Chapter 13 First Class, And Vanessa

There were around 40 new students who came with Damian, which were all the ones the school had for the first year. Everyone else was older; therefore, they were in their second or third year.

Forty students having the same classes at the same time would be a pain in the ass, so they divided it into two different classes to make it more manageable for the teachers and more accessible for the students to learn without interruption.

At that point, Damian had his two only friends in the class with him: Magnus and Aurora, but he also had someone he disliked, Joffrey.

"Things can't be the exact way we wanted them to be," thought Damian as he looked for his classroom and chose a desk.

Aurora sat on his left, and Magnus on his right, all in the back of the classroom. People kept showing, and when Joffrey came in, the first thing he did was stare at Damian savagely, but he did not do anything and went to choose his desk before class started.

Garmony Upper School was not a place one could do anything like start a fight inside the classroom. Joffrey would wait for the right moment to strike, and Damian knew that well.

All the students chose their desks and waited for the first teacher to come. Damian wanted it to be Vanessa, as it was someone he knew, but also someone who acted strange with him, and he wished to learn more, but it was not!

The person who came was a skinny man, who wore glasses, and had a thick book in his hands. He wore the same uniform as all the other teachers: black attire with boots, and gloves, looking like a soldier from an anime of alchemy.

A loud bang echoed when the man put the book on the professor's desk. He looked at the students in front and said, "I am Isac, a researcher of monsters. I will teach you about the different beasts and how to track them and kill them theoretically and practically."

It was not the teacher responsible for only combat, but he still had it inside the subjects he would teach.

"Any questions?" Isac said.

One of the students raised his hand, and Isac said, "go on, ask."

Why did the school skip the other tests? Not that I am complaining about joining more quickly, but is something wrong?"

Damian rejoiced inside, as that was one of the questions he also had but did not dare to ask, and he was almost one hundred percent sure Isac would not answer it.

"I am afraid this is not something for me to say it. If someone wishes to tell it in the future, it will be the rector."

"Now, any other questions?"

No one else raised their hands, so Isac started his class.

"So let us start!"

Isac drew on the board like a professional artist, all of it in seconds. Was his superhuman ability doing it? No, Damian did not believe that.

"Beasts can have various sizes and shapes; remember, the deadliest beasts often don't look like it."

There were two draws on the board, one of a terrifying beast and another of a strange-looking rabbit with three ears. Most students believed the first beast was the one they should watch out for — Damian included — but it was not the case!

The rabbit was stronger and more deadly, making the students understand the previous words from Isac's mouth.

Damian knew the number of beasts leaving the dungeons was constantly increasing, which was a significant problem for humankind. Sure, some humans had superpowers that went to the evil side, killing other humans for fun and trying to achieve their dream of world domination.

But that was not something the humans worried about; their real problem was the increased number of beasts, who had already destroyed some villages in the countryside. Some even said that if their numbers kept growing, an apocalypse could be coming.

The class about the beasts lasted for two hours, and then everyone had a small break before the next one.

"So much information on the first class, and we already have books to read and assignments!" Magnus complained to Damian and Aurora after they left Isac's class with loads of work to do.

Damian took the chance and said, "Magnus, with so much homework to do, I don't know if we can get that arm workout done..."

"Your ass! We will go even if we don't finish the homework. Getting bigger arms is more important."

"..."

Their break between classes was thirty minutes, but they had classes from morning to 7 pm, which was tiring even with the breaks they had in between.

"Let's go grab something to eat," Magnus said, pointing at the sign which said 'cafeteria.'

"Again?"

"Bro, our class last 2 hours. It is time for my second meal of the day!"

The more Damian knew Magnus, the more he looked and acted like a pro bodybuilder. But Damian was not feeling like eating again, so he said, "Imma go chill in the library during my break. See yall later, Magnus, Aurora."

Magnus saw his friend leaving to read books but turned to Aurora and said, "are you coming with me?"

"Sure," Aurora said.

She did not feel like eating, but she did not want to leave Magnus alone, and he was one of her two friends.

Damian walked into the school's halls, looking for a sign indicating where the library was. Truth be told, he did not want to bother someone and ask about it.

Then, a soft voice entered his ears, "looking for something?"

He turned to see a woman dressed like the other teachers, with a ponytail and glasses. It was Vanessa, and she looked as gorgeous as ever.

Damian was not surprised to find her there, as she was a teacher, after all, so he said as calmly as he could, "I am looking for the library."

"Really? I was going there just now," Vanessa said, turning around and making Damian watch her butt.

"Come, follow me," she said with a provocating smile.
