[ Expressionless Awakener ]
It's been many hours since that conversation between me and kwan jihu.
Ever since that conversation, i played lots of instruments inside my room for like hours at a time and usually take a break every 5 minutes or so.
I hope to never be in that situation ever again.
Currently, I'm in my bed like usual.
After playing a bit on my instruments, making music, and the other stuff, I usually take a nap on my bed or just lay on my bed, Sometimes watch the ceiling, see through space between the universe and wander into my own world... apparently.
I'm still thinking about what kwan jihu said before he left that conversation, I didn't really get what he meant by 'useful' but i will try hard to resolve this situation and get back the life i used to have, and maybe, not get involved with him...? Not sure if it's possible.
I mean... I don't really have a plan at this moment.
I took a breather and got out of my bed with ease.
I yawned listlessly.
I took my phone out of my pocket and checked the time.
'It's already 12 pm.. I should sleep. I need to wake up early tomorrow so i can go to Ann Willow's office and pass the essays for the second semester.' I thought.
I felt lazy turning off the lights, it's probably because i already relaxed on my bed.
As i slowly walked to turn off the lights, i took my phone from my pocket again and accidentally dropped it.
'...'
I turned and watched my phone as it dropped on the ground.
I groaned.
I picked it up slowly and finally turned off the lights.
As i slowly walked back to my bed again, A blue screen popped out of nowhere in front of me!
[ Hello! (◠‿・)-☆ ]
I stared at the system as my phone dropped again from the sudden scare.
I slowly picked it up again and spoke through my head;
'Hi.'
I went to my bed as i said, and put my phone on top of a table near my bed.
I yawned like usual and tried to take a nap.
[ Hey! Hey! You can't just sleep like that! I appeared in front of you so i could talk to you!! ] The system replied as it frantically makes noises to wake me up.
I groaned;
'Ugh... What..???'
[ I want to apologize for Kwan jihu's behaviour. ]
'What are you, his mom?'
[ Maybe. (◠‿・)-☆ ]
I pouted at the unfunny joke and went back to sleep.
[ Hey!! I'm not even finished yet! ]
The system replied.
I stared at the system for a while before answering back.
'what..?'
The system loaded for a few seconds..
[ Remember that offer you got from the hospital 2 days ago? ] The system suddenly asked.
'...offer?'
[ Yeah. ]
As i tried to remember back at the hospital, i got a vague fragment of what happened.
But I was forgotten instantly as i moved from my bed.
'No, i don't remember' I answered.
[ Eh..? ]
[ Welp, whatever. You'll figure it out by tomorrow. Welp, see ya there! ] The system replied before leaving.
'See ya there..?' I questioned myself.
I shook my head off and just forgot about it and went back to sleep.
'Whatever, I'll just figure it out by tomorrow, like the system said.. i guess' I thought as i doze myself to sleep.
The next day...
I went to my classroom like usual.
I already ate breakfast and prepared all of my essays, homework and the like.
I yawned again.
'So.. tiring.' I thought.
I mean, I woke up a bit later before my time. I must've gotten used to the break so much that i forgot i had a clock. So i had to use my time hurrying myself to the classroom.
I yawned again as i slowly went inside the classroom. Luckily the teacher was about to start the class before i came.
"Oh?" Teacher Ann Spoke first.
"Good morning teacher ann. Sorry that I'm late.. I think i was 1 minute late, can i come in..?" I spoke and stuttered as i wiped my tiring tears, expressionlessly.
"Um..." Teacher Ann hesitated to speak for a while.
I looked at my teacher and gave a hint of confusion.
'...?'
"Johnson kim, I think you're in the wrong class." The teacher spoke.
I was confused.
"What do you mean by that, teacher? I'm sure I'm in the right class." I spoke unconsciously.
"Did you forget about the deal two days ago..?" Teacher ann muttered.
"Deal... two days...ago?" I tilted my head and the tip of my hair resembled a confused mark.
