Chapter 223. Slut

"That’s it for the day," Professor Vhorn said.

The students revealed reluctant expressions. Clearly, they didn’t want the lecture to end.

The professor’s lecture was unlike anything they had experienced. Some of them were already starting to see a lot of improvement in their combat abilities.

But it was apparent that the professor was done for the day.

Quietly, the students returned back to their seats with sweat all over their bodies.

"Dismissed," Professor Vhorn said.

He left the lecture hall before any students could even reply.

"Damn... this man is indeed the real deal."

"He’s no joke. He is really experienced."

"I really pity those who were unable to attend the lecture because they are out of campus on missions."

"Indeed. They would have learnt a lot."

"Initially, I was skeptical about his methods. But I’m fully convinced that his methods will really help us in the long run. I’m taking on the high-difficulty mission he said we should take on every month as soon as possible."

"Didn’t you say you had a party to plan?"

"Screw that. Just like Professor Vhorn stated, we are all gonna enroll in the military anytime soon. If we don’t familiarize ourselves more with dangerous environments, we won’t even last a day at the frontlines."

"That’s true. Also, he made it clear that our contribution points will be used to grade us for the combat course. It means that those who take on these high-difficulty student missions and complete them will have high contribution points compared to others, and they will have better grades than others at the end of the semester."

"Seriously, I’m telling my friends about the lecture. This Professor Vhorn is not a joke."

"Heh, that’s what you are telling your friends about? I’m letting them know that the top-ranked student in the university was completely put in his place for trying to cause a ruckus in the lecture hall. That bastard is always walking around with a smug face. Won’t be bad to see him get humiliated."

"Heh-he."

"I honestly don’t care if you spread anything about me. I have been an ass to everyone, and I apologize. From now on, I will do better." Alfonse bowed to the rest of the students and apologized.

He turned to look at Calerina.

"As for you, I’m sorry, but we can’t continue dating. You hooked up with a couple of dudes on that ship, and some of them even took pictures of you guys when you were doing it. I can’t marry a slut."

Quickly after he spoke, he left. Alfonse had decided to turn over a new leaf. The lesson Professor Vhorn had taught him today had opened his eyes. In this world, individual power was everything. He wouldn’t waste his time on unnecessary people from now on. Neither did he have to present an overbearing front to others to demonstrate that he was powerful. Professor Vhorn was always polite. He was so confident in who he was that he didn’t see the need to behave otherwise. Alfonse wanted to even ask Professor Vhorn to become his master the next time the man came to lecture them. He could learn a lot from Professor Vhorn.

"I don’t know if he will accept me as his disciple, but it will be worth a shot to ask him," he mused inwardly to himself as he left the lecture hall under the shocked gazes of the other students, who were flabbergasted by his sudden change in attitude.

Was this the kind of effect Professor Vhorn could have on students?

They wondered.

"Not even the instructors of the Adams Secret Sect could have this much of an effect on me," Alfonse Adams thought as he walked through the hallway. "Not even Uncle Cosmo could beat this level of transformation into me back then. I miss Uncle Cosmo, though. Because of how the sect treated him, he decided not to return when he left. Where the hell is he? At this point, finding him and convincing him to return on Mum’s behalf will prove futile."

Little did he know that his long-lost uncle was closely associated with Professor Vhorn, the man he desperately wanted to ask to accept him as his disciple after his next lecture.

Back in the lecture hall, Calerina looked at the ground with shock on her face.

"He’s changed. The look in his eyes when he looked at me... Alfonse was not kidding. He’s done with me," Calerina thought. "What the hell have I done?"

Although Alfonse used to be an asshole, he never hit her or treated her badly. Even if she was not okay with his personality, the best thing to have done would have been to politely end things with him, instead of cheating on him overseas.

"I suppose I need to tell Father that we are done. It’s not like our engagement was political. We were both genuinely interested in each other, so there won’t be any repercussions. Why did I have to mess everything up?" she added.

The other students looked at her with different expressions.

Some of the ladies were happy that her relationship had come to an end; they were jealous of her relationship with Alfonse, after all.

The gentlemen who also wanted to have a relationship with her were happy that things didn’t work out between them.

Now, they could shoot their shots.

The students trailed out of the lecture hall.

News about Professor Vhorn’s lecture spread throughout Sauna City University rapidly.

The fourth-year students had discussed the lecture with their friends, who had in turn discussed it with others.

Also, all lecture halls had video recording nano-cameras there.

These devices were put there in case of emergencies. It was to ensure that during training, issues that happened could be viewed transparently and appropriate measures could be used to handle them.

Students and professors could also use contribution points to download these lectures during their own free time and listen to them.

Because of these cameras, the lecture had been recorded.

Currently, many students and professors were actually going through them.

It was not natural for something like this to happen.

But Aiden Vhorn was someone famous throughout Endra now. Also, his name carried a lot of weight, not just because he was a professor of a warrior university, but because he was a terrifying madman and a genius himself, and he was the disciple of the third strongest person on Endra, Armstrong Lee.

Everything he did was bound to draw attention and make people curious about him.
