That same morning, Derek marched into the magic academy and knocked on the headmaster's door. The male elf and headmaster of the magic academy, Richard said "What is it?" and Derek entered looking angry and determined.
"Oh, dear Derek, I heard about what happened," said Richard, looking sympathetic. "I'm sorry to tell you this, but you're not allowed to be here."
"I may be a commoner now, but I'm still a student of this academy."
"Unfortunately, you're not. At least not until you pay your tuition. Besides, you know that commoner students are not allowed in this wing of the building."
"But my tuition is already paid in full."
"I've already given instructions to refund your father the remainder of your tuition. It must be done, of course, neither your father nor I would risk offending King Titus."
"Why would either of you be loyal to that usurper?" Derek sneered.
