Picking up Girls With My System

"No idea, but whoever it is, is dumb! Roger is the king around this area!"

"That\'s right!"

Roger went down from the second floor, passing through the students who were whispering about him on the first floor, increasing his morale.

"You are right. Who is crazy enough to pick a fight with me?"

He went directly to the door where Arthur and Elena were. Roger yelled nasty words before even seeing Arthur, as he had a firm belief there was no way powerful people would go to those parts.

"Motherfucker! This is what you get from pissing me off. Your life inside this school will turn into a nightmare!"

Arthur looked at that fool of a man, and could not hold his laugher, making everyone from the restaurant to gaze at him. Elena, who was just beside him, found everything funny and laughed as well.

"This Roger is screwed."

"Well, well, well. Look what we have here, young Roger? Hum, Roger. I will surely remember this name during my classes."

"Oh? You are paralyzed of fear? That is funny!"

Roger went out of the restaurant cursing like a kid, but then he saw the token on Arthur\'s chest, and at that moment, he knew he fucked up!

It was the token which only the higher ups of the school had. A symbol of Arthur\'s power, a rank one Official Mage! That was a level far from Roger, and everyone else present in that restaurant.

The others who went out to look at who Arthur was after the maniac laugh also saw the token on his chest. Most of them felt pity for Roger.

"Ah, his life will be tough now. We should cut our ties with him." One student said to the other just beside him.

"You are right. Roger already has a poor reputation, and strength was the only thing that kept us at his side. But now? He is an ant when compared to that person. Who is he, anyway?"

Arthur gazed at Elena and said, "let\'s go. The room should be clear now."

She simply nodded and followed him close behind. All the male students who found Elena cute went she arrived at the school now had different thoughts.

"Is she his sister? Or maybe a childhood friend? Ah, don\'t care. I will treat that lady as a goddess!"

Elena was only walking close to Arthur, and yet it made everyone fear her, which was a good thing considering she was a new student who was susceptible to bad things.

They ordered only the best from the menu and feasted like a king and queen that night!

"Elena, focus on your training, and we may meet at the higher peaks in the future." Arthur said.

"I will, absolutely! I- I will not be a burden to you anymore!"

"Good, good."

The next morning started with Arthur waking up early to take care of his new garden. Not that he actually slept, but people could always watch, and someone who never sleeps would get a lot of attention, attention which would surely bring him trouble.

He first made a quick stop at the exchange center, where students could exchange the points they get from the school for items. What Arthur was looking for was precisely herbs and anything related to alchemy, his old passion, which was now ignited!

"Arthur? Uh, well, you don\'t have any points yet, but you can get all those things for free!"

"For free, really?"

"Free now… Any student can buy things without the points, but they would have to leave the school afterwards for missions, and that would only stop after getting all the points needed."

"Makes sense."

The attendant from the exchange shop already knew Arthur, as his fame had spread throughout the school quickly. Not only because of the incident with Roger, but because he was the youngest Official Mage of the school!

"If I take everything from this list. How many missions would I have to complete?"

"Well, it depends on the level of difficulty. I heard there is a difficult quest some other teachers got from the board, but they are still making the group. You should go talk with them."

"Will that quest pay for all of this?"

"What? Pay for all of this? Ha, it will not only pay, but you will get a lot of extra points!"

"You convinced me. Pack everything."

After Arthur got everything he needed from the exchange shop, he went looking for those teachers the attendant talked about.

Not that hard considering the fact the school had little Officials Mages, and those who took the jobs of teachers were even less, so Arthur quickly found the people he was looking for.

"Excuse me, I heard you are looking for help?"

A gorgeous woman was surprised after seeing Arthur, but before she could say anything, someone else said.

"Yes, we are, but this is only for Official Mages. So, return to your classroom, please."

The middle-aged man believed Arthur was a mere weak student when looking at his youthful face. An Official Mage? Arthur had the age to be the son of that man, so how could he have the same level of power?

"Return to my classroom? You might have mistaken me for your sixteen years old son who cannot even read yet. I am Arthur. Nice to meet you."

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?"

Arthur handed out his hand for the man to shake, and he was so angry that he grabbed it with all of his power, and then regretted right afterwards.

He unleashed all of his mana to make pressure on Arthur, but that was a dumb move!

Arthur did the same, but the amount of mana he had was higher than that of the middled-age man. Not only that, but the power of his body was way higher than well, so the hand-shake did not go as planned.

"Aaaaaggrrr. Let… me… go…"

The man could barely say those words, weak after having to endure the pressure of both the mana and the power of Arthur\'s body.

He was almost falling to the ground, but then Arthur released him.

"So, can I help?"

~~~~

After one day, the team was formed. Arthur, Bailey, Esmond and Michelle!

Bailey was the gorgeous woman with black-hair who did not have the chance to talk with Arthur, as Esmond went all out trying to teach him a lesson.

As for Michelle, she was also a new teacher who had taken the position six months prior to that, and many people knew little about her.

They had spent the day preparing for the mission, and Bailey also explained the details behind it.

"There is a mysterious icy cave. Our goal is to go there and get some stings from the scorpions who live there."

"What use does these stings have? Who wants it?"

"I don\'t know, but it is a trusted mission or else the school would not allow it to be on the board. So, we should not worry about that."

Arthur placed his hand on his chin, thinking about the mission as they left the school.
