IRRITATING!

"What about the Challenges number." she spoke up after raising her hand. All this talk about Destiny's had her slightly angry now. This was another reason she liked this class. Destiny didn't take it.

Destiny number? C'mooooooooooon! What had the professor asked did not sound like destiny, did it? Well, at least not to Josh so he just stared around at people who answered it as that destiny thing and his focus was all directed back on Hadley when she said it was incorrect as well.

A predictive indicator. Related to the pinnacles and like the pinnacles. Hmmm. Should not be hard to find out. Taking a breath, the lion boy opened his textbook and simply stared at the next chapter after the Pinnacles one. Yeeeeees, this one was surely related to the pinnacles. Well...it was written there!!!

''The Challenges....'' so he said then quickly added ''...as it says here.'' since it was not from his own knowledge and he did not want to look like he was cheating when he was not doing that. Not at all. Yes again, he was a man of truth.

Ooooh wait...

Had Evelyn just beaten him to it? HAHAHAHAHHAHA. He really LOVED it when she did that...

As the woman moved the class on, Iris looked away from the textbook. At the next question, Iris rolled her eyes when three people answered with what was blatantly the wrong answer.

She raised her hand. "That'd be the Challenges..."

Oh and she had forgotten about Josh and Iris; they too seemed fairly competent in Arithmancy knowledge. As evidenced by the fact that just after Evelyn answered, they both laid their bets on the same number. "Yes, the challenge number is correct! It is this number that presents what is you must face in order to reach the highest peak of your pinnacle cycle. Like the Pinnacles, there are four Challenge numbers as well, which cover the same years as your Pinnacles, but there is a difference in how we calculate them which is what makes this calculation a bit .... challenging. Can anyone tell me what I mean by this? That is to say, how do we calculate them? Generally speaking."
