Leo calmly moved towards the seat at the back but for some reason, people in the classroom gasped and a few immediately send threatening gazes towards him.

[A few hostile gazes had been detected. Scanning for their locations…] Arthur’s voice sounded in his mind and then it roughly gave him the directions where this hostile gazes were coming from.

When Leo turned his head to look towards the one of these people, he found him to be another Glorian and he look extremely displeased with Leo for some reason. And when he took a look at another guy, he found him to be a Glorian as well.

‘What the hell? Did I offended them somehow?’ He didn’t know what he had done. In the end, he just ignored them and went towards the back to take a seat.

But a person who was a fellow Glorian suddenly stood up and came out of his seat to block Leo’s path, “Don’t you think you forgot something Aiden?”

Leo looked at the guy who about the same height as him but a little buffed up, ‘He doesn’t seem like a friend.’

That was very obvious from his expression.

“Did I forget something?” Leo asked with a forced smile on his face. This was his first day, so he had no idea what this guy was talking about.

The person’s expression changed and the frown on his face deepened a bit, “I am not in the mood of joke.”

‘Bro! I am not joking!’ Leo really wanted to tell him that.

“Even if the Academy asks us to treat each others as equal, don’t you feel ashamed as a part of Gloria’s Aristocratic society? If we don’t follow the rules and treat people with proper etiquette, then how will the rest of common people do?”

Leo looked at the guy not having the least idea what he was talking about. He was clearly going blank in his head.

“Its fine, why are you guys making a mess about such a small thing?” A sweet voice sounded from behind and Leo saw the beautiful girl with purple hairs standing there while looking at the guy in front of Leo with a face that said, ‘Its fine.’

“But Miss h-”

“Its fine Elvin. I am sure he had something going on his head and didn’t notice,” Becky’s words finally made the guy name Elvin to close his mouth. In the end, he just gave Leo a look before returning back to his seat.

“Umn..thank you,” Leo said to the girl, still a bit confused about the whole situation.

“Uh..yeah..” Becky looked at Leo in a daze. She clearly felt something was off about him. He seemed to be behaving as if he was not used to the environment or something.

As Leo turned around to leave, Becky unconsciously grabbed the tip of his jacket trying to stop him. She wanted to know if everything was alright with him.

But because she didn’t say it out loud, Leo had no idea about it and hence he moved ahead which led to the jacket falling off of his shoulder and the sight next shocked everyone.

Becky’s eyes widened as well when she saw that Aiden was a missing an arm. The class immediately went silent. No one dared to let a word out.

Even though most people weren’t a fan of Aiden, they had to admit that the guy really was hardworking. They couldn’t deny that after all and even respected that aspect of him.

He just had a low rank skill but didn’t give up instead picked up the path of the spear and refined his skill trying to become a Master Wielder of the weapon. But now that he had lost an arm….wouldn’t it all go to waste? Ecsb if got a proshetic arm, it couldn’t be compared to real one and he would probably severely affect his ability.

And that mean his years of hard work was gone.

Just how tragic was this guy’s life going to be?

“Umn…do you want anything from me?” Leo looked at Becky and then at his jacket which was still hanging from her hand.

“I-I…” Becky was clearly not prepared for this, she didn’t know what to say and how to react. Losing a hand was big deal for people and it could severely affect their future specially when you had plans of joining the military.

“I got into a bit of an accident,” Leo forced a smile on his face when he realized she was staring at his missing arm. He then went onto take back his jacket and then gave her a slight nod before turning around and leaving to take his seat.

Becky stood there looking at his leaving back. She wanted to console him and say something but she was never good at talking to begin with.

At this moment, a man looking in his 60s entered the classroom. He had scar down the side of his cheek and the corner of his eyes were showing his wrinkles.

He was Professor Benard Vellsing. A retired veteran who had served in Gloria’s Forces for well over 40 years before taking retirement and deciding to raise the younger generation for the Nation. He was actually kinder then the other Professors but that was only comparatively. After all, most of the teachers here were all retired military personnel and you couldn’t expect them to treat you nicely.

As the Professor entered the room, the students returned to their seats in a hurry. There were still quite a few empty seats in the classroom and Leo wondered why so many people were missing.

“Excuse me, do you know why so many people are missing?” Leo asked the sheep lady from the Minotaur race who was sitting right in front of him.

“Uh..the students who had opted for Military Experience are out on a tour right now.” The Sheep girl said a bit surprised, it seemed she hadn’t expected Leo to talk to her at all.

“Ok, thanks..” Leo nodded with a smile and it left the girl blushing. He was a handsome guy after all.

…

“I told you he is acting weird,” Becky said as she looked at Serina. The two were quietly observing Leo on the backseat interacting with the girl.

“Yeah, he seems a bit weird. He never is the one to initiate conversation and there is no way he would ever seat at the back seat.” Serina nodded in confusion as well.

“Is he really the same guy?” Zel asked as his little figure floated on the desk.

“I will know if I get a taste of him,” Serina said while licking her lips.

“You have tasted her blood?” Becky asked in surprise.

“Yeah, I think I bit him once when we were kids,” Serina replied after thinking a bit.

“Miss this is not your abode. If you have some important discussion going on, then you are more than welcome to leave the place.” The strict voice of the Professor sounded in the classroom immediately making the group go stiff.

“I won’t remind you a second time,” The Professor said before turning and switching back the projection screen and beginning to continue the lesson from where he had left it in his last class.

…

‘I don’t get a thing,’ Leo really wanted to cry. He didn’t understand what was going on in the class. Not to mention, it really sounded dangerous. Why the hell was the professor always talking about the past deaths and percentage of fatality on every other topic?

This was really scaring him now.

He sighed before looking around and started to wonder why no one had sat by his side. And he was also disappointed as he didn’t find a single human in this class for now.

Leo sighed again and really didn’t know what to do.

“Who would give the answer to the question?” The professor suddenly asked and began to look around when his eyes finally landed on Leo. “Aiden, why don’t you tell me about it?”

Leo didn’t responded. He still had problem realizing that people meant him when they called for Aiden.

“Aiden.”

“…”

The students all around turn to look at him only to see Leo with his palm on his chin as he stared at the screen on his desk.

“Aiden!”

The Professor shouted with a frown and this time it was loud enough to grab Leo’s attention and he realized that he was messing things up.

“Y-Yes!” He hurriedly got up with a nervous look on his face.

“It seems all the students have got something on their mind today. May be I should just dismiss the class for today,” The Professor said with an annoyed face. He clearly was a bit irritated

“Anyway, this was your first time so I won’t hold it.” The Professor let go of it and then pointed at the screen.

It said something about the Civil War in Bruce and depicted a situation where the captain of a squad had a tough call to made. Leo was supposed to answer how he as a Soldier of Gloria should have reacted keeping the rules in his mind.

How was he suppose to remember the rules of Gloria Military when he had been around for just fricking seven days on the planet?!

“…”

The student’s expression started to change when Leo failed to answer it. This really shocked everyone, even the professor. It was true that Aiden had a low ranked skill and because of it he ranked at the bottom of the class mostly but when it came to theory papers, he was ranked in the top 3.

As for the question in front, it wasn’t that tough and more than half of the students could answer it easily. But Leo wasn’t one of them.

“Umn…I don’t know..” Leo replied as he forced a smile on his face while crying inwardly. He really was going to be in trouble on the first day!

“Out of the Class, now!”
