BXBX NOVEL Chapter 53 53. Desk Mates
It's no wonder that the heads of the revolutionary army had been assassinated several times and even the mighty Sirius Vexx was killed!
Facing a background like Empire, they really were just a group of fireflies dancing in front of a dazzling sun!
Lucius was originally shocked and excited by the display but after realising these guys weren't his allies but enemies, he became demotivated.
Fortunately he was in the middle of the academy and could throw away the responsibility of the revolutionary army for now . If he was still stuck there and had to come up with a reasonable way to fight these guys he might end up seriously depressed .
Not wanting to think too much, Lucius opened the door to the class room and walked inside.
As Lucius walked in he could see that there were already several other students that had arrived before him.
But since he had already seen most of them yesterday in the dormitory he didn't for us in them too much and instead looked at the classroom .
To be honest Lucius wasn't that impressed.
The classroom was really quite regular.
Lucius even had the faint illusion that he was sent back to his previous life.
Although the classroom couldn't have electric lights hanging on the roof or radiators on the side.
Magic engineering meant that the magic devices that could achieve similar effects.
The layout out the academy was similar to that of a standard classroom
Each student with their own desk lined up next to each other in several rows.
Lucius didn't know the exact number of students in the Hero Class but he knew there were around 30+ students and the scary thing about the hero class was that the students in the class itself were subject to Change.
Remember, not everyone in the hero class was a golden grade talent. There were several people with purple grade talents amongst them.
Naturally there would also be people with purple grade talents amongst the other classes.
In order to promote completion and prevent the students in the Heroic Class from becoming too arrogant there were opportunities for the students in the class to change.
If someone was added to
The hero class, it could be a moment of joy and celebration for that person and their family but if you were one did the people unlucky enough to be demoted
From the hero class the shame would simply be too Much to bear.
As this was happening Lucius don't go up to
Sparks to
Camilla be Alice he instead went and looked for his seat.
Lucius found that his seating position was just a little bit past the middle row and he was just one seat away from the window.
Walking up Lucius found his seat and took a look at his desk mates.
As Lucius looked to the seat to his left beside the window.
It was a petite girl with baby pink hair, her pretty face was down buried in a book but it wasn't as much reading as it was a way to hide.
Seeing that he would be next to this person for rest of the years Lucius thought he should at least introduce himself but that's when he heard a notification go off

'So that's Nina Huh…' thought Lucius
'She sure does fit the quiet timid image the book had given her.'
In a way Lucius felt like he was liking at a cute but timid mouse
"Hello, I'm Lucius. It's a pleasure to meet to do let's get along"
"Ah, tha…. That's…. Ah…."
Nina just stuttered as she tried to get her words out
"Ah… it's nice to meet you. You smell nice.. no.. I mean..."
Nina's face just turned red as she was left completely embarrassed
She was not good with people so panicked when Lucius spoke to her blurting out whatever she had on her mind
'So embarrassing… I want to disappear!'
Lucius looked at the blushing girl and the giant impulse to tease her appeared in his heart
"Sonm what do I smell like?" Asked Lucius.
He was a little curious. Each heroine had their own desired smell and since the charming scent was a purple grade talent, it could never be simple.
"That.." murmured Nina
"I don't know how to put it into words but.. you.. you smell like magic?"
Lucius: !!
What the…
Lucius was invested now and wanted to ask her more but looking at Nina that was completely red. He felt that if he pushed her anymore she might just pass out out of embarrassment.
Lucius looked to his right to take a look at his desk mate, but when he looked there he found that the desk was still left empty.
Lucius didn't think too much about it and just brought the relevant books and stationary out from his bag.
It was then he looked to see that Xander and his entourage entered the classroom.
It's just that unlike the day before, the entourage had shrunk greatly and the people around him this time weren't gathering around him like lackeys.
Lucius could see no disdain in the way they talked to each other. This wasn't the look of a lackey and his boss but the look of pure equals.
Shortly after they entered, Lucius could see a purple haired beauty waking towards him.
It was only when she sat down and pulled out
Hello there miss, we meet again. What a coincidence that after our unpleasant encounter yesterday we now end up as desk mates.``
"Humph!"
Veronica just scoffed, disdaining to even maintain conversation with him.
Faced with a response like this, Lucius could just scratch his head in embarrassment
He thought with his handsome looks and charming scent that he could at least leave a good impression but it looks like he really had overestimated himself.
