God's Slave: Reincarnated Into an Academy of Heavenly Descendants

Chapter 52: Unrelenting



Quickly, Nolan moved along the woods, swiftly approaching the academy's location.

Soon enough, he was out of the woods and back onto the streets where the students could still be seen moving around, even though it was currently around 8 in the morning.

Right now, five days had passed since Nolan had entered the grave, and he was at least grateful for that.

If it had taken him years to wake up, it would have been devastating, and he might have felt like he no longer belonged to the academy.

Not that he ever truly felt that way in the first place.

[What will you do now?] The system suddenly asked as Nolan walked through the streets.

This time, he was pleasantly surprised to find no one looking at him.

They couldn't recognize him anymore at first glance; he truly looked nothing like the previous Nolan. Something he appreciated a bit.

"What do you mean?" Nolan asked in return.

[You heard what that fat bully said about Quinn. Do you still want to fight him now, or will you lay low as he suggested?] the system asked as Nolan's eyes flashed.

[I won't place my fate in the hands of whether someone is interested in killing me or not. I will find him, and his so-called cults, and settle the hatred. The hatred of three years!] Nolan mused to himself.

Right now, he might not be the one that Quinn had bullied, but the body Nolan possessed wanted nothing more than revenge.

And Nolan would enact it.

Somehow, he felt that the previous Nolan's soul had yet to leave this body, somehow.

And avenging all of his bullies would finally free him. If that's what Nolan needed to do to claim this body as his own, then he was more than willing to exact that vengeance.

He wouldn't say he was a good soul, but he also wouldn't turn a blind eye to the fact that a student was killed by his own classmates and thrown into a pit to rot away like nothing.

For that, even if Quinn never hunted him down, he would take the initiative and hunt them down, and everything would be resolved in one day!

[Also, why did you tell Wiro he would be safe?]

The system suddenly asked as Nolan frowned, remembering when he had told Wiro he would be safe before leaving.

"He's terrified of me..." Nolan answered.

[Of course, I'm thinking he might also be getting chased by some cults too,] the system replied, but Nolan only shook his head.

"He isn't terrified of some cults. He's terrified of me. When I entered his house, he attacked furiously, and I grabbed him before he could run. It was understandable if he was terrified."

"Yet, I could still sense fear in him even as we sat in the house."

"His chest was hammering in his heart, and he was afraid, probably afraid that now that I am strong, I would kill him."

"No one would know or care if I did, so it was understandable..." Nolan mused as he walked through the streets, quickly approaching the Greek Descent dorm building.

"I won't kill him, nor am I angry at him anymore. He has changed truly, and he showed me that over the past few days when I was at my lowest. "

"He could have abandoned me, and it made all sense to have abandoned me, but he didn't."

"That shows he's at least worth a second chance..." Nolan mused aloud.

[You have really forgiven him, after what he had done to you for years, just because of some help he showed for a few hours?] the system asked, yet Nolan nodded.

"If I don't give people who have clearly changed a second chance, and I keep bullying them or kill them because I'm now stronger than they are, then what makes me any different than the jerk they formerly were to me?"

"The cycle of hate would only continue over and over, and I find no meaning in that at all..."

"That's why I told him he'll be safe." Nolan explained as he arrived before the Greek Descent dorm and moved past the corner of the building.

Wanting to enter the dark alleyway, he stopped for a second, very slowly his eyes turned back and looked at the figure who was leaning against the wall of the building, looking at him with furrowed eyebrows.

Nolan simply scanned him up and down before continuing his way down the alleyway and entering his dorm room.

[It seems they're still after your back in the end...] the system said as Nolan grinned.

The person he had sighted was one of those people who had come to his dorm room a few days ago.

It showed to him as clear as day, that they still had their eyes on him and were still watching him.

It wasn't too surprising to Nolan; after all, he wished they still were, as that would save him the trouble of having to find them.

---

"So, he's still alive and didn't commit suicide, huh?"

The faint whisper came from the robed figure who reclined on the wall of the main building, his hollow eyes that burned with a ghostly flame looking at Nolan.

He was one of the Shadow Ones, a messenger of Quinn, who had been tagged here to watch if Nolan still lives.

Since he had disappeared for the last five days, all of them thought he was dead, still Quinn had left him with the position to keep watching over Nolan's dorm room.

They had thought he was just being paranoid, but who would have guessed that the young man didn't commit suicide like they all thought and was still alive.

Also looking bigger than he formerly was, but that was useless.

Anyone who crossed with them will only face death in the end.

It matters not who they were, at least not the trashest trash in the academy can hope to survive them.
