The Goddess Made A Mistake Again

Chapter 287: 287 - Wilson's Overexpectations

Chapter 287: Chapter 287 – Wilson’s Overexpectations

After hearing the delirious screams of the rats and stomach filling of Kay Gon or who I now call Kay’s Gone. It was time to return back to the small custom made dorm room of mine.

Getting inside the academy wasn’t a problem. The guards didn’t say anything as I always kept their pockets semi full. I’m not going to pay them fully after the embarrassing take-down they took from Lazarus.

I understand he was quite experienced but losing consciousness with just one punch… now that’s embarrassing. They should be glad to still keep their jobs or I could have changed to people much suited then them.

Or I should change them to my ones…

As I was having a few ideas I came inside my dorm to find Wilson inside.

“Henry… what took you so long? Where were you?”

‘Hah… Wilson. The situation is strange here.’

‘I’m like the husband that’s coming back late at night after killing some people and you’re the wife who’s angry at her husband and probably thinks he’s cheating on her.’

‘The difference between us is that we’re not married or sleeping with each other… you’re not even a gal.’ I shake my head of the disturbing thought and smile at the guy.

“There’s the guy, congratulations on your win budd-”

“I lost.”

“Shit… really?” I raise a brow, “To who?”

“To Alex.” Wilson sighed, “The guy was too fast for my taste.”

“He was fast for an archer?”

“I know how that sounds but it’s really true. He ran so fast that my arrows couldn’t hit him and he was good at dodging too.” Wilson then sadly looked at the ring in his finger, “And even with the Frost Ring you gave me, I couldn’t defeat his fire.”

“Well, there’s no comparison to that one.” I say, sitting next to him. I pat his shoulders and explain, “That guys been using that ring for who knows how long. He had practice.”

“You on the other hand only got this ring yesterday. It would take a miracle for you to defeat him in sigmat experience.”

Wilson nodded but still sighed, “But you could have defeated him.”

“Wilson, Wilson, Wilson,” I slowly explain, “You can’t compare to me. I’m a monster, a talent-less creature, there’s no one in this definite reality that could transcend me in terms of talent and learning experience.”

“I’m just too good.”

As I say that, the image of Abigail’s mother Hysteria came to my mind. She was blowing me a kiss and winking at me… the problem was that, it was a very vivid image.

‘…Is she actually sending me this?’

As if being caught, Hysteria laughed a bit and the image went away. I throw away her thought. It would be take my mind to transcend beyond the realms of human self and godhood to understand that being.

There simply was no point.

“So you’re saying it’s impossible for me.”

“Hmm… it seems that living with me put you in a conundrum.” I say thoughtfully, “Your expectations have reached a limit that’s at my level.”

“You think so?” He asked.

“Tell me, Wilson, before we started living together and just met after winning the Chancion competition, did you have the same expectations like now? Did you ever think that you could beat me or come to my level?”

Wilson slowly straightened his posture as he realized, “Now that you say that… I really never had this much expectations. You are right, Henry.”

“Of course I am. It would be wrong for the world to not be.” I say as a matter of fact and Wilson didn’t deny it… oh goddess, he really is adapting to me.

I pat him again, “Don’t worry, that’ll go away after I leave this dorm and move into the Class A one.”

Wilson laughed, “Yeah, I forgot that you were going to win this Exam. So you’ll be leaving me all alone then.”

“Well not really, we can always go out for some fun.” I suggest, “Let’s make it this way that every week, we will go out together, me, you and Alex. All three of us, okay.”

He smiled, “That sounds like a great plan.”

“And even if I’m gone, you still have Alex, Arthur and Xavier… forget the Xavier part.”

“Just remember that you don’t wind up like those two… then your expectations going to be realllly high.”

“Hahaha…” Wilson laughed, wiping a twinkle in his eyes, “I’m gonna miss having fun with you like this.”

“Well, take this as a reminder.” I give him a resolute look, “Get stronger, fight talented people, get your grades up and finally win the competitions and exams ahead, then we’ll be together in the same class once more.”

“Now that is a grand plan.”

“And to sweeten the deal even more.” I say and show him my pink water ring, “I’ll give you a Pink Sigmat Ring to you.”

“What!” Wilson stood up in shock, “I can’t take that. It’s too expensive. Besides I still haven’t paid back for this blue one.”

“Who said, I’m giving you this one? This one’s a family inheritance, I was talking about another one.” I stand up and smile amusingly, “And why are you saying like you have already won, hah… there’s still a long road ahead of you, Wilson Farrow.”

“Become the sharpest Archer and rings like this wouldn’t be away from your reach any longer.” I pocket the ring, “Who knows maybe one day you might have one that goes beyond a pink one.”

…

The next morning came and both Wilson and I sat at the Arena. Because of our involvement in the exam, both of us got VIP seats.

“And here comes out our semi-final contenders!” Falbic screamed out and called, “First off, it’s Alex Atreides from Class F!”

Alex walked in coolly like he wasn’t nervous one bit. But I could see the slight shake of his eyes and knew that he felt nervous, just knew how to hide it better than anyone.

This time he wore different clothes too, gone was the gladiator style armor and now he had full plated steel armor with a chain-mail to the chest. He’s whole body starting from head to toe was covered and he had a sharp sword too… much sharper than the previous one.

The academy upgraded his armor seeing he went so far.

“GO ALEX! BRING US THE WIN!” I call out to him as Wilson lifted a ‘Alex Atreides’ paper sign with his hands.

This was another benefit with VIP seats, we could call out and cheer the fighters.

Alex smiled seeing that and he’s nervousness went away.

‘Those guys… in front of so many people.’

“Some friendly love there!” Falbic said and brought in the final one, “And here’s Alvin Gorder.”

Unlike what others thought, Alvin didn’t change his outfit. He didn’t need to, he already had the best money could buy.

Anti-Manic high grade armor, A Lance signified as a Sigmat Weapon, A Blue Rank Sigmat Ring… this guy was packing serious punch.

No wonder, Arthur was sent to the hospital in the novel fighting against this guy. Ultimately Arthur won but it almost cost him his life.

Speaking about that guy, he was still hanging about by his breath. The doctors didn’t have much hope for the guy and said to not waste much money on him.

But I was sure he’d survive… he is the Protagonist after all.
