Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System-Novel

“Oh?” The Deans’s eyes glowed as he looked at the teacher with cold eyes. “You dare help out outsiders!?”

A great pressure suddenly fell on the man as magic circle after magic circle began to form in the air around him. Seeing this, I couldn’t help but be shocked. It was my first time seeing so many magic circles formed in an instant without a single one being written by hand, besides the ones I have created. I was truly impressed and kinda wished to sit down and talk with this old man about magic.

“Do you know the punishment for conspiring with outsiders!?” The Dean yelled out. I watched as the teacher was pressed against the ground. Blood began to trickle out of his nose, eyes, ears, and mouth.

“Dean! You shouldn’t kill him! We need to investigate who he was working for.” A young woman flew over and placed her hand on the Dean’s shoulder.

The Dean’s brow twitched, but the magic circles all disappeared, along with the pressure in the area. “Take him away. I want to know who is behind this by the end of the day. Once he is no longer needed, you know what to do.”_-.

“Yes.” The woman bowed her head. She looked over at the man with a bit of disdain in her eyes. She then looked over at me and smiled warmly, which made me tilt my head in confusion. I wonder if she knows me or something….

“Continue with registration. Little lady and the three behind you with letters, please hand them to me.” The Dean walked over and sat down behind the registration table.

“This is my letter of recommendation. And thank you.” I handed the letter over and gave my thanks. It was the least I could do. After all, I wanted to become friends with this old man! And he did just help me. I am glad he was not someone who was also on the side of those who wanted to take me down.

“All is in order, Baroness Cyrilia. I do apologize for the lack of training of my staff. I do hope you will not hold it against the academy.” The Dean’s words surprised me. I did not expect an apology. It was not like he could control everyone here.

“No, it’s fine. I did not plan to let the people who are trying to scheme against me get away with it easily. That was why I caused a fuss. I should also apologize for my rudeness earlier as well.” I was quite rude. Hopefully, he will not take my rudeness to heart.

“It’s fine you were angry. I would have snapped too. Once we figure out who is behind it all, I will call for you and let you know.” The Dean waved the whole thing off, which made me let out a relieved sigh. “Just sign this, and you will be all set.”

I signed the papers and said goodbye to the Dean before walking through the gates to the first testing area. I quickly found Adel, who was surrounded by quite a few guys. She had a look on her face that showed she was not happy one bit, but the people around her kept trying to suck up to her.  I guess this is what it means to be royalty. People will always try to earn your favor.

I sighed and walked over and pushed the group of boys out of the way. “Who the hell just pushed me!?”

One boy yelled out. I turned to look at the boy with a mocking smile. “You! You’re the new upstart! Do you know who I am?”

“A boy who yells a lot?” I answered in a matter of fact kind of way, causing the boy’s face to turn red and the finger that was pointing at me to freeze. The other boys began laughing at him, causing his face to grow a deeper shade of red.

“Faith!” Adel yelled out as she walked over and took my hand. “I must go now. I need to wait for my other friends.”

I said nothing more as I let Adel lead me away but stopped short when I heard someone speak under their breath. “Tch…. This bitch rather hanging out with upstarts. Let’s see how well she will react when things happen later on.”

“Adel, wait here…”  The boy’s voice was low, but I could not allow what was said to pass. I let go of Adel’s hand and disappeared from where I stood, and reappeared in front of the boy with my fist already drawn back. “How dare you speak about my friend in such a manner!”

<strong>*Bam!*  </strong>

I punched him directly in the face. While I was not using my full strength, he still flew quite a few feet end over end until he fell to the ground in a heap. My face was heating up. My anger was starting to take over as I stomped my way over to the boy. When I arrived in front of him, he looked up at me with fear filled eyes. But I did not care. I reached down and grabbed him by the neck. “What do you mean you have plans for her later on? What did you plan to do to Adel!? She is not only the Princess of this kingdom but also my best friend! Tell me now! Or else I will snap your neck!”

“Faith!” Adle ran over and hugged me from behind. “Faith, let him go. Or you will be kicked out of the academy.”

“Adel, this jerk wanted to do something to you!” I yelled out, my gripping tightening on the kid’s neck. He was clawing at my hand as his face turned purple.

“What happened now!?” The Dean’s voice filled the air. I looked up to see the Dean landing behind the young man. He did not move to make me release him, he just looked at me with questioning eyes. “Baroness Cyrilia, what happened?”

“He spoke about planning something against Adel. I have no idea what it is but I heard him speak of it as we were walking away. My hearing is quite good after all.” I answered honestly.
