Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 320 The Barrier Cannot Stop Him

Arthur, Chris and Cheryl slept in the mansion, each one with their own vast room. The difference between the bed was worlds apart, and it was something neither siblings had used before.

"So this is how it feels to be rich. I want it one day, but getting stronger is my priority." Cheryl thought, as she enjoyed the softness of the bed.

While the two siblings had nothing to worry about and could enjoy their time there as its fullest, Arthur had other things to worry about and to do.

He put on a black hood and went around the city, trying to find more clues about Hiley. The more he looked into it, the more distant she was. What had happened?

The only thing Arthur knew was that she went to the central continent with someone else, like a teacher. But who was that person? It was an answer he wished, and not knowing it made his heart uneasy.

Just like all the previous searches, it amounted to nothing, so he returned to the mansion before Chris and Cheryl woke up, acting as if nothing happened.

"We should eat something and also buy some decent food for our journey."

They still had a few hours before the merchant left with the carriages, so it was more than enough to have a proper meal and buy some things to bring with them for the journey.

After they were done with these two things, it was time to continue with their journey. All the other students were already there, as well as were most of the other passengers.

"These scumbags are there already. Can we go in another carriage, perhaps?"

"Nah, I don't think that it is possible at all. We should endure, and it is not like the journey will take that long." Chris said.

Even though they were not feeling it traveling alongside these people, it was not as if they would try something before reaching the school. Arthur was afraid these students would try to hurt Chris and Cheryl after their classes start.

As for Seth, he had left the city too, with lots of things to do, and an invasion to take care. It was a lot, even for a powerful mage like him.

When Arthur went inside the carriage, which was waiting for them at the city's entrance, not a single student muttered a word. They had spoken to each other, and decided to not act until they reached the school.

"If it is not possible to harm him, then we will go after the two siblings." That was what they all had agreed upon.

The carriage went up and down as the road was not in its best condition, and their journey would not end so soon.

~~~~

Fifteen days passed like a blink of an eye. The merchant stopped at other towns, and Arthur did the same, took care of Chris and Cheryl's needs, and tried to look for Hiley, but it was not working like he hoped for.

After that much time, it was finally time for their last destination, and that was the Scorching Sun Academy! The merchant stopped, and all the new students left the carriage, being greeted by two mages who were at the school's entrance, waiting for them.

"Are you all the new students? Come with me, please." One mage said.

The students felt it was the perfect opportunity to strike, seeing that Arthur was among them.

"Hold on, seniors. This man right there is not one student, and is trying to sneak in!"

"What?"

Chris and Cheryl wanted to punch these idiots. Arthur was not trying to sneak in at all. He had just left the carriage with them to say goodbyes. What was the reason for all this lie they kept spreading?

Arthur found it funny. With only one word of his, these students would never enter that school. Of course, he would not do that, as they were just immature kids who had a lot to learn, but teaching them a lesson was not out of the question.

The mages who were there to accompany the new students went toward Arthur, and tried to grab him by the arms, and throw him away, as if he was someone trash in their eyes.

He looked at both mages, who were not even rank 1 but at the tenth circle, and said in a cold tone, "don't even think about putting your hands on me if you wish your school does not turn into a pile of dust."

"Hahaha, what is he talking about?"

Arthur send a tiny portion of his mana toward the two mages, and they understood in an instant Arthur was not someone they could mess with. The students who were plotting against him did not feel a thing, so they could not understand the reason for these two powerful mages to freeze.

"M-May I ask who the senior is?"

"What is the difference? It is not with you I will talk to. Is the leader of this school here?" Arthur said.

"He is busy now, but I am sure the senior might wait a little..."

These two mages knew Arthur was strong, but they did not believe he was stronger than the leader of the school. Well, they were mistaken, but Arthur was not in the mood for fighting with them.

"Okay. I will head first with my two friends here. No problem, right?"

Arthur said as he went toward the school's gate, pulling Chris and Cheryl. The siblings had a token which allowed them to walk past the barrier, but Arthur did not!

"Wait, senior, the barrier will attack you!"

When the guard said that sentence, the students had smiles on their faces, waiting for the show to happen. They wanted Arthur to turn into dust right in front of them.

But things did not go as planned. Perhaps if it was one of the top schools, then sure Arthur could have a hard time with their barrier. Not that he would lose, but it would take some time for him to destroy it, just like when Sebastian tried to attack Ouroboros.

A weaker school? That was a completely different story. Arthur went inside the school, and when the barrier tried to stop him, it did not work. The mana blasts from the barrier were easily stopped by a wave hand, and after a few hits, it suddenly stopped working.

"Rector!" one mage said. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

The leader of the school came to see Arthur after sensing the barrier failing to attack him. Rank 2 mages would have a hard time, which could only mean the youth in front of him was the legendary Arthur, who was once called a demon during the war.

"Are you Arthur? The hero of this continent?" A gorgeous woman with red-hair said.

She gently bowed toward Arthur, expressing her respect.

"Hero? People are calling me that already?"

"Yes, and some places are already building some statues of you. You are a beacon of hope for us. I am Nyssa, the leader of this school. Please, come in."

Arthur liked the way she treated guests, and judging by her looks, Theo was having a good time in such a school.

As for the other students, those who talked shit about Arthur were trembling with fear, while Chris and Cheryl were shocked after discovering Arthur was not as simple as he looked.
