[Raven's POV]
"Let's go."
Sir Kendy said to me as soon as we're out of the dormitory that I'm staying.
"What do you mean? Aren't you supposed to lead me there?"
I asked him.
"Yeah, so let's go."
And Sir Kendy replied casually.
At his words, I looked around.
But there's none... I can't see what I'm looking for.
"Did you bring a vehicle?"
So I asked Sir Kendy in the end.
Lunar Academy is huge, and the headmaster's office, or should I say building, is thousands of meters away from where we are!
But at my question, Sir Kendy just tilted his head.
'Fuck! His face is like asking what am I talking about!'
I exclaimed internally.
And indeed, my guess was right.
"I just ran all the way here."
Sir Kendy replied as a sly smile appeared on his face.
"We're gonna run all the way to the headmaster's office."
He added in a teasingly.
(Raven immediately dropped his formality toward Kendy when he heard his words.)
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Kendy asked me after just staring at him for a while.
I shook my head in response and just started gathering mana to my legs and feet.
And seeing me do that, Kendy let out a curious smile.
"Come to think of it, a lot of students said that they always see someone run all over the academy for hours."
He said.
"So it was you..."
"Yeah, so what?"
"Nothing... Let's go."
After our few exchange of words, I prepared myself to run any moment.
'When Kendy run, follow immediately.'
I told to myself.
Then...
Bam-
I heard a fairly loud noise beside me.
And Kendy vanished from my sight.
Swoosh-
And in a second, he was already so far away from me!
'Though, I already expected it...'
I thought as I saw Kendy looking back at my direction.
He was smirking mischievously!
"Oh, and don't get left behi–"
Swoosh-
Kendy was about to provoke me, and tease me for not being able to follow him.
Though, before he can even finish his words.
"What were you saying?"
I appeared beside him and asked with a smirk.
"!"
I can see Kendy's shocked face, his widened eyes and his mouth that's slightly open.
It was satisfying.
I already predicted he would pull off a stupid trick on me.
So as soon as I heard the noise of Kendy launching off, I immediately reformed [Celestria] into a pair of wings!
And when I saw Kendy's figure... I immediately kicked off the ground and flapped my wings as hard as I could, and flew toward Kendy.
'I don't want Kendy teasing me here and there, so my surprise action should make him shut up.'
So with a genuine smile on my face...
"Hurry up, Sir Kendy."
Tap.
I said to Kendy and tapped his shoulder lightly.
"You cheeky brat..."
But then, I saw Kendy smiling.
"It's a race that you want huh."
He muttered, and I have no fucking idea what he's talking about.
"I'll only use a quarter of my speed, so be sure to not fall behind!"
"Wait, I don't want to ra–"
Bam-!
Swooosh-
I was about to stop Kendy from his wrong assumption.
But he suddenly disappeared and appeared hundreds of meters away from me!
"Kendy you fucking donkey!"
Bam-!
Swoosh-
So in the end, I was forced to follow him, or should I say, have a race against him.
***
"Haaah...haa...hah.."
"Good job following me without falling behind."
Kendy said as he looks down at the panting Raven in front of him.
They're already in front of the building where the headmaster's office is.
Kendy and Raven's little 'race' lasted for 1 minute and 59 seconds.
With Kendy winning by a 2.8 seconds.
They ran a total of; 2057 meters.
It's a distance that Raven wouldn't have a problem running without getting tired... If he's not running at full speed while using mana to flap his wings.
But because Raven always run all around the academy in the morning, he knows where the headmaster's office is.
So Raven was able to reach their destination even though he can't really follow Kendy.
While in their little 'race', Raven could only see a glimpse of Kendy's afterimage because of how fast he is!
And those afterimages are what Raven followed.
"I hate you..."
Gulp-
Gulp-
Raven stated quietly and gulped down a mana and a stamina potion.
"Fucking hell..."
Raven mumbled.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Swoosh-
Click-
And he immediately entered the building without waiting for Kendy.
Meanwhile, Kendy was frowning as he looks at Raven's back.
'I used more than a quarter of my speed...'
He thought.
Agility isn't Kendy's strong point, but he's still an <S+> ranker and his agility stat is <A+>!
'Raven's speed is absurdly high...'
"What a weird kid."
Kendy mumbled as he followed Raven.

[Raven's POV]
"Fuu..."
I let out a sigh to calm myself.
I'm currently in front of the headmaster's office.
One of the strongest being, not just in the human domain, but in the whole world!
He's one of the 1st generation awakeners!
So I'm slightly nervous.
But I already know why I was called.
"What, you're not gonna enter?"
It was then, I heard Kendy beside me.
He was looking at me like I was some kind of a weirdo.
"I will."
I replied to him with a frown.
Tok- Tok-
And knocked on the office's door.
"We're here old man!"
Kendy yelled.
Swoosh-
Click-
And the sliding door immediately opened.
Not beating around the bush, I walked in the room.
Tap-
Fwooosh–
"!"
But as soon as I stepped inside, cold chills washed all over me!
My body stiffened and stopped obeying me!
My surroundings got darker, and because of that, I got wary and became defensive!
"Raven Obadiah."
Fwoooh-
"Keuk...!"
I couldn't help but groan when I heard someone unfamiliar called my name, his voice contains a lot of power.
And it's pressing down on me!
I couldn't use my skills!
'Sariel!'
So I called for Sariel.
[I'm on it!]
And after that...
Fwoosh–!
<Monarch's Presence> activated to the max and protected me.
I regained a bit of control of my body.
With that, I forcefully scattered my mana all around me!
By doing so, my mana protected me too from the pressure.
And I was finally able to move at my free will!
So I immediately boosted the effect of <Calm Thinker>.
And that's when I saw what state I'm in.
I was covered with cold sweats as my body trembles a bit.
I immediately stopped my trembling and looked in front of me.
Then with a smile...
"I greet the the headmaster."
I muttered with confidence.
And I asked Sariel to appraise the headmaster.

'What a fucking monster that I created...'
I thought.
Then I saw the headmaster looking at me with curiosity as he opened his mouth.
"So, you can endure that much huh... You're amazing."
He complimented me.
"Now then, would you like to have a talk with this old man?"
And he asked me.
"It would be my honor to."
I replied.