Suddenly, The system appeared in front of me and showed me a video of me at the hospital entrance.
[ "Erm...sure i guess.." I said in the video, agreeing to something. ]
[ "Great! I hope you'll get along with your new classmates at your new class." A person spoke in the video. ]q
Suddenly, A strike appeared within my mind.
'Oh...Now i remember...' I thought and drooped.
"Do you remember now?" Teacher Ann spoke as she noticed me drooping.
"yes..." I mumbled quietly.
"Then, You should hurry! You might be late for your class!" Teacher Ann spoke loudly.
I looked at my phone and checked the time.
It was already 7 : 15 am!
My teacher watched as i hurriedly got out of the class with the speed of light and ran hurriedly through the hallways.
She sighed and smiled gently.
"Clueless kim, you forgot to ask where the classroom is."
As i ran frantically finding my new classroom, i stopped and forgot to ask the teacher where it is.
'Dang it.'
I groaned as i drooped on the ground.
I also remembered that i don't know which class i was attending!
'GAH...' i groaned and drooped even more.
[ You ok? (◕ᴗ◕✿) ] The system replied
'Probably..' I answered back to the system.
[ I could show you which way the classroom is! ] The system enthusiastically texted in the texts.
I stood back up.
'Really!?'
[ Yeah ]
The system texted and showed a waypoint for the classroom.
I was quite amazed by the system's talent.
[ Hehe ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ]
The system replied.
'But why is the symbol thingy so small....?'
I thought about the system.
[ That's cause the classroom is far! ]
The system replied simply.
'...' I was quiet for a moment.
'You've gotta be kidding me...'
As i ran and ran after each room and hallway, i finally got into the 'new classroom' that i was assigned to.
I dropped myself to the ground from tiredness and exhaustion and breathed for air.
'Huff..huff..huff..'
I looked up and was a bit confused.
'Eh?'
I thought.
The system's waypoint still hasn't disappeared yet, and was detecting the room that i was assigned.
But...
'Why are there three huge doors!?'
I thought as i finally relaxed my exhausted body and stood up.
'What..What classroom was i assigned..??' I thought as i questioning myself.
[ The aurorawhales! ] The system appeared out of nowhere and replied in front of me.
I was startled from the sudden appearance of the system.
I was quiet for a moment.
I looked at one of the three huge colored doors and the one in right was the aurorawhales.
'Aurora...Whales..?' I thought, still staring at the logo above the huge door in a confused state.
[ Yeah! Didn't you get a badge to assign this class!? ] The system replied as it spawned a weird accessory in front of me.
I took the accessory and finally, fully remembered what happened at the hospital entrance.
'...'
I was quiet for a moment.
Suddenly, i remembered the novel.
Now that i finally remembered these few information, I became hesitant on walking through my new assigned classroom.
I felt nervous.
[ What's wrong? ] The system replied.
'I'm kinda nervous.' I answered back.
[ Then don't be! =_= ] The system replied with an emoji.
'But i forgor.' I answered back to the system, purposely saying a misspelled word.
[ ಠ_ಠ ]
'...'
I was quiet for a moment, staring at the system.
I took my phone from my pocket and checked the time.
It was extremely late.
'SHOOT!' I quickly ran inside the classroom with a bang as i knew that i was late.
Before i knew it, The entire classroom looked at me with suspicious eyes.
I felt the essence of dangerous students as they stared at me and i shivered instantly.
'Ah...Maybe i shouldn't have banged inside..' I thought as i felt sweat dripping and an emotion of embarrassment.
I looked around the huge luxurious classroom.
It has lots of chairs to sit on,
Has huge windows on the side, along with huge sheets covering them.
And finally, a huge Tv, and has a logo on top of it resembling the aurorawhales class.
I slowly took a few steps before speaking;
"I'm sorry I'm late."
The teacher who was still teaching the students, stared at me and laughed.
"You must be the new student that was assigned in my class! Welcome!" The teacher spoke in open arms.
"My name is Alec Kane! Nice to meet you!"
