"Good morning, Ven," Kye greeted him with a smile. "Did you sleep well?"
Ven just woke up, so his eyes were half-closed. And because of that, he had the impression that the person who talked to him wasn't human. "Why is there an angel in front of my bed?"
"Pfft, haha," Kye chuckled. "I'm not an angel, just Kye, your roommate."
Hearing what the angel said, Ven immediately stood up from his bed."Wait, what did I say?" His ears became red. He was ashamed of what he had just said.
"That I was an Angel?" Kye repeated what Ven said.
"I know what I said, you didn't have to remind me."
"Oh, my bad. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to anger you," Kye returned to his shy self and just looked down. He wanted to make a good impression, but he failed.
Alas, it was what he thought.
"No, wait. It wasn't what I meant," Ven quickly said since Kye seems to have taken what he said the wrong way. "What I meant is that I didn't want you to tease me about what I said. It was so embarrassing, so please don't look down like that. It really wasn't my intention to say that."
"Oh, you don't have to justify yourself, you know?" Kye answered with a smile. "What you said was totally normal, so you shouldn't explain yourself like this," He then began to head toward the room's door. Anyway, I will go now, see you later. And don't be late okay?" He smiled and then crossed the door.
Ven didn't have the time to say anything that Kye wasn't there anymore. He didn't understand what had happened. Kye looked fine, but Ven could tell that it was just a facade and that he didn't want to show what he thought or his emotions to him.
"Sh*t, why did I say that? He even greeted me and didn't avoid me," Ven said to himself. "Why did you have to open your mouth huh? F*ck"
Saying that Yugo began to wake up too. He didn't understand why Ven was cursing this early in the morning, but after the latter explained what happened, he understood.
"I think it would be hard to befriend him now. And I'm not saying just you, since I too did a mistake yesterday."
After saying that, the boys decided to hurry because Kye was a low level, and he would surely be in trouble if he was alone around that many high levels.
And they were right. Since Kye woke up quite early, he was one of the first who came to the academy canteen. There, the food was free, so he took what was pleasant to his eyes. He then picked a table randomly and began to eat.
But unfortunately for him, his problems were just about to begin.
After a few moments, a group entered the canteen. It was strange to already see some groups because no one was supposed to know each other in the academy since they had separated everyone.
There were a lot of kids, so it wasn't a problem.
The group then took their food, and since Kye was alone, they decided to disturb him a little. And when they saw that he was just a level 1 tr*sh, they didn't hold back. They began to beat him up, used abilities on him, and even took his money.
They did a lot of things, and not a single person came to help him.
And in the end, some staff came and bring him to the school hospital.
Everything just last for a few minutes, so when Yugo and Ven came to the canteen, they were surprised to not see him.
Though, when they heard the students gossip, they began to understand what had happened.
And since the group who had beat up Kye was still there, eating peacefully in the corner of the giant canteen, Yugo and Ven decided to show them something funny.
"Excuse me guys, do you have a moment?" Yugo came behind the biggest guy in the group and asked. The latter then turned around, only to be welcomed by a punch that seems to bend space to its will.
The big guy then flew away and hit the wall. His face was bleeding.
"What do you think you are doing right now?" One of the members of the group shouted. "Don't you guys know who we are?" All the group showed their watches, and it was indicating level 3 or 4.
Seeing that, Ven laughed very hard. "Pfft, HAHAHAHA, you must be kidding me, right?" He said as he too showed his watch. It was indicating level 6 and seeing that all the group understood what type of sh*t they were in.
Ven didn't wait for them to say anything or even move, he just pushed down the gravity upon them, and they all fell, face first of course.
"Wow, you got the gravity ability? That's cool," Yugo said with a smile while he walked toward those sh*tty bastards who beat up his friend.
"What are you talking about, bro? Yours is cooler. You have the spatial ability," Ven answered him as Yugo punched all the members one by one.
After a moment, everyone fainted, and people in the canteen were still talking about what had just happened.
"Well, should we go check how Kye is?" Yugo said.
"Sure, let me just grab some sandwiches for him. He must be hungry." Ven answered, and after picking up some food, both of them headed to the hospital.
During this time, Kye was still unconscious in his hospital bed. He wasn't aware of all the things that happened after he got transported here.
But even though he was still unconscious, he was still thinking of what happened inside of him. Or to be more precise, he was crying in his subconscious.
"I'm tired of all this sh*t," Kye shouted inside of him. Why do I have a system if I can't even defend myself? Why am I this useless? I want to stand for myself. I want to beat up those who beat me. I want... I want..."
Kye was crying and shouting inside of him, but nothing was happening outside. Though, after a certain moment, he finally woke up.
Only to be greeted by a system message.
[Additional quest: Throw at three punches at one of the members of the group.
Rewards: Instant level up]
'Only now?' Kye thought with a little bit of disgust. It would have been better if he was to have this quest earlier. "Well, system, if you gave me this, then I must do my best to accomplish it.'
As he thought that, he heard someone coming toward him.
"You're awake? That's perfect, just 10 minutes before classes begin. I'm glad you won't have to skip the first day," The nurse said with a smile and a gentle voice. She had black hair and green eyes. And based on the badge that was on her bo*om, Kye could see that her name was Valera Kale.
"How long did I pass out?" Kye asked.
"Only thirty minutes. And to be honest, I'm quite surprised," Valera said. "I only gave you first aid with my ability to not put any burden on your body, and you were supposed to be fully healed and wake up at lunch, but you just needed 30 minutes to fully heal and woke up. And that's is quite strange since you don't have any abilities."
Kye didn't answer at first because he was searching for something to tell her. He knew why he was already healed, but surely, he wouldn't tell her how.
"I"m used to be beaten up for a while now," Kye said as he came out of the bed.
"Poor kid," She said and patted his head. "I can't help you much, but if you need to recover or be healed, come here anytime, okay? My door will always be open," She smiled brightly.
Seeing her like that, Kye was a little taken aback. All the adults he had met until now were just abiding by the system, so it was the first time he saw one like this. And in the end, he smiled back and said, "Thank you for your generosity. I should go now." He then headed toward the door.
The moment he was about to open it though, someone opened it for him.
"Kye, you're here..." Ven said with a smile. Though, he came back to reality quickly. "No, how are you already standing when everyone said that you got beaten up to death?"
"Yeah, we wanted to welcome you when you were going to wake up," Yugo who was behind Ven added.
"Oh... well, I'm used to being beaten, so my body, plus the nurse's first aid were enough to wake me up." He settled with the same thing that he said to the nurse.
