God's Slave: Reincarnated Into an Academy of Heavenly Descendants

Chapter 21: Good Class Session

"Hahaha..." Some students could no longer keep it in and laughed out loud.

But in the next instant, a resplendent golden light flashed through the entire classroom, and immediately all the laughter ceased.

Looking around, Nolan noticed the horror and fear flashing in the eyes of the Celestial Heirs, who were all looking at the class teacher with respect.

'What did she do?' he couldn't help but ask the system, confused by the strange change.

[She pressured them with her higher life rating. She didn't do it to you because you're the one being mocked...]

It said to him.

Nolan nodded, even though he had no idea what a Life Rating was.

"There will be no sort of mockery in my class!" Her grave tone resonated throughout the entire classroom, almost beastly, and the students unconsciously nodded in agreement.

"Hmm-hmm. So as I was saying..." She continued, and Nolan was pleasantly surprised to find her voice returning to its normal tone.

He was starting to really like the teacher, who had intervened for him, yet he was also cautious, as he had witnessed how she had quickly switched from a lovely tone to a beastly one.

Only the devil knows what type of creature she is...

"Right now, the majority of you are Celestial Initiates and should therefore only possess a single ability from your descent, powered by your Divine Essence.

It's worth noting that some of you are a bit more exceptional that you possess two abilities instead of one, mainly because you possess two bloodlines instead of one, and therefore awaken an ability from each bloodline..." She explained as Nolan's eyes flashed.

"A Celestial Heir can possess two bloodlines!?" He asked in shock, briefly losing himself, causing his voice to be heard loudly by the class, and all silently turned their raised eyebrows at him.

They all knew that was possible ever since they possessed two teeth in their gums.

"Yes, it is possible to possess two bloodlines in a single Celestial Heir." The voice rang out from none other than Instructor Tiamat, who surprisingly answered Nolan's seemingly dumb question.

"The bloodline one possesses is mainly based on one's birth parents."

"Usually and normally, the parent with the most pure bloodline gets to pass their bloodline to their children."

"If, say, your father is a Greek Descendant and your mother is an Egyptian Descendant, then you have a probability of awakening either a Greek or Egyptian descent based on whose bloodline is purer."

"If your father's bloodline is purer than your mother's, then you awaken the Greek descent."

"But if your mother's descent is purer than your father's, then you awaken her Egyptian descent.

But there are cases where instead of the child taking one of the two descents of their parents, they take both in the same body.

Those are the exceptional ones, or as the academy likes to call them... Prodigies.

In the Celestial Initiate stage, they will possess two abilities instead of the normal person, due to their dual bloodline.

Do you understand now?" She asked Nolan, who nodded.

Truly, he had now fully understood what she meant.

"After the Celestial Initiate Stage, there is the next stage, called the Heavenly Disciple Stage."

"In this stage, which is usually achieved by the absorption and comprehension of the Divine Essence in your core until it undergoes a significant evolution, you will be able to awaken a second ability from your Divine Essence and gain a very deep understanding of both your abilities."

"In this stage, there is also a minor increase in your physical strength and mana quantity in your core, making you twice as strong as you physically were in the Celestial Initiate Stage."

"For those with dual bloodlines, they would be able to awaken a total of four abilities, making them very strong compared to the normal Celestial Heirs."

"Since this is the stage where the majority of you are trying to cross into, I will stop there and give an in-depth explanation of how you can achieve this goal..." Instructor Tiamat said.

Quickly, she dived into her explanation, arresting the attention of the majority of the class.

Since some students had already reached the stage, this created pressure on the other students to also reach it, and they all listened quietly to her explanation.

Unfortunately for Nolan, the knowledge given, though useful, was essentially useless to him.

If he dared to break through to the Heavenly Disciple Stage, he would grow stronger, but the same for his Divine Essence, and that would be used against him even more.

He couldn't afford to try her explanation at all, but he still listened to at least hear her thoughts.

The class went on for three hours straight, yet not once did Nolan feel exhausted, and thousands of questions were brimming in his mind, all of them waiting to be asked.

But he reined himself in since some of the questions were eyebrow-raising and might cause suspicion.

Three hours later, the bell rang, followed by Instructor Tiamat leaving the class after assigning them work to submit three days from now.

Nolan had no book at all, so he couldn't even write it down, but he had great intelligence and could remember the assignment.

All he had to do was visit the Academy store to get some writing and reading materials, and he would be able to complete the assignment.

Once the class was over, what followed next was break time, and some students left the class, the majority of them giving mocking glances at Nolan before leaving.

"Nolan, Nolan, Nolan, my favorite bully toy. How long has it been, really? A month, a year, or a lifetime? How I missed your screams of agony so much."

The voice rang out from behind Nolan when the class was close to empty.

Gently, Nolan could feel steps reverberating behind him and soon sensed presences surrounding his seat, before one of them walked to the side, placing his arm on his chair...
