Hazel sat down on her chair, pulling it a little closer to the table she pushed her notebook and book towards Alexander.
"See this question that you solved yesterday. Your answer is correct but how did you arrive here at this formula?" She pointed at her book then explained her situation to him.
Alexander who just finished his acupuncture therapy and was looking handsome also pulled his chair closer to the table then saw the question mentioned by Hazel.
Upon looking at the question, Alexander frowned and thought,
''Isn''t this simple Heisenberg Equation?''
When I flipped through the memories I found that this world is technologically less advanced than my world. Is it possible that they don''t even know Heisenberg Equation?!
Nah! That''s not possible!
He hastily grabbed the book and flipped some pages rashly as if he was finding a treasure map. He took about 5 minutes to flip the pages back and forth and then stopped at a page. He dipped his head deeper then squinted his eyes and scanned the text from top to bottom.
After about another 5 minutes, he picked up a pencil, highlighted a segment on the book and passed it back.
This book contains the Heisenberg Equation, but only on a small part, it was too small to notice. That''s why it was neglected by a genius student like Hazel.
Hazel picked up the book and looked at the text deeply and started to comprehend it and related it with the solution. The more she looked at it, the more she was shocked.
''Why didn''t I realized this?!''This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
''This guy¡ is he a real genius?''
She put down the book and was about to say something but she saw that Alexander was already engrossed in reading.
This time there was a bit of admiration in her eyes. She looked at the handsome face in front of her who was uninterested in everything and thought,
'' He really doesn''t admire my beauty? Is he faking it? ''
Alexander on the other side of the table was getting excited by reading more of the book in his hand. It was a book on traditional Chinese medicine. He was getting information on different kinds of diseases and their medicine.
At about 3 pm he lifted his head up and let out a sigh. He completed the entire course of Chinese medicine books in about 3 hours. That was a total of 5 books! Each of them was classic in the field. This speed is simply monstrous.
I am already near the peak in Chinese medicine!
Up until now, he didn''t notice that Hazel was staring at him with a shocked expression. She was not able to comprehend this monstrous speed, she witnessed with her own eyes.
'' I don''t believe he was able to learn even 10%, from those books, he was reading like crazy! ''
Alexander like yesterday, took out a cup of noodles and poured some hot water into it and then started eating it silently. He didn''t care if a girl was staring at him and just fed himself his fill.
After finishing his fill, he started reading again but this time it was Indian traditional medicine, Ayurveda! Reading this was of the same difficulty level as of Chinese medicine as he himself didn''t belong to any of the factions, so both of them were new to him!
He kept reading like a scanner scanning through the books and by 7 pm, that is, in just four hours he completed another 5 books based on totally new content of Ayurveda.
But after gaining all this information, there was an idea in his brain! According to what he read and his guts, he came up with a formula to strengthen his body. This herbal formula that he generated in his mind was highly potent! This thing can mutate DNA in his body as well as make him about 10 times stronger than his current body.
But with such potency, comes higher risks and pains. But, so what? It''s not that I will not die now! I can die anytime now with this body!
Therefore he decided to take the risk! He needs himself to be able to protect himself. This was also his biggest regret in his last life. He was too weak to protect himself.
Keeping these thoughts in mind Alexander picked up about 20 books to read and research. From tomorrow the classes resume and he''ll have less time to visit the library and complete his mission.
As he exited the library, a prompt resounded.
[ Total Number of books read until now: 12 ]
Ch 13 | It failed?
Upon reaching his cottage, Alexander kept his books on the table then rushed towards the playground beside his cottage.
He wasn''t going to run again due to failure of the morning but because he wanted to collect something from there.
When he was reading books of Ayurveda and Chinese herbs, this afternoon. He found two herbs that were growing in the tremendous amounts on the playground! These herbs were like immortal herbs for him. And also since he observed the weeds for a while in the morning, hence he figured out they were 50-year-old herbs.
They were literally treasures for him!
He rushed towards the field with high speed and he himself didn''t notice that he literally ran for about 250m without any panting and with only some minor sweating. This was the result of his acupuncture therapy. Due to the rush of blood during therapy, the dregs in his blood vessels were cleaned up, thus giving him better oxygen supply throughout the body.
When he reached the playground, he turned on the flashlight to observe the weeds carefully, since the playground was totally dark.
He quickly found the two herbs he required. The ''green jade flowers'' and ''yellow serpent vine''. Since he was going to concentrate the medicine because he wanted to make it 50x stronger, he collected a lot of them.
He reached his cottage again after collecting them and then closed the door. Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.
He switched on his heater and kept a boiling pan on it which was filled with water. Then he left this to boil.
The recipe for this minor medicine is simple and this medicine will act as a foundation for his risk-taking medicine.
By the time water was left to boil, he chopped several pieces of ''yellow serpent vines'' and soaked them in water, to clean them. He also washed several of the tiny ''green jade flowers'' which will be the first ingredient of the medicine.
When the water was boiling he added those several tiny flowers to the pot, all at once. Slowly the color of the water changed to green. He let the water to boil along with the flowers in it for about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, he read books on several other medicinal techniques, that he brought from the library.
After 45 minutes, most of the water from the pan was evaporated leaving only a green sludgy liquid. Seeing that the situation was good, he swiftly added those chopped vines and the water it was soaked into the pan. The concentrated solution by the addition of water again became fluid.
This time it was left to boil and evaporate for an hour. When the clock struck 9, it was already time for the medicine to be ready. He kept down the book and observed the prepared medicine.
This time it wasn''t semi-solid like the previous one and was quite fluid. He switched off the heater, poured down all the content to glass and added hot water to the glass.
This thing stinks too much! But this is my hard work and key to a better future!
Let''s do this! At most I''ll die!
He didn''t think much after that and directly drank everything!
These '' green jade flowers'' were Chinese herbs that amplify and boost the quality of any accompanying herbs.
The main ingredient was '' yellow serpent vines'', this thing has the property to enlarge the surface area of blood vessels and lungs, thus increasing the capacity and endurance of the human body indirectly.
After 5 minutes of drinking, he didn''t feel anything else!
This is strange? Did my experiment fail?
It can''t be that the experiment failed?!
Ch 14 | Real Effect
[ Wakeup Alert! Time 4 AM! Bonus Mission Starts! ]
When the bonus mission prompt was announced, our hero was still sleeping. Last night he was disappointed after the failure of his experiment! He then went to his study table and read 5 books till midnight to vent his disappointment after which he slept.
As the prompt resounded, Alexander woke up lazily but was more energetic than ever before. Although he only slept for four hours but he wasn''t feeling any kind of fatigue.
