《My School Is Transported Into Another World!》


 Prologue

    In a certain school a 16 year old law abiding student was looking down a window with a relaxed expression. The scene of birds flying towards the horizon and the pedestrians walking down the streets calmed his heart. Thinking of the game he played last night, he smiled. How wonderful it would be if I was born or even transported in a world like that. This thought passed through his mind.


    ¡°Kuuukkk!¡±


    ¡°Gray, I¡¯m teaching right now. Don¡¯t treat me like how you treat the other teachers¡±


    ¡°Don''t be mean Stella. You could get sued for throwing a chalk at a student you know? Oh the pain!¡±


    Rubbing my forehead I looked at my teacher with a pained face that was close to crying. Her black hair, blue eyes and small stature could make certain people feel goose bumps all over their body and the look she gives when she gets irritated could also make other people kneel, but as I was not one of these perverts, these had no effect on me. Yes, because I¡¯m a gentleman and not a pervert I only find it cute. I only find it cute okay!


    With a strained face, my teacher, Stella looked at me as if looking at an insect. Finally after a few moments, she avoided eye contact and sighed.


    ¡°Just listen properly when I¡¯m teaching¡±


    ¡°Will do¡±


    Nodding my head, I showed my confirmation with a beaming smile, earning yet another sigh. Turning back, Stella continued writing on the whiteboard with a marker while spouting some gibberish words about the upcoming exam.


    ¡°Pssst!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡°I said pssst! Hey look at me!¡±


    To my side, an annoying guy with blonde hair and a stupid smile poked me and whispered while occasionally making sure that our teacher was not looking this way.


    ¡°Can you keep it down, can¡¯t you see I¡¯m listening¡±


    ¡°Huh? Weren¡¯t you just staring off into space a moment ago?


    ¡°What did you say Christophe? I can¡¯t hear you¡±


    After a few more rounds of whispering, Stella then finally looked at the talking machine gun and a certain picture perfect student smiling and looking intently at the whiteboard, as if trying to take in all the information.


    ¡°Christophe, get out from this room this instant¡±


    A chilling cold pervaded the room and assailed the pitiful student next to me. Making him shiver uncontrollably, ahhh, this is the reason why I stopped talking.


    Walking out of the room with lifeless steps, Christophe walked out followed by Stella into the office.


    The moment she stepped foot outside and closed the door, the people in the room turned a 180 degree in attitude.


    ¡°Finally I can relax¡±


    A chestnut haired colored athletic looking young girl stretched her hands towards the air and giggled. Her seat was next to the now empty seat where Christophe once sat. Her name was Serena and she''s the school¡¯s fastest runner. If only she had good grades, allowing her to enter the interschool tournaments, she would¡¯ve probably won all the way to the nationals.


    ¡°Hehehe, too bad Christophe was sacrificed. Oh well, a sacrifice is needed once in a while¡±You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.


    In the seat in front, a tall and muscular guy with dirty blonde hair that screamed the word bully laughed light heartedly. Most people would think that he was a bad person because of his appearance. Though once you get to know him, you¡¯ll find out that he has a good heart. His name is Bryan and is theformer football supestar of our school.


    ¡°Hey Gray you better make up with Christophe ok?¡±


    Next to the laughing gorilla, a bespectacled timid looking girl with short black hair walked next to me. Her name was Dorothy and is the sister of the smartest student in our grade. Despite her timid and smart looking appearance, she is actually not that timid and is actually the one with the lowest grades in our class. It¡¯s not that she was dumb, she is actually quite smart, knowing lots of trivia. Too bad the school does not take this into account when counting grades. Also this might be unrelated but she is what one would call a fujoshi. Someone who enjoys male to male bond if you know what I mean.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll buy him some snacks later¡±


    These are all my idiotic but fun classmates. Were all in the lowest section in middle school and are also nicknamed ¡®The Dropouts¡¯. Honestly I¡¯m not sure who started this name calling but once I saw him, I¡¯ll make sure he gets one thing correct. We may be close to being expelled in school due to our grades, but at least were not expelled yet. They should only start calling us dropouts when we repeat a year or get expelled or something.


    The moment footsteps echoed on the corridor. We all kept silent and sat upright and looked at our textbooks with serious expressions.


