The Undying Mecha Emperor-Chapter 70 Roast Pork
"Uhh. Who exactly are "they"?" I asked her curiously.
"Those two are the Principal and Vice Principal of the National Mecha Pilot Academy. Bruce Pang and Jeanette Wen." Grand Elder Shella said quietly as though she was afraid of disturbing the fight that was going on in the distance.
"Wen? The current President's clan?" I asked her quietly.
Grand Elder Shella merely nodded her head in response. She was focusing all of her attention on the fight.
It was a spectacular fight, and it was so even in my untrained eye which missed probably 99% of the intricacies and significance of their moves.
For a few moments, both Grand Elder Shella and I watched the fight quietly grow in intensity and ferocity until finally… BAM!
A middle aged man literally flew out of the gazebo.
My eyes followed him and caught sight of a handsome smiling face just a split second before he splashed into the lake.
And then my eyes swivelled back to the top of the gazebo where the woman was.
Only to find that she was no longer there, but standing in front of me.
"Why hello! Hello! What do we have here? Shella, it's really good to see you again!" An exquisitely beautiful middle aged woman in white staff uniform beamed at Grand Elder Shella who was bowing deeply in greeting. There was not a single drop of sweat on her face or anywhere I could see even after the ridiculously high speed fight she had with the Principal.
"Vice Principal Wen. Your disciple Shella greets you."
"At ease. How is your movement technique training? Have you mastered the fifth stage yet?" Vice Principal Jeanette Wen asked her warmly.
"Yes, Vice Principal Wen. I have mastered the fifth and the sixth stage, and I am currently halfway through the seventh stage." Grand Elder Shella replied with a tinge of pride in her voice.
"Hohoho. I definitely need to see it for myself later." Jeanette Wen's eyes gleamed in sincere excitement. "But for now, who do we have here?"
Jeanette Wen scrutinized me curiously with a smile.
"Let me guess, you must be a record holder from today's entrance test. And for you to be here at this time, you must have just finished your RPL test. Could it be…?" Jeanette Wen raised a questioning eyebrow at Grand Elder Shella.
But before Grand Elder Shella could say anything, Jeanette Wen immediately shook her head and said, "No, let me figure it out by myself. What's your name, young man?" ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛o𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂
"Uhhh. My name is Justin. And the Principal still hasn't surfaced, by the way. Do we need to rescue him or something?" I couldn't help but blurt out the one thing that was bugging me at that moment.
Jeanette Wen blinked at me in surprise and then laughed out loud hilariously as though she had just heard the funniest joke in the world.
Well, maybe even the funniest joke in the universe, because even after five seconds, she was still laughing her head off.
"Oh dear! I haven't laughed like that for so long! Thank you dear for such a treat." Jeanette Wen finally said to me after she vented her bellyful of laughter.
"Would you believe it? I haven't, in my entire life, placed the idea of "rescue" and "Bruce Pang" as its object together before! Rescue Bruce Pang from the lake! Ha! I won't let him hear the end of this." Jeanette Wen was still chuckling evilly as she beckoned Grand Elder Shella and me to follow her.
We made our way to the lakeside where Jeanette Wen promptly shouted in a loud voice. "HEY BRUCE! DO YOU NEED TO BE RESCUED FROM DROWNING IN THE LAKE?"
A few seconds later, bubbles appeared on the surface of the calm lake.
Jeanette Wen chuckled. "That was probably him cursing me for being a naggy old hag."
I smiled and nodded. "Good to know that he's still alive." 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚
Jeanette Wen looked at me incredulously and immediately burst out laughing once more!
"Oh my goodness! You're such an adorable young man! Good! Very good! One hundred credits for you!" Jeanette Wen said after laughing her head off once more.
Splash!
The middle aged man suddenly shot out of the lake and somersaulted his way next to us, causing us to be inundated with countless water droplets.
"One hundred credits deducted for thinking that I needed rescuing from a mere fall into the lake!" He announced loudly and then glared at me.
"One hundred credits awarded for being such a handsome young man!" Jeanette Wen drawled lazily and rolled her eyes at Bruce Pang.
"And one hundred credits deducted for being relieved that I was still alive!" Bruce Pang frowned deeply and continued to deduct my Academy Credits liberally.
"One hundred credits awarded for… Uhh. Being here?" Jeanette Wen ran out of excuses to award me credits with and didn't even try to come up with a decent alternative.
"Stop undermining my attempts to educate the younger generation, you demoness!" Principal Bruce Pang shouted at Vice Principal Jeanette Wen and shook his finger at her.
"Have some self awareness please and stop acting like a baby. We're in front of a new student here!" Jeanette Wen told Bruce Pang off sternly.
"YOU have some self-awareness and stop spoiling him with credits! It's bad for youngsters to get rewards for things they didn't even do!" Bruce Pang shouted righteously.
Jeanette Wen glared back at Bruce Pang before finally sighing.
"I must be getting old. He's actually even starting to make sense." She muttered to herself.
"BUT you can't lie to me! You're just pissed because he thought you needed rescuing! HA! The invincible Bruce Pang! Rescued by a ten year old from drowning in his own private lake!"
"Demoness! Take this holy and righteous attack from me!!" Bruce Pang sent a vicious right hook flying towards Jeanette Wen merely stood still and said, "No roast pork for dinner if even a drop of water from your hand touches me."
Immediately, Bruce Pang retracted his fist and released a powerful burst of internal energy that vaporized all the water droplets around us!
"Ahahahaha! Roast pork! Did you cook roast pork today? Good! Good! I'll wait for you at home honey!" Bruce Pang leaned forward, gave Jeanette Wen a quick peck on her cheeks and then turned around and laughed his way towards a little hut by the lake a short distance away.
Of course, my jaw dropped to the ground at that.
