The Undying Mecha Emperor

"Hey. Watch your language." Jeanette Wen said sharply, more out of reflex than anything. Her mind was still reeling from my words.

"Stealing the American Mecha and leaving the European Mecha intact. That would definitely cause the Americans to accuse the Europeans of sabotage AND make THEIR relationship plunge into hitherto unseen levels of tension!" Bruce Pang marveled at the awesomeness of my idea. "Maybe we should do that instead."

"Definitely not." I objected firmly. "I don't know when I will be able to get near any more Golden Mechas. I need to absorb both of them when I still have the chance."

"You need to look at the bigger picture and make an objective decision based on the benefits that we could reap." Bruce Pang said as he started to lecture me.

But I shook my head stubbornly.

There was no way I would be giving up a Golden Mecha for the sake of politics!

Screw politics. Give me power!

"I have to agree with Justin in this. Absorb them both. But do so at different timings. First absorb the American Mecha and cause the Americans to accuse the Europeans of foul play. And then absorb the European Mecha and make them think that it was retaliation from the Americans. That way, they would be at odds against each other." Jeanette Wen said with a sweet and innocent smile.

I was impressed.

At her idea, yes, but more by how she could maintain such an angelic look on her face while suggesting an idea that could potentially plunge the two superpowers into a world war that would result in the death of billions.

"Good. We'll do that." Bruce Pang said decisively. "I will discuss the timing with you in detail next time. For now, you can go back to class first. I still have things to discuss with your sister in law."

"Alright. Can I get a written free pass for the day though? Sister in law said the teacher of my second class is troublesome." I asked them hopefully.

"Of course not." Both of them said at the same time and then laughed.

What an evil couple.

They knew exactly what was in store for me, and they still sent me to face it so heartlessly!

Five minutes later.

"What an evil couple! What an evil Instructor! What an evil school!" I cried out passionately in my heart.

The afternoon class was Physical Fitness class, led by Instructor Ashley Tang, AKA White Haired Demoness.

Her class was being held in the same field where we had our Introduction to Combat class, and when I reached it, almost five thousand kids were sprawled all around the field, groaning in pain.

Their groans and moans made for an eerie sound. But to the White Haired Demoness, it was probably music.

Those who had participated in the Disciplinary Court session were still running.

"Good afternoon Instructor Ashley! I was called by the Vice Principal-" I tried to use the Vice Principal's name to make my lateness more acceptable.

But alas, the White Haired Demoness would have none of it.

"I was not informed. You're two hours and seven minutes late. You owe me one hundred and twenty seven laps around the field. Plus, I know your body has a Grade A physical enhancement.

So make that jumping squats with both hands behind your head for one hundred and twenty seven laps around the field.

Go."

Now you know why I called them evil!

Even at the blazing fast speed of five minutes around the giant field for each lap, it would take me more than ten hours to finish the one hundred twenty seven laps!

It was insane!

But if it wasn't insane, then she wouldn't be the White Haired Demoness then, would she?

For the next few hours, a bunch of kids ran with all of their might around the giant field while one particularly saddening kid squat jumped his way around that same field.

Thankfully, the White Haired Demoness had failed to judge my physical enhancement level accurately.

Of course I didn't just have a Grade A enhanced body. My body was much more powerful than even the triple or even quadruple S Grade enhancement.

So apart from having to circle the field in an awkward and embarrassing manner, I was relatively okay.

Soon, the class dispersed, leaving only the White Haired Demoness standing there to supervise our punishment.

After around three hours, the first Wang Family kid finished her punishment.

It was Elise Wang.

She collapsed next to the White Haired Demoness and rested there for a quick minute before standing right up.

"Requesting permission to share Justin's punishment!" She panted heavily.

"Granted." The White Haired Demoness said with a tiny smile.

Immediately, she started to jump squat her way around the field.

I truly was touched.

After Elise Wang, a few others did the same thing for me.

Eliana Wang, Victor Long, Hailey Long, Gerald Long, Tes, Olivia Summers, Jack Yang, Roland Hu and even Barrick Rui.

With so many helpers, the punishment that would have taken me over ten hours to finish took merely five!

"Good. You are done for today. Make sure you come to my class on time." Instructor Ashley Wang said with a rare smile on her face as she looked at our completely spent forms but with strangely satisfied smiles on our faces, lying on the ground.

With that, she turned around and left us there under the darkening sky.

Lying there that night, my heart was jubilant.

I knew I had found a bunch of people I would be proud to call friends for the rest of my life.

"What a bitch." Roland Hu croaked.

"The biggest." Victor Long croaked in agreement.

"Language." Elise Wang croaked.

"She's not a bitch. She's a demonic bitch." Hailey Wang croaked loudly.

"Hey. Language." Eliana Wang croaked.

"No. She's not A demonic bitch. She's THE demonic bitch." Jack Yang croaked.

"The Demonic Bitch Queen." Gerald Long croaked.

"Why are you guys croaking like frogs? Let's go back and have dinner! I am hungry!" I jumped up energetically and pointed towards the cafeteria.

All of them looked at me in disbelief.

"That bugger is still so energetic? Why the hell did I even help him then? And whose bloody fault is it that we're croaking like half dead frogs??" Those words were etched very clearly on their faces at that moment.

"Asshole." Elise Wang croaked.

"The biggest asshole." Eliana Wang croaked in agreement.
