Chapter 061, Chance Encounter
March 11th came around and the St. Romia Military Academy, at last, began to officially hold cla.s.ses.
The news that Lin Yuan, Caesar, and others represented the school to partic.i.p.ate in the National Compet.i.tion and won the championship rapidly spread throughout the school. The student union made a customized web page on the campus network for the compet.i.tion highlights. The intricately designed Wall of Fame published all of the contestant"s profiles with a video of each match that can be directly clicked to view.
As one of the very few"Betas" in the compet.i.tion team, Lin Yuan suddenly became a celebrity throughout the whole school.
As early as when he won the runner-up in the school-wide compet.i.tion, Lin Yuan was a little Beta monster with his name already being spread widely across the school. Now that they had watched his excellent performance in the National Compet.i.tion. The Betas in school admired him even more to the point of worship.
Even though Lin Yuan does not have a tall and straight build or a strong aura like an Alpha, he is still pretty good-looking and always wears a smile on his face. It is easy for this handsome little guy with optimism like sunshine to win over the Beta schoolgirls. Early morning on campus, from time to time, some unfamiliar Beta girls took the initiative to say h.e.l.lo to Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan is a guy with an amiable personality too. When another party takes the initiative to speak to him, he will reply back with a smile.
Along the way, the senior sisters who coincidentally ran into them were honestly way too many.
Caesar is very upset about this, he follows Lin Yuan closely sticking behind his back. He wished he could slap a big label on Lin Yuan"s forehead, "this person already has an owner" or "this is Caesar"s Omega" so as to avoid those people indulging in any fantasies of Lin Yuan.
Thanks to Caesar"s sharp gaze, the number of people who came to hit on Lin Yuan was significantly reduced. Lin Yuan was completely oblivious of this and was still excitedly chatting with Caesar while walking to the cla.s.sroom.
As soon as he entered the cla.s.sroom, Baker immediately walked over with a smile and said: "The squad leader is really good! I watched the live broadcast of the compet.i.tion, you are indeed too cool!"
It"s been quite a while since he"s seen this red-head, thick-hearted Baker. Lin Yuan feels even more close and dear, he can"t help but smile and clap his shoulder. asking: "Where have you been for this ten-day vacation, ah?"
Baker scratched his head and said: "I traveled together with my parents."
Lin Yuan smiled and said: "No wonder, your arms even have tan lines."
Baker touched his chocolate-colored arm and laughed as he said: "Hey, I went to see the ocean, I was basking in the sun on the beach!"
Karl saw Lin Yuan, he then came over and said in a low voice: "Lin Yuan, go to the dormitories this afternoon after school. Your sister sent an express delivery from the StarCraft. You were not at school. Uncle Fornt asked me to sign it for you first."
Lin Yuan recalled his sister wanted to send him pastries as well as inhibitors, he hurriedly nodded and smiled saying: "Okay I got it, thank you."
As soon as Lin Yuan ran across a cla.s.smate he soon overlooked Caesar falling behind him, this is truly a bad habit.
Caesar looked at Karl and by chance came into contact with Karl"s meaningful gaze.
— Don"t tell me he also knows the matter of Lin Yuan being an Omega? Did his uncle, Dr.Font, tell him?
This kind of conjecture made Caesar frown in displeasure.
Karl"s gentle gaze on Lin Yuan made Caesar"s heart particularly disgruntled. Alphas have a very strong desire to monopolize their own Omega, they instinctively reject the approach of other Alphas. Unfortunately, Lin Yuan is a guy who is slow to the uptake. He doesn"t have the slightness consciousness that he is an Omega, he"s even talking and laughing with Karl......
Karl even claps his shoulder like a good bro and shakes his hand......
Caesar was eventually unable to bear it, he reaches out and tightly wraps an arm around Lin Yuan"s shoulder. He took him to the inner corner of the cla.s.sroom while he said in a low whisper, "Quickly go find your seat, cla.s.s is starting soon."
"......oh!" Lin Yuan did not notice the abnormality. He smiled at Karl and then walked right after Caesar to the corner of the cla.s.sroom.
The rules of the military academy are very strict. The seats in the cla.s.sroom are all placed according to their ticket number. Lin Yuan and Caesar"s student ID numbers are close together, it just so happens that they could be seated together.
At every single moment, Caesar was incomparably glad that at that time, he exploited his ident.i.ty as a prince to make the headmaster swap his dorm room. Lin Yuan was not originally No. 49, but rather No. 47. He would have been in a dormitory with Karl. After the princ.i.p.al changed the dormitory, Lin Yuan"s student number was also conveniently changed. This predestined encounter is really wonderful. Caesar didn"t expect that by casually swapping like this, he unexpectedly also swapped his Omega to his side.
Turning his head back to take a quick look at Lin Yuan, Caesar"s gaze could not help but become even gentler. Seeing that he couldn"t adjust the screen, Caesar took the initiative to help him carefully adjust it, Lin Yuan turned and gave him a smile, saying: "Thank you, ah."
Caesar could not help but say: "You don"t need to be so formal with me."
Lin Yuan gave an "Oh" and didn"t mind the deep meaning behind Caesar"s words. He looked down and pulled up the cla.s.s timetable on the screen and looked over it attentively.
The academic program for the Command Department is very tightly organized and almost every day, there is one cla.s.s after another going from morning to night.
There are many things to learn in the first year, including Military Foundations Theory, Modern Military History of the Empire, Warship Operation Theory with Real-life Combat Practice, as well as Cosmic Mechanics, Natural Sciences, and so on. Their schedules are very full. Every day from 8 am to half-past five in the afternoon, there is only one hour to eat and rest at noon.
Soon after, the cla.s.s finally begins. The first cla.s.s is Military History. Unlike the entrance examination when only the basic history of the Empire is tested, as a military school student, they still must master the detailed history of the Strand Federation, they must know themselves and know their enemies.
The teacher who attended the history cla.s.s wore a solemn expression, and the cla.s.sroom as a result was also deathly silent.
Lin Yuan was earnestly listening while he also took notes. Because his expression was too focused, he attracted the attention of the teacher at the podium. When the teacher began to call out names, the first chosen was No. 48 sat in the corner.
"Lin Yuan."
Lin Yuan stood up, "Here."
"What year did the Strand"s coup d"etat take place?"
Lin Yuan"s mind went blank, he really didn"t know this question. He had originally only reviewed the Empire"s history for the exam. He knew the Empire"s history by heart, but the Federation"s history is not within the scope of the examination, and he also had no time to look it over.
