On the way home, Astra wondered why her level showed an infinity symbol.
"Why the sphere didn't show my warrior level? Is my level low or high, I don't know, but the symbol of infinite means no limit. Then my level is higher than others. I have to go home quickly to experiment."
After thinking, she hurried home. The familiar neighborhood with piles of waste covering the community is there. No one had come to clean this neighborhood, as if it had been abandoned. However, there were still one—or two-story houses where people lived as if they couldn't discard their homes even if their lives were in danger at any moment.
So, Astra isn't alone in this waste kingdom, she sighed. It was sadness or happiness, she doesn't know. But it is good that she is not a waste kingdom princess. That's the only relief in this same but fantasy world.
She doesn't have time to waste because she has more work now. After thinking so much, she went into her house while walking and looking around. There are many empty places here. If it can be cleaned, then an army base can be made here. Also, if they want, then it can also be a secret army base. So, no one will know what is going on here.
"Will I ask the teacher about this? If the teacher agrees, then we will train here, no one will know if we hang in front of the base that there is no entry here. This is a private property."
Astra was thinking because she wouldn't have to go to school and live there till the training ended. She can live in her home peacefully. But she didn't know that her peaceful life would be broken after she talked about this place to the school.
She went into her home and freshened up. After cooking some food, she and her little bird ate and went to bed. After lying down, she fell asleep in peace of mind.
But on the other side, her classmates weren't at peace like her. Every parent was nagging at them to tell something to them. Everyone gave the same answer.
"I am a low-level warrior. But the teacher said if we work hard, then we can become mid-level warriors. I don't know what the teacher is thinking. Don't disturb me anymore. If I waste my time here, then as an ordinary person, I won't even go to a good university."
The classmates can't tell their parents the truth, so they feel the situation is frustrating. So, they showed their temperament to their parents and went straight to their room while saying.
"I am not in a good mood. So, don't wait for me to eat dinner."
Before they went home, they ate in a restaurant. If they eat food at home today, then they have to answer the whole history of the first emperor. It means the whole story about the awakening test. If they broke their promise, then they and their parents would be in danger. So, they couldn't take any risks and ate outside.
Even if they don't eat at night, it won't be a bad thing. In the morning, they didn't eat breakfast. Without eating, they went to the school. The parents were thinking that their child was sad.
It is not that they didn't confirm anything with other parents. After hearing their child was not a high-level warrior, they contacted other people to get some news. But after contacting each other, they knew that their child's class had no mid or high-level warrior. So, every parent sighed together and thought the same thing.
"It is good that no one is a mid or high-level warrior in their class. Our child will have no shadow in their life. Let's talk with the child in the morning and think about which university the child will go to."
But they didn't think that their child won't even eat the breakfast. They thought the child was sad, so they sent some money to them and a message. The message was also the same.
"Child, don't be sad. Eat some good things when you are at school. It's not that we don't have any choice. You can go to a good university and become what you want. We won't say anything about being a warrior again. The father and mother are cheering you on."
Seeing the message first, one of them is showing off. After he showed off, the other classmates also showed their message. The message was the same. The person who showed off their message becomes a fool.
"So, it wasn't me alone, but everyone got the money and message."
He said while looking like a sad puppy.
"Karl, don't be sad. We also didn't expect that our plan would work. It is good that they accepted this easily. Who doesn't know that our parents are so competitive? They always wanted us to do what they wanted. But now is the chance to do what we want. It is not that we won't listen to them, but we become worry-free and become what we want and can do what we want. Parents also won't worry about us and won't take any decision that will be bad for us."
Anna said thoughtfully.
"Yes. This is good. I am bored with my competitive life. I always thought, why do I have to live my life like this? Can't I have some choice in my life? It's not that what parents say is bad, but they also need to think that we also have like. They can ask me to become a doctor, but what if I don't like to become a doctor but a businessman? When we always listen to them, they also need to listen to us sometimes. Don't you think?"
Olivia said sadly.
It means her parents pressured her most before yesterday. But they got a chance to do what they want to do now.
"So, I thought I would become a high-level warrior and do what I want to do. No one can stop me anymore."
