I Became A Third-Rate Villain In The Hero Academy [On Hold]

Chapter 30: All Eyez On Me (3)

The afternoon lectures finally came to an end, concluding all of Monday's classes.

'Ugh.'

I managed to endure by pinching my thigh.

Using Overload for 10 seconds took a toll on my body.

I calmed my trembling body and barely held back my eyelids from closing.

Luckily, the practical evaluations following the duel, such as first aid and crisis management, weren't as physical, so I managed to endure them.

'That's why I used Overload.'

Still, the practical evaluations were tough.

If it were a theory class, I could sit back, relax, and let my mind wander.

"Ah, I'm tired. Let's go."

"Sure, there's a place near the dorms with great chocolate shakes. Want to stop by?"

"Sounds good."

I overheard students chatting.

...Was it the relief of having safely attended all the lectures? My tension eased, and drowsiness quickly washed over me.

But I can't sleep yet. Today is Monday, the day of the Tactical Strategies Club's regular meeting.

[Sub Quest: Join and actively participate in at least 2 clubs.]

Reward: 2 Shop Gold Coins

'I should have just done two. Why did I choose three?'

Despite that, the reward is too tempting. Oh well, I'll just do it.

As I think about following Aisha, who had gone ahead of me,

"Here, Theo."

Noctar approaches me, handing over a black bag.

Judging by the texture, it's the traditional potion of the Noctar Tribe.

But it was as if he had psychic abilities.

It just so happens that I finished the last one yesterday.

"...How did you know I ran out?"

"I thought you'd be out by now if you were consuming it regularly, so I brought some."

"Thanks, I'm off to club activities."

I immediately chased after Aisha.

Soon, I saw her sitting on a bench under a large tree.

I caught my breath and approached her.

"Whew, Aisha. Sorry for being late."

"Seriously, Theo! Why were you so late? I've been waiting forever. The carriage just left, so let's take it slow."

"Understood. No. Okay, alright."

"···Just say 'understood' like you used to. Sigh······ People might think I'm the bad guy here."

Aisha and I maintained a distance of about three steps as we arrived at the bus stop in front of the Hero Department's main entrance.

'Ugh.'

Each step felt as though my body would give out.

Step by step.

With great effort, I boarded the carriage.

Since most students had already boarded the previous one, the inside was quiet.

"······."

Drowsiness swiftly enveloped me.
