After the ceremony I checked my phone and found that I was in the same class as the main lead. I didn't care about them as I searched for the name of John in the list.
[Class A]
Rank 1. Livia Roman
Rank 2. Harold Light
…..
Rank 5. Zen Sylvicous
Rank 13. Sophia Alex
....
Rank 28. Frank Alice
...….
Rank 485 Loreen Hermes
...…..
Rank 548 John Smith
" Thank god, I don't like being alone in a class where no one knows who I am"
I kept searching for my name until I found my rank....
Rank 1749. Arthur Riverblood
Yikes…. There were only 2000 students in the freshman year. As I thought my rank was trashed because they measured my talent before I transmigrated.... that sounds hilarious... anyway, before I got into this novel.
" they are still together"
I had a small doubt that things might change, but thankfully it is the same.
" dude, what are you spacing out for?"
'Appearing out of no where' John asked, so I replied after holding the urge to punch him for scaring me.
" we are in the same class "
Looking surprised, John replied with a smile " For real dude? How did you know?"
'Showing the email to him' his smile grew more as he said
" bro it is fate we are meant to be friends… you know? like besto frendos"
'Staring at this idiot' I had a weird thought that maybe…..I shouldn't celebrate being in the same class as him…
" yeah…sure"
" anyway let's go check our class"

I entered the class together with John and picked the left corner in the back.
As we sat down, more and more students started to enter the class. I felt a bit sleepy due to sitting without doing anything for more than an hour in the ceremony. I decided to take a small nap to refresh my energy and focus better on class.
" and like that I knocked out the bear with my strong body…. Wait are you asleep?… tsk…what a friend…."
Out of the blue, a devious smirk appeared in Johns face as an idea popped inside his head.
"wait if he sleeps during class then the professor will probably….. hehehe… that's what you get for ignoring me. I will not wake you up…hehehe"
.

Yawn~
I woke up after like 15 minutes and luckily the professor just got in as I just woke up. I looked around and found John staring at me like a dead fish.
" what's wrong?"
I said to check why he had such an expression.
Replying in an annoyed tone, John said.
"N-nothing, I was about to wake you up dude.. you almost slept in class"
I was surprised. He truly was a friend to heart.
" thanks John I knew that I could rely on you"
Somehow his annoyed expression turned into a regretful one as he replied.
" Y..yeah bro we are friends HaHaHa..ha…?"
Interrupting our small chit chat was the sound of the professor. He was a black and bald middle aged man with tall stature and had a strong physic that reminded me of a famous wrestler in my previous world.
" Greetings, I am Hero ranked 237 of the association, Mike Gorge an S rank tanker. I will be your ' Physical Education' teacher and also the one assigned to your class. If there's anything you would like to ask or know, my office is in the second floor."
"....."
" Enough with the unnecessary talk, I don't like wasting time so let's start the class. Meet me at the training ground outside after 5 minutes"
As soon as professor Mike said those words, he left the class.
The whole class went silent as there were no words to say.
I muttered in a low voice " I almost forgot… of all professors it was this meat head"
Fortunately, whether he heard me or not, he left right after his intro. Other classes probably are having it easy with their first class, but mister Mike is called a muscle freak due to his crazy square pixel like-physique . Since I already have a D rank strength, at least I will have it better than the others.

" Huff...Huf..
Isn't this….. too much for the first day?"
Many students could be seen scattered at the ground in the middle of the training grounds. If one just saw them without knowing what happened, they would assume that there was a war with some terrifying creatures.
" This is pathetic…." A tall black man could be seen in the middle of the training ground. Mark wasn't pleased with the performance of the students.
" Back in my days we used to do that with huge boulders above us"
In a single hour, mark made us experience continuous hell without stopping at all. It was a bother even for me. Except of course the main lead. They seemed unbothered at all.
" at least some of you aren't weaklings"
Ting~
Tong~
" well that's for today's class, now you can go back to your classroom. Afternoon break will start after your class with miss Amelia"
"…."
Huh?
"….Amelia??"
But How? She isn't supposed to teach for now. Did something happen??
" What's going on? "

In one of the offices at the second floor of the Magical Academy,
" Sigh….. Just how did things change so quickly?"
Amelia suddenly was assigned to become a professor at the magical academy. She was previously an A rank hero, but due to the last mission she performed an outstanding job. She got a sudden mission from the association. Although she wasn't informed of the details, she still followed the orders. Using her charming artifact, she managed to capture many A rank criminals and helped in arresting some S rank villains that were hiding in an illusionary dimension created by an S rank witch named Helda. There were many powerful heroes involved, and because of her great achievement she got promoted into an S rank hero although her power was still at the peak of A rank.
She was astonished of the sudden promotion . Even some of the S rank heroes told her that she had great potential that's why she got promoted after showing off her abilities.
" But I want to go back in my peace. Urghh"
'Acting like a child' miss Amelia was tired because of the busy last three days.
Everything went very fast, and a lot has changed. Once a hero becomes an S rank they have the opportunity to teach at the greatest academy. Not only will they receive a lot of gold, but they will also have access to more knowledge and build connections with other heroes.
All were positive changes for her, but all the childish woman wanted was a cup of beer and chill alone peacefully.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
" Y-yes, Come in"
a short pink haired women entered the office.
" Hooh, Are you playing around In your first day?"
a teasing smile appeared in the face of the pink haired woman as she made fun of Amelia.
" Lisa, I told you to stop bothering me. Get out please"
" are you sure? Shouldn't you be the one to get out and go teach the dear students right about...
Ting~
Tong~
…..Now?"
Lisa James, an S rank hero professor of class ' weapon arts '. In the novel, she was famous for her twisted personality. Bubbly and happy around the heroes. Sadistic and evil around the villains. The readers called her a ' a two face devil '. Even though she seemed nice, she is a actually the leader of the assassination group in the Lexun merchant group. She and Amelia were friends for quite the time for now, and hearing that her friend has joined the academy was a bliss for the bored professor.
" Alright you got me there, anyway are you sure of that intel?"
Lisa responded while nodding in defeat.
" yes, I heard that from the leader himself. There was a mythic grade item involved for sure"
Thinking of what she heard Amelia nodded In affirmation.
" I think so too, after all a single mission wouldn't promote someone immediately. It must have been a bigger issue than what it seemed."
Both Lisa and Amelia remembered a terrifying SS rank pressure that sent shivers down their spines.
" Did you see the patriarch of that elite family? He was terrifying, I never thought that the Sylvicous could be this scary"
Demuline, patriarch of the Sylvicous, showed once again his great prowess and for some reason was passionate about that mission. Slaughtering every villain in the most gruesome way, but for an unknown reason after capturing a specific villain he went away back to his mansion holding the tattered villain from his head.
After the two finished the chitchat. The two of them went to their respective classes.
