20 Get your own (1/2)
Helen caught him smiling. He looked at him with a mean gaze. But just as she wanted to scold him she saw his angelic smile which melted her heart for a million times. Then she remembered that he was the reason why she died as a virgin, and now, unluckily maybe she will die as an old maid again. She rolled her eyes and gave her a mocking look.
As the time flies, Henry was feeling so bored in his seat. He started to draw irregular shapes in his notebook, when he became tired he started to pinch Madels gloves, then he started pulling her hair under her veil and twirl it in his fingers. Then she would bring her hair closer to his nose and sniff it.
Francis then knew that Henry's group are odd indeed. He was shamelessly smelling her hair and to think that they are sitting in the front row. They looked like a flirting couple in broad daylight. Madel did not mind it at all. She is the only girl in class who was covered from head to toe and looked weird compared to her classmates.
Her hair is covered by veil and her nose and mouth was covered by a thin white mask. Her clothes tell that she is a very reserved lady but judging by her carefree attitude and naivety he can only judge that she is an easy prey.
Before going out of the classroom they were given a set of books to study and they were tasked to advance their cultivation. As for Madel who cannot cultivate she was given more books to study.
Francis asked them what cultivation is and how do they do it.
”First, you have to select what aspect of your life would you like to cultivate.” Henry said.
”aspect of my life?” Francis asked.
Henry explained that cultivation in Planet Rosetha is divided into 3, spiritual, mental, physical. Each are further subdivided into specialties. Like tempering of physique, use of weapons and so on. There are thousands of cultivation manual to choose from. He can choose anything as long as it fits his constitution and capability.
”how do I know that the technique fits me?” Francis asked.
”That, usually the clan elders who specializes in assessing a persons constitution is in charge of that matter.” Henry said.
Since Francis does not belong to any clan, he wont have anyone to help him with the cultivation technique.
”I will teach you how to cultivate.” Henry said as he saw Madel's glistening eyes.
For sure the young lady would tell Francis that they could learn cultivation technique together, or even volunteer to teach Francis herself. He gave Madel a sharp look. Madel gave him a smile in return. She always felt Henry's concern and caring nature despite his harshness most of the time. In fact she feels at ease and safe around him.
Cheska gave Henry a mischievous look.
