The Huntsman Of Death:A Gamer's POV As Side Character

Emilia Lisabeth, the homeroom teacher of class AB214. Being in charge of high-ranking and low-ranking spoiled brats wasn't something to be trifled with.

"I see... You had it tough." A pity flashed in her eyes as she observed the bandage wrapped around me after I narrated the tale of how I was stuck in the calamity of demon land.

"The emergence of gates and voids from the abyss has been quite spontaneous recently. Who knows when the calamity will strike you? But what were you doing there?" she inquired.

"I had a few friends whom I had to meet," I lied, hoping for her not to ponder.

As gamers believe, being an orphan is the best person to possess, as it would get rid of many problems.

"Whatever! Thankfully, you aren't one of those spoiled brats who have given up." Emilia spoke and then paused a bit as she observed me up and down.

"I hope you don't lose your vigor. The limitations imposed on your body aren't absolute. As long as one strives forward and pushes the boundaries, you will see the result."

"As they say, where there is a will, there is a way."

I nodded, appreciating her efforts.

She wasn't a kind individual, but she was a respectful teacher who didn't treat students partially. Being someone of commoner origin who reached her position, she knew the effects of talents, blessings, and limits.

"You can leave, but make sure to attend class regularly."

I stood up, gave a bow, and left.

...

Seeing his back, Emilia opened the tabs and looked into the data.

"Lukas Star... Nothing about him is similar to a person who ranked low. From the way he carries himself to his mannerisms, his behavior, and the confidence oozing out of his eyes, all of it is way different from the way he behaved previously."

Since the academy allowed people to stay early as a kind gesture, the staff made sure to keep tabs on them.

Lukas Star always had that gloomy, cowardly aura. Before bullies, he was the first one to break down. But all of this changed after that fall.

Thinking this, she lampooned her judgment and looked at the crystal placed on the table beside her.

It was a blessed crystal that would brighten, giving a certain reaction upon sensing wraiths and specters if they passed or stayed near here.

She guessed that Lukas was under their influence because these ghosts often preyed on negative feelings.

And many low-rankers had given their souls in exchange for power.

However…

"For now, everything seems alright."

...

As I walked to the cafeteria, I couldn't help but wipe the beads of sweat off my forehead. Describing that brief moment, I felt as if I was sitting on fine needles.

I didn't think it was cumbersome until I saw a pyramid decoration, which in truth was a blessed crystal artifact of the Orthodox Church.

A person influenced by a specter or wraith would try to avoid it, while the crystal, sensing their presence, would light up.

For the actual mechanism, it detects the malevolent energy of the abyss, and that is what scared me because my body had trapped the essence of the abyss.

If it reacted, the seemingly understanding lady would turn into my worst nightmare.

Emilia Lisabeth wasn't a heroine, but she could be considered one of the main cast, playing an important role later.

She was a lead figure of the House of Commoners, a parliamentary body that took part in the implementation of laws, where the House of Lords, consisting of nobles, would debate. House Lords functioned like a parliament.

As for her strength, she could be considered a Clear Eclipse level. I don't know if she was now at the Ascended or Eclipse stage, as her exact power was revealed later.

And since the power level was based on corresponding stats, it was a bit difficult to identify unless you had special senses or eyes.

Spark, Acolyte, Warden, Sentient, Ascended, Eclipse, and Calamity corresponded to stats of below 1, 1-5, 5-10, 10-25, 25-50, 50-75, and 75-100.

After 100 would come Angels, and then God ranks.

"I need to be careful. This isn't a game with a lifeline revival at the save point. Anything can happen that may put me in danger."

As I found myself in the bustling crowd of students, I eyed the people forming a mouthful group of laughing smileys. Truly nostalgic scenes where friends mingled with one another.

If it were the prior Lukas, before I took over, he would have just walked around keeping his head down, finding it suffocating to even look into others' eyes due to self-esteem that had been crushed brutally.

Arriving at the bustling cafeteria located in the heart of the academy, the sounds of chatter and buzzing activity enveloped me. It was a popular gathering place for students, especially during this mid-morning hour. The aroma of freshly prepared food filled the air, tempting my senses.

Taking a moment to scan the array of options, I sought out a meal that would not only satisfy my hunger but also enhance my body. I couldn't hide the fact that I was a foodie, so I wanted something nourishing yet appetizing, and yeah, I wanted a good calorie-packed dessert at the end.

I was about to order when someone shouted.

"Step aside, pest!"

"Huh?" I turned back and saw a platinum-haired woman standing behind me, folding her hands.

"Huh! What did you say?"

"I didn't hear it properly."

The woman's expression turned into disgust as her eyes locked on mine.

"Haa! That's why I don't like commoners. Learn some manners. It's rude to make others repeat themselves."

"Now step back and let me order, commoner. As nobles, it's our right to step ahead of commoners."

I opened my lips to argue but shut up.

Knowing who she was, I immediately stepped aside to not drag matters.

The woman looked at me in approval and walked ahead, swaying her platinum-colored hair.

"It's good that you know your position as a pest."

She ordered some ultra-royal-level food and hired staff to carry it as she walked away towards the upper rooms.

"She is really more annoying in real life than in the game, but…"

'Let's see how much longer you can keep this up,' I thought inwardly as a sharp glint flashed in my eyes while I stared back.
