Alex Brim, Hero for Hire   Chapter 1.1 - Quest in Azurath 1.1

Alex skilfully avoided the questions by talking the least possible about him while riding his horse next to James Macdonald. “I am used to having my employers doubting my skills in the first job, but then they realize I am way more powerful than the money they paid for my services, and they always hire me again.” “Well, I will be one of them, for sure. Your services were extremely useful, and we completed this extremely dangerous Quest with none of us dying, and… I was told that you are also a powerful Mage, but I only saw you using a sword, daggers, bow, and your shield. I noticed you glowing a little with Magic when you were running at an incredible speed to that Orc, but it was only that time.”

In the morning, Sakamo Ryu grabbed his new School bag and left his house. His new School was only a six-minute walk, that was one of the reasons why he rented that house. The other one was that the real state agency also informed him that there was a nice family restaurant nearby and a small market. In the street, there was a familiar man disguised in a municipal uniform, sweeping the floor. Sakamo Ryu made a slight nod, and the man returned it. Ryu walked and looked left and right, trying to find a place where he could have breakfast, considering it was still early for School, and he couldn’t eat breakfast at home because he didn’t buy grocerie

The Principal gulped. Applying to the admission tests of all the High Schools and getting the highest score on all of them was not a simple task. Having such a student attending his School would also be good for him, not only to increase the status of the School, but because he could also brag about having an amazing student under his care. “I see… I thank you for that choice, and I hope we don’t make you regret it. It will be an honour to have you here, and I do hope we can help you in your future when you graduate.” “As do I, Principal. By the way, I may need to be absent one or two

Kaishu Katsu walked to his desk and faced his students. He took a slow deep breath and spoke, “Place the page with your answers on my desk when class ends. Don’t forget to put your name on it. It’s probably better if we relax for a while and everyone says a few things about themselves so that we can know each other a little better. Who wants to start?” A girl in the left row spoke while looking at Sakamo with dreamy eyes, “Sensei, I wouldn’t mind hearing everything about Sakamo-kun! Maybe he doesn’t mind being the first if we ask him nicely!” Kaishu Katsu slowly nodded and faced the o

Lunch time arrived, and a bunch of girls from his class dragged Sakamo out with some boys joining the mix, just to watch the show and laugh at his expense. In the corridor, Sakamo looked to his left, trying to find Takechi Hito, but there was only a group of students talking, and he was not there. Sakamo made a forced smile to the smiling girl clinging on his right arm, Hangaku Mae, and her partner in crime on his left arm, Tomiko Hari, a purple-haired girl with tiny glasses and medium-sized breasts, that contrasted with the yellow painted hair of Hangaku Mae and her big breasts, that were squashed against Sakamo’s arm.

Takechi Hito asked while entering the cafeteria, “How did you do that? And you are not afraid of their revenge? What if they snitch you out to the Principal? You could get a suspension!” “Don’t worry about them anymore, but if they annoy you again, tell me, ok? I will make sure they have to eat through a straw for six months. After lunch, I will go have a talk with your classmates. They should have helped you, those cowards.” Takechi Hito looked down and spoke in a low voice, “Sakamo-kun… Thanks… I used to be mocked because of my looks and weight in Middle School, and I thought things

Tomiko felt her cheeks turning hot and said, “Sakamo-kun? Yes… he sure is...” “Tomiko-chan, you know very well I was not talking about Sakamo-kun… I meant Takechi-kun, or Takechi-sama, like Sakamo-kun calls him.” “Yeah… I guess he is… kind of sweet… I am used to having boys flattering me, but the way he says things… and the way he looks at me… it’s like… if I am the only girl around. It’s… kind of nice. Most of the time, boys get distracted by Hangaku-chan boldness and prettiness, but he didn’t look at her ever since he sat next to me, not even once. It was like… if I was the only gir
