Cerberus looked over the special menu seeing a variety of dishes made from blazing bulls, three horned rabbits and other low class mana beasts that cost around 1 to 10 gold coins.

He then shifted my gaze to the more expensive dishes on the list.

Phoenix omelette ---- 20 gold coins

Fried dragon flesh ---- 25 gold coins 

Silver deer stew --- 15 gold coins

Manticore milk --- 10 gold coins

"????"

Cerberus was astounded. The fact that they had phoenix and dragon meat was incredible. These were legendary creatures that were incredibly rare and even more difficult to kill. Phoenixes possessed an almost infinite regeneration capabilities and incredible flame attacks that could turn mages to ash in seconds. Dragons on the other hard were even harder to deal with as they were naturally resistant to magic, and hence magic attacks were weakened when used on them. Other than that, they also possessed incredibly hard scales that were tougher than steel, incredibly difficult to puncture through making them resistant to most physical attacks. To top it off they also possessed massive amounts of mana that even Arch mages could not compare to let alone normal mages. 

"They probably hunted the children of these beasts" thought Cerberus as he stepped forward towards one of the chefs. The chef was a large bulky man with a short scruffy beard and a slightly terrifying face.

"What would you like to order?" the chef asked looking at Cerberus. The chef had been working at the food hall for a long time and hence was able to differentiate the nobles from the commoners despite them wearing the same uniform because after all no matter how much you paint a chicken it could never to compare to a peacock and the man Infront of him looked like a common chicken. A handsome chicken but still a chicken.

"I would like fried dragon flesh and manticore milk please?"

"...."

The chef showed a shocked face as he wondered whether he had heard wrong.

"I'm sorry but could you repeat that?" he asked Cerberus, this time paying full attention

"I would like fire dragon flesh and manticore milk"

"..."

The chef was speechless. Even the students around him were speechless. After all this commoner was ordering one of the most expensive dishes on the special menu.

A commoner!!

A person that usually only ever dreamed of acquiring a gold coin was ordering a dish worth 35 gold coins.

It was absurd.

The chef gaze hovered on the face of Cerberus, his mind racing as he came up with two theories.

Either this boy was a noble or…. he was simply a commoner with a large set of balls. If It was the latter, then he was playing a dangerous game. After all, meal costs could not be refunded and hence he needed to pay the entire cost and if he was thinking of cheating his way out of paying then he was in for a world of hell.

"Are you sure?" asked the chef one more time trying to give the young lad a way out.

"Yes" said Cerberus

"Alright." Said the chef sighing "since this is a meal from the special menu then it will be delivered to you personally. I've already memorised your mana signature, so I know where to find you."

"Thank you" said Cerberus leaving the chef and nearby students puzzled by what had just happened.

Cerberus headed to section 1 and chose a small table in the corner where no one else was sitting. He preferred to be alone as he could focus more on his thoughts without outside interference. For example, right now he was thinking on which courses he should pick among the numerous ones in the academy.

He was so deep in his thoughts that he didn't notice that two people had arrived at his table. One was a beautiful girl with pale blonde hair, blue eyes that shone like the surface of the ocean on a bright day and an ample chest and curvy body that could be seen even beneath her uniform making her incredibly sexy. The other was a girl who did not lose in terms of beauty with long brown hair and eyes the colour of soft brown dirt. Her figure was shapely like an hourglass and even though she wore a cape, one could still catch a glimpse of her unearthly beauty. The former was his sister Circe while the latter was the girl he had met with in the carriage.

The two girls drew the attention of most of the first-year students and even some second and third year students. Across the hall, Shawn could be seen gazing at the two girls with eyes filled with lust like those around him. In another corner of the hall sat a young boy who was tightly clenching his fist at the scene before him as he angrily bit into the leg of a phoenix before chewing intensely turning the meat into mush that one couldn't help but wonder if it would ever be swallowed.

The young man was Narsta. The first-year student who Cerberus had left unconscious on the rooftop. He had regained consciousness at around 3 am in the morning, his body shivering from the cold of the night. He had felt at that moment an enormous amount of pain that came from having his ribs broken for the first time but luckily in his ring he had a health potion that could heal him which he took immediately feeling the soft waves of mana penetrating his body as his ribs began to heal. After a few minutes he was completely healed however the rage and humiliation he felt had only increased as he vowed to inflict unto the commoner unimaginable pain and misery.

With the numerous thoughts of vengeance in his head, Narsta continued having his meal while watching the commotion that was occurring in front of him.

"Cerb. I've finally found you" said the beautiful girl with pale blonde hair, her blue eyes trembling with emotion, her pearl white teeth enchanting the nearby boys. She sat down before turning to signal her companion to sit down as well.

"Hello Circe"

Cerberus nodded at Circe before turning towards the other girl.

"And who are you?" questioned Cerberus. His voice was cold as he addressed the girl and for a moment as the girl gazed into his light green that now lacked any trace of warmth, she shivered a little before quickly regaining her composure and introducing herself.

"My name is Petula Bluee. "

She stretched out her right hand towards Cerberus to conduct a handshake.

At first Cerberus wanted to reject her outstretched hand but after looking at Circe who was giving him a pleading look. He sighed and stretched out his right hand shaking Petula's hand.

"I am Cerberus"

Petula's hand felt soft like cotton that would make any man happy just holding it but Cerberus retracted his hand only after a few short seconds.

He was, after all, not an ordinary man.
