Chapter 12 - Class

Beep beep beep
awhn... it's already 6:55. drip stretched his hands as his tired eyes stared at his watch.
[Hp:45/50]
my hp seems to deplete slowly now that am a parasite, at least it's a good start right? drip was happy he wasn't going to be dying anytime soon as he got out from his bed.
leo! we'll be late for class get your lazy butt up. drip yelled at leo while he went and brushed his teeth...
he had finished brushing his teeth and came out of the small bathroom in the room as there was no reply from leo.
i wonder if he slept late? walking to the bed he climbed up and had his hand over the blanket on leo's bed.
maybe i should just let him rest for today.. but he'll probably be mad at me, i should just wake him.
hey le-. the blanket was empty as there were no signs of leo.
he's not here? when did he leave...
that boy really doesn't skip class even for a day... he shook his head as he walked out of the room and stopped as he looked down the corridor at room -G5.
after lunch...
he then locked his door with his card and headed to class running he didn't use his full speed as he was much faster now he was a parasite.
i'll have to check some things in the system when I've met with billy. i think they're some new skills i unlocked...
he arrived at class in about 4 minutes as he entered he noticed the class was already full with students sitting and chatting.
where's leo, i can't sense him anywhere here... he went and took his seat at the far end of the class beside the empty seat of leo pt jack entered a few second later with files in his hands, they got up and bowed before taking their seats.
listen up everyone i have just received some news regarding a student of this class, the student by the name of leo nex will not be attending class for a week now due to some minor issues so he has been escorted by some military personnels to resolve the issues.
what issues... they couldn't have found out about klitz death unless billy sold me out. drip was wondering where leo was at the moment as his mind was not at rest.
sir do you know what issues he had. drip asked with a worried look
i don't know the details, as it's confidential but i don't think it's anything serious, don't worry i know leo's your friend and he's also a good kid he'll be back soon. drip could sense pt jack was hiding something from him but decided not to further on.
i'll have to wait until he gets back...
ok everyone today we'll be learning about why the military was formed during the first war against the dargon's and how the world was saved by the seven power houses.
dargons. mumurs began to erupt as students were whispering all sort of things to each other.
i heard the dargons had the shape and appearance of humanoid wolves...
yeah and the higher the number of tails the stronger the dargon....
my uncle said the last number of tails the seven power house took down was a four tailed dargon...
yeah the seven power houses are so powerful, i wish i'll get the park's house fire ability...
drip's hearing was just picking up words about this so called dargons and the seven power houses he had never heard about until now
that park name sure rings a bell. drip could've sworn he heard that park name sometime ago when he joined new.
alright everyone that's enough chit-chatting it's time for class. he then proceeded to open the two brown coloured files he held as he brought out White sheets of papers.
take one each and pass the rest onwards. the student at the front was a blonde haired girl with blue eyes she took a piece each and passed soon it reached drips side as he took the last pieces each.
read the contents of the papers and try to memorize it, it may be helpful to you in the future, i'll be back in an hour to explain. with that he left the classroom as some students were deeply reading the contents some were playing with the papers by making paper planes.
i wonder what's in here...
about an hour later pt jack entered the class with another set of papers in his hands as he collected the first two and handed out the new one's.
that was a brief history on how the military academy came into existence and how the world was saved from the dargons by the seven power houses, now you have about 30 mins to answer all the questions in the paper...
points will be allocated to you based on your performance, now you may begin... he then started patrolling the class, looking at some students who were busy writing, which he smiled and nodded his head.
reaching the ones who didn't even look at the papers, he shook his head and walked past as he stopped at drip's side, he looked at drip's work before walking past him and leo's empty seat glancing at it before heading to his seat.
something doesn't feel right here, i hope leo's ok...
alright everyone times up. he collected all the papers and placed them one his desk .
this was merely just an assessment to test you on history...
i know, many of you might be wondering why i did that without lecturing you first, well as military students you have to be alert always so that's by the way it's story time.
he then sat down on his desk as he was about to narrate the story of the first war everyone eyes were on him even that strange blonde girl had her eyes fixed on him.
ehhm... long ago during the time where there were no abilities or powers humans lived in a peaceful society with rules but one day something happened a burst of energy occurred in the earth giving humans unique powers and abilities, that energy is called mana.
humans couldn't quite control or understood this power but with time they began to adapt until something came down from the sky one day it was a strange ship and out came the dargons killing many humans like flies until a group of special individuals who could control their abilities well came together and fought the dargons killing them tho at the cost of many lives lost as well.
so they decided to teach people their abilities and also record their abilities in books so that future generations could learn and utilize such powers...
so how was the military formed... a dark haired boy with glasses asked .
well we humans can be greedy and corrupted at the taste of power, some people rebelled claiming all the power for themselves, which is why the seven group of special individuals set up a system, for everyone to abide by the law that's how the military was formed with the seven power houses still standing if need be...
so the military academy was also formed not long after... the blonde haired girl asked, in a soft voice that left many guys drooling.
yes that's right Kira, the military academy was formed to help students harness, their abilities and give the earth ability to those who doesn't have...
i see...
i hope you all now know why you are here, the hunt is in a week and four days so you better use your Saturdays and Sundays to train cause you're gonna need it.
the bell rang indicating class was over as they all dismissed to the canteen.
drip was searching for billy all over the place as he noticed students from other classes were in the canteen so the amount of crowd in there was just too much but the space was thrice as much.
drip then sensed billy sitting at the far end of the canteen slurping in some soup besides him was a black black as he approached the latter trying not to seem suspicious.
you came in time...
drip was pondering in his mind if he should challenge billy and ask him if he sold him out.
did you sell me out...
what! Billy spit the soup back in as some people thought that was disgusting glaring at him.
y-you think i sold you o-ut...
i really don't see why you wouldn't billy your just trying to survive...
if i sold you out i wouldn't be sitting down here with you, it's your choice if you choose to believe me but i, intend to keep my word and help you out.
thinking about it billy was right if he had indeed sold drip out military personnels would've been on him.
but why did they take leo. drip couldn't help but think in his mind.
am sorry for accusing you wrongly. drip apologized to billy who nodded his head.
i understand you, it's nothing...
now back to the main thing i did some digging in the library and there wasn't a single thing on parasites so i went to the net but i didn't find much either...
drip just sighed as he was expecting this kind of a thing even he would be surprised if there was information on parasites on the net...
i'll keep on looking drip am sure we'll find something...
it's ok Billy take your time... his eyes then went to the black bag besides billy
emm billy what's in that black bag over there...
oh this... it's just your snack whenever you know your HP's low or just feel like having one for fun...
i-i see..
he then handed the black bag to drip as he stood up and left, the latter looked at the bag weirdly before equipping it in his front as he headed to his room.
