That was Wund?

Otis’s face twisted slightly as he went and reformed his expectations and presumptions once more. Paired with Leuvalt, and aligned with the historical, the mythical Shaktis Wund had seemed like another individual from a storied family, but to see that it had that sort of origin instead…

Interesting!

And it was interesting too, the way that the note was crumpled and then stored in the pants pocket of the teacher. Otis’s amber eyes traced Rio as the boy returned to his seat, then settled back upon Alto’s hip. If the opportunity presented itself, then he would have to see if he could slip that note out, if only to satisfy his curiosity. Secretive things such as these certainly would be difficult to obtain with just an open-hearted question, after all. Especially when there were those ruffians that assailed Rio in the morning too. Curious, curious, curious!

Less curious was the demonstration of the Personal Barrier.

The showmanship didn’t accomplish anything for Otis, after all. The subjective of a paper-thin yet powerful personal barrier was interesting only in its construction. He never intended on becoming a warrior in the same way that some others desired to, but if that was how Valen was able to thwart the attack of over a hundred students? Well, it was somewhat disappointing. The most boring answer around, really.

Still, if disinterest along was enough to stifle his ability to learn, Otis would have never reached the academic heights that he did.
