Chapter 16 The Most Challenging Job
Vanessa was sitting there, behind the desk, wearing the same outfit all the teachers had — different from the sexy clothes she had on her home.
Still, her black hair was tied in a ponytail, and how she put the pen on her lips, looking toward Damian like a wolf looking at a deer, was too much.
Damian nervously made his way toward his seat, and no one paid attention to him, as he had fewer friends, so no one questioned his strange behavior.
"Is everyone here? Good, let class start," Vanessa said, getting up from her desk and writing her name on the board behind her.
"My name's Vanessa, and I will be responsible for teaching you how to control your abilities better and much more," she said.
While Wayne focused on how to fight in general, using their abilities and weapons, and how to train their bodies, Vanessa researched all types of skills and knew the best ways to train them.
She was like a living book, spending most of her time reading and acquiring much information about things, especially the special abilities granted by the superhuman serum.
"The first thing you should know is that abilities are classified differently, according to not only their type but their rarity and their grade," Vanessa said, writing more things on the board.
"There are seven grades known for now, and most of you have grade 3 abilities, which is higher than the average and is still something you can evolve through time,"
"Those with grade 1 and 2 abilities are usually stuck in those levels, but those with grade 3 and beyond can practice and get better, reaching higher levels. Our school only accepts those with at least a grade 3 ability for that reason."
Damian made sure to write everything he believed was necessary in his notebook, as he had promised Vanessa he would pay attention to her class. The subject she was responsible for teaching was the one Damian had the most interest in — as he was someone who could buy abilities with Erotic Coins!
So, knowing more about the abilities and how to practice them was what Damian wanted to know the most. It did not matter if he was not the most talented combat student. He would still win the fights having multiple abilities as an advantage, something the others could only dream of.
"Each of you has a unique ability, but that does not mean other people don't have something similar. You can have similar abilities that only have slight differences, which is why the training methods we developed will work for all of you."
Vanessa explained many things, things Damian needed to learn. First, the dungeons had appeared a few decades ago, and with it, the humans developed the superhuman serum, granting them the power to fight the beasts.
Some prerequisites to getting the serum were having at least 16 years of age, and all the schools for superhumans only accepted those who were at least 18 years old.
But, in the past decades, humans used the serum before that, resulting in kids acquiring powers earlier, but with the cost of a high chance of dying in the process.
So, that is why laws were made so that kids and teenagers could not get the serum — it worked for the general population, but illegal usage of the serum was still common and was actually growing with the recent beast attacks.
"I know the abilities of everyone here," Vanessa said, making some students whisper to each other after hearing that.
"I know how you feel about it, but the school has the files, and knowing you means we have better ways to train you. That said, I will give each of you a piece of paper with a method for training. This is from my research, as well as from the research of others. You can go to the library to check the sources to know I am not lying."
Vanessa then gave each student a piece of paper containing a specific training method, depending on the student's unique ability.
"We will head out to the open field, and I will watch all of you and give you pointers," Vanessa said.
When she went to Damian's desk, Vanessa slowly put the paper on it, making sure to go down, showing the upper part of her breasts. It was fast, and only Damian saw anything, and he also smelled the fragrance, making his body feel strange things, especially in his parts.
Still, if he excluded the fact Vanessa was hot and she was trying to get close to him for some reason, he enjoyed her class.
It took a lot of work to teach others how to use their abilities better, considering each student had a different one, so the training method would vary from one to another. So Vanessa had to do a special training for each student, and keep watching them individually.
Damian sincerely believed Vanessa had the most challenging job among the teachers, as others could teach things that would work for everyone, yet she had to work individually.
But that did not change the fact she was suspicious, and Damian would not fall for her pretty face and incredible body.
"Let's see what this paper has," he thought, reading the page Vanessa gave him.
He read all of it and was sure it was a good piece of information — because he read similar things in the library, something the other students did not and would not, probably.
After giving everyone their paper, Vanessa ordered them to follow her to the courtyard. They did not go to the gym like Wayne's class but went to the nearby forest, as their class would happen in the open.
There was one person who enjoyed how things were working out, Magnus.
"A class in the wilderness? This is my chance to prove my value! Also, Damian, we have our bicep workout later, and this is our last class of the day, so don't run from me!"
"…"
Damian did not feel like going to the gym to train, but if his friend wanted, why not? It was not like Magnus was a scary dude or something like that…
