Chapter 14: He’s A Weirdo
With a sharp pain stirred at the back of his head, Kylian blinked open his eyes slowly after a few hours had passed by. Finding himself lying down in a cozy bed, when he blinked his eyes a few times rapidly as if he was trying to clear his foggy vision, the looming back of a giant figure seated close to him on the bed flinched him hard.
When Kylian jolted to sit up, for him the first clear view of that figure was the enchanting big roses and thorn tattoos on his side neck.
Upon realizing it was Aiden, before he could speak a word Aiden stood up from the bed and walked towards a nearby couch. Taking his seat, he gallantly faced Kylian while narrowing his hazel orbs at him, before he stated in a husky voice, "So, you are finally awake. You had passed out for a few hours already, it's already past evening."
Flinched by his frigid tone, Kylian scanned the surroundings and found he was in a large room, with a cozy big bed at the corner of the room and a few bookshelves ahead of him tucked with countless books and ancient literary manuscripts. The room was very ordinary, but the luxurious furnishing made him awestruck when Kylian compared it to the small rented apartment he used to live in with his mother back there in his hometown.
"W-Where am I?" Kylian mumbled in a baffled tone, paying attention to every minor detail in the room. "Is this a...hotel?"
"This is our homeroom teacher's room in the academy arena, just similar to how every student is assigned their separate rooms after enrolling here." Aiden maintained his cold tone, while his eyes didn't stop glowering at Kylian. "I thought you would at least know this much if you were enrolling here, but it seems I must have overestimated your knowledge."
'Damn, what a rude mouth...' Pondering about Aiden, Kylian scowled back at him this time while he urged, "So, does that mean have you brought me here when I was unconscious?"
"The teacher wanted to bring you here, I simply went along with his decision." Aiden crossed his legs, sternly leaning his back against the cushion seat as he further added. "But...I waited a few hours for you to wake up is all because I do have a reason for it."
"Still, I should say thank you for bringing me here..." Kylian mumbled a bit reluctantly, as Aiden's tone was making him a little irked.
