Chapter 104: Third Year Starts
I need to find a way to distinguish myself from my Draven persona.
Seriously, after the long academic holiday, I had trouble managing both my identities which made me dizzy all the time for.
"( Damn, how should I create a difference between me and my 'Draven' persona. )" I wondered during the class.
"( Since in my 'Draven' persona, I realized that I will probably meet dad during my free Raids and I can't deny the possibility that dad will be suspicious of my real identity if I present myself in a wrong way. )"
"( Sure, me using a mask in front of him is suspicious enough, but what am I supposed to do to hide my own face? )" I said to myself, seeing my own humanoid skin.
During that time, I begin to wonder and try to remember how the hell I get human skin in the first place, oh yes, after fighting Draco Nyx Nocterra and Selena Nyx Nocterra, after I freed the Dragon, Grimdark's soul into the afterlife after conversing with him a little.*
I still remember his last words, regarding the dragons...
"( It seems some humans, needed to be stopped, huh? )" I said to myself as suddenly.
< [Vague Memory Voices] Passive Skill activated. >
" Grkk... " I tried to hold my voice as slowly as I can.
" This..., again...? " I said as the voices of whoever memory it belongs just randomly shouted in my mind, the voices of an uncertain person.
I believe in fantasy stories and novels I read on the Maginet, since the world we all live in is so 'fantastical', I believe that I may one of those 'Reincarnated characters' or whatever that had some 'past unknown and random memories' inside their head.
Just like what I experience right now.
...
< Vague Memory Voices >
"( Human are the same as the ---...!!! )"
"( Human are born with sins, just like the -- they followed!!! )"
"( All of us are technically dangerous to the world, we destroyed it...! )"
...
"( Dammit, these voices doesn't chill... )"
"( I wonder in what situation these lines happened and how the hell these memories are inside my own head. )"
"( I just remember that I was born not too long, yet I realized that the voices, feel old and it seems..., I don't know. )"
"( Just stop it, okay... )" I tried to hold myself to focus listening on to my teachers rather than hearing these random voices that always came in the most uncomfortable moment at all, like seriously.
As I felt like having a headache, I see Carlos on my left, looking at me in worry and confusion.
"( Dammit, he sees me. )" I also looked at him, fearing Carlos might have some stupid ideas, reporting me to the teacher or somewhat right after seeing this.
"( Huh..., why does he revert his eyes from me? is he in his thinking state too right now? )" I ask myself as I see Carlos was also wondering to himself at the time, I don't know what happened, but certainly I can see him having a bad holiday back then, his unhappy face says it all.
As I was wondering about it, the bell rings, ending the class and we then have some recess.
" Carlos, you're not going to the canteen? " I asked Carlos as he seems to not have the mood to speak after I looked at him for hours long.
Carlos only looked at me for a second and just leaves which made me wonder what happened to him after that holiday.
"( His parents, didn't beat him or something like that, isn't it? )"
"( Well, that's parents for you, but... )"
"( It seems dad was a little nicer... )" I think about myself regarding this, for I only think that is what happened to Carlos during his holiday, I also remembered during the Mid Semester Report, his second mother, Madam Scarlett, was so annoying at the time, so annoying that I could assume that she and her children before must've abused Carlos in his home at some way, either while his father is gone or..., I can't assume more, I've had no evidence, whatsoever.*
"( Should I reach him...? )" I said to myself as I tried to approach Carlos but Carlos somehow noticed me following him and stared at me after he turned back his head to see me. Seeing that, immediately make me stutter as if something was different in him after I didn't meet him for many weeks of holiday.
Even after he does that to me, I still try my best to move my body to reach him as he walks away, but...
" Let him have his own time, for now... " a voice says, a girl's voice talking to me from behind.
" Oh, you're... " I looked at her, the white-skinned girl with golden double ponytail hair and red ruby eyes.
" Carol...! " I call the girl's name, she's also from my class (Class 1-S).
As Carol calls me, Carlos already walked further away from us.
" Car...- "
" Don't disturb him, Donovan... "
" He's not in the very mood, right now. " Carol says to me.
" He is having much trouble in his home... "
" I can see it in his eyes. " Carol says to me.
" You know about his problems? " I immediately ask her at the moment which she only sighed and looked at me with her usual sharp eyes.
" Do you really have to ask? " Carol says as she then backs herself from me.
" Just remember, the reason he's like this is because of you," she says while leaving me.
"( Because of me...? )" I pointed at myself as I hear that from her, a confusing statement like why the hell I have to do with Carlos being moody all of the sudden.
And as I think about it, that girl, Carol immediately left me as she sees me as a waste of time, that annoying girl. I don't know why but it seems the girls in my class had that high-standard attitude, I don't know why, but it's true.
"( Is she like that because she's an S-Class student? )" I wondered to myself after Carol disappears from my very sight.
"( Dammit, it seems the girls in the S-Class, in my class, are really that annoying, aren't they!? )" I said to myself as I go to the canteen to meet Aero and the others I befriended with.
"( Guess mom was right to never be attracted to the opposite sex during the school years, it was not even worth it. )"
"(Same-sex also I guess, I will never go there. )" I said to myself for I just go to the canteen, walked towards the aisle, and suddenly bumps into someone.
" Oh sorry, I didn't mean..., oh...! "
" It's you...! " I said as I see the person I bumped into, a girl from class 1-A if I remember, a long-haired girl with large glasses and that blonde hair with some pink in the tip of her long hair.
Not a popular girl, but friendly at least, not too arrogant and prideful, making her a good girl by the standards given by my parents.
This girl is always bullied if I remember, for her big circle glasses which I also found bizarre, but as it falls, I see to see something rare from her.
" Oh, I'm sorry...! " she says to me as her glasses fall down.
"( Oh my... )"
"( Her face... )"
"( Mom, I think I have to disobey you again. )"
"( Regarding on no relationship in the academy rule. )" I said as I see her revealed face.
...
( At the same time.)
*Sneezes*
" Why I'm sneezing right now? "
" In front of Adria even...? " Irina says as she is having some time with Adria, Donovan's sister.
