After the girl left ... he went to boy's locker room .. and took a hot shower .. that lasted for 30 minutes and now only had 30 minutes of lunch ..
but he was quite satisfied with his progress today ...
food couldn't matter that much ..
finding his way to the canteen .. he swiped his card and got himself some food so he could quench his current hunger ..
he saw an empty table in the corner ... he then walked up to it and sat down and began eating ...
piece after piece ... but was still not finished .. this was the type of Terminus .. that he liked ..
being noble and all gallant ...
as he was busy minding his business and enjoying his lunch ... a group of three came to his table ..
two guys ... one with a friendly smile .. and the other neutral ... and a girl in the middle ... wearing a long dress reaching under her knees ..
there was a bashful expression on her face as she walked towards the table ...
when the three arrived ... they did not immediately sit down .. instead the one who held a friendly expression took the initiative to hold his hand out and greet the guy infront of them ..
"Hi ... the name's Samson ... my friends call me Sam ... we're from the same class ... nice to meet you .?" Terminus looked at the group before his gaze fell on Sam's hand ..
in a respective way ... he held out his hand .. and shook the latter's ..
"Mind if we sit ..??" Terminus shook his head and returned to eating his lunch ... with a small bite ..
"I'm Terminus ... nice to meet you as well ... " he spoke after finishing his lunch and focused his attention at the group ...
"Good .. good ... this is Larry and Andy ... " the two nodded at Terminus ...
the latter nodded back .. "So ..?? what's this all about ... you've already finished your lunch .. why are you sitting here .. shouldn't you be in class ..??" Terminus inquired ... as the Andy and Larry looked at Sam at the same time ..
"We're just trying to make friends .. all over the school .. and you are the first on our list ... you're quite eye-catching .."
"Plus .. we've heard from one of the teachers that you were some kind of a special student .. so I thought why not ... this guy is really interesting .. let's pull him over to the team ... " Samson smiled and Andy nodded to his words ..
Terminus ... had a lot of information regarding these kinds of things ..
the Modig race were never the kind of race to care for feelings nor did they have any feelings nor emotions to play with in the first place ..
infact .. in his entire life in the Modig world .. he had never heard of a family caring for a genius lovingly ... much less ... a normal Modig citizen ..
feelings couldn't develop for them .. it was such a case ... of course .. things like smirking existed .. laughter of mockery ... however all of these things .. were just mimicked to how the real thing would be like ..
and from earth's info .. he found out about relationships .. such as friendships and many in the category ..
these relationships wouldn't be that beneficial to him ... they wouldn't even be as fun as reading books and fooling all around being a nerd .. and within the info .. there were these so-called 'fake friends' ... apparently these friends would take him for granted and would never even consider their current relationship ..
and with his progress in fitting in with the humans and even learning combat techniques .. he could see himself as a major powerhouse .. and with these three .. it wouldn't be that good to let them be friends with him ...
it could destroy his brain .. this wouldn't be fair .. and acceptable judging from all of the work he had done ...
but even so ... some people weren't that idiotic and that desperate to earn benefits from the other person ..
letting them become friends with him would again become good ..
so he could only contemplate in his head ... he was an intelligent being in this entire world aside from God ..
but even so .. he couldn't read emotions .. nor could he read one's feelings .. and peeking into one's future wasn't that polite .. that's what he taught himself ..
with a sigh .. he couldn't come up with any better idea and just gave the group a nod ..
"Sure I'll be your friend ..." Samson smiled even more brightly ..
"Now that you're our friend .. feel free to call me whatever you want to call me .. Come on you guys don't be shy and introduce yourselves to Terminus .." Andy smiled at Terminus but didn't say anything ..
Terminus felt that this was an awkward situation .. so he could only say "Hi ..."
"Hi .. Terminus ... I .. I hope we .. we get to know each other better .. let's be great friends o .. okay .." she gathered up her courage and finally said to Terminus .. puffing out her cheeks .. with her hands ... as her face reddened ..
