Transmigrated With A Resolution System
Chapter 29 It Sucks To Be The Main Protagonist"What do I get if my gift is confirmed?" Nix asked confidently with a smirk, throwing his pass in the air, catching it easily.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Mr Zhao felt insulted that he would dare ask for a reward for his gift that was yet to be officially confirmed.
"It is as I said, Sir." Nix shrugged.
Nix raised a brow, clearly he didn't think he would easily release his pass to someone he considered an enemy–an accomplice to whatever his mother had tried to break off from.
What better way to use this opportunity to his advantage?
"Let's just call it compensation for not trusting my abilities at the beginning." Nix said with a smirk, looking back to his teacher who couldn't help but return her smirk.
"You are bold." Mr Zhao said. "But it's okay with me. You have my word, anything within the academy's limit would be granted." He walked up to Nix.
"Only if you actually are of that rank." He narrowed his eyes, opening his palm, awaiting the pass.
'A bit smaller than I imagined, but I can go with it!' Nix stretched his arms up, trying to make his body look more tall and imposing.
Tossing the pass towards Mr Zhao, "There's no going back now, Sir." He said with a smirk.
Mr Zhao lightly tapped on it, it brought out the holographic information on its user.
[Name: Nix]
[Gender: Male]
[Age: 22]
[Gift: Fire]
"Well aren't you the smartass!" He laughed at his own comment. Nix was indeed a fire gift user.
There was an uproar in the class, those who had second thoughts on his abilities were now in awe at the prodigy in their class.
Lumina on the other hand, had her head buried into her arms, her body trembling slightly at having repeatedly hurled insults at him, she had even dared attack him. He surely hid his other rare passive gift for a reason.
'Telekinesis is also one of the four gifts, that would mean he possesses two of the four, what does that make him?' Her thoughts spiraled into confusion and panic. She couldn't dare speak about the other to the whole class.
"Lumina, why are you putting your head down? You should be watching this!" Fae whispered through the corner of her mouth.
Raising her head momentarily, she gave a ruse smile, bringing her head back down immediately.
"What could the academy offer you?" He asked with an eye shut smile, he had made a promise and now they were bound by it.
Nix looked over to where Lumina sat, then back at Mr Zhao who was trying his hardest to maintain his smile, the corner of his lips were already trembling and his brows twitching.
'Your expression is obviously fake, but even you can't escape the promise you made.' He snickered in his thoughts.
"I don't have any in mind, yet." He shrugged. "But when I do, your word would matter greatly." His voice turned cold.
The students felt the tension in the air, silence suddenly befell the whole class.
Mr Zhao felt a bit uneasy with the switching personality of Nix, he could only term it as a phase he was going through, he would need to report this to the higher ups soon.
"Your last name wasn't included in your data." He pointed at the holographic interface.
"That's obviously because I don't have one." He retorted.
"How true can that be? Students here were either given the pass by the academy or given through their parents or guardians." He narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
"It turns out I found mine by chance..." He replied in half-truth.
His mind trailed to actually knowing about it at a crucial part of his life.
"... whoever had it, probably didn't want it." He reasoned.
"Where exactly did you find it?" His nails traced the edges of the bottom wings.
He used his vivid remembrance of where he had been to paint an elaborate description of the alley he had been to.
"I see." He pulled on his beard in thought, nodding his head.
"That means you must be an orphan, no family, no background." He locked his gaze on Nix.
"My apologies for digging past wounds and insecurities."
'No, you would be sorry for being a part of the whole conspiracy.'
Walking over to Nix, he stretched out his hand, then handed back the pass.
"I wouldn't call them insecurities, but I do appreciate your concern, Sir."
"We would be testing your abilities shortly." He said on a final note, leaving the class.
Nix nodded his head, he had been totally expecting that, and he was prepared for the challenge.
With no supervision in the class, it immediately turned rowdy once more, they had all their attention on Nix. They all came prepared with their questions.
Lumina couldn't take the uneasy feeling she was getting. She needed to leave while she still could.
"Lumina! You can't leave just like that?!" Fae called after her.
Nix looked in the direction of the disturbance, the pretty face didn't look all too happy with his presence for some reason. She had her pace increased as her friend followed in tow.
'Did I go a bit too far yesterday?' He wondered.
A female student who was dressed in a knee length pink kimono styled gown suddenly froze when her eyes glowed.
All the others who had gathered around Nix cleared a path for her to get to wherever she wanted to go while under a trance like state.
"Here we go again." A voice said.
This was the male who Nix remembered had tried to spite him, he sat laid back and was indifferent to the attention Nix was getting.
"Now we will have some fun!!" He whooped.
From his tone, this wasn't the first time something of this sort would happen.
"What does he mean?" He turned to the others for answers.
The others were entranced by her actions. They couldn't answer his question just yet m.
Her black hair flying wildly around her, she sat in a lotus position on the floor.
"You!" She pointed.
Nix immediately dodged her finger which was meant to point at him, instead it fell on another male.
'That was a close one. That female reminds me of my mother.' He heaved a sigh of relief, he didn't need involvement, why was he the center of everything?
[It sucks to be the main protagonist] Mune whispered into his ear.
Mune's appearance was starting to get random, but he couldn't care less, right now she was absolutely right, it would seem he was the main character.
'Shit! I revoke being the main protagonist. All I need is to right the wrongs caused to my family.' He replied firmly, he was a bit shocked he had readily taken them to be his family.
'What did I just say?!'
What happened to his previous life as an orphan? Was that life slowly slipping away and replaced with this character's life?
[That's what the main protagonist would say, hmmm...] Mune replied in a singsong voice.
'That is definitely not helping, you are meant to be of help to me not making it worse!' He frowned. He could sense footsteps approaching him.
[You're a walking powerhouse with a disaster and attention magnet tightly strapped to you, isn't that just great, master?] Mune squealed in delight, clearly not understanding the gravity of what she was saying.
He didn't have enough time to respond to Mune's words, a shadow had been cast on him by someone.
