Chapter 586 A New Person

While Marie had to be going through her transformation, Gary looked at the remainder of his points, and going by the numbers, he had enough to evolve both Kai and Olivia to the next Grade. Whether this would result in them advancing in their Class, he wasn't so sure. After all, his own Class Promotion had been the result of reaching Level 25, but his Pack members didn't have any Levels.

'I should probably stop here and do it the next time I see it in person. It's likely that I'll have to make a choice between two options for them as well, and it would be better to ask their opinion rather than deciding it then.'

Sending out another text, Gary apologised to Marie for what she must be experiencing right now. He also send another text to Kai not to worry if she suddenly fell into extreme pain because she was simply going through the same process as he had when becoming a Shapeshifter Class. He also asked to be kept updated on any changes. Pretty pleased with himself, Gary finally decided to get some shut-eye for the night.

The next day, Gary was attending the lessons of the Altered academy as if nothing had happened. During recess he talked with his friends as if nothing had happened the day prior. They brought up their future lessons, and some said they were more confident compared to before based on the experience they had.

Gary did notice Izzy was quieter than normal, which seemed to be related to her wound that had yet to disappear. However, once lessons finished, it was time for Gary and Numba to head somewhere. The two had been lucky enough to make it exactly one day prior to their special lesson, so that's where they were headed..

'The situation in Slough took longer than I thought. Which means, I have two more of these special lessons to attend before I decide to take the Altered assessment and get out of here. I made my decision and told the others already.' Gary thought.

The thing was, Gary had gotten a boost from the Altered that day, far more than he would have gotten from the beasts that had their crystal removed. So honestly, unlike before, he didn't feel like he would lose out too much if he stopped attending. Nevertheless, he would still have his debut match to become a proper AFC fighter.

The two had met up with Crowley and were walking through the halls. They went to the room they were in before, putting on their red and blue uniforms and that's when they could see someone they had completely forgotten about, someone who had been impacted by their visit to Nosburg personally.

When looking at Sty, the teenage boy appeared to be tired, he was weary as he put on his uniform and even stuck his leg through the arm pocket then on the wrong side a few times. It was quite clear that he wasn't in the right place.

When Numba saw him, and although he hated to admit it, but he felt bad for the guy. Although he was a Grade A scumbag, he was also a kid who had just lost his father, even if he had been the leader of the Scatterbugs. When meeting back at the AFA, Nuba had expected Sty to go crazy, to attempt to attack the two of them, or shout at them or something, but he hadn't said a word to either him or Gary.

'Losing a father, even if they are a D*ck would be bad for anyone.' Numba thought. Although he knew that he was merely adopted by Harry Cardenez, to him he was like his real father, and he knew he would be heartbroken if anything happened to him. Perhaps it was even worse to lose someone you actually were related to…

That's when they could see Apollo coming over and stopped just in front of Gary.

"You were away for a while, I was starting to get worried that you would leave the academy." Apollo smiled. "But, then I heard that your gang went ahead and took over the Scatterbugs, I can only guess that's the reason you went back."

Numba couldn't help but smirk inwardly. 'If only you knew what role exactly he was playing in that.'

"Your gang is impressive, just like you." Apollo continued to praise the green haired teenaer. "Just to let you know, my family has decided to take in Sty, so don't feel too bad. It's not like you had anything to do with the decision. It sucks, but things like these happen and let's get on with this assessment."

Things were going smoothly, perhaps too smoothly for some strange reason, but Gary kept his mouth shut to not jinx himself. He preferred to stay uninvolved in any future academy matter since he would be leaving soon anyway.

"I have an announcement about today's assessment." Crowley informed them. "Due to the performance both teams have shown during the inspection, the beast chosen for today is a particularly strong one. For your own sake, I can only highly advise you to work together. Today isn't a time to make this into a contest on who is stronger, so your main focus should be on surviving this encounter!"

Gary was ready, and despite his teacher's warning he didn't feel afraid, now even by a little bit. After his fight with Midwak, a beast seemed like a minor thing in comparison, but still a great stepping stone on his journey to get stronger. After all, he had a powerful Werewolf on his back that was going to try to take his spot each and every month now.

'Let's go!'
