Reincarnated into a New World As a Vampire

Aldritch was to be taken to the academy in a private carriage, but he opted to use the normal public transport, like any commoner would, since he was still using that identity, not like he wasn't one in this world's sense. He and the slave left the house and headed towards a nearby train station that would bring them into the innermost wall.

As they left the mansion, Lada watched the two from a window in one of the floor, her face held a strange expression. She watched them until they had left completely, then she turned and headed back inside.

"This one will take us directly into the innermost wall?" Aldritch asked.

"Yes, my lord."

"Refrain from doing that in public. Outside, I am just your friend who is enrolling into the magic academy, nothing else. What was your name again?"

"Maggie." She answered respectably.

Once they got to the train station which looked way better compared to the one in other places Aldritch had been to, Maggie handled everything from purchasing tickets to the other things, not that there was much to be done. Aldritch made sure to pay attention, just so he could work it himself in future.

They boarded the train in a few minutes, and after about 40 minutes, they arrived at the gates of the innermost wall. Well, not the gates, since this one was specifically for trains. Regardless, there were still guards stationed there and the gap through the wall was adequately guarded from both side.

The train didn't make so much of a journey once it entered the land of the nobles, coming to a stop soon after.

"From here we'll have to trek the rest of the way." Maggie said.

Aldritch didn't question her, after all, it would be frowned upon if commoners were to stop any public carriage inside the innermost wall for a lift. Even though they had the money, they might not even be entertained by any carriage. There was also the fact that they shouldn't have the means to pay for such expensive services.

After walking for some minutes, Maggie and Aldritch came before the gates of the academy grounds. Much like Gavik's residence compound, the academy grounds looked exquisite and screamed high class. Surely, the nobles lived completely different lives. Such a scenery would be akin to paradise for a commoner who had hardly even seen silver before in his life.

"Stop there, who's this?" One of the guards standing at the academy gates asked with a light frown on his face.

"Even though you belong to a good merchant family, this isn't a place you can just enter, you know?" The other one said. He was more relaxed, a sharp contrast to his companion who seemed a bit hot blooded.

Before Maggie could speak up, Aldritch did.

"I've come to register into the magic academy."

"Huh? DO you think this is someplace you can joke about?" The angry guard said.

"Hey, look, this is the magic academy, you know? Not just anyone can come here and enroll, you'd have to possess extra ordinary talent for such a thing to-" the other guard tried to explain calmly, but Aldritch wasn't going to stand there and listen to his lectures.

*SWOO

Aldritch drove a strong kick towards the guard's head, stopping only moments before touching his head. The guard who was focused elsewhere couldn't even react on time. If Aldritch had planned to carry on the attack, his leg would have made a clean contact with the guard's head without the guard being able to move an inch. Only on m v|le|mp|yr

"What about now?" He asked.

The other guard looked as though his eyes would pop out of his skull for a brief moment, even he couldn't react fast enough to see the attack all the way.

'Hehe, this one is definitely not ordinary… is he a spy or something? Commoners shouldn't have such talent.' The calm guard thought to himself as he chuckled.

"You sure are fast, kid, I'll give you that, but next time, don't make such a threatening move on others, you just might lose your life carelessly." The guard said with a soft smile and mocking eyes.

Aldritch looked down to find a short dagger, moments away from his crotch.

'This is embarrassing…' He thought to himself while retracting his leg. The guard also took back the dagger and sheathed it back on the side of his thigh.

"Very well, you've proven yourself to be good enough. I'd say, you are better than half the noble children already. Nevertheless, be careful and don't overdo it, if not, no one will be able to save you." The guard warned before letting them in.

As both of them strode into the academy grounds, the guard watched them keenly for a moment before his gaze softened. The other guard turned to the calm one as he asked, "hey, Hens, when did you become so good? You totally showed the brat."

"I've been practicing; you know? Don't want to remain a guard for the rest of my life." Hens said with a soft smile.

The other guard just stared at him with a serious expression for a short time, then turned his attention elsewhere.

Aldritch and Maggie made their way to the admission centre where they explained the fact that Aldritch wanted to enroll into the magic academy, though they didn't seem to be making any headway at all, the reason being that, "admission has already ended, don't you understand? There's no way you can enroll mid-session, it just doesn't work that way!

Even if I wanted to help you, your admission would never be approved by those at the top making the final decisions!" The lady they met in the office tried to explain.

'Damn it, and I was going to make her do it, I forgot about those in the key positions.' He thought to himself. Even then, there was still a way around it.

Using hypnosis, Aldritch thought of a way, "Go to your superiors and tell them that someone very promising has come to enroll."
