Chapter 126

“Anthea, you can go back to your seat. From now on, if you want to take a nap during my class, you can.”

“Thank you.” replied Anthea.

As Anthea made her way back to her desk, the teacher continued, “If any of you can be as brilliant as Anthea here, solving complex problems in your sleep, then you can do whatever you like in my class too! I’ll turn a blind eye even if you start daydreaming about space! But if you can’t, then pay attention! I believe that one day, you’ll all be just as amazing!”
