Chapter 257 257: No.3 High school
"Are you ready, young master?"
Alfred spoke.
Caleb scratched his head awkwardly. "Please, don't call me young master. It reminds me of something. Address me with anything else but that."
Who would have thought that he would be called a young master in his life!? As an avid reader of books. He doesn't want to be categorized into the same category as those unique creatures.
Alfred looked at Caleb for a moment before nodding. He didn't really know what got to Adam's head today. Doesn't he always address him that way? Why would change now? However, as a qualified butler, he only needs to follow Adam's order.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Come..." Caleb took a fighting stance. They are currently in a green field. There was nothing but grasses for 1 km. It was a dedicated area for sparring sessions with the guards.
Alfred smiled a little. Then he vanished into his place. His silhouette appeared behind Caleb. His hands in a knife gesture as waved it forward to Caleb's neck.
'Should I dodge it or not?' Caleb sighed inwardly. Alfred was just too slow in his perception. However, if he dodges it.
Won't Alfred become suspicious of him? After all, every time the original owner of the body and Alfred spar. The original owner of the body couldn't even for five seconds. Yes, that's how trashy the original Adam is. With an inward sigh, Caleb endured the hellish wait. Alfred's attack was like a snail! 'Or my reaction speed was just too fast now that I became a Tier 6?'
What should I do?
Alfred looked at his hand in a chopping motion that was about to land on Adam with a disappointed expression. Disappointed in himself because he couldn't make Adam improve, even after a lot of sparring.
Just as he was about to give his advice on what Adam did wrong. He was startled as Adam suddenly tripped, causing his hand chop attack to miss.
"Ohhh..." Caleb landed on his butt and feigned a pained expression. Of course, it was a deliberate action.
"Well, that's unexpected..."
Alfred stopped his attack that hit the empty air and retracted his hand. He was quite sure that it was a certain hit.
Caleb stood up, showed an embarrassed expression, and patted his butt. Then he looked at the butler and chuckled: "Excuse my clumsiness."
Just like that, the sparring continued, with Caleb losing balance and tripping most of the time to 'accidentally' dodge Alfred's attack.
'This? Is this really happening?' Alfred looked listlessly at the foot that he used to kick Adam. Only for Adam to lose his balance again and dodge. If it was only twice, or thrice, he would only think that it was coincidence.
But it happened six times! This is abnormal!
Alfred then noticed a smile on Caleb's face and he couldn't help but think. 'Could it be... Young master Adam is actually hiding his strength all this time?'
"Do you want to continue?"
Hearing this, Alfred shook his head and asked speechlessly. "Why won't you tell your family?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Caleb shrugged.
Sooner or later, his strength would be revealed. After experiencing the last world. He tasted the sweetness of the benefits of being prioritized with resources. He knew that he needed to show his genius if he wanted to be valued. On this current Earth, he doesn't need to be wary of the government or the ruling class. The upper echelons in this world genuinely hope that geniuses and outstanding people will rise in their population due to the bigger threat outside the planet. The death of geniuses is always a huge loss for humanity. After all, they are currently at the bottom of the rank in the Universe.
Furthermore, why would he need to be afraid? He was a Tier 6 Executioner Shadow. Even if the three people that unlocked their 3rd Gene Lock in the Philippines come. He was confident that he could escape as long as they were not as perverted as Michael.
...
Caleb rubbed his eyes two times and looked at the car in front of him. 'Is this Batman's car or what?'
In front of him, like a black bullet with wheels, low to the ground and super cool. The body is all tough and armored, making it look like a superhero on wheels. The front has a pointy shape, like a knight's helmet, making it instantly recognizable. There are these awesome fins and gadgets all over it. The windows are tinted, giving it a mysterious vibe.
Alfred was already inside waiting for him in the passenger seat. Caleb didn't hesitate to enter the car... When his hand made contact with the black metal. He felt the coldness get transmitted to his skin. 'Cool...' Caleb whistled inwardly. Then he sat beside Alfred and made himself comfortable.
"How fast?" Alfred asked briefly.
Caleb seemed to think for a moment before grinning. "Max..."
Following that, Alred started the car. The black car's engine trembled. Then it made a whoozing sound and zoomed through the acres of land. It didn't take long before it reached the gate. Caleb, inside the car, watched as his surroundings almost turned into a blur. Of course, he could still perceive their direction and things as the car passed due to his reaction speed.
Thirty minutes later, Caleb looked reluctantly at the black car that had gradually disappeared from his view. He sighed for a second and gathered his bearings. Then he looked at the gate in front of him.
No. 3 High School. The top 3 high schools in the City of San Fernando. He only managed to get admitted to the school because of his family connection. Yes, it was the famous backdoor. 'High school life again. Damn...'
Fortunately, he wasn't here to study math, science, English, economy, or whatnot. No.3 High school doesn't have cultural classes because it's a genetic warrior high school! The principal of the school was said to be an Extraordinary Realm that fused the genes of a Legendary Roc as his 3rd Gene Slot!
The Roc is a master of the skies, showcasing exceptional flight capabilities. Its massive wings allow it to soar high above the earth and cover vast distances. As a bird of prey, the Roc is said to have incredibly sharp eyesight, enabling it to spot its prey from great distances while flying high in the sky. Legends suggest that the Roc emits a deafening and terrifying screech, which can be heard from afar. This sound is not only a means of communication but also a weapon to intimidate or disorient its adversaries. However, what it was really known for was its flying speed and dangerous wind abilities!
