[center][h3][color=f26522]- Lukas Kunze -[/color][/h3] Lukas was remarkably happy by the response Luna gave, tilting his head back with a larger than life smile. In his eyes, Lunalel became two percent hotter with that statement, adding even more to certain attributes he admired. [color=f26522]"That, and not a lot of people in my social class garner a proper education; no need to squander the opportunity,"[/color] he chirped in, even though Lyssa had admitted to defeat. ... but he could only find the sparring match that was to transpire to be a interesting one. While Lyssa was his first friend, he did feel more inclined to be in support of the knightess due to healthy skepticism... but then again... Tapping his lip with the nail of his thumb, he looked to the ground for a moment, pondering on the previous night. She mentioned herself beating up a bear, created a farfetched story, and had horns... that were not on her head today. That was one difference he noticed from the latter eve. Regardless, while they were off to head to class, with Luna gesturing to come along, he decided to try and walk ahead of the group... though, stopped upon hearing a few gossiping hens off on the side. He acknowledged the girls presence by eyeing them inquisitively, before smiling a little. While there was a glint of mischief in his eyes, he could make practice somewhat interesting. That and the two female L's had agreed to sparring against each other today. They had a considerable... hold on, before either of them had fun, weigh the consequences; there could be unwarranted attention. Say something else... [color=f26522]"Looks like you've garnered a few admirers Luna,"[/color] he stated, smiling just a little as he nicked his head to the side, holding his head up with his hands shaped like an L or C. [color=f26522]"Both male an female... though I wouldn't be surprised if even Lyssa had a few admirers too."[/color] He chuckled briefly before winking at the pink haired lass. [color=f26522]"Anyways, I look forward to watching you two in action later today.~"[/color] [hr] The morning and afternoon classes flew by at a swift rate, though Lukas did ponder on why two of the teachers suddenly decided to not show up, even after the second day of classes nevertheless! Poor attendance or duty maybe? Myriads upon myriads of reasons could only fly into his head fleetingly before resuming what he previously was doing in class - note taking. Riveting. He oft noticed Lyssa was asleep in class; that possibly something he could talk to her about so she wouldn't get in too much trouble. As much as she seemed nice, Lukas wasn't exactly sure she was getting a great amount of education... and he was plenty sure she ditched class some time in the afternoon, as evidenced by the distinct lack of pink haired lasses in class. Eventually the school day had come to a close for the most part... which meant it was time for training. As he stepped into the area, he pondered on where to go next. Lukas couldn't exactly spot the duo, despite his stature, which meant they probably went off to some training grounds? It would be a good time to get a good grip on the areas of the school if he couldn't exactly locate them. Rubbing the back of his neck, he elicited a slight sigh as he passed down the steps, progressing through the crowds of peasants and nobles alike. As he moved through, he couldn't help but get the feeling that someones eyes were locked on the back of his head, piercing through his skull. His eyes jutted back to notice a group of blue blood taking glances at him as they moved before focusing on another person. Frowning, he couldn't help but feel somewhat... bothered by them... then again, it could be his paranoia switching on. Regardless, as soon as he was far enough from them, he sat down off to the side and jutted the details about those nobles he had never noticed before; they were possibly upperclassmen, at most as they had older, much more distinct features. [hider=Noble #13][img]http://static.zerochan.net/King.Corobo.full.1797278.jpg[/img][/hider] From what he described, he was the shortest of the trio, though he seemed the most imposing and readily alert out of the three. Dressed in radiant red with green pants, he seemed to be the most well dressed, though it was a tinge bit too fancy. [hider=Noble #14][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/15/93/38/1593389d7be40834c01af9296ec94fa0.jpg[/img][/hider] Next was a lady who appeared much similar to Lunalel in knightly aspects, though, she appeared more stylish which distinguished her from the blonde haired beaut. She lacked the essential part of armor that protected her torso, but other than that, she looked well defended, though, appeared bored. [hider=Noble #15][img]http://pre08.deviantart.net/57c6/th/pre/i/2011/048/7/c/kaito_the_white_rabbit_prince_by_ksgentei-d38yhyu.jpg[/img][/hider] The final man was rather strange in retrospect and stood out like a sore thumb. His hair appeared to be dyed a dark shade of blue; generally most of what you saw on him was blue, aside from the white clothing; looked way to tacky. Seemed to be way too flamboyant and outgoing towards other nobles. [hr] Closing his book, Lukas stood up, dusting himself off as he brandished his booklet before stashing it away. As discretely as he could, he began to traverse back to his personal dorm, but ended up catching wind of two nobles he saw in class chattering wildly. There was a bewildered look in one of their eyes, while the other just shook her head. [color=6ecff6]"... I mean it's a rather alarming story, isn't it?"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Relax; I was here last year and they were immediately expelled right off the bat, despite being of said heritage... plus they only targeted peasants, so you should be fine."