Arcana Mob

The next day, Cade and the others were gathered in the University hall.

Sitting in one of the furthest seats today, an odd atmosphere enveloped the hall.

Many different emotions were displayed on the face of some of the students present.

Some of the students were wary, some were excited, and some were nervous...however, if there was one thing that was noticeable, it was that everyone was acting strange.

The most notable thing that could be observed was the fact that from the front to the back, almost everyone was staring at the entrance of the hall with extra apprehension.

As if an enemy was about to come through that door and fight them.

But it couldn't be helped. Because Cade also knew where this intensity was coming from.

Today was the day that the exchange students from the five great universities were going to arrive...

' *Cough* attention, please!'

Standing in the middle of the hall, pretending to be unbothered by the strange atmosphere shrouding the classroom, the principal coughed as he tried to get everyone's attention.

"As most of you already know, today we will be having exchange students coming into our university. So I would like for you all to be on your best behavior."

Pausing and looking at the students in the hall, The principal's tone became firmer.

"But I need to remind you. Best behavior doesn't mean that our dignity could be trampled. If you feel they are too much and were excessive in their behavior, feel free to fight back. Because remember, no matter who you are, Orion University is your home, and we will always get your back!"

"Oooh!!!!"

The principal's quick speech was quickly greeted with a huge cheer from the audience.

The speech was enough to get rid of the anxiousness of the students, and rather, it increased the feeling of belongingness toward the university.

However, Cade, who was from the earth, felt something amiss here.

' Why do I feel like this atmosphere would soon turn into a School Brawl...'

'.....'

After a while, finished with what he wanted to say, the principal nodded at the reaction of the students and began to open his tab.

"Alright, enough with that. I will now introduce the exchange students and supervisors from the other four Great universities. This year, our Orion University had the privilege of holding the intercultural exchange festival, so we should greet them with hospitality."

The principal smiled but based on the current atmosphere. Cade felt like the correct word should be Hostility and not hospitality.

Everyone's eyes were once again returned to the door to the hall room.

And one by one, the exchange students and their Supervisors came.

Squinting his eyes, a frown involuntarily appeared on Cade's face.

Because from one of the schools, the faces of the people that came here were completely different from what he remembered.

A relatively handsome boy with black hair and yellow pupils smiled amiably. He looks pretty approachable, but to be honest. He was the one that gave Cade the eeriest feeling among the students. And for some reason, Cade could see a trace of familiarity on his face.

'...if I didn't remember wrongly, there should be nothing too big happening in this event except the protagonist showing his power and getting closer to the heroines. But..

At least, that was what was supposed to happen in the game.

However, Cade was no longer sure about this outcome. If the student was already giving Cade a bad feeling, then the man behind him was an entirely different case.

It might just be an illusion, but the feeling that Cade could feel from his was endless bloodlust. It was like he was one that had dyed his hand red with human blood.

Did the protagonist get stronger too fast, make the situation worsen? That was the question in his mind.

...He really didn't know. However, what he did know was that this exchange program might not be as easy as he thought.

He already acknowledged the fact that things were going to change and that the story was no longer going the way that it was before...but still, it felt somewhat odd.

However, guess could only be guesses...

"...and last but not least, From the Southern Cross academy, Supervisor Irvin and Sadao. Please, everyone give your applause!"

Snapping him out of his thoughts, hearing the name said by the principal, Cade lowered his head and grabbed his hair as he couldn't help but curse.

Now he remembered why he found those two faces familiar.

'Are you kidding me...?'

Irvin? Was this Irvin the Red Blood? One of the late-game antagonists?

And the other one was Sadao?

He was one of the major antagonists in the game, so why would he appear this early?

Cade knew that things had changed, but letting the big shots appear this early in the game, would the game-make really like to make it game over for him?

He had not even finished his matter with Elicia yet. And now, two other villains were about to come?

Cade could only sigh helplessly. He knew trouble was waiting for them at this academy.

. . . . . .

The next day, the sun slowly rose from the horizon, and the Capital City, more specifically, Orion University, basked in the warmth of the sun.

Cade stood in, enjoying the warmth that came from the sun. He glanced to his right, where a beautiful young girl stood.

Currently, Elicia and Cade were waiting at the northern entrance of the university.

According to Miss Elizabeth's instructions, they were tasked here to greet the exchange student.

His job was to greet them and bring them around the university to familiarize themselves with the place.

But of course, the ones that Cade would bring with him would not be Irvin and Sadao.

They were left for Aurum to deal with.

He would only be bringing two unimportant characters around, and it should not be a hard task.

But sometimes, even mobs had their own trouble.

Not long after the supposed to-be supervisor and student came, Cade could feel today would not be as peaceful as he wanted.

Because just the first time when the student met Elicia, the first sentence he said was:

" Girl, a pretty one like you should not be here. How about coming to our university, and I'll teach you the true meaning of love?"
