Chapter 3: The introduction

(lol, so long no one continue the story, so here's the long awaited part 3!!)

[Chapter 3: The Introduction]

After what seemed like ages to Quinten (somehow this name just reminds me of harry potter...heh), his keen senses finally picked up the soft tapping of shoes along the corridor outside. Indubitably, the footsteps were heading towards one destination, the opened door of the classroom.

Within moments, a tall stout figure appeared in the doorway, pausing momentarily to quickly scan the classroom. His sharp bright eyes immediately picked out the figure of Quinten and gave him him a mild smile.

What struck Quinten immediately is the the man's face. Though his face reflected a look of a man in his 30s, his head was a sea of white. As his smile widened, Quinten noticed multiple wrinkles forming, though minute, clearly indicated that this man has been through too much for his own good.

(oops, seems like i've deviated a lot from what i wanted to say lol, just check the title, anyway...)

In a fluid motion, the man's mouth continued into a shape of a cheerful announcement "Hi class, we've a newcomer today, shall we invite him to introduce himself?"

Even before the man finished his sentence, Quinten was already right next to him looking at the class with a smug look on his face. If there's one thing that Quinten wasn't good at, it's hiding his arrogance.

"Good morning everyone, i'm Quinten, many of you would probably heard of me, since i was top of the Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics Olympiad in the last term. My specialties are well... everything. For those foreign scholars, do not hesitate to speak to me in your native language, because I'm highly proficient in Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, Italian, German, Korean and even Martian. Not that i'm boasting, but i'm so good that i've been expelled four times last year for being too much of a genius! Which is the reason why i've come so far away from my home to this place to further my education. Hope that you people would prove to be more of a challenge to my intellectual threshold."

Silence. Quinten bathed in it as he bowed, a gesture of showing off his courtesy rather than being courteous. It always prided him to elicit a non-response from his audience to his jawdropping achievements. If arrogance could be measured by the Richter scale, the earth would be quaking off its axis from his speech.

-Yawn-

The act was soft, yet it echoed through every corner of Quinten's head...
