DBS Chapter 20
It had been a week since Kaden arrived at the Rose Faction Academy. The campus buzzed with activity, students constantly bustling between classes, training sessions, and other faction duties. Yet, for Kaden, the days felt slow, like a blur of monotony punctuated only by the occasional interesting moment, like the martial art class.
Now, he sat at the back of the class, his chin resting lazily on his hand as he stared out the window. The sun filtered through the glass, casting a golden hue over the neatly arranged desks and rows of students diligently taking notes. Kaden's thoughts were elsewhere-- the mystery surrounding his abilities and how to increase his stats.
At the front of the class, Mr. Duke, the scrawny, balding teacher, droned on about equations and problem-solving methods with exaggerated fervor. His high-pitched voice grated on Kaden's ears, but the other students seemed riveted, nodding along and scribbling notes.
