Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 62
All students of the school were surprised to see Jane calling out everyone to meet in front of the mansion.
Jane was the president, although not in name, but she was the one that took care of the things inside the school, alongside her teacher, Wisa.
“Do you know why they are gathering everyone here?”
“I have no idea.”
“Me neither.”
The students all whispered to each other, and it seemed no one knew the reason behind what was happening.
Fifty students gathered in front of the mansion. It was not that many, but it was a considerable amount, as Odemore only accepted people with decent talent, and it was a new school.
“Attention, everyone.”
The moment Jane said, everyone shut their mouths. No one muttered a word.
“I’m here today to announce that the president of the academy has returned!” “What? Where is he?” People got euphoric, as no student of the school had ever met the president. He was like a myth to them. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖
.
“Silence.” Wisa was the one saying that.
They all shut their mouths again, and gazed at a person right behind Jane and Wisa.
It was Arthur. He was not wearing the same clothes as before, but now wore the school’s uniform.
The clothing was made of fine fabric, and what stood out the most was the black cape above his shoulders that was adorned with gold filaments.
Arthur was well-dressed, just like an academy president should. The pants and the shirt reminded him of the ‘social’ attire people used in his world.
He made sure to gaze at the noble guy that kept talking shit about him, and when their eyes met, the guy looked to the side, avoiding it.
“Ha, I’ll not expel this guy, but I’ll sure make his life a living hell, at least until he changes his attitude.” Arthur thought.
“Please, greet our president, Arthur.” Jane said.
When everyone saw who the president was, they were surprised. They remembered Arthur taking the entrance test, and breaking the magical orb.
Harmony, the blonde woman responsible for the test was also shocked. It turned out that talented youth was the president of the academy.
“You! That’s, how?” Harmony said, and Arthur simply smiled at her.
The students came up with the theory that Arthur was in that boat with the students to spy on new talents, and they all saw him as a mysterious figure.
A few of them wanted to smash their heads after seeing the huge statue in front of the school.
“How did I not recognize him?”
It was incredible. Arthur’s title changed, and now every student was afraid of pissing him off, and they all wanted favors from him.
Everyone wanted the good side of the president. Arthur was excited for it.
“Building up an academy, hm. Maybe I can get strong enough to return to land, and dominate that kingdom?” Arthur thought.
Arthur looked at all of his students, and started his speech.
“I’m Arthur, the president of this academy. It is a pleasure to meet all of you.”
The students got excited, but Arthur continued.
“I saw that many of you have different grades of talent, but let me remind you. Talent is not everything. I want everyone working hard to achieve what you are looking,”
“I want good for all of you, and I also think everyone here wants me on their side, so for that, you must work hard and show commitment.”
The speech was not that creative, but it was what Arthur thought given the short time. Still, the speech was true.
Countless times Arthur had seen these so-called talented people fooling around doing nothing. He would not let that happen inside his academy.
After that, all the students left to do their own stuff.
“So, want to see your room?” Jane said.
“Sure.”
They walked through the academy, and a few students gazed at Arthur. Things had turned upside down in just one day.
The president’s room was on the highest floor, which was the third floor.
A massive double-door well decorated. There were also two flower pots in front, which made the place look nice.
“That’s your room. You can explore it on your own. We have to prepare the classes for tomorrow.”
Wisa, Jane, and Harmony were the only teachers the academy had at that moment. It was not a good thing, and Arthur wanted to address that as soon as possible, although there weren’t many options around.
“Okay. I’ll see you later.”
“Arthur, this room right here is my room. You can come visit me there at any time.” Jane said, and pointed to a room next to where they stood.
“My room is that one. You can visit me at any time too.” Wisa was the one saying now, and she pointed to another room, just besides Jane’s.
Both of them were almost throwing themselves at Arthur. The only one that wasn’t doing that was Harmony, but Arthur knew her time would come too.
“Okay, okay. I’ll remember that.”
With that, they parted ways. Arthur was excited to have a peek in how his room looked, and when he did that, he was impressed.
The room had plenty of space, and was well-decorated. The first part had his main desk, with a comfy chair, and lots of books and papers around.
It looked like a normal office. But there was another double-door on the right side of the room, which led to another room, and that was where Arthur would live.
A king-sized bed, a bathroom, an improvised kitchen, and a balcony. It had lots of things inside, and was the size of a house.
“This is incredible. It reminds me of the rooms back in the palace.”
What Arthur got was a luxurious room, which he deserved considering how much struggle he had passed these past months.
“I can finally chill. My next goal is to rebuild this place into something great, and marry my two wives, Jane and Wisa.” Kai’s training would also start. Not only his magical training, but the more combat-oriented training to utilize the most of his bloodline, and, after two months, someone gave a sign of life.
Sully moved again, but this time, it was hatching!
