An: Please tell me if you enjoyed. If the majority dislikes the chapter or finds it confusing i will redo it.

The chapters will be update once every 24 or 25 hours unless I have exams.

(It may say every 2 days but that's because I update around 11pm or 1am so I update every 24 or 25 hours)

The chapters will usually be longer in the weekend, depending if I'm busy then or not.

This chapter is more character development.

I will improve progress pace of story soon, when I finish some exams

"When speaking out loud"

[When speaking in his head]

----------------

Fenix:"Class dismissed. Next class will be our first mecha piloting class with professor Sinnil.

He was busy last week so was unable to do the class, now he is free he should have added mecha piloting class on your time table."

With this said, many pupils started to rummage through their pockets, looking for a little cube.

They held their thumb on the centre of the blue cube, where there's a blue glowing circle.

The blue circles flashed green and a light blue hologram showing their information, inventory, contacts and timetable appeared.

Fenix continued: "Consider yourself lucky, It will be replacing one of your physical training classes. Next lesson come to the mecha piloting class on the first floor, trust me, you won't miss it." He said.

The students started conversing as they walked out their classrooms and to the cafeteria or wherever.

Jessica, the dark Elven, dual elemental girl has gotten really close to James, Drexel and Aaron. She was nearly their age, she was 11 years old, most of the class were 12-15 years of age so she felt pretty left out before, but now she's with the trio, she was more comfortable around them than she was with any girls.

Well unless the occasional time Fenix came to talk to them...

The dark Elven girl is beautiful, as you would expect from an elf, with long white hair and dark greyish skin that gave out an alluring, mysterious aura. Her eyes were azure red, cold and calculating.

To anyone else other than the trio she was cold and harsh, well except for Fenix, she wouldn't ignore Fenix for other reasons...(fear)

Jessica:"Hi Aaron, Drexel, James, I can't believe Fenix let Professor Sinnil cancel on of his 'Hell sessions'! How lucky!" Many of the boys in the class gave jealous glances at Drexel and the others, looking at her act girly and cute in front of them...

Class (boys and girls):[Pfff, never liked her anyway, definitely a power digger, wanting to get in Fenixes protection by making a connection with Drexel, *sigh*, if only she talked to me like that---no! What am I saying... Totally don't like her anymore...]

Nobody would dare ask her to be with them anymore, since she was with the trio. Their group is only second to Fenix in the hierarchy of the class. The trio was very popular as well, they were all good looking and don't abuse their power, especially with Jessica now, probably one of the only dark elves out of the the 10s of thousands of students in the Academy.

Jessica was popular because everyone wants a exotic and rare dark elf to be their friend, the girls even more than the boys since she was a rare variant of an elf, the dark elves lived deep in their forest and are the Elven empires elite assassins, nobody messes with them, some noble girls wanted connections with her, while others just wanted to show her off.

James was popular because of his intelligence and extreme good looks; sandy blonde hair and blue eyes. He was also a cold 'prince' sort of character, even if he is still very young, girls couldn't stop giggling and talking about him and how good looking he is.

Drexel was popular because he is a friendly sort of character, although he is only 9, which is 6 years younger than the oldest in the class room, he has a impressive build for his age, due to his extreme training from a young age, this coupled with chiseled face and brown hair makes him look pretty good looking, even with his average face.

James is thought as the class 'mascot'. Even the guys in the class can't help but ruffle his hair as they walk passed.

He has an adorable face with slightly chubby cheeks but well toned body. He is slightly tanned with black hair and green, emerald eyes. Girls would do anything for his warm gaze. With his good humour and natural friendliness, even if he was a player, everyone couldn't help but like his character.

James: "Ah yeah! No more evil training today, can't wait to see Fenix being taught, I knew that he can't know everything!"

Drexel:"Speaking of Fenix, do any of you know where he goes when he's not in duty for lunch? Does anyone even know what room his door number has?"

Aaron:"No, he is probably torturing some poor soul out their, God bless them... Why?" Aaron asked, curious to know why he wants to know about Fenix so much.

Drexel:"Well, we never really got to thank him for anything. I mean we're growing really powerful in an exponential rate, this level could have took months to achieve! I kind of feel ungrateful, you know? Plus, even though I always sense a dark fiery aura around him, theirs always a lonely gaze somewhere in his eyes."

Drexel was on the mark, Fenix always uses his aura to keep everyone away from him, at one point he just got tired of death and revenge. That's why he just accepted it and tried not getting close to anyone around him, even in his orphanage he only talked to his fellow 'rulers' probably once a month. The other three talked to each other all the time but Fenix was always busy training, he would only answer back with a nod or a word anyway. Sometimes he would greet them by tripping them up, laughing, then walking away, but they just accepted his sadistic nature.

(If only they knew what he'd truly do for amusement.)

But all this left him lonely. Every time he is reincarnated, his parents or anyone, like siblings, burn to ash. It's sad, but just the way it happens...

Over the years Fenix came to also accept the loneliness, but it never really all went away.

He started talking to himself, and always lost concentration and changed subjects easily.

He tried to concentrate on training and forgot why he wanted to reincarnate anyway.

He wanted a family; friends, wife and kids.

