Junya followed instructions and downloaded the school app on his new phone. After completing the installation, his school information showed up with a digital copy of his ID. This also showed him his balance which was zero, which he expected however it was for a different reason.
There was an event tab and his trial placement printed onto it. Showing the corresponding Rels that he earned.
"Damn, maybe I could have left Wenji and earned Rels and bought potions instead."
He moved over to the shop tab and viewed all the weapons and potions that they had.
[Stamina Potion - 700 Rels]
[Elo Resoration - 900 Rels]
[Health Potion - 300 Rels]
[Calm mind - 1100]
[Elo Pills 30,000]
The prices were insane. These prices were enough to buy nearly all the houses in Berger town. Everything that was in pill form caused many times more.
"Sucks to suck. I got 10,000 Rels for coming third, haha!" Wrenlow showed off his winnings on his phone as well. "You should spend any money now, I would save for an Encrypted weapon which is criminally overpriced."
"You don't say, could you tell me why you chose to choose the same room as me. I don't swing that way." Every step they took they attracted a lot of attention, both from boys and girls were not discreet in sneaking pictures."
"I don't get it, but I don't like swings either," Wrenlow answered unsurely. "Also, I simply joined the class for a challenge. Your blessing is something really cool, isn't it? I could tell, what is it?"
"I can't say"
"Hehehaha! I knew it! How about a fight and if I win you tell me!"
"I would lose"
"Well that's the thing, you won't be weak forever, so when you're strong enough, I will get a challenge. That's what my family always tells me"
"..." Junya looked at him weirdly. "Why do I give you that feeling?"
"Hmm, you give me an eerie feeling. That's why I looked at you when I was on the podium, my mind told me something about you and it's one thing I always trust and it's my head"
'Your head is the last thing I would trust'
Still, Junya was interested. "What kind of feeling did I give you."
"Hm, It wasn't anything special. I thought it was something ominous but when I looked it was just some kid with a pretty face, Hehehaha" Wrenlow wasn't one to care if others laughed at his joke and simply enjoyed himself.
"I think you're going to become quite a challenge that's it, I guess you could say I'm excited, Hehehaha"
"What if I turn out to be nothing special"
"Well, I'll find someone else. That's it" Wrenlow shrugged. Junya thought it was an understandable line of thinking. Besides, he couldn't really control what he would be doing, if it wasn't him, it would have been someone else.
"I don't want this much attention, the weird glances are killing me". Junya kept his head low and followed the map on his phone toward the dormitories, which were to the left of the main school building.
After taking a teleportation block, they arrived nearby their location. As they reached the block, it already had a lot of traffic going through the area.
The building was definitely large, large enough to hold even a thousand rooms, Junya guessed. The rectangular building, built from pure white marble, spanned a little less than a thousand metres in length.
This was only for one building.
"Since we are a part of 1st-year group A, we get this section, group B is over on the right. You only really see them if you have classes together."
"What about your deluxe sweet where is it and what makes it soo good"
"Hmm, the deluxe suites are located at the top of every dormitory. It takes up a good portion of the top floor and is furnished with the best luxury. It also has a lot of weapons and places to practice so that you can do everything"
"You really gave that up just to follow me around"
"As I said, I never doubt my mind. Besides, It's definitely worth it if I can get a challenge. Besides I want to live normal for once".
They both walked into the building at the same time, after which they walked into the elevator and headed to the highest floor.
"Hey, should we be worried about those guys taking pictures?"
"Eh, Nah, my sister taught me about the press. They will publish some weird articles and put them behind a paywall and drive a bunch of traffic and take all the money. She says I shouldn't be worried and we can't stop them from doing their job.
Excessive use of influence is dangerous. Many apex families fell off for such reasons."
"By the way, it's not peas, the word is pleasing"
"Wait, WHAT!"
***
After a short walk, they finally reached their room. A dark cloud loomed over Wrenlows head ever since a minute ago since Junya corrected him. He couldn't even imagine how many times he used the word, even in front of the class.
"Auhggg, how can I be so dumb!"
"Beats me, did you learn the word before coming here?"
"Yeah didn't you"
Junya looked at his face, before sighing and unlocking the dorm room.
Inside, they saw two beds that were on either side of the room. Lamps, plants and candles were carefully placed on the night table beside them.
After an initial sweep, they looked up, then around. The room was around 100 square feet of actual living space, from the ceiling hung a beautiful elegant chandelier giving the room a more fancy effect.
There was a bookshelf on both sides, filled with books pertaining to the outside world and the history of Mobs. There was a large variety not just limited to just that, even spanning to economics.
After a few minutes of looking around, Junya could see an intercom, which he assumed was there in case of emergency, a pantry-sized closet, a kitchen and a study area which would have to be shared.
"I thought there would be bunk beds…" Wrenlow gloomily sighed. "My people will come here and pack my closet, so I have nothing to do right now. You wanna check out the gym?"
"Do you lift?"
"1200 kg deadlift. That's my maximum until I reach a higher Elo rating"
Junya liked what he heard. He didn't mind working out, it was one of the few things he liked doing and was very fond of keeping his body escape. Yet, he declined.
"I want to read a few books first and test out my bed. Let's rest for a little before going, there we can wait on the class to start."
"That's fine, I'll qlash royal"
