Chapter 43 The Intimidating Second Years
"However, while some of their actions were praiseworthy, some could be condemnable. Though they might have shown the world their lights in times of need, their condemnable actions was denying the world of their symbiote abilities."
The moment he said this, the look of passion and the gusto in his voice disappeared immediately living nothing but a solemn expression.
"My point is, what they had shown the world was too little even though the world seem peaceful who knows how long this might last? this moment might be nothing but a fleeting one. However, that is why we need you students who will serve as the heroes of tomorrow."
Soon the class was over after about an hour of long boring continuous introduction to war, with the lecture being over they were given a break. With him still feeling hungry, the first thing he thought about was something to fill his stomach with, with Ryan joining their group they went out to grab a quick snack and juice, it was at this moment Bernard realize something however he wasn't sure so he looked at the snack he was holding again.
[Sun penalty has been triggered]
[You are being affected]
[All stats relating to vision will start at the lowest possible points]
As soon as Bernard saw these notification messages he almost dropped his snack on the ground, it was almost as if he had suddenly gone blind.
If it wasn't for the fact he could still make little sense of his surrounding, he would have thought otherwise. He felt helpless, it was just like those days were he lost his glasses but then this was a bit better in comparison.
"Hey man, are you okay? Your eyes seemed like they are about to spew out waters." Ryan tried to tease him but stopped when no one was laughing.
"Are you okay, should we take you to the clinic?"
"Yeah, am okay just need something to clean my eyes," Bernard said trying to shrug off the question.
While Emelia and Ryan showed their concern over Bernard, Sophia instead kept her cold silence like always with an expressionless face as she watch what was happening by the side quietly.
The two of them continued to ask until Bernard eventually changed the topic to something else, among them Ryan was the most talk active at first Bernard had thought he was just like Emelia who was always shy to speak but then he realized his shyness was nothing but misleading.
From talking about things of the academy, he soon entered his experience about his life on earth, he talked about his life as a child, his family, his school life, and the flings he had with various girls, soon he was going on and on.
"Hey Bernard, I would like to thank you regarding last night." Ryan suddenly said, making the girls stare at him with curious and thoughtful expressions. As soon as Bernard heard this he dreaded where the conversation would lead.
Making him suddenly gave out a light loud cough.
"Dude, you were really cool and crazy back there," Ryan said not catching the hinting that Bernard was giving him to stop.
Ryan was about to continue his talk when he realized everyone was no longer looking at him but their front. They could see a group of moving students, walking with elegance forward their expressions were aloof and cold.
Their military uniforms had deeper colors in comparison to their own, signifying they were part of the second years' students with a grey military badge one on their arms and the other on their thighs, they had hands in their pockets however the pressure they were releasing as they walked spoke volumes.
"A rank five among the rash? Seems like Josh wwasn'tlying." One of them said, his eyes were form into slits as he stared at them with a sharp and piercing gaze.
"Since everyone are all here, how about we have a little conversation with you all? However, here might be too open for such conversation how about you guys come with us?" One of the second-year students said, he said almost as if he was polite but everyone knew it was directed at Sophia.
While his mouth was filled with polite words, his eyes said otherwise.
After they stood up, they were escorted by the second-year students after walking for a while they eventually arrived at a more obscure part of the school. With just one swift look at their surrounding, they realized even though the place was obscure it was actually closer to the second-year building.
Even though both the first and second-year buildings were built in the same place, they were still separated by the cafeteria and as such, they barely come into contact with themselves, except occasionally.
"What should we do?" Ryan whispered to Bernard's ear as he lean over so they wouldn't hear him.
"I don't know, let's wait and see. I doubt they can do anything to us at least for the fact we haven't broken any rules." Bernard said to Ryan trying as much as possible to keep his voice low. In the corners of his eyes, he could already see Emelia was panicking, though most of what he said was to ease their fears however some of it wasn't.
"Hey Ryan, am sure they only called us here to show off their authorities as second years."