He slowly opened his eyes but was shocked to see his surroundings!
His bed, blanket and clothes were totally wet as if they were soaked in a bucket of water. He sweats when he sleeps but never have he sweated that much!
This is incredible!
Is it due to medicine?!
It only made me sweat?! And nothing else?!
He stood up collected all his clothes and sheets and put them together in the laundry tub!
The laundry will be collected by responsible personnel and will be returned after washing. This facility is provided by the academy so that students have more time to spend on their course rather than wasting time on trivial stuff.
He changed into his sportswear and left the cottage, but what he ignored was, a black greasy substance on his clothes and sheets. This might have accumulated overnight.
Upon reaching the playground, Alexander can feel the air and surroundings more clearly. He got near the track and made a decision!
Today also I will push myself to the limits! I have the acupuncture technique for the pain, so let''s push it to death! Cough, Cough .. only till my limit.Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more.
With that determination, he started running at his top speed along the running track.
10m ¡. 50m ¡.. 90m¡...130m... 200m... 300m¡..
Eh?
Something isn''t right!!
I don''t feel any pain or fatigue!!
Is this the true effect of my medicine!!
Upon realizing the truth, Alexander jumped in excitement!!
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
With that, he had already covered 1.5 km in about 20 minutes!
Not only my strength and endurance increased, but my speed increased too!!
He stopped upon reaching the starting point after covering 2 laps of the ground !!
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
2 Laps in 30 minutes!! That''s too great!!
He stood at the entrance and started doing sit-ups...
1.. 5¡ 10¡ 50¡ 100¡.!
He was now panting a bit, but he was too excited. The body which died just because of over-exhaustion is now able to perform these daily exercises!!
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
[1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
Although I am too far even from an average soldier, I think I will achieve the rank of at least a General after my risk experiment. All I need to do now is to collect some ingredients and try it! After that, I''ll be able to protect myself.
Why I am wasting time?
Let''s forget that for now and start exercising again!
After that, Alexander ran 2 more laps and did more than 200 sit-ups continuously before falling.
[1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
¡

.
[1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
After a series of prompts, he had already gained a total of 14 micro gene points.
He applied the acupuncture technique, but this time there wasn''t a sudden increase in blood pressure but a greater volume of blood can be felt by him all over the body.
About 15 minutes later, the pain was all gone and he felt that he can exercise again, but he let it go, as an excess of anything isn''t good apart from collecting knowledge.
While he was on his way to the cottage he heard the voice of the system.
[ I am impressed by your performance today! I really didn''t select the wrong candidate!! Hehehe ]
Hey! Why didn''t this system started with a mechanical voice but started with his characteristics of evil voice directly?!
Hearing his sound Alexander rolled his eyes and didn''t reply.
[ Boy! Starting from the day your mission of reading ends your day will become though for you! Missions will become way tougher and way crueler punishments will be awarded for not passing the missions. Hehehe!! Now let''s go to your classroom ]
Ch 15 | Try my luck
After cleaning up and changing his clothes, Alexander realized that his height has increased a bit after yesterday''s medicine. This medicine is really great! I can give it to David in the future!
He was currently heading towards his classroom for the first time yet not. He was following his usual posture to avoid contact with anyone and was bowing his head down as he didn''t want anyone to make a contact with him.
[ Hey! Kid! Raise your head and puff your chest. You are a future overlord. ]
What do you mean by this? I can''t face too many people.
[ Raise your head! ]
This Overlord System literally roared at Alexander in his usual evil sage voice. ( This wasn''t supposed to be a tone of a system, but our system is slowly turning evil. )
Reluctantly Alexander raised his head and saw that there were very few people around here.
As he was moving towards the classroom he saw more and more people around him but instead of feeling nervous and shy, he was experiencing a rather strange feeling. He didn''t feel anything at all even after facing too many people.
I have always tried to expel my introvert nature but even after many trials, I wasn''t able to. But this body is aiding me.
Great!
He slowly gained this new experience and paced towards the classroom with the determination to get rid of his introvert nature.
As he stepped into his classroom, he felt another strange feeling.This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
Sh*t! Why am I feeling sleepy?!
[ This body''s original owner used to sleep in the classroom. You could have just searched your memories. ]
All the memories related to classrooms are blank!
[ Now if you say this, I can tell, how can it not be blank if he was sleeping? ]
Alexander rolled his eyes and ignored the sh*ty system''s trash talk.
As he was heading towards the backmost seat of the classroom to sit down. He came up with a crazy idea!
To deal with this introvert nature, I''ll sit on the first desk!
He turned about the midway and headed towards the front seat. Even though there were very few students in the classroom now, still they all turned towards Alexander, who was going towards the front of the classroom.
At first, they thought, he''ll probably sit at 4th or 5th desk with his friends, but all of them were amazed when they saw him keeping his backpack on the legendary 1st Bench of the 2nd Column!
The man who was being looked upon by others was relatively calm. He was relaxed and happy at the same time.
I am not getting shy after confronting so many people!
He sat down excitedly!
Since he didn''t want to waste his time and there was still an hour left before the class starts so he took out the book on modern pathology and started reading it!
The actor didn''t have any other intentions but spectators nearly fell down from their seats.
"Sh*t! I must be sleeping right now!"
"Today is the day of doom! Alexander is reading!"
"Either I am crazy or the world is! The impossible happened twice!"
"Hey! I didn''t get drunk this morning, but why am I seeing things! "
A series of whispers and mumbling flooded through the class. Alexander who was famous for not reading and just sleeping was now reading and he arrived for the class an hour before!
Meanwhile, Alexander who was oblivious to the chats about him took out a journal of medicinal herbs and started making an estimate about the money he''ll require for the risk experiment.
As he calculated the prices of the medicine, he found that most expensive of them were already growing for free in the playground and now he only needs about $8000 GD.
But after using his money for food and house cottage rent, he was left with only $5000 GD.
He thought for a while about ideas to gain money.
Should I steal?
But from where?
Should I sell?
But what?
Should I gamble?
But where?
Wait! I can gamble! Didn''t David asked me to go with him to a game center?! I''ll just gamble and earn there!
Let me try my luck!
Ch 16 | Four Waste Kings
Through the door of the classroom, three students entered together. They were all tall and good looking. They carried neither any backpack nor any books. By taking a look at them, one can tell, they were here for fun and nothing else.
The skinniest among them was named Elliott Smith. He didn''t belong to any exceptionally strong family but his family didn''t lack anything for daily upper-class life. His strength was already on par with Generals in the army. He was said to be born with innate strength, a condition of being stronger than your peers of the same age. But he chose medical science because of his girlfriend and also because he''s too lazy for the military and wants to continue his family business.
