Chapter 53 - Meet the new class

Two days later.

Zhu Kang sat up when the alarm rang loudly. 'Today is the day...'

The day he was going to attend the dreaded hero classes. Taking a deep breath, he first did some yoga to calm his turbulent mood.

Even if he tried to put it off, it was only going to make it much worse.

'I'll get this training over with. Get my certificate of Clearance and go out into the normal human society. Maybe I can do a 9 to 5 job somewhere.... my degree. Well, I might have to finish it online.'

He thought while stretching his legs and his back muscles.

"You're awfully chirpy today," a dull tone whispered next to him.

"Well, unlike someone I have a job to do," he mumbled softly.

The doctor pulled off the privacy screen with a bored look on his face. "I regret saving your life,"

Since Aaron was so busy with work he could not accompany him. This man was appointed by him to take care of his heath.

All he ever does is eat, sleep and repeat. He did not even go to the bathroom that often.

"Oh thank you mister nameless doctor. I am forever in your debt. Is that what you expect? Not going to tell you. I begged you to give me a bad diagnosis so that I can leave here, but no, you did not. I'm still pissed," he pouted.

It was his secondary plan. When Aaron mentioned that he had hyperthermia he had the brilliant plan to fake a mortal illness and get out of here.

There was a high chance that they would move him to a bigger hospital. He planned on escaping then.

But the darn boring doctor did not give in to his begging.

"It's malpractice kid. I could lose my only job," he yawed. "And I have a name. It's Johan. It's been two days yet you never had the courtesy to introduce yourself." He mumbled, scratching his fuzzy black hair.

He stood up and flung his sheets dusting off any specks of dust and folded them neatly. "Name's Zhu Kang, and I don't like your honesty. For once you could have lied and saved me from this agony,"

"You're acting like a brat," the man chuckled. "Hey, how did you know Aaron Zain? He's a big shot here. I guess you can ride his coattails."

Kang grimaced. "I don't know him, don't bring that up. I have no wish to improve my social standing in this place. all I want is out," he patted the folded sheets down.

Aaron came through the door right then with an awkward look on his face. "I.. I got your training gear.."

"Ah looks like he heard," Johan chuckled happily.

Kang internally screamed at himself for his mishap. He took it for him with a small smile. "Sorry that you heard something unpleasant..... i didn't mean it that way.."

"It's okay, we are strangers. But... I would like to become closer to you," he smiled softly.

Zhu Kang froze. "Y-yeah we can be close.... friends..."

Aarons' smile dimmed a bit. "Yeah.... get dressed. Your class starts at eight. I'll drop you there,"

"You successfully shot him down. Smooth man, very smooth." Johan happily chuckled before leaving the room. "You two best friends deserve some privacy,'

Kang was so tempted to hit the back of his shaggy head. Gritting his teeth he held back his impulses. "Come in," he invited Aaron in.

"so.... how are you feeling?" he awkwardly sat on the bed.

"I'm good. You?"

Kang internally cussed himself. 'you? What kind of question is that? why did I even say that? Stupid brain, please work sometimes. I need you a lot...'

Biting his bottom lip, he took out the training clothes from him. It was made up of thick unknown fabric. It was a one-piece suit that looked more like a scuba suit.

It looked good, but the color was unflattering grey...

'It's so dull...'

As soon as he touched the fabric, the color changed to a vibrant red.

"Whoa, what the..."

"The training suit has temperature control functions. It can read and regulate your temperature. Our super suits are all made of that same material." Aaron cleared his throat loudly.

Taking his shirt off, Kang glanced back. "Are you waiting for a show? I don't feel like shining my butt at your face"

"n-no...'

"Then why are you still looking? At least turn back.." Kang rolled his eyes.

Aaron stammered for a long time and whispered. "It's… payback. You saw my naked body now I can see yours,"

Zhu Kang peered at him, eyes narrowed. 'so he thought I saw him naked? No wonder he has been acting so brazen...'

The hero's face was a slight shade of pink. "I never saw you naked."

"At the hotel.. we did that... so..."

Kang finally faced him. 'Does he not remember? Or does he think wanking is sex? Aw poor kid. He is old but does not even know the difference.'

"We did not do anything at the hotel,"

Aaron blinked innocently. "That's not possibly.. I.. there was.. jizz..."

"You just wanked me and snored off like a piggy. I didn't even get the chance to see you naked. " Kang chuckled.

"I.. I..." Aaron had the most mortified look on his face. His cheeks turned red and his ears were hot pink.

"That's fine, it was just rubbing off. It's not that serious. Stop having that mortified look on your face,"

The blond man touched his own cheeks slightly. "do I look mortified?'

"Yeah, you look like you're constipated. Flushed from ear to ear,"

Aaron shot up. "I.. I'll wait out... get dressed..."

He literally ran out of the room and closed the door.

Kang chuckled out loud. 'Teasing him is super fun. Who knows, I don't think I will have any other hobby other than this....'

He shimmed into the thin legs of the pants and pulled up the top. The zipper was upfront. He easily zipped it in.

The suit turned a bright shade of red.

A sudden warmth flushed into his skin.

Kang gasped. "Oh god... this is heavenly." He touched the fabric once more. The outside of it was still cool to touch but the inside was like a warm furnace. 'don't villains have technology like this?'

The first time he went out on a heist with his brother, he was given a standard spandex suit.

It did not have cool features like this one.

'And it's just a training suit. Not even super sit. Wider how awesome that is...'

Kang put a stop to that thought immediately. 'I can't be pulled in my technologies. I'm going to stick by Gwyn's side and be a good little villain.'

Taking a deep breath, he walked to the door.

Aaron stood outside, patting his cheeks.

"Jeez you made it even redder," he mumbled with a frown. "hey you don't have to take that so seriously. I'm telling you it was just a fling. You don't have to be so mortified by it."

Aaron pouted even more. His pink cheeks turned pale in just a second. "Oh..I see...let's get going then,

Obediently, Kang followed after him.

They walked through long corridors. There was the normal classroom and there were also training rooms. The normal classroom just looked like a high school setting with tables and benches.

As he passed by he glanced in.

Few students looked out in awe. All of their gazes were fixed on Mister Aaron Zain.

Kang peered at his back. 'He's fit, handsome, and is very good financially. No wonder the girl's eyes shimmer. He is the perfect husband material...'

They passed by a training hall where Altren was training with a group of people. No, he was not training.

Altren was just standing in a corner looking down on the others like a hawk.

He walked over to the door.

"Kang?" Aaron gestured for him to follow.

"Isn't this my class?"

"No, you're a novice. You need to learn from the start," he briskly walked over to a room and knocked on the door.

"Come in," a man's voice came from inside.

There was also a subtle sound of chatter coming from in there.

Kang peered in curiously at his new class.

One look and he was too stunned to speak.

"This will be your new class and this is your teacher, mister Gritchen. He's a seasoned trainer and a hero. He can help you out..."

Kang still peered at the class. "You're joking right?" he pointed to the little six-year-old kids peering back at him. "Surely we are in the wrong room..."

Aaron weirdly looked at him. "This is your class."

'Say what?! I'm... going to study with six-year-olds!'
