"Hi, my na is Reyna Schmitz. Yes, your guess is right that the surna is indeed Schmitz, the largest bank company in the world. I'm the heiress of it so if anyone's thinking of bullying just because I ca from the lower classes, I'll get your families bankrupt,"
Reyna let out a dashing smile, her purple eyes glistening that felt threatening to the onlookers. She left the front as her short brown hair swayed while she made her way to her seat beside Cesar.
The others who listened to her brief yet precise introduction couldn't help but shiver upon realizing she wasn't just a nobody. All of them cast quick looks at her before they waited for the next person to introduce themselves.
The introduction has been going very well for the most part. Arnold's objective of wasting ti is slowly being accomplished as he is relaxing on his chair, letting out a tired yawn from his mouth.
Next who ca to the front was one of the twins, Joshua. Strolling with a relaxed pace, he turned the crowd and calmly spoke.
"The na's Joshua Fensir. I'm not really interested in anything as long as you don't get or Nike's way. If you have a problem with us, say it straight in my face and we can deal it with our fists. Oh, before that, if you can see that our problems are resolved through negotiations, then we can start with that. A pleasure to et you all,"
'Hah, these two…'
Aside from the past introductions that already occurred, the past two students have already added warnings to not ss with them less they t with unfortunate circumstances they wouldn't want to co on their way.
Cesar couldn't bla them. After all, he did the sa thing when he got transferred in this class. However, unlike the two who gave a few sentences, he only said four words for them.
-Don't even bother .
First and foremost, Class 1-A had a history of being arrogant and full of themselves. They were the embodint of absolute power, utterly best, and authoritative figures that might lead humanity in the future, after all.
Cesar wasn't generalizing most of the students in the class. It's just that so of them are just getting on his nerves.
Hence to fight arrogance, give them arrogance as well. Or give them the hardest wake-up call which is instilling fear.
In the end, the situation turned worse and Cesar rembered that he mostly exchanged fistfights with these people. Aside from Jacqueline and a handful of students, they got a taste of the lifeti where a lower class demolishes the strength they carefully groom.
'What a nice ti,' Cesar mused inwardly as he watched Nike silently trod to the front.
The sa as his twin brother, he didn't appear normal as well. He also had strange reddish-brown hair, blue eyes, and a body figure that is no different than Joshua's. However, there's a stark difference between him and his brother.
On the side of his cheek, there was a clear and visible mouth. It was small but nothing flashy yet the people who were seeing him for the first ti will either look at that small mouth first or second.
"Uhh…"
Nike's real mouth moved.
"You hurt my brother, you hurt as well. I don't give a fuck who you are."
Soon, he sat down and the introduction continued. Unlike the three who provided an act of provocation while Arnold remained the silent and bored watcher, the others continued giving simple overviews of themselves.
At the end was Quentin.
Even though it looked like it wasn't right, knowing he had already been forced to speak, Quentin was still forced to introduce himself after Arnold observed him for a whole minute when he remained in his seat.
Silently cursing under his breath, Quentin let out a constrained smile, "My na is Quentin ro. My family runs the best liquor in the whole world. Pleased to et you guys again, I hope we could be friends,"
Once Quentin, the only one left on the long list of new students in this month's ranking of Class 1-A, Arnold stood up from his seat and turned to the blackboard.
"Have you guys relaxed for a bit?" Arnold suddenly turned different as he spoke with a grave dangerous tone in his voice, "Well, now that we're done on the least significant part, let's get onto the important part,"
'Finally…'
Cesar had been waiting for this lecture to co, knowing there were only a couple of days left till this comnced.
"I'm sure a month is enough for you guys to study and learn the newly acquired abilities you chose yourself. Last month, this class was the first one to finish the selection hence you'll be the first few to be deployed to your assigned field trips. That's right, it was finally ti for outdoor activity: Resisting Expedition to begin,"
Resisting Expedition
An outdoor venture in which students were tasked to transfer to a specific field to help solve a problem located there. The designated site students were supposed to be set up varies. It might be located in an industrial tropolis, hidden village, crowded city, or quiet yet harsh surroundings such as hanging towns.
At the end of the day, it was the academy's choice and judgnt when the student's deploynt went. Of course, the choice of a location should be 'standard' and adhere to the rules that it wouldn't 'endanger' the students as they were on the expedition.
"Actually, the plan has always been dividing all the fourth years where you'll be accompanied by different classes but the lower classes had to adjust to the new profound strength they acquired, unlike you guys who had the ample amount of ti to do so.
"Now, the idea the academy suggested is to put the sa people in the sa class to the sa squad. The academy will decide how you are grouped and who will you be accompanied by,"
Arnold paused as he brought out a paper with a list of nas that had been given to him, "Fortunately, sothing has already been given to . Hence, we'll form you into groups and practice your synergy with these people."
The class didn't need to be debriefed about everything one has to know regarding the expedition. Not only have they been inford by their teachers for the past few years now, all of them have been tasked to do so research for themselves.
This expedition will be the final hurdle for the students to test if they are capable enough to be sent to the military to perform their duties or invalid to do so.
"Group one…"
There are a total of fifty people in the class. For the first four groups, Arnold called eight people to form themselves, leaving only eighteen people seated in their seats. Surprisingly, Cesar wasn't picked yet so Reyna, the twins, Jacqueline, and even Quentin.
'Nah, there's no way, right?'
Cesar felt a foreboding when he wasn't ntioned nor the people that accompanied him for today. This type of situation which rarely happened was about to happen… at least inside his mind.
"Group five…"
Soon, six people were called, forming the fifth squad inside the class. Cesar's face cracked when nothing had changed for the people he was keeping an eye on.
"Group six,"
Then another set of nas was called, making him more perplexed, hearing and seeing right on his face that the only ones left on their table were the ones he wasn't sure he wanted to accompany.
'No shit…'
Arnold cast a glance at the last set of people as he stated, "Seventh group. Please form a circle once I call your nas. Jacqueline Casanova, Cesar Sparrow, Reyna Schmitz, Joshua Fensir, Nike Fensir, and lastly, Quentin ro,"
On the last set of the squad, its existing mbers felt an avalanche of emotions.
The happiest of them was Reyna as she imdiately adjusted her seat with Cesar. The twins, Joshua and Nike were at least relieved, looking gladden at the fact it was a people they were familiar with rather than complete strangers. Jacqueline, who was on the front line of seats imdiately moved and went over to Cesar to form a circle since Reyna already started it for themselves.
Quentin was a person who didn't accept such groupings. His face completely cracked into disbelief, slowly turned his head to Cesar, who was also in disbelief once he was surrounded by exemplary people, though his reasons were different from the inside.
'What is this stupid thod of bracketing the students?'
He was confused at how the procedure transpired or the basis of such actions but he demanded answers. Unfortunately, Quentin wasn't brave enough to question, making Cesar click his tongue.
It would an disregarding the academy's choices after all.
Cesar could be brave enough but he wasn't ready enough to cause any rift between the relationship he had with Arnold.
Quentin reluctantly ford a circle around Cesar before all of them heard him continuing.
"This is nice. I could see that everyone had a direction for the task being given to you, and no stupid questions being asked and all." Arnold chuckled before he continued, "You have a week to… properly arrange your squad. Whatever the outco of it, you'll be deployed anyway."
Arnold smiled cheekily, "Good luck with that,"
