Time passed quickly, and the bell signaling break time finally rang and as soon as the teacher left the classroom, the atmosphere immediately came alive again.Before Kieran could even stand up from his seat, someone had already called out first."Cafeteria?""Let's go to the cafeteria together. Is Kieran coming? Ron too."Ron immediately turned around. Even he looked slightly surprised because usually no one invited them.One of the students shrugged."What? You guys have to eat too, right? You can't study all the time."Ron chuckled. He turned toward Kieran and asked, "You coming?"Kieran thought for a moment before nodding.They then walked out of the classroom together.The school corridor was filled with students who had just come out of their respective classrooms. The atmosphere was quite lively.At the end of the corridor, a student had just come out of another classroom. He was one of Franky's close friends who had once extorted students near the alley by Kieran's house.He w

The following days passed much more peacefully than before.The cheating accusations gradually disappeared from everyday conversations. There were still a few people who brought them up from time to time, but most students had already lost interest.After all, schools always had new gossip every week. Moreover, there were far too many other interesting things to talk about lately.For example, Franky Hogarth, or several students who had suddenly disappeared from school after the bullying case was exposed.But none of that affected Kieran's life very much. His routine remained the same: go to school, study, then go home.Occasionally stop by the office.Then repeat it all again the next day.If there was one thing that had changed, it was probably the attitude of the people around him."Kieran, what method did you use for question seven?""Kieran, let me borrow your notes for a moment.""Hey, what was the answer to yesterday's physics assignment?"At first it was only one or two people

Kieran's steps remained calm as he entered the residential area where he lived. The orange glow of the afternoon slowly covered the streets, which were becoming increasingly crowded with people returning from work.Throughout the journey, his mind was still occupied with several things, and then just as he turned onto the road leading to his house, that familiar voice suddenly sounded.[Ding!]Kieran did not stop walking, but his eyes narrowed slightly.[Abnormal situation detected around Host's residence.][Preliminary analysis indicates a 73% probability of conflict.]Kieran continued walking as usual while speaking to the System."Explain."[Two unidentified individuals detec

Saturday arrived sooner than Kieran had expected.The weather that morning was quite clear. The sun had only been up for a few hours when Kieran was already at the office as usual.However, unlike other days, this time a simple black backpack sat beside his chair. He had prepared everything several days ago.The previous week, he had requested two days off from the café owner where he worked so that he would not have to come in during this weekend. It had not been difficult to get approval because his performance over the past few weeks had been quite good.On the other hand, Irene had also been informed.Of course, not with the real reason.Kieran had only said that he would be staying over at Ron's house to study and work on some school assignments.At first, Irene had looked a little surprised that her son suddenly had a close enough friend to study and even stay overnight with.But in the end, she did not ask many questions.After everything that had happened recently, seeing Kier

The afternoon in the Eastern Outskirts felt much quieter.The sun was still hanging in the sky when Kieran finally left the villa without anyone noticing his departure.Marsellus was attending a small gathering with several collectors, while the staff and bodyguards were busy handling various other matters. Although he did not think Kieran was like other teenagers, he also did not think Kieran would leave the villa on his own.He simply thought Kieran was resting in his room.In reality, several minutes earlier, the teenager had already left the complex through the back route.The System's transparent panel continuously displayed directions in front of him.After walking several b
