Classroom

Another day!

My mind still feels heavy.

I think I'll need to ask Fily a lot of things while she's asleep so she can answer me properly.

But first,

[Stat-hut activated! Enjoy master!]

"Yeah! Status!"

It was important to note that I didn't really need to shout or talk when I want to open it. When I woke up, I immediately saw a floating message where it says 'Open Stat-hut?' and when I looked at it, it moved like it was being selected.

I almost tried touching it with my fingertip but I remembered Fily and Venedette not touching anything in the air with their fingers so I just thought of clicking it in my mind.

I did prepare myself for this but when it actually happened, I was still left in shock!

[Welcome to Stat-hut!]

Letters in color white started appearing one by one from the left and forming words on a slightly tinted page that appeared in front of me.

I have yet to eat my breakfast but it was so fun to customize the stat-hut that I didn't bother getting out of my bed even if the maids were already calling for me!

I was able to choose the colors that the background and letters would appear according to my taste! There were also fonts and other settings that I skipped because doing everything immediately is going to be too much for me.

This is amazing!!

It kind of reminds me of the first guy I encountered here in Clandamascarene, his eyes were moving while looking at nothing which made him so distracted that he didn't even notice I got away!

So this was the reason after all! I thought he was lost in his thoughts or something...

Now let's look at my status,

[Name: Gemma [Title: None

[Race: Superhuman [Blood: Unknown

[Class: Student [Rank: None

[Party: None

[Role: None

[Sense: 15/30 [Hearing: 7 [Vision: 5 [Smell: 3

[None]

Ahh! There was a lot of 'None'!!!

I closed my eyes upon seeing that eyesore. On second thought, maybe I should eat first.

When I reached Fily's door, I thought of waking her up... but she already had her breakfast since the time was now 11:00 a.m.

I got so carried away from that customization journey.

I did not see Von nor Lei in the Dining area either. Not that I want to see them, it's actually the opposite. I'm glad I did not see them anywhere this morning.

But the afternoon was different.

A strict-looking lady holding a stick approached me as I was eating lunch alone at that huge table.

She was wearing a dashing dress that was colored black at most, her hair tied upwards in a manner that made it look like elegant waves of black hair, and lastly, her left eye had a monocular with a gold chain that was hanging from it to her left ear.

"Miss Venedette had instructed me to escort you personally into our classroom." Her wrinkled but still well-cared face raised her chin at me, looking at me like I was someone not worthy of her attention.

I cleared my throat as I put the glass of water back to the table, intimidated by her words.

She has this tone of authority that I did not even question. It fits her image entirely.

I finished the food quickly, afraid that she might scold me if I were to eat slowly.

She followed me to the comfort room where I brushed my teeth and I followed her to where this 'classroom' might be.

A classroom huh? I will be going to a classroom that I was just spying on before.

I used to have classes in the orphanage but they did not teach us anything of importance, except for how to communicate and the basic terms we should be aware of in this world. Like genetically evolved monsters that were abundant in that place.

I managed to escape the orphanage at the age of 6. The ice wolves attacked our village but in fact, they just want to communicate with us superhumans.

It's funny how they teach us to communicate in that orphanage but when others try to communicate with them, they shut them down.

I always have more questions that the orphanage could not answer for me. But the ice wolves answered some of my questions. The people were afraid of them but I became one of them.

Until they left me in Wayeland.

"YOU!?" Von greeted me with the warmest welcome ever as I entered the classroom where the two of them were seated already.

I just shook my head as a response for him and sat at the farthest chair from him, which was the closest chair to the teacher, apparently.

The old teacher looked very intimidating in front of the black screen, but when she looked at us, her warm smile changed my impression of her.

Her deep voice was the only thing that was scary of her, but she's actually really caring and sweet when she started the lesson.

"I was told that you went on sleepless nights just to finish the books that Venedette gave you? That's very admirable for an 11-year-old."

My cheeks felt hot when I heard her compliment me.

I also saw her look meaningfully at Von and Lei who just ignored her.

"I think you can surpass these young masters here if you continue to feed your brain little missy." She patted my head which made me smile even more.

"But prevent from disregarding your sleep as it may cause you health problems in the future."

I looked at her and wondered what she was saying.

"There are instant recovery potions that we can buy in the market. I don't see health as a problem more than wanting to learn ma'am." Over the time that I was watching countless lessons and interviews in the glass tablet that Venedette gave me, I had also learned how to speak formally and its difference from informal speech.

Although I am still far from perfect. I just really hate knowing nothing and being ignorant more than anything else.

If I can improve on something, I would gladly do so than fighting for my wrongness.

"I see you have really studied hard. But health potions can only give you an incomplete fix to your body, unlike sleep which is the natural repair for our body. There is a difference and that is what you must learn, natural is still and will always be better than quick fixes like these health potions that you are talking about." The teacher named Melody gave me a faint smile and went back to her position in front of the black screen board.

The lesson we were discussing was potions and I was very intrigued as this was an entirely new subject for me.

The only potion that I have encountered was the Health potion and I was surprised to find out that there were even more potions with different uses in this world!

I even found out that apparently, superhumans have become superhumans because of a potion that I remember the young teacher near the border was talking about. It was a 'Scientist' that discovered the formula that let the weak humans evolved into superhumans!

But unfortunately, because of the number of people that they needed to distribute the formula to, the quality was greatly reduced, and thus, only a small amount of people was able to undergo a complete evolution. These were mostly the billionaires and the most influential people at that time.

And the rest? They were only given enough properties of the potion that was vital to fight the virus.

The formula was not disclosed to the public so I was not surprised when teacher Melody could not answer my question about the ingredients of it.

But Fily knew the ingredients. As expected from a genius.

Now I'm starting to believe that her Level 10 Knowledge stats was true.

Infinite Knowledge? How can she store that amount of information in her brain?

This thought led me back to my questions yesterday of how was the spider-thief able to steal those gemstones as if they vanished in thin air. It was like she had this infinite storage with her that only she could access.

Ah, I could be wrong...

But the possibilities are endless especially with this unexplained thing in my neck.
