《Under The Game of God》Chapter 12- Jack First Lesson.
Advertisement
"Jack, how's your study?"
Freed university Class-A, a spiked hairstyle youth asked Jack who look at the book he was holding for a while then turn his head to stare at his hair. 'Why did he change his hairstyle?' he thought.
"What, jealous?"
"Want me to fix your hair?" When Jack meets Romnick, his clothes were like delinquents on the street. His hair was scholarly contrary to his appearance, so he wondered if this kid hit his puberty.
"No." Jack ignored him as he returns on reading, Romnick, glance at him and thought. 'Come on, is the book more important than your friend.'
Romnick bitterly smiled. 'We've been hanging out for a week, but I only heard a few words from that mouth of yours.'
"By the way, I remembered that for this past few days, you didn't study a single thing. If you care about someone study, shouldn't you care about yours instead?' Romnick was within Jack psychic field, so naturally, he knew his thoughts. When he thought about his behavior to them, he felt that it was rude if he didn't respond.
Romnick was dumbstruck as this was the first time, he heard Jack saying a sentence, a long one at that! 'Did this fellow consume a wrong medicine?'
Black lines appeared on Jack's face as he didn't know whether he will laugh or cry when he heard his thought.
"HAHA, you don't have to worry. Even if I don't study here my mom already taught me all of the materials up to high school, so you don't have to worry about my grades." Romnick puffs his chest proudly as he said."What, do you want me to teach you?"
Looking at his expression, Jack shook his head and didn't bother to respond. "That's true, contrary to his look, he was one of the top students in our class. If he studied seriously even my position as the 1st in the exam is a child play to him." Arvin approached the two as he commented.

"Anyway, the exam will be tomorrow so Jack I hope that you get rid of that reputation of yours and obtain some recognition. If you need some help, I am willing to offer some pointers." It may sound arrogant, but Jack knew that Arvin was only concern about his result.
"Thank you, but I can do it myself." Looking at his eyes filled with confidence, Arvin was stunned and didn't know what to respond.
............................................
"Oh! Guys, want to go to our house?" Oblivious to the atmosphere, Romnick suddenly remembered that her mom told him that she wants to see his friends.
"Why?" Arvin asked puzzled.
"Nothing, my mom wants to meet the two of you. Well, we can use this opportunity to know each other, right?" Romnick eyes shone brightly.
Seeing his bright eyes, Arvin nod his head while Jack maintained his silence. "Jack, want to come?" Asked Romnick.
"Okay;" Jack said.
Looking at the bustling people, Jack recognized this area as he once visited this place with his father, he glances at the spiked hair youth who was leisurely walking in this street. "I am surprised that your family can afford to live in here."
It was not strange that he asked this question as the students who studied at Freed University were scholars as their IQ is mostly 120 above.
The school emphasizes the genius, not the riches so when Freed University emerged, a lot of students that surpass the IQ of 120 sprouts in the whole world.
In the whole world, a lot of gifted don't have the money and support to nourish their ability because of this reason the University for elite popped up. As to how this University developed, the powerful families and the lowest government doesn't know, so the school was mysterious in the eyes of this riches and power.
Romnick answered with a laugh. "Well, my mother is a business genius, you could say that we are well off."

