Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

Returning to Withokere University, Tom saw Zerdar approaching him.

"Tom, your golems are amazing! Is your father really not planning to sell them?"

"I think he does, but not at large amount."

"That's expected. Creating these golems must have cost him a lot of resources."

Indeed, creating these Fighter-Class IT-6 golems required a lot of resources. They were as powerful as low Diamond Rank warrior, though they couldn't really match their power, but it was close enough.

"But," Tom continued. "There are golems slightly weaker than these, and my father can sell them at large amount."

"How strong are they?"

"As strong as high Platinum Rank warrior."

"That's fantastic. How many is your dad willing to sell?"

"50,000. 100,000. Just say the numbers and my father will deliver."

Zerdar's jaw fell to the ground. 100,000 Platinum Rank warriors… such force. Any noble in this kingdom would have trembled in fear when they heard of such numbers, and Tom mention it like he was mentioning the weather.

If Tom's father could sell more than 100,000 golems, then how much did he really had in his army?

Zerdar gulped. He thanked all of his ancestors that he was born with a smart brain. If he was a fool, he would have make Tom his enemies, and he would be destroyed.

As Tom and Zerdar was talking, a young skinny man walked up to them.

"Hey, Tom."

"Helid." Tom nodded.

"Is he your friend, Tom?" Zerdar asked.

"Hello, my name is Helid Ninel. I met Tom a few days ago."

"Nice to meet you, I am Zerdar Nastun."

"I have heard of your name before. A child prodigy from the east. They said your power even match a mid Diamond Rank magician."

Zerdar laughed. "They are exaggerating. The one that is truly powerful is our buddy, Tom."

"We don't have to argue over that fact." Helid laughed.

"What are you talking about. I am sure, there's someone more powerful than me in this university."

Zerdar nodded. "There always are, but you will surpass them all. I have been here for a couple years already."

Tom nodded. "I am still not sure what I will be doing. When will the class start?"

"Students can freely enter any class they want. A teacher would schedule a class, and its their choice if they want to attend it or not."

"The school doesn't group students according to their age, strength, or anything else?"

"Ummm, why would they? When we are already inside the university, age is just a number. Sure you can tell how talented they are from it, but it did not proof anything."

Suddenly, the students around them stopped in their tracks and gasped in amazement.

Tom was curios, so he looked to the side and saw a goddess-like figure with pristine skin and hour-glass figure walking on the side walk.

The eyes of young men were set onto her, admiring her beautiful existence. Her flourishing white hair fluttered as did her skin-tight robe the wrapped her body.

Surprisingly however, she was walking towards Tom.

"Miss Claudia." Zerdar bowed slightly.

Tom did not bow, instead, he activated his godly eyes and was shocked at what he saw.

'High Diamond Rank, but she is far stronger than the assassin earlier. Like far far stronger.'

She looked at Tom with judging gaze, looking him up head to toe. "Tom, son of Aldred. You are a special case. Thirteen years of age and already at mid Diamond Rank. Other than that, your physical attribute is even stronger than most warriors I have met."

The other students were shocked to hear that. Thirteen years old and already at mid Diamond Rank???

But more surprisingly, how could Tom had a physical attribute stronger than a warrior?

Unless he was constantly bathed in expensive potion from the moment he was born until now, it was pretty much impossible for a magician to have the physical durability of a warrior. Of course, there were always exception such as strengthening pills or defensive treasures.

Miss Claudia cold gaze turned warm all of a sudden. Her eyes sparkled with stars as she reached out with her soft, smooth hands, caressing Tom's cheek.

"I can guide your talent. I will be your personal teacher, and gives you personal guidance. I have never offered this to anyone before, but I will give you 'Special private lesson' at home as well."

Everyone gasped and almost choked on their own saliva after hearing that. Miss Claudia was a considered to be a young teacher, but she was already a very powerful high Diamond Rank magicians. She was extremely beautiful, and a lot of nobles even courted her to marry them, but she rejected them all.

She was cold, and seemingly never care about the students.

But then why Tom was treated differently?

Who the hell was he really? First Duke Hushum personally visited Tom, and now, one of the most famous teacher in the best university of the entire kingdom approached and even treated him with special care.

A lot of young boys gritted their teeth in resentment towards Tom. They had been fantasizing about Miss Claudia the first time they saw her. She was simply the image of beauty and female grace.

The fact that she gave Tom special attention angered them.

Tom was about to refuse, because he did not know much about this lady, but Zerdar sent a telepathic communication.

'Accept it, Tom! It's one-in-a-lifetime chance! No teacher in history has offered something like this before!'

Tom considered his option, and after a few seconds, he decided to agree.

"Alright, Miss Claudia. I agree."

Miss Claudia slightly smiled. Her words earlier didn't even sound like an offer, instead, it sounded like a statement that could not be refuted.

"In that case, visit me in my room later."

She walked away right after saying that.

Zerdar tapped Tom on the shoulder. "Congratulation, man. You are set up for life."

"What was that about?"

"Miss Claudia is one of the best teacher in campus. You wouldn't regret it."

"But aren't the best at Adamantite Ranks?"

"Tom… Although they are teachers in this establishment, they barely appear."

"What… isn't the point of getting in this university is to meet them?"

You think they have time for us? We can see them if we're lucky, but even I never see one in my life ever. They are very busy individuals. And the students are simply not their priority."

"Has someone reached Adamantite Rank by studying in this university?"

"A couple of times from what I have heard."

"At least it has credibility."

"Of course it has credibility. It's the best university in the kingdom. Now, let's get you started to some beginner class since you just joined the campus. Come, all of you follow me."

Helid and the other youngsters followed suit, along with Hemur.

Tom was led to a classroom. A lot of students were already inside, and a high Diamond Rank magicians were explaining things about magic with uncaring attitude on the podium.

After a few minutes, the professor left.

"Ehh… that's it? We just got here?"

"The higher the rank of the teacher, the less enthusiastic they are about teaching."

"Are you serious right now? What's the point of this university then?"

Tom began to consider killing the professors of this campus and absorbed their knowledge. That would be a much faster route than being played around like this.

"Don't worry. There are a lot of class every day."

Zerdar led them to another classroom which ended after a minute, then he led them to another one, then another one, then another one.

"Stop, I barely learn anything from these class hopping exercise. Is this what you guys do every single day?"

Zerdar shook his head. "Then you are not listening, Tom. The teacher might only teach for a short time, but each word carries their weight. After their lesson, we should be meditating and trying to comprehend their words. That's what most students do."

Tom kept that in mind, and as he entered another classroom, he began to see what Zerdar meant.

Although, the teacher only spoke for a minute or two, everything that came out of their mouth was actually very beneficial for magician's growth.

"What about asking questions? Are we allowed to ask?"

"You have to pay 10 Epic mana crystals for each question."

Tom sighed. He might be rich, but spending that much for simple questions seemed too extravagant.

"Its quite expensive, which forced students to only ask the necessary question."

"They really think this through, huh?"

"It's the best school in the Kingdom. Even students outside the kingdom came here to study."

"It's that great?"

"Of course. But the best university in the world is probably within The Divine Empire of Stotford or in the Kingdom of Presteria. These two states are the powerhouse of this continent."

Tom nodded. He actually got some information about that from Corduul.

As they were walking in the school hall, Tom saw a large stone with names carved on them.

"What are those?"