    The one who walked in first is a teary-eyed Christophe followed by a black haired girl, sorry what I meant was young woman. The teary eyed student then walked towards his seat and wiped the tears on his face while the young woman looked at all of us with a tired expression before sighing and continuing the lesson.


    This young woman that looked like a defiant young girl is not only cute and terrifying at the same time. But also the kindest person I¡¯ve met. Even though we were an annoying bunch, she still persevered and taught us on all subject after school even when she doesn¡¯t get paid for overtime.


    The other teachers just scoffed at us and talked amongst themselves that we had no chance of graduating and will get expelled soon enough. But she just ¡®convinced¡¯ us to go and attend her after school lessons. Of course at first we were hesitant and skipped a couple of lessons. But then she looks for us the next day and forces us to attend her lessons whether we like it or not.


    The other students laughed at us saying we were unlucky but I would say that they were wrong. We were not unlucky but lucky. Lucky enough to meet someone who guides us even during hard times even when we''re not related by blood.


    ¡°What are you looking at?¡±


    ¡°Nothing¡­¡±


    I looked at this defiant looking girl and smiled. I¡¯m sure the others also feel endless gratitude to this adorable existence. If it weren¡¯t for her, we wouldn¡¯t have been friends and stayed for so long in this school anyway.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    With a suspicious expression she looked at me for a few seconds before telling us to turn the next page and explained the words that were difficult to understand. Everyone thought this was going to be another normal day, but that was not to be. That day, an unforgettable event happened in school.


    ¡°Wha- what!¡±


    ¡°*shrieks*¡±


    ¡°Everyone under your desks now!¡±


    Stella¡¯s shout brought us to reality. Following her words, we crawled under our desks. We thought she would do so as well but instead she started to run towards the door with an agitated expression. The strength of the earthquake was probably magnitude 7, making it nearly impossible to run so she tripped a couple of times.


    ¡°Stella wait! Where are you going!¡±


    Jumping away from under the desk, I grabbed Stella¡¯s slender hand and stopped her from taking another step.


    ¡°What are you doing?! Get under your desk right now!¡±


    ¡°What are you saying?! Shouldn¡¯t you hide under your desk as well?!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t you understand?! I have to make sure that the others are alright!¡±


    Pulling her hand away, she glared at me while gritting her teeth.


    ¡°Teacher!¡±


    ¡°Stop her Gray!¡±


    She tried to go past me but I just moved to the side stopping her advance. I was about to walk towards her to force her to go under her desk when I noticed her eyes opening wide with shock.


    She ran towards me and pushed. The power she used was disproportionate to her body. Stumbling down towards the ground, a loud bang exploded in the place I was in a second ago. After a moment of shock, I finally understood what happened.


    ¡°¡°Teacher!¡±¡±


    Even when under the threat of something falling on them, my classmates still ran towards our teacher and benefactor.Standing up with shaky legs, I also walked closer while holding my breath.


    ¡°Ste¡­lla¡±


    What laid before me was a young girl with black hair and blue eyes with blood flowing out on her forehead and left leg. Beside her lay a huge and a couple of small boulder looking material that was previously part of the second floor.


    ¡°¡­I¡¯m fine¡±


    She smiled wryly and looked at me in the eye.


    ¡°It¡¯s not your fault¡±


    These were the words she spoke before a huge distortion appeared around us.

 Chapter 1

    ¡°I¡¯m going to puke¡±


    In a corner Christophe muttered to himself and not long later, puked.


    The putrid smell did not affect me the least as I bandaged the wound on Stella¡¯s leg and forehead. Luckily she managed to dodge the large boulder at the last second, if not¡­ I wouldn¡¯t even want to think about it.


    The wound she received on the head was not that deep. But still there is a chance that it would have lasting effect on her brain. This is the thing that is making us worried the most, apart from the fact that she might die due to bleeding or never waking up due to concussion.


    The one on her leg were just minor cuts. At first we thought that it was crushed after getting hit by one of the debris because it was by far bloodier than the injury on her head. After taking a closer look, we found out the reason it was bloodier was actually because it was filled with cuts of varying degrees.


    Cutting the bandage, I placed both the scissors and the bandage back in the medical kit. The medical we were using was the one Stella bought in the past, with the reason being we were too rowdy which might make her ''accidentally'' hurt us in the future.


