My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

Chapter 144: Chapter 144- Who Is He?!

Arthur could see the weird smiles on their faces. He wasn't a fool to really think that these three were somehow interested in him. He wasn't the tallest nor the most good-looking person in that classroom. If anything, he was a little below everyone else in those departments. Yet for some reason, these three were interested in him.

'Yeah, sure, I'm totally buying that nonsense.' He thought to himself. 'They probably got curious because I said I'm friends with Isla.'

Arthur had seen these three surround Isla with the others and so everything clicked together perfectly.

'Well, let's see what they're going to say.' He thought to himself.

"Sure, I'm Arthur. What are your names?"

"Charlotte~"

"Lucia~"

"Ethan."

They responded casually.

"I see, well nice to meet you. Anything else?" He asked as he rested his back against the glass.

"Well, we just want to be friends. We're new here and there are so many new faces. What's better than to get to know each other?" Ethan said as he tried to wrap his arms around Arthur's neck. However, for some reason, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and he stopped immediately.

'Huh?' He looked down with a dazed expression.

"Friends, you say?"

"Yes, friends. I see that you're alone."

"Wait, didn't he say that he's friends with Miss Isla?"

"Oh right! You did say that, didn't you?"

'Here we go.' Arthur struggled to hold back his laughter after seeing their horrible acting. 'They couldn't even hold the conversation for a few minutes before their true intentions surfaced. Are these really the best of the best here? Come on.'

Arthur was a little disappointed in their surprisingly dumb trick. After all, seeing how they're S-Class students, he expected far more intelligence and cunningness. But, that wasn't the case with these people.

"Yeah, I did say that," Arthur replied.

"That's really cool… How did you meet her?"

"Let's see, hmm, if I recall correctly, I almost killed her friends and then I insulted her." Arthur thought for a moment before he replied. "Then we became good friends!" He exclaimed with a smile.

"... What?"

The three were completely confused beyond words. They did not understand what Arthur was saying at all.

"Don't worry about it. It's quite complicated." Arthur tapped his shoulder before he added. "In any case, it was nice meeting you the three of you. Have a nice life and also, yeah, never talk to me again or you will regret it heavily~" Arthur waved at them before he walked inside the classroom again.

The trio stood there, bewildered and speechless. "This guy…"

"Is he insane?"

The second lesson began a while later and it was also a normal subject: Physics. This was ironically one of Arthur's favorite subjects even though it was a very complicated one. He wasn't particularly good at it, but he was fascinated with the laws of the world and how they merge and mix so perfectly together to create magnificent things.

So, another two hours passed like a breeze to him. He didn't feel the time at all as he put his heart and soul into the lesson, trying to understand everything. He was successful most of the time which made the lessons fruitful to him.

Another thing Arthur noticed very clearly was that his intelligence had surprisingly increased. He had a suspicion at first when the first lesson rolled in but now he was certain of it… His brain was working considerably better.

He was able to absorb information faster and understand complex concepts with far more ease. He didn't know if that meant he was smarter, but he was certainly mentally better than before.

*RING*

With that, the students heard the sound of the bell ringing and looked up.

"That is the end of our second lesson. After the lunch break, we shall begin your very first DO lesson." Theodore said as he picked up his device and left again.

When that happened, Arthur finally exhaled and looked at the surprising amount of notes he had taken throughout the lesson.

'Damn, I really outdone myself today. I can understand almost everything written here.' He thought to himself as he closed the holographic image and picked up his device.

As he was about to stand up, he heard gasps of surprise coming from the students around him. Arthur was confused for a second before he realized that someone was standing right in front of his table.

"Let's go," Isla said coldly as she stared at him.

"... I'm after you," Arthur replied and stood up and left the classroom with Isla, under the weird gazes of the students.

"Those two…"

"Yeah, she seems to really see him as a friend…"

"To think she had found another person to add to her group!"

"I wish I was in his place! Goddamit!"

"What does he even have that she is willing to befriend him?"

"I don't know what that guy is. I need to ask around."

Their curiosity about Arthur's identity started eating away at their minds and they couldn't get rid of the idea at all. The lack of information they had about him made them almost frustrated, especially knowing he captured the attention of someone of Isla's caliber.

Something about him must've been truly special and they had to discover that sooner or later.

Unbeknownst to them, there was simply no way for them to find anything about Arthur because he was simply another average person just a few weeks ago.

"Isla! Arthur!"

As the two walked through the hall, they found Emmy and Danny waiting. They had also just finished their morning lessons and were heading to the cafeteria.

"How were your lessons, guys?" Arthur asked.

"Not bad. Our teacher is actually one of those administration members."

"Ours is the same. It's Theodore actually." Isla replied.

"Wait, really?! Oh my, that is really weird. I wonder if all the S-Classes are the same case." Emmy rubbed her chin thoughtfully.

"Most likely the case. Those administration members are no normal people. No wonder they were tasked with teaching us. They are almost robotic with how precise they are." Danny commented casually.

'Robots huh… He isn't wrong. That Theodore was moving as if he didn't want to waste a single ounce of energy in anything useless. His words were also precise and flawless.' Arthur squinted his eyes. 'He actually made no mistake this entire morning.'

Arthur didn't know if that was pure coincidence or if there was something behind it, but it emphasized his curiosity about these mysterious people. They had the same veil that shrouded them just like The Founder. The only difference was The Founder sounded like a real human which in a sense was way more eerie.

"Where is Herculia?" Isla asked while looking around her.

"He said he had to check some stuff in his device and told us to go ahead first," Emmy said. "We should go. Haven't eaten anything since earlier this morning. I'm starving."

With that, the group left the highest floor and headed to a completely uncharted section of the institution… The cafeteria.