Next to him, a bit darker but well-built body was Jacob Davis. A strong guy with showy but exceptionally strong muscles. He was from a middle-class family as his father works as an accountant of a politician in the council. He wasn''t able to join military classes because he was only one left in his family with his father, thus his father didn''t allow him to risk his life.
The last guy with glasses was known as ''the advisor'' because of his exceptional talent in-game coordination and strategy making. He was like those military advisors from medieval times. His actual name was Theo Adams. His family was a vassal family of Joseph family of capital. His strength was like a normal human.
Even though these people were all different in different aspects but have one thing in common.
They recognize Alexander as their big brother irrespective of his family status!
And together with Alexander, they were known as ''Four Waste Kings of Medical Course''.This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
Alexander being number one, followed by Elliott, Jacob, and Theo.
As they entered the classroom, like everyone else they were struck by lightning and were devoured by the ocean!
All three of them cursed at the same time,
"Fu*k!"
"Ale¡ Alexander is studying and that too on the first desk of the classroom?!"
They subconsciously punched each other! ( Yeah, they punched because this shock was beyond recovering from a mere pinch! )
How can the king of four waste kings study?!
Confirming that they weren''t dreaming, they rushed towards Alexander, who was studying deeply and was completing his 3rd book.
Elliott kept his own hand on Alexander''s forehead, Jacob stretched Alexander''s cheek downward to enlarge his eyes, and Theo opened Alexander''s mouth and observed.
Alexander who was caught off guard was startled and wasn''t able to resist their assault!
After 2 seconds, all three of them looked at each other nodded and said in a deep voice altogether,
"Everything OK! No signs of being insane!"
Alexander finally understood everything and freed himself and roared at them!
"You are insane!"
After listening to his roar, they nodded once again,
"Confirmed! Not insane"
After listening to them, Alexander was boiling with anger!
They are taking me as insane?!
What did I do to make them think so?!
Seeing Alexander was in a daze, Elliott asked first,
"Brother Alexander, why are you studying?"
Oh! That''s why!
Alexander finally understood! He already created an answer for them yesterday because he knew that they''ll ask him.
He replied in a simple sentence and serious expression, " I have decided to turn over a new leaf!"
Looking at his serious expression, three of them gulped and thought of the same thing!
Big brother is serious! I think he found a girl!
That''s the reason Big Brother left the dorm!
They patted his shoulders at the same time, making him fall from the desk and said,
" We support you anyways! We will sit behind you for help"
And they sat on the desk behind him and started playing with their phones.

[ David Taylor, Role: Vice Leader ]
[ Elliott Smith, Role: Business Manager ]
[ Jacob Davis, Role: Armed Forces Leader ]
[ Theo Adams, Role: Strategist ]
[ Army completion finished! Reward 20 Locked Genetic Points ]
Alexander who just stood up from the ground after the assault of his friends was surprised again. They will be my comrades in the conquer of the world?
But these roles were selected quite appropriately. They were all really suited for the job they were appointed.
But what made him most happy was the gain of 20 genetic points.
Hey! System why are these locked?
This time system replied to him patiently.
[ Your body isn''t able to hold these! They can kill you if you don''t strengthen your body. ]
[ If you aren''t able to unlock them before you have next intercourse then these codes will be passed down to your next generation. A child with 20 genetic points will be a prodigy and the best successor as he or she grows. ]
Listening to system prompts, Alexander understood everything but he rolled his eyes after the second prompt.
I don''t even have the courage to talk with a girl and you want me to have the next generation.
You really bullsh*t!
Soon there was an expression of determination and seriousness on his face.Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.
I''ll have to exercise and make my body stronger! I''ll have to get those 20 genetic points!
Outside the classroom, three girls were talking amongst themselves while walking towards the classroom.
" Hey Emmy, your boyfriend is one of the four waste kings in our department? "
" Hey! Don''t say that! He''s here for me. Otherwise, he would have gone to the business department!"
The girl retorted with a shy expression on her face.
Although she didn''t feel nice when her boyfriend was told to be one of the four waste kings of the department but she was happy because he still stayed here for her instead of transferring to the business department just for his own face.
" Yeah I know he is here for you! Don''t take me otherwise, I just.. just wanted to know about Alexander." Emmy''s friend asked after hesitating a bit.
Emmy who was shy just know after thinking about his boyfriend was surprised after listening to her friend.
To confirm, she asked again,
" You want to know about the king of the four waste kings? Alexander Joseph?"
Other girl nodded her head but then clarified herself rashly,
" I just¡ just wanted to know and nothing else! "
Emmy punched her friend on her shoulder lightly and counter questioned her again,
" Are you interested in him? If I didn''t have Elliott I probably would have gone after him too. He''s really most handsome in our class but just less handsome than those of combat classes and military classes. "
As she just finished, they reached their classroom and saw Alexander sitting in the front desk and reading, while his friends who are sitting behind him and playing.
Emmy pushed her friend a bit and whispered in her ear, "Hazel! Isn''t that the boy you are interested in?"
The other girl was none other than Hazel Williams, who spent her time reading, sitting opposite to Alexander in the library.
Hazel''s face turned red in embarrassment and she pushed Emmy back and replied back, "I said, I am not! And moreover due to his rather small background my family won''t allow anything. "
Emmy giggled and said in a teasing tone, " I know you aren''t interested, so¡. I''ll introduce Lucy to him. They''ll make a perfect pair. One being sweet while other being handsome "
The sweet girl behind them was surprised to hear her name being mentioned in their talk.
She abruptly leaped forward and pulled Emmy''s hand who was going to walk forward and said, " Hey! Don''t pull me in your talk! I already love someone. "
Emmy rolled her eyes and said, " You are again talking about your game team captain? Huh? You haven''t even seen him and you love him? What if he''s an old lolicon uncle, who changed his age in the game?"
Lucy also doubted this but she can''t lose in front of her friend, so she bowed her head down, while pulling the corner of her top she mumbled in a soft voice, "I''ll still love him!"
Hazel who was now on standby, pulled both of them,
"Let''s go sit. The class will be starting soon. "
Ch 18 | Sitting with beauty
''After continuously reading at this tremendous speed, I feel like I don''t want to study anymore!''
''Aah! It''s becoming tiring with each passing day. I am reading every day like there''s no tomorrow.''
''After this mission is completed I need something else to do. I can''t just read like this for my whole life! Give me some research to do!''
Alexander was irritated after these three days of endless and tiring reading. His brain was being filled with information continuously like a container being filled with water under a tap, without any constraints.
''I guess I''ll start exercising in the evening too, although I won''t get any micro gene points.''
