As the lecture ended all the students who had other lectures went their way and new students entered to attend the [Beast Vitals] lecture.
I was free for an hour so I thought to do a quick little tour around the academy.
Lutors academy is huge and is mainly divided into 2 areas, one is for the first year and second years and the other is for the third and fourth years. It is mainly divided because from the third and fourth year onwards the classes are more specialized and thus would require more specialized facilities.
Time flew by visiting the most commonly used places as marked in the academy guidebook. Soon the time for my next lecture came [ World History].
I came to similar looking class. World history is a compulsory subject so the classes so are shaped like a lecture hall but every chair was installed with tablets through which we can login and save all notes directly under our personal accounts. And because of that, no student seats were allocated.
"Hey is this seat occupied," I asked as I went to the empty set near the corner.
"Ha, Ahiro you are back. Zale look your friend is back" said the boy in gold glasses.
Oh, Ahiro had friends in the academy. It's going to be complicated if this Zale identifies the difference in our behavior.
"Oh Ahiro, how are you? I heard you are having nightmares lately. Are you fine now?" said the boy who came backward to meet me. He was a little smaller than me and had brown hair. Seeing the dress under his clock I think he might belong to a rich family and he had a (D-) rank.
"Hey Zale, thanks for your concern I am fine now," I said stretching my hand forward to shake hands.
But something weird happened at that moment. It was as if my whole body started shaking and my back was drenched in sweat. It was as if I was watching my nightmare with open eyes. What is this?
"Ahiro what are you doing, get back in your seat" shouted the professor.
And I found that I was frozen stiff standing with my hands forward. I soon came to my senses and went to an empty seat at back. As soon as I sat. The old man who was the professor of our history class started his lecture.
But my mind couldn't concentrate on any word the professor said. The feeling of such fear I have only felt in my previous life when I was on verge of death.
How can I have fear of a boy who I didn't even know? No, it wasn't me but it was as it was this body's natural reaction, like an instinctive fear of death.
As I looked towards Zale who was setting on the first bench and replying to the professor's question like a modest student my feelings became more complicated and I knew for sure there is something wrong with this Zale. He is at least not a friend. So I decided to avoid him till I can get to bottom of this.
Soon the lecture got over and before anyone could approach me I left the room from the back door.
I had no free time so I soon left for my next class which is the last theory lecture [Wild Survival ].
This was a choice class so I went and sat on my opaque cube silently waiting for the lecture to start.
The lecture mostly consisted of an explanation of different types of herbs and fruits that can be commonly found, which could be eaten, and which should be avoided.
The thing of interest in this class was that signals of any kind don't reach within the forest so the basic identification function was not valid inside the forest and thus the need for this class was very apparent.
The professor for this lecture was apparently a great scholar and many of the herbs that he taught today were apparently researched by him. With this, I can tell how much effort is going into selecting each professor to provide the best lectures for students who would one day become warriors.
