The academy had been in session for over a week, and most of the students had already formed their groups.
As man walked through the halls, as he entered the Class A of the freshman year, he was greeted by a girl with black hair. who was known for her enthusiastic personality.
"Hey, Noah. How are you?" Daphne asked, grinning from ear to ear.
"Hello, Daphne. Do you happen to know where Simon is?" Noah replied.
Noah, a freshman in the A class, had an above-average face with a unique look. He had a slim and fit build, with toned muscles that suggested he was active and athletic. However, he did not have the overly muscular look of a bodybuilder. One of his most notable features was his dark green hair, which contrasted against his light skin tone. His yellow eyes added to his distinct appearance, making him stand out from the crowd.
Daphne, on the other hand, was a girl with black hair that fell in soft waves around her face. She had a cheerful and outgoing personality that matched her bright smile and expressive brown eyes with a golden hue. Although she was not as strikingly beautiful as some of the other girls at the academy, she still had an attractive figure, with a slender build and good posture. Daphne's chest was relatively small compared to other girls, perhaps an A cup, but her beauty and charm more than made up for it
"I think he's right behind you," Daphne said, giggling. "He's been walking around with his nose buried in his smartwatch all morning."
As Noah turned around, he saw Simon engrossed in a book on his smartwatch.
Without warning, Noah decided to play a little prank on Simon. He snuck up behind him and shouted "Boo!"
Simon let out a loud scream and lost his balance, but luckily Daphne was there to catch him.
"You're such a scaredy-cat, Simon," Daphne teased, still holding onto him.
"Ha! You got me good, Noah," Simon said, still catching his breath from the scare.
"Can you free me?" Simon said sternly, feeling embarrassed after being caught off-guard.
"As you wish." Daphne replied, freeing Simon from her grasp. Simon wobbled a bit, almost falling to the ground, but managed to regain his balance just in time.
Noah and Daphne clapped, impressed by Simon's recovery. But Simon wasn't in the mood for jokes.
"By the way, what was that Noah?" Simon asked with an angry tone, adjusting his spectacles. "You scared me half to death!"
"Just little prank. You keep reading all the day." Noah said with dissatisfaction.
"I'm not like you guys who keep watching Nightsoul's live streams and loaf around." Simon said.
Simon was a young man with a scholarly aura around him. He had an above-average appearance, with sharp facial features that were accentuated by his black-rimmed spectacles. His face was clean-shaven and his dark brown hair was neatly combed to the side. He had a lean build, suggesting that he spent most of his time studying rather than playing sports.
Simon's clothing further reinforced his studious image. He wore a white shirt with a black tie, tucked into a pair of black slacks. His shoes were polished to a shine, and he carried a black leather briefcase, suggesting that he was always prepared for class.
Despite his serious appearance, Simon had a friendly smile that could put anyone at ease. His spectacles added to his charm, making him appear wise beyond his years. It was clear that he was a dedicated student who took his studies seriously, but he was also approachable and easy to talk to.
"Still we ranked higher than you in entrance exam." As always Daphne interjected.
Apparently, In entrance exam Noah was ranked 52th, Daphne 55th and Simon 60th.
As it was true, Simon couldn't refute her. He gritted his teeth.
"Btw, Simon. Did you watch yesterday's stream?" Noah asked.
"Yes. And In many times I have to tell you don't ask me that everytime." Simon rebuked.
"Let's go in the classroom, if Sir Killington got in class before that we will be punished again." Daphne suggested.
As this trio was walking they passed by Ken's group.
"Hello, Ken." Noah, greeted him.
As Noah and Ken were in same group for Dungeon activities. They became friends.
"Hello, Noah." Like that both group started chatting. In the end, Noah's group entered classroom late and was punished by Sir Killington.
In the S class, after completing the lecture Ken and James were talking.
"You have talked with seniors?" Ken asked.
"Yosh." James nodded.
Everything was going smoothly.
On the other hand, In private room of the cafeteria that blonde haired man from duel was slipping coffee elegantly.
"Young Master, we have gathered the information about Ken Astaseul." Some people came and handed bunch of papers to the Blonde man.
