Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Chapter 39.3 - No title

"I will keep that in mind, Senior," Astron said while still holding the hand.

"That's good." Trevor continued without leaving his hand alone as he looked at Astron with a slight smile. But both were well aware that it was artificial. "It is good for freshmen to have a desire to learn new things."

Maya intervened, her tone curt, "Trevor."

One word and look was enough for Trevor to understand what she meant. The other students were already looking at the scene, and some of them didn't have a welcoming expression.

After all, even though it was a good show, at the end of the day, the commotion had already taken too much time, and the appearance of Trevor and his brutality actually made the students uncomfortable.

Every one of them was well aware that even though Trevor was one of the most famous students because of his lineage, what he did was purely outrageous and disregarded the Academy's authority.

And Maya didn't like it either.

"Junior, come with me." She shot Astron a quick, concerned look before grabbing his arm and pulling him away from Trevor.

Astron's eyes, momentarily locked with Trevor's, could see the small shakiness inside them as if he wasn't even a bit happy about it.

FLINCH!

Even a little bit of a murderous intent was oozing from him, and it was directed to Astron. He was able to pick it with his strong senses.

"Where are you going?" Trevor attempted to follow, the same smile playing on his lips, though the intent leaking from him made it evident that his expression was different than what he had in his mind.

"!"

But a single glance from Maya, a glare that could freeze the fiercest flames, halted him in his tracks. The unspoken message in her eyes was clear: stay away.

Just like that, Astron was dragged away by Maya while other students only watched with their eyes wide open.

Senior Maya was a bit eccentric with her forceful attitude most of the time, but it was the first time they had seen her this forceful.

It was as if something was special about that Astron guy.

"Did you see that? What just happened?" whispered one student to another, their eyes still fixed on the retreating figures of Astron and Maya.

"Senior Maya usually keeps to herself. Something must be up with that first-year," another student replied, curiosity evident in their tone.

"Don't tell me-"

"You don't think the same?"

"Nah…Ain't no way…."

"…..There is no way, right?"

"I hope so. Our precious Maya wouldn't be seduced by him, I don't believe it."

"He wasn't that handsome either."

"….."

"Well, maybe a little?"

"….."

"Okay, he was indeed handsome, but there are a lot more handsome students in this academy."

"You aren't wrong about that. And I don't think Senior Maya is that shallow."

As the students continued their speculative chatter, unaware of the unfolding drama in their midst, Trevor overheard their conversation. His jealousy, fueled by the unexpected turn of events, prompted him to approach the group.

"What are you all gossiping about?" Trevor grumbled, his usual arrogance tainted with a hint of irritation. The students exchanged uneasy glances, not expecting Trevor to be perturbed by their conversation.

"Well, we were just wondering what's going on with Senior Maya and that first year," one brave soul tentatively explained.

"Maya? She can handle herself. No need to waste your time on some insignificant junior," Trevor retorted, looking at the two. "You also shouldn't waste your time with such meaningless gossip either." His glare made it evident that he wasn't in a good mood.

'You just smashed a student because you couldn't stand him, and now you are talking about meaninglessness?'

The student wanted to retort, but he was well aware of who this guy was. So in the end, she shut her mouth and nodded her head.

'Astron Natusalune, Astron Natusalune. How dare you!'

Trevor was fuming inside as he was constantly reminded of the scene where her hand was touching him.

'How dare you touch her.'

He wanted to go and kill him right away, but he knew he couldn't do that inside the academy. If it was that easy, then every other male entering her sight would be dead already.

"Tch." He was about to leave as his appetite was ruined, but he couldn't.

"What happened here?" Just like the police, the instructor came quite late after everything was finished.

"….." And now he was going to be stuck while explaining whatever was transcribed here…..

********

Meanwhile, Astron was uncomfortable with getting dragged by Maya outside of the academy cafeteria.

It was both because she was forceful and because she was famous.

Everyone's eyes were on him, and he disliked that fact. He already preferred life without any bothersome situations, but Maya wasn't making it easy for him.

"Senior.".

"Not now."

However, Maya's determined pace made it clear she was adamant about dragging him off.

"Sigh…."

And her grip was weirdly strong, stronger than almost a close combatant.

'What is this strength?'

It was interesting for a mage to possess this amount of physical strength, but Astron didn't have time to question it right now.

"Should we stop now? We are already quite far away."

Maya halted abruptly and looked around. Just like he said, they were already far enough.

Releasing her grip on Astron's arm, Maya turned to face him, her expression a mix of concern and seriousness.

"Are you okay?" She asked as she looked into his arm. "That student was serious about attacking you."

"Isn't it a little bit late for that?" Astron mumbled.

However, Maya's eyes narrowed at his response, as if she didn't like how he talked.

"..."

'I am doing it again.'

Feeling that he was being rude, he slightly bowed his head.?"My bad, senior. Yes, I am okay."

"Hmm….Good." Maya nodded her head as she waved her hands. Following her hand movements, small vines started moving, forming two chairs made by nature itself.
