I'm hungry, can you show me the cafeteria?(I)

"Can you accompany me to the classroom? I'm lost,"

Lilith tilted her head. She thought she heard the wrong thing, but based on the male's expression, it seemed very true. "HAH?!!!!"

A smack landed on Liechael's back as he received the question. "What the heck is happening with you today?" The girl tapped his forehead. "Are you sick?!" Then she saw the small scar on Liechael's side forehead. The aftermath of his attentiveness. Lilith remembered how the male complained to her that day when he fell from the branch of the tree just by saving a cat.

"Geez! Really troublesome." Lilith couldn't do a single thing, but brushed her face. She pressed her wrist, and then a small hologram showed up. The speaking machine from it stated the time. As expected from the Aphelion group, such a high-tech watch. Her brows furrowed. 30 minutes.

"Follow me," she trudged forward with the male following her behind.

Liechael was really about to go, but then he remembered that they have the same blue uniforms. Since he got the time to read a little information from the school manual in the car, he learned that the uniform colors are by school years. Lilith and he are definitely classmates. That's why he stopped and waited outside the council office.

It took them minutes to reach the said room. The glass door automatically slides upon scanning their school I.Ds. Yes, you can't enter without an I.D.

The cold air condition welcomed Liechael's skin. It delivered some shivers to him in the meantime. But what caught his attention was the gazes piercing him the moment he entered the door. It's not death glares, but the girls' eyes glinting with hearts. Some of them even tried to stop themselves from screaming. Who wouldn't if the handsome son of the Ross Clan is your classmate?

If this body was used to being the center of attraction, well, it's the opposite for the 24-year-old Liechael. It's not that he hated attention, he just preferred staying low. He lowered his head and went straight to his seat, third row on the right side.

As he took a seat, he soon realized that the desk can be divided by two. One for the laptop and one for the books and taking notes. Just how rich his family is to build this kind of school? The room was also big and comfortable compared to an ordinary classroom. Each desk was lifted a half meter like a stair so that everyone, including the students on the back, could see the big LCD screen on the front.

Liechael lowered his head more after noticing some gazes thrown towards him. He just hopes that their professor will arrive soon. He can't rely everything on Lilith, since the girl also has her own circle of friends on his left side. If he wanted to learn more from this body, he needed to explore it himself. He wasn't used to socializing for almost a month. Will he be okay? Will everything open up again to him?

He's not sure, but he wanted to try.

***

The lesson ended, and the students seemed very focused on their professor discussing in front. The students here are not only rich but also well mannered. He's at class A after all, the most top section of his year.

As the information he knew about E University increased, he became even more amazed at their teaching system. Though he also studied at prestigious schools before, but not like this one. Just what timeline is he in?

Liechael jolted after closing his laptop. Behind it, in front of his desk, he saw another guy show up so suddenly. He's wearing the same uniform as him, but the two buttons under his neck are untucked and his necktie is also loose. Since it was their lunchtime, he didn't give him enough attention.

Liechael is hungry, but the guy is persistent. "Hey, Chael!" He called out. "Why didn't you call me yesterday? I thought we were going to join the SG Gaming tournament?" There was a bit of hesitation in his tone.

'SG Gaming tournament?' Liechael thought.

So the Liechael here is a gamer, confirmed. What games he's playing, though? Is it on a PC? Mobile? Playstation? Or maybe on some high-tech devices. Who knows? He's too hungry to think about it. He is just going to ask him later.

"Do you want me to reschedule our slots? I can still ask them to reserve one for us," the guy beamed. "What do you think? Give me a proper answer, Chael," he snorted.

Hearing his nickname again made him realize that this must be another close friend of the body he's into. He paused after putting his laptop in his bag.

Liechael's head quickly lifted and scanned the guy. Greyish brown down hair above his upturned black eyes, thick but short lashes. Medium tanned skin and a high bridge nose. In short, a good-looking guy. From his looks, he's suited to be the class escort. Girls will definitely flock around him.

Luckily, Liechael's eyes went down to the guy's I.D, who's twirling it with his fingers. He got the chance to read the name—Shaun.

"Shaun?"

The other guy stopped playing with his school I.D. "Yes?" he replied. He's quite disappointed after seeing the male's cold reaction. Usually, the Liechael he knew will slam his hands on the desk and talk nonstop about the tournament. He also normally suggests reserving a slot for them, so why did he turn out to be like this?

Also, he never forgets to call Shaun when there's an upcoming game tournament, but yesterday, he forgot it. Thinking such things made him scratch the back of his head. 'What happened to him? He's usually very talkative when the topic was all about games'

Meanwhile, Liechael was right, Shaun was indeed the right name. But instead of answering his question and stating his reasons why he forgot to call the guy about the tournament, his mind threw him a different thought. He looked at the latter and said, "I'm hungry, can you show me the cafeteria?"
