Chapter 276: I wonder what they are made of.
"To be honest I don\'t know how you were put under the VIP student list because your achievements and sacrifice for the school shouldn\'t be enough." Professor Karina said in a pondering tone.
"If I may ask. who are the other students who are part of the VIP students?\' Blake asked.
"Since you are part of the VIP students, I don\'t see any harm in letting you know." Professor Karina said in her sweet voice. "The VIP students are just 3 in number. You, Luciano, and Damon."
\'Damon?\' Blake was surprised when he heard the last name.
[Seems he has way more background than we thought, but at least we know who put you on the VIP list.] The system said. Once they heard that Luciano was on the list of VIP students, they didn\'t need an extra second to know that Prince Bryon was behind it.
After the breaching of the school\'s core and the assassination attempt on Blake\'s life, it was safe to say that only a handful of people could be trusted. So, it was necessary for Bryon to put him under Professor Karina\'s care to avoid an assassination attempt when he was weak or injured.
"What is the time?" Blake asked as he carried out the habit of looking around the room in search of a clock.
"It is dinner time and your meal will soon be brought to you, once you place your order." Professor Karina said as she pointed at the holographic terminal on his bedside.
"Don\'t worry about that… I will go eat with my friends at the canteen. Thanks a lot for the treatment." Blake said as he slowly got up in pain before proceeding to the doors.
"I feel clean and my clothes are new, did what I think happen?" Blake stopped at the door before turning around and asking.
"You don\'t have to worry. We use the light element to clean every corner of your body and to heal your injuries. Also, there are multiple ways to fix your clothing without taking off. So no Mr. Blake, I didn\'t see you naked." Professor Karina said with a chuckle.
"Thanks once again for the treatment, Professor Karina." Blake performed another bow before leaving the room.
\'I can finally see why so many boys are happy when they are being sent to the clinic.\' Blake said to himself as he remembered the smiles that were on the faces of most guys when they were injured.
[I hope you are not having plans of doing dangerous things just to go back there?] The system asked when he saw the smile on Blake\'s face.
"Why would I?" Blake said with a smirk.
…
Using the warp array located in the school clinic Blake warped to the canteen where he joined up with his friends.
"How are you guys doing?" Blake greeted as he took a seat.
"We should be asking you that." Castiel said.
"Just a little headache and a lot of hunger." Blake said as he was looking through the menu.
"So, what happened after I passed out?" Blake asked when he was done ordering.
"Well nothing much, just that Castiel and a few in the top 10 were able to make it past the second line, but no one else passed the exercise." Brian said.
"Let me guess Damon, Camilla, Owen, and Layla." Blake didn\'t need to think.
"How are you so accurate?" Brian asked with a raised brow.
"Because I have seen and gauged all the top 10\'s strength. The key to passing the 1st line comes down to mostly your physical prowess, and the above I mentioned are skilled when it comes to physical capabilities and speed." Blake explained.
By then his food had arrived and he began munching away.
The group continued chatting and Blake found out that he hadn\'t missed the forge mastery class because Professor Tacitus had once again missed class. That was when the system informed that the commoner he had saved some weeks back was being bullied by the same set of guys he beat.
\'This is why I don\'t like helping those being bullied.\' Blake said to himself as he began contemplating on what to do.
The thing with stepping in for someone that is getting bullied was that once their savior is gone, the bullying continues. But once the oppressed stands up for himself, he either gets killed or the oppression ends for good.
\'Who am I kidding, that is a situation when you don\'t have families that can be targeted by the nobles.\' Blake stood up from his seat.
"I will be back soon." Blake excused himself and began walking towards the direction of the table the commoner was at.
It turned out that the commoner was having dinner with his friends and the nobles showed up.
Not to have extra bullying for what wasn\'t their business, his friends ditched him, leaving 5 empty seats for the bullies to seat on.
Bang!
While the nobles were still telling him of what Blake had done to them and explaining what they were going to do to him. A loud bang was heard from the table and when they turned, they saw that one of their friends was knocked out and the table on which his head was on was damaged.
"Wow! I wonder what these tables are made of." Blake said as he threw the unconscious noble out of the chair before seating down.
On seeing who it was the other nobles instinctively tried to get up and distant themselves, but there seemed to be a force that was holding them down.
"So, what do we have here?" Blake said in a nonchalant tone as he didn\'t bother to look at the nobles, but was staring at the commoner.