"Excuse me, are you sitting over here?" A sweet voice interrupted his thoughts.
He lifted his head and saw a sweet familiar face in front of him.
After searching his memories for a while and found this face in his memories, he knew who she was thus he stood up and said, " Sister-in-law, if you are sitting here I''ll go sit at the back. "
The girl in front of him was his friend Elliott''s girlfriend and future wife. Thus he happily gave up his seat to her and turned back to go sit with his friends.
Before he was about to leave, a familiar voice interrupted.
" Hey! Classmate Alexander! You can sit here I need to ask you a few questions in chemistry. "
Alexander retraced his leg and turned back. Hazel Williams was standing staring at him with a shy face, biting her lips.Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website.
She was already embarrassed after saying that now but due to the fact that she really wanted to ask some questions, she stayed still.
But the surrounding people took a step back. Emmy, Lucy, Elliott, Jacob, and Theo were all shocked to their cores. Hazel, actually took the initiative!
The world isn''t going right!
Three of Alexander''s friends looked at each other and exclaimed at the same time in their minds,
Fu*k! Big Bro Alexander is really great! He actually hooked class princess, Hazel Williams.
Alexander didn''t know what to do in this situation and thus stood still looking at his books, not wanting to look straight at Hazel. ( Author Note: Even I am not that shy! )
Emmy was smart, she knew that they both don''t know what to do, so she held Lucy''s hand and dragged her to sit with Elliott and co.
"You guys sit at the front, we will enjoy from the back." Elliott teased Alexander with a smirk.
Both Hazel and Alexander sat down. To remove this awkward situation, Hazel took out her notebook and asked a question.
Alexander too was relieved as he bent forward and started explaining the question in detail to her.
Their actions weren''t too much for them as they purely studying but the rest of the classroom, broke into chaos.
"Holy Sh*t, Princess Hazel sat together with a boy."
"The boy is the number one waste king in the department! How can he approach our princess?"
"I told you all, today is doomsday! The world isn''t stable! "
" Earlier Alexander started to read and now he''s sitting with the class princess. He must have stepped on some lucky sh*t! "
" I also want to step on that sh*t! No, I''ll take a bath with that sh*t! "
" That''s totally crazy! "
Elliott and co. weren''t silent either. They were also discussing but through messaging each other on their phone as they were sitting right behind them.
Elliott: @Emmy do you know when they got together?!
Jacob: Sister-in-law! Tell us!
Theo: +1
Lucy: +1
Emmy: I don''t know. But they aren''t together as of now! But Hazel is interested in Alexander.
Jacob: They aren''t together?!
Emmy: No! But we can catalyze!
Lucy: But sister Hazel''s family?
Elliott: Sigh! Brother Alexander doesn''t have a background!
Emmy: Sigh!
Theo: +1
Lucy: +1
Jacob: +10000
Ch 19 | Creating Miracles
A man wearing a typical white lab coat, who was still in his 30s entered the classroom. His face brown and hair black, from his looks he seems to be from Indian origin. His name was Felix Brown, a scholar and top-class surgeon in the field of medicine.
He teaches only a single class, that''s Alexander''s class.
He entered the classroom with his normally calm face and stood at the podium to begin the lecture. Before beginning the class, he scanned throughout the class and then his face turned a bit odd.
He coughed and said, "Cough, Cough .. Sorry students I entered the wrong classroom. "
When he was about to pick up his bag and leave, Hazel stood up and said, "Sir, it''s your class and you entered the right classroom."
Mr. Felix who was feeling something was off, also came back to his senses.
'' Why does it feel something is wrong! ''
'' It''s my class, but something is not right! ''
To clear his doubts he scanned through the classroom again and again and then came to the shocking conclusion.
'' Alexander and his friends aren''t sleeping but are sitting in front to listen?! ''
'' Is this a dream? ''
He pinched himself on his thighs.
A look of pain surfaced his face for a bit before being filled with surprise and confusion.
'' If this isn''t dream then why are these four sitting at the front? ''
Alexander who was looking at the confused expression of the professor starring at him already guessed his thoughts.
He stood up from his desk and said respectfully,
" Professor, I have decided to change myself and start learning under you! "
He then bowed a down a bit and continued,
" I hope you can forget my past and take me as a new student. "Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.
Professor Felix as well as other students, all were shocked.
''Alexander decided to change?! ''
''How is he speaking so respectfully? He was a hooligan before! ''
Professor being older than everyone else came back to reality earlier. He nodded at Alexander and said with a serious expression,
" Looking at your attitude, I believe that you have decided to change! I had always hoped that you and your friends could change yourselves and take the benefit of reading at a great institute. "
" Good! Very Good! I am really happy because of the changes! "
Listening to the professor''s voice and remarks, Alexander felt nostalgic. He in his previous life had a professor who taught him until he reached his deathbed, even before dying he told Alexander, " Good! Very Good! I am proud of myself and not you! I taught a student like you! Well done! "
" Ok, now we will start our classes. In the last class, we studied about glands and their secretion and functions. We learned about the pituitary gland, adrenal glands, pancreas... "
Professor Felix began his lecture without wasting any time.
As the class was going forward Alexander was not listening to the professor and reading his book on genetic information and gland transformation. The book deals with how genetic codes determine the age and efficiency of a gland.
Professor Felix who was lecturing noticed the book Alexander was reading and nodded.
"Ok since we have ended our discussion, I''ll ask you questions. "
" Since Alexander decided to change himself and was learning with concentration today, therefore I''ll ask him first."
Alexander stood up to receive the question with a straight back. He stood there in a calm and lifeless manner. There was also a gentle smile on his face.
To others, this action of him was due to him being terrified due to sudden questions from the professor.
There was again a series of discussions in the classroom.
'' Serves him right! He dared to talk to Princess Hazel! ''
'' He wanted to show off?! Now show off! ''
'' Great! Now I''m feeling good! ''
" Alexander since you are trying for the first time! I''ll ask you a simple question to explain the working of insulin. "
Professor Felix asked his question.
Alexander smiled and nodded before starting the answer,
" In simple words, Insulin is a hormone made by one of the body''s organs called the pancreas. Insulin helps your body turn blood sugar (glucose) into energy. It also helps your body store it in your muscles, fat cells, and liver to use later when your body needs it.
After you eat, your blood sugar (glucose) rises. This rise in glucose triggers your pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream. Insulin travels through the blood to your body''s cells. It tells the cells to open up and let the glucose in. Once inside, the cells convert glucose into energy or store it to use later.
Without insulin, your body can''t use or store glucose for energy. Instead, the glucose stays in your blood. "
Shocked!
