It's has been a week since the awakening incident and everyone's life has returned to the same as it was before the awaking.
Including mine but with slight change it's now calm, without the bullying and my life has turned into a peaceful one.
People have started ignoring me and with no one to bother me, my once dark and gloomy life has become a sunny and pleasant one.
But I know that It's only peaceful for now because the truth about my condition has been concealed and only known by a handful of people.
Other than that, I also still have this feeling that this is a false harmony and everything is about to take a turn for the worse.
But even so, right now except for me, the people of 'the Temple' and a few higher-ups in the 'academy', no one knows about me being a cripple.
And since no one was supposed to find the truth, the people of the temple and the priestess have come up with a new story to cover up the actual truth.
And according to the story of the priestess, because of my behavior at the temple, the gods have decided to punish me and curse me.
They asked me to do so because with this excuse they can probably keep the problematic otherworlders in control from being reckless.
But I know that there is some other catch for the story and the real reason is certainly far from the excuse they provide me but what can I say? I need their protection and they need an excuse, that's all we need for the deal.
So with that now, I have officially gained a new title of the 'cursed one' from the priestess of the temple of dawn.
Oh yeah by the way I came to learn about the name of the temple it's called the Temple of the dawning sun, Temple of dawn for short.
Leaving the name aside....
Even though I frankly don't understand what this title of 'cursed one' really means but since the young priestess wanted me to bear this title I am sure there has to be something else to this title that I don't know.
And I really wanted to verify it with the help of some of the 'chosen' or someone who can at least read the language of fantasia.
But after the incident at the awakening ceremony and the rumors about me being a 'cursed one ' started spreading like a wildfire.
Now, both otherworlders and the Fantasians have started to avoid me, and for the worst, the fantasians have even started treating me like a plague. If they were to even see my shadow in the corridor they would rather wait or outright directly change lanes.
But since people have started avoiding me my life has been peaceful with no one bothering me and the higher-ups of the 'academy' have even allowed me to access the library and to train like the other people from the earth.
They even promised to provide me with an alternate solution for me after the candidate training sessions gets over or will least support me with normal and peaceful life as a citizen of one of the fantasian nations.
Even though it may not be possible for me to become a legendary hero but at least, live a normal and happy life like mom always wanted me to be.
If you ask whether there is any regret for me in this new life, yeah there are, I miss my mom.
Seems like I will be at least able to fulfill the first half of my mom's dream but to fulfill the second half, that is to open a 'trust' to help the poor, I need money.
The people of the Temple of dawn have promised me a limited sum of money as a retirement fund. So with that and little backing from them, I have planned to start a business in this world.
But before anything else, I should be able to speak, read, and write the language of the fantasians. Because I can't be going around showing that I'm not a native by not even begin able to speak the language properly.
I have asked for a language tutor but the 'Academy' has not yet replied to my request and I'm still using the old records as references to learn the language.
And during this entire week, my morning has been free since I don't need to take classes like the 'chosen' candidates for their professions, I have been using that time to improve my language, and knowledge about this new world.
It's not like I am bunking the morning class entirely if the classes are about monsters or if it is about the kingdoms and their history I would attend them.
Even though I actually couldn't comprehend the language but that doesn't still stop me from attending those classes.
Because if someone wants to begin and run a successful business, in any world knowledge about the political standard of that place is as important as the knowledge about the market standards of the place.
But unlike the morning classes, the afternoon and evening classes are a must for everyone.
And so my afternoons are like everyone else, I have to attend the training class with the others.
And for this secession, we are being trained by the Elite guards in the academy.
Even though it is called training secession it's more of a physical education class than actual training.
Because all we do is run, jump, and few exercises, a few minutes of rest, then once again run, jump and do a few more exercises, rest and then again the same routine.
And day by day the defaults and the length of those activities have been increasing as well. So some people couldn't actually keep pace with the increasing activities.
Even though the people were complaining about the routine at the start but after a few days, we can actually visibly see the changes that our bodies have gone through.
Within a week our bodies have already become more robust and athletic, we easily feel the improvement in our stamina and strength.
The exercise routine every day continues until the time for our evening classes.
The evening is also compulsory for all because there is no need for any mana magic in this one, but it's still a must if you have to be someone great in this world.
Our evening class is all about etiquette and other miscellaneous knowledge such as art, music, and other cultural stuff that are famous in this world.
Even though most people in a group are from a high-class society but they are still from a high-class society in the modern era. Which is quite different from the Victorian era type culture of this world.
And since the rest of the group actually have zero to no knowledge about this stuff, so everyone must and was compulsorily made to attend these classes.
And since I aim to become a successful businessman and to become one I should be able to attend and host these high-class parties and for this reason alone I have no objection about the class being mandatory and I have been attending these classes with no complaints.
After our evening classes, we are would have our dinner at the academy's cafeteria, and with that our day is almost over, we are free to do whatever we want until bedtime.
And for the night we are provided with rooms in the school dormitory and thus our days have been going peaceful for the entire week but I have a feeling that this is just 'A clam before the storm'.
