Relishing the sweet rush of power pulsating through his veins, he unconsciously flexed his muscles — His action resulting in tight popping-like crack noises to echo out."Young Master!" an excited sounding voice suddenly broke through his power-dazed state. Looking towards the source, Jedidiah gazed at the figure who had just rushed into the gazebo in a hurried manner, like someone whose pants had caught fire. "Don't tell me the other boutiques rejected you too?" Jedidiah's brows shot up, his tone heavily laced with sarcasm. In the face of this q
Chapter 12
Ignoring the incredulous stares he was receiving from the young Aristocrats around him, Jedidiah remained completely unfazed as he calmly alighted from the back of the scooter. He was just about to head inside the Hotel building when he was stopped at the entrance by the red carpet, by the two mean-looking bouncers stationed at both sides. "Is there a problem, sirs?" Jedidiah nearly went out of breath as he stared at the small mountains of muscles blocking his path. — Ever since obtaining the system, Jedidiah had unconsciously been shedding away his skin of inferiority and slowly begun to grow confident. However standing in front of the two bouncers at that moment, he felt like he had regressed back to his old self. — Weak, Inferior and irrelevant. "I'm sorry but this event is strictly on an invitation only basis." the towering bouncer on the left snorted, his voice as loud as the roaring engine of a train. "I got an invite. Here, I'll show you--" Jedidiah was just about to reac

As soon as Zach Vanderwaal made his appearance, a slight smirk of satisfaction curled up across his lips as he enjoyed the praises and gazes of respect and envy being showered his way. However along the line, he sensed there was a particular gaze within the crowd that felt different. Instead of oozing with envy, this particular gaze was dripping with careful assessment . — Almost like the owner was dissecting the core of his being with his eyes. "So he's my future enemy." Jedidiah's brows furrowed as he silently assessed Zach. The first time they met, he had no idea who he was, as such he treated him as a random arrogant young aristocrat. But now that he had the chance to observe him deeply, he discovered the others party had a striking trait similar to Lady CeCe; a head cascaded with silver colored hair. Not many people possessed this unique hair-color. As such it was only natural for people like Zach to instantly attract attention to themselves whenever they walked into a crowd o
Chapter 14
Upturning his brows in subtle dissatisfaction, Zach locked his gaze on Jedidiah. Judging from what he just witnessed, he could already guess that the commotion from earlier, had something to do with Jedidiah. "Enough with the disturbance. The Mystical Arts Fiesta is an exclusive event, privately hosted for only members of Shakespeare Academy." although Zach didn't say it directly, his words were extremely clear for anyone with the smallest use of their brain.- You're definitely not welcome here! "What if I told you that I'd be a student at Shakespeare Academy, starting monday this coming week?" Jedidiah replied with a relaxed smile.- According to Chuck, his parents held a special status even as Alumnis at Shakespeare Academy. As long as he was sixteen years old, he was eligible for an exclusive scholarship active for a complete five years duration. "Lies!" a sharp retort escaped Spencer's lips as he finally found a way to make a come-back. Perhaps of everyone present, he was the

The Young Master Of the Miller Clan?! All eyes unconsciously trailed over towards Zach's direction, eliciting a round of confused murmurs amongst the young aristocrats present. Strange — Why would Zach need an invitation card to an event he was personally hosting?! Except--- Many of the young Aristocrats present instantly shuddered as they unconsciously rejected the audacious possibility that had just sprang up in their collective minds. There's no way what they were thinking was actually possible — It couldn't be right?! With an ugly expression forming on his face, Zach shot the figure who had just cat walked into view, a questioning look, trying to see what angle the other party was playing at.- Wasn't it already public knowledge that he was the undisputed young Master of the Miller Clan?! "Natalie.." however after being in the spotlight for nearly all his life, Zach knew how to best control his emotions — He had more than a decade of practice to perfect this trick of his.

