Class Labores

2 days after the fateful dungeon incident, the academy shut down it's tradition of making randomized surprise exams, which led to a power and experience difference for first-years and second-years.

Me? Nothing really was out of place other than that incident, which I got admitted to a peculiar class.

Starter Class Labores.

Starter was referred to first-year students, which Labores was it's name. To simplify, I was in year 1 class 2.

It is the center of the Destruction Attempt Arc.

This class was where all of the novel's heroes, villains, rivals, and supporting characters reside. It's a chaotic class which one event happens after another, and the very class that decides this world's fate.

Many cliques and schemes will happen, resulting in chaoticness. As a stundent of this class, I would be swept way as well, even if I want it or not.

[7:33 AM]

I got up and trudged to my bathroom, getting ready for school, and wearing the academy's uniform. I walk outside the house, seeing the breathtaking and picturesque view of the tremendous-sized floating island of Synthesia.

I walk on the shiny asphalt roads, accompanied by futuristic street lights powered by magic. Setting my eyes upon the scenery of the giant academy, and meeting Kim Young-Gi.

"Hey, Park-ssi! Morning!"

"Good morning, Kim-ssi."

After a short greeting abruptly came to and end, I went inside the academy after a few security checks. Standing before the door that leads to my very class, I lifted my hands upwards and held the doorknob with trembling hands, fidgeted for a little while until I finally mustered up all of the courage to open the door.

The class's interior was glossy; with no sign of dust and spider webs accompanied by three long desks cascading upwards.

I stood there, looking at familiar faces as my face was sweating profusely.

Where should I sit?

I looked around the large classroom and found an empty seat in the desk in the last row located at the middle column.

Thank God that none of the main characters noticed me.

I sit on the empty seat, which then I thought.

I have to spend years with these kids? As a character I barely even know as well...

But, my thoughts were interrupted when a manly shout echoed throughout the room.

"Silence!"

A singular manly voice made the entire murmur and talking disappeared, and an eerily loud silence filled the classroom. Which then, the man had a few announcements before starting introductions.

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kwan Si-U. Rank 10231. I'll be your homeroom teacher starting today."

Once again, murmurs start to arise.

"No way, he's within the ten thousandth rank out of billions?"

"He must be really powerful."

I look to my left and right, which numerous people had the same thought process. I then close my eyes for a little while, and opened my eyes wide. My left eye was surrounded by a blue aura, and seeing status windows of the 100 people in class Labores as clear as day.

Nice. I can see and remember everything clearly. Theory classes should be no problem, and I only need to focus on physical and magical prowess.

My chance of surviving has increased!

The rest of the class hours consisted of physical classes, theory classes, and a bit of sparring.

Sparring Class - 4:00 PM

Student's weapons while sparring is not yet final. Since the material used for weapons was wood, it is blunt. As throughout the weeks and months, students have to find which weapon they are talented the most.

Me? I'll just stick with a short-dagger. Because every time I walk to my home in the familiar benighted street, 60 percent of the time, I get ambushed by one or three thieves. Which for self-defense, I naturally developed skills for a dagger to protect myself at least.

Random people will be paired by two, and for 1 hour straight, they will fight. The most scores for each period will receive five extra points for theory class.

My fighting partner- was another extra. A boy named Ji Myeong. His status window was average, weapon was a wooden spear.

"Student Ji Myeong and Park Jinsung, spar!"

Both put strength in their legs as they sprint, closing distance between them. Which Ji strikes first by thrusting his spear, Park blocks Ji's thrust and counters with an attempt to stab in Ji's abdomen.

It successfully hit, which Park followed up by transferring his dagger from his right hand to left hand, and accurately throws the dagger with all his might, on Ji's chest.

Ji was knocked out unconcious, which declared me as the winner. Downside is, I received unwanted attention from this. Not like I care. 

Nothing was unusual, and nothing has been off to the story lately, other than how I garnered attention.

Class hours ends in a flash, and I find myself walking back to my house.

In the house, I greeted my sister instinctively, and hopped back on my bed.

I don't even know how my day went.

I slowly close my eyes after physical and mental fatigued, and once more woke up to the morning sunshine.

After a few usual preparations, I unconsciously found myself in the academy.

Which on the left corner on my eye, saw a huge bus which opened it's gates to the academy.

Huh? What is that?

Unexpected memories flow into my mind once again.

It was called a Synthesia Bus. Every 10 minutes or so, it picks up students from the academy for free.

Really, this world really is fixing plot holes from the original game.

But this time, Kim Young-Gi didn't appear today.

What happened to him? Never mind that... I should focus on myself. I'm low on physical prowess.

"Class Labores!"

Kwan Si-U's voice once again fills the room with silence, only to mention a big announcement that an important event will happen.

"The entire school will spar with other students in other schools. It's compulsory, so train hard!"

Just then, the loud silence broke, and talking became present.

"Whaaaat?"

"No way, we have to fight other schools?"

"Is there a reward?"

Finally, the first main arc has reached.

Destruction Attempt Arc

At the sparring of students from other schools, the competition was announced to be cancelled, due to an occuring intruding, the night sky was filled with a purple cloud, which then rains poisonous acid.

The intruder, was a fellow buddy from none other than "Stab Happy", Poisonous Witch, Andromeda.

Specifically, around 8 people that were related to Stab Happy contributed to this incident. But if I try to mention all, it would waste time for this novel's chapter.

The purpose was to take revenge on who killed Stab Happy, by killing students from the very academy that killed him, and tried to destroy the entire academy during the plot.

But it fails miserably until Kim Si-woo awakens while his powers were at rock bottom, and manages to use the goddess Astraea's power, holiness.

Which then Andromeda gets brutally disintegrated by the attack Kim Si-woo sent to her, Holy Shower.

Is the game's story direction going to flow the same? Or my actions will cause a butterfly effect to the story and turns things around?

"This will be fun, if me, a loser, could really change the direction of the storyline." I say, with a shining blue aura in my left eye.
