“I guess that the next time we see, I’ll be an official student of Scholar Academy and I’ll have no choice but to refer to you as Sir,” Alexander said to the principal.The principal chuckled.“A student for only a day. What a truly funny circumstance, but regardless of how short-lived it’s going to be, it’ll be a pleasure having you as one of our students” the principal said.“Thank you” Alexander replied and then both men bid each other goodbye with the bow of their heads.Alexander walked up to Alexa who was waiting for him at the door and then they left the office.“You’re taking your leave?” Gift asked Alexander the moment she saw him. “That’s right. Thanks to you, Mr. Dave, and let me not forget Alexa, I’ll be able to achieve my goal” Alexander said and Gift smiled.“That’s good to hear,” she said.Alexander looked at the beautiful woman from head to toe and with a smirk, he said “Don’t forget about what I told you”Gift’s eyes widened then she, who hadn’t forgotten what he sai
After filling in all the documents, Alexander arranged them properly and then stretched them to Alexa who became a little surprised.“That was… Umm,” she scratched the side of her head in bewilderment and said “That was fast. Way faster than I expected”Alexander shrugged.“We’re on limited time so I had to be a little faster than normal” he replied.Alexa took the documents from him and scanned through them, trying to see if there was any error, but to her surprise, they were perfectly filled.She looked at Alexander with confusion and said “A little faster than normal? That’s understating it. I mean, anybody else who would have tried filling this like you did would have faced a great challenge”“I’m a fast writer but that aside, can you start doing what you’re supposed to?” Alexander gestured at the documents.“Oh, yeah. Let me just go ahead and use this. Too bad I can’t be as fast as you or we would have finished this a lot sooner” Alexa said as she held the documents in one hand a
It turned out to be a long wait that lasted forty-five minutes.To kill the time, Alexa played games on her phone whereas Alexander closed his eyes and meditated. He also conversed with the system as the more he used it, the faster it evolved.Twenty minutes into the wait, both of them took a break from what they were doing because the secretary from Coker Wake High School called to inform Alexa that she had gotten all of Alexander’s records and was waiting for the principal’s arrival and approval of the transfer.During the call, she also commented on how outstanding Alexander’s grades were, making Alexa more impressed by the young multimillionaire.The last thing the secretary did before ending the call was say how unfortunate it was that she didn’t know about such a brilliant student until that moment.She talked about how great it would have been to have had Alexander represent the school in academic competitions, but for whatever reason, his name was never mentioned as a potentia
The other registration office staff members all looked at Alexander confusedly.They didn’t know who he was talking to, so all they could do was stare and wonder if the young multimillionaire, who seemed calm and respectful at first, was in fact a Chameleon.In essence, they wondered if their original assessment of him was wrong and he had always been a rude person to begin with. Or, the person he was on the phone with was someone who deserved every harsh word.Since their original impression of him was a positive one, their minds swayed towards that latter.“Alexa. Alexa” Cheryl called out in a whispering voice.Alexa looked at the annoying woman and made a gesture, asking her what she wanted. Cheryl pointed at Alexander and asked “What’s up with him? Who is he talking to like that?”Alexa looked at Alexander who was still going at it with the principal of Coker Wake High School, groaned, and then looked at Cheryl.“It’s a personal matter so it’s not my place to tell you,” Alexa sai
[Progress: 1%… 9%… 17%… 28%… 40%… 59%… 71%… 87%… 95%… 100%][Congratulations Mr. Alexander Curry, you have successfully transformed the feature ‘Skill Copy’ to ‘Skill Steal’ for a one-time-only use]Just then, another message appeared.[The god of Possession is pleased with Mr. Alexander Curry’s usage of the merit points to mimic an aspect of the gifted free possession slots][Mr. Alexander Curry has been rewarded with 20 Merit points][Total Merit points: 130][Please use wisely]Alexander read the message and smirked because phase one of his plan was complete.Phase two was coming up with the riddle to ask and after a split second of thinking, he had just the perfect one which was just in time because the voice of the principal regained his attention. Alexander interrupted the principal in the middle of what he was saying and asked “How can you throw a ball as hard as you can only to have it come back to you without it bouncing off of anything?”[“What?!”] “Lemme guess, you don’t
Inside one of the Coker Wake High School offices, the secretary who had transferred the call from her landline to the principal’s heard a very loud banging sound. She grimaced and hurriedly looked at the closed principal’s office door.“What was that?” She asked and then she heard the sound again.“That sounded like someone slamming the headset of a landline on itself. That doesn’t make any sense because why on earth would Mr. Jonas do something like that?” She said, scratching the side of her head in confusion.“I thought Mr. Jonas was on a call with a former student so what could have gotten him so angry that he decided to react in such a—?“ she asked herself but then jolted when she heard a different but just as alarming sound.It was the sound of the principal sweeping the things off his desk and all of them falling on the floor. “Just what the world is going on?!” The secretary said as she quickly stood up from her chair.She slowly walked up to the principal’s office door then
The principal panicked a little but he tried to control the situation.“Yes, I know that I’m the one who called but for some reason, I don’t remember why. Can you please tell me who I’m talking to so that maybe my memories of why will come back to me”[“The nerve you have to ask the person you offended with your call to tell you who they are when you haven’t revealed your identity yet. If this is some silly game then I’ll just end this call right—“]The principal who realized his mistake corrected it.He said “Sorry about that. My name is Jonas Wild and I’m the principal of Coker Wake High School which is where I’m making this call from”The person on the other end of the call groaned.[“So that’s your identity”] he said in a calmer voice which relieved the principal.“Yes it is, so can you tell me who I’m speaking to now?”[“My name is not important. All you need to know is that I work for the Dove family estate and I would like to know the purpose of your call”]The principal gulped
“What are you so happy about?” Alexa asked.Alexander looked at the woman who was still busy working on his enrollment and he chuckled.“Oh, it’s nothing. I’m just in a good mood all of a sudden”Alexa, who couldn’t believe what he just said after everything else she had heard him say on the call moments earlier, took a break from her work and looked at him with a raised eyebrow.“What?” Alexander asked.Alexa shrugged and went back to work, saying “You could have fooled me”Alexander grinned and then he cleared his throat.“Anyway, here’s your landline back,” he said and then stretched the headset to Alexa.Alexa looked at the thing he was giving her then she pointed at the main body of the landline with the back of her pen, saying “Help me keep it will you?”Alexander looked at what she just pointed at and smiled at the woman.“Sure thing,” he said then returned the headset to its right spot.Alexander returned his gaze to Alexa and asked “So now that you have everything you need, h
