Inside the classroom, it got a little bit noisy once more, but it did not get out of control. People started making pairs and doing what Darius showed them earlier.

There were a few female students that did not want to hold hands with males, but under the constant urging of the others they finally gave in. It was weird; there seemed to be an even number of male to female ratio in the classroom.

Nick suspected that Darius either requested for it to become like this or he just had good luck.

Because Nick could see the type of essence people had, it was easy for him to spot potential partners for other people. He did not tell them if they were a match or not as he figured they would learn as time progressed.

The flow in Matthew's body was black in color, not one person in the room would be a match for him. Freya had a couple of potential partners who she could pair up with from Nicks view as the color of her flow was grey. Nick himself had a grey colored flow, but he thought these two were better suited for each other.

Given the nature of Freya, he doubted she would pair up with some random person.

"I think you two would make a nice pair, for this training of course."

Nick told them his opinion. Since grey and black were close in color, the relationship between them shouldn't be too bad. It wouldn't be perfect, but it was better than what the other students were doing. Which was picking either one of the people close to them to partner up with or pick a friend.

They didn't care about the relationship between the two flows which would be key to increasing the amount of essence you would absorb.

"I don't see anything wrong with that."

"I guess I can work with this guy."

The two of them agreed, and they did not seem to have any complaints.

A few of the females that were working there way over towards Matthew instantly stopped and turned around when they saw the scene before them.

Their small chance at romance was now crushed, they glared at Freya before they left. She would genuinely be hated in the future by these female classmates.

Given his various talents and ability, he wondered if there would be anyone that could be his partner who hasn't already been picked up.

His hazel eyes turned icy blue as he scanned the room quickly. He was at least expecting to find one person who hasn't been grouped up yet with the same color as his or some very similar. Nick was a bit special as his flow was not exactly the standard grey. It was a lighter shade of grey.

Nick was surprised there was one person in this room that had almost the same flow color as him. His eyes turned back to their natural color as he got up from his seat and walked over.

She had a two handsome looking males asking her to partner up with them, but she declined them both. Although rejected neither of them gave up. They knew that the more time passed, the more people would group up, leaving others with a limited amount of partners. Eventually, she would have to accept one of their offers.

Nick walked up to her desk which was five rows behind his own seat. He gazed into her green eyes that seemed to hold a complicated feeling.

"Do you want to partner up with me?"

She pushed back a piece of her long light brown hair as she looked at Nick. She examined him for a moment before she spoke.

"Sure."

"Wait a moment. You reject me, but you chose this buster? Seriously!?"

One of the young males shouted in anger. His handsome face turned ugly in a moment. He's tasted rejection once before, but given enough time those girls always came around. This time it was different.

He had set his eyes upon this beautiful young woman the moment he walked into the classroom. He even picked a seat next to her so they would be able to have more interactions. His plans that he had to capture her heart were slowly scattering in the wind.

He ground his teeth together; he was a support user just like everyone else in this classroom. His prospects for the future wouldn't be grand, but who was to say that any support users prospects were? They were support users! Highly versatile? In what manner? The only ones in the support division who would stand a chance in a fight were the ones with abilities that actually helped them in a fight. Development of EXO abilities? He didn't believe in it, you were born with an ability and that there determined if you would have a status in the world. If you were one of the lucky ones, who were born with an ability that allowed you to stand your ground in a fight, then nice going. But the ones who didn't have the luck as you were looked down upon in the EXO society. The chances of them having a partner in life who was an Offensive or Defensive user was slim. Their best bet was to marry another support user.

Yet here she was being stuck up about who she wanted to partner up with. So what if she was pretty? She probably had a worse EXO ability than his own!

"Yes seriously. It would not be right for the two of us to partner up as the natural flow in our body does not match up. Neither one of us will benefit much thus it would limit our growth. It is not that I do not wish to partner up with you, it is just much better to do so with someone who suits me much better."

She did not get upset at his reaction. Instead, she talked to him in a calm tone. With these type of guys, she felt it was best to give them an explanation as to why they were being rejected than just flat out say no.

"Whatever!"

The youth growled in anger as he stormed off.

The other youth didn't persist any longer and also left. Although he did have the same idea as the other male before him, he wouldn't act in the same way.

"I did not mean for you to see such a scene."

She told Nick as she gave him a small smile.

"Don't mind it. It is only natural for a guy to take a fancy to someone as beautiful as you."

"I'm not that pretty; I believe that your friend over there is much more charming than I am."

She pointed her finger in the direction where Freya and Matthew were.

"She does have her points. I'm Nick, you are?"

"Alyson West."

"Oh? You are apart of the West family; I did not think a member of their family would attend our school. With your families EXO abilities I'm sure that you could go to any school, what made you choose Demeter Academy?"

"I don't think my family is that great for many people to know about us. We aren't like the "Wells' or the 'Robinsons' that are more well known. I did not choose this academy; my father decided it for me."

"I wonder why he chose this place? Although they are ranked lower than us, the medical department at Apollo academy is way more advanced than here.

Anyways, let's begin."

Grabbing ahold of each other's hands, they closed their eyes and concentrated.

Nick focused on the core of her essence. It was like the heart of any EXO user, constantly pumping the essence throughout their body. If the core was damaged in any way, it could be the end for any EXO user. They would go from extraordinary to ordinary in a flash.

He sensed the way it flowed through her channels like a river. The steady pace at which it was pushed out was like a rhythm.

His own flow started to match hers to the point that the rate at which they were pushed out was the same. It was like her essence was an extension of his own.

Being as gentle as possible he pulled her essence towards him.

Alyson let out a small moan as her body started to heat up. The inside of her body felt like it was moving along a steady pathway. Everything was so smooth, and it gave her a pleasurable feeling.

The sensation she was feeling in her stomach became stronger.

When they were focusing on training, their sense of time became lost. They were in their own realm.

Time in the classroom ticked by, seconds turned into minutes as minutes turned into hours.

Darius only wanted them to try this technique out, but he never imagined that there would be three couples that would have such a deep concentration.

Except for these six everyone else in the classroom finished hours ago. He couldn't continue his lesson until all the groups were finished, so he continued to wait.

"Mr. Hellbane, why haven't they finished yet?"

One of the female students asked in curiosity. The longest time one of them lasted was at most twenty minutes, yet here are these six going on for hours!

"They have reached a point where their two bodies are acting as one. They are feeding off of each other and growing at a steady pace. It is called synergy. This is a crucial point that even I wouldn't wake them. When they finish, the essence in their body will at least increase by fifteen percent. Ha, I'm so lucky to have such talented students!"

When he realized what he said, he looked over the other students. They were talking lightly or on their phones.

"Stop, stop, stop! Go back to training!"

He urged them to continue if they didn't then they would be outdone by these six students. He couldn't let that happen!
