Chapter 31

As the principal, Levi wasn’t gonna stand by and watch Elysia mess up her future. “Elysia, you can pick any class but Class 6” he said, leaning forward in his seat.

“I’m dead set on Class 6,” Elysia shot back, her voice as solid as a rock.

“Class 6 is a no–go for you. It’s packed with kids who couldn’t care less about hitting the books. You’re gonna fall behind for sure,” Levi warned, his brow furrowed in concern.

Elysia got what Levi was saying, but she wasn’t buying it. She thought Class 6 was right up her alley.

She said, “So what if they’re not bookworms? There’s more to life than just studying, and I don’t think they’ll bring me down.

“Sir, I want Class 6. I’m not looking to slack off. I’ll promise you, if my grades take a nosedive, I’ll transfer to another class in a heartbeat. Sound good?”

Levi was torn. He could tell Elysia had her heart set on Class 6, but he was worried sick about her future. With how she treated school like a game, moving her to Class 6 felt like giving her free rein.

If she ended up chilling like the rest of Class 6, he’d lose a student who had the potential to nail the SATs, maybe even be the top dog in Sivro.

“Sir, I’ve already put my word out there. If my grades dip, I’m out of Class 6 and into whatever class you say. What do you say?” Elysia said, her voice firm.

“Really, you’ll do whatever I say?” Levi asked, raising an eyebrow.

“I’m good for my word,” Elysia assured, nodding.

“Alright then, you’re cool with being serious in class and not causing any trouble?” Levi continued, his eyes searching hers.

Elysia frowned. “When have I ever caused trouble?”

“Just humor me. Will you or won’t you?” Levi prompted, his tone serious.

“Sure thing,” Elysia agreed, shrugging.

“Deal. I’ll let you transfer to Class 6,” Levi said, his mind already racing through the plan. If her grades slipped, he’d have her switch classes, and hopefully, he’d get her to focus on her studies
