INFINITE PATHS: THE RAGING PHOENIX - Season 1 Episode 20

In the end, Rain had to wait for six months before going to school. He was one month away from becoming five, so it seemed that it was fine according to the adults that had adult bodies, unlike him.

“I didn’t make much progress in the human path in the last few months, but the courses should help with that,” Rain thought.

“Rein, let’s play,” Dana said while Rain was packing his things for school.

“I can’t now; I am going to school; if you behave, we can play horse later,” Rain explained while his little sister pulled his shirt.

Dana had grown a lot, but she still looked a bit chubby and round, probably because she disliked using her own legs to move. She was almost three now, so it was time for her brother and father to stop spoiling her.

At the same time, Kei was one year old, and she became a bit of a quiet child. She rarely makes a fuss, she sleeps a lot, and she doesn’t eat that much, either. Rain assumed that his youngest sister was going to become a quiet cute girl while Dana would become the cheerful and friendly one.

Putting that aside, one didn’t have to bring many things to school. Only some extra set of clothes for physical activities and a notebook and quill for the theory lessons. Rain almost let out a sigh of relief when he learned that there was no such thing as a uniform.

“Dad said that most of the course lessons end after just one month, and they repeat most of the things, so if I play my cards well, I can graduate from school before I turn six,” Rain thought once he finished his backpack. “It is just lessons for kids; it will be a walk in the park.”

Dana was pulling Rain’s cheeks, but she stopped when he got up. At the same time, Leiah approached to check Rain’s clothes.

“I don’t remember teaching you how to wear clothes by yourself, but good job,” Leiah said while she was carrying the sleeping Kei.”

“Okay, until later, Mom, Dana, Kai,” Rain said. “You should behave.”

“Me too?” Leiah asked while furrowing her eyebrows.

“Rain probably can find the school by himself, but I will take him there just in case, see you all later,” Roan said.

The men of the house left after waving their hands, and soon the mood while they crossed the streets. Rain could tell that his father had a few things to say.

“I wish that I didn’t have to do this, but I have to give you some tips, Rain,” Roan said. “Tips on how to act at school. Build your self-confidence and project an assertive and positive attitude while you are there. Stand tall, make eye contact, and have a relaxed but assertive posture. Stay alert and be aware of their surroundings.”

Those were some weird tips. They seemed like tips to avoid bullying… in any case, Rain was expecting that such a thing would happen. As if the actions of kids between the ages of five and ten would bother him. He died after being stabbed in the stomach, soon after being blamed for a crime he didn’t commit. He could take the meaningless words of brats that felt bothered that he had commoner’s blood.

The school wasn’t that far away from Rain’s house, only five minutes away. A group of wealthy noble children approached the grand entrance of the school with confidence and privilege. They were dressed in elegant and expensive clothing, showcasing their wealth and high social status. The boys wore fancy-tailored outfits with fancy patterns. In contrast, the girls wore beautiful gowns adorned with intricate details and jewelry.

As they walked towards the large stone building, the noble children displayed an air of entitlement, carrying themselves with pride. The entrance doors opened wide, revealing the inside of the school.

The school was a massive structure crafted from sturdy stones. Its imposing appearance exudes a sense of strength and endurance. The walls, made of thick and rough-hewn stones, showcase their ancient origins and bear the marks of time. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update

As Rain approached the main entrance, a large arched doorway beckoned him inside. The windows, tall and narrow, allow sunlight to filter through, casting a warm glow on the worn stone floors within. The walls carry subtle traces of inscriptions and symbols from long ago, whispering stories of the countless students who have passed through these halls.

The school was made up of several interconnected buildings, creating a complex maze of corridors and rooms. Stone paths meander through peaceful courtyards adorned with carefully tended gardens, providing quiet spaces for reflection and conversation. Towering spires, topped with pointed roofs, serve as distinctive landmarks, signifying the pursuit of knowledge within.

“Have fun, Rain,” Roan said when he noticed that it was time to go.

Did you have fun here?” Rain asked.

“Not one bit, but you can go and surpass your father in this aspect,” Roan smirked, and then he messed with Rain’s hair before leaving.

Once Roan left, Rain noticed that a lot more of the kids were looking at him while frowning. It seemed that they didn’t have the balls to do the same while his father was there. That only confirmed what he already knew.

Regardless, Rain entered the building and then looked for the military section of the place. The school was divided into eight sections, alongside history, the military section on the southern and left side of the school… since he decided to be a good boy, his grandparents were paying ten gold coins a month for him to be there, Rain will have to endure History and Etiquette lessons… At least he could go to the military and magic classes as well.
