Chapter 27 Cementing Friendship
(From MC Perspective)
After arriving in front of the canteen, We bought new food to have for lunch. Fortunately, this time there are no pests around here to disturb us. Both of us sat comfortably to eat.
The Lunch duration is about 1 Hour 30 Min. Right now, One hour has already passed, and there is only half an hour remaining. We still have plenty of time in their hands before the start of the next class.
We can finish our lunch without hurrying. The Crowd around the canteen has gone away. Only one or two people can be seen around the premises.
Seeing that fatty is gulping down the food, I asked, " Lucas, Earlier, You wanted to tell me something. What about it?" Quite a while ago he seemed anxious about something.
Hearing that Lucas stopped eating his food and commented, "Gosh, if you haven't reminded me now, I would have forgotten the topic." Fatty's expression was solemn.
Then he added, "You see those people from earlier scuffle belong to Class A1. Majority of them, Probably 99.9%, have already started practising their mental method; If you plan to take revenge on them, it would be difficult for you without having sufficient strength."
"Sigh"
Hearing his words, I knew this would be the case. Because, I already saw through his (Bruce Hill) status using the system. What amazes me is that his mental method is not a graded one? Otherwise the system would have shown me the grade of his mental method.
The other hand, the old women's mental method is incomplete and there is no grade as well. To have some clarity, I should next probe the details of Ms. Rivers. As a Class Teacher, I believe she must have practised a highly graded mental method.
But coming back to the topic, the fatty is right. I can't say for sure that even if I forget this incident. Those three will do the same. Before the poisonous women's team will do something, I should get my hands on the mental method.
Yes, This is the right choice. I'll discuss it with mum and dad. If I need money, I'll get a job later. Then I'll see what can they do, if they cross path with me next time. I must teach them unforgettable lesson. After clearing out my thoughts, I made a firm decision in mind.
Seeing Vincent went into deep thinking, Lucas thought Vincent is seriously considering this matter. Then suddenly he commented, "Vincent, What is your ambition?" He knew why those trio were quite scared after knowing Vincent's talent. Because, Vincent has a bright future ahead.
"Hmmm" Fatty's words brought me back to reality.
"Ambition uh?"
Of course a year ago, if someone asked me this type of question. I would have answered, I love binge watching at home all day and night. But now having a system in my hands to help me, it's a matter of time before I walk out of our planet and step into wider space exploration.
There is also one more reason for it, to increase the lifespan of my family. Unless they get the next breakthrough their life span won't increase. Which is seriously troubling me when I think about it.
<strong>[But what Vincent doesn't know is that in future he will be solely responsible for his family's death.]</strong>
Then I turned towards the fatty and said, smiling, "Of course, It's a wider space."
Fatty wore a wide grin after hearing that he commented, "If someone had said it, I would have considered it as bluffing. But for you it's possible. I might be sitting in front of future Space Explorer."
And in the next moment, fatty's expression turned serious, "Vincent, If you need any help. You can ask me without any hesitation. I can even help you with supplying mana filled meat"
Hearing that I looked fat in curiosity.
Lucas added, "I knew you have some sense of measure. But you won't believe me. I love space. Even in movies, l love characters who have space related powers."
Then he embarrassingly said, "I would like to have a friendship with a future space explorer."
Hearing his explanation, I feel "This fatty is honest as Fu*k!" But I like him. Not only for his honesty but also for his mana filled meat.
I accepted his friendship and said, "Don't worry! We will be good friends hereon."
Fatty's expression turned joyful, when he heard that.
"Tring!"
My watch buzzes with notification.
It's a call from dad. Seeing that I turned on privacy mode. This watch had my DNA identification. When set into privacy mode, no one can hear my call except me. Even the fatty in front of me won't hear the conversation.
When the call connected, I heard, "Vincent, There is a big surprise for you waiting at home. Come here asap, It's highly important." Father's seriousness filled surprised voice rang in my ears. My expression condensed hearing that.
Brad Carey said with a serious tone. Then he ended the call. I'm stunned hearing his call. Usually, he doesn't call me unless there is something important. But this time he clearly mentioned it, without even divulging the information. I need to go home.
"Fatty, You can go back to class after completing the food on your plate. I'm going back home." After saying that I left the place and walked straight towards the School's exit.
The other hand, Lucas didn't mind his urgency. He knew it must be something important. But what he is glad about is that Vincent accepted his friendship without any prejudice.
Earlier, He was afraid that Vincent wouldn't like to have friendship with some like him who have awakened Fart Power. But now, everything is okay. With a smile on his face he continued to gulp down his food.
On the way, I applied for an emergency leave through my student account. It's also one of the privileges held by those who have awakened Magic. I won't be pestered by management for bunking classes.
