Privileged Dorms

While Ian was worried about his fate, Osiris searched the desk for a moment before throwing a set of keys towards him.

"Here take this...These are keys to a room in Privileged dorms, You can stay there for now." Osiris said nonchalantly and stared at Ian waiting for his reply.

After noticing the surprise and confusion on Ian's face, Osiris sighed and called for an assistant.

"Now go with him," Osiris said, pointing at the assistant... He then continued.

"He'll show you around your dorms... And, because you have been a normal human until now, there may be many things about the central realm that you are oblivious of. So I will send you some basic knowledge books."

Ian nodded and walked behind the assistant. Even though he was perplexed about many things, there was no need to dwell on them right now. For the time being, he should go with the flow.

Osiris then remembered something and said it before Ian exited the room.

"I will handle your fees and other expenses... And I'll arrange for three sets of university uniforms and all necessary books to be sent to you so you don't have to worry about them."

Ian reverted his gaze to Osiris. He thanked him and gave a bow before walking away, but... he was suspicious in his heart.

If there is one thing Ian learned as an orphan, it should be that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world.

So Osiris must be planning something right now, but what has Ian even more perplexed is...

'Why didn't Osiris read my mind the whole time?.. because of trust?' Ian pondered for a while before rejecting this conjecture

He still remembered some basic information about Osiris. Not only is he famous for being a Mad scientist and the 'Overseer Of Humanities Safe Haven' but he was also called the 'Outcast Of The Council' by some High ranking people of the central realm.

It's because of his ideals that all humans are the same and that the knowledge of the central realm must be spread among all humans...He firmly believes that without doing this the future for humanity is bleak.

Of course, the other Council members...Who are from Secrecy Clans, a type of hidden groups that has existed since ancient times does not want Mind practitioners' special abilities to be spread among the common people.

They are firm about hierarchy and did not want commoners to stand on equal footing with them...

And because of this conflict in world views, Osiris left the council and created the 'University Of Novaetas' Which doesn't differentiate between the classes but only talent.

Dissatisfied with Osiris But powerless to do anything to him, due to his status and strength as the greatest scientist of the central realm and as one of the Top 50 of humanity in terms of strength.

They started sending spies into the university to kill all Geniuses Who might become a potential threat to their status.

After a period of conflict Between the two parties, Both Osiris and The other council members came to a conscience that the members of secrecy families can also study at this university as the privileged class and that the Gifted people who graduate from the university can be poached into their Families or Clans.

Hence there are two sectors in this university...Privileged And Gifted.

And right now Ian somehow got assigned to the Privileged sector! ...This is enough to spark suspicion in Ian's heart... Cause Osiris didn't even ask for his details!

'Osiris isn't the type to trust anyone after those incidents...' Ian was sure that Osiris won't trust him too, because even Osiris himself doesn't know the number of spies around him!

If it isn't for the techniques of Secrecy Families and Clans that can hide a portion of their memories and thoughts from Mind Reading, it would be impossible for any spy to exist here at all... considering Osiris's strength and the special power of Mind practitioners to read thoughts and memories.

So there needs to be something that Osiris was planning... to get the spies out, like using a talented person as a pawn to fish out some spies.

'Using me as a pawn?... That's Highly unlikely. ' Ian doubted that Osiris would use a suspicious person as a pawn to fish out some spies... In case he was indeed a spy from those Secrecy Clan, What if he leaked the information that Osiris was using him as a pawn? Won't that prevent him from finding the spies?

'And even my talent must be subpar...' Ian knew his limits, No matter how he thought about it he can never be compared to anyone from the Privileged sector in terms of background or talent, and in the Gifted sector ...Hah ian was sure he can't be compared to even the lousiest talent in Gifted sector.

While contemplating, He arrived before his room's door. It had the number 5303 etched on the door with a gold-colored plate...

Ian thanked the assistant arranged by Osiris before unlocking the lock on the doorknob.

The moment he set foot in the room, Ian doubted whether he was in a dorm or a 5 Star Hotel.

'This is TOO Fu*kin Grand!!' Ian almost swore out loud when he saw the room.

Not only is the room spacious and furnished with the best furniture he has ever seen in his life, but there are also various electronic appliances.

Of course, what surprised him was their quality and brand...they must be the most expensive ones on the market right now, and the bed is so big that it can fit 5 to 6 people, though it would be uncomfortable if 5 to 6 people are sleeping on it.

'ugh... am I living a beggar life until now?' Ian felt slightly unhappy when he thought of it.

Let alone the place he lived in until now...Even the house that he bought after opening a game studio in the future looked poor when compared with this room.

After a period of melancholy, he jumped on the fluffy bed and got prepared to sleep...The events that transpired after his regression put a lot of mental burden and stress on him. Even his body felt sore.

And as for any possibility of death after sleeping here...ha who is brave enough to assassinate someone in the Privileged dorms.

While organizing some basic plans for the future and worrying about his life he slept in no time.
