*****Mark, “_”Mark again, “_”He couldn’t react for a moment after hearing the bully’s order, but then suddenly, his lips curled up and then “Hahahaha!!”He burst into a peal of crazy laughter, startling everybody badly.Mark laughed crazily for a long time as though he had just heard the greatest joke of all time, making even the bully himself not know how to react for a moment.“What was funny?” The bully finally inquired darkly after Mark was done, but then Mark gazed at him with a smiling face.“You are joking, right? Your joke was very funny! Hahahaha!”Mark laughed hard again, with drops of tears even falling from his eyes.He only stopped after a moment before he eventually shook his head, and then he walked passed the bully, chuckling again.Everybody was thunderstruck and wasn’t even able to react till now, realizing that Mark had actually just mocked one of the greatest tyrants in First City.Their mouths opened with shock as though they wanted to swallow flies
*****“I ask, what’s going on here?” The sweet melodious voice that could melt the heart of anybody and everybody who heard it sounded again and then finally, everybody in the classroom understood what had happened.Their homeroom teacher was in the class.All the boys who had been seated hurriedly composed themselves before glancing in her direction and their hearts began to beat in a disorderly manner once they saw her.As for the group of bullies, especially their leader, a look of helplessness first appeared in his eyes before turning into deep fury, then he glared fiercely at Mark with killing intent, acting as though he would have shot him to death if he had laser beams in his eyes.After a moment, however, the deep fury was gone and replaced with a sheepish and flattering smile, and then the bully hurriedly turned his attention in the direction where the voice had originated.It belonged to an otherworldly beautiful lady whose age did not seem to be beyond twenty-two to
*****“Is that not our school’s pauper, whose girlfriend had just cheated upon a few days ago and he was still the one beaten because of it?”“Wow!!! Wasn’t it said that he might not return to our school again from then on, how could he still be here?”“What do you expect from a down-to-earth pauper? They used to know no pride, hahaha.”“What a shameless fool. But guy, look at him, all the wounds on his body seemed to have disappeared, where had they vanished to?”“Who cares about where they had disappeared? I just know that he is a shameless fool and a disappointment to the male world.”As it was the end of the first lecture of that day, there were now students filling the school’s premises that had been devoid of any, when Mark had just gotten to school the other time.All the present students were currently pointing at Mark and gossiping about him in a hushed manner, most of them with mockery tones.Honestly, they might not have even noticed Mark this quickly in the first p
***** “Please, have your seat, mister Mark.” As soon as they were inside the teacher’s office, a not particularly big office that despite its minimal decoration, was very neat and beautiful, the beautiful and elegant teacher gestured at the seat in front of her desk and echoed with her beautiful melodious voice. Mark nodded his head, then not feeling anything special about being in the office that every single male student and teacher of the school had been dying to enter since the first day teacher Sharon began to work there, as it would signify that they had won and taken the lead over all the other male students and teachers in the school, the reason behind the entire students’ unwillingness at Mark’s getting invited to the beauty’s office, Mark gently took his seat. Honestly, had it been in the past, probably some days ago that Mark got invited like this, he’d have become the happiest man on earth and he would have even become proud of himself, feeling everybody’s envy and ange
*****“I…”Mark’s mouth opened and a spooked expression appeared on his face, looking at the startled faces of the people who had been doing everything to plaster their ears on the door from which he had just exited before he got out.After remaining stunned for a second, Mark bowed his head. “Good afternoon, teachers.”“I…”“We…”“Ah…”The group of male teachers became awkward after they returned to their senses, and then they smiled bitterly, feeling greatly embarrassed that a little student such as Mark had caught them trying to eavesdrop on what he and another person were discussing.“Hello student Mark. I… I was just trying to clean this wall that I noticed was dirty.”A teacher hurriedly took out his napkin and began to seriously wipe the wall that he had been loitering beside.“This…” Mark was stunned.Before he could open his mouth, however, the other teachers had opened their mouths.“I realized that the paint of this door is starting to peel off, so I came to con
***** The bullies’ expressions were stiff at this moment, watching the old man who had just busted what they loved doing the most even before they managed to begin. The gang of bullies cast menacing glares toward the elderly man with their demeanor suggesting that they might inflict harm upon him. Meanwhile, Mark gradually eased the tension in his body, which had tensed up in anticipation of Marcus's actions. He breathed a sigh of internal relief and then redirected his full attention to the person who had just forced his way into the restroom. It was an old man in faded clothes. Despite his clothing being worn and washed countless times, he still maintained a tidy appearance, and he was currently holding a mop and its bucket. The old man was a janitor in First City, and he was responsible for maintaining the cleanliness in the restrooms near Mark’s classroom. Back to the present, the group of bullies continued glaring ferociously at the old man for a while before suddenly, the
***** Having no idea about what the bullies were planning, otherwise, he would have rushed back to warn the old man before doing everything in his power to stop the group of bullies, Mark, who had just exited the restroom was busily lost in his thoughts at this moment, or rather, he was busy communicating with the system. ‘So, you’re telling me that my strength had increased this massively by just spending 50FS points?’ [That’s right, host.] ‘Wow!’ Mark was really shocked. He couldn’t help but clench his fists for the umpteenth time again and the moment he felt the busting and destructive strength that was brimming and coursing through his body, making him feel as though he could literally destroy everything in his front with just a throw of fist, Mark swallowed. “This is really great,” he mumbled to himself before informing the system to bring out his interface. The subsequent moment, a screen pulled out and unfolded from his point of view. #####[The Host’s current
***** Hearing the loud commotion that could not be ignored even if he wished to, Mark couldn’t help but turn his gaze in the direction it had originated, and instantly, he saw almost a group of almost or more than a hundred of students clustered together like bees, appearing extremely excited and agitated, They were presently gaping at something and acting as though they were seeing a real-life treasure that could grant them immortality and make them the wealthiest person in the world. Mark was immediately curious about the vehicle that had caused this commotion, as he was also a lover of luxurious vehicles himself, despite not having the money, capacity, or ability to own any before. He wished to see the car that got all these students acting like barbarians. Although he was extremely curious, he had zero intention of joining his fellow students, knowing that it would only be him seeking to be turned into a refuse dumb that would be insulted anyhow. For this reason, Mark only gaz
