” Felix looked at her speechlessly.

”I know that your name is Felix Maxwell and the trendy news about you in your galaxy. ” The witch leaned closer and asked again with her eyes narrowed, ”But who are you? ”

”What do you mean? ”

”Why is my teacher caring so much about you? ” The witch tilted her head in confusion and said, ”I doubt it got to do with the news about you. ”

’Hmm, it seems like she doesn ’t know the reason why I am here. ’ Felix mused, ’Might as well tease her a bit. ’

”I have been chosen as one of the cross-galactical transfer student programs. ” Felix said with a serious tone.

”Transfer student program? ” The witch arched her eyebrows and said, ”I didn ’t know we had that for our elementary school. ”

”Elementary school? ” Felix smiled while shaking his head.
”I am transferring to the Royal Acadamy. ”

The moment his words resounded in the carriage, all of the witch ’s eyes widened in bewilderment at the start then to amusement.

A faint smile was finally cracked on her face, making Felix sigh in dejection at how pretty she appeared with an expression like that.
’How am I supposed to survive in the Academy when every witch is prettier than the last one? This is going to be a tough three years to live. ’

”Good joke. ” The witch said, smiling mildly.

”I am not joking though. ” Felix asserted with an honest tone.

”Yes, you are. ”

”No, I am not. ”

”You can drop it now. ”

”Seriously, I am really transferring to the Royal Academy. ”

Seeing that he wasn ’t going to budge from his joke, the witch didn ’t want to continue bickering with him since they were about to arrive at their destination.

Hence, she dropped the subject with a simple mocking request, ”Let ’s meet at the Academy then. ”

”Sure. ” Felix extended his wrist forward and said casually, ”Let ’s exchange our IDs. ”

The witch glanced at his honest expression then at his extended wrist.
She did so a couple of times until she laughed a little and touched his AP bracelet.

”I am Lara. ” The witch said with a charming smile, ”Your commitment to a joke is quite astonishing. ”

”Thank you? ” Felix shrugged his shoulders, not wanting to enter the same subject.

He has already gotten her info and that was a win for him since he needed someone on the campus to introduce him to how things were run.

”Follow me, we are already quite late. ” Lara opened up the carriage door and went out first.

Felix jumped down on the street that was completely paved with star-like blocks.

While Lara was walking to a guarded gate of a towering grey castle that appeared like it came straight out of a fantasy book, Felix was checking the city that was left behind.

It turned out, the castle was built at the highest point of the city, making Felix feel like he was standing on a mountain.

Nine slim round towers were surrounding the castle.
They reached twice the height of the walls and were connected by lower, narrow walls made of dark grey stone.

Stylish windows were scattered thinly around the walls in seemingly perfect symmetry.

Well-kept gardens with fragrant flowers, gorgeous trees, and many bushes decorate the outside of the castle.

This castle had clearly stood the test of time and its inhabitants were intended on making sure it stays that way for ages to come.

’This is a nice castle though. ’ Felix praised sincerely.

Based on some information Felix gathered about witches, he understood that castles like those were given to only Sage Potioners who could concoct rank 5 potions.

’Elder, are you in the castle? ’ Felix asked while entering the gate after Lara.

’No, a clone of mine is here. ’ Lady Sphinx said casually while still reading the same book.

’I see. ’

Felix already expected that he would be meeting Lady Sphinx ’s clone since there was honestly no point for her to meet him with her real body.

Her perfect copy ability reached a point when Felix wouldn ’t even realize that he was dealing with a clone.

After walking through the castle ’s long corridor that had many artistic paintings hang on its walls, Lara and Felix finally reached a red gate that was left unguarded.

Lara stepped forth and knocked twice on the gate before pushing it slowly.

She stuck her tail ’s eye first and said from behind the door, ”I have brought him, teacher. ”

”Come in. ”

Lara opened the gate widely after hearing her teacher ’s tranquil voice.

The moment the gate was open, Felix raised an eyebrow in surprise after seeing two mature gorgeous witches, drinking tea at a small table meant to host only four.

”Lara, you can go now. ” The gorgeous witch on the left side smiled faintly while gesturing with her hand for Felix to take a seat with them.
”Little thief, don ’t stand there. ”

Upon looking at her golden eyes and the way she carried herself, Felix instantly realized that Lady Sphinx was the one talking to him!

But she was a witch! At least she appeared 100% like one!

”I will get going. ” Lara bowed her head to the two witches and glanced at Felix one last time before closing the door behind her.

’Thief? Was he sent here to be punished for stealing something important to the teacher and her friend? ’ Lara mused while walking away, ’Meet me at the Acadamy? As expected, he was full of crap. ’

After Lara exited the castle, the conversation carried inside the room was entirely different than her expectations.
