The bell rang, ending the exciting conversation between Luky, Bima, and Dito. All three walked towards class with different energy. Bima and Dito still look like they are walking on the clouds, their pockets feel heavy by an envelope containing one hundred million rupiah. While Luky stepped with full confidence, his mind had mapped his first business steps thanks to the basic business strategy skills he had just gotten.
When they entered the classroom, all eyes were on them. Whispering about Luky's luxury cars and giving money to his best friend has spread like a virus. The atmosphere of the morning class was full of tense and curious silence.
Clarissa, who sat in the front row, looked at Luky with a glazed view. There are regrets, shame, and a little wish. He tried to give a smile, but Luky deliberately ignored it, making his face turn red and crushed.
Kevin, who sat behind, growled softly. He threw the paper at Luky, but Luky, with a premium fighting reflex (base) that was integrated with his instinct, caught the paper with fast and smooth movements without looking. He squeezed it and threw it into the trash in the corner of the class, as if it was only a mosquito that was annoying. The movement was so fast and full of confidence, making several other students amazed and made Kevin furious.
Mathematics teacher, Mr. Rudi, entered the class. "Good morning, children. Today we will have a sudden quiz to test your understanding of the differential material we learned last week."
Collective groans filled the room. Only a handful of students looked ready, including Kevin not because he was smart, but because he often cheated and Anya Putri who was indeed a genius.
Luky just smiled faintly. The premium academic intelligence skills (basic) that he got after embarrassing Kevin in the previous lesson made him feel more than ready.

"The question consists of 5 essays. 30 minutes. Start!" exclaimed Mr. Rudi.
The class was immediately quiet, only the sound of the friction of the pen on paper. Kevin immediately tried to cheat towards Anya, but Anya coldly covered the answer.
Luky took a deep breath. His eyes swept all the questions. Like magic, the solution for every problem immediately appears in his mind clearly and in detail. His hands danced quickly on paper, write down the steps that are even more elegant and detailed than taught in the book.
In less than 10 minutes, Luky was finished. He stood up and walked to the teacher's desk.
"It's finished, sir?" asked Mr. Rudi, surprised.
"Yes, sir," Luky answered politely as he handed over the paper.
Kevin looked at him with a look of disbelief and angry. Even Anya, who is usually the first to be finished, is still working on the last problem. He raised his gaze, and for the first time, there was a shock and real interest in his eyes that were usually cold when looking at Luky.
Luky returned to his seat calmly, leaving the whole class in admiration and surprise. Bima and Dito gave him a smile proudly.
Shortly after the time runs out, Mr. Rudi immediately checked Luky paper in front of the class. His expression changed from curiosity to amazement.
"Outside ... ordinary," the gums were hard enough to hear the whole class. "Luky, it's not only your answer 100% correct, but how you are resolved for question number 5 ... it's very brilliant, not even taught in the high school curriculum. This is the level of understanding of S2 students!"
The whole class exploded in a roar. Kevin slammed his pen until it broke, his face was reddish with shame and frustration. Clarissa looked at Luky with a sense of regret that was so deep that her tears almost dripped. Anya kept her quiz that was still one of the questions, looking at Luky with a burning curiosity. He no longer saw him as a strange person, but as a puzzle that was very interesting to solve.

When the break arrived, Luky walked to the canteen. He doesn't need to queue anymore. People unconsciously give him a way. When he paid with a one -thousand thousands of money and said "just keep the return", the atmosphere is getting more excited.
He bought three premium fruit juices and looked for Bima and Dito. On the way, a girl with short pieces of bob and big eyes shining almost crashed into her.
"Excuse me!" exclaimed the girl, looked up. His face immediately radiant when recognizing Luky. "Oh, Luky! Hey, it's really cool in class! I glared at Pak Rudi to praise you!"
Luky smiled. (This is Nina, first -class younger junior under her. She is known as a cheerful, innocent, and kind girl at school. Unlike the others, Nina always greets her kindly even when she is still "Luky the poor".
"Thank you, Nina. Where are you going?" Luky asked kindly.
"I want to go to the library. There is a task. But ... the juice looks really good huh?" He said, glancing at the juice in Luky's hand with sparkling eyes like a child.
Luky laughed. Of the three juices he bought, he gave one to Nina. "This is for you."
"Seriously? Wow, really thank you, Luky! You're so kind!" Nina said with a sincere and dazzling big smile, receiving the juice with glelap. "Good luck always! I have to go first! See you!"
The girl then jogged leaving her, occasionally looking and waving. His sincere joy feels like a refreshing morning dew for Luky, who is getting used to the full gaze of the agenda of the people around him.
At that time, Luky saw Kevin and some of his men blocking Nina at the end of the corridor, seemed to try to disturb or ask something about Luky. Nina's face looked a little scared.
Without thinking, Luky walked over to them. "There is a problem, Kevin?" he asked in a flat but full voice.
Kevin turned his head, his face wrinkled. "Just chatting with a junior class, is there a problem?"
"There is no problem. But he already said he had to go to the library. So, if there is no important business, let him go," Luky said, his position was blocking Nina.
Nina looked at Luky with gratitude and admiration.
Kevin wanted to be angry, but seeing Luky's cold gaze and remembering previous events, he chose to discourage him. "Hmph! Bored me," he grumbled then left with his men.
"Thank you, Luky," Nina whispered. "They asked about you. I said I didn't know anything."
"No need to thank you. Next time if they bother, immediately tell me or to the teacher, okay?" Luky's message.
Nina nodded enthusiastically before finally running to the library.
The brief meeting left a deep impression for Luky. In the midst of all pride and falsehood, Nina's sincerity was very valuable. He also realized that his presence could now endanger the people around him, and that means he must be more vigilant and stronger.
He found Bima and Dito and gave their juice. While drinking juice, Luky said, "Tomorrow, we don't go to school. We will start our business tour."
"You mean?" asked Dito.
"We will travel to several startups and small companies. See opportunities, observe, and may ... we will make our first acquisition."
Bima's eyes and Dito sparkled. Their real adventure will begin soon.
