Getting spoiled in a woman dominating world-Chapter 73: Wait.. What?
Chapter 73: Wait.. What?
"What? You are a D-rank awakener now?"
Standing in the living room, Elize exclaimed in shock and Brandon gave a faint nod "Yeah..."
There was a brief second of silence before Elize let out an excited gasp.
The next thing Brandon knew, she threw her arms around him and the force of the hug nearly knocked him off balance.
"Oh my dear... you really are a D-rank awakener!" she squealed, squeezing him so tightly that he felt the air leave his lungs.
Brandon chuckled, caught off guard by her enthusiasm, but he returned the hug, feeling the warmth of her affection. "Aunt Elize..."
She retracted her face a little and placed a firm kiss on his cheek "My little boy has become a D rank awakener in just a week."
She cupped his face and spoke "I know my boy is always special."
Looking at the joy in her eyes, Brandon’s heart swelled with affection and he nodded his head "Mhm..."
She let out another joyful laugh before pulling him in for another bone-crushing hug, shaking him slightly from side to side. "Mhm... good job, dear."
Ravene, who was sitting on the couch, couldn’t help but chuckle and glanced at Charlotte, who was just standing there silently.
With a smile, she stood up and walked up to her "Done shopping?."
Charlotte’s gaze flickered to Ravene and she showed a slight smile "Yeah, Sister Ravene."
Still being hugged by Elize, Brandon glanced at Charlotte and she also noticed his gaze.
Her eyes squinted slightly as she spoke "I see. D-rank in a week... You’re growing faster than I expected."
Elize grinned and patted his head "That woman has been training you well, hasn’t she?"
With a slight cough, she clapped her hands and spoke "Well... Now, let’s all celebrate for Brandon reaching D rank..."
"We all should drink booze all night, hahaha."
Brandon: -_-
Ravene: -_-
Charlotte: -_-
This drunkard.

Next day morning-
Brandon was standing in front of the mirror, checking his uniform one last time.
Just as he was about to turn away, he felt a faint vibration in his pocket.
Reaching in, he pulled out his phone and glanced at the screen.
A smile appeared on his lips, and he attended the call.
Eira from the other side spoke "Brandon, are you coming to Academy today? You were absent yesterday."
Nodding his head, he replied "Yeah... did you miss me yesterday?"
Hearing his teasing, Eira blushed faintly and replied "No, you idiot."
Brandon just chuckled and she spoke "Then come to Academy soon. I will be waiting."

Walking down the stairs, he looked at Elize, who was sitting on the couch watching TV "I am leaving, Aunt Elize."
Looking at him, Elize stood up and walked to him before kissing his forehead, "Mhm."
He smiled and made his way to the door to set out.
However, seeing Charlotte standing in the hallway, he frowned slightly ’Big Sister?’
As he walked to the door, she stopped him "Wait."
Hm? Brandon raised an eyebrow and she extended her hand, showing a silver ring in her palm "A storage artifact. It would be useful for you."
For me? Brandon was dumbfounded looking at the ring.
He hesitated for a second before reaching out and taking the ring from her hand.
The metal was cool against his skin, and he could already feel the faint trace of ether embedded within its structure.
Looking at the ring, he was amazed and glanced at Charlotte "Thanks."
Charlotte’s gaze narrowed slightly, and she muttered "I heard the Holy Church wants to baptize you."
Hearing this, Brandon nodded his head "Yeah..."
Charlotte gave a thoughtful nod and glanced back at the Porsche parked outside, where Ravene was waiting for him in the driver’s seat.
"Go now."
Brandon nodded and pushed the door open.
A gust of crisp morning air greeted him as he stepped outside and he quickly made his way to the car.
Entering in, Brandon showed the ring and spoke "Charlotte gave it to me."
"Ohh..." Ravene was amused to see this and mumbled "Looks nice. She gave one to you sooner than I expected... Should be useful to you."
"Yeah.." Brandon murmured as he brushed his thumb against the ring.

Entering his classroom, Brandon looked at Eira and Calistra who were sitting in the far back.
Seeing him Eira’s eyes brightened "Brandon..."
He quickly took his usual seat beside her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
"Good morning..."
She leaned into his touch, enjoying the warmth of his chest "Morning..." as she replied softly.
Calistra, sitting beside Eira looked at them for a moment and stayed silent.
Meanwhile, Eira suddenly straightened up as she looked at him more seriously.
"By the way, do you even know that we have theory exams coming up?"
Brandon blinked and tilted his head in confusion "Exams? What exams?"
Hearing this, Eira facepalmed herself "As I thought. Are you serious?"
Brandon frowned slightly "I mean, I knew there were practical evaluations, but theory exams? Since when do awakeners have to take written tests?"
Eira sighed and rubbed her forehead as if she was dealing with a lost cause "Since always. You seriously didn’t know? How are you here without realizing that we have theoretical assessments?"
Brandon scratched his cheek. "I thought this academy was all about fighting and using ether. Who the hell cares about writing essays?"
Eira let out an exasperated sigh. "It’s not just essays, idiot. We have to understand ether theory, historical applications, energy flow mechanics, and even the politics behind ether regulations." ƒreewebɳovel.com
"How do you expect to become an elite awakener if you don’t know any of that?"
Brandon leaned back in his seat "I dunno. I just figured I’d keep beating stuff up and let people who care about that kind of thing handle the nerd work."
Looking at him, a faint blush appeared on Eira’s cheeks as she lowered her gaze and spoke in a hesitant tone "Well, lucky for you... if you want. I can help you."
Hm? Brandon raised an eyebrow "Help? Like, you will tutor me?"
With a slight cough to hide her embarrassment, she spoke "Mhm. We have two weeks before the exams, and considering you don’t even know what subjects are on the test, I’d say you need all the help you can get."
"Well, you could always fail and be forced to take remedial classes. Or worse, get kicked out of the academy for not meeting the academic standards."
Brandon stared at her, processing her words. "Wait.. what? You can actually get kicked out for failing in theories?"
Eira nodded her head and reached out, grasping his hand before intertwining her fingers with his.
"Hm, so listen to me... I can tutor you in that."
With a chuckle, he replied, gripping her fingers firmly "Well, I am a lucky guy to have a girlfriend who can teach me."
Wha-
Eira’s whole face went deep red as she flustered, "I-I am not your girlfriend?"
He leaned forward and pecked her lips in a soft kiss "Really?"
What?
Her face turned even brighter, and she raised her hands hitting his chest.
"Idiot, stop, stop doing that."
Calistra just stayed silent, watching their banter.
Meanwhile, another pair of curious eyes were also watching them.
Sipping the drink in her hand, Elena smiled "Wowza..."
