Chapter 48 - Unexpected encounter

As Thomas sat in the class, he felt so bored that the system kept bugging him

[System requires action]

[System requires action]

Every time it does that, Thomas tells the teacher he is going to the toilet and drinks some of his wine.

"Gosh, I should have brought over more," he said as he was walking down the hall back to the classroom. "Oh yeah, during next class I'll just teleport home and take some."

Suddenly Thomas saw a student that was late for his class. That student got Thomas' attention. Unlike everyone else, he did not stare at him. Thomas' mutation was unique, so he was used to the stares even if he did not like that. The boy seemed very creepy. He had a smile from ear to ear and was humming some old-school classic song.

The moment that student got close to him, Thomas' survival instincts kicked in as he felt shivers down his spine. The student kept smiling, bowed, and greeted him.

"It's a beautiful day, is it not my fellow student?" the student said to him and kept walking.

"What the hell?" Thomas felt paralyzed for a moment. He felt like he knew this man. Also, he never felt such an oppressive aura ever since he reincarnated. "Who is this guy?"

Thomas stood and began staring at the cheeky guy. That student stopped walking, and Thomas got nervous that the student noticed him staring, however that student began inspecting paintings on the walls.

Thomas rushed into the classroom. He wanted to clear his head. But before that, he asked the system if it knows who was this person.

[Yes. This man's demon has 99,99% resemblance to the king of west Royan]

HIM??? WHY IS HE IN A HUMAN WORLD? WHY IS HE A HUMAN?

[Because of disturbance in heavens, demons like you accidentally entered reincarnation cycle]

"Does he know who I am?" Thomas felt nervous. He doubted if a fight broke out, he could defeat Royan. Especially the way Thomas is now.

[You're in luck. From the feelings Royan had, I sensed he had no interest in you. ]

"Ha... Ha... "Thomas laughed at the irony. He did not how to feel. Should he be happy? Or offended! But that doesn't matter. It's probably a good thing that he did not care about him.

The system, who is stronger right now, me or him?

[Because of an unknown error in his system, he already got most of his powers.]

"Why the hell did you not have this error?" Thomas accidentally shouted as he felt jealous.

[Unknown. Even Royan shouldn't be able to hack the system. Someone helped him]

Who?

[Someone who is at least as powerful as Royan at his peak.]

Wait. Wait, wait, wait! Is that person in a human world?

[Indeed. That being broke most of the locks that kept powers his powers sealed. ]

Is that bad?

[Well, Royan is doing pretty well in his reincarnation, but if it were you, you probably would have burned the entire city during your reincarnation. That's being expected. Royan, as a demon, was calm and collected. You were acting on instinct]

As Thomas was at a loss for words, he just entered the classroom and went back to his seat. He thought about the person he encountered and became worried. Will this ruin my perfectly normal life? Will Royan also try to stay human?

His sister, who sat near him, sniffed Thomas, pinched his arm, and whispered "Are you f****** drinking in school?!?]

"uh, well… Of course not. I am an outstanding student." Thomas blushed in embarrassment.

"Are you f****** serious? This is our first day at school!" his sister whispered as she went through her backpack gave him her perfume and some minty gum. "If you dare to f****** say this is a girl's perfume, I will kick you in the balls!"

Thomas was red out of embarrassment. He took her perfume and mint gum. Thought to himself "Stupid king and stupid school! why the hell she has to be sitting next to me!"

*At the same time in the same academy*

"Haha, I can't believe I've got lost," Drake laughed at himself. "I am so silly! I should have asked for the directions of that student I met in the hall"

Drake was walking around the school as he was humming his favorite classic song. He decided it was no use of rushing to class anymore because he was late for more than an hour. So he just relaxed and sat on the windowsill. He took out his phone and checked if the girl he saved yesterday was okay. She did not reply to him. Then he thought to himself. "Could it be she died because of my curse? I don't think she was this stupid. Well, that's just sad." Drake became sensually sad, and a tear formed below his eye. But soon he got a text back.

{Stupid Drake, stop spamming messages. I am in class, teacher almost took away my phone because of you!!!}

"haha, I am really silly, ain't I. I should have known she wouldn't reply at the same moment I texted. It's not telepathy! haha," Drake laughed at himself and got another message.

{BTW, where are you? The teacher is furious! You haven't been in her class yesterday as well!}

"Does this mean I am in trouble?" Drake thought to himself. His smile was even wider now. "Well, that's not good! I hope they'll forgive me. I truthfully forgot where the class is!"
