《Birth of an AntiHero》Chapter 173 – Mr. Abrams plans a Visit.
Advertisement
Mr. Abrams: “I just received a call from Winney. It appears that both boys have already woken up today. Would any of you like to pay them a visit?”
Elijah: “I will! I would also like to ask if they are both okay sharing the details about how they got their injuries. And...uhm, it’s not that I don’t trust our school’s nurses, but I want to know if they’re feeling any better.”
Ophelia: “If Noel is awake then I need to check up on him. I will also be going.”
Oliviera: “OOH~ I wanna go! I wanna go! If I go, then I can interview him! And – And…! If I INTERVIEW him, then my blog will--!”
Wayne: “Oh no you don’t! No – no – no! If I can’t go because I have classroom duty today, then neither can you! You don’t get to have special treatment here!”
Oliviera: “A-hem! Yes I do. My daddy already wo-”
Mr. Abrams: “You’re staying Oliviera. Along with Wayne, it is your turn to take care of tidying up the classroom and taking out the class’s trash.”
Oliviera: “N-NOOOOO! I don’t WANT to take out the icky trash from our classr-”
Mr. Abrams: “This is not up for discussion, Oliviera!”
Oliviera: “S-Sorry…”
Mr. Abrams. If all goes well, then you all can just visit them tomorrow. And in a few days, there are plans to discharge those two anyways. This is nothing more than a first-day visitation since today marks the day either of them awaken.”
Ian: “Mr. Abrams! Do you know?! Has Aria woken up yet, by any chance??”
Mr. Abrams: “I…don’t. I didn’t receive an update about her, and since I didn’t, that could only mean that she didn’t have any notable changes worthy of reporting.(unless someone did something to her discreetly. But, since such a thing is unlikely, that’ll just scare the kids unnecessarily, so I won’t mention it.)”
Ian: “...Then, then there’s nothing to be done! I guess I can only wait until she’s feeling a lot better! Then, I’ll go and pay those guys a visit too! Mr. Abrams, I’m coming-!”
Brennan: “I also wanna go! How about you Leos?”
Leos: “…I’m staying.(I don’t want to be anywhere near that - that murderer!)”
Ophelia: “But didn’t Rise and Noel stay behind to save you and Oliviera? If she can’t go, then at least YOU should… to say thanks… or something.”

Oliviera: “OOOH good point! I MUST go! I need to properly show my appreciation for their deeds of risking their lives in order to buy US time: both Leos and I, to escape! Although they failed miserably, got hurt in the process, and couldn’t prevent us from being murdered cold-bloodedly shortly after escaping, at least they tried! And THAT effort alone, worthily deserves my praise-”
Mr. Abrams: “You’re not going, Oliviera. That’s final.”
Oliviera: “… Hmph!”
Mr. Abrams: “You can’t go today, because you need to complete your responsibilities to the school by tidying up the class. But if you want, I can take you to visit them next time I stop by, two days from now. Will that be alright? You’ll have enough time to speak, because that’s while they’re being discharged back to the dorms.”
Oliviera: “…Fine. I have no choice but to wait.”
Alyandrea: “I’ll go. Don’t you worry, Oliv, I can tell Noel and Rise aaallll about how you feel, how you wanted to visit them and put them on your blog.”
Oliviera: “Oooh don’t you dare, don’t you dare! If you ruin this chance for me, then Gods and Goddesses above so help me, I--!”
Aly: “Hehe, you’ll what? Blast obscene things about me on your blog? Won’t that instead, make you seem a little… petty, to your brand new increased viewership? I dunno much about blogs, but it doesn’t sound all that feasible if you try a stunt like that.”
Oliviera: “Oooh, she’s completely, absolutely right! Those new numbers aren’t going to stay satisfied with the little bits of info I released on the attack. I have to secure their attention with more STABLE knowledge from insider sources! I HAVE to bag an interview with them the day after tomorrow! Then…!
...Although it will be difficult, the world wishes to know more about ‘Elia’ Elijah + Nilia! They HAVE to be satisfied somehow! I’ll need to investigate this matter much more thoroughly!
…And discreetly! Definitely discreetly!)
What do you know! You’re only a boxer! That’s nothing special compared to our grand heroes – in – training! It’ll take more than me ranting about a nobody like you to appease them from tearing apart my channel!”
