"We prepared your breakfast for your older brothers and sisters let them be since the intercom brought such unexpected news.
"What news?" Apollo asked, feeling that it had sothing to do with the emperor's command.
"Oh the imperial secretary Maquis Berk just explains the recent incident of hundreds of noble individuals dying overnight"
Instantly, fifteen heads looked at a single individual; it was none other than Apollo. That action, however, causes the maid and the butler to look at each other.
"Please pay no mind to their action," Apollo simply said, finding their stare suspicious.
"I apologize, but if it isn't too concerning, may I know your na, dear student," the butler asked Apollo, to which he imdiately answered.
"My na is Apollo Lionheart"
As he said his na the two servants made an 'Oh' reaction.
"Please don't think of anything else"
"It's alright student we do know it might be a family business so we won't pursue the topic, shall we head to the dining hall"
Apollo wanted to say more but decided to concede. After all, it was really farfetched if they ever thought of their family as an imperial hunting dog.
"If it wasn't out of the ordinary because if I was ordered to kill soone by the emperor, I know that I wouldn't hesitate to obey him," he just thought, but then, before they could even leave the common room, the voice that was speaking change. Instead, it was a voice Apollo just heard this morning.
{As for this morning I Augustus first of my na your ruler and protector shall pass on the judgnt upon my brother Nero Von Celestio}
The screen then panned the emperor's expression. He was stern and determined, looking like a ruler who would do anything for justice.
[As the emperor do my duty to protect the empire like my forefathers did, so as for today, you are no longer a mber of the imperial family and to answer for your cris. You Nero hereby sentenced to death}
Apollo who was listening couldn't help but smirk then he looked at Niko and said "Here is the announcent you are asking for"
The entire class knew what he ant, so all they could do was laugh a little.
"We should prepare for the main event"
Matilda mutters as she stretches her arms, appearing to be warming up.
"Shhh....hold your tongue, please," Keith advised while secretly pointing toward the maid and the butler.
"No worries, I got it covered. Talk freely as you can," Aaron gestures while shards of golden light begin to dance around them, demonstrating the power of space.
Agnes, on the other hand, had her eyes closed and seed to be contemplating sothing.
"Sothing matter?"
"You okay?"
Niko and Apollo ask, seeing her beco more silent than usual.
"I am sorry I just thought about taking a peek into the future since it seems a big event will definitely happen"
"You don't really need to push yourself like that," Niko simply said, not wanting Agnes to strain herself.
"So did you manage to see anything?"
"About that Apollo I think it is best if I showed it to you using my mories since it's a bit hard for to explain" Continue your adventure at My Virtual Library Empire
"Alright I will see it later"
"Perhaps you don't really need to wait for that." Alicia suddenly steps in, and all of a sudden, she takes a fragnt from Agnes' mory and shares it with Apollo.
"!?"
"Whoah!"
The two were suddenly taken aback by her action, not expecting that she could hijack their mory and just interfere with it.
"Scary did you just allow her to insert that fragnt?"
[I didn't Creator, it seems even the system did not perceive her actions as malicious thus it did not block her]
"Is that so... Should I perhaps adjust the settings I put in it"
[Maybe but that still depends on you]
Apollo began to think but the mory that ca from Agnes began to eat away his attention.
"Hhhhhhmmmmmmm....." He mused, but now he understood why Agnes could not explain it, Besides being blurry, all Apollo could see were moving silhouettes of people he was unfamiliar with.
"Jeremiah"
[Yes Creator]
"Scan this mory and see if you can run a data analysis on any people that may be associated with them"
[I will try Creator]
Fortunately, it seems in the mory, a fight broke out, and if they can use the skills and abilities in the mory, then perhaps they could identify them. Jeremiah already gathered countless information so it should suffice.
As Apollo studied the mory, he noticed how the place seed to be happening in a place familiar to him, but due to the quality, he could barely see the surroundings.
"All I could guess is so sort of battle is going on since so many explosions keep ringing inside the mory"
"I could only hypothesize that Nero's death sentence will trigger a riot, we should be prepared and I should also report this to the emperor"
while he planned his next move, they finally arrived inside the dining hall.
"Welco please co and sit down"
If the first year's dormitory has a simple dining hall with adequate space for at least twenty people, the dining hall of the seniors is not only big but also beautiful. It doesn't have over-decorated items, but it has a minimalist setup, with furniture lined up to be useful. Despite that, the place was oozing with elegance. The dark the of the palace, combined with the gold markings around it, made it seem part of the royal family. The pieces of furniture also adhered to the the; either littered with gold or black and dark blue patterns that seed to blend well with the linings of the black floor. Aside from the dark the, a beautiful chandelier made of crystal is hung to create the right light to allow the visitors to marvel at the dining hall. From the decorations and furniture, the kids' eyes landed on the long table with chairs stationed at its side.
"Now it really feels like we are so royalty," Arabella can't help but say, rembering how the imperial palace has a similar style, though it is much lighter in color than the lower-class dormitory.
"Co now, we have prepared everything to welco you," the butler-looking old man said as he made a gesture. Suddenly, from the door at the side, five people ca out bringing food on each of their trays.
At that mont, a delicious scent of food ca forth, demanding attention from the people at the table. His servants, on the other hand, were very happy with their reactions.
"These are way too many for us," Vesta realized as soon as the table was full.
"Don't worry my lady if you can't finish the food we had prepared you can just bring it with you once you return back to your dorm"
Mckenzie, the certified glutton of the class, imdiately devoured the food in front of him; this action, however, made the servants excited to serve him even more.
"Wait, co to think of it, we don't even know your nas," Alya said as she realized they had been prioritizing their needs and not even bothering to introduce themselves.
"Ah right I guess we did forget that since we beca quite excited with your arrival, well then allow to introduce the humble workers of this dormitory"
Then, as if in the military, the five servants who were eagerly giving food to McKenzie lined up beside the butler-looking guy.
"These five here are the people keeping the dormitory clean... Go on introduce yourselves"
With his urging, the five not-so-old and young n nodded and then imdiately spoke one by one.
"My na is Chester I am responsible for cleaning the third floor"
"Hi I am the one in charge of the library and training room, my na is Duri"
"Good morning my na is Cid, I mainly clean the ground floor but I also help here in the kitchen''
"I am mainly in charge of the fourth floor my na is Gideon"
"I'm Doner my cleaning jurisdictions is on the fifth floor"
"We are all happy to serve your breakfast, students," they all said simultaneously as they bowed to show respect.
"Then I think it's my turn." This ti, it was the old lady who had called them earlier.
"This old servant here is your head maid, I rely assign the task of the maids and cleaners around the dormitory"
Then after her, the second old-looking person ca to speak; unlike the butler-looking old man, this maid hadn't said a word since they saw them.
"I am sorry for the late introduction this servant here handles the cleaning of the second floor and although I am old as you experience my cleaning is still superb"
Then, from the side door, another round of people ca. More introductions happened, leaving a single individual.
"As you can see I am the butler of this place my na is Brutus Von Celestio"
Apollo, who was calmly sipping his tea, couldn't help but spit his drink as soon as he heard his words.
"What did you just say?" He mutters in shock.
