Chapter 32: The Scheme

As he was about to exit of the hall, he heard the same familiar raspy voice that had spoken out earlier.

"What's your name boy?" Sighing softly to himself, be had to contain his rising anger 'I just want to leave this place to test my strength, is that too much to ask?' David thought while turning around.

He didn't want to appear disrespectful so he answer the old man patiently.

"I'm David, you can also call me Dav. Can I leave now?" he was already getting impatient with these people.

The old man behind the desk, leaned backwards in his chair, he scanned David from head to toe. Ignoring his question. The man spoke up after a while.

"Alright Dav, it has been a very long time since someone dared to call me 'Old Man'. You must be a new student right?." The old man spoke up indifferently.

Before waiting for David's reply, the Prof spoke out once more.

"The tank you jumped out from Is called an Energy Tank. And to use an Energy tank, there have to be a payment of 50 Gyno points for each usage." After saying all this, the prof went back to viewing the holographic report he was previously inspecting, ignoring the stunned David.

Normally, to use the Energy Tank, one has to pay 50 Gyno points to utilize a low grade Energy Tank.

Energy tanks are graded by the amount of purity included in them. A low grade Energy Tank contains a high amount of impurities in them almost taking up a 50 percent of the energy tank which are harmful to ones body and progress , but they also contain 50 percent of energy in them.

Too much impurities could shorten the time for one to lose control. It means it could lead to one losing control at a more faster speed.

David's smiling expression had long since turned blank In that moment.

Although he might seem as if he doesn't care much about things, he still knew what 50 Gyno points are worth and he knew they were worth a lot. Since the school gave he only 100 Gyno Points. Now, the old man was telling him he had to pay half of the Gyno points given to him by the institute for something he doesn't know about.

Find, he gained a lot from soaking in the energy tank, but the main theme here is, he didn't want to soak in there himself, and neither did he implore anyone to place him there, so it technicality wasn't his fault.

Thinking up to here, he turned around slowly to face the old man's desk. His formally confident attitude had home through a 360 degree change.

"Sir, Since I didn't come here my self, I clearly didn't ask to be out here. So technically, it isn't my price to pay, I'm I right sir?." David said while smiling politely at the old man.

Upon seeing the clear changes in David's attitude, the interns couldn't help but blink their eyes rapidly in surprise.

The blond haired guy wasn't even surprised at the change, he had already expected something like that from the shameless young man.

He only wanted David to quickly step out of the hall. Once outside the hall, he couldn't wait to see what David's expression would be.

The reason was that, the institute has a type of rule, if David came out of the Lab without paying for the energy tank he had used, he would be forced to pay twice the amount of Gyno points the moment he set his foot outside the Lab. It would still be automatically deducted from his Account.

And if he doesn't have the necessary amount of Gyno points to Exchange, he would be automatically assigned forcefully to a specific task for a specific amount of time by the institute.

That was the Moment the blond boy was waiting for, he could imagine how the other boy's expression would be, and that got him excited. That was the reason he instigated David, to make him leave the lab in anger without paying, so he could finally teach the boy a lesson on behalf of the professor to gain the professor's approval and favor.

Upon seeing the change of David's attitude, the prof raised his eyebrow in slight surprise. After a moment, the corner of his mouth tilted upwards lightly.

"Hmm, your explanation was slightly convincing, go ahead if you think you don't have to pay." the professor's smile widened as he rested his chin with his hands resting on the antique table.

David heaved a soft sigh of relief when he heard this. He put on the brightest smile he could possibly muster and smiled towards the old man.

"Really? Then I will have to thank you sir then. I will take my leave now." David thanked the old man and turned to leave.

The old man's smile widened when he saw David leaving.

Although David doesn't like thinking too deeply into things, his brain soon found that something was wrong with the old man's words and also the atmosphere, he chose to ignore it, but his body was soon reacting to something as his eyes appeared to droop slightly.

He couldn't possibly ignore it this time. He turned around again to face the old man.

"Do I really not have to pay?" David asked again.

The man's smirked and said "Of course, you could chose not to pay if you so wish."

When he heard the words, David's smiling expression had turned expressionless. The man's words clearly meant that he could chose not to pay, but he clearly didn't explain what would happen later and from the old man's smiling expression, he was smiling as if wanting to watch a show. Even all of the interns especially that blond hair bastard had the same face, his expectant expression is more than disturbing.

'An old man like you being so petty, how shameless could you possibly be?' As David thought of this, he put on a disdainful expression while he tapped on his imprint.

And to the disappointment if the crowds, he spoke out the words they weren't expecting him to say.

"Hazel, settle the account from the Energy hall."

A voice rang out

"Done! In 25 minutes, the science class would commence, It's advisable to leave at this moment." looking at the dissatisfied expression of the crowds. David left.
