Chapter 52 Part One: A Harsh Lesson
The name of the middle aged woman is Natalia Burris. She is part of the chef\'s team. After seeing Vincent Class A2\'s batch, she is concerned that someone will notice later and find fault on her. So he decided to tell the chef.
She knows that Chef Garner has some good relationships with students in Class A1 personally. Once she tells him, he will then report it to the students.
Sometimes later,
Just as she expected, after revealing the news to the chef. It didn\'t take an hour for the news to spread among the cooking staff.
Since the classes are going on, it will take some time for students to know. But she suspects that Chef had already conveyed the news. We can only confirm it during the break time.
Unaware of Natalia\'s actions, Vincent is attentively listening to lectures and taking notes in Class A2.
At Class A1,
An old man is taking a class about human anatomy. But students were dozing off, they were not so concerned about this class. Because the old man will not scold them anyway.
At this time,
"Beep!" "Beep!" "Beep!"
Frank\'s watch vibrates due to notification. Like others he has been bored by the class. So, he casually views the notification. Seeing it\'s the message from Chef Garner.
Frank squinted his eyes, "Why this guy is sending message in the middle of the class?" Frank thought to himself. But anyway he decided to read it.
After reading the message, his poker face changes drastically. A bit of surprise, anger and doubt filled his expression. For a moment, he thought the chef was drunk. How come someone else would eat food at their class\'s cafeteria? "It\'s absurd," Frank muttered.
Then without minding the notification, he tries to listen to the boring class.
While seeing no reponds from Frank, Chef Garner is in confusion. For a moment his mind told him that Frank is listening to the class, so don\'t disturb him. "No f***ing way!" Chef Garner said in his heart.
Chef Garner knows too well about Frank. He has a good friendship with him. Other than fighting, Frank won\'t be interested in anything else. Scratching his head, Chef Garner ponders." Should I text others about it? "He thought.
Apart from Frank Lambert, he knows few mages in Class A1. But they are in the top 20 ranks. Unlike Frank who is in the Top 5. And talking about bottom level mages. He didn\'t even care to think about it.
In Class A1 there is a hierarchy. No one treats the bottom rank mages in Class A1 as well. As they are a bit poor in power as in comparison to middle rank mages.
That\'s why when Chef Garner learnt someone from Class A2 came to this cafeteria. He is shocked. The Class A2 students were worse than bottom rankers of Class A1. So he really felt unbelievable.
But when he sent a message to Frank Lambert. He made some errors in the content. He did not explicitly mention Class A2 students. In a bit of a hurry to send the message, he typed it as some random person.
If he had typed Class A2, Frank would have reacted differently. The name of Vincent would strike his mind instantly. So right now, Chef Garner decided to tell Frank later.
...
(From MC Perspective)
Time progresses,
The time of break eventually comes,
Earlier, Some bottom rankers in Class A1 tried to find Vincent during lunch hours. But they didn\'t find him in the end.
Seeing the break hour right now, they decide to go again.
Just as they expected, after arriving at the 5th floor. They interrogated someone to find the answer. Vincent is in Class A2 right now. After knowing that they hurried towards Class A2.
Since it\'s a lunch break, most of the students are walking along the corridor. Batch of Class A2 can be seen clearly on their uniform.
Hearing the loud footsteps coming towards them, Class A2 students reacted immediately. But upon seeing the batch of Class A1, they were panic stricken. "Why are these devils coming towards our class?"
They hurriedly emptied the place and walked back to their class.
An arrogant smile can be seen on Class A1 students. They Thought, Even though they are bottom rankers in their class, compared to these pigs, they were way much better. So they were quite satisfied by seeing their reactions.
Inside Class A2,
Sigh, I\'m going to stop taking notes hereafter. It\'s really terrible. Just as I was feeling irritated, I saw students walk back in hurriedly. There is some chaos and quarrel.
