"Oye! Winter vacations are already over; did you study?"
"Yeah, man, 2nd year math is hard."
"2nd year!? Dude, we are in 3rd!!!"
"What the... Fuck! I will show you your greatest academic comeback in 3 months."
The winter vacations had ended as expected, and students had restarted school. As always, there was a look of laziness on some faces, some excited and some still sad about returning to this draining lifestyle again.
But not all were in the same condition, as there were a few who changed astonishingly in a short time.
*Bam!*
Lucas just returned to the house after some shopping outside. He had started wearing a black mask outside these days after finally realising his face had been attracting too much attention outside.
'Let's just get it done with salad today...'
Lucas sighed as he removed the tracksuit and tossed it over the dinner table chair. With the inner wear on, he started to take out a few groceries he had brought from the shop inside the kitchen.
'Ethan... After meeting Jason, I didn't try to interfere with his life all this time; he's been rarely coming out these days because he's been a bit busy with his assignments. There are no vacations for medical students, I guess...'
Lucas sighed as he opened up the sheets covering Kichen windows, and after washing off the fruits and veggies, he left the bread in the toaster and started cutting the salad, veggies, and fruits.
'We have been living simply like housemates instead of brothers; he doesn't say anything about his life; I don't have anything to share with normal people; he's become more and more reserved each day; Ethan doesn't even open up to people much... Does this dude still have any friends?'
Lucas sighed as he took a bowl and tossed all the raw salad straight into the bowl, sprinkling some salt. He was done with it.
*Ting!*
The toast was also ready, and taking his things, he moved on to the dinner table while checking notifications on his phone while the bright sunlight was touching his broad, strong shoulders.
'But well, even though I'm late now, I might as well start taking a little bit of revenge for my brother, the series of targeted bullying...'
[I'm at school, Hyung; I will show you the'results'! πͺπ»βΊοΈ]
Lucas saw Jason's message on his face as a grin emerged over his face while crushing the toast under his teeth with a cold smirk.
'I will crush them to the core'
Lucas smirked, and the reason was obvious today, as at the same time, Hanseong High School was witnessing the greatest physical and mental transformation they had ever seen in their lives.
"Oye. Is that Jason?"
"Doesn't he look kind of buffed?"
"Did he go to the gym!?"
"Damn... I didn't realise he had that kind of natural jawline because of his skinny face before, but... isn't this kind of too much?"
All the students of Hanseong High School were stunned by the physical growth of Jason as he entered the school. His hairs had grown a bit, so he trimmed them a bit by the sides, and the new light and confidence in his posture and movements easily made him the centre of attention right from the early morning.
'What assholes! Even animals don't leave the side they choose to live in yet see these fuckers, but at the same time... It's kind of better, the attention over me... Is provocation to others'
Jason scoffed as his gaze met Jake and his friends gritting their teeth while standing on the second floor of the school building, glaring over Jason from the windows with an obvious grudge on their faces.
"Hey Jake, this fucker is going all high from last time!"
"That fucker brought an outsider into a high school fight; the fuck does he think he is?"
"I really want to destroy that face of his again! Tsk!"
As the three said, with enraged faces, Jake also had veins popping on his throat and fist as the next second he coldly commanded the others.
"Drag that fucker to the rooftop at the interval; the dog needs to know its place; we have to remind him again."
As he said, he immediately left the place while the other three were left with wide, cold grins on their faces and sparking gazes over Jason entering the school building, and in a few minutes, the classes also started.
"Oh, Jason, is that you? Wow, I almost didn't recognise you, brat! Hahaha! That's good! That's good! You joined some gym?"
The teacher who most days just ignored Jason for the whole year was suddenly complimenting him with just a few changes in his looks.Β
"Something similar..."
But Jason didn't act any different and kept his composure, and that kind smile stuck to his face even through the eyes. He had already died years ago from these snakes.
"Oye Jason! I almost didn't recognise you, dude!"
"Damn! Do you play Warfare Chronicles?"
"You can also add me to that! I'm a good player!"
"Man, recommend your gym; I will also go lift weights with you."
In just a few minutes of break between class periods, Jason was instantly surrounded by the other classmates, filled with curiosity. It was clear the fear Jake and others had engrained in the school has become weaker since Jason smashed head on Jake, and rumours of his friends going to the hospital spread in school, making students more and more open towards Jake and not much afraid of associating them with him.
'Loner... The tag I couldn't throw away after all the struggles and all attempts to make friends with classmates for the whole year, now suddenly the situation changed and the others want to associate with me? These damn snakes... But I will need these snakes...'
"My, that would be a pleasure. I'm level 854 Warlock; would that be alright?"
Jason replied to their questions with a kind smile. Hearing his voice, the other classmates of his suddenly started to brighten up with smiles.
"Holy shit! Level 854! Are you a ranker, lol? ~ why did you never tell us?"
'Cause you never asked'
"Man, that's rich! Warlock requires a lot of real-life money! You got it over to 854?! Your parents must be real-life millionaires!"
'You care for that just now of all times?'
"You should have hung out with us more, you know! Man! We missed out on so much! How about an internet cafe after school?"
'I tried to join you... You just pushed me away.'
"Hahaha! Well, anyway, forget the past! Let's start anew; there are just a few months remaining for high school; let's go all out."
'The past... would never be forgiven'
"Hmm"
Jason maintained that king smile with a nod, but the eyes that were staring at all these kids around him were just those of a plain, cold, and absolutely crafty manipulator.Β
But at the same time, there were few present in class, obviously not too happy with Jason's promotion in the class hierarchy.
'Tsk... Fuck!'
'The class periods are getting way too long...'
'...'
Their cold gazes were stabbing Jason's face to point out that it was more annoying to ignore them than comfort them himself, but Jason kept it together the whole time and purposefully avoided meeting the eyes.
"Get on your seats! Math class is starting!"
As the next teacher arrived, the students returned to their seats, and from then on, classes went on as planned, while Jason also stole a glance at Jake and the other three students present in the class.
'This is going to be way better than expected...'
Jason couldn't hide that grin, and despite all struggles to point, he had to bite his lips under his teeth to keep the twitching fact intact with a light of composure.
Jason and those three endured the wait for the next few more periods, and finally the interval arrived.
*Ding!!! Ding!!! Ding!!!*
"We need to talk..."
As soon as the bell rang and the teacher left, Jason was instantly surrounded by Jake and the other three around his seat. Jason took a glance at them from his seat, and then, over all, classmates that were trying so hard to be friends just a few minutes ago
'Damn these snakes~'
His lips curled up a bit with a trace of a smirk as he stood up from the seat, and with both arms open and a smile on his face, he just silently nodded and replied.
"How dare I reject your offer?"
As Jason said, suddenly one of Jake's friends grabbed him under his shoulders with a grin and opened up the door of the classroom. They immediately left the class directly to the rooftop, and as soon as they arrived at the rooftop, Jason was pushed forward with a kick on his back, and instantly the doors of the rooftop were closed off with Jake and the other four cracking up their hands.
"Why don't we have a talk then?"
"I recommend gritting your teeth today!"
"Hey~ fucker, Are you thinking you are a big shot now with protein balloons?"
"He's so cringeworthy; you wanted to fight that day, right? Then let's fight!"
As Jason heard Jake's offer, the grin he had been suppressing for the whole day curled up on his face like a devil as, while pushing up his sleeves of shirt, he coldly opened up his mouth again, releasing words drenched with that creepy cold tone in his voice enough to make the devil shiver.
"How dare I reject... 'Let's Fight Assholes'"
