Amon, The Legendary Overlord

Chapter 322: Chapter 322: Transitions and Reflections



After an intense session of classes, the students began to exit the academic environment in an organized manner. The classroom, often stirred by debates and discussions, now echoed with the sound of chairs being dragged and whispered conversations. This particular class, known for its rigorous academic credit load, gathered over 30 students eager for knowledge.

Meanwhile, Amon, one of the students, meticulously arranged his materials, preparing to leave the room. Lara, his classmate, stood beside him, gracefully resting her face on her right hand, her eyes fixed on Amon with a thoughtful expression.

"So, Amon, what are your plans now?" asked Lara, her voice laden with genuine curiosity and a hint of playfulness.

Having finished packing up, Amon turned to her. His response was quick, almost reflexive, "I'm leaving this basement."

With a smile that lit up her face and a hint of mischief in her voice, Lara inquired, "Heading to meet your girlfriend?"

Lara's smile, enriched by the dimples forming on her cheeks, was enchanting. It was a smile that, even for someone like Amon, made the heart beat a little faster. However, he remained composed, though visibly affected by her beauty.

Amon nodded in agreement, not denying, "You guessed it." And he added, "See you later, Lara."

"Of course, see you, Amon~" Lara replied, her melodious voice humming softly as they said goodbye.

As he slid his hands into his pockets while leaving the elevator, Amon's presence began to capture curious glances. It wasn't long ago that he was transferred to a special class; a detail that still resonated vividly in the students' memories. Seeing him, the students cast furtive glances and discreet whispers.

"Amon?"

Among the crowd of faces, Ariel stood out, a charming figure with her bright golden eyes and snow-colored hair. Petite, less than 160 cm tall, she shone like a beacon in the sea of students, also notable for the way her clothes accentuated her delicate stature.

Approaching Amon, Ariel's steps quickened, her flowing garments keeping pace. The light strap top danced to the rhythm of her movements, as if in sync with her airy essence.

Amon, noticing her approach, walked to meet her. As he saw her coming quickly, he involuntarily thought of the twin mountains where he lived. They were beautiful mountains, especially when covered in snow...

"Good afternoon, Ariel," he greeted her, with a small smile as he reached her. "Are your classes over for today?"

"Yes, they're over," she replied, lighting up the space with a smile that mixed joy and a playful touch.

"That's great," Amon replied, extending his hand to affectionately stroke her hair.

Ariel, however, brushed his hand away playfully, puffing her cheeks. "Stop that, Amon. I may be small, but I'm not a child anymore, got it?"

Amon responded with a neutral "Ohh...", showing neither surprise nor disappointment. Quickly changing the subject, he asked, "Are you busy now?"

"Not much. I was heading to the dormitory," Ariel said. "Other than that, my day is free."

"Excellent. So, shall we take a stroll together until we find a restaurant and wait for the girls?" Amon asked.

"That's fine by me." She smiled slightly: "By the way, how is it going to the special class? Is it much different from the regular class?"

"Mhm..." Amon thought for a second before answering: "Actually, I feel it's the same. Well, not entirely, after all, the weaker students are at the same Rank as me and there are several at Star Rank. But other than that, I don't feel anything different."

"Fufufu, that's precisely because you are special, that's why you feel this way~" Ariel laughed in a relaxed and slightly mischievous manner.

"Give an example." Amon looked into her eyes.

"In summary." She said: "If it were someone else, they would feel enormous pressure and would not be able to act normally."

"Really?" Amon didn't seem to understand her point.

"Well, think with me." She explained: "If a student who is considered at a high level compared to others is transferred to a more advanced area where the weakest in power are at his level, but there are also several above him... Wouldn't that make you nervous? Anxious, scared, etc.?"

Amon frowned. He could understand where she was coming from, but he couldn't see himself feeling that way.

At most, he felt curious. However, he didn't feel any pressure or nervousness. It was like a normal transaction.

"Fufu. It seems you still can't think that way even after hearing this." Ariel laughed again with her hand in front of her mouth, acting like one of those high-class women who like to act arrogantly and ostentatiously: "Actually, I should have known this. After all, from the beginning, you never seemed to feel like that, even when we first arrived at this university."

It was a reality and, just like when he arrived, there were several students who far surpassed him. However, in a short time, he made most of them 'eat dust'. Maybe, in Amon's mind, something like pressure from being at a lower rank than someone doesn't exist. Ariel related that, with his goal in mind to become an Overlord, there was no sense in making silly comparisons with other people.

Maybe, just maybe, he didn't even care if others felt superior to him or even stood out more. In the end, it was possible that, in Amon's view, reaching his goal was much more important than that, and he intentionally ignored any form of obstacle that arose in his path...

The more she thought this way, the more Ariel felt she was right.

"Ah, so nothing caught your attention that made you at least a little dazzled?" Ariel changed the subject.

"Let's say yes." Amon replied: "The classes are more in-depth, and the teachers are more intellectual. Their understanding is beyond my knowledge, which made me interested to a certain extent.

Besides, I think friendly competition against them is more fruitful for me, after all, although I've only had one duel with one of them once and it was under restrictions, it was somewhat interesting." He smiled.

"Oh? Tell me more!" Ariel got interested.

"Well, that's it..."

For the next few minutes, he recounted what happened since he arrived in the special class, about how he learned variants of a spell and had a duel where he could only use that spell which he and his opponent managed to understand.
