“Alright, we will end our class here.” The teacher muttered and then left the class.
The rest of the students stood up and started talking with each other.
“Hey? What are you going to do now?”
“What else? I am going to cultivate.”
“Tsk Tsk, you are so boring. Don’t you think you should enjoy your life a little?”
“You can waste your life if you want to, I do not have the time to do that.”
“Ugghhh! What a bore.”
“Indeed Indeed.”
“Whatever you call me, I don’t care,”
“Tsk Tsk, alright, I guess I should go cultivate as well.”
“If you know what’s good for you, then sure.”
Some students were serious about their cultivation, while some just planned how they will have fun for the rest of the day.
However, one student didn’t talk to anyone and quickly rushed toward the Classroom door.
“Royce! Where are you going? Aren’t you going to hang out with us!?” One of the students called.
“Let him go, you idiot. Don’t you know about those First Decade students who target him? It is better to stay away from him.”
“Yeah, stay away from him, it’s not like we can help him either.”
“True True.”
The students muttered and started discussing among themselves.
This was another regular day for Zero Decade Class, unlike other classes, this class wasn’t divided into Basic, Advance and Prodigy sections.
All the students study together and are later put into different sections when they rise to Decade One.
“But why are those First Decade students targeting Royce?”
“I heard that it was because Royce bumped into them a year ago and it offended that Oswald.
I am not too sure of the details though, all I know is that it has been going on for a year now.
Every time they catch Royce, they would either beat him up or humiliate him.” e
“Hmm? Humiliate? How?”
“Well, they would sometimes ask him to go buy food for them, of course, that isn’t a problem, however, Royce would have to use his own Academy Points to buy the food and whenever he would return with food, those 3 would just throw everything at him for bringing ‘shitty’ food for them.
Sometimes, they would ask him to fill their glasses with water and bow in front of them just like a servant then they would throw the glass of water at him, sometimes, they would make him do squats in front of all the students and then embarrass him.
To be honest, I pity and commend Royce at the same time. If it was me, I would have left the Academy a long time ago.”
A boy muttered and other students turned silent.
“This is too cruel…”
“It is… that’s why Royce leaves the class as soon as it is over and then rushes towards his Room without getting caught by those three.”
The students then continued to discuss more as for Royce,
Well, just like usual, he was practically running away since the class is over.
“!!!”
Suddenly, Royce’s eyes widened in surprise when he saw those three boys walking together, he quickly turned around and started running away without alerting anyone.
“Oh! Look who it is! It is our dear friend!”
Royce, however, was unlucky and one of those boys saw him running away.
“Hey! Where are you running away, little rat? Won’t you play with your friends today?” Oswald muttered with a wide smile on his face and he started running behind Royce. His two friends smiled as they looked at each other and then, they followed behind him.
Oswald and his friends were Beginner Stage Cultivators, as for Royce, he was only an Apprentice, the three of them could easily catch him, however, to make things interesting, Oswald and his friends always lower their speed and make Royce run for as long as he can.
This was quite amusing for them indeed.
“Hey! Stop! We can’t catch up!”
“Hahaha! Yeah, little rat! Stop! I feel exhausted!”
“Hahaha!”
The three of them laughed, however, Royce didn’t care about them and continued running.
Many students saw this scene, however, no one bothered to do anything, for them, it was just 4 friends playing around.
They didn’t have the time to care about it.
Royce quickly passed many students, Oswald and his friends did the same as well.
Royce continued and then suddenly, he passed another student.
Oswald and the others were about to do that as well, however, Oswald was unable to dodge and bumped into the student.
“Uggh! You bastard! Don’t you have eyes!?” Oswald roared in rage.
“Who the fuck are you?” The student who Oswald bumped into questioned.
“I am Oswald Bourkee! The son of Viscount Bourkee!”
“You think I care about that?” Suddenly, the other student questioned.
“Huh? Aren’t you the one who asked m- Kkhhookhhk!” Oswald wanted to retort, however, before he could complete his sentence, the other student kicked his stomach with a knee.
Oswald’s eyes popped out in pain as he fell to the ground on his knees.
“*Cough* *Cough*”
In just one move, his breathing became erratic and he coughed a few times while holding his stomach.
The student, however, wasn’t done yet.
He grabbed Oswald’s hair and lifted him in the air with pure strength.
“First, you bumped into me, spoiling all my clothes with all this dirt, and then you even dared to shout at me?
You have some guts, don’t you?”
This time, Oswald finally saw the face of the man who hit him.
The man had black hair, golden eyes and was extremely good looking, however, right now, Oswald didn’t care about how the man looked,
“M-My b-brothe-”
He wanted to intimidate the student in front of him, however, suddenly, a big smile appeared on the Student’s face.
“I don’t care who your father or your brother is.
You messed with the wrong person.”
Saying that, Nux grabbed Oswald’s head and smashed it onto the floor.
*Bam*
