Irene The Lady Who Turned Down Fate - Chapter 215

“What is this? Are you trying to harm me?” Ashton who was now quite confused and Annoyed asked as he stood up with swear dripping off his head said as his vision for blurry.

“I am not doing to harm you, this is a cold portion I’d you drink this then the heat you are feeling would calm down, believe me…or else you won’t last for even 5 minutes.” He said and Ashton snatched the bottle form his hand and dranked all of it in one single gulp.

.

“Good boy…”

After sometime Ashton calmed down, the teacher took the first step to break the ice.

“So are you interested in knowing what just happened?”

“….What do you think?…”

“Well, if I was in your place I would have hit the person next to me if he didn’t tell me what’s going on.”

.

“Luckily, you are my teacher.” Ashton said as he drank the water he was given.

“Hmm, I understand…Ashton, have you heard about the legend of this Academy?”

“…I did…you are looking for the Owner of the spiritual sprit here which is why the academy does this exam every 5 years that too for free.”

.

“Well you are all ear…then do you believe in that legend? Do you believe the sun God has really left a small amount of his spirit here?”

The teacher asked and Ashton kept getting werid vibes but the seriousness on his teacher’s face forced him to answer him

.

“…Honestly, I don’t know…about that spirit but I can feel the high amount of spiritual power here.”

“You are very logical, I see…well, what if O say that spirit has now found its owner…*Ash stiffness up* and that person is no other other you.” The teacher said and Ashton chocked on the water.

.

*cough* *cough*

“Spirit…Owner me? Teacher what are you taking about? I am not even a royal and my spiritual power is almost Nil.”

“Ashton, this Power is different form the ones of royals….because the holder of this power would always be loyal to the royal. And believe it or not but the thing that entered your body not long ago was the spirit of the ‘flying lion’ and you are his owner, the protector of Solar.” The teacher said as he bowed towards him.

.

“Sir…This must be a mistake. I am a normal human…not to mention I came to the academy only because of the mana present here. My body is weaker then others….so how could something so powerful chosse me? This must be a mistake.” Ashton said as he looked at his teacher.

“But Ashton, no matter how weak you think yourself as….this power has chosen you so it belongs to you.” The teacher said while Ashton kept on denying it until he felt a thug in his heart which made him kneel on the ground.

.

“Ouch!”

“Ashton control your emotions, and stop denying the spirit…or else you will keep being in pain.” The teacher said as he patted his shoulders.

.

Back to Present,

“(Just how can I accept this?…)” Ash thought as he sighed and slides downward.

“I just want to return…”

.

“Ash!!” Irene shouted as she opened her eyes with sweat driping off her forhead, her breath was inconsistent and heavy.

“My Lady! What wrong why did you shout out of blue?” Hana said as she ran inside the room.

.

“Hana….Did any news of Ash come foemt he academy?” Irene asked as she removed the blankets and jumped down her bed.

“My Lady, please calm down and there is no news of young Master yet. He must be at the academy safe and sound.” Hana said as she understood the reason Irene will look for Ash with such pale expressions would only mean sje is worried about him.

.

“…Right he is at the academy…but…”

“My Lady, Young Master is fine. So please calm down, and do you remember what today is?” Hana asked as she made her seat down on the bed carefully.

.

“…I remember it’s…Teacher’s birth anniversary…” Irene said in a low voice as she closed her eyes.

“And today, you shouldn’t be here worrying but do what you are supposed to do.”

“I know…I need to fulfill Teacher wishes.” Irene said as she opened her eyes and looked at the violin which was polished and ready for use.

.

Irene keeps disgusting and leaving the mansion to play with the commoners kids during Sundays although many times she fails but not today she as a tribute to her late teacher goes and plays the violin for the commoners kid as this was something he told her to do if she ever feels her repaying him.

With a black dress with whute colour sje hid her face with a hat attached with a black veil and with black boots and her hair in a bun she took.the violin in her hand and jumped off the balcony.

.

Yes she jumped down the balcony, she has been doing this for the last 5 years so she is now used to it, although Hana still keeps getting thr fright everytime she does it, yet she doesn’t stop.jer as what she is doing is right.

.

Irene walked all the way to downtown on foot playing with the kids and animals she meet by the road side and looking at people she never saw before.

.

And as she reached at the heart of the street, she saw bunch of kids in a group looking around and as soon as they saw here, there eyes light up and they flashed a warm smile towards her.

.

“Sister! Sister! You are here!” The kids said while jumping around her.

“Sister, would you play that thing for us again?” A girl asked as she looked at Irene with stars in her eyes.

“Hmm, let me think…” Irene said as she closed her eyes and the kids expressions turned gloomy.

.

“Hey! Why are you making the long face? I will the violin but you guys should ssing with me!” Irene said as she smiled and to her surprise instead of being happy the kids face turned dark.

.

“Kids? What’s wrong? Why did your expressions become more dark?” Irene asked in a worried tone but they didn’t answer. So she kneeled down to make herself as the same height as them and asked again.

.

“Is it because you don’t want to sing with me? Well it’s fine if you don’t want to I won’t force you but please don’t become so sulky.” Irene said as she looked at them while making a small pout.

“…Sister…it’s not like that…we want to…sing with you…but..” The little girl said as she played with her finger while the other kids nodded their head.

.

“Music isn’t for the lower class.” A voice from behind said and all the kids flinched, they were so scared that all of them ran and hide behind Irene.

“…Ha, you little chicks I told you to complete the work but you are here playing around with soem strange person. You all must really have a death wish!” That ill tempered Lady who was probably in her 50s and quite old fashioned siad as she pointed her hand fan towards Irene.

.

“Don’t say anything about Sister, she didn’t do anything wrong!” The little girl said in a trembling voice.

“Right, I shouldn’t blame her instead I should bring her to the town office and file a case against her. Just how could she tell such low class kids to sing! Or even listen to music! That too a violin.” That women said as she rose one of her eyebrows, as if she was observing something.

.

“(This women doesn’t seem right and jsuing by her looks she must be a noble too, but in this area vey few noble families live and most of them are known to me so who is this lady? She can’t be a traveller’s or just a passer by as she knows about the town office and is familiar with the kids.)” Irene thought as she looked at her dress which was a plane floral dress upto her toes and a light pink pearl necklace in her neck along with a hat which had feathers attached to it.

.

Irene was busy running her mind so she didn’t realize that women was standing every close to her and observing her closely.

.

“I got it! You…You aren’t a commoner right! And looking at your dress you are not higher then that of count level and are probably form a well known family or else why would you bother hiding your face.

And the most funny thing is even after being a noble you are singing around this commoner. You must be a stain to your family name..” She said and Irene didn’t get her point but when she did it was already too late for to take action as someone was already doing that for her.