    ¡°¡­That should do it¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    No one said a word the whole time we were tying up Stella¡¯s wounds. I¡¯m not sure if they blame me for what happened to Stella, but deep in my heart I hope they do. It¡¯s not because I¡¯m a masochist or anything, I just wanted to feel pain to deter the anxiety in my heart. After making up my mind I then asked what has been bugging me the entire time.


    ¡°Did you guys feel that?¡±


    ¡°¡­What do you mean?¡± Asked Dorothy


    ¡°Those lights¡­ forget it¡±


    ¡°Wait! You saw it too!¡±


    Standing up from his position, Christophe rubbed the corner of his mouth with his sleeves. His pale countenance is only second to Stella¡¯s face.


    ¡°Come to think of it, I did see some lights for a moment¡± Spoke Bryan


    ¡°¡­I¡¯m going to go get Serena. She¡¯s late¡±


    Just when Dorothy was about to stand up and look for Serena, the door suddenly opened with a bang and a panic stricken Serena entered the room.


    Judging from her expression it was not news that can be easily discarded. Gulping my saliva, I asked a question.


    ¡°What is it?¡±


    The moment I asked that she answered right away.


    ¡°The city¡­ It¡¯s gone!¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    ¡°Wha- what do you mean?¡± Asked Christophe in a shrilly voice.


    ¡°Like I said the city is gone!¡±


    Silence. Everyone in the room was silent. How could the city suddenly vanish so easily? I know that the earthquake just now was strong, but I didn''t think it was capable of destroying cities in one go unless¡­


    ¡°Serena, what does it look like outside¡±


    Because we were in a room where there were no windows. We couldn¡¯t see what was happening outside.


    Shaking her head Serena spoke in a sullen voice. ¡°You guys just have to see it with your own eyes. The school president just ordered everyone to go outside and do a headcount. Oh and also¡±


    With her eyes flickering for a moment she continued he words.


    ¡°The school¡¯s nurse is busy tending with the other students. She said she¡¯ll come over later in the afternoon¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This is bad. If the city is truly gone then the hospital is gone as well and also if the school nurse does not have time to check on Stella then we wouldn¡¯t know how severe her condition is.


    ¡°*sighs* We don¡¯t have much choice. Come on let¡¯s go¡±


    ¡°Gray¡­what about stella?¡±


    I looked at Christophe in the eye and a sigh escaped from my lips.


    ¡°We don¡¯t have much of a choice. Let¡¯s just leave her here for now. The faster we go outside and finish the headcount the faster we can go back and check on her condition¡±


    I walked outside and didn¡¯t say another word. The others just looked at each other before following reluctantly.The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.


    The way outside was filled with broken walls, ceilings, and debris with the occasional blood on the floor. There were no people in sight, probably because they already went outside.


    After walking out of the school no word escaped from my mouth.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    In the past buildings of various sizes enveloped the school. Now it was different. Now a lush green forest is the one enveloping the school.


    Walking towards a group of flustered and the occasional crying students who are lined up based on their grade and section. I walked towards a place next to them. Honestly I¡¯m quite shocked that I was calm even in this situation. Probably because I¡¯ve read a similar situation in a certain novel that I¡¯ve read a few years back.


    When we all walked over, I walked at the front as a class representative and told them that we were all present and are uninjured except for our teacher. The guy that did the headcount did not bat an eye and instead walked over to another line. Although I was angry because of how he didn¡¯t even ask about the Stella¡¯s injury. It¡¯s understandable since if they asked of everyone¡¯s injury then it would take way too much time and might cause further panic among the students.


    Our school is considered quite big. I¡¯m not sure of how many students are enrolled in this school but I¡¯m sure at the very least there are a thousand enrolled right now.


    ¡°Hmmm, testing testing¡±


    Standing on a podium the school president, a bespectacled senior year upperclassman who had an intellectual and sharp look on his face spoke while tapping on a wireless mic.


    ¡°Alright everyone line up properly and listen up¡±


    With someone of authority suddenly appearing, of course it would calm down most people. Although there are some people who still kept talking most of us kept quiet and lined up. In the past when a group of students were seen talking they would be called out to the office but seeing that as this was an emergency the school president, Thomas, did no point that out.


