distance while seeing each other''s faces.


    Neil nodded his head in understanding before grabbing the crystal ball. Then he ordered his attendant to wait outside while he talked to his uncle.


    Neil could have asked his attendant to return to his own room, but he didn''t because he still had a few things to say to him.


    The attendant could easily guess what their discussion would be about, but he decided to wait to hear what Neil had to say once he was done talking with his uncle.


    Ever since Neil noticed Orion in the hall, a fraction of his rage, which had always been suppressed for so long, got released, and he had been unable to think of anything aside from ending the prince himself.


    This was all for the sake of his revenge.


    Neil''s attendant waited outside his bedroom for half an hour until Neil ordered him to step back into his room.


    The attendant politely opened the door to find Neil standing before his window while staring at the stars in the night sky, his hands sped behind him.


    Neil seemed to be contemting what he and his uncle had discussed, but he didn''t ponder over it for more than a minute before returning his gaze back to his attendant.


    "Young master, what did Lord Phil say about the prince?"


    "He wants us to focus on our main objective."


    Phil''s orders were simple.


    He understood Neil''s hatred towards the elf queen and everyone rted to her, but he didn''t want this to cloud Neil''s judgment and distract him from what he should really be focused on.


    The main reason why Phil allowed Neil to go to the academy wasn''t because of Orion, rather, he wanted Neil to help the dark guild by causing chaos and mayhem within the academy.


    No one could enter the academy unless they were one of the students, but with Neil''s help, the guild would be able to sessfully implement their n.


    If all went ording to n, the world would return back to an era of war, and then Neil would have more than enough reasons to kill not only the elf prince but also the elf queen as well.


    One could only wonder why a small organization like the Dark Guild would feel so confident about taking the life of an Apex Mage, but the answer was simple: the Dark Guild wasn''t the only one interested in returning the world back to an era of war.


    Even Neil wasn''tpletely delusional enough to believe that he could face someone as strong as the elf queen, but he knew his uncle was secretly working with another organization that shared themon goal of returning the world back to an age of war and bloodshed.


    He heard his uncle telling one of his subordinates about how the unknown organization seemed to be headed by one of the current Apex Mages.


    However, even his uncle didn''t know who the Apex Mage was, but one thing was certain, and that was the fact that one of the Apex Mages wasn''t interested in living in a world of peace and tranquility anymore.


    In a nutshell, if everything went ording to n, all the kingdoms in the mortal realm would begin to wage war on each other. But only time would tell whether it would truly happen in the future or not.


    Neil clenched his fists tightly as he decided to let go of his hatred towards the elf prince for now and focus all his attention on his primary objective.


    He and his attendant began to make ns on what they needed to do, but while Neil and his attendant were busy racking their brains on how to cause chaos within the academy, Orion and Mia were sweating profusely as the two of them embarked on a steamy exercise in their bed.


    ====


    A/N:- I understand that some of you will be unhappy with how I haven''t revealed the part where Orion views his status, along with the skills he was rewarded with.


    Forgive me for this. I am simply waiting to reveal this at the best time. Don''t worry it won''t be long from now.


    However, I''ll continue to reveal things bit by bit like how I''ve been doing before now.


    Oh, and the next chapter will be having an R18 scene, so please, you''re more than wee to skip the next two or four chapters if you''re not interested in reading stuff like this.
