Everyone Else Has a System

Chapter 200 Getting Along With Classmates

After another half an hour or so, the others came back too. The highest floor they made up to was the 5th floor with the average people reaching the 3rd floor, my class 1E, I mean.

I nodded at it, as I expected it this much.

I noticed that there were 2 people who reached the top. One was Gloria, the purple-haired girl who was sitting in front of me before. While the other one was a black-haired guy named Razor Adam. I observed these two and nodded in my head to do a background check on them as well.

'Let's see if I can use you or not,' I thought before all of us began sitting in the metro, moving back one step at a time.

"Aidan!!!" I heard someone calling me from behind and I turned around to see Dalton was running as fast as he could before he reached me. Professor Hoffman and the others also looked at Dalton before looking at me with slight curiosity in their eyes.

"Did you meet Professor Lynn?" he asked in a slightly hushed voice and observing him catching his breath, I replied,"no. Stuff happened… well, I guess. I will be meeting her soon, so it's not that much of a problem. For now, I need to go take my test." From there I just moved towards the Metro, under the tired but fixed gaze of Dalton. Watching me walking away, the rest of the people also began moving with a few of my classmates peeking at Dalton every once in a while.

We entered the station, then the metro, and I chose a random seat near the window. Luckily, no one sat with me or disturbed me. They just kept being busy with their own life, with a couple of girls trying to talk to Razor, the guy who reached the highest in our class, along with Gloria.

It was the same for Gloria as well, as most girls were trying to befriend her and a couple of boys were thinking about whether they should make a move or not. As for the red-haired guy who sat on my right in the class, he was sitting there beside a thin boy who was continuously talking with him. However, the red-haired guy didn't reply even once and just kept quiet.

Professor Hoffman had already marked people he would be focusing on helping to reach the next height. As for me, I thought about doing a background check to make sure I am not missing any potential candidate that I might have missed.

About 130 people and 30 days… It is a bit hard but not impossible to get in touch with everyone and see how I could use them… after that I would be moving towards my seniors and soon the entire Academy.

I kept pondering a little as I observed the whole class before the metro stopped at our station. We moved out of the metro, reached the class and sat in our respective seats. The class was still gossiping continuously, without stopping.

"I see that you guys have enjoyed your journey today. I am really glad to see that all of you are enthusiastic as much and hence I will be sharing another piece of good news. After the tests are over today, we would be providing all of you a set of skills that will be based upon what kind of magic you use and what system you have. So be sure to stay here for the time being, okay?" spoke Professor Hoffman as he kept his glance shifting between Razor, Gloria and a couple of other students.

My eyes then turned to the other people here as I just sat there doing nothing. I doubted anyone would be talking with me but,

"What floor did you reach?"

Asked the guy on my right, the red-haired muscular guy as he looked at me. All this time, this was the first time I heard him speak, and I looked in his eyes… he was using minor charm magic.

'What kind of magic is he using… hmmm… something that compresses one to tell the truth, huh? That's something,' I thought as I smiled at him before muttering,"be more honest and I will tell you."

At my words, Gloria, who was sitting right in front of me, turned around a bit confused as he looked at me and then at that red-haired guy. Her eyes, which were confused before, narrowed at the red-haired guy and said,"You are Luverial Artemis, right? From the Artemis Family…?"

"You can call me Verial, miss Gloria Treveri. The direct heir of the Treveri Family… it's an honour to meet you," Verial spoke as he looked at her and I could see some sparks in between. Though it did not matter much to me what relations they have or not.

"You still haven't answered Aidan Williamson. What floor did you reach?" he asked as he looked at me and I smiled at him before speaking,"I was thinking of going to the 10th floor but I stopped at 9th. Does that satisfy your curiosity?"

Hearing my response, he glared at me, and I saw Gloria chuckling at my answer. Razor was observing from a distance while the rest of the class was cursing me behind my back as to why I was so 'Lucky' to sit behind Gloria and why was it not them?

"Miss Gloria, what are you going to do tonight-" the blonde girl sitting beside Gloria tried asking her but Gloria ignored her as she spoke to me,

"So, what are you going to do tonight?"

I saw that her interest was piqued in me and now she wanted to know more about me… which wasn't really bad for many reasons…

"I am going to meet a few friends after the test. As for the night, I am going to do a bit of research work. Why do you ask?" I asked and she pondered a little before speaking in confusion,

"Isn't there going to be skill distribution after the test? Are you not going to take a skill of your own?"
