They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 417: The Pride of Omniora Academy

Somto hadn’t sent word ahead, everything had been too rushed, but he wasn’t worried. Confidence was his armor.

The moment he stepped into the office, the secretary barely glanced up. “The VC’s not available right now. Come back with an appointment.”

Her voice was flat, like it happened every day. She didn’t even notice the sound of his footsteps fading away, until something made her freeze. Slowly, she looked up.

There, towering before her, was Somto.

Her eyes widened. She jumped up from her seat. “Mr. Somto! You’re here. The VC will see you now.”

She didn’t bother to warn the VC first, Somto’s dark, serious face spoke louder than words.

Hurriedly, she opened the door, and Somto stepped inside. The man inside startled, ready to lash out, until he recognized who it was.

Somto gave Nnenna a quick look, signaling he would be back for her. Then, he closed the door behind him and disappeared into the office.

Nnenna blinked but quietly obeyed, standing just outside the door. Inside, the VC hurried toward Somto, his usual composure slipping into nervousness.

“Mr. Somto, you’re here. To what do we owe this pleasure?” the VC asked, voice a little shaky.

Logically, Somto had only been his student not so long ago. But now, standing before him was someone who had already achieved wonders, even before graduating. A genius, the pride of Omniora Academy. Somto’s limits seemed to stretch beyond the sky.

The VC swallowed hard, trying to mask his awe with forced authority. Then, in a louder voice, he barked, “Kate! What are you waiting for?! Go make some tea for our guest!”