Arvin adjusted his glasses and said. "His mother was Angelica Branagh, a genius businesswoman that manages to become one of the millionaires in five years. A rumor said that her profit already exceeds a billion, but I am not sure if it's true or not."
Jack lifted his head as he said. "Owning a house in Dongcheng was hard. Needless to say a mansion, the term 'rich' couldn't longer use to regard your mom, 'power' is quite fitted as it was rare to find a foreigner business blooming on this kind of place." A shocked expression appeared on their faces as they listen to Jack, Romnick mouth was already wide open that an egg could already fit on it. After recovering from shock, Arvin looks at him and said. "For you to know the depth of power in this place, you are not waste as the rumor."
Romnick also nodded. "Well, I am not familiar with the business, but I know a thing or two, my mother said that this place has a lot of power that she couldn't afford to offend."
Following Romnick back, the three of them entered an alley and reach an abandoned factory, Jack sense a murderous aura following them. He was about to inform his friend when a three middle-aged man with piercing on their ears block them. "Who are you?" Romnick asked as he turned vigilant, his sense told him that they were dangerous.
"Sorry, I always use this route as it conveniently fast, but I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen." Romnick apologized, he always used this route to return home, but not even once he stumbled this kind of trouble.
'I can't use my power here, I need to think of a way;' Jack thought.
Spreading his psychic field, the opponents thought became visible to him.
'Foolish kid, allow me to control your body, I will teach you a lesson on how to control your psychic force while maintaining a low profile.'
"You two flee as fast as possible, I will find a way to distract them, this situation is not simple;" Romnick said with a grave expression.
"We are not going." Arvin shook his head as he also knew the danger they were in, Jack didn't say anything as he stays rooted to his spot. Seeing this, the man in the middle of the group with piercing, smiled in disdain as he thought that Jack was trembling with fear.
Looking at Arvin's eyes, Romnick knew that he couldn't persuade this stubborn snake, so he didn't say any more words as it will waste his time. Looking at Jack, he shook his head and was about to say something when a light ray hit his neck as his vision turned dark. He looks at Jack in worry. "Jack..."
"Big brother Wei, the task that our young master gave us sure is easy, even those thugs on the street could do this. Why the hell did he send us with this simple mission?" The lackey on the left side commented in disdain.
"Don't complain, I am sure, the young master sends us here because this task is not simple at all." The other man shook his head.
"Don't argue, bring those three inside the factory and gather our men." Big brother Wei commanded.
The two carried the three unconscious youth inside the factory and brought them to an empty room. They didn't notice that Jack's eyes turned blue and a lazy smile appeared on his face.

Sword saints hone their craft in battle, growing more deadly even as the tide of muskets flooding the country make the average soldier ever more dangerous. One woman towers over the era.

8 200AK - The Alchemy Kingdom
Karl always wanted to be a Mage. He was born in the Serion Kingdom, a fully pledged magic Kingdom. Seems like a perfect match, right? Unfortunately, no. He's just a commoner, working endlessly to maintaining the lifestyle of Mages. On his 15th birthday, his last chance to escape from a miserable life was destroyed when he was deemed to have no magic potential. For thousands of Serion's citizens that would be the end of their dreams. But how could this story be any fun, ending like that? Follow Karl and his friends while they tried to fight against the Kingdom's oppression. Will the system bend them to submission or will they break the chains of destiny? Spoiler alert: After thousands of years, an ancient Magic system will be reborn in the small Caiset village. What should you expect? - Kingdom Building: For sure! The heavy lifting will come later, I promise! Foundation is important, please be patient; - Epic battles: A Kingdom is not built without war and conflict. Who doesn't like good fights? Let's bring some excitement to this novel!; - Multiple leading characters: Karl convinced them to get on the bus, but this is a very long trip and everyone will need to drive a little; - Scientific Magic System: Especially Alchemy! I'm in no way trying to take the fantasy out of Magic. I just feel like trying to do something more logical. I'll probably stumble on a fine line, but I’m counting on you to keep me on track!; - World Building: I’m using some basic concepts from traditional Fantasy Worlds and trying to add some nice touches to make it unique; - Fun?: I'll try to insert some humor into the story, but that’s an experience we will go through together. Other points I find important: Alchemy is mostly crafting magic tools, but it will go a little further down the road. Even if you don't like crafting, weapon enhancing and whatnot, don’t give up on the novel. You might be surprised about Alchemy's reach later. Also, other types of Magic will play an important role here, just not the leading role. ......... Check out my two spin-off novels, Merchant Queen and Harbinger of Death! Both are independent novels, but with the same world setting... Maybe some crossover later... Either way, you can check them to get additional information on worldbuilding and hidden plots...