[/color] Staring at the two, that raised an eyebrow for a few mere seconds before he lost interest in the rumor being spread. He saw them as nothing but trouble, turning from a mere ant hill to a smouldering volcano. Of course, one of the girls took note of him as he turned his head away, frowning as he patted his hip in a rhythmic fashion. Lukas didn't exactly catch hold of this as he traversed passed her, unaware she was descending in on him until he felt a delicate hand grasp his shoulder before shaking it. [color=6ecff6]"Hey, hey you! You're a peasant, right?"[/color] Jolted by the sudden approach, he didn't turn his head quite yet, even though she kept acknowledging his existence. Eventually, the hand came off as he turned around, though the older girl pulled her back, scolding her for acting in such a brash way before apologizing for the way her cousin acted. [color=f26522]"Hey, no need to be so formal, though, I'm kind of surprised that you're apologizing for the way she's acting instead of berating me for not responding right off the bat,"[/color] Lukas smiled, waving off the whole thing. Putting a hand to his hip, the woman could only squint her eyes, frowning at him. [color=f7941d]"She was acting unladylike, and possibly surprised you; as much as I distaste saying it, you wern't at fault here,"[/color] she replied with a hmph before telling the younger girl to be off to not bother themselves which such trifling matters, like interacting with someone as lowly as him. Well, at least they didn't scorn him right off the bat? Rolling his eyes and shrugging, he began to walk down the same path the duo were traveling before the younger piped up. [color=6ecff6]"Hey, just to give you a fair warning, there have been some be- mmph!"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Quiet; we don't need silly rumors to start up again, especially things that transpired last year."[/color] Lukas could only raise his eyebrow, wondering what they were exactly speaking about. [color=f26522]"So what happened the prior year exactly?"[/color] He tilted his head to the side, staring at both of them with wide blue eyes. The more excitable and frailer of the two was shut down while the much more harsh lady began explaining. [color=f7941d]"Some nobles didn't like the idea of certain people like you attending the school, so they went around beating them until said peasants would leave the school. It lasted for a day or two before they were ousted. Their actions were unacceptable and shamed us all, but they had one fair point."[/color] She raised a finger before stopping, Lukas coming to a halt too. He felt that slender finger press against his chest as the girl looked at him with disdain. Lukas eyed her warily, staring at the way she was positioned, denoting it to be of a rather passive aggressive stance. Taking one step back, he leaned a little back as he frowned back at the girl, furrowing his brows. Her mouth was open, ready to fire off whatever ideals she had, but instead bared he teeth and refrained, leaving Lukas rather befuddled. However, she then mumbled something else that Lukas didn't catch and backed up before dragging her cousin away. Lukas shook his head, putting a hand up to it, pondering over what she might of spewed under her breath. Leaving it alone, he sighed before walking the other way as he continued to explore the school, thinking on the topic of the beatings. Tapping his thumb against his lips, he stared off to the sides as he mapped out the campus mentally. As he continued around, he spotted a garden that was adorned with different types of beautiful flowers, ranging from myriads of different colors. Kneeling down, he couldn't help but smell a few, taking in the ambrosia of nature. He knew the next best place to take those two! Maybe he could pick a few for both of the lovely ladies... if it wasn't against school policy; didn't want to risk getting in trouble for such a minor misdeed. Though, he did have to admit he was able to identify some of the flowers such as the Alpine Rose and Edelwiess. They reminded him of his homeland, though he didn't have enough time to dote on such things as there were other important endeavors to attend to. Passing by the few starry eyed students who occupied the area, he passed by what looked to be a young man petting a... piece of roman cabbage as he sat on the ground. Lukas couldn't help but stare at the boy as the noble departed from the area, shaking his head at what action the boy was taking. [color=f26522]"Strange boy,"[/color] he mumbled before going on to seeking the training grounds. ... ... After thirty minutes of seeking the place, he finally found it. The only thing that made it stand out was the large plot of land barely had any sort of grass growing on it, had a couple of training dummies for physical endeavors and large golems that had an hue within their eyes, ranging from purple to red. Their bodies looked no more than a slew of brown to a light shade of caramel. They lacked any mouths or distinct features other than their glowing eyes. As he entered the area, he found most people hard at work, ranging from a few lower class civilians flinging elemental balls to nobles practicing their own magic, such as one drawing something on paper before releasing it to attack said golem. It appeared to be a swell place to fight it all out, however he lacked any sort of equipment, namely his swords. He could always use one of the logs on the outskirts of the area to chuck and smash the golem, but it just wouldn't feel right without his weapons of choice. As Lukas discerned the vicinity, he passed on by two mages dueling with one of the teachers supervising the small event. Feeling the ring on his finger as he watched briefly, he decided to head back to his dorm, feeling the ring that was wrapped around his finger. It was time for some training.[/center]