Extremely Shocked!
Not only Alexander explained it! He explained it better than professor Felix!
Professor Felix was excited too, he shouted out,
" I knew, if that brain of yours starts working, it''ll create miracles. "
" Everyone! Since you have listened to the answer. Remember it well! That was really a good explanation! "
Ch 20 | Brother David
The sun was already near the horizon and traces of darkness were already covering the sky. The temperature was dropping pretty quickly and the wind was becoming cool and relaxing.
On the playground beside the cottage, Alexander who was wearing a black vest paired with a black trouser was doing push-ups.

He stood up from the ground. Push-ups weren''t included by the system in his daily task but he knew that arm strength is necessary for fights. Even if you have to fire an anti-tank rocket, you need to be able to hold the recoil force. Thus training one''s biceps was an important task.
He was drenched in sweat, wetting his vest. Although it''s only the first day but the effect of yesterday''s medicine was pretty good. His body was now in perfect shape, body muscles a bit toned, though not like a soldier but there wasn''t any extra fat.
After the morning class, he went to the library along with Hazel under the views of everyone. Even professor Felix was shocked!
He didn''t spit a single word in the library and was only reading continuously. He completed about another 5 books in three hours as they were pretty thin. Hazel on the opposite side of him would read sometime or would look at him with a confused gaze.
It wasn''t that Alexander didn''t want to talk with her but when it came to talking with girls, whether it was Alexander from another world or this world, they both were losers.
In the course of these three days, Alexander started to feel something about Hazel, he wasn''t as repulsive to her as he''s with any other girl. Her cute face, her quietness, and her witty brain, everything was up to his liking. This might be considered a bit of liking or admiration but this wasn''t enough to make him speak something to her in his own accord.You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
After the library, he came directly to exercise.
While he was looking at the sun after being drenched with sweat, a towel flew onto his body from the side, followed by a deep but excited voice.
" Hey, brother! Are you trying to get yourself sick to cancel our appointment? "
When Alexander turned his head, he saw a boy in a black hoodie and black jeans waving towards himself. The boy waved at him once and then started running along the track.
This was David. A crazy boy! He knew about his true identity as he was the son of his father''s best friend. He was his playmate in school and home since childhood.
Alexander felt warm in his heart looking at David''s care for him. He in his previous life never felt anything like that, there weren''t any true friends in his previous life! But this life he finally got them! And he''ll really cherish them!
Alexander hung the towel on his neck and started running towards David, eventually matching his speed. He looked at him and asked, " Hey brother, why didn''t you tell me that this forest cottage is so great? "
David turned his face towards him and gave him a dirty look,
" I didn''t tell you? Or you wanted to be Elliott and company? "
Alexander realizing his mistake coughed in embarrassment,
" Cough, Cough "
David who was running suddenly realized something and raised an eyebrow,
" Bro, did you get some medicine? "
Alexander who was still embarrassed a bit, looked at David in amazement, " How did you know? "
" Hahaha " David laughed
Alexander was curious about how David found about medicine?
" Hey tell me! How did you know that? "
David stopped running and patted at Alexander''s shoulder who also came to a halt just after David.
" Don''t I know my brother''s body? "
" If you didn''t get medication. You would have been already lying cold on the ground! Haha! But brother, I am really happy for you! "
While speaking the first part he was excited but in the last part, there was a drop of tear in the corner of his eye.
He swiftly wiped it off and laughed a bit.
" This is really great news! I''ll let uncle, aunt, and grandfather know! They will be most happy after knowing this. "
" But before that, we will have to celebrate. Let''s go to the best bar in the city. Let''s go get changed. "
He held Alexander''s hand and dragged him to his cottage forgetting about his own exercise schedule. Now his brother was fit like a normal human, so he is super happy!
Ch 21 | Long Family
'' First Grade Bar'' a golden shiny board was hanging outside a large well-illuminated place, attracting the attention of everyone passing by.
Vibrations of loud music resonated with one''s heart once they were just standing in front of the door. Even though such loud music was banned inside a crowded city after 9 pm by the alliance government, but since money plays an important role in everything, the city''s biggest bar was given special privileges.
Alexander and David entered the bar for their self proclaimed celebration. They were dressed quite similarly in a black hoodie, black jeans and white sneakers. With their huge bodies and handsome faces, they looked like rich second-generation children out for some fun at night.
Upon seeing them entering the bar, a greeter respectfully bowed down and asked, "Misters, do you need to book a private room? "
David just waved his hand and dragged Alexander towards the central bar counter.
This wasn''t their first time coming for drinks but Alexander was different this time. In his last life, he spent every day inside laboratories and classrooms without any friends just studying and researching about unknown, so he was surprised by just looking at the number of people dancing and drinking crazily.
'' This is really great! I missed all of this in my last life! I must not let this all escape this time. ''
He thought with an expression of regret on his face.
As they reached the bar counter, he saw a people in all varieties of ages, from old geezers to young chaps, drinking and chatting in their groups.
Since David was more familiar with the place, he went over to the bartender who was serving an illuminated drink to a old man and inquired, " Do you have devil''s tears?"
"Yes Sir"
"Then give us two glasses of Devil''s Tears along with a plate of salted cashews and peanuts. "
Alexander who was looking around in amazement, excitedly looked at the price chart that was hanging just over his head and was thunderstruck.Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.
Devil''s Tears: $500 GD / Glass.
He cursed inwardly.
Fu*k! Are they selling crude oil or alcohol?
$500 per glass is too expensive for just a drink! It''s really waste of money!
Since he hadn''t tasted a drop of alcohol in his last life, so he didn''t know that the prices of premium alcohol can really touch the heavens.
He was about to tell David to not spend too much on drinks but something else piqued his interest. He turned his head towards a group and heard the people there talking about something.
"Hey! Did you see the evening news?"
"No! What about that?"
"The bastard dog of the Long family, Long Xie was suspected of corruption again but he was cleared of all charges miraclously yet again!"
"What?! Again? That Long family is really too much! They are too active in business already and now they are stepping in politics! They only think about their own development, instead of the alliance! "
" Yeah! That''s already the nth time when their dogs were charged with corruption but are declared innocent in the end! Sigh! They are already too much powerful! "
Apart from Alexander, everyone surrounding them heard their talk and just sighed.
David leaned towards Alexander and whispered,
" Brother, that Long family is really too much. Your family isn''t in business but our family is really facing too much opposition. If not for uncle Max, we really don''t know how we will be able to do business, smoothly."
Alexander heard all this but didn''t respond as he was thinking about something incredible and devious.
