Aurum gradually warmed up to them, until they began to pry away his blade. His eyes widened, and he yelled as he yanked it from the kid's grasp. They all replied by climbing on him like he was a tree and pulled him down. Fortunately, Sandine, the teacher, was nearby and summoned the pupils to the schoolroom. He coughed, adding, "I'm glad I was able to fend them off." Aurum averted his gaze, embarrassed, as the teacher giggled.
After exchanging greetings, the instructor detailed how the pupils had recently been out of control. So she requested him to keep an eye on her kids and make sure they are awake and attentive in class. Aurum hesitated a little, but he can't desert someone who needs aid, so even if it was uncharted ground, he shook her hand and entered the classroom. Sandine presented Aurum to the class before they started, and the youngsters appeared thrilled at first.
Aurum eventually took a seat and became as immersed in the teacher's remarks as any of the pupils. However, the teacher saw a close student who was so drowsy that he kept striking his head against the desk table, waking up, just to resume the cycle of sleep and awake. In the flash of an eye, Aurum appeared behind the child. His crimson eyes were ablaze, and a malevolent force filled the room. The strain of such force awoke everyone from their slumber. "Drop and give me twenty!" the youngster pleaded, but Aurum responded with booming authority, "Now!" The child quickly fell to the ground and exercised before returning to his seat, more enthusiastic and attentive than before.
Aurum smirked maliciously before warning everyone else, "Is there anyone else who feels like taking a nap?" They all responded to the same question at the same moment. He began to feel a little proud after getting them in line. He approached the teacher after the lesson had concluded. Sandine felt thankful, but she was also afraid of the warrior. It appeared that, while his approach kept all of the pupils alert throughout class, it also worried the teacher. He apologized, but the teacher, to his astonishment, did as well. She appeared to be envious of the inherent authority he emanated.
Aurum observed and approached Sandine genuinely. "Wisdom without authority is like a heavy axe without an edge." You speak with great knowledge. Never, ever change." She smiled as she led him outside. In retaliation, the youngsters played a joke on him. Of course, Aurum began chasing them around the playground. He took his award and said his goodbyes at the conclusion of the day.
