Excelium [Editing]

Kabanata 23

Our last class was PE and our teacher was Sensei Sinner. He made us run for 10 laps around the huge field of the school.

Our other classmates was already on their knees and begging for water. Sensei Sinner said do not stop. If your legs cannot take the fatigue anymore, you can walk for a moment but never stop. They weren't taking him seriously because...

"Ha..ha..ha.. who does he think he is?! He's just a bottom ranker teacher!" reklamo ng isang lalaki habang hinihingal na nakaupo sa sahig.

"I'll report this" saad naman ng isa.

"We wouldn't do that if we were you" sabay-sabay na saad namin nina Trois at Layn habang nagpapatuloy kami sa pagtakbo. We were smirking as we pass them.

We already run for 5 laps but were still not feeling the fatigue. I'm used to it because of papa. He trained me for three months.

"He's just your adviser you stinking bottom feeders" saad ng isang babae na kakalagpas lang namin. Napangisi ako dahil sa sinabi niya.

Kaunting araw pa lamang namin nakakasama ang sinasabi nilang adviser lang namin. Pero kilalang kilala na namin siya.

"Just a reminder..." panimula ko at lumingon sa kanya na medyo malayo na mula sa amin.

"Run before he catch you" sabay-sabay naming saad at binilisan ang takbo noong maramdaman na ang presensya ng mala-halimaw naming guro.

Narinig namin ang sigawan ng mga estudyante na nasa likuran namin. I also heard Yu's voice. I almost laughed.

"Haha! He's behind us!" excited na saad ni Trois.

"Run..." nilamig kami noong marinig ang malalim, garalgal at malamig na tinig na iyon. Mas binilisan pa namin ang pagtakbo. It was definitely his voice.

Sensei Sinner hates it when you are doing something half-baked. He wants perfect result. He hates weak ones. The fact that none of us is kicked out from the dorm is proof that he can see strength in the Kings Dormitories. I've heard that Sensei Sinner graduated as the top exceliumist in their generation. It seems that it was true. He's quite very hard on us as well.

"KINGS! Don't stop or I'll catch you" babala niya. See? Ain't that hard?

"Yes sir!" sigaw namin at binilisan pa ang takbo. This run wasn't just about running. It's a game of tag for ten laps. Sensei Sinner is not actually running. He's just walking. It seems that he expected that many students will drop out and never take his run seriously.

Napatingin ako sa second floor noong may naramdamang tila may nakatingin sa amin. It was Wein, Kleiv and Vyann. Wein stuck his tongue out. I smirked at him with a pissed expression.

"Sensei! Looks like Wein wants to join the fun!" sigaw ko.  Mabilis namang namutla ang mukha nilang tatlo at akmang aalis na ngunit biglang lumitaw si Sensei Sinner sa harapan nila.

"Good timing, second years. Treat this as your training. I don't want any of my student slacking off" seryosong saad nito. Napabungisngis ako dahil wala silang nagawa kundi tumakbo kasama namin.

"Damn iiiitt!!" sigaw ni Wein habang binibilisan ang takbo. Tatawa-tawa naman na binilisan rin ni Trois ang takbo niya na tila nakikipagkompetensya kay Wein.
