The history teacher was extremely surprised by the President's appearance.
She couldn't fathom why such a distinguished personage would appear here.
"May I come in?"
Under the gaze of the history teacher and all the students, Eric asked the history teacher.
"Ah, of course."
The history teacher, recovering from her daze, quickly welcomed Eric inside.
Suppressing her inner excitement, she watched Eric with an eager gaze.
She was a loyal supporter of Eric and had even volunteered in the community, posting promotional materials for Eric's political campaign.
Although many people called him a dictator who controlled people's thoughts, she believed that only a god-like figure like him could lead America to greatness again!
She was a history teacher with a heroic view of history!
Heroes should lead the people!
After Eric entered, under the gaze of all the students in the class, he asked a student sitting in a back row, "Billy, may I have a word with you?"
Seeing Eric directly target the class's invisible student—Billy Batson—all the students, including the teacher, were stunned!
"Ms. Mooney, do you mind if I have a word with Billy?"
Eric asked the female teacher at the podium.
"No, of course not."
Teacher Mooney quickly replied to Eric.
"Billy, you go out first. The President wants to speak with you."
"Thank you, Ms. Mooney. It won't take long. He should be back by tomorrow noon."
Eric thanked Teacher Mooney.
Billy stood up under the gaze of all his classmates, his expression complex, and walked towards Eric.
He hadn't expected the other party to swagger in so brazenly and openly appear in his classroom.
He hadn't wanted to reveal his student identity, but he hadn't expected the other party to directly break the code of conduct he had set for himself.
Although being watched by classmates and becoming the focus of the class was somewhat pleasant.
Eric was about to lead Billy out of the classroom when he was suddenly stopped by Teacher Mooney.
"Mr. President, do you have anything you'd like to say to the students before you leave?"
Teacher Mooney looked at Eric with anticipation.
She hoped that a great person like Eric could give the children a lesson.
Even a very short lesson would be beneficial to the children.
She knew that children nowadays were rebellious, never listened to their parents, but regarded some superheroes as their idols.
As the most powerful superhero, Homelander must be the figure these children most admired.
Hearing Teacher Mooney's request, Eric paused, turned around, and looked at the students' gazes in the classroom.
"My only admonition to you is to be good!"
After speaking, under the astonished gazes of the students and Teacher Mooney, he grabbed Billy by the shoulders and lifted him up.
"Whoosh!"
Then, under the shocked gazes of all the students, he held Billy's shoulders, lifted him into the air, and flew out the window.
Suspended in the air, being carried away by Eric, Billy mumbled to Eric, "Are you serious, Homelander?"
At the same time, he looked back into the classroom. All the students were exclaiming and rushing towards the window in a swarm.
Billy saw emotions named "envy, jealousy, and hatred" in the eyes of many classmates.
"I also want to be held by Homelander and fly into the sky like that!"
A freckle-faced teenager closest to the window, looking at Billy being carried by Eric, exclaimed.
"I can't believe this guy knows Homelander! He's really good at hiding it. When he comes back, I'm definitely going to interrogate him and make him honestly confess how he met Homelander!"
Another chubby kid, who was good friends with Billy, said unhappily.
"This guy, I remember he once talked about many superheroes, I didn't expect it to be true! So this idiot really wasn't lying. No, next time at lunch, I'm going to beat him until he spills all his secrets!"
A member of the class football team said.
Billy, under the gaze of all his classmates, also felt a bit giddy at this moment.
But he quickly reacted. He was a superhero himself, so being carried by Homelander was nothing to be proud of!
Eric, of course, didn't know Billy Batson's inner thoughts at this moment. He took him out of the school and flew forward in the sky.
Billy, held by Eric's shoulder, had an unobstructed view of the city below.
He hunched his neck like a quail, preventing the cold wind from blowing into his neck.
He didn't know Eric's flight destination, but it seemed like they were flying towards Metropolis.
"You don't seem to be listening attentively, Billy."
Eric looked down and said to the silent Billy.
"That's right, I was doing algebra. My interest in history class usually doesn't exceed my interest in math. Teacher Mooney's lessons are always too complicated, and I always feel sleepy listening to them."
Billy pouted and said.
He looked back at the gradually disappearing shadow of his school, and said to Eric with some melancholy:
"Now I don't know how to explain it to them. They will definitely interrogate me frantically and then ask me for your autographed photos. Although I don't really mind being popular, this is not what I originally imagined."
"Is that so?"
Eric looked down at the dejected Billy, "If you tell me you don't like being noticed this way, I'll try to find you using other methods."
"It's not that I don't like it…"
Billy scratched his head, "I just haven't prepared myself to be one of the most popular people in class. Now they all know I know you!"
"Then you're overthinking it. A teenager from a foster home will never blend in with those football players. Alright, let's get back on track. The Justice Society has now detected some objects moving rapidly towards Earth's atmosphere, and everyone is ready for battle."
Eric looked towards the distant atmosphere and continued to say to Billy, "And you are the most unpunctual and hardest person to contact among everyone."
"Hmm."
Billy proudly shook his newly bought baseball jacket in the air and asked Eric, "So, you need me?"
"In some ways, yes."
Eric nodded, not denying it.
"Hmph, last time you fought that alien chimpanzee, you didn't notify me. This time I thought you had forgotten about me again."
Billy didn't forget to complain to Eric.
Last time he saw Eric beating up the gorilla alien on TV, he felt extremely regretful that he wasn't there.
If he had been there, he might have been on TV too!
"I know one thing."
