The Golden Throne

Then, he saw Amelia enter the class. She looked at the commotion near Liu Feng\'s place, and her eyes widened. Her mouth opened with shock, and Liu Feng\'s mouth widened to a smile. He got up instinctively.

Amelia ran forward, like the wind. She rushed forward to Liu Feng and hugged him tightly. Liu Feng reciprocated the hug and they felt each other\'s warmth. Amelia sobbed, "I thought you died. How would I be able to live with myself if you died? You idiot. You idiot."

"It\'s okay, I am fine, aren\'t I? I am fine now. Just relax. Look, everyone can see you crying."

Everyone started at Liu Feng, and he felt cold stares at him. If looks could kill, then Liu Feng would definitely be dead right now. Surely, no one understood why Amelia was crying though. They looked on curiously. Particularly, the boy who was about to fight with Liu Feng was furious, and he broke the glass in his hands in frustration.

Liu Feng sighed. How could he control this? Amelia was truly the freshmen\'s Queen. He was obviously going to be the enemy of all the boys in the school.

"It\'s alright. I have the girl, after all. Nothing\'s going to beat that.", he thought to himself, thoroughly satisfied.

The professor coughed. "This is a classroom. Please behave. Take a seat. We will begin the class. Now, it appears that we have a new student joining us. Who are you? Why was I not informed about your arrival?", the professor asked Liu Feng.

"I am an old student. I was lost in the magical forest all this time, and I was only able to come out now.", Liu Feng responded swiftly. 

"You were lost in the magical forest? That is... surprising. I did not know that a first year would be able to survive in the magical forest on his own.", the professor asked Liu Feng.

"Well, it was purely my luck, Professor. I had the princess here save my life in the middle, and that is why I was able to survive.", Liu Feng snickered. Amelia, who was sitting next to him, turned ugly immediately. Of course, she did not save him. Quite the contrary in fact.

"Alright. I see that a student has returned after a month of absence. I will give you some supplementary material so that you can catch up. For now, we will just learn about some magical circles and their utilization in our day to day life."

Amelia sat next to Liu Feng now and leaned on him. She whispered to him, "What happened there? Why did it take you so long to come back?"

"I will tell you all the details when the class is over. Or else, the professor will scold both of us."

The professor looked at Liu Feng and Amelia once and then continued the class.

"Okay, this is the magic circle that is used for heating. It absorbs the mana from the mana stone and converts it into heat. You have to have these strokes in this particular order for the circle to work. You must also circulate mana in a particular way for it to work."

Liu Feng was yawning inside. He already understood the concept of the magic circles when he was five. He used that understanding to derive the usage of magic circles in all fields of life. That was the reason why Dilheim was such a huge city and so developed in such a small amount of time.

The class took a lot of time, and when the bell finally rang, Liu Feng was startled awake from his half-asleep state. The professor glared at Liu Feng with a sort of disgust. It was obvious that Liu Feng did not give the best of first impressions. Liu Feng couldn\'t care less though. He did not need any of this, and was probably the second most powerful on the campus, after Arad. He had more important things to worry about.

He looked at Amelia and nodded to her. "Let\'s talk. How about somewhere more... Private?".

Amelia agreed, and they moved to a more secluded place of the campus, near the park.

"What the hell happened out there? You took so long to come back. I thought you died, of not for Arad\'s message. What were you thinking? And those demons, that is an entire army that can come after us!", she said, her tone was that of shock and dread.

"That\'s a lot of questions, and you have every right to ask them all. The demons were taken care of, but there are many, many more that can come. And, I was just fortunate to survive the attack. None of us are prepared to go against the demons right now. This is going to be a downhill battle.. well I am just ranting here.", Liu Feng shook his head.

"Well then, what are we going to do? I was powerless before the demons.", Amelia said, lowering her head.

"Now Amelia, I have to ask you, how did your father react when you told him about the demons?"

"He freaked out. He was all like, you died, and you will never return because demons are way too powerful. I was mad at him because of all the negativity so I stopped talking to him."

"Well, it is time to talk to him. Call him. Tell him that he has to come to the campus. I am calling my father here as well. The kings have to know of an important matter."

"You just came here. Why are you already focusing on the people who are not here? Come, we have to go to the self-defence class. My teacher is very strict."

"What weapon did you take?"

"Me? I took the halberd."

"Oh! That? I think it\'s just like a spear."

"Don\'t say that in front of my teacher. He will definitely murder you."

Liu Feng nodded, and they went to the self-defence class. Liu Feng knew that he had to practise the greatsword more, so he went to that class. Long Che was sitting there sipping some wine. He saw Liu Feng come in and was pleasantly surprised.
