The Cheat Seed - Chapter 62
They pranced through the streets as they neared the Flame Capital Circle. A short journey to the north from the Circle would be enough to reach their destination. THE KROZON INTERN ACADEMY.
People they passed, people on the streets were eyeing the man beside Marcus.
Marcus smiled as he thought
‘Of course being the 3rd most powerful revoker earns you respect, admiration and the most important one out of them all..’
“Dave!!!!…Can I get your Autograph??.Pwwweasee”
A girl suddenly jumped out from the shadows and pushed a book, clipped with a pen towards him. Following her, a dozen of other girls started rushing towards him, all had the same book with Dave’s winking photo on the front cover.
“A Fanbase”
Marcus spoke out his thought and smoothly evaded the incoming fangirls.
“Marc.? HUH!!. MARCUS!!!! DON’T YOU DARE LEAVE ME HERE”
Dave shouted from somewhere deep inside the crowding girls, chanting his name and ‘AUTOGRAPH’.
Marcus didn’t heed to his call and jogged towards the Capital centre. His mouth muttered his thoughts with a grin.
“Sorry My friend..”
His head turned as he started running, a devilish smile fixed on his face.
“This is your war..KEKEKEKEKEKKEKEK”
………
In just 2 minutes, Marcus was in front of the academy gates. He was still chuckling when he thought about Dave and at the same time felt guilty for leaving him alone.
Shaking his head sideways, Marcus stepped on to the Academy concrete floor with his right leg. He always believed that it was a good omen if he started with his right.
Before he could take more than 5 steps towards the academy, His Almighty sense screamed at him. With a quick jolt, Marcus cartwheeled to his right as a Horse Carriage driven by 4 Giant horses missed him by inches.
Landing on the Grass patch, Marcus shot his head up at the Horse Carriage which came to a stop beside the parking lot.
Anger welled inside him as he saw Gabriel stepping out from the carriage. His green hair bobbed as he stepped down the steps.
Marcus’s fists balled and his mind forced him to do something, but his heart held him back. Causing a scene now could be a possible threat for him as he had to maintain utmost discipline now, so that he could get into The Unreal Academy as soon as possible.
Even though Dave had assured him of a spot in The Famous Academy, Even though he was sure he would get into the academy, something held him back telling that he would get a chance to smack him..IN THE EVENING.
‘Of Course’
He thought.
He had a individual battle with Gabriel in the evening. Marcus rubbed his hands together and chuckled, His mask vanished and his beautiful Face shined under the bright sunlight.
His Green pupils were calm and sleek as if they were polished emeralds. He dusted his Capri as he stood up.
Gabriel walked off without giving him a glance. Marcus didn’t care about it anyway and started walking towards the Academy.
A huge board was set up, It said.
[ALUMNI MEET OF BATCH 2021-22]
He flashed a smile to a Bunch of teenage girls who were blushing and pointing at him. With a Jogging stance Marcus stepped through his Academy door as Nostalgia hit him.
It was the same door through which he had walked 2 years ago for about most of his life.
He saw familiar faces as he passed through the Academy hall, Even though he only had Dave, his sole friend during those times he knew how his other classmates looked like too.
Marcus wasnt a weirdo who’d not remember how his classmates looked like.
But he was sure, no one else recognized him in his new looks, Hell!!. He was sure, no one would have even remembered the Old Marcus.
He recognized Miss Sylvie and Professor Jules standing in front of his Old classroom when he turned the corner.
Miss Sylvie had a board in her hands. Marcus assumed she was checking the number of students who came for the Alumni Meet.
Marcus smiled as he reached them and bowed to them, wishing them.
“Good Morning”
Both of the teaching staffs winced in surprise. Their eyes tried to remember the Handsome Man in front of them as it traced through his red hair and then his sharp green eyes.
“Its me ! Marcus G Orno..Nice to meet you again”
He chuckled and entered his classroom, pushing the door agape and leaving his teachers in shock.
The pen fell from her hands as Miss Sylvie ticked the box beside Marcus. Marcus??. She thought..The same Marcus who vanished after he jumped from the roof.
Professor Jules was also shocked. He knew Marcus very well, he was always bright and attentive during his classes. But how’d he change like that??. That once short, Gaunt boy and Now this??.
The Questions kept on running inside their mind and Marcus kept on pushing the Door agape.
Marcus saw Gabriel standing on the elevated platform, which was usually where Teachers stood whilst they took classes.
Gabriel was introducing himself and how he was doing presently when Marcus entered.
He let the Door close behind him and Inhaled the fresh furniture smell inside. They Changed the desks and benches. Marcus nodded, impressed at how neat and bright the final year class was.
Everyone, including Gabriel looked at him in surprise. Marcus was sure that they were thinking that he accidently barged in unknowingly.
But he smiled when he caught some girls blushing at him. He saw her too. Alisha..ALISHA ELEANOR, blushing at him and drooling over his looks.
Marcus kept on smiling as he stepped on to the Elevated platform and stood beside Gabriel. Gabriel was annoyed but he still was curious about the man beside him.
Marcus shot a glance over to Gabriel and them fixed them on Alisha.
“I’m Ma…”
*BANG*
The door exploded open as Miss Sylvie rushed in. All of them except Marcus looked at her.
“Quick students!!! Rush to the Gym..”
….
..
“WE HAVE AN INTRUDER!!”
She said after a pause of hesitation.
Marcus Glared outside the window as his eyes narrowed at a Dark Figure pacing towards the Academy. He had no doubt when that same strange smell made it’s way towards his nose.
“It’s a God”
