CHAPTER 22

They have arrived at the Spivilion Institution, Markvert reported everything that happened below. 
Government officials are taking action to preserve the capital once again. 
Sage, on the other hand, heard about the news. She stared at Keyla from afar, she can't help but noticed that Keyla wasn't feeling herself since they arrived.
She wanted to talk to her but she was frightened. She was mean to Keyla, she can't just befriend her after all this time.
She sigh and went to her classroom, she enrolled herself in an academic class. Today, they're learning about the ancient language of Spipoiary.
"I assumed that most of you are known the ancient language by now. Therefore, I'll be handing you some sheets as your written work for this class. I want you to translate the ancient language into modern language, I'll be giving twenty points into your account if you passed, however, if you fail, I'm afraid you'll receive five points." The professor stated, "And, one more thing, you only have thirty minutes to finish the test,"
As soon as the professor handed the sheets to her students, she set the timer. 
Sage was confident that she'll pass this test. She's up all night just to familiarize the ancient language in Spipoiary.
However, the test isn't exactly what she expected.
Arvëuß he houūh chãbnel ózhechvàl.
"What on earth does this language mean!?" She yelled
The professor cleared her throat to get Sage's attention
"If you studied chapter 9 of the book, then you'll know." The professor stated, "Twenty-five minutes left,"
Sage rolled her eyes in frustration. The language is too advanced for beginners to take. They've only learned the basics. 
"Psst, Tuffin..."
Sage turned her head to the girl beside her. The girl handed a small piece of paper to her
Sage opened the letter and she was dumbfounded that the girl gave her the answer to the test.
She wanted to get that twenty points, however, she tossed the paper back to that girl
"Sorry, I don't do cheating." Sage remarks
"B-But, you need this, you want the twenty points, right?" the girl uttered
Sage gazed at her, "Look, Missy, I don't know what you're up to but I don't want your help to get that bloody points. Keep your cheating habit to yourself."
"M-My name isn't Missy—"
"Did I ask?"
The girl looked away. Thirty minutes passed, and the professor walked around to collect the papers, she was surprised to see that Sage didn't answer any of the questions
"Miss Tuffin, see me after class." 
Sage rolled her eyes, "Whatever,"
All of the students began to depart the room, they stared at Sage while they murmured and mocked her for not knowing any advanced ancient language
Sage crossed her arms as she wait for the professor to finish arranging the papers
"So, Sage Tuffin, may I know the reason why you didn't bother to write any answers on the test paper?" The professor asks
Sage didn't answer, she simply gazes directly at the professor
"Perhaps, you did something unnecessary rather than study for this test?"
"I beg your pardon, miss, I did study on this test."
"How dare you call me miss? I heard you're very disrespectful, but I did not anticipate you'd be this disrespectful. I am a professor and I want you to address me as such!"
"A professor who gave her students an advance ancient language test without even teaching it?"
"Even if I don't teach it, you should know how to read it. You're from Spipoiary for Klasiphina's sake! It is hardly my fault that you can not understand something simple as this."
"Isn't the purpose of this class is to help those students who cannot understand the ancient language?" Sage added, "Just because I am from Spipoiary, that does not mean I have to comprehend the olden language that the older generations learned before us."
"You came to Spivilion Institution to learn, isn't it right?"
"No. I did not come here to learn, I came here for revenge." Sage said sarcastically, however, it seems like the professor took it personally 
"Revenge?" The professor hysterically laughed, "That word is so last season, you'll never learn the ancient language. Next week, I'll be giving out another test. If you fail it again, I have no other choice but to drop you from this class,"
"We'll see about that." Sage stood up and walked out of the room.
The professor sneered, "Arguing with her is a waste of time. Now, I have no choice but to give her five points to her credentials points. She didn't even bother to put any effort at all! What shall I do to this child? Should I make the test more difficult next week?"
Sage heard everything that the professor said as she was hiding behind the wall. 
She was frustrated as she stormed upon the hallway
"T-Tuffin..."
"What!?" Sage yelled
The girl from the Ancient Language class earlier seems terrified after Sage yelled at her
"Oh, it's you," Sage added, "Look, I'm not in the mood so if you have something to say, say it right away and get lost."
"I-I'm s-sorry..... I just w-wanna ask you i-if you want to s-study together..." The girl uttered
"I don't even know you."
"I'm P-Paisley Hunter..."
Sage gazed at her without responding 
"I-If it's not m-much trouble, c-can we study together?"
"When?" Sage asks
Paisley's face brightens, "Tomorrow, w-well, if you aren't busy..."
"Hmm, I'll think about it." 
"Oh, sure...."
"Now, get lost,"
"O-Okay...." Paisley immediately run away 
She sighed in frustration because she just wasted twenty points on that test.
"Oh, you're here, Sage,"
Trixi appears in front of her, Sage rolled her eyes
"You're not in the mode are you?" Trixi asks
"Yeah," Sage simply respond 
"Wow, this must be the first time you answered without any sarcasm in your intonation. I must deliver this amazing development to Keyla and Vaughn, I'm sure they'll be surprised as well!"
"Can you cut it out? I do not wish to involve with any of them. As a matter of fact, I do not even see you all as friends."
"I know that silly, however, you simply cannot prevent others if they want to be friends with you. You look miserable without anyone around you, Sage,"
"I simply don't give any d*mn about it, Lady Dankworth. I am miserable ever since I was born, nothing's new. Now, if you may excuse me, this miserable and disrespectful lady has something else to do." Sage stated as she walks away
I will never be friends with any of them. I cannot bear it if something happens if they choose to be with someone like me.
