MIGHT AS WELL BE OP Chapter 133: Children

The next day quickly approached.

But today nobody headed for class or went on a mission amongst the first year.

Bringer didn't waste ti to spread the news imdiately he was teleported out of Anthony's room.

Since he was already used to Anthony's way of doing things, he didn't head back to his room but rather focused on important things.

The first year were in uproar.

Anthony was hosting them, so none of them dared to leave the Academy to complete a mission, none wanted to take a class right now as they couldn't miss such an event.

Anthony who hadn't left his room since his return was oblivious to the problem he had caused.

He was just waking up to a new day.

He went through the usual bathing procedure which he enjoyed very much, then stepped out of his room.

On his way, he thought of whether to take on another mission and be the first to complete the entire top ten mission alone.

But as he thought about it, it seed long and tiring so he just gave up on the thought.

As Anthony walked, various people stared at him, although people normally stared at him but this ti they just wanted to use their eyes and confirm the news Bringer had spread.

One courageous student decided to ask, so he walked up to Anthony.

Anthony feet halted their movents as he saw soone blocking his path.

"Uhmm.....is it true you will sponsoring us at the cafeteria"

The boy as he looked at Anthony sowhat admiring his eyes as he asked.

Anthony already expecting the question looked around and saw people waiting for his reply.

They all wanted to eat to their satisfaction as food was ridiculously expensive to them.

They had better things to spend their Academy points on.

So they don't really eat everyday or even weeks as they were 'poor'.

Although they were all strong on a certain level, but the stronger you get the more points you require and the harder and difficult the mission becos.

Things don't just magically beco easy because you beca an A ranker or sothing.

Anthony sighed as he instantly knew it was Bryan's fault.

He then turned to them and replied.

"We will eat to our satisfaction three hours from now"

Anthony said as he looked at the ti on his wrist watch.

Then everyone cheered imdiately Anthony confird the news.

Anthony shook his head at this hungry mobs and walked away as soon as he replied.

Anthony didn't head to class today.

He decided to walk around the Academy domain for a while.

Although he might be fined for missing class, but it depends on the professor.

If they decide to fine him, it won't matter with his ridiculous points, but he was sure most won't as they would think he was resting or sothing after completing an arduous mission that 'nearly took his life'.

People bustled about their life.

Life energy was strong due to due mana.

Anthony saw children play and laugh around while splashing water on one another.

Anthony stood for a while and admired this sight.

He rembered when he was like this, young and without responsibility.

Due to his outrageous intelligence, Anthony could rember his entire life even from birth, what he ate, what anyone said without even trying.

He could rember every single details of his past life in the orphanage as he grew up and how he ended up there.

mories that seed to have been forgotten, but it was still there but Anthony just never thought back at it.

But as he watched the children play, his mories flooded him.

Anthony played around in his mory, just a child without knowledge of the world.

Until he grew up and reality set in.

All those dreams of being an Astronaut or a Doctor or Engineer and all those fancy jobs he dread about were shattered by reality.

Not that Anthony blad anybody or anything, the orphanage took good care of him until he grew up and was asked to leave.

Seeing these children who would soon grow up to face the sa harsh reality, Anthony felt quite a bit sad.

Even if one of them becos loved by the world or whatever and all that.

They might still have to go through so tragedy like losing their loved ones and all that just for the sake of 'character developnt'.

He smiled as he watched them, Anthony had a soft spot for kids due to their innocence and pure heart and their cuteness.

But certainly not children from big clans and large families as those ones have been nurtured from birth.

So ideals and others things have been taught to them make their pure innocence disappear.

Anthony stoped staring after a while.

He approached the children with a smile and they turned him as they saw him approach them.

There were six children here at this mont.

"Hello kids where are your parents"

None of them replied and just looked at Anthony before one of them replied.

"Big brother, we aren't ant to talk to stranger"

Anthony smiled as he looked even more approachable.

"Don't worry I'm just a wondering swordsman"

Anthony said as he tapped his sword sheath.

He knew kids often fell into fantasies like he once fantasied about being a a surgeon.

And what fantasy was there to dream about by children of this world if not about sword and magic.

As Anthony tapped his sword, their eyes fell on it and all the caution in their eyes instantly disappeared.

Which kid didn't dream of flying or battling with magic and weapons.

"Woahh...big brother can I hold your sword"

Another child said as he stretched his hand to touch the sword, but the child's hand seed to stop the more it moved.

"Big brother why can't I touch your weapon"

Anthony smiled and replied.

"I'm also a mage, beside you might get injured if you touch it"

"Big brother I want to be a swordsman and beco the strongest in the world"

One of them instantly stated obviously oblivious to how the world works.

"Hmph, magic is the strongest"

Another child said with a snort as they both argued back and forth which was stronger between the two.

Anthony just kept quiet and watched.

The remaining children could only sigh and watch like they had seen this scene way too much and were used to it already.

Then one of them looked at Anthony and said.

"Big brother, since you are a swordman and a mage at sa ti, which one is the strongest"

Imdiately this question was asked, the two children stopped arguing and looked at Anthony for answers.

To them Anthony was the expert here and should have the answer to this question.

Anthony was stunned as he was asked this question.

'What should I say'

He thought.

Anthony didn't know what to say.

He couldn't say one was stronger than the other, even if that was indeed true, he couldn't say it or the other child might just cry and throw a tantrum.

Although he had no kids, he understood their mindset.
