Chapter 193: Start of exam week
Weeks before the final exam week, most students had been studying nonstop in preparation for their final exam. Everyone could feel the change of atmosphere in the school, a mix of feelings in the air.
And now, exam week finally arrived whether or not they were prepared for it.
Atlas sat down in his respective spot, his expression fiercer than ever. This week would decide... Penny’s money’s fate. He closed his eyes and tried to keep his mind clear of unnecessary thoughts. However, just as he did, Theo’s voice rang from somewhere in his vicinity.
"Well, Atlas."
Atlas didn’t want to open his eyes and taint his concentration. But sensing the guy’s presence from his side, a shallow breath slipped past him and reluctantly opened his eyes.
Theo smiled, watching Atlas’s eyes crack open. "I see you’re really taking this seriously."
"Don’t you?"
"Haha. Of course, I also take this seriously." Theo laughed and casually tapped Atlas’s shoulder. "But you have to chill out. I mean, most of us don’t expect to actually beat the star section."
"Most... of you," Atlas corrected in the same flat tone. "I’m not included."
The smile on Theo’s face twitched, laughing a bit more. "Atlas, don’t tell me you really think you can steal a seat in the star section?"
This time, Atlas didn’t respond.
With the lack of response, Theo laughed even louder.
