Maths Is Torture

Time: 7:48 AM

Classes were about to start in twelve minutes. After changing my clothes and wearing the blue-coloured uniform of the academy, I exited the dorms and walked towards the classroom.

Upon entering the classroom, I found that every student was focusing on me, they were looking at me with jealousy and, admiration. ? wait, what did I do now?

I occupied the last seat in the first row where a cadet was already sitting on one side of the desk.

"Did something happen?", I asked him as I seated next to him.

"You don't know?", he asked.

"Well if I knew, I wouldn't be asking you", I replied.

"You used something sought of teleportation at that time, didn't you?", he asked.

"If you're talking about when we were in the training session yesterday, then yes", I replied.

"You're pretty casual about it", he said as he leaned towards me and whispered, "It's a super rare ability!"

"Is that so?"

"Yes, and now every professor and cadet belonging to affluent background know about that and has eyes on you!", he said and added, "It's so rare, that am sure you'll be getting many marriage proposals for those families to get you on their side"

"And why the fuck are you sitting beside me!!!!", he exclaimed.

"....", I stayed quiet in response to his remarks.

While everyone was whispering about me, I noticed the main characters staying quiet and rank 3 Alex spencer looking at me with hostility.

'Aghh!, I didn't want to kill a main character yet, don't make me do it!', I thought.

In the meantime, our homeroom teacher (Mun-Hee) entered the class. She stood on the podium in front of the whiteboard, followed her routine of banging the book on the teacher's desk and continued with her attendance.

After attendance, she picked up a black marker from the stand beside the whiteboard and stepped forward on the podium.

"Today, we're going to start with the theory part", she said and stated, "Take out your rough registers and mathematics book on the desk"

As she said, everyone accessed their storage rings and took out the required stationary.

"We'll be starting from the first chapter, 'Relations and functions'", she said and continued, "Recall that the notion of relations and functions, domain, co-domain and range have been introduced in Class XI along with different types of specific real-valued functions and their graphs. The concept of the term 'relation' in mathematics has been drawn from the meaning of relationships in the English language, according to which two objects or quantities are related if there is a recognisable connection or link between the two objects or quantities. Let A be the set of students of Class XII of a school and B be the set of students of Class XI of the same school.

Then some of the examples of relations from A to B are (i) {(a, b) ∈ A × B: a is the brother of b}, (ii) {(a, b) ∈ A × B: a is the sister of b}, (iii) {(a, b) ∈ A × B: age of a is greater than the age of b}, (iv) {(a, b) ∈ A × B: total marks obtained by an in the final examination is less than the total marks obtained by b in the final examination}, (v) {(a, b) ∈ A × B: life in the same locality as b}. However, abstracting from this, we define mathematically a relation R from A to B as an arbitrary subset of A × B. If (a, b) ∈ R, we say that a is related to b under the relation R and we write as an R b. In general, (a, b) ∈ R, we do not bother whether there is a recognisable connection or link between a and b. As seen in Class XI, functions are special kinds of relations....."

'...., What is she on about,....I should've focused on maths too'

I've been fiddling with my notebook for the past two hours and I didn't get shit.

This pure raw torture, uh- I mean class, continued for the next two hours. There was no training session today, as those are held on Mon., Wed., Fri., Sat. and Sunday. (today's day is Tuesday in the novel)

**Tring**

Finally, the bell for dispersal rang, I exited the room along with rest of the cadets and saw Stella approaching me.

Since I didn't have time to deal with her now, I disappeared in the crowd and went towards the infirmary where Ruby was.

[A/N: Am attending my class right now guys, and I got a call from my mom that I'll have to stay at my brother's house since no one will be at home. So the first thing I did was type this chapter on my laptop just to post it.... cause I won't be able to upload it tonight.

If you feel this chapter is short... I apologise for my inconvenience.]
