Right now, it is night time and the moon is visible in the sky from the window, right now Arjun is in his dormitory and laying on his bed and one book is in his hand
He is right now reading that book and learning everything for his midterm exam that is going to start tomorrow, but he is flipping every page in ten seconds, it was looking like Arjun is acting and is not remembering anything
It was nighttime and most of the students were in their dormitory, most students were preparing for their exam
After reading the book for fifteen minutes he closed the book and set up on his bed and stretched his back
[ now...I am ready for tomorrow's exam ]
Arjun said that with smiled and looked at the moon from the window, The moon was bright and shining at night and suddenly one person's voice came from the opposite side bed
[ really!? I wonder about that ]
it was Frey, he was lying on the other bed and resting on his elbow and looking at Arjun with grine, he thought that Arjun didn't study much, was just flipping pages
Arjun turned to Frey and looked at him and smiled, frey got surprised and his smile vanished after looking at Arjun Grine, then Arjun said
[ then let's make a bet, who will get a higher grade will win ]
Frey then hurriedly sat on his bed, turned to Arjun and said to Arjun while looking at him with a smile, his smile was so big that you could call that grin, he was most probably making fun of Arjun in his mind
[ okay!...but what will the winner get? ]
Frey asked Arjun then Arjun raised his right hand and showed three fingers, frey looked at his hand and after looking at his hand he didn't understand what he meant, he looked at Arjun
Then Arjun said
[ The loser will have to obey three orders that the winner said to him. Of course, the loser can refuse if the given order is unreasonable ]
After Arjun finished his words, Frey thought for a few seconds, then he smiled and said, he thought his victory was a promise and that is why he accepted this bet
[ Okay ]
Arjun smiled at his words and thought in his mind
( bingo!! )
Arjun was celebrating his victory, poor Frey, didn't know that Arjun was using cheat to study
[ okay, it is late, now we should sleep ]
[ yes, I can't wait that day when I will give you the order ]
Arjun said to Frey and lay on his bed Frey turned off the lights and both went to sleep
* * *
It is right now daytime and a hundred students are in class and sitting in seats, one week has passed since Arjun and Frey made a bet and today's result will announce, they both are also sitting in seats and waiting for the professor to come
[ hey Arjun, what do you think about who will win? ]
Frey who was sitting with Arjun turned to him and asked, he was smiling evilly, it was clear that he was celebrating his victory before the result was even announced and thinking of various orders he should give to Arjun
[ I don't know, I just hoped we both scored great ]
Arjun turned to Frey and said with a Genuine smile on his face
[ even if you act like a good friend to me, I will not forget about the bet ]
Frey said to Arjun while laughing When they were talking, the professor suddenly came into class and the class became silent after he entered
Then the professor came to his place and said
[ your mid-term exam result is checked and you will get your grades. . . ]
Suddenly the professor stopped in the middle of his words and looked at his wristwatch then returned to the cadets and continued his words
[ . . . In ten seconds ]
When the professor said that, everyone's attention turned to the big clock that was on the wall and everyone started to count in their mind
( 10. . . 9. . . 8. . . 7. . . )
The whole academy was silent but you could feel counting that is going on in everyone's mind, which was also going on in other classes
( 6 . . . 5. . . 4. . . )
The professor was also standing still and waiting for counting to stop, every one heartbeat was loud and I could hear even a heartbeat from around me
( 3. . . 2. . . 1)
This will decide your ranking and based on the ranking your future will decide after all
( and. . . 0 !! )
When everyone stopped counting on zero in their mind, I could see Ron, he was looking right and left when he was looking at his surroundings, KUSU told him with her hand gesture to wait
[ tu..tu..pip..pip..ting..ting ]
Then suddenly Everyone's phone started ringing and suddenly the class became noisy and this not only happened in our class but in other classes too, the student's phones make sudden noise in the whole academy and the whole academy was full of phone noises
Then every cadet took out their phone from their pocket and I and frey also took out our phones to check because our phones are also ringing and making noise and we checked our phone
One message was sent to my phone from the academy and I opened that message to read that, everyone also clicked that message to open the academy message just like me and Frey was also doing the same
[ hi cadet Arjun, we have sent this message to inform you, your midterm exam sheet is checked and here is your midterm exam result ]
Below was my result, everyone also received that message from the academy on their phone just like me
[ okay, I am sure you all have received your mid-term exam result on your phone, now I will announce your ranking ]
Everyone's attention returned to the professor
And he continued his words
[ before admission, your ranking was on kingdom level but now it will be on academy level, this academy has a total of 500 cadets each year and each year has 5 classes in it so one class carried 100 cadets in it, your raking will in between 1 to 500 ]
Most of the students knew about this, even me and Frey, just our protagonist was looking surprised
( it was normal, he didn't give an interest in something he wouldn't find good for him )

After the professor finished class was still silent and I and Frey were also quiet the professor continued after a few seconds
[ That's it, these rankings were based on your mid-term exam, recent dungeon task was also for determining your ranking but unfortunately, that task got cancelled this time ranking was decided only on IQ ]
Everyone was listening to the professor, some had sad faces after the professor mentioned the recent dungeon task but the professor continued
[ but your ranking will be arranged again after 6 months so be prepared for that ]
When the professor finished the academy bell rang and the first period finished
[ Okay today we didn't get to study in the first period but the other period will proceed like normal ]
The professor went out the calls, when the professor went Arjun turned to Frey and looked at him with grine and said
[ now what order should I give you now ]
Frey looked at Arjun with an awkward smile and said, he was sweating and rubbing his hand together, looking at Arjun with preying eyes
[ can we forget about that bet ?]
Arjun didn't say anything to him just kept grinning, frey understood that it was clear that Arjun will not be going to forget about the bet, and Arjun was also evilly smiling
[ I think that's No ]
Frey said turning his head down disappointed the next professor came and the second period start and everyone started to study