"On behalf of the Student Comitee, I would like to express my appreciation to all those who made out time to attend the Mystical Arts Fiesta, personally hosted by me tonight." the two hundred plus young aristocrats present in the opulent Sky Lounge inside the Grand Regency Hotel, were forced to stop their socializing once they heard the sound of a fork lightly tapping against the surface of goblet shaped glass. The Sky Lounge Interior was roughly the area size of a basketball gym room. It's sleek floor plan boasted of a seating pattern that was quite simple: four chairs were each assigned to one of the many dining tables littered across the wide expanse of the Sky Lounge. Amidst the urbane festivities, smartly dressed servers moved with impeccable but discreet precision, replacing empty cocktail glasses with fresh ones, while catering to the culinary whims of the young socialites present. As for the food, even though they appeared light, seemed to be a deliberate but masterful fus
Chapter 17
The entire Sky Lounge plunged into pin drop silence as about a hundred eyes shot Jedidiah cold looks, piercing right through him like daggers. Just when it felt like a torrent of insults was on the verge of being unleashed at him, the crisp sound of somebody deliberately clearing their throat, cut through the pensive atmosphere. "Mister Jedidiah makes a solid argument." with her well painted manicures tapping against the surface of the dining table before her in a well measured tempo, Natalie's cherry red lips parted open as she continued speaking. "Back when I was studying in Europe, I was once a member of a certain exclusive Writers Club. Even though it's been quite a long time since I reached out.." in the middle of speaking, Natalie's eyes briefly darted towards Blaire's direction, before she continued. "It just so happens that two of its members are in the city on a social visit. To ensure fairness, I suggest that they preside over tonight's event. It wouldn't hurt to have a

"Invictus.. by William Ernest Henley." Jedidiah blurted out, the words coming out of his mouth before he could stop them. "Hm?" he wasn't the only one who was taken aback by his response as well. With an astonished crease appearing across his brows, Zach clicked his tongue in a frustrated manner.- It seemed he went a bit too easy! Since Jedidiah managed to give a valid reply, the next person besides Zach had their turn to quote a poetry line. As the young Aristocrats around him took turns playing the game with gusto, Jedidiah was completely silent, fully immersed in his thoughts. To make up for his deficient aptitude in the past back at Blue Prep School, Jedidiah had dabbled in a lot of extracurricular activities like music, painting , video games clubs, etc. However Poetry wasn't one of them. Yet just now when he heard Zach quote that poetry line from earlier, something in his brain clicked. It was as if he had been studying poetry all his life and the response just flew out fro

"Impossible!" Zach sharply blurted, eliciting confused gazes all around him. Sensing the awkward atmosphere his exclaimation just created, he inhaled sharply, the pitch of his voice decreasing drastically. "I apologize." Jedidiah's brows jumped as his lips split sideways into an amused smirk. "What is the matter, Mister Zach? Was my answer incorrect?" Jedidiah's question raised suspicions in the hearts of the young Aristocrats present as their gaze were redirected towards Zach's direction. —[You have trolled Zachary Vanderwaal for +100.. +100.. +100] Sensing the piercing gazes all around him, Zach balled his fist in an attempt to stiffle his rage. The poem he had just quoted was a piece his father had obtained from a silent auction. Apart from himself and his father, only a certain handful of individuals had seen the poem. He struggled to understand how Jedidiah had knowledge about the poem. Even though there was a looming possibility Jedidiah was the grandson of the illustrious

"N--No. How is this even possible?" a wave of dizziness hit Zach like a tsunami at the unexpected turn of events. He wasn't deaf or blind that he wouldn't notice the impact Jedidiah's poem had. Not to mention the fact that he actually quoted the authentic "The Rushing Wind Flows" word for word!!"What is the matter Mister Zach? don't tell me I got the poem wrong..again?" Jedidiah's voice broke Zach out from his stupified daze. Sensing the malevolent intent in the other party's tone, Zach felt cold sweat slowly slid down his back, soaking the fabrics of his expensive shirt. The only reason he had lied about the poem was because he was confident nobody present knew about their existence and when it came down to it, it would be Jedidiah's words against his. Naturally the one who would've won the public's favor would definitely be him. However he had never expected that not only did Jedidiah know about the "Death shall have no Dominion" poem, he also knew "The Rushing Wind Flows" poe
