H.e.r.o. - Chapter 35

After that incident, no other events happened within those two months as Helios was expecting retaliation from the members of the Atlantean club but no such event happened within those months.

Helios along with his friends had already finished enrolling at the Royal Azure University after they received the results of their entrance exam.

When the class started Helios wasn’t planning in attending the university orientation but because he is the one of top three scorers in the freshmen entrance exam he was required to attend and give a motivational speech to his fellow students.

As Helios and his friend are walking to the gymnasium where the ceremony is going to take place, Helios saw Aemie and Janet walking in the direction of the gymnasium along with Dexter, he then called the three of them while running into there location, Rizal and Andres follow the running Helios when they saw Aemie and the other in the direction where Helios is running.

After greeting each other their group started walking into the building while talking about something thing.

When they arrived inside the gymnasium the place was crowded with students from different nationalities.

They were able to find an available seat at the back row.

A few minutes later, the welcoming ceremony for the university orientation started.

After the welcoming ceremony and opening speech.

Helios and Andres were called along with someone named Thomas Morgan to give their motivational speech as the top three scorers in the freshmen entrance exam.

The applause could be heard inside the building after their names were called.

Helios and Andres got up from their seat as they start walking onto the stage after their name was called.

The man named Thomas Morgan haughtily approaches Helios when they arrived on the stage.

” your Helios right?”

Morgan asked

Helios nods his head to Morgan’s question.

” Young master Ramsey gives his warning to you that you must stay away from Ms. Aemie if know what’s good for you”

Morgan points his finger as threaten Helios.

Hearing what he said Helios was smiling from ear to ear.

” why don’t you tell your weak young master that he should do it himself instead of ordering someone”

Helios replied as he taunted Morgan.

Morgan was enraged after hearing Helios replied but he calms himself down as he doesn’t want to disgrace his Young master.

” You will regret everything you said”

Morgan said as he walked into the platform to say his motivational speech as the first placer of the entrance exam.

” Don’t worry I won’t”

Helios responds to aggravate Morgan.

” Say do you want me to declare the war against those top 20 ability users on the island?

“or do you want to do it yourself?”

Helios asked Andres because he knows that Andres wanted to have a battle against strong opponents.

” you do what you want and I’ll do what I want”

Andres replied without care.

” Ok”

Helios said as the two of them wait until Morgan finishes his address.

The students give their applause to Morgan after his speech while the clapping continues as he walked away from the platform.

When Helios name was called he also received applause.

” Hello to you all my fellow students, I would like to keep my speech short because I wasn’t able to prepare anything, so here is what I’m gonna say,

” I declare war to those top 20 ability user,

” that’s all thank you”

Helios said with an indifferent expression.

The students were stunned as their mind was still processing the things that Helios said in his address which causes the gymnasium to be dead silent as the only thing that can be heard is Helios footsteps as he walked away from the platform.

A few seconds later, the students came out of their daze state and start cursing Helios for his arrogant behavior, they start throwing any throwable object at Helios that was walking out of the stage to show their displeasure to his arrogant speech.

The items that they have been throwing at him bounce off from his body as he already covers his body with his energy armor before he did his speech.

After Helios got off the stage the students calm their anger as they promise to each other that they will make Helios life in the university miserable.

After the students calm down, the MC then called the last student to give his address.

_*_*_

In the back row where Aemie and the other is sitting.

Aemie is massaging her forehead after hearing Helios address, she was already expecting that Helios would do something reckless after being quiet for two months.

Dexter instantly covers the four of them with his illusion making them invisible to the other students besides themselves.

” We should go strangle that bastard because of what he did we will also be targeted by the scorn from the students of the whole campus after this incident”

Dexter said as he is annoyed about Helios arrogant speech.

” We should silently leave right now before things get chaotic”

Rizal said to them while worrying about what is going to happen next.

” let’s go to where Helios is”

Aemie suggested with her calm attitude.

The four of them go to where Helios is.

_*_*_

When Helios was walking down the stage Aemie along with his other friends appeared in front of him.

Aemie and Janet raise their eyebrows which made Helios hardly swallowed his saliva.

He was pinched by Aemie in his side causing him to squeal in agony while also receiving death glares from his friends.

” let me explain”

Helios said to them while having a fearful expression.

He didn’t wait for their approval as he already starts explaining but before he could even start his explanation they heard Andres speech which had a similar meaning to what Helios said in his address although Andres said his speech in a polite way.

Causing the whole crowd not to get angry at his address.

” This is so unfair,

” Andres also declare war to the top 20 ability users on the island but he didn’t even receive any violent reactions”

Helios enviously mumble but he was still heard by Aemie and his friends.

At the stage where some of the members of the student council are monitoring and facilitating the whole event.

A man with his green-colored hair and jade-colored eyes was massaging the temple of his head after hearing Helios speech.

” another headache”

The man said as he continues massaging his head.

Beside him is a female that has silver hair and blue eyes, as she is covering her mouth while she chuckles at the man’s antic.

_*_*_

In the room where the university instructor and the members of the university board are monitoring the university orientation.

” hahahahahaha”

An old man with a gray beard was laughing after hearing Helios announcement.

” That kid is courageous ”

The old man added after laughing.

” President Anderson we must teach this student a lesson for his pridefulness ”

With an exasperated look on his face, a man with light brown hair suggested to the old man.

The other instructors and members of the university board nod in approval of what the man said.

” Why do you need to punish the student? what school rules did this student break?”

A woman with chest-length black hair that is in her late twenty’s opposed to the man’s recommendation.

Hearing her remark the remaining instructors and members of the university board agreed to what she said.

After listening to what the two instructors said the old man they called President Anderson rub his goatee creating a sagely demeanor.

” what instructor Coline said is right,

” since the student didn’t break any of our school rules and besides saying something new in his speech as one of the top three high scorers for the entrance exam was refreshing unlike those previous top three where they always rant about their hard work, how to never gave up, I will do my best, let’s do our best, et cetera, et cetera

” Just from hearing those previous top three students speech made me think that the quality of students that are enrolling into our university is declining,

” also instructor Wilbur you shouldn’t let your emotion control your judgment”

President Anderson said as he lectures Wilbur’s decision.

Hearing the President’s judgment the people present in the room didn’t show any opposition.

The old man looked at the monitor where Helios can be seen walking out of the stage while being hit by the object that was thrown into him.

The thing that the old man noticed is that Helios wasn’t harmed as not even a scratch appeared skin while even his clothes didn’t become crumpled while being hit by the items that were being thrown to him by the offended students.

When he properly look at Helios, he notices that his whole body was covered by an invisible membrane.

Anderson was fascinated by this new student in his school.

As Helios got down from the stage the old man moves his attention to the last student that is going to give his address.

” Why don’t we all focus on the last student is going to say his speech”

President Anderson said, reminding them that there is still another student that would say his address.

‘ let see if you also have the courage just like your friends’

The old man said to himself as he was expecting something from the student that had a friendly relationship with Helios.
