World’s Strongest Became the Game’s Weakest Villain

Chapter 216: Chapter 212: In the Classroom

Agares' worshippers. Interesting. I racked my brain around and remembered something about that being one of the starting points that Albert had told me when I was still wearing the mask of Yujin.

I ignored the other students for now and moved to my class.

"Are you troubled? Agares… I didn't think another demon would be spreading its web here." Titania asked. Since no one around could hear or see her, it was convenient to talk with her. In a low whisper, I answered.

"We'll see. This requires looking into."

"You are going to? Sounds tiresome."

It was.

It was tiresome, but I had other plans in mind.

We soon made the turn to the first floor and I moved toward my class. The crowd around started to dwindle and only one or two more people headed with me to the last of the ginormous classrooms that housed the students of class A.

I swung open the doors and stepped inside. All the raised benches that were scarcely filled became silent as their attentions turned toward me.

I had been skipping class since last week after the incident in the tower, it was normal.

Wearing a smile that I couldn't get used to but also couldn't abandon, I walked up the seats. Halfway through, a hand grabbed me.

"Lord Eugene."

"Ah, Lady Sophia," I answered with a bright smile, tilting my head to the side until a lock of my hair fell over my eyes. "How have you been?"

"Eh… uh… I-i've been alright, and you?"

"Woah, young master you really need to lose that creepy smile."

I puffed my cheeks and kneaded the top of Lily's head with my fist.

"Aaah, no! Stop! Stoppp!"

Of course, at her cries, I didn't stop.

"Uu, it's not fair. How do you feel kneading a lady, huh? I can't get married now."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Sophia quipped.

"You, a lady?" I chimed in.

"Aah! Young Master, you're always the worst!"

I flashed her a brighter smile than before which seemed to have irked her yet once more. Ignoring Lily, I waved at Sophia before walking further back. The one-eyed bitch and her two goons stared at me, all of them with an air of depression about them, though Princess Hoya did give me a wave and I waved back.

They didn't really have any relationship with that girl in this world, unfortunately, their sorrow was going to have to be kept locked up tight and comfy in the closet called their hearts.

When I finally went to the end of the classroom, the usual two buffoons were already sitting there patiently.

"You're here."

"Been a while, Eugene…"

I smiled at Albert and Luka.

"It has, you two been good?"

Luka gave me a grim nod while Albert tilted his head, I guess he meant to say that Luka was still not up to the groove. That's just better for me.

I sat down and soon, the door swung open. For now, I had to wait till classes ended.

The first of the common classes was 'Monster Biology, Analysis of different monsters known to man and how to beat them all.' Snappy names worked well I guess, but I did wish they would bother with that for classes that weren't compulsory.

The lecture was quite boring for me who had already been an adventurer, same was the case with Albert who could find out the monster's ancestry and which of its ancestors cheated on which other from just a glance, and also for Luka who had already taken all these classes before—Nyep.

He was paying attention.

He was even scrambling to make notes. Was this guy the dumb protagonist type of character? I didn't think that was the case at all. But to be fair, I hadn't looked at others like this for a month now.

"And so, to defeat Behemoths, you must attack their heels. Topple them over and focus on eyes and mouth, that is the best way to take one down."

Boring.

I hadn't had the opportunity to fight a behemoth yet, but I had studied more than enough on those special monsters under the guidance of the Branch Manager.

"Psst, look into the other students a bit."

Titania sighed at my whisper and turned around. The other two couldn't summon their fairies all the time, but they could still see mine. They didn't seem to be suspicious at all, though.

Mewling in my bag, Dantalian gently peeked out of the chains and gazed at the other students and different windows started popping up in front of my eyes again.

Agares' Worshipper. It would be even more interesting if someone like that pops up in this class.

[Name: Lily

Title: Grand Lord of Apollon. Regent Supreme

Disposition: Chaotic Neutral

Thoughts: I should study economics instead, that'll help Apollon more than this bullshit.

