Chapter 54 Earth's Supreme Academy
“Sir this way please”, the man said immediately after he recognized the person,
Meanwhile, the person who had just left the car nodded and walked behind the man. Behind the person was a young girl about 10 years of age and also a middle-aged woman.
The young girl seemed to be in high spirits as she curiously looked over at her surroundings while also frequently talking to the middle-aged women beside her.
Like this, the trio followed the man towards their location as they passed through the doors and entered a big hall.
The hall was large enough to accommodate 200 people easily while its interior was lavishly decorated with a large table in the middle and sofas to the side while several paintings were hung on the walls.
Though the hall did not seem cozy for a family to reside, it was the best definition of the word ‘extravagant’, with everything being so expensive that even Ray was disgusted by it as he felt looking at the hall akin to looking at nothing more than a pile of dazzling trash.
After all, no matter how much expensive, or extravagant one makes it look, trash will always remain trash.
While many would disagree with it, Ray was not the one to disagree, for he felt utterly disgusted by such extravagant lifestyles. Moreover, his mother also shared the same sentiment as even her nose was crooked upon such sight.
‘sigh’,
“It’s been the twelfth house that we looked for, and even though we specified to be shown to a house with a simplistic design. All they show us are piles and piles of crap”. Ray said as he turned his attention away from the hall and towards his mother.
“Mind your language, young man, and for the house, I say you just wait for some time as the specifics you provided are hard to find in today’s era”, Ray’s mother said along with a glare that made Ray fix his speech in front of his little sister.
On the other hand, seeing their buyer’s expressions. The man in charge knew that they did not like this house as well and that too is the twelfth house.
The man felt disgruntled but did not voice out his complaints and kept a welcoming expression, for he had already been paid an amount in advance to show them these houses.
“I guess it’s enough for today, let’s check the remaining locations tomorrow”, said Ray.
“Yes sir, no problem, just remember to inform Mr. Waltz when you need to check the remaining locations”, the man replied earnestly, for he was also relieved that the long day had ended.
Ray along with his mother and sister walked back to the car as they proceeded to leave the location. The trio then sat in the vehicle whilst Ray drove off towards a restaurant for lunch.
…..
“Ice cream!!, I want to eat ice cream”,
“Katie you know you can’t only eat ice cream, why not eat your food before having ice cream”, Ray’s mother confronted Katie, who had puffed out her cheeks in anger for not getting any ice cream.
Ray looked at all of this and couldn’t help but smile as his body felt warm. After all, for him, the family was the most important thing in life while everything else came later.
“Why don’t we have a deal, you finish your food and I will buy you a big tub of chocolate ice cream all for yourself”, Ray said as he saw his mother failing to convince his sister to eat.
“Ray you know she won’t eat”, Ray’s mother said, but Ray just replied,
“Let it be mom, let her have some fun. It will serve as a lesson as well”,
To this, Ray’s mother shook her head and continued with her lunch,
On the other hand, Katie’s eyes lit up as she heard the words, ‘big tub of ice cream, she hurriedly nodded to her brother and went on to eat her food hurriedly in fear of Ray changing his mind if she acted a bit late.
Ray chuckled at the sight of his sister trying to gobble down her food as fast as possible causing her cheeks to be so full that she can’t even speak.
The family continued to have lunch as they spent some good family time together.
Ray drove the car back to their apartment while his sister lay in her mother’s lap sleeping soundly like a cate while a smile hung on her face.
“Mom, what do you think we should do now”, Ray asked his mother in a low voice to not disturb his sister’s sleep.
“I don’t know son, we have a lot of resources at the moment and the priority is to find someplace so that we could move on with your plan, because, if what you said comes to be true, then we need to find a place as soon as possible and reinforce it”, Ray’s mother replied.
To this, Ray nodded and kept silent while the car continued to drive on towards their destination.
…..
While it was indeed as Ray’s mother had said, the biggest problem was, that Ray needed a place that had fewer luxuries and was made much more practically.
He did not need a place with large halls that were adorned with decorations and as such, what he needed was a place with rooms, safety, and enough area for training and strengthening one’s self.
After all, Ray knew that if the world of System Online descended on Earth and merged with it, there would be no other way but to train on Earth while training halls and such places would be needed the most for training those who did not obtain a system within System Online.
He did not know how, but Aurora had told him that everyone would awaken abilities and as such when the worlds would merge. There would be no age requirements and every human would get a chance to become stronger.
….
Ray mulled over the topic even after reaching his home, he lay in bed as he thought to himself,
“How and where do I build a stronghold for my family? I need a place that is not too dangerous while also allows us to remain low-key while providing the best facilities”,
He mulled over the question for half an hour before he went to sleep.
…..
The next day,
“Yawn”,
Ray woke up and jumped out of his bed and went on with his normal morning routine.𝐍𝑂𝑽𝔢𝗅𝑵𝓮xt.𝒞𝑶𝗆
His morning routine consisted of brushing his teeth and changing out of his pajamas and into training clothes.
He then proceeded to the roof of their building which at the moment was empty.
“Hwahh”,
After inhaling the fresh morning air, Ray got down to his daily exercise, as for what the exercise was,
” 100 Pushups, 100 Crunches, 100 squats, 100 pull ups, and a 5-kilometer run”,
Though this routine looked overkill for a normal human, for someone like Ray whose stats were well above forty while he was also at mid-intermediate in Mortal Realm.
Thus, to Ray, all this exercise was nothing but light exercise that he did only to warm up a bit and to get his mind clear.
After finishing his exercise, he came back home and took a bath,
‘ding!’,
After coming out of the bath, Ray proceeded to change his clothes when he received a mail on his phone,
He opened his phone to check the sender and realized it was the Academy For System Users, it seemed that they were finally starting the new session soon,
He read the contents of the mail and was stunned after reading a specific sentence,
“This is the joining certificate for ‘Earth’s Supreme Academy'”,
“Huh”, Ray raised an eyebrow as he thought,
“So it seems that the academy had started doing the changes, I like it, the name even more,
“Earth’s Supreme Academy”,
Let’s see what it holds for me”.