He turned towards David who was eating peanuts and asked with a look of seriousness on his face, "Bro! Where can I open a bank account that cannot be traced? "
Alexander remembered that in his world there was a Swiss Bank that provided the facility of anonymous bank accounts. Through this, he can accumulate billions of dollars of funds without anyone knowing about him and suspecting him.
According to a great ruler from past,
"The first requirement of becoming a ruler is,
''Enormous Wealth''. "
Businesses can act as a power source in the modern world. People believe in companies they use daily, far more than the government elected themselves. Thus a big company with massive power can even direct people to revolt against government.
David thought for a while and said with a doubtful face, "You don''t even know this? Isn''t there a bank called ''Swiss Bank'' that provides anonymous accounts with no upper limit? "
Alexander nodded his head smoothly after listening to his answer but then suddenly with a jerk he straightened his back.
" What did you say? "
" I said there is a Swiss Bank. "
" Fu*k! This is also possible?! "
David looked at Alexander raising his eyebrows and started eating peanuts after that.
"Why isn''t this possible? "
Ch 22 | Idea to earn money
Inside Cottage number 2
Alexander who just returned from the bar was sitting on his bed, thinking about the great idea which came to his mind, while he was drinking with David at the bar.
When he listened to the talk about Long Xie''s scams, he thought about a brilliant scheme to earn money and drown the tall long household.
''Heh! You Long family will push my dad''s friend?''
''Although Taylor family isn''t my own family but my father is sworn brother with David''s father and David is my sworn brother. I need to push the Long family down the abyss.''
''If I can''t even push a family down, then how am I able to become the throned king of the world?!''
[ Hey kid! That''s the spirit! But what''s your plan? ]
No one knows why but recently the evil and overruling voice has become the default voice of the World Overlord System.
The sudden voice startled Alexander, but he soon calmed down.
Hey! Can''t you speak nicely?! And don''t startle me every time!
[ You can''t order me around! ]
[ Tell me your plan! How are you planning to push down the tall Long family? ]
Alexander rolled his eyes but still explained everything to the dominant system.
"I''ll use capturing the flags method!"
[ Huh? ]
"The Long family stands tall because they are dependent on their dogs in the political field. Then they use scammed money to inject in their businesses and keep them stable. "
"If I can use their dogs and take their money then I can increase my own power as well as wealth simultaneously. "If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
[ Kid! Don''t beat around the bush! Tell me straight! How you''ll do it? ]
" I''ll hack into their system! Steal some important information! Blackmail and coerce them! Money and their loyalty! I''ll get them both! "
[ Hehe! That''s a great plan! But are you capable?! ]
" Hey! Don''t underestimate me! I was a PhD holder in computer science. Even though I used to research on hardware technology but I know about networks. Not to mention that this world is still far from mine in technological advancement."
[ I really didn''t choose a wrong successor! But remember about your current mission. You can''t fail it! ]
Alexander was feeling happy just now but was pulled back to reality after listening to the system''s prompt.
He was still too fast from completing his goal of reading 100 books on medical science within a week.
''I need to study! But what?''
Hey, system! Do you have recommendations?
[ Before recommending you something, I need to ask you something. ]
Go ahead! It''s not that you''ll not ask if I don''t say yes!
[ Hehe! You understand me well kid! ]
After a pause, the system''s voice became more serious and deep, he asked a question that stumped Alexander''s genius brain.
[ What is your way of conquering the world? You''ll build an army to fight with tremendous blood flow of humanity or fight with wit to minimize blood flow? ]
Alexander started thinking about this deep question.
That''s right! What will I do? I haven''t even seen blood not to mention killing someone?!
What should I do?
From the time immemorial, great kings needed to sacrifice blood for sitting on the throne!
Can I do it?
I can''t see people killing themselves for me¡ but sitting on the throne isn''t easy!
Alexander who was always ready to answer any question was now trapped in a question he can''t avoid!
What should he do? Choose killing or minimise blood loss?! Killing with an army means acquiring extraordinary resources and training everyone! Minimising blood meant to acquire otherworldly power to stomp on others!
Training everyone to peak may look difficult and unattainable but acquiring otherworldly power was impossible! This wasn''t some novel, but a real-world!
Deep within the head of Alexander, two memories were struggling!
One white other black! Like the fight between evil and right! Like demons and gods!
His soul was introverted, living alone in hell. He didn''t need anyone in his last life! He was alone, alone as the moon in the sky! The coldness of the moon didn''t care about anyone!
His memories were of a loving lively boy! He had a family he loved, friends he loved and lives he needed to save.
The war between the two was creating havoc inside his head, after fighting for about fifteen minutes, his soul trembled with excitement and other memories inside his head were pushed down.
Gradually everything became silent! Without any motion!
The fight ended!
He raised his head and declared with determination and coldness apparent on his face.
" I''ll save anyone I love and are innocent! But will kill anyone who is in my path of accession! "
" So what if people are killed! I''ll become strong for me and my people! "
" I''ll rise as a king! And sit on ''Throne of World''."
Ch 23 | Soul Fusion
[ You sure amaze me, kid! I didn''t know that a kid like you can make such a bold choice! ]
[ The dominating and killing intent for crushing the opponents! Love to your own people! That''s the nature of a true ruler! ]
[ Since you made a correct choice! I''ll gift you something. ]
[ Till now your brain wasn''t working on its full potential because of the partial fusion of soul and memories! ]
When the last system prompt rang, Alexander was shocked!
''My brain is already learning that fast after the memory gene unlock but you''re saying it''s still not working at its maximum potential? Are you kidding me?''
[ Kid! You have learnt about the human body in theory and you still believe that this is your maximum potential? You''re too naive!! ]
[ The truth is, even in the whole world ranking your brain isn''t even numbered in top 100s! ]
This was a heavy blow to Alexander! He was already quite satisfied with his brain, but now he was just like a toad at the bottom of the well! Not a well but at the bottom of the grave which was dug inside a well!
Ignoring the blown away mind of Alexander, the system continued,
[ Today I''ll help you fuse your soul completely with the memories and this body! This may be a bit too painful but if you can''t even handle this pain then you aren''t qualified to be a ruler! ]
[ Also this pain will remain in your head for the next two days! This will also be ''task'' for your mental training! ]
[ Hehehe!! Let''s begin ]
And after a pause another prompt sounded.
[ Soul fusion started ]
Alexander was sitting on his bed trying to feel any changes inside his body, but he didn''t feel anything for next 5¡10...15 minutes.A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
''Was that shi**y system joking just now? Forget about the pain! I don''t even feel anything itching inside my head.''
Just as his thoughts settled and he was about to pick up a book to read, he suddenly felt a little tingling in his head.
Is this the feeling system was talking about?