    ¡°First of all I would like everyone to calm down. I¡¯m sure everyone is confused why the city suddenly vanished and now a forest took its place¡­ honestly we¡¯re not sure why this happened either. But we are sure that¡­.this is not Earth¡±


    This shocking statement caused panic among the students but with a strong tap on the mic, Thomas calmed them down.


    ¡°I said calm down didn¡¯t I?¡± Rubbing his forehead Thomas continued. ¡°It¡¯s not like we haven¡¯t done anything. We found out some things. First of all just think of the word status¡±


    Following his words I thought of the word status.


    Name: Gray


    Age: 16


    Gender: Male


    Lvl: 1


    Strength: 5


    Agility: 7


    Magic Power: 6


    ¡°Wow¡­ it¡¯s like a game¡±


    Behind me, Christophe mumbled to himself. I didn¡¯t really listen to him but instead just looked at my status screen with a gaping mouth.


    ¡°Alright everyone, in the bottom left off your status screen. You could see a button called shop. Now think of the word shop¡±


    With my heart thumping madly I thought of the word shop.


    There were different categories listed. In the place of where the status page was now the shop page took its place. In the top right corner I could see a 100 shining in bright colors. These were probably the shop points that are used in games.


    ¡°Now I suggest you all pick a skill that you would like. Just think of the word price and think of the amount of shop point you want to spend but personally I suggest you take the ¡®Minor Heal¡¯ skill¡±


    I did as the president said and thought of the limit of the shop points I want to spend not long later a list of skills appeared before me.


    Slash: 50


    Fireball: 100


    Ice arrow: 100


    Minor Heal: 100


    ...


    I was about to buy the skill but then a voice stopped me.


    ¡°Wait¡±


    Dorothy stopped us from buying the skill and talked in a serious voice.


    ¡°Don¡¯t buy it. All we need is one healer and we can heal teacher Stella¡±


    ¡°But Dorothy isn¡¯t it better if we all take this skill?¡± Asked Bryan as he scratched his head.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you understand?¡± Spoke Dorothy while motioning us to come closer before whispering her next words. ¡°They don¡¯t want us to have the strength to fight back. Why would they want all of us to take the heal skill? Isn¡¯t that because they want to prevent the students from gaining power since they might overthrow the student council and teachers? It¡¯s better if we have a way to defend ourselves. We¡¯re away from society now; no one can help us but ourselves. Besides you saw you saw your level right? If this is really like a game then we can just hunt monsters and increase our level and we can¡¯t do that if we all took the heal skill now can we?¡±


    Ahhh, now I understand where she¡¯s coming from. If we don¡¯t have a way to gain levels then that¡¯s like turning us into weak but useful workers. If the students could heal the injured and at the same time have no power to fight back those who control security then that would be the best scenario for everyone. As expected from the president, he¡¯s smart. Though I don¡¯t know why he knew all this information. It¡¯s suspicious¡­


    ¡°All right, who wants to take the heal skill?¡± I questioned this and looked at all of them in the eye until Dorothy steeped forward.


    ¡°I¡¯ll do it¡±


    After closing her eyes for a few seconds, she then started walking towards the entrance of the school.


    ¡°Wait Dorothy, what about the assembly?


    Serena stopped Dorothy by using her hands and turning her around.


    ¡°Serena look¡± I pointed at the other students. Even when we hadn¡¯t been told to disperse yet, almost everyone started running towards the entrance of the school. They were probably heading towards the injured so they could heal them. But judging from the slow movement and carefree walk of some of the students, they didn¡¯t buy the ¡°Minor Heal¡± skill.


    Running with the other students, we ran all the way back to our classroom. After entering the room, Dorothy kneeled down next to Stella and chanted her skill.


    ¡°Minor Heal¡±


    A small ray of light then appeared from her hands. Stella¡¯s complexion then became better, albeit slightly. If one did not look carefully then they wouldn¡¯t noticed it at all.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Did it work?¡± Asked Bryan but no one answered his question. Dorothy kept using her skill but when she used it for the third time she then began to wobble.