Likes: Young Master, Young Master, Young Master, Young Master, Cream Puffs

Dislikes: Luka, Albert, Young Master's girlfriend

Potential: Godly]

Woah.

Wait why!? Why is SHE the grand lord and I just a lord? Huh? Biased much, Dantalian? Also, what in the world was up with so many of the same likes, that was scary.

When I glared at Dantalian for her bias, she quickly turned her head away and looked at the next person.

[Name: Meryl Fonias

Title: 12 Zodiacs. Death of Fonias Twins

Disposition: Lawful Neutral

Thoughts: Is a fish and a duck a dish or a fuck?

Likes: Marcin Fonias, Fonias Fief, Battles to death

Dislikes: Wimps, Eugene Hall,

Potential: Chocolate Fondue]

Just pick a fucking scale for your potential goddamnit! What is Chocolate Fondue even supposed to describe?

I glared at the two again, and they started moving around.

One student, another, all losers though with seemingly great potential fitting for the class. I wanted to point at a certain one, but bringing cats to the classroom was, in fact, against the rules.

I didn't know when the classes changed since I was engrossed in playing the straight man, and the next popped up in front of me.

[Name: Irina Lester

Title: Professor of Field Battles, Monster Teacher, Flower of Kingdom of Sages, Former Zodiac

Disposition: Lawful Good

Thoughts: Goddamned Eugene Hall is staring at me again. I thought he had calmed down over the month but do such lecherous children never learn? I should punish him this time for sure. But his gaze is very gentle… but what if…?

Likes: Battles. More Battles. Her students.

Dislikes: Perverts

Potential: Mostly utilized :/]

What did you mean utilized? Seriously, just pick a scale.

Before that. Why was her perception of me so skewed? Lecherous? That wasn't fair at all, what a bitch. Well ok, maybe I did make some comments about her and never returned with an explanation which made her think I was just acting out, but it's still not fair.

I turned my gaze away and patted the cat's head, asking her to cut it out.

Irina or whatever started her class, but I couldn't shake off the feeling of her gaze piercing me every now and then.

That said, field battles, monster teacher…

Could this person be strong?

It would be worth it to test her out sometime. I could probably use her for my biddings. Making a mental note, I placed my head on my chin and listened to the class.

It wasn't bad, and even Albert seemed to be learning something, but I had much more experience with monsters and dungeons than anyone here which made it pretty useless for me. This was also the last of the compulsory classes.

I ended up closing my eyes for just a second and the next thing I knew.

"Eugene Hall. Please meet me after academy hours today in my office."

"Huh?"

"Do you think my class is a place for you to sleep? I also have other quips like why you haven't been coming to class at all since I am your homeroom teacher."

God damn it. This was why I didn't want to go back to a school.

"Whatever you say, teach."

Since I was going to be punished anyway, though. I decided to sleep out the entire class. I couldn't really sleep but it served well to annoy her, I eventually heard her fuming but ignored it, and at last, the bell rang signaling a break before the start of electives.

"Eugene Hall. You better come to my office if you care about yourself."

Leaving those words, the petty teacher left.

I got up from my seat and stretched around. I looked at Albert to see if he would stop me or anything, but the guy was pushing Luka to get up.

"You guys alright?"

"Not at all. Mondays suck dude."

"Huh? Why?"

"Our elective. Swordsmanship. It's the worst. Luka get the fuck up."

Ah… that professor…

"Coming coming, see ya around, Eugene. Glad to see you back here."

Luka had been tamed to a great degree too, huh. I could only blink as half of them disappeared. Amongst the other half, it seemed the Fonias twins offered me a few glares before leaving.

Sophia and Lily were set to study some management, so they were good. After chatting with them for a little, I finally pulled out Dantalian from the bag, placed her on my head, and set off.

"Find that follower bitch."

"Yes boss!"

Weaving past the crowds of students moving to different classes and other places, I peeked into each and every class. And then, at one—

"Eugene, there!"

There he was.

"Seeck Mohawk…"

"Not him! Next to him, that's the follower guy." Continue your journey at M V L

"Oh."
