Chapter 32: Group (1/2)
The next day, Theo went to school.
It was Saturday and students normally didn't go to school. He, however, could only see people after people coming into the school, showing the students' enthusiasm for the Grand Gaia Competition.
When he was about to enter the school, a crowd of people took his attention. They all faced the same direction, which turned out to be a billboard. On that wooden board, several name lists were pinned.
Each paper contained five hundred people with ”A”, ”B”, ”C”, ”D”, and so on below the lists.
Making his way through them, Theo gradually reached the very front, where he began to search for his School ID to see his group.
Surprisingly, he noticed many unusual numbers that a first year student wouldn't have.
'Seniors from second and third grades?' Theo asked inwardly before frowning. He took a glance over his number and group. 'I am in Group D. I hope I don't need to meet Laust or anyone I know…'
Suddenly, a series of love-struck shouts pierced everyone's ears as they turned around.
”Kya! It's the Wolf Prince.”
”My Prince!”
The girls began to scream as if their idol arrived at the school.
Theo also became curious and turned around as he didn't know about this title thing, only to find himself regretting it in that instant.
The Wolf Prince in their mouth was someone he knew. This man had a petite figure and acted cute like a woman. Yes, he was none other than Phyrill Hilbert.
He had put him in his ”Not to talk” list to avoid getting dragged into the spotlight, albeit he seemed to have accepted and relied on something he shouldn't have.
'What should I do? I have been getting used to the Magic Bullet recently. Although I have no plan in revealing it, he might know it in one way or another.' Theo's heart skipped a beat. 'I thought he was just a middle-schooler, but it seemed you couldn't judge the book by its cover.'
Only one hope remained in Theo's head.
'Please. Don't make him in my group. I want to stay away from him. God, Please. Don't let any of these guys be a part of my group.' Theo prayed to God while thinking about four people: Alea Eilric, Laust Lange, Sihan Raskaka, and Phyrill Hilbert.
'I mean, I don't mind being a part of their group, but it's only after the training is over.'
Phyrill waved his hand to the crowd while slowly making his way toward the billboard.
The normal students didn't dare to stand in his way and quickly went to the side, allowing him to check his group.
Theo also followed what the others did so as to avoid his radar while thinking, 'Still, I can't understand why I don't know a famous person like him. Has he ever gone to school?'
As Theo thought about it, he heard a few people talking.
