Chapter 239: Days Before The Festival [1]
[Nearly 1 Month Later]
Amon let out a sharp yawn, pushing his head into his arms in an attempt to drift off to sleep.
Unfortunately, he couldn't focus on his sleep for long as the teacher in front of him on the podium spoke up.
"Okay, we will end the class here. Since there are 2 days left before the long-awaited Cultural Festival, I won't give you guys any work or assignments for the next week.
You can enjoy it to your fullest and have fun with your family and friends. Though, I would still implore you guys to at least give a glance at your studies."
At the mention of 'Cultural Festival', Amon's ears perked up and he looked up.
"That's all I have to say. Enjoy this small weekend of yours before the festival starts and hopefully, I'll be able to meet you all at the festival." The man gave the class a simple smile. Grabbing his things, he walked out of the class as the class bid him farewell.
Amon's gaze was fixated on his departing back.
Wearing a formal brown suit with square shaped glasses on his black eyes, the man gave off a simple and office-like vibe.
His black hair was also neatly combed.
The man's name was Mark Florip, a substitute teacher to their class for the time being.
Ever since Athena's disappearance to the capital, he had been given charge of the class.
Fortunately, Amon felt no bad vibes or malicious intentions from him, nor did he remember him having any importance to the plot.
As he moved out of the class and out of Amon's view, the latter's focus drifted off to the second most important matter.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Cultural Festival.
A month had passed since he had reconciled with Katherine and that incident.
In that time, a lot of things had changed.
The first development that came into play was the extension of the Cultural Festival. Rather than it being in one and a half weeks, the new principal pushed it till a month later. Yes, temporarily, until there was a decision to Arthur's case, the Imperiac had appointed a new principal to the academy since Athena refused to come back until Arthur was freed.
Amon couldn't blame her. Even though Arthur was the strongest and there was no chance the Imperiac would kill him, in that jail cell alone, he was powerless.
In his weakest, anyone could kill him. And being at the top of the hierarchy, one naturally had a lot of enemies.
Athena could never leave him alone and hand him over to Imperiac and this was a decision that Amon found himself respecting.
Despite how much it had burdened Amelia.
Though, she was rumored to be the most beautiful person in the Kingdom, even above
Athena.
Of course, Amon couldn't say it without any confirmation, especially when he found Katherine and Amelia to be more beautiful.
Since her appointment here a month ago, she had made no appearance to the public as well.
It was always said she was a busy person with the Black Tear and her own family so it made
sense.
Sighing, Amon focused his attention back to the Festival now.
It would start on Monday and last for the whole upcoming week.
It was Friday today so he still had 2 days to prepare for it.
But for Amon, he was fucked even in these 2 days.
It was because of the midterms a month ago.
Of course because of the incident, the battle royale and the catacombs exploration had been
canceled.
They wouldn't be counted in the results, so it had been announced.
After that, because of this whole principal and administrative issues, it had taken a while for
them to compile all the results.
And now, they are finally done.
The results were going to be announced tomorrow, at night alongside a party for the
midterms celebration and also as a prequel opening to the festival.
And of course, Amon had to go there with everyone for the results.
Especially, since being aware of his efforts, he knew his rank placement. There was not a
single doubt in his mind.
No.
There was not a single doubt in everyone's mind for his rank placement.
