I look around the airship and see Lawrence from afar and sat next to him.
"So, what caused you to look so terrible?"
"Oh? I just had a small accident while taking the test, don't worry about it" I lied to him because telling the truth is just too bothersome.
"Anyway, how did your group perform?" I ask Lawrence.
"We did fine, we got 2 golden crests, one from a team leader and one from a teacher"
"Nice, that should be enough to secure a high grade"
"I hope it is, what about you?"
"Oh, well we achieved like 4 silver crests but an accident happened making us lose it all"
"That sucks, what was the accident?"
"Well, let's just say sometimes shit happens"
"You are really not planning to tell me what happened?"
I really don't want to tell Lawrence because as far as I know, the teachers wanted to investigate the appearance of a Wolfman in secret and didn't want the students to know that there was a security breach that happened during the exam.
"Nope,"
"Any reason why?"
"It-its embarrassing" a small blush was present on my face although I sneakily hide it from Lawrence
The Sword Chant, many powerful people in my old world made their own.
There were some that kept theirs a secret, there were some that openly flaunt it, there were some that were weak and there were some that were extremely powerful.
But there was one condition for a weak person to be able to wield their teachings, and that is to be synchronized with their teachings.
"But why?" I thought to myself while my face was getting noticeably redder
"WHY DO YOU NEED TO RECITE A POEM TO BE SYNCHRONIZED WITH THEM? I AM PERFECTLY FINE TO WRITHE IN PAIN EVERY TIME I RECITE A POWERFUL ONE BUT WHY DO I NEED TO RECITE A POEM" I screamed in my mind.
"I am 30 years old mentally and to say stuff like that was embarrassing," I thought to myself.
I look to my side and see Lawrence looking at me with a confused face
He quickly brushes it off and the airship now was starting to ascend to the sky and make its way back to the school.
The trip was uneventful as soon as we got back Lawrence and I made our way to our room and slept the night soundly as we were tired from the test.
The next day the classes then continued.
I got inside the classroom early as usual.
I open the door and make my way to my seat.
"Hey" I heard a voice from my side
I look to the side expecting Lawrence but it was the black-haired beauty Mellissa
"Hi?"
"Mind if I sit here?"
I looked at the room most of my classmates were now staring at me and Mellissa.
"I actually do, I don't like the stares our classmates are giving me right now" I whispered to her
She was slightly surprised and nodded to me and then she made her way back to her original seat.
I rest my head on the table to ignore the stares that were being sent to me.
"Fuck, me those stares could kill," I thought to myself
After a while, I felt someone patting me on the back.
I look to the side and see Lawrence.
"It's almost 8 am, Ms. Melinda will be here soon"
I fixed my posture and looked around and noticed that the people giving me gazes earlier has stopped.
I let out a sigh of relief.
The class then continued, as usual, thankfully it appears that people have already forgotten about me.
The class then ended and was about to leave the classroom and return to my room.
"Can I talk with you for a bit?" A voice that had confidence and power in it was directed at me.
I look to the person who uttered it and It was none other than Jack Osborne.
"Oh, fuck me," I thought to myself before replying to him.
"Sure"
"Alright, follow me"
Me and Jack went outside the class and made our way to his room.
Jack's room was undeniably beautiful, it was filled with expensive-looking furniture fitting for a noble, and instead of a bunk bed, he had one grandeur bed.
"Sit" He ordered me while pointing to a chair in his room.
I sat down on the chair
"Kayn"
I look at him
Every word he spoke and every move he made was full of elegance.
"Tell me how you did it"
"hmm?"
"Tell me how you a lowlife commoner scum like you made the Mellissa Luna acknowledge you"
With one sentence the elegance and nobility he radiated were no more
"I mean I can't believe it, I am the Jack Osborne, I have the power, the wealth but she won't even look my way, you, on the other hand, have nothing, yet she acknowledges you, so tell me scum, how'd you do it?"
I was appalled, I cannot believe my own eyes that the Jack Osborne that beamed with nobility could act this way.
I stood up from my chair and proceeded to approach him.
He was looking at me with mocking eyes.
"Sir Jack, All I did was perform really well in the examination and she was thankful for me about it, there was nothing more to it than that" I reply to him as I bow to show respect.
"hmmm, alright, it appears that you have manners for a lowlife like you and that it seems to be a good reason"
He then opens the door
"Kayn, make sure that none of the matters we discussed leave this room and I would prefer that you stay away from Mellissa," He said to me with a dignified smile.
I was briefly shocked at how fast he was able to change his act.
I bowed again
"Understood Sir Jack" and proceeded to leave the room.
I let out a sigh of relief
"I hope that guy will ignore me now," I thought to myself as I make my way back to my room.
