after that day arius began to learn and read a lot and his mother yona helped him with that while lina sometimes came with her and saw him immersed in learning and called him to play or play with him since he was younger than her but sometimes he would go for a little while then return to continue reading and after some time a whole year passed and arius became seven years old and here he understood everything like humans in fact he was considered very intelligent and after some time while he was sitting his father jin came to him and told him that he would enroll him in one of the schools and that he would also be in the same school as his sister lina so arius agreed with the goal of trying something new so after that on a bright morning the sun slipped gently into the window of arius room and the breeze moved quietly through the white curtains and suddenly lina shouted arius wake up quickly we will be late for the first day of school arius slowly opened his eyes then sat on the bed blinking lightly but soon stood up as usual with precision and calm he wore his school uniform that yona had prepared for him the day before a clean white shirt a dark blue jacket elegant black pants and a small new bag on his back downstairs jin was waiting for them at the table with yona arius are you ready to try a new day jin said with a smile while handing him a cup of juice i think so arius replied while taking a sip his eyes focused as usual and his calm never leaving him after breakfast they all went to the car driven by jin himself and lina held arius hand explaining how school would be fun and that she had many friends who wanted to meet him at the wide school gate buses were lined up and students entered with energy and endless chatter the moment they arrived lina was called by a group of girls who ran toward her smiling widely lina waved to them then pointed to arius saying this is my brother arius he is about four years younger than me and he will start school today the girls looked at him in surprise saying he is handsome and his eyes are beautiful and he looks very calm arius looked at them with slight shyness then bowed politely saying nice to meet you they fell silent for a moment then laughed with admiration lina whispered to him polite and smart they will chase you all year arius smiled slightly and said that is not in my plans lina laughed again then showed him his classroom and said goodbye with encouragement arius entered the class quietly the students began observing him and he sat near the window looking outside as the light touched his face thinking new experience new system new environment suddenly the teacher hit the board and called him asking where his mind was he calmly replied that the lesson was boring and already known to him the class fell silent and the teacher challenged him with problems which he solved perfectly in seconds amazing everyone later he met a student named leon during lunch who spoke kindly to him and invited him to join the student council but arius declined saying he was not interested they continued their day and returned home where the family had dinner and spoke warmly that night arius read quietly before sleeping peacefully after a week he got used to school life and during a day off he sat alone in the garden enjoying the calm when suddenly a glowing system window appeared asking him to activate fighter mode which he accepted he distributed his points into strength speed and endurance and noticed immediate physical changes becoming faster lighter and stronger realizing the system was more than guidance it was a path to something greater he began testing his abilities running faster jumping higher and even lifting a heavy rock with effort realizing the difference was real and meaningful he then decided to prepare for what is coming knowing that this system would be his first weapon.
