《The Immortal Mutant Teen》Chapter 22 - No Need To Be Afraid
Advertisement
In the morning, Rose wakes up and gets ready for the day. She picks out Acheron's clothes that he would wear for the day, makes breakfast, and prepares the documents that are needed for Acheron to look over.
She walks to the intercom on the wall and notifies Acheron that everything is ready for him. She takes pleasure in doing these things, for her, she believes it to be training on how to be a good wife.
She blushes every time this thought runs through her mind, which in turn brings a chuckle out of Acheron as he sees her covering her cheeks as she turns her body side to side, like a bashful maiden.
'To think this girl ranks 1st in the international list of assassins' Acheron chuckles at this thought, 'I wonder what the other assassins would think if they saw 'Dark Rose' like this'
"Good morning Rose, did you sleep well?" Acheron asks as he sits at the dining table.
"Of course, Acheron-sama! I dreamt of you!" she gives a big smile as she brings his food to the table.
"Hoh~, is that so? What was it?" he asks with the smile on his face growing bigger.
She starts to blush when her dream flashes through her mind, "It's a secret Acheron-sama, I don't need to tell you anything!" Her blushing only intensifying as she looks upon his teasing smile, 'No way I can tell Acheron-sama that I had a wet dream!!!'
Acheron proceeds to eat his breakfast, he doesn't need to eat, but he just eats because he loves the taste of food, especially homemade.
His body also doesn't need to sleep, it has been almost 500 hundred years since he had last closed his eyes for something other than meditation. At that time, his powers had a breakthrough and fell unconscious for 27 hours.

He reads the reports that Rose brought him, he smiles at what he sees.
"Interesting indeed," Acheron says "I wonder how they will react when they see me this morning" he laughs as he puts the files away.
"I'm glad everything is to your satisfaction Acheron-sama" Rose smiles with a slight blush on her face. 'Ahhh~ Acheron-sama is so handsome when he laughs!'
Standing up, he heads towards his room, "I'll be getting ready, start the car and wait for me, I don't want to be late on my second day of school"
"Yes, Acheron-sama" Rose puts the dishes away and goes to the car.
Acheron arrives in front of the school in a Bentley, no one notices his arrival, since everyone here has money, he is not the only one getting out of an expensive car.
Today, he is wearing an all-black Armani suit with a red tie, Acheron prefers to wear a suit anytime he leaves the house, something about him looking better in them.
Though he is not the first in class, hardly anyone is in yet, as usual, he goes to his seat and looks out the window towards the sky.
15 minutes later, Akeno, Sakura and Sora enter the classroom, they have noticed him already in his seat, though it seems nothing has changed, to them, there's an inexplicable pressure that exudes from him that wasn't there before, or at least, they had barely noticed before.
Sora decides to just glare at him for a second before seating in his at his desk. Seeing this, Akeno and Sakura give each other wry smiles before nodding their heads in confirmation. It appears they already have a game plan ready on how they would interact with Acheron.
Most of their classmates notice the girls head towards Acheron before stopping just a few feet away from him. They bow toward him before saying, "Good morning, Acheron-sama"

This sends their classmates into a frenzy 'Acheron-sama??'
'How can their goddesses bow their heads towards a man they just met?'
'What is his identity?'
They were shocked and confused at the scene, they didn't know how to feel about this situation.
Acheron heard their greeting but didn't turn around to look at them, "So, it seems now you know somethings, was it from the Saegusa Clan Head?... if I remember correctly there was an incident about 5 years ago… Ah, that's right, I had to ask Steve to drag Alpha back home before he spilled more secrets to strangers… he has always been such lightweight when it comes to alcohol…"
They continued to just stand there, not saying anything, they just waited for him to finish what he was saying. They couldn't help but notice how the air around Acheron had changed, it wasn't the carefree aura he had yesterday, but the aura of leader, no, it was of a ruler.
"You girls don't have to be so formal, right now I am just a student, not some monster you need to be scared of, you can lose the 'sama' and just Acheron is fine, I will continue to refer to you as 'Sakura' and 'Akeno' is that alright with you?" At this point, Acheron had turned to look at the girls, as always, with a smile on his face.
The girls felt a huge weight lift from their shoulders, they weren't sure if finding things about him didn't already offend him.
With a smile on their faces, "Good morning, Acheron"
In turn, Acheron said, "Good morning, Akeno, Good morning, Sakura"
The girls took their seats, as they were going to ask questions about him, he beat them to the punch "Hey Sakura, why is your brother looking at me like that?"
They turn to look at Sora, who is just staring daggers at Acheron.
With a helpless look on her face, she mentally admonished her brother for being such a battle maniac. "He is just mad because Father prohibited from challenging you to a fight, Father is worried about him getting himself killed"
Acheron's smile grew when he heard those words,
"Understandable, I am known for not holding back even amongst my family"
That got a chuckle out of him, he remembered 5 years ago he flew to Japan just to kick Alpha's ass into the ground, he never even got off the plane, he had Alpha dragged into the plane before beating him, it took Alpha 2 weeks to fully recover from that beating.

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.
