The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 234 - - The Principal, The Limp and The Student [ Part 1 ]

It was me, Jennifer and Lazarus. We were walking through the Council Building's hallway. As we walked, Jennifer threw small words at Lazarus.

"How can you do such a thing, Lazarus? And that too in broad daylight in front of so many children."

She was met with silence from Lazarus. Though she didn't stop at that.

"Do you know how big of a punishment that would get you? You could get banned from the academic and even your job as a teacher could get blacklisted!"

Still Lazarus said nothing.

"What if he had gotten hurt? What if he died, Lazarus? Would you still stay silence at that?"

"No…" He finally opened his mouth, "I'd probably get a drink at a bar."

"Lazarus!"

"Shut up girl, you know nothing of what happened? Don't think of yourself so high and mighty… you may even be on his list."

Jennifer's brows furrowed, "What are you talking about?"

"Ask him?"

She turned to me, "What have you got cooking now?"

"Hey! Why are you trusting him all of a sudden?" I say, acting a bit hurt, "I didn't even touch the guy… sure, I kinda flattened one before, but nothing for him to get crazy about."

"So he just up and about tried to kill you? And you didn't even do anything… that's even more suspicious to me."

"Miss Jennifer, you do know what a crazy person is, right?" I say to her and before she could retaliate, Lazarus screamed at me.

"Fuck you, bastard. I'm going to find a way to kill you for sure!" Lazarus said, only to be threatened by multiple wind arrows aimed at him.

"You would do no such thing, Lazarus. If you intend to be this irrational, I will have no choice but to attack you."

Lazarus met her eye to eye, "Try it, but prepare to get hurt as well, girl."

I look at both of them, ready to fight each other and sigh.

'This people… we're in the fourth floor, can't they be a bit cautious. One shot from them and the result could injure multiple people if not throw them out the windows.'

"Whistle!"

Hearing my whistle, they turned to me as I pointed, "We're only 6 or 7 steps away from the office, mind calming down for a sec."

Lazarus snickered, "I don't need to hear those words from you."

While Jennifer extinguished the wind arrows and looked away from Lazarus.

I smile at this exchange. In the novel, they would have been both supporters of Arthur and in turn friends. But with this new outcome, even if one of them became a supporter, the other might not.

"Let's go." Jennifer said and walked ahead as we silently followed behind her.

Coming before the door, she knocked two times and called out, "Sir, it's Jennifer."

A brief moment later, an old voice spoke, "Come in."

She opened the door and got in as we stood before her.

The room was adequately nice, with berry red as the wall color and a black carpet on the floor. There was one desk with chairs, three shelves at the side and finally two couches to finish the room.

Behind the desk sat an old man. This was the very same man that had the final speech at the inauguration day. The old man was writing something on the papers with scrawny eyes as if it was difficult for him to see and mumbling something only he could hear.

He looked up and acted a bit surprised at the additional numbers, "Why are you all standing there? Come in, have a seat." He had a sweet way of speaking.

Lazarus and I sat in front of the desk, while Jennifer remained standing. Seeing her like that, the old man knew something must have gone wrong.

He first took a look at Lazarus's angry face before looking at me and giving a specific look.

"So… what has happened that I get to have your special attentions?"

"You need to kick this guy out!"

it was Lazarus who screamed out.

"How can you take such scum inside this place, you should have kicked him out right as soon as you seen him!"

The old man only heard him quietly before turning to Jennifer, "Will you fill me in on this?"

"Yes, sir." Jennifer nodded and said, "Right this morning, it was when I was working on the Class A math class. After a few minutes from the start, I get a disturbing call from Class F student Arthur."

At the mention of Arthur's name, I take a look at the old man but he didn't act any different. Either he genuinely didn't know him, which I know is false or he's very good at keeping a straight face.

"Barging into my class, he told me, 'Instructor Lazarus has challenged Henry into a duel.'."

"Huh! Is that true?" The old man acted surprised and asked Lazarus who remained quiet.

"So I immediately left the class and went with Arthur. And as he said, coming to the field, I saw Lazarus already trapping Henry into some string trap, covering him in thin wires."

"If that wasn't enough, I even saw him going for the kill as he placed the knife at his neck." Jennifer said with seriousness, "Sir, this is a huge violation of our academy's rules."

The old man heard all of this and took a long moment as he asked, "Who else saw this?"

"The whole class F and maybe some other students from higher ranks because of the noise."

"And did you accept his challenge?" The old man asked me.

"Nope" I shook my head, "The guy didn't even let me a weapon to defend myself, just went all crazy on me."

The old man looked further into Henry's face. The relaxed smile on his face disturbed him. The principal understood that Henry might have a hand in this matter.

'Hagh… Why is the year so troublesome for me?'

"Jennifer, can you leave us. I want to have a good talk with this two."

She nodded and left at that.

As soon as she left, the old man said to Lazarus, "Lazarus, apologize."

"What!" Lazarus said in shock, "What the fuck do you mean? I won't apologize to this bastard!"

"You will apologize and do you know why?" The old man said, "Because you're the one who caused this mess and you're also the one who got trapped because of it!"

"How can you be so selfish, Lazarus? Attacking a student like this." The old man laid back in his chair, "And about your challenge, he didn't even accept your challenge."

"Now do the honest thing, apologize and hug this out."

"Excuse me?" X2

"What do you mean, hug this out?" I ask, "You won't punish him for this?"

"No" The old man said in plain word, "I know what he did is stupid, but I don't believe that you also didn't do something for this to happen."

"Lazarus attacks me in broad daylight and you let this go without any repercussions."

"From what I know, someone else also did something in front of a much bigger crowd… but he got away scot free, didn't?" The old man smiled plainly, "And as reassurance, I will also vouch for him."

"So forget this matter."
