Mr. Jones , the instructor looked at the boy who had just stood up and wondered but his anger peaked.'Who dared challenge me , doesn't he know I can burn him to crisps .Or does he think his fat mass can insulate against my heat,' he thought to himself .
He furrowed his brows,eyes narrowed , clenched his fists. The heat that was increasing in the room started to subdue not because it was going away but because the heat now had a target , Bob Stokes.
Bob Stokes was a significantly overweight dude with a pudgy stomach ,a round face, and short light brown hair. He was putting on an oversized unflattering t-shirt with a crown design and the words 'I'm the MC'
Bob was now sweating profusely due to the immense heat being directed at him. You would think he was a squirter using her new well oiled sex machine because of how wet he had become.
"How dare you think of yourself as the MC aah, mr. Main character?" his voice erupted with rage , each word sharp enough to carve stone. The way his teeth clenched around syllables made the room freeze as he took slow steps towards the one who thought this was all about him . The one dare to address disrespect to the gods , yet they are the reason he had a chance to be born.
He reached and leaned close to Bob looking straight in his eyes as though he was looking at his very soul ,his breath hot and uneven. Then with a sudden roar he slammed his fist, his voice cracking like split timber , "ANSWER ME."
The whole class was on tension what has really befallen , Bob to say such uncensored comment . Okay ,he said it but why did he stand up no one would have known he had said it .Such were the thought in the minds of almost the whole class .They knew Jones for being being a staunch believer in the gods since everyone said they saved his life but no one knew how.
Bob in a shaky voice that consisted of ninety percent fear and ten percent sound open his mouth ,"I know the one who said it. "
What!!! The class was now even more surprised they initially thought that Bob was a brave one who wanted to farm aura points and forgot Mr.Jones could burn every hair on his body .
But now they realised he was actually just a coward with loose lips. What kind of fear would make you swim from a beach to a a yacht just to throw someone into a shark's mouth. Why go through all the trouble
"Go on show me the person ," Jones asked but now sounding calmer.Bob without hesitation lifted his right arm lazily and pointed to the person seated right behind him.
Everyone knew the person he had pointed , he had always been a defiant fellow. He was more of a joker and often are the times when he was termed as lazy due to his lack of interest in the surrounding. He had numerous friends but his was most known for his physique that he always hid behind cotton and polyester during class time .
"He said it, not me sir ," Bob continued to explain in a fearful way.
Before shifting focus to the real deal, Jones looked at Bob one last time and let out a disappointment speech, " I hate cowards."
"Now you mister who do think you are to offend the gods do you know how miserable your life would have been if not because of them granting us the power to fight for ourselves." asked Jones .
Looking at Vince , the one who had caused this whole situation in the class. A young man who was seated casually exuding a warm and approachable charm. His light gray tshirt and pair of dark brown pants complemented his relaxed demeanor and simplicity. The question running in everyone's mind was 'How is he able to keep calm?' even Jones questioned his power.
If only they knew what was going through his mind, they would know that he was not actually calm , his heart was beating faster than a standup comedian's punchline delivery on a roll. "Well , Mr. Jones it's not like am not grateful of the gods. I just happen to believe in science sir." explained Vince still keeping his panic under wraps.
"Now use SCIENCE and explain this, " then Mr. Jones made a dragon of fire micro in size but the heat it was giving off was five times the normal heat they had felt.
They were all so sensitive since they had not yet awakened their abilities, though they were still stronger than grown up human before the time of abilities. Mr. Jones extinguished the dragon and waited for the reply.
"Well... aah,"
"Well what , ?" Jones interrupted as if impatient of what the kid was to say
"I would call it EVOLUTION, "added Vince .
