The Extra's Dominance

July 6, 2080.

Monday, 10:00 AM.

...

[Raven's POV]

I already finished my daily morning routine, including the light trainings I do every morning.

Especially my daily morning hygiene...

So right now, I'm on my way to the classroom.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

And while I was walking...

"This is weird..."

I mumbled as soon as I noticed that there's this weird silence following me.

It was so silent around me that I can hear my own footsteps.

-Kyuu..?

Even Yuki, who's resting on top of my head, noticed it too.

It's not like that there's no people around me, I saw quite a lot in my way...

It's just like they become silent whenever I get near them.

Also, they're looking at me more weirdly than usual today!

'Is there something on my face...?'

'Except from handsomeness of course.'

I thought.

[You shameless bastard, there's nothing on your face.]

Then Sariel appeared and replied to me.

"Then, what's the problem, why people keep looking at me like that?"

I asked Sariel.

[...]

But he didn't say anything in response!

So I squinted my eyes and looked at the floating transparent window in front of me.

"What do you know?"

Then I asked him.

[...]

And Sariel still didn't answer!

Him remaining silent just convinced me that he definitely know something!

"What the fuck are you hiding?"

I asked Sariel again, now in a pretty serious voice.

[It's nothing!]

This time, Sariel responded, but I call his answer bullshit.

'Fucker, you don't sound convincing at all!'

I exclaimed to Sariel inside my head.

There's quite some students and staffs around.

And I don't want to appear like I'm shouting or talking all by myself.

I don't want to be nicknamed the crazy dog.

Anyway, coming back to Sariel...

[You'll know about it sooner or later anyway!]

He still doesn't want to tell me what he knows.

'If I'll know it sooner or later anyway, why not just tell me now?'

I asked him.

[If I tell you, then it's not gonna be interesting anymore!]

And Sariel exclaimed like what he said is plausible even though it sounds like dogshit to me.

'If it's something that endangers my well being, I'm sure Sariel would immediately tell me about it.'

I thought.

Actually, I can just read Sariel's mind and all of this would be done.

But Sariel and I got an agreement that we should give each other privacy.

So except we really need it and there's no choice, we wouldn't read each others' minds and thoughts.

"Fine, don't say it if you don't want to.'

So in the end, I decided to just let it go and not pry about it anymore longer.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

Instead, I increased my walking pace to get to the classroom as fast as possible.

'If I get there, I can just ask Adelle, Alec, or Blake.'

'I'm sure they'll know something about it even a little.'

I thought while on my way, all the people I encounter still looks at me funny.

But I decided to ignore them as I don't really care much to begin with.

***

Inside the classroom of [CLASS A-1].

Everyone is chilling and talking to their own circle of friends.

Including Blake, Alec, Eve, Adelle, Curtis, and Aoi.

They're all sitting near to each other just like the usual, and a small and peaceful conversation broke out among them from time to time.

And while everyone in the room is having a peaceful and relaxing morning...

Swoosh-

Click-

The classroom's door in the front suddenly opened.

Tap.

And an individual with an overwhelming presence came in!

It was of course, Raven!

Though in reality, the presence Raven is releasing isn't actually that strong.

But because of the image of what he did in the assessment test were carved in the heads of everyone in the room...

Raven appears to be a giant that entered a house full of dwarves!

"He's unnecessarily hard not to notice huh."

Eve mumbled when she saw that almost everyone is looking at Raven.

And after that, she just went back to her phone as she was reading a novel.

"What are you reading, Eve?"

And on the other hand, Curtis don't really care about Raven's arrival as he's only focused at Eve.

It's the same for Blake, Aoi, and Adelle.

They already got used to Raven's strong presence, so they just continued doing whatever they are doing.

Meanwhile Alec...

"..."

He's silently holding the right side of his torso!

Alec is still not completely healed yet, and when he saw Raven, his injury just ached!

And it was then, Raven's eyes shifted to them.

And immediately after that...

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Raven walked to them, ignoring the silence surrounding the room.

"Hey you guys..."

Raven called out everyone as soon as he reached Alec and the others.

The others looked at him. Except from Eve and Curtis of course.

But they're listening, just in case Raven is about to say something important.

"We were given access to enter the private dungeons owned by Lunar!"

And their decision appeared to be right as Raven just gave them a super important news!

And Alec and the others were shocked by his words!

"Are you sure? We didn't receive any news about it."

Eve asked Raven.

Raven looked at her and he nodded his head confidently.

"I stumbled across Sir Kendy on my way here, and he just left an ongoing important meeting because he was bored."

Raven said, his statement contained a lot of unnecessary details, but no one really care about it.

"And he said that our request to access the Lunar's dungeons was discussed in the meeting."

"Sir Kendy said that because all of us are important talents... Most of the officials agreed to give us permission."

"And he said that we should receive a news about it today."

Then Raven explained to everyone.

After that, Alec and the others looked at each other.

Then immediately, a determined expression appeared on their faces!

"Oh, but there's one condition."

But then, Raven spoke again.

"What's the condition?"

Curtis asked Raven with a frown.

Then with a frown too...

"We are required to enter as a group."

Raven answered Curtis' question.

The others have different reactions about what he just said.

But at the end of the day....

It's not that a big of a problem so no one spoke a word about it.

"And here I thought you're gonna ask about the article about you online."

Then randomly, Blake suddenly talked!

And at his words, Raven's head immediately snapped at Blake's direction.

"What did you just said?"

Then he asked with a frown!
