Chapter 87 A Show Of Power (1)

The midterms take place for a whole month.

We have four main subjects,

History.

Dungeon and Portal Study.

General Knowledge.

Morality, which was a subject designed to teach a student about....well, morals.

If a hero turned over to the 'dark side' then most people blame the school, so this subject was introduced as a form of counter against the people's hateful eyes.

It's been a 2 weeks since the midterms started.

History exam was kinda 'meh' and Portal and Dungeon study was slightly better since I had some edge of the students over that subject.

Tomorrow, we have our General Knowledge exam which deals with current affairs.

All of us were studying together in Lecia's room, since she didn't have a roommate as she got into the hero course very late.

Well, I'm studying but the others.....

Max was literally breathing into Lecia's ear like an incessant dog that wouldn't stop it's whining, Lecia didn't seem that bothered by it...but I'm a little bothered. I'm gonna have to give him a 'talk' after this 'study-session' is over.

Katherine was gossiping with Eric while he painted her nails, which was strange thing for Eric to do since he acts all macho to hide a shit ton of insecurities.

"hehe..right.", Katherine says blowing on her nails which were a bright red now.

'Just what happened while I was gone.....', I think, stunned to see Eric smile.

Shaking my head, I shift my focus to Jennifer who was busy chatting away with Emilia.. every minute or so she turns to look at me...it's annoying.

Once. I caught her in the act and Jennifer didn't even seem flustered. Instead she winked at me...

I did find her behavior attractive in the beginning but it's starting to get a little annoying.

"So...we're going to ignore the fact that none of them are actually studying ?"

I turn around to find John....my exam buddy.

John Levinson was the student who sat beside me during my exams, he's an okay dude...and we've been talking for a while now...the only weird thing about him is that he stares a bit too much.

I wasn't planning on getting close to him, but as soon as I heard his second name, I changed my mind.

Levinson...as in 'Levinson motors'

Remember the mana crystal car that creep, Mark bought using money that belonged to the orphanage.....that was manufactured by Levinson motors.

They're at the top of the food chain in their particular field.

Even though they're significant in this world, they had little to no significance in the novel. I just created 'Levinson Motors' to highlight the power of the rich elite in the school.

Like how the rich bullies would drive up in their luxury car manufactured by Levinson motors. and then Max would beat the shit out of them and the car.

It's interesting that I met John here....but anyway I decided to get closer to him since there surely must be a 'friend discount'...I mean I like the car I own now. But still it's nothing compared to the beauty that Levinson introduced into the market recently.

I know it's bad to get closer to someone with bad intentions but a guy's gotta do what he gotta do to get that discount.

In order to do that, I invited him to the study session.....but that's gone down the drain.

~~~~

I give up on studying half way through the study-session and converse with John...well it wasn't much of a conversation since I just listened on as John rambled on about his dog and mother.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

ughh....I hate rich kids..

I resist the urge to yawn and listen with a smile on my face as I remind myself of the discount I could possibly get in the future.

After about thirty minutes, I couldn't hold on much longer and decided to end the session.

" So soon...we haven't even started yet ?", Katherine asks looking confused.

I resist my urge to smack her on the head and say,

" You guys can continue studying....I'm just taking a break since I'm tired."

As I get up, John follows suit as well,

" I'll come with you too.", he says with a gentle smile on his face.

'Great...',I think getting out of Lecia's room with him behind me.

~~~~

"I think I've heard of your name somewhere...", I say slowly sipping my coffee.

John thinks for a awhile and says,

" You're probably thinking of my father's company....Levinson motors.", John said with a smug grin.

'Finally..', I think exhausted.

I've been trying to clue this bastard in for than half an hour and we're finally getting to a topic of interest !

" Wow !", I say clapping my hands together in fake excitement.

" Yeah, that's right..", John says blushing [?]

" That's such a coincidence...I've been thinking of buying one of your newer models !"

" Really ?"

John seemed to be thinking about something, after a few minutes he proceeds to grin and say,

" How about I give you one of those shiny cars for free ?"

What ?!

For free.....amazing....

I could buy ten of them without even blinking my eyes but who doesn't like things that are free ?

" But you have to do something for me ?", John continued in a shy voice.

" What is it ?", I ask excitement coursing through my veins.

I'll do anything...literally anything.....

" Go on a date with me !!"

Eh ?

" I'm sorry if it wasn't clear, John....but I'm not uh..gay.", I say a little confused.

John's smile fades and his eyes fill with tears [?]

" You d-don't l-love me ?"

What the fuck ?

That's quite the leap from going on a date.

I watch uncomfortably as John runs away from me audibly sobbing..

What just happened ?

.....

Do I still get that car ?

~~~~

On the way to my room, three different men gave me their contact information.....is it because of how I look right now ?

Is that why all these assholes were staring at me all the time ?

.....

Ughhh...I feel violated.

Is this how woman feel, everyday ?

...

That's sad.

I catch another dude peering at me and I glare at him in full force.

'Che, men are such pigs.', I thought as my eyes were drawn to a girl walking beside me.

.....

I'm a hypocrite....but who isn't ?
