Story Breaker-Chapter 20: Kaph (1)

Chapter 20 - Kaph (1)

Yoon Harin woke up, and her body was sore all over, yet she forced herself to get ready for the day.

The moment she was done, she quickly ran out of her room and made her way out of the female dorms, headed toward Eden's main building while following multiple other cadets.

'Fuck... did I go overboard yesterday?....'

Yoon Harin sighed as she finally reached the entrance, staring at the massive door with a few holographic signs on the sides that showed various information about Eden. She quickly followed the other cadets around her inside and into the lobby.

The main lobby was a large hexagonal room that had a spiral staircase at the center, surrounding a smaller room that a few cadets were entering.

Above the room was a sign that read 'C.T.C' in big bold letters, with smaller text underneath that read 'Cadet, Teleportation, Chamber.'

At each side of the room, including the entrance, were massive doors, two on the right and two on the left side of the staircase.

The floor was light gray marble, and the walls were painted white, filled with various pictures and paintings. A red carpet lay at the entrance and center of the room, splitting off in four directions.

In a few corners of the lobby, there were various seating areas, some of which were occupied by cadets chatting away, as well as small decorations such as potted plants.

Yoon Harin headed toward the room surrounded by the staircase and was suddenly approached by a humanoid robot that spoke in a monotone voice.

"Please verify your identification, Cadet."

'Oh shit... what do I do?...'

Yoon Harin paused for a moment as information from her skills filled her mind. She quickly reached into her uniform pocket and pulled out her keycard for her dorm room, handing it to the robot. The robot took her keycard in its hands and quickly began scanning it.

*Dudududu~ Ding!*

The robot began speaking in a more jolly tone the moment the scan was completed.

"Scan complete! Welcome, first-year cadet Yoon Harin, to the cadet teleportation chamber. Please be patient until your name is called for you to be transported to your classroom!"

The robot politely bowed while handing Yoon Harin her keycard, which had now changed completely, featuring a photo of her in the corner of the card and a list of information about her, such as her age, '20', her birthday, '10/9/2028', gender, dorm room number, and finally her class, 'Kaph #1'.

'Oh, everything seems right... besides the fact that my birthday is wrong and the fact I am in Arthur Corvin's class...'

'I guess being put in that class is the best option for me... most of the Kaph classes get wiped out later in the story...'

'Especially during the events that happen in Eden...' 

Yoon Harin looked around the room one more time for an open seat to wait in and found one near the back.

She quickly sat down on a sofa that allowed her to rest her aching body from the previous day and after a few minutes of various names being called, it was finally Yoon Harin's turn...

"Yoon Harin, you may now enter the C.T.C!"

'Finally... I feel like I was waiting for an eternity...'

She quickly got up and entered the chamber with a few other cadets, and after a few more seconds, the door to the chamber closed as a robotic voice inside the room slowly counted down.

"Teleportation in 3... 2... 1..."

*BEEEEEEEM!*

The room was suddenly filled with light, and Yoon Harin felt her aching body heal as she suddenly appeared at the entrance of a large classroom. She quickly went inside and looked around the room.

The classroom had multiple windows at the back and left side of the room. In front of the windows was a descending staircase leading to seats and tables in five rows, with a few of the seats occupied by a small number of cadets.

At the front of the room was a small podium with a large digital screen behind it, and to the right of that was the door to the classroom.

Yoon Harin hesitated for a moment before walking up the steps, taking the back corner seat, and sitting down while scanning the five other cadets in the room one by one.

First, she scanned a man with a slender build who sat in front of the classroom. He had white hair and circular glasses.

'Oh, the strategist of the Kaph Class #1... He's one of the few cadets in this class who actually make it to their third year...'

Next, she scanned a woman with black hair in a ponytail who had a rose in her hair and hazel eyes, sitting a few seats in front of her and slowly falling asleep.

[Name: Rose Solís]

'Rose Solis... The rose obsessed woman who loves roses more than anything in the world...'

Yoon Harin scanned the man sitting on the other side of the room from her, who had navy and white hair and was asleep against the table.

[Name: Cassius Gray]

[Title: Lazy Bastard, Blind Warrior, Enchanter, 'Cassy']

[Job: First Year, Eden Cadet]

[Rank: S]

[Skills: [Lawless] [Enchantment]

'Cassy, or Cassius Gray... Right... The blind man who becomes the greatest enemy to Arthur later in the story, but... he's lazy as fuck...'

'I cant really stop him right now... doubt I can even can, he's gonna be useless in the first half of the story anyways but maybe I can use him later on...'

She scanned the man sitting next to him, who was tossing and catching a ball in the air. He had blonde hair in a man bun, brown eyes, and a scar across his nose bridge.

[Name: Lucas Walker]

[Title: Flashing Duelist, Saint]

[Job: First Year, Eden Cadet]

[Rank: A-]

[Skills: [Flashing Steps] [Duel]

[Age: 20]

[Status: Zoned Out]

[You do not have the required level to see more information]

'Lucas Walker, the man whom Arthur Corvin calls his closest ally and friend...'

Yoon Harin looked at the last person, a woman sitting two rows in front of Cassius and Lucas; she had short black hair and blue eyes, and she was messing around with her system with a smile on her face.

[Name: Ivy Lockhart]

[Title: Archer of the Sun, Gun Hater, Cold Hearted]

[Job: First Year, Eden Cadet]

[Rank: A+]

[Skills: [Apollo's Arrow] [Bind]

[Age: 20]

[Status: Happy]

[You do not have the required level to see more information]

'Ivy Lockhart, the archer who hates guns and one of the first cadets to die in this class... She wasn't really important, but apparently, she's decently strong...'

'I think that's enough scanning people for one day; I'm starting to get a headache from the overload of information...'

Yoon Harin sighed while making some mental notes on everyone so far, ranking them in 'importance' and 'potential' to help her survive till the end.

'Cassius is the best one so far IF I can turn him into my ally. Next would probably be either Faust or Lucas for their high survival rate in the story, skills, and connections.'

'Next would be Ivy, she's pretty strong on her own, and her skill set is solid, but there's one problem.... she dies pretty early on, and I doubt I can save her...'

'Last option, Rose. She's more of a solo savior and dislikes teamwork, but she gets a pretty good healing ability later on that she doesn't use at all. But if I convince her, maybe she will heal and help me...'

After a few minutes of planning for the future, more cadets began filling in the seats around the classroom.

Suddenly, Yoon Harin heard someone call her name from beside her.

"Hey, Harin, can I sit here?"

'Where the fuck did he come from?...'

She looked up to see Arthur standing next to the open seat beside her.

'I swear, this guy...'

"Hey, don't forget my last name.... We're not close."

"Ah, sorry? I thought we were after the entrance exam."

Yoon Harin sighed. "No, we aren't, especially after you almost got me eliminated. But whatever... sit there if you want."

"Sorry about that..."

"Just shut up."

Hesitantly, Arthur sat down next to Yoon Harin, seemingly still feeling guilty from before. The moment he sat down, the teacher of this class entered the room. Yoon Harin stared at the man, Kaito Umezawa, as he walked up to the podium in front of the classroom.

Here's what anthophile means: its a person who loves flowers, derived from the Greek words "anthos" (flower) and "philein" (to love).