    ¡°Are you alright Dorothy¡± Serena held Dorothy¡¯s shoulders and asked this question.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine¡­ I just feel tired that¡¯s all¡±


    Carrying her over, Serena placed her next to the wall. Now with our healer out of commission we had no choice but to wait until she woke up and used another skill.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to get some food¡±


    Standing up, I walked outside the door. The other¡¯s merely nodded at my words.


    After walking outside again I walked to a place where a group of people stood as if waiting for something. The one they were waiting for was where the food was being distributed. I saw it just before running with the river of students. I wanted to get some food then but I wanted to see the effects of Dorothy¡¯s skill even more so I went to the classroom first.


    ¡°Here¡±


    After lining up for with what seems to be forever, a fat and oily faced woman with a scowl on her face, wearing an apron and hairnet passed me six plates filed of food on a tray after showing her my I.D. stating that I was the class representative and I was just getting the food for my other classmates and teacher.


    Walking back towards the classroom I was met with shocking news.


    ¡°Gray¡­ she leveled up!¡± Spoke Serena with a beaming smile.

 Chapter 2

    ¡°What? Dorothy, you leveled up!¡±


    ¡°Mmmm¡±


    She merely nodded her head and used the ¡°Minor Heal¡± skill on Stella once again.


    ¡°Feel anything different?¡±


    ¡°I got dizzy at first, probably because I leveled up or because I used too much mana. When I woke up and checked my status. It told me I leveled up¡±


    I see, so using your skills can make one level up huh. I¡¯m not sure if one can level up if you have no one to use it on though. I guess experiments are necessary huh.


    ¡°Oh, one more thing¡± Spoke Dorothy ¡°I got some bonus stat points too¡±


    ¡°Stat points?¡±


    My eyes sparkled like stars as I asked this question. These are stat points! If one has enough the one can even wipe out an entire army alone!


    ¡°How many?¡±


    ¡°Two. The bonus stats is 2 just so you know. Oh, also all my stats increased by one¡± Said Dorothy.


    ¡°Hoh? Which stats did you add them on?¡± I asked with genuine interest.


    ¡°I placed them all on magic power so now my magic power is ten now¡±


    Wait, her magic power is nine? But six plus three equals nine. But she says she has ten. Doesn¡¯t that mean she already had seven magic power stat points since the beginning?


    ¡°Guys, I just noticed something groundbreaking¡±


    I got their attention so I continued speaking with a smug grin.


    ¡°We all have different stat points!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Even though I just told them something amazing, they just stayed silent and looked at me as if I was an idiot.


    ¡°We already know Sherlock¡± spoke Dorothy as she looked at me with eyes of pity.


    ¡°Gahahaha! What an idiot!¡± Laughed Bryan.


    ¡°What did you think? We all had the same stats. Fuu! What a joke!¡± Spoke Serena.


    ¡°Hehehe, as expected from our class idiot!¡± Said the real class¡¯ idiot.


    ¡°All right all right. I¡¯m an idiot¡± I sighed while putting my hands in the air as a sign of defeat. ¡°Her complexion has become better huh?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, I¡¯ve already used another three ¡°Minor Heal¡± on her. At this rate we wouldn¡¯t even need to ask the other¡¯s for help!¡± Beamed Dorothy. ¡°She should be somewhat healed tomorrow morning if I just continued using this skill repeatedly until then¡±


    ¡°Dorothy, don¡¯t push yourself¡­¡± Spoke Serena in a worried tone.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t¡± Replied Dorothy.


    ¡°All right then! Let¡¯s have a feast as a celebration!¡± As expected from our class¡¯ idiot. He got the mood going.


    That night no one slept. We all chatted all night and got our personalities before this all happened. We all chatted of what we would do once we all reached high levels.


    We also found out that each person has different shop points required for different skills. For example Bryan can buy skills that are used physically and yet need to use more shop points on magic related skills while Dorothy is the complete opposite. The prices of the skills also increase by 10 percent each time you bought a different skill. You could also upgrade each skill up to 10 levels. Even if you level up, it seems you still won¡¯t get shop points. The only way to earn them is probably to kill monsters.


    While we all continued our conversation with the occasional laugh, Dorothy never forgot the primary reason we all stayed up. She kept using the ¡°Minor Heal¡± skill and leveled up by another two levels. She then placed all her bonus stat points on the magic power stat so Stella¡¯s rate of recovery was even faster than expected. In the morning Stella woke up muddle headed.