However, after handing papers they mysteriously disappeared. Still blonde man looked unfazed.
He quickly read through the papers. After reading it, Small flame came out of his finger and turned that papers to ash.
"Oh, Ken Astaseul, why do you want to get in my way?" Blonde man mumbled with mischievous smile.
'Things are getting interesting.'
In the library of the academy, a girl was reading books peacefully.
Suddenly, she felt something and her eyes glinted.
"Looks like peaceful times are going to end." She murmured in low tone.
Still she looked unfazed by it and continued reading the book where she left it.
In one of the S-class dorms, Emma and Kaya were having a girl talks meeting.
While Lily was working hard to meet the deadline to release the merchandise.
'That guy doesn't even help a single time.' Doesn't he have fear that I will steal some money?
If Lily knew that Rain had already installed several monitoring bots on most of the main characters, she would be shocked.
In second floor of the cafeteria,
Rain's fan club was having a private meeting.
A dozen of high members held a special meeting. All of them had wore black hoods. However from outline you can see all of them were beautiful girls.
"President, we got a tip about the 'Enemy' from a credible source."
Enemy was a code name given to the hacker that hacked their website.
"Tell me identity of the 'Enemy'." President said in cold tone. Her voice was filled with killing intent. She still hasn't restored the photos of Rain in her phone.
"It's work of..."
In the Karoon City,
In staff dormatories, a brown hair boy was reading management journals of the Holmes family.
He was Mark.
"Mark, sleep now, don't overwork." A stern voice came from outside of the door.
"Yes, Father." Markes hurriedly closed all journals. He turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.
'After Young Master left everyday is boring, I hope I meet him soon.' Mark thought before sleeping.
In one of the rooms, Charles and Carla were discussing about family conditions.
"Were you able to find out the traitor?" Carla asked.
In response, Charles just shook his head.
Even with all of his network, he couldn't find anything.
Somehow that evil organization was lying down. Like some of their members were died. Charles wondered who would be that reckless to do that thing.
"I have other good news though. The potion company that I opened on Rain's name is running like rocket. Tons of profit is being made." Charles said enthusiastically.
"But how can we send it to Rain?" Carla tilted her head.
"I have a way. Hehe." Charles smirked.
"Tell me." Carla said.
"Give a kiss." Charles demanded.
"Shameless. Hmph." Carla puffed her cheeks. Still in the end, she gave a kiss on Charles' cheeks.
"Now tell me." Carla said. Her face was red as tomato.
"Apparently, Rain opened new bank account to get the money for his live streaming. Although you can't find that account number because of privacy issues. However I bought that company. Now I know new account number of him." Charles said proudly.
On the island, Rain was lying on his bed.
He just returned to his home after completing his daily training.
Soon, he got a message in his smartwatch.
[30 Platinum coins credited to your account by Anonymous.]
Rain stared at the message. He blinked few times.
"Who gave me this amount of money?"
He was confused.
However, it was easy for him to find out.
Soon he found out the identity of the person who sent him money.
Rain sighed.
"Those guys don't know why I left that thing there. They will soon need this money. I should invest this money so I can use it on my training and help them when they need it." Rain decided.
As he lied down on his bed, he started remembering how he regained his past memories. It was almost a month now.
I died by getting hit from truck Kun.
After that I found myself in different body. Soon I got a cheat- System, which is rarely useful and untrustworthy.
I came to know that I am in the game world and I am Villain of the game- Rain Holmes.
Gradually, I adapted to this world. Became extra character. With my knowledge of the plotline I got some hidden pieces and restored my strength.
I even left my relationships of past behind and freed myself. Although I had to pretend to give some gifts to Heroines in case of avoiding bad outcomes. It was still worthy to get freedom by that.
I came to this island, did many adventures. Such as climbing, underwater diving, exploring. I hope I can take rest like this rest of my life.
Just when Rain was thinking like this, an alarm rang. It was time for training now.
'Looks like I can't get proper vacation till the plot finishes.' Rain thought.
He stood and started walking outside of his room.
Working hard for the vacation.
