Picking up Girls With My System

Within days, Arthur met two people with interrogation marks above their heads. First, it was that old woman from the clothing store, and now the new teacher.

It took Arthur a few seconds to recover from the shock, but once he did, he smiled brightly and said, “welcome. Are you here to apply for a teacher’s position?”

“Yes. I’m Matilda. Nice to meet you, Mr. President.”

She bowed and showed proper respect to Arthur. A good first-impression, although he was still afraid of her high level.

What if she had bad intentions?

“I have no choice but to accept her. Now that she is here, she won’t take a no for an answer, and I can’t make someone as strong as her angry right now.” Arthur thought.

“So, Matilda. I’m Arthur, the president of this school. What do you say about a test tomorrow, early in the morning?”

“What kind of test?” Matilda said.

“You’ll teach a class, and one of the current teachers will watch you to see how well you handle the class. There is an office on the upper floor of the mansion you can use. It will be your new home.”

“Come, I’ll show you the place.” Wisa said.

The last floor of the mansion was where all the offices were. It had over 10 offices for the possible new teachers. Matilda would take a room there, just like Jane, Wisa, and Harmony.

“Now that I think of, most of the teachers are woman. Should I hire a male teacher so people don’t think I only want women teachers?”

That was a point Arthur had to consider. Anyway, the classes were over, and as Matilda was roaming around the school, it was the best if Arthur continued on his president identity.

“Whoa, is that Mr. Arthur? He is more handsome than the rumors.” One of the new students said.

It was the first time they saw the mysterious president of the academy. The dark robe Arthur wore made him even more mysterious.

Matilda explored the school with Wisa. Arthur was always close to them, just in case something happened.

She was a beautiful woman, that is. Matilda had a blue hair, the same color as the deep ocean. A white, pale skin, blue eyes, and perfect facial features and body. She looked like someone out of a painting because of how perfect Matilda was.

Still, she was mysterious, and on an unknown level, possibly dangerous. Arthur walked alongside her and Wisa, showcasing the school.

“What is this place?” Matilda said.

The place she was talking about was the recreation area, who was almost finished. Arthur built a place for students to relax, sitting on comfy chairs and couches. A place to read, to enjoy the hot-water pools, or play table tennis.

“This is awesome. I cannot wait for this to be finished so I can spend hours in the hot-water pools.” Matilda said.

Matilda talked about lots of stuff, and based on the looks of it, she was a decent person. Arthur wouldn’t stop monitoring her, though.

“I need to get stronger.”

Now that someone way stronger than him was around, it pushed Arthur even further to achieve great strength.

The tour around the school was getting boring, so Arthur left and let Wisa finished it.

There was someone that Arthur had not seen in a while, and that was Kai. He had promised him to spar 3 times a week, but now, with his goal of learning magic, that would be hard.

“Kai, I knew you would be here.”

Kai was in the same spot they always used to train, and different from before, he had two water wings behind his back, and the water spear seemed more powerful than before.

“Master.” Kai bowed.

“I can see you made quite the progress.”

“I did, yes. All thanks to your guidance.”

“Hey, Kai. We need to talk.”

Arthur explained to him his new identity, the reason behind it, and asked him to keep that as a secret.

“Don’t worry, master. I rather die than betray you.”

“I know. Well, sparring 3 times a week will be hard, at least for now. But I can promise you at least one spar a week. Is that all right with you?”

“Of course. One spar with master is already a blessing.”

“Okay. I’ll let you train in peace.”

Maybe it was Arthur’s imagination, but since Kai got his wyvern bloodline, he seemed more respectful to Arthur. He was already been respectful before, but now it was on a different level.

“I told you. She was here.” A student said.

Arthur was returning to the school, but he stopped when he heard a conversation. He saw two students talking to each other. One man and one woman.

Based on what they were saying, another student was supposed to be in that area, yet it was gone. They were scared the student was missing.

“Is something wrong?”

The two students who were arguing turned around and saw Arthur, their only hope.

“Mr. President, please help us.”

“Yes, Mr. President, please. Our friend was here with us a few minutes ago, but now she’s gone.”

“Calm down. How does she look and what is her name?”

“She’s Lucy. Blond hair, and pretty. Please, find her.”

There was no way Arthur could know if the situation was a joke, or if it was serious. But he had to check no matter what.

Imagine if a student was truly missing, and he decided to not look for it out of laziness or assuming it was a prank. That would ruin his reputation, and the reputation of Odemore.

“Sully, fly around the island and look for a pretty lady with blond hair.”

“Understood. What is the situation?”

“Two students are saying she is missing.”

“I see.”

Sully was usually someone that experimented with Arthur and made fun of him, yet was respectful now, just like Kai. That seemed different.

“What’s the change?”

Arthur could not think about that, as he dashed towards the deeps of the island, looking for Lucy, a missing student.
