The class finally end. The truth is I'm not really heard all the explanations. This class quite boring, the same feeling as linguistic class back in Earth.

But it looks like not just me who was suffering.

"Phew- it's finally over." Bam yawned. I looked at him and smiled.

"Thought I was the only one."

Before Bam can reply, someone joined our conversation.

"You look tired, mr. Bam." He's Hoh. A person with long blonde hair and clothes which looks like hanbok from Korea. Many readers confused him as a girl but he is actually a boy.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Hoh. Pleasure to meet you." Hoh smiled sweetly.

It's hard for me to like this guy because as someone who knows the plot, I knew he was an antagonist. His 'kind' smiles is just a mask to get what he wants. But I can't make him my enemy now or Bam's progressions will be in chaos.

Contrary to my conflicted face, someone responded with a big smile.

"Me too, mr. Hoh."

Bam, you never disappointed me.

Then, Hoh suddenly sat BETWEEN me and Bam. Woah~ boy, do you want to pick a fight?

Kidding. I'm not that brave. So I reluctantly move farther from Bam.

"It's difficult right? Learning this shinsu stuff."

"Um.. yeah.. actually I can't understand it at all."

"Haha.. that happens when you are new."

Well, they continued their conversation without me. Just ignore me. I just sulking at the corner.

"But what helps to control shinsu is not the knowledge, it's talent. I think you are talented so you'll be able to control it soon."

Bam denied softly.

"Me? Talented? I don't think so. By the way, you seem to already know how to control shinsu."

Hoh made a shinsu ball on his hand and juggling it.

"Well, I can do this."

"WOW! THAT'S AMAZING!"

Bam praised him but he was low-key about it.

"Not at all. This is the limit of my talent. It is too weak to use it on the battle. I don't really get why I was placed in the wave controller position."

Then he turned towards Lauroe.

"Don't you agree, mr. Lauroe?" asked Hoh.

The asked person probably just wake up from a very deep sleep.

"Yawn-- that's true."

Bam was shocked. He quickly got up and encouraged Hoh.

"OH NO! I DON'T THINK SO! YOU MUST HAVE A HUGE TALENT--"

Before Bam can finished his sentence, Lauroe cut it.

"Nope."

Now Bam got an angry expression on his face. This my first time saw it. A new fresh air contrary to his polite image.

"Wh.. WHAT?! AREN'T YOU BEING TOO RUDE TO SOMEONE ELSE?!"

Even when Rachel is a bitch, but sometimes her teaching is good. Bam won't be like this without her. I thank you just for this one, Rachel.

Lauroe stand up. He walked toward Bam.

"Hey, boy. Give me your hand." He commanded.

"Huh?"

"Your hand."

"My hand? Like this?" Bam showed his hand.

"Yes. And imagine. That all the world gathers in your hand and becomes a circle." said Lauroe.

Bam did what was told. Slowly, a white circle appeared on his hand.

"W.. WHAT?! WHAT IS THIS LIGHT! OH.. IT'S GONE! WHAT IS ALL THIS--"

Bam purely panicked. Me too, was amazed. So this is the legendary power of MC!

"That's what you call 'talent', boy." Lauroe walked passed us.

I observed the expression people made. Bam obviously shocked. But the one more shocked was Hoh. His mouth couldn't close for a while.

Lauroe's back got farther. His blanket slowly faded from my sight.

Bam already make a breakthrough. AAAGGGHHH...!!! WHAT SHOULD I DO?!

I was laying on my bed. My hair was in messed. Why this world is so unfair? Bam discovered his power easy enough to make him a genius. But what about me?

We both irregular. But I don't have his talent. This world requires me to get stronger or get killed. Ugh.. I hope my first plan to stick to Bam will go smoothly.

"I can't be like this. I don't want to be the useless one, even worse than Rachel. Okay, (y/n), you got it. It's just like asking guidance for a math question to someone more capable than you." I calmed myself.

So, let's do our first quest to stay alive in this world.

(ASK FOR GUIDANCE ON SHINSU LEARNING) (UNLOCKED)

After a lot of askings, I finally knew the whereabout of Lauroe. Yes, you didn't see it wrong. It's none other than Pon Secal Lauroe.

Born from Eurasia family. He naturally has an innate talent for shinsu control. Also this person was Bam's teacher. Hence, he was the best teacher for me.

I knocked his room.

Knock knock

Once again. Knock knock.

My spirit already went down and I slowly turned back. Suddenly there was a sound of the knob moving.

Ckiiiiitt--

The door slightly opened. Just slightly. The light was turn off so I can't see what's inside.

"If it's not important, just go. I want to sleep." familiar voice came from the other side.

Oh, what a polite greeting.

"N--no, mr. Lauroe! I need your help. Please help me!" I gave him the most pitiful puppy eyes I got.

The other stayed silent. Maybe I'll like that too if someone disturb my sleep. But it's urgent at least for me! He usually sleeps a lot too.

"My name is (y/n). I'm sorry if I make you uncomfortable. Really. I need your help. You are the strongest in our class. Please let me be your student."

This was the most cheezy lines I said all of my life. Lauroe, if you still don't accept me, I will really cry at the corner.

Exceeding my expectations, he stepped out of his room. Of course with big blanket tugged on. He frowned a little but nothing more.

Did.. did I succeed?

He walked toward a big guest room. I followed him.

This room was built for regulars to do social activities. It's a perfect place for us to rest from exhausting training. Now it is empty. Just me and Lauroe.

He sat on a sofa. I sat in front of him. If we see clearly, this person in front of me is a handsome man. His dark green hair and eyes really compliment his light skin. His eyes always seem focused even when he just wakes up. People on earth won't believe me if I tell them this man's age is is more than one hundred. Since shinsu froze your physic, he can't age much.

"Explain yourself." Lauroe said.

I'm a bit taken aback from that. But I quickly recovered.

"I was placed in the wave controller class but actually my skill and knowledge for shinsu almost reach zero. I watched you guided Bam earlier. I hope you can teach me until I can use shinsu a bit efficiently. At least to defend myself." I said it with one breath. Gahh-- so nervous.

My soon-to-be teacher looked at me blankly. He yawned again.

"You know, right? Controlling shinsu is different for every person? You need talent to do so."

I looked down. Self-esteem -100.

"Y-yes."

"Don't look so hopeless already. I didn't say you have no talent."

Hearing that, my gaze point at Lauroe. Shocked decorated my face. He smiled a little.

"Even if it's just a tiny talent. No matter how small it is. It is still a talent."

Now I feel like crying. Oh, God, so you don't abandon me.

"I knew you are different from that blonde. Your match before showed you have a talent as wave controller. We just need to find the right key."

My tears couldn't stop streaming. My blurry eyes hindered my vision but nothing can stop me in this moment.

I stand up and bowed towards Lauroe.

"Th- THANK YOU MR. LAUROE! I WILL NEVER FORGET YOUR BENEVOLENCE!"

This time, Lauroe was shocked. He didn't expect me to bow.

I straightened my body. Truly felt grateful, I smiled at him.

Shocked expression on this man's face remained for a moment. Then his face came back to normal.

"From tomorrow, we will start practicing. Prepare yourself." He stand up.

"Yes!" I was grinning so much. My mouth a bit hurt but I didn't mind.

I had a habit to not think about my actions much before doing it. A sudden feeling engraved me.

"Lauroe!"

Hearing my call, the dark green haired person turned his head.

"Thank you, for not turning me down."

The man in the front weakly smiled. He continued his way.

With that, my first lesson with the new teacher started.
