"You want this soup right?" Sam asked with both of his arms extended.
"Of course, only if you don't need it. I can't pressure you into handing it over right?" Rain acted as if the previous five minutes didn't even happen between them.
Sam on the other hand suddenly smiled and…
*Spit* *Spit*
Two shots of saliva one in each bowl entered the soup. The whole place quitened down. It is a pin drop silence. Rain who was about to extend his hands looked at the soup, and then Sam. He couldn't comprehend what had happened for a moment.
It almost took a minute for him to come back to his senses and his face turned red in anger.
It is almost like all the blood in his body entered his face. His teeth are grinding so hard that a few mini chips flew away. His gums started bleeding and he looked like a bull that has gone mad with his deep exhales.
"HOW DARE YOU?"
*SLAP*
He swung his hand and slapped the two bowls out of Sam's hand in one swift action.
Sam who looked at his empty hands looked at Rain with a blank expression. He blinked once and then…
*PAK*
A slap landed straight on Rain's face.
For Rain everything suddenly turned into slow motion. He felt the whole restaurant revolve slowly and something hard suddenly hit his back, then only he felt a stinging pain on his cheek.
Then his eyes blacked out. He didn't see anything but a few glittering flashes in darkness, before his vision returned to normal.
Everyone stood up and watched the scene in horror.
The status of a student in Divine Region is actually very common but it is not small. Particularly for the people who are not the students of the academies, that status is akin to a behemoth. It is an iron rule that has never been broken that the students are always respected by the normal citizens and visitors.
But today, Sam who is supposedly someone that came for entrance examinations, slapped a student so hard that he made a round in the air before hitting the ground.
The lackeys of Rain were the first to come out of the shock. They immediately ran over.
"How dare you?" One of them yelled and charged at Sam.
But Sam once again was very cool about this, he slipped and landed a perfectly square slap on that guy's face and this time the force is a bit more directive. The lackey flew over and crashed into the wall.
This stopped the remaining two.
Sam stopped and pulled his chair a bit outward and sat on it.
"Whoever steps forward is going taste a slap with my full strength next time. I won't even care if you fucking die."
By now Rain came back to his senses and stood up.
"How dare you hit me? Me? A student of Zeus academy? Do you know how big of an offense is that? It is against the realm laws for someone who is not a student to attack a student. You are going to die for it. Just you wait.
You better fall on your knees and start begging now before the enforcement team comes here."
*PAK*
As soon as he finished the sentence, another slap landed on his face. Sam's moves were so fast that he barely noticed him stand up and sit down.
Rain collapsed on to his knees instantly and his eyes started tearing up.
"Stop threatening you dumb fuck.
There are a few things you need to take note, before you start spouting some bullshit about the laws of the realm.
First, I was minding my own business with my food. You are the dumbass that approached me.
Second, you are the one that constantly tried to use your status and talked about owing favors.
Third, you are the one who talked all the shit about how you will mess up my admission if I don't comply to you.
Fourth, I didn't spit on your face you donkey's bloody asshole. I spit in my own soup. The soup that I bought with my own fucking money. But you are the one that slapped my soup.
You know how much that soup costs right? It is twenty thousand gold coins you fucking retard. You are the one that destroyed my valuable property. Do you think I am a saint to not hit you after you did all that?
Enforcement squad or whatever, let it come. I will not fucking leave this place until I get my two bowls of soup back."
Everyone looked at Sam and Rain and went into thought after they heard his words. The words made sense to them. Everything Sam said happened, even though they didn't see the threatening part, they just went with the flow and just filled in the gaps.
But Rain was horrified. He pointed his finger at Sam and yelled.
"WHO THREATENED YOU? I GAVE YOU TIPS TO PASS THE EXAM AND I OFFERED MORE TIPS IF YOU LET ME BUY THE SOUP. HOW DARE YOU SLANDER ME LIKE THIS? ARE YOU LOOKING DOWN ON THE ZEUS ACADEMY?"
*PAK*
Sam slapped him again and this time he touched the ground with his face. Sam literally looked down on him and said.
"No, you dumbshit, I am just looking down on you."
Sam said as he looked at Pearl and the remaining two lackeys.
"If you want to take this guy back, bring me the two bowls of that special soup. And they have to the exact same temperature as the time he ruined them. Otherwise, don't even dream about taking him away from here.
I heard that this restaurant runs through the night.
Just so you know, I don't have anywhere to be."
Pearl didn't even change her expression. She just ordered one of the lackeys. Go and report the situation to the Enforcement squad and then immediately bring some seniors from our Academy. At least second years."
The two lackeys immediately ran away.
Pearl walked forward and took a seat not too far away from Sam. She didn't even glance at Rain and just focused on Sam.
"May I know your name?" She asked Sam with a gentle smile.
Sam glanced at her from top to bottom. He didn't act reserved. He just gave her a good look in front of everyone. Rain who saw this boiled with anger and was about to speak up.
*PAK*
But a slap landed perfectly on his face. Pearl on the other hand, didn't do anything. She just showed that gentle smile and pleasant expression. She is indeed beautiful even with that mundane and plain uniform.
"Sam. What about you?"
"My name is Pearl. Nice to meet you."
"I wish I could say the same. It would have been nice if I had my soup though."
"I am wondering, why did you order ten bowls of soup? And how did you manage to hold all the energy in? You don't seem like you are expelling it from your body."
Sam chuckled and said.
"The answer to both the questions is very simple and the same."
"And that is?"
"I simply can."
Pearl's smile widened and her pearl like teeth were visible.
"You look good. Are you spoken for?" Sam asked with a smile that didn't look like a smile. Pearl just chuckled.
"I am not. Why? Do you want to court me?"
"Nah, I am just curious. My friends might come here in a few days. If any one of them is single, they can try their luck. But I am not interested."
"Now, why did that hurt my pride? To think my beauty is not enough to move you."
"Do you really think a person whose brain is working properly would be moved by just your beauty at this stage of cultivation?"
Rain almost puked blood in anger. Sam is clearly refering to him as brainless.
"True. But love makes people like that. They will turn brainless."
"Lust does that too, in fact more than love. Anyway, are you trying to buy some time for them to come and stop me?"
"Not completely. I am really interested in speaking with you."
"Why is that?"
"If you are doing this right now, then you could only be two things. You are either too smart and know what you are doing or you are too crazy and don't care what you are doing. In either cases, you are an interesting person to explore."
As she spoke to this point, a few people came running. They are all in guard uniform.
"You, stand up and get away from that person. Assaulting students is a crime punishable by explusion from academic realm."
The enforcement team captain directly spoke as he pointed his spear at Sam.
Sam looked at him with a smile.
"I am sorry, I didn't start the assault it is the student that caused me property damage." Sam said with a very relaxed smile.
"NO. HE IS LYING. ARREST HIM. SAVE ME."
Rain yelled on top of his lungs as soon as Sam spoke.
Pearl didn't even glance at him. All the interest she had on him was gone the moment he fell into Sam's trap.
The enforcement team captain looked at Sam and then at Rain. He had a frown on his face. He looked at others to see if anyone would come up and testify, the waiter was about to step forward, but Sam gestured him to back down.
He snapped his fingers and a very small insect that is in the size of a egg landed on his finger.
"I have evidence to support my claim."
