Chapter 87 [Entrance Ceremony] Headmaster

Chapter 87 [Entrance Ceremony] Headmaster

"Go inside!"

The female teacher's voice showed no emotion as she gestured for me to move into the headmaster's office.

"Come on, big sis Sophia, don't act like you don't know me." Frustration was evident in my voice, having had enough of her demeanor.

"It's Teacher Sophia for you, and don't act like you know me," she coldly replied, as if she didn't care about me.

"Hah!"

I sighed, shifting my focus towards the office in front of me. UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

Her behavior is understandable. I, or, to be more precise, Eden, before I arrived in his body, had royally fucked up every friendship and relationship he had, and she was one of the few people who was really close to me in my childhood, one of the few who tried to help me when I became a drug addict.

*Knock, knock.*

"Come in."

I firmly knocked on the door, and a voice granted permission to enter, which I promptly did.

I immediately squinted as I adjusted my eyes to the bright room.

The entire space was adorned with white marble, reflecting the light within the room.

In the center stood a large desk on which different documents were placed, with a spherical orb placed on the right end of the desk with a bell, and behind it sat the headmaster of the academy 'Alexander Ervan'.

"Eden Morton, please have a seat," he said, his piercing obsidian eyes locked with mine as he gestured for me to sit.

"Why not?" I replied with a nod, taking the seat opposite his.

"So, Mr. Morton," he began before pausing, a frown forming on his wrinkled face. "Is Morton still your surname?"

"I was disowned," I replied, showing no sign of being bothered by his taunt. "They didn't strip my family name, so yes, it is still my surname."

"So, Mr. Morton, why are you here?" He asked curiously, his gaze lingering on me.

"Why else would someone come to an academy?" I countered with a question instead of giving a direct answer.

"Well, in the past, some nobles did come here just to harass commoner girls, so—" I interrupted before he could finish his words.

"I am here to study," I lied with a straight face.

"You do know you are famous for something else," he said, tapping his fingers on the desk.

"Yeah, I know, for attempting to rape the princess," I replied with a nod. "But they are just rumors."

"There isn't smoke without a fire, Eden," he replied, smiling a little. What the fuck is he finding funny here?

"They are just baseless rumors," I replied, keeping my cool.

"But there is also a slight chance that it's true," he replied, leaning back in his chair. "And I don't want anyone like you here who will harass my students."

"Listen here, old man," I replied, leaning forward. "Look at my face. Do you think I need to harass anyone?"

Closing the door behind me, I started to move outside the central building.

The reason that I showed him a glimpse of my talent without any thoughts was because I knew he wouldn't tell anyone about it, even if his reputation took damage because he was allowing me to study here.

And even if he tells anyone, I can handle the consequences because I know what can happen if my physique goes public.

Plus Later this week, the hero will also reveal that he possesses the perfect body, drawing all attention to him.

"Wait a damn minute."

As I was happily moving towards the first-year building, something clicked within me. That bastard said that I was in Sophia's class.

"Fuck!!"

That's the same class where the princess is studying.

"Fuck! Fuck!"

I cursed as I moved forward. In the game, I was in a different class than Angelina, and in every period interval, I would go to her class, and that was the reason for the conflict between me and the hero.

That fucker acted like a knight in shining armor, blocking me in every attempt to get close to her.

What's worse is that Angelina is the head of the class, making everyone in the class follow her lead in every academic event.

"Fuck that old geezer!" I am pretty sure he did this on purpose. Most probably, he wanted to see how she would react to all this.

"Hey, man!" Just as I was cursing the old man's ancestors, a loud voice brought me back to reality.

I looked back, only to find five people coming my way.

I recognized three of them immediately as I saw them in the morning: Emily, Aron, and Cassia, with two more students with them.

Aron's blazer was totally damaged as he placed it on his hands while Cassia was helping him not stumble down, and Emily was just behind them as she looked at Aron with..... disgust?

'The fuck happened after I was gone?', I thought before shifting my focus towards the boy in front.

"Thank God we found someone," the black-haired boy said as he arrived in front of me. "Can you please tell us where the class for the first-year students is?"

"Sure, follow me," I replied as I started to move forward, and they followed me.

I looked back curiously towards them—three girls and two boys.

One boy was energetic, while the other was shivering.

"What's up with him?" I asked, concerned, looking at Aron, the hero of the first game, as if I wasn't the reason for his condition.

"He isn't feeling good," the black-haired boy replied. "By the way, my name's Berg."

'Berg?' As soon as I heard his name, I remembered who he was.

Curiously, I looked towards the brunette-haired girl who had her hair tied in a high ponytail beside him, who was holding his hand.

If my guess is correct, she should be the sub-heroine.

"That's a nice name," I replied with a slight smile.

This dude is the hero's best friend and the person that the hero NTR'ed.