Seeing that my eyebrows furrow further, "What happened? Why they so look unsettled?""
I watched as I sat back in my seat. Earlier, I thought about walking outside due to a break. But seeing my notes, I felt it\'s better to rewrite some points.
At the same time, Palmer, who was with Timothy outside, noticed something. Palmer\'s eyes set on people coming towards them. "Hmmm"
He noticed students near them hurriedly backed away upon seeing them and making space for them.
But Like others when Palmer eyes on the Class A1 batch, "Damn!" His pupils constrict.
Unlike Class A1 students, Class A2 guys were clueless about the incident. Ms. Rivers didn\'t reveal it. Vincent didn\'t even bother about it. And Fatty Lucas is in absence today.
So seeing a sudden surprise visit from their rivals everyone here is flustered.
"Palmer, What\'s going on?" Timothy inquires with somewhat confusion. He has always been careful. Not knowing why this is happening makes him even more unsettled.
Palmer shakes his head in denial. He had a call with Liam yesterday night. But he knows Liam won\'t seek help from these bottom rankers. So, he doesn\'t want to reveal anything. So he answered to Timothy, "No, I don\'t know"
Timothy raised his eyebrows, "Could it be ?" He thought of some possibility. An image of three persons flashes before his eyes.
"Timothy ?" Palmer called out. Seeing Timothy went into deep thinking. He suspects he might know something.
Timothy came back to his senses and said, "if nothing else, I bet something to do with Vincent Carey."
When Palmer heard that he faked his expression. He knows it\'s a feud between Vincent and some Class A1 students. "So, it has to do with him. But Vincent is the one who got beaten instead. I wonder why they came back again." Palmer said with somewhat confusion. But he literally put up an act.
Timothy too nodded in confusion.
Just as their conversation came to an end. The Class A1 students came to the entrance. "Who is Vincent Carey ?" Hearing that everyone was stunned and turned their gazes towards Vincent Carey.
"Uh" I tilted my neck to glance at the entrance. Seeing Class A1 students came here with such fanfare. I smiled and stood from my seat. Earlier, I wondered. It\'s been half a day since there was no sound from Class A1 students. And even there is no wind of Liam.
Seeing Vincent walking towards them, Class A2 students backed off. "So, you are Vincent Carey?" One of the bottom rankers from Class A1 opened his mouth.
Clearly disdain can be seen in his eyes, When he said that.
"Yes, I\'m Vincent Carey. Do you need something?" I said with a small smile on my face.
Seeing that Class A1 students were stunned for a while. And his disain eyes fumes with anger. "This SC**s from Class A2 is behaving as per rumour" He thought to himself.
"Harumph, Our leader asked you to visist our common podium." The bottom ranker said.
"Common podium uh?" I muttered. There is an old stadium in our school. It\'s under renovation. And why were these buffoons asking me to go there? Next moment, I cracked a smile.
I understood their abacus. But they don\'t know exactly what I want from them.
"Okay, I\'ll go there with you" After saying that I left with them.
The Class A2 students stood stunned. They couldn\'t believe their own ears. Vincent Carey casually went back with them. At this time, Palmer and Timothy looked at each other.
When both of them heard, it was Liam. Palmer knew it had something to do with yesterday\'s event. And Liam actually picks up the spot of our common podium. I heard there were security guards monitoring it.
What is this Liam is upto? He is literally asking for death. Once the security guard caught them red handed, then it\'s over. For a moment, he couldn\'t control his curiosity. He wanted to know what was going to happen, so did others.
Seeing his classmates discussing seriously. Palmer snorted back by saying, "What are you gossiping about? Do you want to get reprimanded by Ms. Rivers?"
Hearing Palmer\'s words everyone went back to their places. Whatever happens with Vincent, it has nothing to do with them. So they went back quietly. And exactly at this time, the break time was over.
Upon viewing the time, Palmer knows the teacher must be on his way towards our class.
