Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 252

Chapter 252 Chapter 59.1 - Before the trip

The classroom buzzed with the energy of students trickling in in the early morning of the day. Anxiety hung in the air, palpable as the weight of impending deadlines loomed over them. Among the students was a distressed girl, her face reflecting the fatigue of sleepless nights.

As she shuffled into the room, her classmates noticed the desperation in her eyes. The girl whispered anxiously to her friend, "What do I do? What do I do?" Her distress was evident, and the concerned looks exchanged among her peers hinted at a looming crisis.

Puzzled, her friend asked, "What happened?"

With a heavy sigh, the distressed girl confessed, "I just forgot to submit the assignment."

"You did what?" gasped her friend, disbelief etched across their face.

"I forgot to submit it," she repeated, her voice tinged with regret.

As the realization of the situation sank in, murmurs of sympathy and concern rippled through the classroom.

The girl's eyes welled up with tears as the weight of the consequences became apparent. She stammered, "My grades will fall off, and I could lose my scholarship."

A somber atmosphere settled over the room, and her friends exchanged glances as they looked worried.

However, in the other corner of the classroom, another conversation was going on.

"Bro…."

One guy entered the classroom and put his bag on the desk.

"What's up?"

"You know what went down?"

"Not a clue."

"We messed up and didn't submit the assignment."

"Oh…. Got it."

"Yeah, it is what it is, bro."

"Aren't you worried about your grades taking a hit, though?"

"They've already plummeted. But next semester, I'm planning a comeback; no sweat."

"..."

The second boy leaned back in his chair, an easygoing grin on his face. "Nah, man. Grades are just numbers. I'll bounce back. No need to stress about it."

The contrast between the two conversations was stark.

While the distressed girl carried the weight of potential consequences, her friend seemed almost nonchalant about the situation. The boy's carefree attitude hinted at a different perspective on academic challenges.

"Sigh…."

Changing the perspective to the front seats, the girl with bob-cut white hair pushed her face to the desk, burying herself.

"What was with that assignment, man?"

"Couldn't do it?"

"Well, we wrote some things, but….."

"Expected from you?"

"Ha!"

"Just joking."

"Did you do it then?"

"Of course. The answer was pretty easy, though."

"Ho? What was it then?"

"You will see soon."

"Scared to reply?"

"Who the hell is scared!"

"Obviously, you."

"….."

It was the usual day for the two twins.

"Come on, say it. Say it." Julia smirked, seeing Lucas backing down a little. She knew her twin well, and there was no way he could find the correct answer.

"…..Cough….Plagiarism is prohibited."

Julia scoffed, shaking her head. "Plagiarism? Seriously? You're such a goody-two-shoes, Lucas."

"Better than risking a lecture on ethics."

Julia rolled her eyes, seeing the smirk on his face. "Whatever. Let's see how well your 'ethics' hold up in the real world."

However, she had yet to have her fill for the morning. She needed more attention and energy; there was no way this was enough after all.

Turning her attention to Irina, who seemed engrossed in something on her smartwatch, Julia couldn't resist the opportunity for some playful teasing.

"Hey, Irina, what's so interesting on that watch of yours? Checking out some boys, huh?"

Irina scoffed, shooting Julia a disapproving look, and promptly closed her smartwatch. "Please, Julia, don't be absurd."

However, Julia didn't miss how she flinched a little. She chuckled, leaning in a bit. "Come on, spill it. What's the secret info you're hiding there?" freewёbnoνel.com

Irina raised an eyebrow, unamused. "It's called privacy. You should try respecting it sometimes."

"Privacy? In this day and age? How quaint."

"Sigh….."

Knowing that this would go on like that for a little longer, Irina accepted her fate.

CREAK!

Just at that moment, the door opened wide, coming to her aid.

"Huh?"

Revealing a guy they knew well.

"Ethan?"

The trio turned to look at Ethan, expecting their usual exchange, but something seemed off. Ethan appeared lost and dazed, his usual composed demeanor disrupted. He absentmindedly walked to his desk and sat down, his gaze fixed on some unseen point.

"Hey, Ethan, you alright?"

"Did he turn into an NPC? Will he give us quests now?"
