Chapter 306 305. Cheater.

Name:Villain of my own novel Author:
"Oh, look at you, love birds; you aren't leaving each other even in the other world." A cheery comment resounded throughout the classroom, attracting the attention of those present.

"Arngrim." Eshwar's voice sounded as a bright smile appeared on the man's face. The man had a normal athletic build; he had light golden blonde hair and hazel eyes. Next to him was a bulky man who stood silently with a small calming smile on his face. Seeing the curious gazes of the cadets, he turned towards them and bowed politely.

"Hello, I'm Louie; nice to meet you." Louie introduced himself, bringing a small smile to the cadets faces, who nodded their heads, returning a polite bow.

"Where are Henry and Core?" Eshwar asked with a slight frown.

"Hm, I don't know; I haven't met them since we came to this world." Arngrim said and turned to face Louie.

"We thought they would already be here." Louie said looking back and forth at Eshwar and Arngrim.

"Oh, almost everybody is in the same class." A sweet woman's mumble sounded behind Louie, and a group of seven walked into the room and made their way towards the podium.

"I'm Katline." Katline introduced herself in a depressed tone.

"I'm Violet." Violet introduced herself in a confident tone.

"I'm Seo Hana." "I'm Katharine." Seo Hana and Katharine introduced themselves in an emotionless tone.

"I'm Se-Seol So-Young!" Seol introduced herself, stuttering.

"I'm Gang Jiwoo." Jiwoo introduced himself with a confident and reliable aura surrounding him.

"I am Vinny." Vinny introduced himself with extreme malice hidden behind his words, which was felt by everyone present even though Vinny seemed to be hiding it extremely well. It was only for a split second, but Vinny's gaze turned malicious in the instance that it landed on Eshwar.

"How are the people from the other world so good-looking?" Mumbled a man in the middle of the class, to which the class agreed unanimously, thinking they had a chance with the new ones, but the hope slightly dwindled when the gazes of the newly introduced women landed on Eshwar, who had an innocent look on his face.

They walked towards the bench where Eshwar and Isha sat and sat next to and in front of them before turning to face Eshwar in unison.

"Hmph! You cheat!" They said it in unison with a scoff, as if they had practised it previously.

"Wha-" Eshwar spoke up with an innocent look on his face, but his expression froze when another indifferent voice sounded next to him.

"Eshwar...." Isha called out with a smile on her face, which made those who looked at her smile flinch for reasons they didn't know.

"Ye-Yes?" Eshwar asked with a slightly pale expression.

"Hahahaha, I can't believe THAT Eshwar is getting scared." Arngrim laughed and found himself a seat nearer Eshwar's, with Louie sitting next to him. Soon, their desks were crowded with curious kids who were interested in what the other world was like and also had the intention of becoming their friends.

Minutes later.

The crowd calmed down; everybody except for those who were already in a "faction" made friends with the people from the other world. As soon as the crowd cleared up, Arngrim's searching gaze landed on two figures that sat in front of Vinny. The man chatted cheerfully with Vinny, while the petite figure next to the man sat in a fearful manner.

With a frown on his face, Arngrim elbowed Louie with his index finger on his lips, indicating Louie not to speak out loud.

"Why is Core like that?" Arngrim whispered with a slight lean towards Louie.

"And why is Henry speaking with Vinny so friendily?" Arngrim asked in a whisper, as the recently appearing frown on Louie's face deepened.

"Except for the times he was with Eshwar, I haven't ever seen him speak so cheerfully, even with me." Arngrim said, suggesting that everything about Henry now was suspicious.

"Shall we talk with Eshwar? Or Isha?" Louie suggested, thinking it would be better to look into it together than by themselves; it was the kind of suggestion that Arngrim would agree to, but this time, he leaned back, glanced at the happily chatting Eshwar, and leaned towards Louie again.

"I.... don't want to disturb his rose-tinted world, at least this early." Arngrim said with a small smile, to which Louie nodded in agreement with a slightly bright smile.

"We'll follow them first then." Said Arngrim.

"You want to follow an assassin?" Louie asked in a whisper, with his brows raised and a mocking smile on his face.

"Ho? Is that a dare?" Arngrim looked at Louie with a confident smirk on his face, and noticing Louie's nod, Arngrim nodded in agreement to Louie's dare.

"We'll see who wins." Louie replied and offered a handshake.

"Well, even though I know I'll win, good luck to both of us." Arngrim shook his hand, sealing the pact in which the loser had to do any favour the winner asked for, no matter what it was.

After another few minutes.

Reynolds walked into the class carrying a heavy, suffocating aura, making the class go silent with each step he took, and the classroom was suffocatingly silent by the time he reached the podium.

His gaze flitted on the cadets, who sat with solemn expressions on their faces; since Reynolds' entrance was like that, they couldn't help but try to match his atmosphere. Soon, his gaze landed on Eshwar, and the memory of Eshwar's sword's light-devouring line falling down on him flashed in his mind, enticing his greed for strength and enlightenment to reach the true pinnacle of swordsmanship.

With a childlike expression and stars twinkling in his eyes, he said, "From today onwards, we'll have serious "combat trainings!"" Reynolds announced, glancing at everybody with an apathetic expression, which made his previous childlike expression seem fake.

And with those words from his mouth, as if a wave had swept through, the cadets began to scream and murmur in excitement and anticipation.

"Silence!" Reynolds roared, silencing the entire class.

"I have another announcement to make."

"We'll be having new cadet-professor events from this month onwards, like we had in the academic starting years. It was an internal event that gave cadets the chance to be and feel like professors, giving them an opportunity to improve and make a name for themselves, but since the activities of the fanatics had been active in the few previous years, the event was halted abruptly due to the busy schedule of the academic staffs, but in this year's batch, we have many greater talents gathered here, so it was unanimously decided that we'll host that monthly events again." Reynolds announced, which garnered a loud cheer of excitement from the cadets; some inevitably even glanced at Eshwar, thinking he was the reason for the event to start again.

"The first month's cadet-professor will be decided by an interclass tournament, or you could simply call it a sparring contest."