"Sure .. Andy .. was it ..?"
the latter nodded with a smile ..
Terminus held his hand out to her and said in a polite manner .. "Nice to meet you .. " Andy shook his hand with reluctance ..
"I'm Larry ... it's sure nice to meet you .. it's going to be great to have another member like you in the group .." Larry said with a smile and nodded at Terminus ..
"Sure ... I'm going to take my tray back to the old perspicacious madam ... there .." the three were struck .. hearing the unfamiliar word ..
and this guy's accent .. why was it so old English ..??
it was odd hearing a person speaking in that kind of accent at this time of age ..
unless he came from a family speaking like that ..
however when they thought more about it .. this guy didn't even look like an English man ...
he looked more like a native American ...
and that term he just used was just way above their understanding ... Pers .. what???!
the three followed behind Terminus as he returned back the tray and walked out of the canteen heading to their class ...
with a bold golden number written on top ..
"Class 7"
and beside the door was something like a PDQ terminal .. but a bit more with technology advancements ..
Terminus put in his card and a ding sound resounded on the door projecting a large blue no. 20 ..
[Welcome Back Mr Terminus Modig ..]
the female robotic voice said ..
the door than opened with a slide ...
and the three who followed behind him could only watch as it closed ..
afterwards they took out their cards and put them into the terminal ..
and since the teacher wasn't in the class as of now .. the students were busy fooling around just like in the morning ..
Blake with his girlfriend Mary ... sitting with their group member Terrance ..
giggles resounding in the class ..
Terminus went to his seat at the top at the back without even noticing that Jessica was eyeing him secretly ..
he buried his head in his hands and took a nap ... as they only had at least 15 minutes before the teacher would show up ..
he took this time to go through all of the things that had happened and that had yet to happen according to scientific analysis he had made ..
from the internet ... to reality ... fantasies and novels .
he had to admit that the novels here were rather special from the novels in the Modig race ..
each earthly novel had that kind of feeling that would make you ecstatic .. that would make one feel the need to read throughout the entire novel .
.. whilst the Modig novels were replicated from their reality and life situations ..
and all of them related to science ....
in his head .. he could only reflect on the life here on earth and how people here do things .. in a better intelligent way ..
the two races had their differences ..
for example .. the Modig race .. were a race that daily created new inventions and each had an ability that made them smart .. this was the norm trait for every Modig ..
infact their trait and abilities could only be considered as cheats .. when compared to humans ..
humans had different ideas .. smart intelligent ideas .. that they could only make up theories for .. and apparently all of their ideas were even more advanced than the inventions the Modig race daily came up with ..
it was as if like .. this earth .. was a parallel universe in which traits weren't there ..
they used and racked their heads to make up an invention that even the Modig race weren't able to think of ..
and judging from the Modig race's history .. he found out that .. whatever invention they made .. it would always be the same as the one that existed in the past ..
and after all this time .. this was his first discovery that even the higher-ups of the Modig world failed to research or think of ..
and if that was the case .. then whatever invention they came up with .. it will always turn out to be a form of the relic of the past ..
and humans ... humans always found an idea everyday .. they try to do the impossible ... they liked taking risks .. and this was what fascinated him more ..
in terms of advanced technology .. he would put the Modig race on top .. however when coming to ideas .. humans had the best of them ..
"Hey .. dude .. " and again .. there they are standing before his table .. Samson's hands on his table .. and the other two standing close to each other like he remembered ..
"What ..??" Terminus asked them .. his eyelids constantly fluttering ..
"Since we still have 12 minutes .. how about we catch up on something random .. as friends .." Samson said ..
"Sure what do you want to catch up on. ..? daily gossip ? " Andy chortled .. covering he mouth with her small hand ..
"Nah .. leave that .. how about .. we talk about the training we're going to have ...?" Terminus's ears perked up ...
"Eh ..?? training ..?"
"Yes .. I heard from one of the students from class 1 .. that their teacher told them that they were going for training in 12 minutes .. and they're not the only ones .. apparently .. all of the classes will be coming .."
