Chapter 5

[Congratulations you've received 0.2 Constitution points and a Scroll Quest]

Oliver who had done his Body Training got his first item reward for the first time since he began doing the daily training 2 weeks ago. The chance of it was low and he thought he could get it for the first day or 2nd, but it didn't.

His Constitution now improved from 2 to 4.8 which change his body a lot as his skin got to light a little. Even though he was almost black because his "former owner" liked to swim in the sea every morning that even if the temperature was burning he just continue thus his skin almost black. This stop after he entered high school because of the lessons and girls.

Oliver didn't mind since he didn't care but his body was back to normal and better since that depressing state. He can do things easy as his body was lighter than before. His friends also notice a change in him as they were concerned about him after what he said. Though they still had hope for him because why stay longer?

Oliver was now holding the item he got and inspecting it. He was amazed as it look old that it'll be ripped off even if it was touched a little yet now holding it, he feels something magical about it.

[Scroll Quest (Will be destroyed after 7 days):

Main Quest: Investigate what happened before the town was abandoned.

Side Quest 1: ????

2: ????

Rewards: Depends on the evaluation.

(Rip the scroll to use)]

'This one was the same as the task in the "system" though it can be continued while this isn't. There's no difficulty too, so a risk factor that I gotta take. "Before" was said on the Main Quest so there's someone behind it and the side quest can be the proof of it. I might do it when it's on weekdays, still have time to prepare.' Oliver thought as sun rays hit his face. The sun begins to rise and he began to get ready for the class since it was already 6 am.

Oliver took a bath and decided to wear the uniform and equip his rimless monocle with a thin silver chain connected to his ear. It was transparent and can be seen if you're close and focused. He wears it today so he can test the skill since he was annoyed at Kim constantly bugging him lately even though he didn't do sh*t.

Oliver passed Loben's house and noticed that he also got out that was probably waiting for him. The 2 arrived at the school and were on time for the flag ceremony. Loben notice that Oliver was taller than a pinky than him since he walled behind him. Loben also noticed how some girls glanced at Oliver but looking at his facial expression, pretty much Oliver ignored everything around him as though he was thinking something.

They entered the classroom and the duo sat at the back. Alex was missing as they didn't see him in the flag ceremony as something happened to him. Though this has another meaning to Kim as he thought that Alex might be avoiding him today and decided to not show up. Kim looked behind to see the duo and smirked at what he will do in the recess.

This didn't go unnoticed by Oliver as he sense Kim looking at him and Loben. Looking at the smirk Kim gave at them, it is pretty much known that something will happen later.

The bell rang and the class begins for two hours until it was recess. The headache every student got from the assignment given to them was also added as it was Calculus. Oliver chuckled at this as Loben was also having a hard time that he send a glare at Oliver, envious of how Oliver he answered with ease. Loben though plans to ask Oliver to tutor him.

The duo was the last to get out of the room as the heat from the sun covered them as they go to the next classroom. Oliver didn't plan to buy a snack as he didn't have a habit of it, such as Loben was looking at the students with snacks at hand.

The duo arrived early at the 3rd floor of the campus's building and sit on the stairs as the door of the classroom was locked. Minutes later Loben excused himself to go to the restroom. The tapping of shoes was heard as a group of girls climbed the stairs.

"Hi Oliver"

Oliver who had his head rest on the side wall as his eyes closed looked at the one that greeted him. He didn't remember this girl as he had to admit a young girl like her with a couple of TikTok on his past life, no doubt she'll be popular in no time. He was embarrassed for not knowing her name and it might offend her.

"Hello, sorry I didn't know your name..."

"My name's Reina"

"Nice to meet you, Reina, is something wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just curious why you always didn't eat a snack? Anyway, can we sit here?" Reina asked as she looked into his eyes and avoided them quickly when they met hers.

"Let's go beside the door there are plenty of chairs there as we wait for the teacher to arrive and unlocked the room" Oliver said as Reina nodded at went to the chairs with her group and Oliver.

"I'm confused by your question earlier, is it bad not eating a snack? I just don't feel like it." Oliver said while he sits opposite them.

'What a stupid question, why am I striking up a conversation with him? Is he annoyed?' Reina thought as she looked at Oliver's face and noticed a Lens on his left eye that piqued her interest.

"What's that on your left eye?" Reina said as her group focused on Oliver's left eye and noticed a lens that dumbfounded them as to why they didn't notice it.

"This is a monocle, it helps me from getting the answer correctly... just kidding." Oliver said as he joked about it which gives Reina and the group a laugh.

"You're funny" Reina said as she thought Oliver's impression was good.

This didn't last as Oliver adjusted his monocle and got up from the seat and looked at a senior student opening the door and begins to walk to the door. Oliver ended the conversation as he leave Reina and her group behind. He also notices in the corner of his right eye that Kim and his group were walking toward him with Loben behind them.

His classmates were already entering the room as he grabbed a chair and moved it slightly behind as Kim followed behind him slipping through the chair while a girl with glasses also entered behind Kim with a cup of drink and stumbles onto the chair making the girl with glasses tripped and makes her drink poured onto Kim's back.

The girl who tripped, froze as she didn't see the chair. All of Oliver's classmates seeing this were also shocked, not expecting to see Kim like this.

Kim who had his back drenched with the cold drink also froze as he looked at Oliver who didn't look behind as he went to grab a chair and sit as he looked outside the window. Kim didn't know if this was coincidental or not as there's no way Oliver did it.

Unknown to others Oliver, who had been staring outside the window smirked as he backtracked earlier. What supposes to happen was Kim, approached while he talked to Reina and embarrassed him in front of them.

The backtracking earlier was smooth there was no headache or anything as though what he did now was supposed to happen.