The tingling sensation inside his head grew stronger and stronger slowly! It felt like there were about 100... Nah! 1000s of ants.. centipedes crawling inside his skull. This itching was still nothing much for Alexander but after about 10 minutes he realised something incredible!
He cursed loudly!
" Fu*k, if this goes on for two whole days then I will become insane by the time everything settles. "
" I underestimated that shitty system! If it was direct pain I could still endure it but now I''ll go crazy! "
He tried to ignore everything and read his book but after every few minutes, he would scratch his head.
In the beginning, it was quite normal but soon after the force he applied while scratching his head increased! If he wasn''t careful enough then he could have easily ripped his skin.
This is really crazy!
I can''t read like this!
Aah!
He threw his book on the table and lied down on his bed!
He tried to roll his body over and over to change postures but all his attempts failed. He was getting crazy over the itchy condition but still can''t do anything about it.
Slowly the moon settled down and the sun rose at the horizon. The alarm beeped, waking Alexander up from his deep slumber.
It was not that he was able to sleep last night rather he just fainted after the irritation became too unbearable!
He slowly opened his eyes after gaining back his consciousness but soon realised that he wasn''t able to relieve himself from the blunt pain.
This itching will make me crazy!
He lazily stood up from his bed and went to the bathroom to clean himself up. After he cleaned himself up he went to the playground for morning exercise and started to run on the track.
"This pain and itching wasn''t something that can make me submit! I''ll take this head-on!"
He shouted with determination.
"That crazy system already said that it''s for practice! Then let''s just pass this as a master teaching me."
He completed 4 rounds of running around the track with an incredible speed but he didn''t stop and ran continuously.
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained ]
¡.
Throughout the entire morning, he ran for a double-digit number of times around the track yet he also did push-ups, jumping and crunches.
His extraordinary pain was already making him crazy, but to suppress this feelings and distract himself, he was working out like crazy.
Before he left for the cottage to get changed her received his last notification.
...
[ 1 Micro Gene Point Gained]
Today he made a collection of freaking 60 Micro Gene Points.
That''s a huge fortune!
Ch 24 | Extraordinary Skills Unlocked

]
He was quite happy to see an increment in his stats. This was an indicator of progress towards his supreme goal or system''s supreme goal.
His knowledge base changed to average, the training phase changed to beginner and most importantly, his leadership points increased by 50. This was a huge achievement for him.
But he was depressed when he saw his current mission stats. He still needed to read 75 medical science books.
But he was currently facing headache like a tsunami, raging through his head.
"Hey, system! You didn''t recommend me some books yesterday. Tell me something now. "
[ Ok! I recommend you to read books on genetics and congenital diseases. As for how you''ll use this knowledge is upto you. ]
When Alexander heard about genetics, his mind was forming another idea.
" Isn''t the human body''s capabilities decided by genes?"
" And I have to gain gene points by completing missions! "
" Hehe! What if I synthetically unlock my dormant genes?! I can gain gene points and become a superhuman! "
This knowledge was acquired from system. He told Alexander about real use of gene points. It wasn''t needed for anything else but to activate dormant genes that are already present inside a man.This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.
He continued thinking about his new project,
"In my last life, a professor created a macromolecule that possessed the ability to reverse cell age by unlocking longevity genes. Then if he can do it, I''ll try to unlock other genes by creating different macromolecules, and become super powerful"
{ Author Note: The professor mentioned here is "David Sinclair". The molecule mentioned here is real but working given here isn''t correct and this was only tested on lab rats. If you are interested in this, go checkout on google. I love to increase your knowledge base. }
" Sigh, But all of this will need money and knowledge! "
He soon reached his classroom and due to his severe headache he just slumped down on the second desk leaving the first desk vacant. He took out his book on ''modern surgical procedures'' and started reading it thoroughly.
To his surprise, even when suffering from severe headache he was able to concentrate properly. To be perfect he was more concentrated than ever!
" This is the effect of soul fusion?! It just started yesterday and I am already able to get powers close to photographic memory. I can comprehend everything in the book too easily."
He cleared his mind and amidst the headache read 5 books in 25 minutes! 5 mins per book!
"This is fu*king crazy!"
He almost yelled out excitedly.
'' There are still 45 minutes left before classes start and I have already finished reading all my books! ''
'' I was worrying about mission completion and now I can complete it in a day! Hahaha ''
He stood up and under the questioning gazes of other students ran towards the library.
Once he reached the library, he started picking up a variety of books: ''Cytology'', ''Advanced Cytology'', '' Methods of cellular communications'',''Cellular Information'',''Advanced Genetics'' and a book on latest biological patents.
I''ll end this mission today!
When he reached his classroom holding all those books, everyone was terrified.
"I think Alexander is crazy!"
" That''s too many books, even to count!"
" He should go for a check-up with a doctor. "
Due to his actions, there was a sudden burst of noise in the classroom. Everyone was talking about him but on the other hand, Alexander sat down quietly on his desk and started flipping through the books.
It was a completely new field for him but he took only about seven minutes per book as he was rushing towards his goal.
Outside the classroom:
Three boys and three girls were walking towards the classroom but were talking about our protagonist, even though they didn''t know about today''s happenings.
Lucy who was always smiling asked with curiosity and her questioned dragged everyone towards the person who was questioned,
" Hey, Hazel! How were you attracted to Alexander?Um... I mean how did you meet him? "
Hazel who was wearing a green colour top and skirt with a long ponytail, blushed a bit but retorted " Who is attracted towards the number one waste king? "
Elliott was walking just beside Emmy raised an eyebrow and asked, " Hazel! Brother Alexander isn''t a waste king anymore! He reads books everyday and is trying to become studious. "
Hazel was just embarrassed to talk about Alexander for an unknown reason, she looked towards Elliott and said, "Waste king or not! I am not interested in him! It''s just that I needed some help in chemistry and he helped me in the library. "
Seeing her embarrassed expression everyone giggled a bit and teased her even more, " So you two met at the library! "
Ch 25 | Rejecting Hazel Twice
When the group of guys and girls entered the classroom they saw Alexander sitting on his desk and flipping through the mountain of books.
Out of curiosity, Elliott mumbled softly, " Is brother Alexander looking for something? "
Emmy who was by his side nodded her head in approval and answered,
" I also think that! "
Only Hazel was the one who knew what may be happening. As she always spends her time in the library, reading books while sitting across Alexander, she knew about his reading speed.
But today she was also confused, " This isn''t a speed to read books! He must be really finding something! " She thought in her mind.
