Freya had her small plate of teriyaki chicken donburi, and she seemed to be enjoying it very well. Her little hands elegantly held the two chopsticks.

Nick knew she must have eaten Asian food on a daily basis to be able to wield them in such a manner.

On the other hand, Matthew was drinking large amounts of water.

His hands moved at a rapid pace grabbing one boneless chicken wing, putting it into his mouth and swallowed it. As soon as he finished eating one, he reached for a gla.s.s of water and downed it to cool his mouth down.

Nick did not understand why he would get some hot wings if he could barely handle it.

"You eat like an animal; you need to learn table manners."

Matthew just popped another wing inside his mouth when he heard Freya's side comment. He wanted to say something, but instead, he started coughing hard, as he pounded his chest.

Freya grinned as she took his gla.s.s of water away from him. Matthew reached for it, but she had it far away and the only way he could get it is if he jumped across the table.

He was not going to jump across the table for a gla.s.s of water. At least… not in public.

His mouth started burning. Previously there was a sensation in his mouth, but since he always washed the taste away with water, he didn't feel it as much. Now he could really feel the heat. More and more sweat appeared on his forehead as it slid down. He started panting a little bit as well.

"Such a real man you are."

Freya mocked him a little.

"Knock it off and give him the water. You two are worse than my little cousins on Thanksgiving."

Nick was halfway done with his sub sandwich when he started drinking his pink lemonade. Freya finally had her fun and gave Matthew his water back, to which he drank it as fast as he received it. From the look in his eyes, Nick knew that he would want to get revenge on her.

"Evil! You're such an evil person. Nick, I think we should leave her next time, just us bros go out."

Matthew told Nick, but Nick himself felt like laughing at Matthew's facial appearance. Matthew's lips were red and a bit more plump than before. This was because of the wings he was eating.

"Matthew, what a surprise to see you here."

Nick turned his head and caught sight of a pet.i.te girl who was only a bit taller than him while he was seated. Her red ponytail flowed down her back while her red eyes looked at Matthew.

Her arms were pus.h.i.+ng up her small breast making them look bigger than what they actually were. Honestly, she looked like a middle school student in Nick's eyes.

"Scarlet..."

"A mighty royal is sitting here acting a fool, don't you think that is a bit uncalled for?"

She came here for dinner with a friend, but she spotted Matthew. She saw the way he was acting, and she felt disgusted.

Matthews att.i.tude changed when she arrived. That playful look on his face was gone, it was now replaced by one that told everyone around that he was serious.

"I never said I was a mighty royal; t.i.tles are just that t.i.tles. I could care less about such a thing, only someone like you would want one. It would seem that you were bound to never change."

"A pity you are wrong, I have changed."

Scarlet did not let his words faze her.

"Adding a layer of new clothes and pretending to be different doesn't make you a new person. What are you doing here anyways?"

"What I can't come to a restaurant and eat? Who died and made you the ruler?"

"No, what are you doing over here at this table? Don't you have something better to do? Or can it be that all those friends of yours left you when you arrived?"

"Act-"

Scarlet was about to say something, but another voice cut her off.

"Scarlet, who are these people?"

A young man with messy blue hair appeared behind her. His light blue eyes swept over the three people seated at the round table before he focused his attention on Scarlet. He had a black and blue lance on his back that made others feel as if it was a warning not to approach lightly.

"Arthur this is another one of the four freshman royals, Matthew White. We were just having a small reunion."

"A royal huh? He seems a bit weak to be one. The pressure around him can't even be felt."

Matthew stood up from his seat and faced Arthur.

He started releasing a bit of his essence from his body causing the people in the restaurant to take notice of him.

"Want to go?"

"Why don't we calm down here, there is no need to put on such a show."

Nick b.u.t.ted in as he got between the two of them. He couldn't let a fight happen here. One, there were too many people someone was bound to get hurt. Two, students were not allowed to fight outside of the arena or else they would be punished. He was not going to let Matthew face punishment.

"Who is this loser? I barely even noticed him."

Arthur was a whole head taller than Nick so when he said those words he looked down on him.

"Some of Matthew's friends. Pay them no mind they aren't even threatening."

"You know at first I was going to ignore you since you seemed to have a grudge against Matthew and I wanted to see what would happen. But don't' think you can just say whatever you want just because you are a little famous. I think it's about time to you down a notch."

Freya's aura rose as she placed herself in front of Scarlet.

The doors to the restaurant opened, and two people walked in. They walked right over to Nick's group.

Wearing an orange and red badge on their collar, they were members of the disciplinary committee. One was a huge male with short brown hair and green eyes. His whole body could compare to those Olympic weightlifters. The other was a beautiful young woman with long black wavy hair. The two of them together released a pressure that could be felt in the entire restaurant.

Nick recognized one of them; she was Ca.s.sandra who he saw yesterday. Yet it was not Dustin who was with her this time, as it was a young man who had this charm to him. One couldn't help but look at him when he walked into the restaurant.

It would seem that Ca.s.sandra noticed Nick as well as she took a glance his way.

Arthur turned around and started walking away. He knew who they were and he was not looking to start a problem in front of these two. There was a time and place for everything.

"We'll settle this at the freshman compet.i.tion. I'll show you why you will never be on my level."

Arthur told them as he continued to walk away.

Scarlet had a mocking smile on her face as she waved her hand.

"Cya around Matthew, don't fall too low before the compet.i.tion."

Ca.s.sandra looked at Nick, while the young man with her watched Scarlet and Arthur leave the restaurant.

"Care to explain what happened?"

Nick scratched his cheek. He started to recall everything that happened to the point of them showing up.

"Well… and that's what went down."

The young man next to Ca.s.sandra nodded his head when he heard what the situation was.

"Arthur Kidd, he is an arrogant fellow, but he does have the skills to back it up. If we are talking about potential alone, he has the second highest rating in this year's new batch. However, Scarlet Chapman is not bad either. She has a natural talent that not many have achieved even in our year. But if we were to compare her to the queen, there would be no compet.i.tion.

It would seem that this year's freshman four royals will put on quite the show. Don't worry too much, this sort of thing happens every year when all four royals meet up. Someone always thinks they are better than the others."

The young man told them, not seeming to pay much attention to the problem at all.

"Excuse me, but who are you?"

Freya asked him. She knew many of the people in the freshman rankings, but she was not that knowledgeable about the uppercla.s.sman. She knew a few of their t.i.tles but not their faces.

"Ah my bad I forgot to introduce myself, I am Fred Bullock. Disciplinary Committee president. A pleasure to meet you."

Fred made a small bow to show his respect for the ones younger than him.

"Wait, what do you mean when all four meet? Arthur, Scarlet, and then you have Matthew. That only makes three of them."

Freya told Fred.

Fred looked at her and seemed to understand something.

"The one with the highest potential and talent this year is standing right next to you. Nick Wilson, they said that even the queen's talents couldn't match his own."

Fred explained.

Freya and Matthew both looked at Nick in a questioning manner. Previously he told them his EXO ability and its rank. No matter how you look at it, his growth would be low. Even Freya had better potential than him.

Fred himself did not bother to go into more detail as Nick did not tell them his own status. It was likely that he did not want to show off his abilities so soon.

"Anyways, we heard that there was a chance of a problem occurring here, so we came to stop it. No need for that now. But since I'm here, and I've met you, Nick. Would you be interested in joining the disciplinary committee?"
