"This is it, BT," Liam muttered, his voice tight with anticipation. Anticipation that this st mission would be the end, and maybe he would be able to finish it in one go. Well, he could always dream as he remembered that the st mission with BT was filled with stant fights against Titans and also a sacrifice at the end.

  The mission was clear—reach the Fold on aroy it before the IMC could harness its devastating power. The stakes couldn't have been higher. The Fold on was akin to the Death Star, which used gravity as a on and could destroy ps. The mission this time was taking care of the Fold on, or in other words, being the Anakin Skywalker aroying it.

  And thus, Liam started his journey. But of course, how could it be that easy? He soon had to face a number of soldiers from the IMd also other Titans. Thankfully, this new version of BT was much better than the previous versioook his mae and just poured all the bullets into one of the Titans until it was time to reload. Thankfully, with the downfall of every Titan, there would be a power cell that would recharge the shield and repair the damages done.

  Though the game was still extremely difficult, Liam was faring quite well in this chaos-filled battlefield.

  "BT, how is the new hull? Better?" Liam couldn't help but ask while firing his huge-ass mae gun.

  [Jack (Cooper), I have never felt better.]

  "The's raise hell, BT."

  [Affirmative, Jack.]

  The battle raged on. Liam had to face multiple soldiers, mouurrets, and many Titans, but finally, he reached the trol system of the Fold on, only to face Slone and Blisk, the st two enemies and their Legion-css Titans. This was going to be a tough fight, as Slone's on was a huge ser gun that could vaporize anything.

  It's just that Liam didn't expect "anything" to actually mean his own Titan too. As soon as Liam faced Slone, she just one-shot Liam into oblivion. He didn't eveime to dodge or maneuver. He didn't even know he had died until he saw himself sitting on his bed.

  "Fuck!" Liam couldn't help but curse. "How am I going to dodge that big-ass on with BT? That is impossible."

  Liam was angry, and thankfully, the system would him of any kind of tiredness or dizziness from the stant fight. He id ihinking of how he was going to deal with Slone and then Blisk until the end. He soon fell asleep, as Liam wasn't known to take ao the grave and just dwell on it.

  There was always time.

  Midtown High School, Forest Hills

  Liam attended probably the most famous high school in id movies—the school where Peter Parker went. But at the moment, this school was just a school feniuses. Well, the term "genius" was a stretch. It ublic school to begin with. But Liam liked the school.

  After a grueling session every night, ing to school was a way of unwinding himself and indulging iy things like talking with friends and having fun. In his previous life, he didn't like his own school life as he was heavily bullied because of his shy nature.

  Though ter he did bee successful, the scar still remained with him. Thus, he wao make up for the regret. But today wasn't a nice day for Liam, because as soon as he ehe school corridor, the css teacher was waiting for him.

  "Liam Woodworth. Follow me to the Principal's office."

  Liam's eyebrows raised at the tone of disappoi ieacher, but he didn't say anything iurn. He just followed him and soon found himself in the Principal's office. The Principal sat on his chair while two men and one woman sat oher side of the desk, with three students about the same age as Liam standing behind them with their heads down.

  If fire could be spewed from eyes, thehree individuals sitting across from the Principal would have sered Liam into oblivion by now. Thankfully, Superman wasn't a thing here. At least not yet.

  Liam knew what it was for.

  "Mr. Liam Woodworth, do you have any idea the whirlwind you have caused in the school?" the Principal spoke up first, in anger.

  "Uh, I don't see any debris or anythiroyed with my name on it in the school premises yet. If you want, I check the whole pound." Liam answered.

  "You think this is a joke? You hurt my son and his friends, and now you are joking! If it wasn't for the Principal here, I would have sued you by now." The woman, who looked ahaher two men, didn't even allow the Principal to answer.

  "Mrs. Galghar, I beseech you to restrain yer," the Principal said to the woman. Liam could only think of ohing here: Who uses the word 'beseeowadays in everyday versation? This Principal is definitely weird. No wonder he got repced, as Liam remembered who took the position of Principal wheer was here.

  "Mr. Woodworth, I expee kind of answer for your behavior and, umm... roughing them up? There is video evidend multiple witnesses, so I hope you won't lie." The Principal knew he would have to step in fast, or else these three guardians would make more of a se than it already was.

  "They tried to bully my friend, so I went and taught them a lesson," Liam replied, side-eyeing the three fellow colleagues that he had a "talk" with a few days ago.

  "You see? Your own student has admitted it. Now I want him expelled. My poor boy has been traumatized by this i and refuses to go out of his room. I won't leave until my demands are met," Mrs. Galghar jumped on the admission and almost screamed at the Principal.
