At the Dean's request, Zereth went to the healing class. As he entered the classroom, all the students focused their attention on him.
His appearance may not rival Imanuel's in terms of striking beauty, yet he certainly stands out in a sea of lovely omegas.
With his elven heritage, he showcases the signature pointed ears and light green hair reminiscent of fresh foliage. His hazel eyes shine even brighter against his fair, delicate complexion, making him a memorable presence.
Zereth looked around the class, which was filled with different kinds of beauties. The number of students in the healing class is significantly lower than in other classes, as it is exclusively filled with elves and angels.
This is especially evident in the S level class, which has just over a hundred students, with angels making up less than 30 of that total, emphasizing their unique and rare status.
Zereth greeted the students with a smile, "Good morning, everyone! My name is Zereth. I will replace Professor Ray temporarily and teach you some basic concepts of mental disorder counseling."
As he flashed a smile, the delicate dimples on his cheek seemed to come alive, causing a few alphas at the back of the classroom to feel a rush of warmth to their cheeks. The other students were also affected by his smile and greeted him cheerfully.
"Alright, then first let's sta- -"
"Mr. Zereth!"
Zereth frowned at the interruption, but he quickly restrained his expression and looked towards the source of voice. The person who interrupted him was an omega, with delicate facial features and a pair of round eyes, he looked particularly innocent.
Zereth was slightly surprised when he saw who it was, "Student Edan, What happened?"
Edan smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry for the interruption, Mr. Zereth. But, can I ask why Professor Ray is not here today!?"
Zereth thought that the students might not be informed about today's arrangements, "Well, Professor Ray had some emergency related to work, so he had to take a leave."
"oh.. I have heard that to teach S-level class with angels, the criteria for a professor is an experienced angel of at least 300 years old….Um…Mr. Zereth is an elf and looks really young..."
"So, I wonder how amazing Mr. Zereth's mental counseling is… after all, the dean directly found you to replace Professor Ray…"
Zereth's face turned gloomy for a moment, he looked at Edan, who was questioning him with an innocent expression.
The smallness of Edan's face enhances his cuteness, and whenever makes such an expression, he looks so well-behaved that it naturally inspires a protective instinct in those who see him.
He could already feel the doubtful gazes of students. After all, many of them sitting in the classroom are around his age. In a sense, Edan was not only questioning his qualifications as a professor but also looking down on his identity as an elf.
There is no doubt that angels are the noblest ceeatures in the cosmos. Even if an Elf has the same level of mental power as an angel, he will still be far more inferior than an angel in terms of strength.
However, Zereth is not a weak minded person who can be pressurized with a few words, "Then I might have to disappoint Student Edan, because my skills are definitely not comparable to my seniors, but I think my 20 years of experience as a Healer is more than enough to teach some basic things."
"But you don't have to worry, I am just a temporary trainer. Your professor will be back by tomorrow." Zereth said with a serious expression.
Hearing this, Edan's face becomes a little aggrieved, "Uh, I hope I didn't offend Mr. Zereth…I really didn't mean anything else…"
It has to be said that Edan's face is really suitable for an innocent persona, it really makes people feel pity for him. It was evident from the reaction of the students who felt distressed after seeing his pitiful expression.
"Edan, you don't have to feel sad…"
"Yes, we all know that you were just sincerely praising Mr. Zereth…it is just that Mr. Zereth is just taking it too personal. "
Zereth was speechless after hearing their coaxing words. He couldn't help but doubt, "Are these kids just stupid or mentally retarded!?"
Zereth could hardly believe his ears when a student passionately spoke out for Edan.
"Mr. Zereth! Edan just asked you out of curiosity, as a teacher, don't you think you should control your temper!?"
"Mr. Zereth, as an elf you might not understand the significance of a four winged angel, even Professor Ray has never said a harsh word to Edan!"
Zereth looked around in the class, most of the students who spoke up for Edan were alphas. While others were either a little distressed for Edan or planned to stay out of this situation.
"Please don't fight! I am just a normal person like everyone else…there is no need to treat me in a special manner…"Saying this, Edan looked towards Zereth.
"Mr. Zereth, I'm really sorry…. I didn't mean it…Please forgive me… If you want to punish anyone, please punish me, I was the one who didn't think before talking… I hope Mr. Zereth can forgive my friends…"
When the students sitting around Edan heard this, they were obviously very moved.
"Silly! You don't have to ask for forgiveness, you didn't do anything wrong!!"
"Yeah! It is just that Mr. Zereth is unkind…"
Listening to the non-stop accusations, Zereth fell into self doubt," When did I say I will punish anyone!? I didn't even ask you for an apology from the beginning to end."
…
"Fuck!! I have never met such a group of brainless people!" Zereth couldn't suppress his anger when he thought about what happened in the class during the day.
Imanuel was also a little surprised after knowing the whole story. He did knew that Edan was just putting on a mask of innocence, but he always thought that his tricks only worked because he was younger, while Imanuel was an outsider at their house. It is obvious who the Anderson couple will support.
Unexpectedly, even the situation out of the Anderson Manor seemed to be somewhat similar. He had been oblivious to this before, as his interactions with Edan had been confined to their home. With a four-year age gap and different career paths, their social lives had never intersected.
"Don't worry, you can take revenge next time when you meet him." Imanuel tried to comfort Zereth.
Zereth wanted to say something else, but when he saw Imanuel, suddenly the corners of his mouth went up, "Yes, you are right! I will definitely get my revenge! So, as my best friend, you will help me right…"
Looking at the expectant expression on his face, Imanuel could already guess that there was nothing good going on in his brain, "Don't even think about it, I already have a lot of things to do…I don't have time to participate in some childish confrontation."
"And who knows if those students are Edan's die hard fans, even if I say something, they might try their best to protect their Idol at all cost." Imanuel was not afraid of a conflict, but he really didn't want to get involved in these troublesome things.
Zereth also knew that Imanuel hated trouble, "Hey, you don't have to do anything… just your face is enough to show him his place… after all what he has gained after nearly ten years as a child actor, you have gained that much more with just an accidental snap."
