As expected, Viktor soon got bored and felt sleepy hearing all the introductory speeches and stuff. Even the principal was some old man named Brugez, and he just seemed too slow and lengthy with his speeches. The man had a fat potbelly and average height with half-bald hair and clean, shaved face.
He looked like some researcher who made his way to becoming a principal of such a big college.
Viktor also took a look at the other teachers, only to see that all of them were either old or males while the rest weren't just his type.
However, he learned that he was going to study in a different batch as opposed to Sayana and Tiana, who were in the same batch. This was something he had specifically asked Taya for certain reasons. But he would make sure to have some common electives with Tiana and Sayana so that for some classes, he would get to sit in the same classroom as them.
He also learned that classes begin at 9:30 AM and end at 2 PM, which would give him enough time to do his part-time jobs and slip back inside the hostel whenever he wanted.
Still, there was this attendance thing in the dorm where the warden would come to check on the students and see if they were present in the dorm. This was something he would have to deal with later on.
There were also strict curfews for the students to return to their dorms on time. For boys, it was 7 PM, but for girls, it was even more strict, and they would have to return by at least 6 PM during the weekdays.
It was around 2 PM when the induction program finally ended, and all the students were told to report to class from tomorrow onwards.
Since most of them had got comfortable in their dorms and set up their things, they decided to go outside and roam around Luton Town and see what it had to offer for entertainment and all.
"Yo, let's check out the Grand Mall in this town," Butkus eagerly suggested, to which all of them agreed.
But right when Viktor was wondering where the two girls were…
*Poke* Poke*
He felt somebody poking him from behind and inwardly smiled as he turned around to see Sayana with another girl with specs behind her who was petite but very pretty and cute enough to make people feel as if their sacred duty was to protect this girl.
"Dorian..uhm…do you want to come with us? We decided to go and check out the town. Ah, this is Talia. Talia, this is Dorian, my friend," Sayana said as she gestured to Talia. She asked Dorian to come with her since she was worried if he might feel lost going out and had no idea that Dorian had made plans with his roommates to go out.
Talia's eyes brightened up as she clapped and excitedly asked, "Wow, you have a boyfriend?"
"No, no! He is just my friend," Sayana said hurriedly, feeling embarrassed about having yet another misunderstanding.
Talia tilted her head in confusion, "Yes, but isn't he a boy and your friend? So boyfriend?"
Viktor couldn't believe a country bumpkin like this girl existed just like his alter identity and even said a similar dialogue he once said to Sayana.
Sayana had a blinking expression and quickly explained to her the difference and wondered if all villagers had no concept of a boyfriend? Do they just directly marry the person they like?
Talia's lips parted in visible confusion and surprise since it seemed as if she never expected the word boyfriend to mean something that was much more intimate.
"I see…Oh, Saya, I am sorry. My little brain is just too slow on the uptake with things like these. Anyway, Dorian, pleased to meet you. Since you are Saya's friend, I am happy to be your friend as well, hehe."
Seeing this bubbly yet cute petite girl, Viktor said while taking a second look at this girl, "Pleased to meet you as well. I am ready to go with you guys."
"Dood, how come this Goodboi knows all the pretty girls? This is just unfair."
"Yo, maybe that's his charm as a pro. We can never question the pros. They just work differently. But so what? At least we get to hang out with girls like them because of him. Let other peeps think that we are in a different class than them, hehe."
"As per what I analyzed, prodigies are on a different level of their own, and surely the girls always seek out the alpha. Goodboi is the alpha among us, so it's only natural," Bucky said with a look of contemplation, trying to explain Dorian's charms to his friends.
However, right before they were going to leave…
"Goodboi, you wanna come with us?" Tiana asked as she suddenly came forward to his surprise.
He unconsciously asked, "But why?"
"Eh…" Tiana was taken aback by his sudden question while all three of his roommates were looking at him with an expression of, "Are you crazy, bro?"
After all, who in the right mind would question a hottie if they were asking them to hang out with them?
But then they thought that since she was his cousin, he might not be interested.
Tiana batted her beautiful eyelashes as she glanced away and replied in an evasive tone, "Of course, it's because I thought you might get lost hanging out all alone. So I just asked since my mother also asked me to keep an eye on you."
Even though Tiana said this, inwardly, she wanted him to come with her because hanging out with him was a different experience, and she wanted to explore that.
Sayana was also surprised that Tiana wanted Dorian to come with her and inwardly let out a low sigh, thinking that she and Talia would probably go alone.
"Okay! Then how about all of us go out? Butkus knows a good place, right?"
"Of course, hehe. We won't even notice the hours passing," Butkus was just eager to spend more time with Anya, who again passed a subtle smile at him, making him feel as if his heart was floating away.
Tiana didn't see this coming but thinking that it wouldn't hurt to hang out with Sayana and the others for a change, she nodded.
However, these freshers, especially the girls, had no idea that their seniors were looming around like predators to catch them once they were done with the induction program.
Some men among the seniors were asking around the pretty fresher girls to just come out for drinks along with their friends, while some senior girls were looking for cute boys.
And unsurprisingly, a group of five senior men along with three senior girls suddenly came forward in front of Viktor's group and asked, "Hi, young ladies and gentlemen. How about we get to know each other? Nice and slow over some drinks, eh?" A handsome young man, looking around 20, asked with a charming smile.. But those who knew his identity would feel honored just to have a word with him.
