Seed, it wasn't heartbroken, he knew that the reunion between him and his brother wouldn't be far in the future, and he can withstand anything that the Military School Throw at him although there is that ache in his heart, a feeling of sadness As he took his step out of the door he didn't look back, he just took a deep breath and continued in front of him, walking beside the colonel.
"You are pretending to be strong, kid" The colonel said:
Seed looked at him, wondering, what could possibly be the colonel talking about?
"That's a good thing but don't lie to yourself" He continued "Being stripped away from your family is painful, feeling it could make you feel sad, but you need to man up and fight for them, your with me " He said trying to get the attention of Seed.
Seed stopped for a moment, looking at the colonel, taking a firm stand like a soldier shouting, "Yes, sir!"
The colonel said, "That's the spirit." As they continued walking towards the military bus.
Seed now can see it. It's like a school bus but the windows are closed, and it's sealed shut like armored vehicles.
But he is stepped into the sunlight immediately, his body started to feel weak. Sweat is draining out of his body And he looked fragile for a moment.
A system pop-up.
You are in direct sunlight 50% of your stats are halved.
Seed grunted at the message, "Fifty percent is too much for my liking."
When he got on the bus and looked around, suspecting that no one would be inside because there was no noise coming out of it. But to his surprise, the bus was full of teenagers like him And there was only one seat that wasn't occupied by anyone.
He decided to go and sit on it, and the passenger student that Seed would sit beside he looked strong and muscular, and he looked up and down at seed Pushing his blue hair aside so he can take a good look at Seed.
See the scoff aside the demeanor and sat down looking in front of him, ignoring the blue-haired student beside him.
"You know, not a lot of people like to sit beside me wanna know why" The blue-haired said
Seed looked at him and saw his muscle and his strong physique "he can't be weak by any chance so it must be something else but anyways he thought, it doesn't matter"
Seed continued ignoring and looked in front of him again.
"Oh so we got an arrogant one. I'll tell you why" The blue-haired continued. "because probably you won't have enough strength to stand up after it"
Seed looked again at the blue-haired student and this time there was something wrong with his face. He was grinning from ear to ear. His eyes were like bloodshot red like a predator looking at a prey.
Seed eyes darkening, his muscle tightening, ready for an attack to come. He was not hesitating his fist was clenching. "Am I strong enough to defeat that wall of muscle beside me without using my abilities" Seed wondered. I don't have my sword. It's with the passengers' item.
But all of a sudden the blue-haired student starts to giggle in front of Seed and after he was done giggling he said, "You should have looked at your face I was joking with you."
Seed took a deep breath for him it was a relief for not fighting on the first day. In fact it was not even the first day yet; he was still in the bus. He didn't go to the military yet so he didn't want any eyes on him.
"I'm James my and friends call me Jay" the Blue-haired student said
"sorry if I startled you." Jay continued.
"No don't worry about it and it was funny Jay" Seed said, jokingly. "I'm Seed. Nice meeting you Jay"
Jay smiled and said, "Nice meeting you friend. I hope we come out of this Military School in one piece."
But all of a sudden they were interrupted by one of the soldiers. He was a muscular one and had a firm demeanor, walking towards them, saying loud enough for both them to hear, "Zip it."
Seed didn't like the attitude. He looked at James and James looked like he had the same feeling as him but he couldn't say anything about it so he stayed quiet. so As Jay the rest of the ride
after time passes, about three hours have passed and Seed lost track of time.
He was bored. And because of that he was dabbling within the system, thinking of new ways for it to help him.
And he found out that the system had an inventory that he can store items in as long as it's not alive like plants or animals he wanted to test it so he looked at Jay and told him,
"Do you have a coin for me?" Jay was confused and told him, "What would you do with it?"
Seed coughed and said, "Oh nothing, I'll just show you a magic trick."
For the entertainment and the boredom that they were in Jay, pass the coin to Seed .
Seed held the coin in his hand and then tossed it up vertically. And landed in the palm of his hand and covered it with the other hand and after a second he opened his hands and the coin disappeared
seed smiled. "Yes it works" he said.
Jay was shocked. "Where did it go? I could have sworn it landed in your hands."
"Now now I'm not done yet." Seed said after he closed his hands like he's holding a coin and starts to blow at his index finger and the coin appeared in front of Jay.
Jay was amazed. "How did you do it? Teach me."
Seed passed the coin back and said, "Every musician has his secrets."
All of a sudden Seed hears: "Open the gate!" and the bus slowing down. They have arrived at the Military School and then Seed can see the colonel again getting on the bus and saying: "Everybody off the bus now! It's time to attend the Military School."
