The Author's POV

Chapter 478

'Oh god.'

The moment I turned my head and my eyes met with the person who had called out for me, a groan couldn't help but escape from my mouth.

"What are you doing here?"

"What do you mean? This is my classroom."

Placing her hands on her hips, Sophia pouted.

"I'm more offended by the fact that you didn't notice me at all."

"Mhhh."

I casually nodded.

Because my focus had been on the professor the entire time, I didn't notice Sophia at all.

Which would've been for the best since her appearance gave me a headache.

Pinching the middle of my brows, I asked.

"Anyways, what do you need from me?"

"How rude, I was just here to say hi to you."

"Okay, hello, now go away." I bluntly replied, while shooing her away with my hands.

However, it didn't seem like she managed to get the message as she took out her phone and shoved it in my face.

"So rude, anyways, I have something else to talk to you about. Please for the love of god stop this guy."

"Who?"

Moving my head back to get a better look at what she was showing, my eyes squinted.

"...What the."

My eyes dilated.

"Give me that."

Snatching the phone from her hand, I leaned my body closer to get a better look.

[Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.]

Shivers.

The exact moment my eyes paused on the image and I read the caption, my body started to shiver uncontrollably.

'Oh my god, Kevin...'

Raising my head, I handed the phone back to Sophia before muttering.

"He needs to be stopped."

"Right?"

Sophia took the phone back.

"Please do something about it."

Crossing my arms together, I nodded my head in agreement.

"I'm with you on this one."

What Kevin was posting was a menace to society. He needed to be stopped at all costs.

"Ehm, I'm sorry if I'm interrupting you two, but..."

It was then that I finally took notice of the other person beside Sophia.

Once my eyes paused on her, my brows creased a little.

Setting her looks aside, the first thing that surprised me about her was her aura. It was wild and powerful. If I had to make a guess, she was in the early stages of rank.

Given that this was the second year, her achievements were quite outstanding.

Feeling her gaze all over me, before I could ask her purpose, she suddenly spoke up. Her eyes burned with fighting spirit.

"How strong are you?"

My brow raised.

"That's a bit of a random question."

However, taking note of the wild aura revolving around her, I instantly understood she was what some might call a 'battle junky.'

Scratching the side of my neck, I looked up for a moment.

"How strong I am? ...Well, did you not watch me during the tournament?"