After all, it's lonely at the top. The others seven fear him and seclude him, thinking he is dangerous.

He soon realised that it was nearly impossible for him to have kids.

His child would start to burn, if it's body couldn't handle the power, sometimes even in the womb, with his wife.

His friends were only after his power. They fought each other.

Many times, his true friends would die.

Now all he can think about is training and improving his knowledge to satisfy his boredom,

His true Pheonix form is boring, too perfect.

James:"I wouldn't get close to him, if I was you, he is too mysterious and I feel like if you get close to him you'll get burnt, trust me, I'm best when it comes to measuring character here, and that kid there, is dangerous." James, like Aaron, was from a noble house. Drexel although wasn't a noble, had a higher status than them, after all his grandfather is an Rank S, an immortal Saint! James sudden low and serious voice surprised them, a total opposite from his usual calm and happy tone.

Aaron: "I feel that too, I appreciate him teaching us, but even HE is warning us not to go near him, that aura is too intense."

Jessica:"I feel sorry for the professor, I heard he came from an orphanage, must have been pretty lonely there." Jessica felt more sorry for Fenix, after all she is older (she's 11) and thinks of him as a 'mature' and 'scary' kid. She must have overheard one of the professors speaking about him, especially after his students duel and win, he became a popular topic.

Aaron's and James gazes softened when they heard he came from an orphanage. Everyone knows how orphans are treated, especially in the human empire, where magic and status means everything. Orphans, who have nothing are thought of as dirt by some nobles. Aaron and James though we're taught by two different but powerful clans under the emperor. They already are at the peak of power, they believe in righteousness and equality more than power.

From a young age, they were taught to either speak warmly to people they think are worthy and are comfortable with (that's why is Aaron is so cold to his classmates) or in James case be kind and warm to everyone. Either way they had to think of everyone equally. Only a few nobles were taught to think like this, they became the best of Knights.

Aaron: "I guess we could go find him now. Let's try to become friends, he is the same age as us after all."

James:"Yeah, must be hard with a new environment, especially for teachers, even for him."

[I feel bad now, he must be pretty lonely. It must be pretty hard, teaching people that despise you...]

The Pheonix house mainly consisted talented individuals, who were trained from a young age with the best facilities; nobles. It trained the newest generation of mecha Knights! The most elite force of any empire. The strongest use of magic and technology, even Magic nukes can compare to them! The mecha magicians are only capable of utilising them and directing their mana in the rights circuits to move each part of their body. Experts can even create mecha in a second and let it materialise around them.

Drexel: "Oh Jessica, it's better if you don't tell anyone that he is an orphan, people will start mocking him now matter how scary he is." Jessica nods, in her eyes Drexel and the others were better than she thought.

Elves naturally love nature, they don't care about hierarchy, she doesn't understand why humans are so greedy and care about rankings.

Drexel wasn't wrong about people disrespecting Fenix if they found him to be an orphan, how can orphan become a teacher? Even the professors would mock him, but they know better.

All formidable experts know of the infamous Roseberry orphanage, they have a higher rank in the empire than any clan, Kings bow down to even staff and teachers that come from there. The Roseberry orphanage creates experts like Sinnil and many more for centuries, some of these are in secluded training or even teach in the orphanage. This makes many of the staff there A rank or above. All experts know this.

Fenix is from the main orphanage and was personally raise by the founders of the orphanage. He, unlike the rest of the kids, graduated from the school when he was 7 and started going to public and summer school. He was forced to goto summer school since his aunt and granny knew all he did was either eat, sleep or train all day.

The summer school was taught by Sinnil who the students thought was just a normal teacher. Sinnil would sometimes also teach in the orphanage in the summer but he wanted to help the public as well.

If anyone knew Fenixes true back ground and they angered him, they would undoubtedly, shit themselves!

----------------------

Drexel turned to Aaron and asked: "Is this really where he lives?"

They were currently standing in front of an old unused door, it was secluded from the rest of the rooms in the huge dormitory, since it is at the end of the corridor.

Aaron nods. As Drexel goes to knock, he is intercepted by James who just slams the door open.

--------------

*Bang!*

Fenix slowly opens his eyes, he was currently sleeping on his desk, like he usually does after he eats lunch, since their break is an hour long.

Underneath and around him were stacks of papers and book about mecha, Ki, magic or monsters, there were holograms floating around him, with sources of information from the net and one hologram had a TV program running about monsters.

Fenix:"Who dares awaken me from my slumber!" [That reminds me of when I was reincarnated a dragon, good times, you just wait for an expedition of powerful warriors to come kill you but most of the time you sleep.]

A gust of wind comes with his deep powerful magically enforced voice, which makes James who still has on leg up and was looking at Fenix, who didn't even bother look at them, to fall on his ass.

Soon, two orbs of golden spheres stare expectantly towards the group.

Fenix:"What do you want? Training?"

Fenix gave a dark smile which gave a shiver down each of their spines.

----------------

Sorry with how slowly its progressing, I don't want the good stuff to come out half assed since I'm doing my exams.

I am trying to fix with how slowly it is progressing by making daily chapters.

This chapter was more for character development.

Thanks for reading!

I will proofread later, I made an awful lot of mistakes now I actually re read it. But for now I shall sleep.