As they got closer to him, Hazel found that all the books were somehow related to genetics but they weren''t on the same topics. " Is he''s really finding something? Then the books should be for the same topics but they are different! Is he really learning at this ridiculous speed?! " She was confused yet again.
Elliott and guys went over to sit along with Alexander while Emmy was looking at Hazel with a questioning gaze.
Just when Emmy was about to sit on the first desk seeing no response from Hazel, Hazel turned her head back and softly called out Alexander, " Classmate Alexander! "
But under surprised gazes, Alexander didn''t respond at all.
Hazel was also surprised, but she thought that since he was busy finding something so he might not have heard her voice, so she called out again.This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
This time her sound was a bit loud than her previous call, "Classmate Alexander!"
But the jaws of everyone surrounding them dropped on the ground! Alexander didn''t respond at all and was just flipping through the books.
Hazel who just used up her pride to call Alexander twice was confused, " Is he ignoring me? "
Elliott felt that Hazel was already being too humble to call out his bro shamelessly twice, being a princess herself. So he reached out and tapped on Alexander''s shoulder.
"Brother Alexander! Princess Hazel is calling you! "
After being tapped on the shoulder, Alexander who was diving deep into his world of books and knowledge was brought back to reality. He started feeling the pain in his head again.
He lifted up his head and looked towards Elliott, " Huh? What did you say? "
Seeing his naturally confused expression, everyone confirmed that he was really not listening to anyone and didn''t purposefully ignore Hazel''s call. Hazel also gained back her composure.
Listening that, Hazel was looking for him, he turned towards her and asked, " Miss, Did you call me? "
Hazel listened to his form of address and felt a bit disappointed, but since this is how he usually addresses her and other girls apart from Emmy, she requested, " Classmate Alexander, can you help me out in chemistry? "
Alexander heard her and directly refused politely, " Miss I have something important to do today, so I will not be able to help you today. " And after that, without even looking at her once, he dropped his head again into his books.
Elliott, Jacob and Theo cursed silently.
''F**k! Big brother rejected Princess Hazel?!''
Hazel who just got back her composure a while ago, was devastated!
"He actually rejected me just like that?! And this isn''t his first time?! "
" Since his family name is Joseph, does he think he''s the heir of Joseph family?! "
" Even they would not reject me so directly! "
Alexander didn''t think about anything else and was just rushing through the books, forming a superb idea inside his brain.
Even the system started laughing evilly after knowing his idea! "Hahaha! Kid, you''ll really become a mighty ruler with this! "
" With each passing hour! You are proving yourself to be my perfect choice! "
Ch 26 | Inter Departmental Rush
Morning classes ended quite well. Alexander was just flipping through his books, enriching his soul with the vast knowledge of genetics and human genes. With his own extraordinary knowledge of chemistry and his newly gained biological knowledge, he formed an idea to steal gene points from the system and along with that, his ''risk experiment'' was upgraded to another level.
Now with the upgraded level of his experiment, he''ll need to wait for a few more weeks to start. As he''ll be doing it big!!
He was already thinking about ''Inter-Departmental Rush'' competition as he''ll get a chance to enter the forest and thus he''ll be able to find more advanced and better herbs than he''ll be able to buy with money.
"Organic Things are always the best"
This ''Inter-Departmental Rush'' Competition is a program held by the military institute where students of different branches and graduation years are packed together forming a team and are sent to the forest to hunt other teams.
This isn''t a real hunt. The students are needed to mark each other with the limestones. The students who are marked white with the limestone will get out of the forest on their own.
The aim is to unleash their survival and fighting instincts. The team with the maximum number of players remaining safe after the day ends will be declared the winner. And the winning players will be given a chance to join close combat classes meant for special forces.
'' It''s good that there is still a month left before the competition stars. I can find better herbs then! ''
Alexander took a deep breath and walked towards the library to return these books which he finished and start reading another bunch. With only 25 books remaining to read, he was confident in completing his target today.
Unknown to him, Hazel who was still depressed over the morning''s matter was following behind him.
Due to his severe headache, his vigilance was already at rock bottom. He would occasionally lift both his hands and slightly press his neck and back of the head at certain points due to headache.
Hazel who was following behind him noticed his repeating actions but she let it go as she was already suffering from the insult he did by rejecting her in front of so many people.The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
Alexander went to the librarian, returned those books and started picking a new set of books on advanced medicine and genetics.
With over 25 books in his hands, he sat down at his usual place. And started flipping through the books ignoring Hazel who was already standing in front of him with some chemistry books in her hands.
She noticed herself being ignored and thought,
" He isn''t reading some lewd books, then how am I not attractive to him than that genetics book?! "
" Did I lose my charm or is he really not interested in me? "
She coughed a bit to attract his attention once again but noticing that he didn''t even move a hair, she sat down with a stomp.
" Let me see how long you''ll be able to ignore me! Humph! "
" Playing hard to get with me? That''s my game! "
An hour passed and his head was still dipped down.
Hazel was getting impatient. Although she came here for the purpose of reading and learning, she wasn''t able to keep calm after seeing this cold person, Alexander.
She didn''t know why but his aura was changing and was becoming cold like a demon from the netherworld the more he read and there was cold smile hung on his calm face, demonifying him more.
Another hour and a half passed and he finally kept his book down and took in a deep breathe. His eyes rolled back to his head and his vision darkened before his head feel down on the table with a "thud".
Hazel who was hiding her face behind the book heard the "thud" sound and put down her book. She squinted her eyes and saw Alexander with his face planted on the table.
" He is just relaxing after completing his ''book flipping''. He doesn''t dare to talk with me?! He''s probably regretting his actions and trying to find a way to talk. "
"Let it be! He should pay for what he did, I''ll ignore him."
Her thoughts formed inside her small head and she picked up her book and hid her face behind the book once again.
15 minutes.. 20 minutes.. 30 minutes...
"Still not taking? Is he that embarrassed?! Is he even man?! "
She whispered a bit scornfully.
But she still put down her book to find Alexander in the same position as he was about half an hour ago.
She squinted her eyes as they became as small as slit!
" This isn''t right why is he lying like that? "
She turned around and saw that the library was empty as a desert. She pushed back her chair a bit and stood up, walking she came behind Alexander.
She thought that Alexander was asleep and reached out to wake him up.
She pushed a bit and said softly, "Classmate Alexander wakeup!"
No Reaction! Deathly silence!
She felt unease and pushed harder, "Classmate Alexander wakeup! It''s a library, not your dorm! "
Still Silence!
This time she was irritated as she pushed even harder but he slipped from the chair and fell on the ground with his head hitting hard on the ground and pale face facing the ceiling.
Hazel was frightened! Extremely frightened! Her soul was about to leave the library.
