Rex reappeared in the main hall, a terminal which receives students and other staff who use the front terminal of the school.
He was greeted by whispers and angry glares from most of the students but some of them seem to not care at all.
"Gauntlet, what subjects are on my time table for the day", Rex quizzed the AI of his gauntlet,
#The subjects you have today are mathematics, alchemy and Business class#, "Business?, guess i have some free time", Rex mocked as he headed for the math class in the north section of the building.
"Alright class, I hope you did your homework because up next is a pop quiz!", Mr. Charles exclaimed with his trademark excitement.
"Sir!", came a voice from the back of the class.
"Yes, Emma, what seems to be the problem?" Mr. Charles asked?
"Well, you did not give us any homework in preparation for this test but you just mentioned it as something we should have done before the test, so could you postpone the test and give us the homework now?", she argued.
"Oh, i see where you are coming from but I was referring to the fact that I told you to practice everything I taught last week", Mr. Charles countered.
"I know telling you to study is not actual homework but then again, you do not need to be told before you learn, Right?" Mr. Charles asked with a grin on his face.
"But sir, why would you tell us about the quiz, is it not supposed to be a pop quiz?" came another voice from the left.
"Well, yes but since you complained so much the last time, i decided to help out this time or... would you prefer to not know at all?", Mr. Charles said with a mocking grin that put the fear of God in the students.
"Any more questions?,.... no?..... then let us begin.", he said, and with a snap of his fingers, everyone's gauntlet received the questions to the pop quiz.
"You have 30 minutes, and DO NOT RUSH, i need to catch up on an anime episode", Mr. Charles, said.
15 minutes later, Mr. Charles' anime episode was interrupted by a finished assignment, he sighed heavily and closed his ARUI to address the student who turned in his assignment early.
"Mr. Reynolds!", Mr. Charles called.
Rex rose up from his seat.
"You interrupted my episode...as usual....you are free to leave", Mr. Charles grumbled.
Just as Rex made his way to the door, another student entered the class.
"Wait, Mr. Reynolds!", Mr. Charles suddenly exclaimed.
He turned to the young man who just entered the class while Rex sat down again.
"Well, well, well,.....I see you love to appear at your own time Mr. Johnson.", Mr. Charles said.
"Sorry sir, I had a hard time finding the class ", the boy said.
"I see", Mr. Charles said skeptically.
"Anyway, introduce yourself to the class." Mr. Charles commanded.
The boy turned to face the class and introduced himself, "I am Jonathan Johnson, son of Richard Johnson, leader of cosine kingdom."
After hearing this the entire class went dead silent.
"You may take your seat", Mr. Charles said to Jonathan.
Mr. Charles gestured to an empty seat next to Rex, and Jonathan walked towards it while his new class mates looked at him with murder in their eyes.
Jonathan wondered why his mates had suddenly become hostile towards him, was it something he said?...."Ignore them, they will not stop trying to drive you mad even if you report them, and you can not harm them either", Rex interrupted Jonathan's thoughts as he finally sat down.
"what do you mean?", Jonathan asked with a worried expression.
"You are a noble, right?", Rex asked.
"Yes, I am" Jonathan confirmed.
"From your behavior and response to their attitude, I can assume you have either been home schooled or you have been attending a school for nobles ," Rex deduced.
"I went to a school for nobles but what has that got to do with anything?" Jonathan asked.
"They hate nobles, because of what our ancestors did to them, they make it a tradition to make sure every noble in this school suffers. I thought I would be the only one this year but I guess I am just lucky these days ", Rex said with a grin.
"Not to be rude but that is just... messed up, why do i have to suffer for what some old geezers did?" Jonathan grumbled.
"Welcome to the good life", Rex said sarcastically.
