Chapter 89: Zero Class [II] (Bonus)
"Wait!" someone shouted, opening the classroom door.
All the students turned to see him. Including Theos, who turned to see him, a smile on his lips.
'As expected of the protagonist, coming late to the first day of the academy,' he thought, remembering that this was practically the same scenario as the novel.
Unlike Theos' smile, Rundel frowned. "Who are you?" he asked in a deep voice.
Alan cringed a little this time, feeling afraid. But instantly, a bit of pride shone in his eyes, returning to his upright posture.
"I'm Alan Roy!" he exclaimed, expecting the professor's eyes to widen in surprise.
After all, he is well known throughout the academy for having a Dragon Path, a Golden Dragon! Along with his other Electricity Path, he is one of the rare cases of Dual Path.
"You're late, but I'll let you through just this once," Rundel said slowly, emphasizing the words "just this once."
Hearing Rundel's words, Alan felt a bit of disappointment but, most of all, embarrassment.
Still, he did as the teacher told him, entering the classroom and sitting in one of the chairs in the corner, next to the window.
'Why do all the main characters have to sit next to the window? Do they have a disorder from sitting next to windows or something?' wondered Theos.
He hadn't even thought of the idea of sitting next to an advantage. Why? The question would be... Why sit there, when he has his two girlfriends waiting for him in the middle chairs? He didn't want to be one of those people who ignored his wives and then treated him with more attention.
He loves them, and they love him; what more could he ask for? He could only enjoy himself...
Putting his relationships aside for a moment, Theos fixed his gaze on the last 4 on the list yet to be called.
"Belia," the professor called, causing one or another student to frown.
"Present...," a girl with sky blue hair said, her eyes revealing determination, but also shyness.
This rare combination of emotions made them look extremely tender to each other, especially to Alan, who took an immediate interest in her.
'Belia... The Swordswoman without a name, and a sword without a Path,' Theos recalled one of his... Favorite female characters in the novel.
One could say that she is and is not a heroine, since she helped Alan a lot, but she never fell madly in love with him. She admired and respected him, but never fell in love with him.
Known worldwide for being a skilled Swordswoman.
The others viewed her with a little suspicion; after all, she has no last name, which means she is not a Noble.
And unlike Alice, who also has no last name, almost everyone knows that she is very close to Theos; several even know that they are boyfriend and girlfriend.
But, this girl who appeared out of nowhere?
They had nothing against her, but this case is very special, entering Class Zero as a commoner with no significant connections to great nobles is strange.
But with that strangeness, there was also admiration and respect. If she managed to be here, it is because of her great effort and dedication. Something that very few nobles know....
"Well, sit down...", Rundel said, moving on to the next on the list, the last three.
Despite being the last three, this had nothing to do with oldest to least or youngest to oldest, it meant nothing, not even the strongest. They were just handed out randomly.
"Nolan," Rundel called.
Another student stood up. "Present," he said.
His appearance was no big deal, a thin man with light brown hair and amber eyes. He's a little handsome, but not too much compared to Theos, Arnold, or Alan.
However, his confidence in his voice is quite unusual among commoners when they meet nobles. read first at m,v,l,e,m p _y,r
"That guy is strange," Luna narrowed her eyes.
"Yeah, I have a bad feeling about him," Alice nodded.
Theos smiled. Indeed, that overconfident guy is not as simple as his image suggests.
But for now, Theos didn't pay much attention to him. Focusing on the last two people Rundel called out.
"Astaroth Darlex," the professor said with a frown.
Suddenly, a man who caught everyone's attention as he entered, but at the same time no one could look, stood up from his seat. "Present," he said in a deep voice.
His face revealed two golden eyes and gray hair, his skin had a slight tan, and his indifferent eyes, but for some reason, extremely threatening, no one wanted to approach him.
Just looking at him Alan frowned. However, Theos smiled. "Astaroth... The Former Royal Family of the Fairies," he muttered in a low tone.
Not even Alice and Luna heard him, to Theos' fortune. In front of all the students, this is the only young man who could be considered a calamity.
One of the few characters in the novel that Theos is halfway considered a friend, an ally.
He is the rightful Prince of the Fairy Clan of the Denkalia Kingdom, but no one recognizes him for the disasters his family made hundreds of years ago.
All the students frowned. Each one listened to the stories told by their relatives about the Astaroth Family; no one had a favorable opinion of that family.
Each of its members is despised by everyone. And even if Astaroth was not their surname, if not their first name, still no one could confirm that with certainty.
However, Astaroth was not affected by these looks of contempt, fear, or hatred. Simply his ice-cold eyes and raised chin showed more than enough attitude to the stares he received.
And thanks to his height of 1.88 meters, the others saw him as huge; being a fairy, he is abnormally large.
"Okay," Rundel said, moving on to the next and last person on the list.
Knowing the last person missing, all the students turned to look at a woman with bluish-white hair, gray eyes, and a temperament so cold and icy that no one dared approach her.
"Aurora White."
