U-Um You Can't Leave with Those.

"When activating a G-Gu you need to give it pri-primeval essence" ~ The current teacher is very uncomfortable, one of his 'students' is a full-grown adult. And to make matters worse, it doesn't feel like he is a teacher teaching a class of students. Instead, it feels like he is a delicious feast, getting consumed piece by piece.

[It's only been 3 days, and I'm already feeling hungry, it's like a tiny village of 30 people meant nothing! I'll have to get permission to hunt, or become a butcher and drain the blood myself]

001 abruptly stands up, causing the teacher to jump ~ "U-um is there a problem with the lecture?"

"It was perfect Mister T, but I do apologize, as I have other matters to attend to."

The teacher lets out a sigh of relief. ~ "You don't need my permission to leave, enjoy yourself!"

001 leaves the building and plans to go to the nearest butcher, however, he feels eyes on his back, "tch" ~ [No privacy even in this world] ~ He turns a corner and starts sprinting at half speed, he has to play the part of a genius, not a freak of nature.

And just like he expects the feeling of being watched goes away, but only for a brief moment, like finding out that the spider you sprayed with a can of bug spray isn't dead.

He frowns and changes plans, going to the village mission center.

Xiong Mi Che is doing makeup because she wants to look good, for when her boyfriend comes back from his mission.

While doing it, she feels a shadow loom over her, and makes a standard comment ~ "On break! Wait 5 minutes!" ~ Pointing with her offhand at the sign on her desk.

Suddenly she feels her throat dry up, and her hands shake. She quickly stops doing her makeup and bows to the person in front of the desk ~ "I'm deeply sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused, I'm ready to help now!"

"I'll be taking a mission, preferably one that has to do with hunting something big."

When she hears his voice, it sounds deep and strong, but not like an elder's. When she looks up, she sees a belt with one line, [Was I mistaken? I clearly felt the presence that only a rank-3 Gu master could exude] ~ She looks left, then right, and then tries to look behind him.

"Ahem!"

She corrects her posture. ~ "Right, right, sorry! Um, where's the rest of your team?"

"I wasn't told that I needed one."

"You weren't told?" ~ She was about to shout at him for wasting her time when she feels an even stronger presence this time.

She quickly looks everywhere, but when she sees nothing, her eyes land back on him, and she freezes.

"I want a list of all rank-2 and rank-3 missions available."

Xiong Mi Che nods, picks up two Gu, a red one and a silver one, and then hands them over, unable to break eye contact.

001 then closes his eyes and smiles, "Thank you. Keep up the hard work." ~ He then walks out.

She wants to say 'you can't leave with those 2 Gu' but doesn't have the courage to stop him.