    ¡°Guugh¡­¡±


    ¡°Stella!¡±


    I was the first to noticed and pounced. While I was still in midair I was hit in the side by Christophe. Although it was because I was so emotional because of the situation, everyone looked at me as if I was an insect. Heck, Dorothy and Serena even spat on the ground.


    ¡°Was my method of teaching incorrect¡± Stella mumbled to herself as she shook her head ¡°No, I guess people are born with innate personalities that can¡¯t be removed¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    I knew I was partly at fault for them thinking of me that way. In the past I might¡¯ve read a couple of certain magazines in school. But isn¡¯t their way their treating me just wrong?


    For the next couple of minutes, I tried to explain the misunderstanding. Realizing that the conversation was going nowhere, I switched the topic and explained everything to Stella from the beginning.If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.


    ¡°I see¡­ stat points huh?¡± Mumbled Stella as she placed her hand on her still bandaged forehead.


    ¡°Teacher, what stats did you get¡± Asked Christophe


    ¡°Well, let¡¯s see¡­¡± After looking at the air for a moment, Stella spoke. ¡°Just the same as Dorothy, though I¡¯m slightly higher than her in all stats¡±


    This news made Dorothy dejected, making her smile wryly as she used another ¡°Minor Heal¡± skill on Stella.


    ¡°Heh~ then what about your shop points?¡± This time I was the one that asked.


    After a few seconds Stella replied.


    ¡°I have high affinity for magic related skills. Though I can¡¯t say the same for the physical related ones¡±


    After telling me that, I gave her the food given yesterday evening. At first she hesitated to eat it and suggested that we just take ask for another one since it was cold. But after we all explained that she needs to get as much energy as she can right away. She ate the food reluctantly and promised us that she will eat yet another meal when the food for breakfast was given.


    Just when we all had a peace of mind, sounds of crying, shouting and footstep echoed from the hallway all the way to our room.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to go check¡± Spoke Bryan


    ¡°No¡± I shook my head ¡°No matter how I look at this. It¡¯s not normal¡±


    With furrowed eyebrows Bryan asked. ¡°Then what do you suggest?¡±


    ¡°I suggest we all check it out except for Stella and Dorothy. If we are really transported in another world then it wouldn¡¯t be impossible if we were attacked by monsters. Besides¡­¡± With sweat beading down on my forehead I continued ¡°This is a good chance to level up right? We can¡¯t just let Dorothy be the one to level up now can we?¡±


    Just when Stella was about to open her mouth, I immediately ran down the hallway towards where the noise was loudest.


    Most of the other students should have no means to fight back right now¡­ Only those who didn¡¯t buy the ¡°Minor Heal¡± skill can afford to buy the combat orientated ones.


    All the way outside, students and even the faculty members of the school ran in the opposite direction I was running to.


    After reaching the door outside, what greeted me was a battle between greed and survival. The fight was currently at a stalemate, with their side slowly getting the upper hand. On the ground corpses of humans and goblins alike had frozen arrows poking on their body, burning, crushed, pierced, etc. littered the school ground.


    The monsters they were fighting were a large group of goblins wearing nothing but rags and using branches as makeshift weapons while the people on our side just used their hands, knives that probably taken from the kitchen, and magic. When a goblin falls, those that use nothing but their hands usually takes the goblin¡¯s weapon and use them because of their longer reach. Though some of them don¡¯t since it seems they took weaponless skills. I should probably add that those who used magic, could only cast a few spells before retreating with bated breaths. It seems that the usage of skills espeecially magic costs a lot of stamina.


    Although the students and teachers who are currently fighting with the goblins have little to no cooperation, the goblins were even more so as some of them even hit their allies when they try to escape.


    ¡°Gray!¡± shouted Christophe as they run towards me.


    ¡°Listen, you¡¯ve guys read a couple of novels right? In a society filled with danger, what would the leaders do? Wouldn¡¯t they turn their rule into dictatorship?¡± I didn¡¯t even let them open their mouth as I continued explaining ¡°If we get strong and earn some merits. We probably won¡¯t be treated like losers then¡±


    Although they seem to be hesitating, it seems my persuasion had some effect. Looking towards the side, now our defeat is becoming more obvious.