Alyandrea: “Hmph! If you want to interview somebody to attract views and rating, then why not just interview yourself? You ARE an ‘insider’ aren’t you? I mean, you died in the middle of nowhere! Haha, and even though they prob wouldn’t believe something like that, You can still mention other things, like the bombing at the dorms that you didn’t hear, the metal controller who summoned metal from the earth below which you ran away from, Mr. Abrams rushing off in a hurry after saving everyone, this part should play to the Abram fans. Besides! I am also an insider, I can share some info too, you know?”

Olivera: “*Hand waves* yeah, but you died too fast. What kind of insider information would you be capable of sharing that Ophelia couldn’t?”
Alyandrea: “…”
Oliviera: “OH, but the REST of your points are deliciously enticing! Thanks Aly~ *Hugs* I’ll start collecting my thoughts right now! Moreover, I should also try interviewing those other class students who met up with Elijah and felt the tremors within the forest! What were THEY thinking about at that time#? Heeheehee, I can even make Elijah look absolutely heroic! This should help raise his reputation a bit~ “Even without superpowers, Prince Elijah shines for his defenseless classmates’ hehe, Maybe until Mr. Abrams arrives, I can create a big battler for him or something~
(Besides, if I don’t embellish SOME story, Nilia fans will think Elijah unworthy! Elijah fansd will leave for lack of interesting content! And Elijah’s overall reputation might take a big hit for not doing anything special while Noel and Rise received praise and delivered face slaps to the Realist Faction! Of course, they also got laughed at…” Urgggh! To many things I need to do for my blog! Fine! Today, Prince Elijah shines on my blog! Tomorrow, I will share a slightly inferior tale about my experiences in regards to the attack! Plus Li Shun can be there too. He was cool, or so I heard from Ian. Then, the day after...Uhuhuhu~ Noel and Rise~ Don’t disappoint my advertisement~)”
Elijah: “…”
Alyandrea: “…”
Ophelia: “…”
Li Shun: “I too, want to go, Mr. homeroom teacher. *Cups fists*”
Mr. Abrams: “Alright then. Everybody who wants to come, and isn’t busy with class duties today, can run with me to the stadium entrance. We’ll have roughly 45 minutes before it’s time to watch the games, but I suppose I can have the feed transferred to a flat screen tv inside the patient bedroom Noel and Rise are in.(I should teleport my son over too. He’s a Generation leader, so it’s fitting for him to make an appearance.)”
Mr. Reeds: “Hoho~ It seems like the two will have a full house very soon. Rest assured, Mr. Abrams, I promise not to let my eyes wander away from these two on ‘chore duty’ – Oh, I’m sorry, I meant to say ‘Classroom duty’ hoho~!”
Mr. Abrams: “They are in your care.”
…
Noel: “The present she gave us… she squished the package…”
Rise: “You moron, you just HAD to anger her back then, didn’t you?”
Noel: “Ah! No, no. Don’t you pin this one on me! YOU were the first one to offend her so it’s YOUR responsibility to replace my gift! Cough up your life savings for me!”
The two were going back and forth while blaming the other for angering her and leading the chocolate boxes to getting crumpled. Of course, they naturally blamed her for being emotionally unstable, but she also bought the gifts for them, so they couldn’t act ungrateful in front of her face.
...or, well…
they didn’t think about it at the time.
Suddenly, a clamor of footsteps and voices grew ever closer, causing the two to finally start developing headaches. It seems ANOTHER group of visitors had yet to ‘grace’ the two with their presences. This meant more fake acting and probably another tense development. It seemed the two patients weren’t going to be allowed privacy anytime soon.
…
Ophelia: “Noel…”
Ian: “I bet he’s going to be so friggin’ happy to see a familiar face, after what he’s been through. Let along so many familiar faces! Cheer up!”
Li Shun: “That’s right. What’s done is done. At least every single one of us made it out of there with our…
.
..
…with our lives.”
Ophelia: “Still…”
Aly: “Ian’s right for a change. He’ll definitely be happy if we pay him a visit. In fact, I’m 98% certain that both of them will be pleased.”
Mr. Abrams: “We’re here. *Knock – Knock*”
Rise: “Grrrraaaaagh! MORE GUESTS?! GO THE FUCK AWAY! NOBODY WANTS TO SEE YOU PEOPLE! I don’t give a rat’s ass WHAT kind of ‘King’ or renowned person in school you are! just leave my fucking present at the door and GET LOST! Annoying fools.”
Mr. Abrams: "…”
