Everyone Else Has a System

[Annabeth's POV]

"Hmmm… is this really written by a normal person? Just how can there be this amount of precision in the teaching methods, such that it's enough to gain the complete trust of everyone in his class? This is… is this how he always does things?" I muttered with a baffled look on my face as I reviewed the plan sent by Zero on how to manage his class.

"What are you looking at?" asked my best friend, Freeda, as she observed me with a curious look before looking at the notes on my laptop.

Currently, I was in my dorm room, where Freeda and I lived together. Previously, Adara too lived with us, but because of how hectic her work was, she started living in the Student Council building all day and night.

All three of us, Adara, Freeda and I, joined the academy about 4 years ago and became fast friends.

'Time passes really fast, doesn't it?' I thought as I sighed before recalling some fond memories of all three of us together before and compared it to where we were today.

"A friend asked me to look after a bunch of students," I said as I turned to Freeda and she turned to the list of students before she asked,"Adara?"

"No, not her… this one is a different person," I said as I looked at Freeda and she made a slight smirk as she spoke,"it's a boy isn't it?"

Not really bothered by her idiotic smirk, I answered with a nod,"yeah. It's a boy."

Hearing my casual answer ignoring her antics, she turned a bit silent before speaking,"looks really serious to me. Need help?"

I turned to her and smiled as she spoke,"If my institutions are not wrong, then he will approach you sooner or later. Perhaps with how much of in a pinch he is, he will approach you very soon."

Hearing my words, her interest piqued as she spoke,"who will? That boy who gave you the task? Who is he?"

There was a sudden smile on her face and I chuckled a little before speaking,"consider him, my boss, for now. Without his permission, I can't really tell you about him at all. Well, now I am about to start the work given by him, so go practice somewhere in the gym. I will join you when I am done."

Freeda looked at me with a slight glare before she shrugged her shoulders as she spoke,"sure. Sure. I will learn about it sooner or later anyway, so I will go. Make sure not to overwork, cya."

I saw Freeda leaving from there slowly and slowly as I smiled before I got back to the files and continued reading about every person in his class. Though, as I read more and more, I became even more flabbergasted…

"FREEDA! COME HERE!" I shouted as I focused on the text that I read just now. Soon enough, Freeda came running as fast as she could with a katana in her hand as her eyes glowed green and she checked around, only to find that the area was safe.

Then her eyes turned brown again, matching her waist long straight hair, which was tied in a pony. The green dress kind of enhanced her beauty, especially when her eyes were green before.

"What is it?" She spoke really annoyed by my sudden shriek but as I pointed at the text on the laptop, she proceeded to read it and soon enough she too made a shocked expression.

[Hey Freeda, if you are reading this, then I have some work for you as well. Help me watch over Class 1B. You can use these files for easy management of that class.

In return… I will help you find the person who stole your mother's amulet? How does that sound?]

"Anna… who is he? That guy… who exactly is he?" Freeda spoke as she looked at me again and I looked at her for a few moments before looking at the next text.

[If both of you are reading this, then that means Freeda must be asking about me; and Annabeth, you must be really confused whether to tell her about me or not given the situation.

So… It's fine. Tell her everything you know about me. I don't think she will be telling anyone about it to anyone else. Perhaps there are a couple people she can tell, but… I think it's fine. They aren't a threat to me]

I looked blankly at the next few lines and so did Freeda, before I sighed a little before I began explaining about the whole situation. Though, the more I told about it to Freeda, the more she began smiling.

In the end, she started laughing crazily like a manic as she looked at me before speaking,"have you gone crazy Anna? Aliens are coming? An apocalypse is arriving? Just how naïve can you be? Just because he saved you and did something like removing the demon curse or whatever, you should not believe in any nonsense he spews."

​ It doesn't seem like she was going to believe it, so I did not know what to do. I looked at the text and wondered if there were any more messages for Freeda and sure enough, there were.

[Freeda perhaps may not believe in the whole situation even then. I mean even most sane people won't believe it as it is so absurd, but I guess this will convince her otherwise.]

Then there was a certain image file with a message below it.

Freeda narrowed her eyes at that message before asking me to open the message, which I did. Perhaps it was a large file, that is why it was taking time to download it, but after a few minutes, it was completely downloaded and I opened it.

-Thud!

Freeda fell on her knees with an expression of disbelief as I found her trying to speak something, but words failed to come out of her mouth. She pointed with her shaking hand at the image, which was of a really complicated yet precise ruin art, and spoke,

"That… that… is… An Ancient Ruin from our Family's Ancestral Tree, of which 75 percent was lost over the ages… Annabeth…. Annabeth! Who is he?!"

All I could do at this point was to look at the screen with Zero's message on it…

[I know how that works as well… but fulfil my wishes before you speak anything to anyone about it.]
