After two days of training, Charles finally allowed me to attend class. He also told me to bring Rose as my aide. I didn't know that these were things you needed to go to school, but with Rose's assistance, I'm sure nothing could go wrong.

"Reina, Rose, Montgomery. What do I do?"

I can't believe it. I was having a nervous breakdown attending my first class. The four of us would be coming to class together, I was saddened that Charles wouldn't come, but he said he had a business to attend to.

"There is no need to be nervous. Everyone may be competitive, but no one here is going to go too far with me with you."

Having Reina sure gave some reassurance. Walking to class together, a few glances were on our way. I could feel it. They were gossiping about us.

"Don't let them bother you."

Feeling my discomfort, Reina tried to calm me down. Even if she did, I don't feel calm. Stress was getting to me, and I quietly walked around the school campus with my friends.

Entering the class, two of the students partially stood out to me. It wasn't because of their look or anything, but this irritating aura around them. Being near them made my skin crawl, and I could feel that they felt the same.

Rose, Reina, and I had the same feeling. This feeling of looking at them made me forget the feeling of being scared. I followed Reina to her seat and sat beside her.

"Do you guys feel that?"

I wasn't confident that it was just me that had those feelings. I only saw that the two of them frowned upon entering the room.

"This is why I don't want to enter..."

Reina muttered in annoyance. I felt terrible that I dragged her to class. Their aura was hard to ignore, especially if they were behind us.

With more students coming in, I could see people staring at me. I know I was a new student, but I heard that new students weren't rare in class.

"You're sitting on Charles' seat. Other than you, no one has sat here ever since he arrived."

Ah... If anyone other than Reina and I were sitting on this seat, you wouldn't know how Charles would react. It's not to get close to him and get on his bad side.

Talking to the three of them, I saw the teacher come in. Before I was admitted here, Charles talked with him.

I didn't want a grand entrance. All I want is a standard introduction. The teacher went to his desk and called me out.

"We have a new student again. Courtney introduce yourself."

Walking up to the small podium, I stood where everyone watched. The nerves I had disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Courtney. Glad to meet you all."

What I gave was a short introduction. Everyone in the room clapped, which made me feel welcomed. Going back to my seat, the teacher began to talk.

"Today's lesson, we will be talking about..."

Listening to the teacher's words, I zoned out, and the class was over. What happened? Everyone is leaving the room. Did the class finish?

"Courtney, class is over."

Rose and Reina told me when everyone left.

"Class is over?"

"Yes. Even though you look focused, you zoned out for the whole class."

"..."

"So, what do we do next?"

I thought school was supposed to be more fun... But listening to the class was more tedious than I thought.

"We either go home or attend the next class."

"Isn't there any class where we meet people and talk?"

"Unless you fight someone or work in a group project, I don't think there is."

The school experience that I wanted was ruined. Maybe it was too ambitious of me to join a school like this.

"Why don't we try another class? Maybe the home room wasn't something meant for me."

I couldn't let my mood dampen because of one class. There could be classes that would help me make friends. Or even clubs

"Reina, is there like a cooking or musical club?"

"There should be, but I doubt that anyone would be passionate about those clubs."

"It doesn't matter. We have to try."

Not letting everything go for the worse, we tried to see if any clubs were open. Running all over the place, all the doors to each club were closed. And for those that were open, it was the activities I wasn't interested in.

I couldn't help but sigh in defeat. My thoughts of the school had shattered in a blink of an eye, and if I drop out now, I will feel bad for everyone that had done the process of letting me in.

"If you want. Why don't we go to a dessert shop?"

Reina sensed my disappointment and tried to comfort me. Maybe it wasn't too bad when I had Reina and Rose with me.

"Sorry for forcing you to come with me."

"Its part of my job, don't mention it."

"I have nothing else to do, and it doesn't hurt to explore the place."

My heart was supposed to be touched because they weren't bothered by my request. But hearing their explanation, the grateful feeling had disappeared.

"Then let's get dessert."

While school was a disappointment, at least I had people like them to be with me.

[Third Person POV]

Meanwhile, Charles was in the hub screaming at his men.

"Grunt number one! Beat that man up and I will reward you!"

"Grunt number two! That woman is giving me a shady look! Beat that bitch and I will reward you!"

"Grunt number three! That shop owner is selling at his items at overprice! Smash his shop and I will reward you!"

You can tell that Charles was having a heyday commanding these grunts to do whatever he wanted. With him being the boss, these grunts have no choice but to agree. It was a usual day for Charles.