After pausing some time, Olivia got her confidence back and said happily. Hearing her, everyone nodded. At that time, Astra came into the classroom and heard. When she saw everyone was in a happy mood, her mood was good, but she didn't show it to anyone.
Seeing her, everyone said, "Welcome, captain."
She paused for a moment and then nodded to everyone. Astra didn't expect that the next day, when she came to the school, they would call her 'captain.' It was new and awkward to her. But she didn't show it to her face and went straight to her seat and sat down.
Adelaide also came to class after Astra. Seeing her, she was acting like a baby.
"Astra, Astra, why did you come before me today? I thought I was the first one. I am sad. Comfort me."
She was looking at her like a puppy with puppy eyes. Seeing her like this, Astra couldn't help but smile a little. Seeing her smile, Adelaide said,
"You smiled. What a beautiful smile!"
When she said it, it was loud, like a little shout. Astra's smile was for a moment. But hearing her, everyone looked at her and sighed.
"Ah! Why didn't we look at our Ice Queen for a moment? If we looked, we wouldn't miss the first smile on her."
Everyone thought the same. But what can they do? They couldn't see her smile even if they wanted to.
After the school bell rang, the teacher came to the class. He teaches them the normal subject that was everyone who awakened and not awakened.
After the class, Astra went to the teacher's room to talk with the teacher.
"Teacher Wilson, may I come in?"
She asked. Teacher Wilson was also surprised that she was seeking him.
"Come in."
He permitted her to enter his office room. The teacher was sitting in his chair, and behind him was a bookshelf that had many books.
"What do you want to tell?"
He asked because he knew if she didn't have anything to say to him, she wouldn't come to him at all. She is self-reliant.
"Teacher, I wanted to talk about my neighborhood."
She said straightforwardly.
"What happened there? Is there something wrong? Are you having a problem staying there?"
The teacher was worried for her so he asked so many questions. He also has two children in his home, so he knows how much pressure to let your child go to school alone. But his wife is also a high-level wood-type warrior and goes with them every day. They also hired a retired warrior as a bodyguard to keep them safe. He can teach students peacefully.
"No, teacher. There isn't anything wrong. It's just..."
She said and paused for a moment. The teacher looked at her. But his eyes said, if there isn't anything wrong, then why are you spending so much time saying something?
She understood the teacher's look and said.
"Teacher, the community I live in is empty with piles of waste, as if it is a garbage kingdom. I was wondering if there can be make the base of training school student. It will be good if we make a training center there. That is the residence community. So no one will doubt for a while if we train there. After we become proficient in using our power, we won't go there. But the checking camera will be there to see if any thugs are using our training center."
While saying, she paused for a moment, looked at the teacher, and started to tell again.
"It will be good for us and the retired warrior. They can teach students and live there. So the community will be in peace, and the crime won't increase in the empty neighborhood."
She thought and said again, "It's not that the school and government will accept my ideas, but I thought it would be good if I talk about my ideas to the teacher."
The teacher was hearing and looking at her when he heard the first line about her neighborhood. He frowned at first when she started to talk about the garbage kingdom community, he was losing interest in the topic, but after he heard her completely. He thought for a while and asked,
"Why did you think about that?"
"Because you told us yesterday that spies are spying on every school and trying to find genius students to take or kill them. So if we clean every garbage kingdom and make a place for living and farming, we also keep some space for throwing garbage. Then our environment will be clean, and food will be much more than now we have. At least some problems will be solved. Also, the retired warrior sometimes can't find a job. So, they can find some job there. There won't be any jobless warriors. Their problem will be solved. It's not that every warrior is in good health when they retire. Some people's health is not good for some heavy work, so they can supervise the situation. It will make them happy and won't be sad."
She looked at the teacher after and wanted to hear what the teacher said.
"I will talk to the principal and chairman about this. You can go."
Astra came out of the teacher's office room and went straight to the classroom. After seeing Astra is not there anymore, the teacher laughed.
"Garbage Kingdom, ah!"
While thinking teacher was amused. How she frowned when she talked about the "garbage kingdom" word.
