"You aren't just going to stand there all day, are you?" Levi asked the young and shivering girl the intimidating and passive-agressive question he could, which wasn't very friendly to be frank. "If you're worried about being kidnapped by me, well," Levi paused, "you probably shouldn't have ever stepped through those gates." Levi felt very lucky that the school had cameras installed, otherwise he would have been in an disadvantageous position should the girl have deicided to frame him. It wouldn't have been very hard to convict him of being a criminal. He was, after all, secretly feared by a bit of the students and teachers at the academy, for reasons not even they knew.
Levi took a quick look around his classroom. It wouldn't be filled with students till much later, yet here he was with what appeared to be a young girl. Levi still wanted to believe the girl was a monster, to relieve him of boredom at the least. It would be much more interesting than the cliche setting of her having been left by her family, now that would have been booooring.
That's when Levi heard the growling of a stomach and saw the bruises on her arms. Seeing the bruises didn't change Levi's expression very much, he was, after all, a member of the Leviathan family. It would be stupid to assume that he hadn't seen worse. "Such a mess," Levi mumbled this mostly to himself, then went to a cabinet and brought out some select herbs. Levi put the herbs down on a table and began performing Alchemy with his bare hands, a feat few people could acomplish. He, after transmuting the herbs, managed to make a scarlet-red liquid. Levi moved this liquid into a small bowl, then carried the bowl over to where the girl was. He hadn't used a book to make the potion but had instead made it out of pure theoretical science. He had been hoping to use the potion on someone other than himself, and found that the girl would be a perfect guinea pig. If Levi's concoction was to work, then the girl would most likely be healed in a short of amount of time. Or so he hoped, those ingredients had cost him a lot of trouble to
The young child flinched away when the man reached towards her with a strange mixture in his hand. The older soul within her rolled her mind's eyes, as if she would simply devour some random potion she had no idea the effects of or the contents of. As a mage who specialised in Torture Magic, she was well versed in the various potions one could make, using pain as an extra oomph to create something extraordinarily potent. Yet she did not recognise whatever it was he'd mixed together. It was likely that he invented it himself. The question was: was it poison?
"What is it?" she asked in a small, soft voice like crystallised sugar. Her eyes darted between his eerie ruby orbs and the bottle in his hand.
Levi was utterly and completely surprised, although his face showed no sign of him being so. He had not expected another possibility, especially one where things didn't go according to plan. Levi began listing all ingredients but one, "A combination of Boneset, pure gold, a small amount of magic, Caraway Seed, Althaea Leaves, and a few other random things. The final ingredient were non-toxic and expensive, but she didn't need to know that, nor did she need to know how he prepared it. "Anyway, I'm not going to force you to drink it." Levi moved the concoction onto his desk then sat down. "Seeing as I can't do anything about your scars without possible danger from me, I might as well ask something." Levi didn't have anything better to do after all, "What's your name and do you have any relatives living near here?" Levi really hoped she did. He didn't want to take care of a child, seeing as he had very little experience doing so. There was also the fact that the child could still have been a monster in disguise, but that was unimportant.
