After Stealing Hero's Mother, I Reincarnated in the Fantasy World!

Chapter 26: First encounter with the hero



Walking through the academy grounds, Rain noticed that probably because of the upcoming tests, the place was very noisy and students could be seen chatting everywhere.

These tests were a standard procedure at the beginning of each academic year, conducted to assess the progress of students and reassign them to classes according to their levels.

The classes were divided into Elite, A, B, C, D, and E, which was the weakest of all.

Thanks to the memories of the past owner of this body, Rain knew that he was in the Elite class and had already completed his first year and now his second year was about to begin.

The Elite class was at the top of the academy and everyone dreamed of getting into it, so even after enrolling in it, one had to make every effort to stay in it. He was sure that if he hadn't been moved into this body, the former Rain would have failed the tests and slipped into a weaker class because of his neglect of training.

Following the few memories he had of the academy, Rain eventually made his way to the right place.

He pushed open the door and walked relaxedly into the classroom. The small room was packed with students, and since class hadn't started yet, almost everyone was talking among themselves, discussing something.

Most of them showed no reaction to his appearance, as they didn't recognize Rain, but those who did were at least surprised. The biggest reaction came from the beautiful female teacher, whose eyes widened and froze in disbelief as she stared at the student who had entered.

Looking around the classroom, Rain made his way to the seat that was supposed to be his. He came to the conclusion that the only familiar faces here were Eliana and Liana, his twin sisters.

As he sat there, thanks to his enhanced senses, Rain could clearly hear almost all the whispers in the classroom. Half of them related to the upcoming test, and the other half, most likely belonging to the boys, to a discussion of some strong 'advantages' of their strict teacher.

"Since this is the first time in a long time that our class is fully assembled, I'll begin."

Standing up from her seat, the teacher stepped in front of the students, instantly causing the entire class to fall silent. Even the occasional whispering disappeared as if it had never happened.

"As you already know, today is the day for the major tests that will determine your ranking for next year. So I strongly advise all of you to give your best if you still want to stay in this class and enjoy its privileges."

Her stern voice perfectly matched her professional style: black tight skirt and white blouse. Unfortunately or fortunately, these clothes did not help to hide all her appetizing virtues and only gave her an unusual charm.

"Until the tests begin, classes will follow the normal format."

After her announcement, the teacher moved on to the class itself, which was devoted to the theory of magic. Due to the start of the new year, she began by repeating the basics.

Since Rain already knew that the memories he received were not very reliable, he decided to listen carefully to this hotty teacher.

After an hour, her explanation ended and break time began. As everyone began to socialize again, Rain thought about one of the reasons for coming here.

'Logically, the hero should also be in this Elite class.'

As Rain was about to do some searching, a familiar name caught his eye.

"Eliana, long time no see."

Rain turned and saw a young blond man a few rows away from him, approaching two girls who looked like two peas in a pod. The one he was addressing didn't even pay attention, as if he wasn't even there.

"That's my sister, you idiot."

Eliana's irritated voice rang out.

"Haha, I'm not used to telling you two apart yet."

The two sisters were usually alike and hard to tell apart, but as soon as they said something, all their resemblance disappeared abruptly, preventing those around them from being completely confused about their identities.

Eliana continued to stare at him questioningly, as if wondering why he had come.

"I was recently tasked with taking down a group of orcs in the woods near the academy and I thought we could work together..."

"I'm not interested in weaklings."

Eliana's indifferent voice rang out as she returned to what she had been doing before the blond came in.

His fists clenched hard at those words, but he managed to keep the same friendly expression on his face.

"Eliana, the last time I helped you, you promised me you'd do something for me too."

Eliana frowned slightly at that statement.

"That doesn't invalidate my past words."

"But you might need my help in the future too, right?"

As Rain watched this situation, he felt an unpleasant sensation all over his body. It didn't take him long to realize what was causing it.

'Nari, is that guy a hero?'

[You're right, host.]

Rain felt a great deal of irritation.

It was the first time he'd seen the hero, but he'd already tried to hit on his sisters?

Eliana may have been a bitch, but she was HIS bitch.

Rain glared at the blond with killing intent.

It looked rather weak which made Rain wonder how he even made it to the Elite Class. But after the system confirmed that he was a hero, Rain didn't plan to underestimate him, especially since he had the support of the World's Will.

'Eliana definitely said that the guy I was to fight was named Grey. Does that mean I have another hero in front of me?'

Rain took another look at the guy still trying to talk Eliana down.

'Judging from his weak status, he should only be at the beginning of his journey, so it will be most beneficial to use the Ticket of Opportunity on him specifically and get the most benefits.'

Rain mentally activated the ticket and chose as a target a blond man not far from him.

Immediately after that, the world stopped for Rain and a large amount of new information began to pour into his mind, consisting of various scenes and knowledge related to the hero. When it was over and Rain regained consciousness, he found that only a moment had passed outside and the hero still hadn't stopped his annoying attempts to hit on his sisters.

After using it, Rain realized that the women who played a role in the hero's fate are also considered lucky opportunities, because he sees them through this ticket.

This only made Rain frown harder.

'Why didn't I see his mother?'
