Cyno had to instill fear in people's minds
As he walks through the corridors of the Akademiya, his Invoker's spear in hand, the researchers and scholars bow down slightly to show respect. As the General Mahamatra, it is his duty to lead the Matra and discipline those who go against the Akademiya's rules.
You were a scholar too. But one can say that the two of you were almost.....friends. Almost. Acquaintance would be a better word. The TCG tournament allowed the two of you to exchange pleasantries in between rounds. He was a lawful enforcer, the one that held authority over the nine bows. But you did not see it that way. For you, he was just Cyno, a fellow TCG player. It was weird at first that even outside of a tournament setting you could be slightly frank with him, shocking your colleagues and Cyno himself.
He was interested in talking to you about more than just TCG and research and he even made an effort not to include his jokes in your conversations. But one day he was eavesdropping on your conversation with one of your colleagues did he finally understand the motive behind you getting close to him.
"Oh don't worry I'll talk Cyno out of suspending you from the Akademiya. He likes me he'll definitely listen to me"
Oh but that's not how it's gonna work. You must recieve punishment for even thinking that you can take advantage of him.
So with a Wolf's Swiftness, he began making arrangements for your punishment. Surely this will make you realise the consequences of you leading him on.
"On the accounts of plagiarism and delibrate destruction of another scholar's research, you are hereby suspended from the Sumeru Akademiya"
You couldn't help but be dumfounded. How did this happen??
"My research is 100% original. I have given credits where I did not cite my own data and I did not destroy anyone's work!! These are false accusations" right at that moment Cyno walks in and you felt relieved. He will surely get you out of this mess. "Unfortunately for you these are not false accusations, I have confirmed them myself. Please collect your belongings and empty your allotted room"
"But this is not fair where will I live Cy-"
"You have three days. Meeting dismissed"
With tear filled eyes you look back at the Akademiya that you so loved and wished to go back, but now you'll never be able to step foot again. With nowhere to go and stay, you went on your way to another nation.
Cyno looks at you from the window. He truly wished things could become more romantic between you two but your corrupt ways had to be corrected. He cannot allow Sumeru scholars to behave like this. Others got to know about your friendship with him, he could not let others think about being friends with people in the Matra to gain an advantage, so he delibrately suspended you.
After all he had to instill fear in people's mind
