Chapter 15 Kris' Secret?



Standing in front of the class, Ms. Gonzales looked at the students and said, "Last night I checked and scored the quiz that you took yesterday. Now, I will be handing back your papers to let you see your scores."

"When I call your name, come to me and take your paper, okay?"

"Yes, Miss."

After hearing the students reply, Ms. Gonzales started calling out the students\' names one by one.

"Guttierez."

"Fordan."

"Dela Cruz."

"Santos."

".."

The students obediently took their papers and looked at the scores marked at the top.

Some of them came back with a bright face while some can\'t hide their disappointment.

No need to ask, they probably got a low score.

After waiting for a while, soon Alex\'s name was called.

"Fernando."

(AN: These are their surnames, Alex Fernando is his whole name.)

Alex stood up, walked to the podium and received the paper from Ms. Gonzales.

Before handing him his paper, Ms. Gonzales called everyone in the class and said, "By the way, students, Alex scored the highest in yesterday\'s quiz, he got a perfect score."

"You should learn from him and study more."

After saying that, Ms. Gonzales gave Alex his paper and said, "Okay, you can go back now. Keep up the good work."

Alex smiled and took his paper before heading back to his seat.

Ms. Gonzales continued calling the students, handing back their papers.

But at this time, all eyes of the students are on Alex, looking at him with shock and surprise.

Usually, Alex doesn\'t do well in class since he has to work to make a living. That\'s why he doesn\'t have time to study.

Because of that, people don\'t pay attention to him. Also, since he\'s poor and his uniform looks old and dirty, no one really wants to interact with him.

But now, the guy that everyone usually ignores suddenly tops the surprise quiz!

Of course, there are also those who have doubts whether Alex cheated or not.

Alex didn\'t pay attention to everyone\'s eyes and just looked at his paper.

The \'100\' at the top of the paper written in red ink was very noticeable.

Seeing that, Alex felt great, but on the outside, he tried to look calm as much as possible.

\'This is so awesome! I only hoped that I would pass the quiz but I didn\'t expect to even perfect it!\' Alex thought, full of excitement in his heart.

But after a while, Alex soon returned to calm.

Thinking about it, this score is because of luck and not really because of him.

There\'s no reason that he should be this proud because of it.

Sighing, he folded his paper and placed it inside his bag.

Then, a resolute look appeared on his face and he said, "Someday, I will earn a perfect score with my own hard work and not rely on luck."

"What are you muttering about?"

At this time, Kris approached and looked at him curiously.

Alex shook his head, "It\'s nothing."

Then, he turned his gaze at her and asked, "Why are you coming over here?"

"Oh, I was just curious. Since when did you become such a smart guy?"

Hearing her question, Alex showed a shocked look and jokingly said, "Wha?! As my only friend, how could you not know that I\'ve been smart since the beginning?!"

Kris rolled her eyes at him, saying, "Whatever, anyway, I\'m happy that you top this quiz. Even though it\'s just a quiz, this at least shows that you\'re starting to care more about your studies."

After saying that, Kris went back to her seat and looked at Ms. Gonzales at the front.

Looking at Kris, Alex felt some emotion in his heart that he was not sure about.

The only way he could describe it was, it\'s warm.

He smiled a little and turned his eyes back at Ms. Gonzales.

Soon, all the papers were given and the class started normally.

12PM.

The school bell rang signifying lunch break and everyone stood up from their seats to grab something to eat.

Alex and Kris went to the cafeteria to eat together.

After waiting in a long line of students, the two successfully bought their lunch and sat on an empty table.

While eating, Alex and Kris chatted about some things that they find worthy of talking about.

After some time, Kris looked at Alex and asked, "Alex, did you see the news about the missing students?"

Nodding, Alex disinterestedly said, "You mean those guys that went missing last week, right?"

"Yeah, I saw that one, what about it?"

"Well, isn\'t it scary? Students are going missing for unknown reasons. What if they were kidnapped?"

Alex put on a thoughtful look then casually said, "That\'s unfortunate if they were really kidnapped."

"Since a week has already and no one contacted them yet, the kidnapper wanting ransom is low."

"Meaning, those students could already be dead or imprisoned somewhere."

Kris slowly nodded, "Yeah, that could be the case."

Then, she suddenly looked at Alex and mysteriously said, "But what if it was actually caused by something supernatural?"

Hearing Kris\' words, Alex finally showed an interest in the topic.

"Huh? What do you mean?" He asked while looking at Kris.

Normally, Alex wouldn\'t show in such a topic.

But what he experienced in the past two days were quite magical which made him interested in anything that might relate to it.

Kris smiled seeing that he got Alex\'s attention.

She said, "You remember that my family can be considered rich in our city, right?"

Alex nodded.

Kris continued, "Actually, that\'s just what\'s shown on the outside."

"The truth is, our family is the top power in Pearl City."

Pausing for a bit, Kris showed a solemn look and said, "I want to tell you something, Alex."

Getting to this part, Kris moved over to Alex\'s side.

She got closer to him until they were just inches away from each other.

Kris whispered to him, "Alex, I have a skill called \'Appraisal\' and I know you have been in to the Alter Dimension."