    ¡°Come on, let¡¯s join them. We¡¯ll lose at this point. Besides, isn¡¯t this a good chance to level up and earn some shop points?¡±


    Before Christophe, Serena and Bryan could speak, I continued talking.


    ¡°¡­Fine¡±


    Finally with some hesitation, Chris was the first to give up.


    ¡°All right all right¡±


    Bryan and Serena did not speak but merely nodded their head, showing their agreement with resolution in their faces.


    After nodding my head twice, we then ran and headed towards the battlefield and picked our skill.


    ¡°Are you sure you are buying the skill ¡®Body enhancement¡¯ for 100 shop points?¡± Asked the system in a womanly voice.


    ¡°Yes¡±


    The moment I said that, information was transmitted to my brain. I didn¡¯t feel any pain, but the feeling of something invading your body is quite unpleasant.


    It seemed, the three of them also bought the skills they wanted. With thumping hearts we then headed towards one of the nearest weapon available. The moment I took a nearby meter long branch and was about to look at what the others picked, a goblin jumped towards me wielding a slightly smaller branch of mine.


    Dodging to the left, I then quickly hit him at the side of the side of the head while activating my skill. The moment the wooden club hit his skull, the sound of something cracking caused the other nearby goblins to notice. With angry shouts they then pounced.


    ¡°Damn¡±


    Preparing to run away, an unexpected savior then appeared.


    ¡°Taunt!¡±


    The moment these words were released, every goblin in a 10 meter radius then ran towards a shocked Bryan. Running to the side with the goblins in tow, knife after knife were then thrown by Serena. I didn¡¯t know where she took it from, probably from some of the dead corpses of the students or teachers. Wow, this girl is scary.


    ¡°Gray, what are you doing?! Kill them!¡± shouted Bryan


    ¡°All right! Coming!¡±


    With the help of the ¡°Body Enhancement¡± skill, I ran towards a nearby frenzied goblin and hit him at the back of the head. After he fell with a thud, I then ran to my next target. After half a minute all the goblins that were chasing Bryan were all killed by Serena, me, and a few others who joined.


    ¡°Gueeeh!¡±


    ¡°What the hell¡­¡±


    Our side was now on the winning side. Goblins began fleeing from a blonde youth wielding a kitchen knife. The moment one fell down, another would be targeted. This caused the goblins to push the others to the side and trampled those who tripped, hoping that they would slow the monster down.


    After all the goblins reached the forest, the youth then sighed and waved towards us with a beaming smile. Blood covering his face and clothes.


    ¡°Hey guys, I leveled up!¡± shouted Christophe as he laughed and ran towards our direction.


    ¡°What was that¡­¡± Asked Serena with a sweat filled face.


    ¡°What was what?¡± Asked Christophe back while tilting his head.


    ¡°You know¡­ that¡± Replied Serena.


    ¡°Huh? Oh you mean that¡± With a face stuck with realization he continued ¡°It¡¯s called ¡®Blood Trance¡¯. You guys should buy it next¡±


    ¡°Blood trance?¡± Repeated Bryan


    If I remember correctly, after searching the catalog last night, ¡®Blood Trance¡¯ is an expensive skill costing 20,000 shop points. Though it differs from person to person, being able to buy one with only 100 shop points is quite a blessing.


    ¡°*whistles* quite a nice skill you got there¡±


    ¡°Hehehe, thanks, your ¡°Taunt¡± skill is quite good too¡±


    Even though we were having a laidback conversation, our surroundings are filled with corpses and pained cries. It¡¯s not like we¡¯re cold hearted or anything since we ignored them. It¡¯s just that you know¡­ being treated terribly by others and whatnot made us apathetic towards them I guess. Just so you know, it¡¯s not like we¡¯re like this to everyone in school, there are some exceptions. Besides if they were in our positions, I bet they would¡¯ve done the same. I know it''s not normal, but that''s just how we are.


    ¡°What are you doing?! Carry the injured inside the building now!¡±


    The president, with a furious face shouted as he looks in our direction while a young woman with long black hair just smiled in an easygoing manner.


    ¡°All right, I guess we should help¡±


    ¡°¡°¡°Mmmm¡±¡±¡±


    It seems that things would be quite troublesome from now on¡­
