Chapter 102: Linda
"Big brother Lim, may I ask about some guidance from you?" a kid of a strange race with a long slim body and thick long tail asked.
Yet before Lim could say a word, a sudden ruckus appeared from far attracting everyone's attention.
Jim noticed a large group of disciples moving towards that place of the academy.
"It's Linda," Lim muttered when he spotted that beauty walking among a large group of disciples all around her like being her bodyguards.
"Who is she?" Jim asked as he noticed many disciples who seemed to be from different grades around her.
"She… is one of the princesses of our inner disciple campus," Lim answered before the fox boy added: "She is the pride of our campus."
"Not alone, the girl with strange hair said before adding, "I heard she is one of the three celebrities among the campus."
"Indeed she isn't the only one," Lim said before sighing, "yet she is the only one without a mate so far which made her aside from her brutal beauty a very popular girl."
"Humph," the girl harrumphed, "she is only a nymph clan girl, it's not a good reason for all her arrogance."
"Hahaha," Lim laughed in a meaningful way, "never hear an opinion about a girl from another one," he said and the girl only harrumphed.
"I know I can't be compared to her in beauty," she said, "but I'm stronger in fight despite being in grade one and her in grade two."
"True indeed," Lim agreed, "but with all her entourage who dares to come near her?" he winked and the girl harrumphed again. "What's your name?" he said before adding, "I get you are from the Sedial clan, right?"
"I'm Moora," the girl nodded, "and indeed I'm part of the Sedial clan."
"Don't mistook her for a nice weak girl of the nymph type, she is quite ferocious with her deadly hair," Lim said to Jim while Moora
"My hair is my pride," she simply stated, "I can turn it into anything, starting from weapons to shields."
"And that hair is just as sturdy as a mighty ore," Lim added, "she isn't the weak kind of a girl, or a push over."
Moora's smile grew wider with the words of Lim which she took as praise.
"Oh, the princess is coming our way," suddenly a kid of the fox clan shouted, "she is coming here… is she coming for you big brother Lim?"
"I doubt that," Lim laughed, "I tried with her like others yet failed. She… is just an impregnable fortress."
Everyone, including Jim, watched Linda come near them in steady steps while the big entourage around her was getting much closer.
"Make way Lim," one of the disciples said, "the princess is walking through here."
"I didn't stand in her path," Lim casually shrugged, answering over this giant Kroak disciple who seemed to know Lim quite well.
"She decided to walk through here, and you should create a path," another disciple of the giant clan said, "you know the rules."
Lim shrugged and didn't move while some disciples around them of the Medusa pantheon started to grow restless and nervous.
The entourage of Linda exceeded fifty disciples, making them a force not to be reckoned with!
"Calm down Zorsa," Linda said in a very soft tone, "I'm here not to walk, but stay."
Her words made everyone's faces change. Jim noticed her glances falling upon him, and like that everyone of her entourage also glanced at him.
And this was quite a weird situation, as Linda only kept looking while stopping a close distance by.
"Sandy asked me to come in person and check over you," Linda softly said before glancing over Lim and added, "but it seems you aren't sitting idle waiting for her support."
Jim suddenly got her meaning as his eyes shone for a brief moment. "Send my greetings to her then," he said without adding a word.
"That's it?" she simply asked, "don't you want anything from me?" she laughed and Jim swore his heart palpitated when she did.
"Thanks, I can manage my own business."
"Interesting," she didn't leave as she stood there and crossed her arms, "y'know all of the disciple here and even at the core campus would do anything just to speak a single word with me, and here you are looking uninterested in me."
"I just don't want trouble," Jim knew if he sought after her with his miserable strength and backing he would bring calamity upon himself.
"A man shouldn't worry about trouble, but seek it," she simply said.
"A man should be wise to know when to fight and when to run," Jim responded while everyone around were looking in confused expressions over their faces.
"A wise human… not greedy as I heard about your race," she said before adding, "anyway it's good to know your place, after all I don't put anyone in my eyes."
"Someone who has a Seducer won't need any other girl," Jim didn't accept her arrogant tone as he crushed it with her words.
And the look over her face made him feel content.
"You are arrogant," she said.
"Not less than you."
"I'm a nymph, the ace beauty of the entire academy," she bellowed in an arrogant tone. "All seek my pleasure and none has managed to reach my good side yet."
"If I want to get you my dear," Jim had a smirk smile over his face, "then you'll have no room to refuse."
"On what capital?"
"I got a Seducer, and this is enough capital."
"Humph," this time she turned around and paused in her steps, "it's not good to refuse the good intentions of a beauty."
"If the intentions are sincere from the heart then I'll gladly embrace her and her heart."
She stayed in her place with her stunning figure in front of Jim with her back to him before adding, "I ask for power and compassion, nothing hard," she sighed before walking away while her entourage gave Jim a complicated glance.
"A Seducer?" Once everyone walked away, Lim hurriedly turned to Jim as he excitedly added, "how in the fairy name did you manage to pull that out?!!"
"It was just a mere luck," Jim shrugged.
"Man, no one can have a Seducer and be only lucky," the fox kid said, "I must learn more from you. C'mon, tell me your secret," he added and all others, including even Moora, nodded and glanced towards him in question.
"It's just a lucky encounter, that's all," Jim yet laughed as he tried to get out of this embarrassed situation, "she mentioned something about what she was looking for, what's that?"
"She wants someone to take the Mengoria castle for his own," Lim sighed as he helplessly added, "she is crazy seeking revenge for her father, and that castle… is just a nightmare to masters, imagine us!"
"Interesting," Jim muttered.
"Don't try," Lim sighed, "even some masters got enchanted by her beauty and went there to fulfill her wish. None returned," Lim shook his head in regret, "she is simply asking for the impossible."
"We'll see," Jim wasn't fazed by Lim's words, and the latter simply shook his head while saying nothing.
