Back to School

The last memory of Gray before he died was the war between the Gods and Demons.

On that cruel battlefield, many humans died. And Gray, who was in the middle of the battlefield, was killed when he was suddenly ganged up by a group of demon generals.

After Gray was killed, he suddenly woke up in the sea of darkness.

As he opened his eyes, he immediately look around him, all he could see was nothing but a sea of darkness.

Gray tried to move his body, but he couldn't, his body was just floating in the darkness.

As he floated in the sea of darkness, he saw a stream of white light, which made his body to automatically float into it.

That was then, he returned to this day 10 years from the past, which is the day of talent awakening day.

Although 10 years may have passed, Gray could still remembered this day clearly.

The talent he had awakened was one of the most broken D-grade talent, Slight Passive Enhancement.

The outcome was an additional 5% passive enhancement.

This talent may be drowned by many in the early stages, but once you are in the late stages of the game this talent will give a large boost.

While everyone mocked him for his talent, Gray was not disheartened by this, instead he was filled with determination and he persevere in the early stages.

Because of that, he was one of the top 100 rankers in his previous life.

Thinking of his past life, Gray sighed.

He never thought that he was given a chance to live again.

Ring, ring, ring...

Ring, ring, ring...

Ring, ring, ring...

The phone on the bedside table rang, breaking him out of his thought.

Ring, ring, ring...

As he pick his phone up, he saw that it was his headteacher calling him, he knew that his teacher was urging him to go to school and awaken his talent.

After all, the game Limitless was now of great importance to everyone, it could even affect one's life.

Every students would be very enthusiastic, excited and eager on this day. No one would show up late.

However, Gray was still in disbelief of what happened to him.

Gray sat on his bed while holding his phone in a daze.

Ring, ring, ring...

However, phone calls sounded one after another.

So he finally answer the call.

"Hello, Teacher Peter"

"Gray I don't want to waste my energy on you today. Come to school immediately. Now!"

"I'm sorry teacher, I just woke up"

Gray excused shamelessly.

"..."

The person on the other end of the phone remained silent for a long time before he finnaly said.

"Stop making excuses, you know today is the talent awakening day. And Gray, I understand how you feel right now. You might be very nervous. After all, this awakening will determine the rest of your life."

"However, how can you know the result without even trying?"

After hearing this, Gray muttered in his heart,

'I already know the result.'

Nevertheless, he did not say it on the phone. After all, he was regressed back 10 years from the past. No one would believe him even if he said it out loud.

Hearing no reponse from his student, the teacher sighed and said.

"No matter what, I hope you can come to school and face your life."

"After all, only you can walk your own path."

The phone hung up and silence descended in the room.

For a few second, Gray thought to himself,

'Well, I just got a life lesson out of nowhere there.'

Gray stood up looking at the clock, as soon as he look at the time he knew he was late.

'Shoot, I'm late!'

'So that's why teacher sounded so agitated!'

He quickly dressed up and left his apartment.

Gray, who was an orphan, had to live in the edge of the city.

Even his daily source of income was provided by the federal government.

If he did not participate in the School's talent awakening test, then the federal government would probably stop providing subsidies to Gray.

It took him one whole hour to reach his school by the bus.

On the way, Peter even called Gray to urge him. Once he learned that Gray already boarded the bus, he said nothing more.

As a teacher, Peter was aware of Gray's financial situation.

When Gray arrive at the classroom, all his classmates had finished the test.

However, most of them did not notice Gray.

Some of them are secretly sad as their awakened talent was mediocre.

On the other hand, those who awakened good talent were excited for their bright future.

Under such circumstances, who would care about such an insignificant classmate?

Of course, there are exception to everything.

"Isn't this Gray? Did you just wake up?"

"Are you so afraid of awakening your trash talent, that you're hiding and crying under the blanket?"

A wave of words with a thick mocking tone sounded.

Gray raised his eyes slightly and glance at the other party. It was his classmate, Blair.

Blair was born into a relatively wealthy family.

He often looked down on the other students because of his family's wealth.

Everyone was angry, but no one was brave enough to fight back.

However, in the past, when face with such a situation, Teacher Peter would always step in to stop Blair and teach him a few lesson.

After all, a teacher who could teach Limitless subjects in school were relatively respected in society, so Blair usually did not dare talk back to Peter.

Nonetheless, today, when Blair bullied his classmates, Peter chose to remain silent.

The reason was very simple, Gray, who had regressed back 10 years, was also very aware of it.

It was because Blair, a child from a rich family, had awakened his A-grade talent!
