Then, Elder Fang looked at the girls who were swooning at some of the handsome Watchers, his voice having a bit of a warning.

"Furthermore, aside from greetings and introductions, excessive contact and chattering towards them would be heavily frowned upon."

Elder Fang looked at the Watchers who were all in a neat formation before him.

"Go. Select your groups."

The Watchers bowed once before walking towards the students. Some already had a team in mind while others decided to just choose whichever they feel like.

Slowly, each group now had a Watcher. Still observing Raghnall's team, Inna wasn't even surprised when some female Watchers were nearly arguing who would be in charge of their group.

Then, taking her eyes off of his group, Inna looked around and saw that everyone was already actively chatting with their Watcher.

Everyone except for her team.

It's because they had no Watcher at all!

Is this part of that oldie's plan too?

Inna started to get suspicious again.

But this time, she was more confused than worried.

Why the heck would he even do this?

I mean, not being monitored is actually a good thing!

Back in her days, the guys would kill to go on school trips where teachers weren't watching so Inna couldn't figure out what Elder Fang was planning.

Meanwhile, Elder Fang didn't even see that Inna's group had no Watcher. In fact, he never once laid his eyes on them since he pretty much couldn't care less about the people at the bottom of the food chain. Instead, he was surveying the actions of the rest of the students.

"It seems that everyone has said their introductions."

He said as he eyed the numerous students bowing and shaking hands.

"We'll be leaving in a few minutes so please prepare yourselves to leave. We would require all of you to follow me in a line along with your teammates. Also, listen well to your Watcher's instructions."

The students began arranging themselves with the help of the Watchers. And minutes later, almost everyone were already lined up.

Just when Inna was about to rejoice about not having a Watcher in her team, the set of double doors suddenly opened with a bang.

"Sorry! Sorry! Heavens! I'm actually late!"

A man erupted from the open doors. He had a disheveled look. His dark brown hair was sticking out in odd ways and he had were numerous cow licks as well. And behind his round gla.s.ses, his grey eyes had dark circles underneath and it looked even more prominent from his unusually pale skin. His lips also looked quite pale and chapped so he continuously licks them.

He looked like what a scholar would usually look in the ancient times.

Nerdy, weird, and sickly.

The man hurriedly brisk walked towards the teacher's platform. He pushed up his round gla.s.ses that was about to fall off from his nose and he tried to make his crumpled and untidy grey robe look more presentable.

When he noticed everyone's eyes was on him, including Elder Fang's, he immediately knelt down while cupping his hands in front of him.

"Sorry, I'm late! I overslept!"

The man said as he nonchalantly yawned at the end.

Elder Fang almost puked out blood from his statement and behavior.

Overslept!

This student was late for such a big responsibility because he 'overslept'?!

And to think only elite students can be a.s.signed for this role?!

Who the G.o.ds is this kid?!

"Rise. Student, please state your name and cla.s.s."

The man rose to his feet while scratching the back of his head.

"My name? Uhm…. I think it was Ridnel? Or was it Ronda? Or did it start with an L? Linda? Lidnel? No, no I don't think so. Maybe it started with an A? Aidnel? Anda? Or an H? Hidnel? Honda? No, I sound like some weird contraption…"

The man furrowed his brows deeply. He looked really focused as if he's trying to solve the world's hardest puzzle.

"Uhm… I think...I forgot…. Sorry…"

Elder Fang angrily looked at the man while widening his eyes slightly in disbelief.

"Are you making a fool out of me?!"

The man looked at Elder Fang with confusion in his eyes.

"A fool out of you? I-is there a fool inside you?"

"WHAT?"

This time, Elder Fang was speechless from pure confusion instead of anger. In fact, his confusion filled his whole mind, momentarily making him forget his anger.

Little did he know, the man was more confused than him for all the wrong reasons.

"Wait, I'm confused. By fool, you mean a stupid person? According to multiple studies, you can't have a stupid person inside a body. If there's one inside you….. Then, does that mean…"

The man looked at Elder Fang with innocent eyes filled with fascination and expectation.

"Are you pregnant?!"

Hearing this, Elder Fang was about to explode. His face turned red and the veins in his forehead was now bulging out.

But then, after seeing something that caught his eye, he strangely calmed down and even offered the man a genuine smile.

"Such a great joke you've made. Eldora's students should also have a superior sense of humor after all."

He laughed lightly and patted the man on his shoulders.

Upon seeing the sudden change in the old man, Inna couldn't help but be astonished.

Why the f.u.c.k did this not happen to me?

He's always grumpy ever since I saw him despite me not doing friggin' anything.

But this guy did lots of disrespectful s.h.i.+t and he gets a smile?

What the f.u.c.k?

Inna was in pure disbelief. But then, it soon dawned in her the sole reason why Elder Fang became amicable.

It was the thing in his chest.

Or more specifically, it was his 'pin.'

Because the pin he had pinned by the side of his chest, was a carving of a flower that most people would recognize almost immediately.

In short, he has a Rose pin.
