"All right class is dismissed" The teacher said as he left the alchemy lab. Once they were sure the teacher was gone, the students turned their attention to Johnathan who returned their gaze to them defiantly. "Enough, if you have a problem with him then you have a problem with me"Rex said as he released enough mana to vibrate the air around him.
"Go ahead, you Nobles always think you can use your power however you want but we all know the truth don't we?" Jake said. "So what?, You think you can beat anyone who has Noble blood just because we live in a fancy house?, We already talked about this and we know how it's going to end so drop it before I drop you!!." Rex roared. "OK... OK, I will leave for now but remember, I am always watching." Jake said as he picked up his bag and walked out of the classroom with the other students following his lead.
"Thank you, but if it's ok with you I believe I need an explanation, why are the students in my class trying to kill me and what did the Nobles do to them." Jonathan said, "it's just lies that were spread around a while ago, it happened about a week after I was transferred here. According to the rumor, we the nobles slaughtered billions of common folk on this planet many years ago. they say that's how we got so powerful but it's not true so you can ignore it." Rex replied.
"But why would that cause them to act violently to us?" Jonathan asked, " to be fair they did nothing violent, at least not yet" "You know what I mean Rex." "Fine, but I am not the best person to tell the story so how about we hang out after school?" Rex said, " Sure, if I am still alive" Jonathan replied.
The closing bell rung at 3pm and the students of Centrum high school let out a sigh of relief and shifted their thoughts to the less stressful activities they could do after school.
"Alright man, time to get going" Rex said with excitement in his eyes. "Sure but where exactly are we going?" Jonathan asked?, "The mech boxing arena" Rex replied. "What?, Do you have any idea how far that place is?, it takes 5 hours to get there from our current location. tell me you're joking." Jonathan said.
"Relax, I have my ways and I also know someone who can teleport us there but first, we have to call him" Rex said. "Hold on, you know someone powerful enough to use teleportation?" Jonathan said. "Just follow me, we've wasted enough time here let's get out of this assassination classroom" Rex said.
As they made their way through the hallways of the school Rex used his bracelet to contact George, "George, you there?" Rex asked, "What's up?" George replied. "Meet me in front of the school, we are going to the mech boxing arena."Rex said, "Alright, give me five minutes" George said before cutting the call.
Later the duo met George outside and Rex introduced Jonathan. "You didn't tell me you were bringing a friend." George said with a wide grin, "First of all this is Jonathan, He is new around here and he is also a noble. Secondly, this was your idea so don't act so surprised" Rex said.
"Sure it was my idea but I didn't think you would actually do it" George said, "I also said We are going, not I am going" Rex said, "I thought you were talking about you and I" George said with the grin still on his face. "I don't mean to interrupt but how long is this conversation going to last?" Jonathan said, "Sorry about that new kid, it's just that this guy here never wants to socialize, he's always cooped up in his room doing..." "Enough!" Rex cut George off.
"Jojo is right, we need to get going before the games begin" Rex said while avoiding eye contact. "Fine by me, Just get in the car" George said. A few seconds later the boys and the car disappear in a flash of blue light.
