Chapter 186: Chapter 186 Club.

Soa, who happened to see Mary in sight, knitted his brows, and his mood was dropped by her appearance, the person he didn't want to get involved with. Mary, who felt a gaze directed at her, turned toward the source and found Soma, who jerked his head in a hurry and with slight frustration on his face, which made Mary tilt her head in wonder.

"Heeh, So soma like that kind of girl?".

"Excuse me?!".

Serafina, who noticed their brief exchange, opened her mouth with her teasing grin and began to poke Soma's patience. But Soma's mood dropped lower. It hit rock bottom, and he exhaled a huge amount of air from his lungs. Then, with his entire being ignored, Serafina's taunts.

"Hina, Xiao Lian, I'm leaving first".

"Eh? Okay, I will catch up later".

"I'm staying for a while".

"Got it. See you later".

"Wait, wait!"

Serafina, who noticed Soma's mood, faced ashen as she suddenly rose from her seat and grabbed Soma's sleeves to prevent him from leaving the seat. Soma, who was stopped, shot his shrunken eyes toward Serafina.

"I am sorry. It seems I have gone too far with the joke".

Soma, who finally realized what he had done, literally sighs as he flapped his butt toward the seat once more. "What is wrong with me? Serafina is not wrong. I am the one who should calm my troubled heart first". He began to regulate his breathing until it regained its calm. Then, slowly he turned his sight to Serafina, who seemed shaken because of the attitude he showed earlier.

"I am sorry for my attitude earlier. I feel displeased when you match me with that girl over there".

"Over there, you mean Mary?".

"What of it?".

Serafina and Lucy, who are in the same class as Mary, know her nature very well. She was a well-mannered girl and a bit mature for her age. Mary is also one of the student council members, just like the two in front of Soma.

"No, it's just…".

Soma began to feel conflicted about how he could escape this probing question. Salvation came when a chime from a bell that rang across the room alarmed the students who were still in the cafeteria to stand from their seat and tidy up their utensils hurriedly.

"The homeroom is about to start. Time sure does fly when you are having a blast".

"It seems we took our time today".

Serafina and Lucy began to stand up from their place, and simultaneously, the trio also stood up, leaving a huge question mark on the girl's head because of Soma's sudden silence.

However, looking at his darkened expression, the girls hold their tongues back and dismiss the thought of trying to discover his reason for hating Mary.

"Then you guys don't be late for your class".

"See you later".

Serafina and Lucy said their farewells before they turned their backs and left the trio in the hallway.

"We should hurry".

"Right".

"Um".

The girls who saw Soma's sunken mood exchanged a few glances as they hesitated to touch his sensitive heart, but they were also curious as to why Soma could show that much animosity toward a person.

Hina mainly, who had already been close with Soma before coming to this academy, noticed his change in expression when his gaze was directed toward the girl named Mary. This also happened in the entrance exam, where many male candidates were smitten by her beauty, only Soma showing his murderous aura.

"Are you curious?".

"Yeah, but…". Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"...".

Soma, who heard their consideration toward him, loosened his facial muscles as he sighed.

"Thank you. I will tell you later. I promise".

"Okay".

"Mm".

In the second half of the classroom session, the atmosphere felt a bit calmer and subdued as the initial excitement from the earlier P.E. Class dropped. Students showing signs of fatigue. However, they were not mere regular students. They are the people who had been chosen by the prestigious Hero Academy, making them a few selected special among the other.

Despite the fatigue they feel in their body, they keep pushing themselves in attending the class to not get behind in the score.

As a matter of fact, many of the students are still actively participating, raising their hands with questions or comments. In contrast, others might quietly work through assignments, their focus still intense.

Soma, who has already obtained a considerable amount of knowledge regarding the lesson the teacher teaches on the board, gawking at his pen, twirling it around his finger. At the same time, his mind wanders toward the earlier event. "Mary…".

In the story Chronicles Saga, Mary is one of the villains that will create a stir in the academy with her deceit and powerful spell. She managed to trick many people into becoming her prey just to satisfy her own curiosity and the mission she had been given.

It also brought his memories back toward the arc in the academy, which was filled with much turmoil for the first year involving Leon as its center, helping him to grow as a person or a savior, and Mary is one of those stepping stones.

Soma began to rack his brain, trying to solve the problem that would arise soon in the academy. However, should he solve it alone? After pondering that question for a while. "I should just focus on the things in my grasp". He muttered those lines while stealing a glance at the girls beside him.

A chime of the bell that signals the end of the class on this day rang across the entire academy. The female teacher who teaches about history began to say her farewell and stepped down from the podium, leaving the class.

Hina and Xiao Lian, done with the brain activity, stretched their stiff bodies because of the prolonged absence of movement.

"Silver hair, where do you want to go?".

"Mm, maybe to a billboard in the center area. I'm looking for a club that interests me".

Soma, who heard the girl's conversation, raised his brows slightly before speaking.

"Club? Let's go, Xiao Lian".

"Soma, do you have any interest in it?".

"Yeah, I have some matters on my side. How about you Hina?".

"Well, since the two of you are coming, count me in too".

"Mm".

"Okay, let's move out".

After deciding what sort of action they would take, the three of them began to leave the classroom and walk in the hallway, crowded with the other students because of the finished class.

The three of them finally stepped outside the building and are currently on their way toward the center area where the billboard is erected.

"It's here".

Xiao Lian, who was unusually in high tension, pointed her finger toward the billboard. There are no souls beside them in the area. Many of them had already seen the notice this morning and already decided which club they wanted to join.

Hina and Soma approached the billboard under the guidance of the excited Xiao Lian. There are many fliers that are plastered on the billboard with an enticing color and announcements to bait the applicants.

Soma, who observed the fliers, began to pinpoint his choices, for he knew a tragedy would happen in one of the clubs later, and the event would involve a Heroine and Leon. He waited for Xiao Lian, who seemed to have already decided where she would join.

Hina, on the other hand, felt conflicted as she already had a choice but still hesitated, for she doubted that she could fit in the place because of her personality.

"So, have you decided which club you two want to join?".

"I have, but..".

"Mm, I have. Let's check it now!".
