After cheking the attendance she stood up and went to the middle of the room. Then she told everyone to focus their attention to her while she discuss about the Philipinnes history.

sometimes she would paused for a while and asked them about what they knew about the Philippines history and she noticed that not many are interesred.

As the discussion went deeper she noticed that only three student remained interested. One of them was Fyro, ofcourse! she knew about this Fyro. She knew that this boy was not smart. Everytime she asked a question, he would always raised his right hand but she paid no attention to him because she knew that his answer would be wrong, so there was no point in letting him answer. It would be a waste of time if she let him answer when all of it were wrong.

But something unexpected happened. When she paused to asked a question, this time nobody raise their hand except for Fyro. So mrs. Ligaya had no choice but to called him.

' Oh! so finally, this stupid woman came to me. Hmmmn I will show everyone that my knowledge is beyond their comprehension.' fyro muttered to himself.

Fyro then looked at them for a while, He noticed that most of his classmates were not paying attention. Some of them looked at him with disdain.

"So, Fyro, it seems like you have an idea about Jose Rizal' whereabouts. Would you be able to share to us about what you know?" Mrs. Ligaya then looked at Fyro with unapproval gaze. She thought that fyro's answer will be wrong. Then she averted her gaze to some of her students and scrutinized them if they were listening or not. But the next thing that happened surprise her. She left her mouth opened in disbelief.

" Well, we all know about Jose Rizal to be our national hero. But do you know about Jose Rizal childhood's life and his education while growing up?" Then he turned his head around looking for someone to answer his question but nobody lifted their hands. He shook his head and continued to explain.

Fyro paused for a while then looked around and found that all of his classmates was seriously listening to him. Their jaws droped in astonishment. Even mrs. Ligaya could not belive what she had heard. She knew Fyro very well that's why she was not giving him her attention. But now she think that she was dreaming. How is this possible? she muttered to herself.

Fyro wanted to continue but she was stopped by mrs. Ligaya because she was trembling already. Fyro answers was seems to be perfect and organized and even precise.

"I didn't know that you have read a lot about Jose Rizal's life. But what I want to emphazise, is about our heroes who fought for our frredom. But still you are very good! every one let's give him 3 and a half claps."

Mrs. ligaya had a joyful expressions. She didn't notice that she was trembling with excitement. She had now a glimmer of hope. A smile appeared in her mouth while glancing on Fyro who currently sitting on his desk with a calm expression. He seems to be very far from the Fyro she knew.

Fyro noticed that mrs. Ligaya was watching him so he looked at her too and he was curious why she was smiling at him. But when they had an eye contact mrs. Ligaya averted her gaze.

Many of the students looked at Fyro with envy, specially Vicenty who wacthed his every action with great enmity. He knew that Fyro will become famous soon inside the campus because of his brain. And he will have nothing to face anymore to Kira. Fyro had surpassed him in talents and acdemic. While he was thinking about his losses he released a sigh of hoplessness but Fyro just sneered at him.

Fyro knew about everything that was happening. He just simply smiled because he planed of all this. He wanted the whole world to notice that he was not only capable but also knowledgeable. Thus, for that reason he would attract strongest human opponent. And soon all of his plans will be little by little accomplish.