Teacher Alec spoke.
I stared at the handsome teacher for a while and felt a bit hesitant.
Finally, i remembered the novel.
'The teacher, Alec kain. Was a cousin to the Grace family. I'm not sure if my information on him is correct, but I heard he has a similar personality to the system, except that he is a bit dark at times.'
I greeted the teacher with a bow, forgetting that I'm in america.
"Woah, woah! You don't have to be this formal!" The teacher chuckled.
'Ah, Oops.' I thought as i shook the teacher's hand for a greeting.
'I forgot sometimes that I'm in america, Not in korea.'
The vague memories i had in my past life were quite vague and vivid. After reincarnation, I already forgot at least half of my memories about korea and its cultures.. I think that bow greeting was from korea, not sure how i remembered that in instinct.
My sweat drooped a bit as the teacher took my arm and introduced me to the classroom.
Finally, I wondered myself;
'Why is the teacher introducing me to the classroom?'
"Class, This is our new student..Kim johnson!" The teacher spoke as he showed a malicious smile.
Finally, the teacher putted hes hand on my back.
I felt the touch.
The nervousness felt my gut telling me hurriedly to sit on a chair right now.
Suddenly, I felt the essence and mana flow of the teacher.
[ Kim!! Dodge!! Now!! ] The system appeared and replied in front of me
Before i knew it, i unconsciously dodged my teachers attack.
The attack was putting a mana bomb in the back of my body, luckily, The system warned me just in time before my teacher made a move.
"To be able to dodge my attack. I wouldn't have let you inside the classroom if you weren't able to dodge it." The teacher chuckled maliciously.
'Oh.'
I stared at my teacher expressionlessly, not speaking a single word.
The teacher felt somewhat awkward from the stare.
"Pick a sit, Kim! Don't worry, You won't die because you were 15 minutes late!" The teacher spoke enthusiastically but awkwardly at the same time.
I slowly walked up the stairs to my sit.
'If i didn't dodge that attack, i would've gotten back to teacher Ann's classroom....' I thought regretfully.
I sat on a random chair and looked around the other students.
The teacher continued hes lesson from before.
After all, i did interrupt this guy's class so..
I looked around the students faces with shocked or excited faces.
They stared at me like I was some rare item to use.
I felt nervous but at the same time very unsettling.
'...'
Now that i think about it, on the first day i got into this academy two years ago, I said that i remembered all of the names and a few character information in the school....but.. that was practically an 'almost' remembered all of the characters in the novel.
I looked around faces of students that i actually didn't know.
'Uh..Who was that guy again..?' I thought as i looked at the guy with purple hair and green eyes.
I turned and looked at the other students i didn't know.
'...'
'Who are these people???'
'...'
'Ah...wait i actually don't know these characters..'
I thought carelessly.
'Y,know what, i actually don't care anymore...'
I thought as i shooked my head.
Oh will, Most of these students were barely shown in the novel anyway despite only showing names...
Practically extras that are just like me...apparently.
The classes ended and the afternoon came by.
Before i could get lunch,Tons of students inside the classroom gathered around me instantly.
"Hey, Hey!" A Powerful student shouted at me.
"What class rank are you!?" Another Powerful student Asked excitingly.
"Your cheeks are so big!" Another powerful student spoke as he touched my cheeks.
Before i knew it, I was already touched and spoken by the gathered students..
I got uncomfortable but showed an expressionless and yet quiet face.
Suddenly, i turned around and noticed a familliar face..
It was kwan jihu and he was talking to the other students! But why are they looking at me with utmost pity..?
Maybe its because of the gathered students..?
'...' I felt quiet for a while.
The students gathered more and more as they touched me by the arm and head.
I couldn't move somehow because of the students.
'Yup, Its definitely the gathered students.' I thought as i suddenly got dragged by other students.
'.....I'm....gonna survive this classroom somehow....right..?'
I thought as i felt my soul shiver in uncomfortableness....
Expressionlessly.
