Chapter 71: Almost Dead
The next day, Cyrus looked at Kane who had his eyes closed while seated in a lotus position. Was he circulating mana at that time? He sat across the young man and leaned his back on the rock. Since it was only the two of them, he should just let him do his own preparations. He was sure that his advancement to the specialized training would be earlier than next week since Gavin looked excited after Mila left. “Just a little more…” Kane sounded frustrated as soon as he opened his eyes. He just sat there looking at his hands as if he was looking for an answer and he would find it there in his palms. Cyrus just watched Kane stare at his hands with furrowed brows. For him, Kane looked like he was struggling to break through. Though he would like to help him as a trainer, he knew that at that moment Kane was the only one who could find the solution to his problem. After a while, the other rookies started to arrive. He saw Arisa sitting beside Kane but kept

Chapter 72: Harsh Truth
The other rookies were shouting asking them what they did to pass through the island-like rocks. Kane sighed when he noticed that Ari was still staring blankly at him.“Hey, are you okay? Did you lose your mind because you almost died?” Kane asked her once more as he helped her stand up properly and regain her balance.“Thank you.” Ari bowed her head. She thought she would die but Kane saved her. If it was not for him, she would have really been dead.“You have nothing to be grateful for. I just did my job.” Kane made sure to use his usual indifferent tone. He let go of Ari and the latter looked in the direction where the other rookies were stranded.Seriously, Kane thought that those older rookies should start thinking on their own. Not all the time there would be people like them who would tell them what to do inside the dungeon.“Don’t tell them anything.”Kane’s eyes grew wide when he heard the voice from behind him. He looked at the pave stones and it was still taking its time pe

Chapter 73: The Mentor
They finally got out of the sweltering dungeon with everyone in tow. Those who almost fell were assisted by Mila’s water magic. The other rookies felt ashamed that they only focused on the situation and forgot that Mila was a water mage.“You two… come with us to the Hunters Guild,” Gavin ordered Kane and Arisa.He made sure that only the two would hear his instruction so that no one would feel bad about setting those two apart from the others. When the other rookies left, Kane and Arisa rode with Gavin and Viktor while Mila went with Cyrus.Inside Gavin’s car, Kane kept silent while watching the road, Arisa was busy reading dungeon articles while Viktor was talking with Gavin about the changes in the Hunter’s Guild. Though the atmosphere in front was nice, Kane could feel the awkwardness between him and the young lady.He did not know what he did wrong but he noticed that Arisa seemed like she did not like to get involved with him. Since he did not care about that, he was not really

Chapter 74: Specialized Training
Kane went back to the inn with his mind still wandering back to the Hunter’s Guild. Why did he end up getting a promotion when he was still stuck? He wanted to try and gain a little more experience since he thought that fighting monsters would help him find out the reason why he felt that something was missing every time he used his abilities.How would he fight even more dangerous monsters with the state that he was in at the moment? It was something that he would not want to risk but if those trainers think that it would be fine for them, then he might as well give it a try.He stared at his hand. The real reason why he was bothered was because of the throbbing excitement that he felt when he heard that specialized training was held in more dangerous dungeons, equivalent to the hunter’s level. They were informed that they might take on Level C or B dungeons for the training and since then, he could not shake the excitement in his chest.He was not supposed to be excited since he wou

Chapter 75: Back to Basics
They continued to go through the grasses and passed countless trees but the two still did not know where their destination was. Arisa looked anxious because she was being kept in the dark but what made her more irritable was that her supposed to be comrade seemed to not mind anything at all.How could he be so calm when they were roaming around a mountain with a trainer whom they just met yesterday? She knew that the wild animals in that mountain were nothing compared to the monsters in the dungeon, but she could still not understand why they have to climb a mountain if they were all aware that they could not possibly hunt there?“Mr. Roa?” Since she could not keep it in, Arisa took the courage to ask the old man. “May I know what are we doing here in the mountain?”“We’re going to a place where you can train freely.”Arisa sighed. She could not understand him. How could they train freely in a mountain? Was there even a place where they could train freely?She looked at Kane who seeme

Chapter 76: Back to Basics II
Kane sighed. He already finished three repetitions of the exercises but he could still not finish a full circulation while exercising. The more he restarted, the more he felt that it was impossible for him. It was frustrating. He stood up as he finished his third 5-minute plank. He was panting and his body was drenched in sweat.He was just exercising but his constant practice of mana circulation was starting to take a toll in his body. After he stabilized his breathing, Kane went back to the exercise. He started with the squats again, but he took a break from trying to circulate mana. If he tried for the next two repetitions, he was sure to collapse even before he could ask what his next task would be.Compared to the first three repetitions, Kane finished the last two repetitions with less strain on his body. He stretched his body first before he went towards the old man who had been keeping an eye on both of them.“You just finished your first task? Do you have a weak body?”Kane s

Chapter 77: Monstrous Pool
It had been five minutes since the dagger started sucking his mana and the whole land around him was turned brown and it also started looking healthy. However, his mana pool was not even burned to half. He did not realize it before, but just how big was his mana pool?“Don’t deplete your mana too much,” Viktor warned him but he just looked at him with furrowed eyes.“I haven’t even released half of the mana that was stored in my body,” he mumbled.“What did you say?” Gavin had a surprised look on his face. “Can you adjust the strength of your mana release?”“I’ll try…” Though he was not sure why Kane did what Gavin asked him to do. He released his mana faster and he saw how small sprouts of grasses started to grow around the dagger.The grasses’ growth was too fast that it covered a lot of land in no time. By the time the barren land was covered in grass, Kane’s mana reserved was finally cut in half. He continued to pour mana into the dagger though he was already feeling better.“How

Chapter 78: Act of Gratefulness
“Thank you for this.” He looked at the young boy and smiled. He put the glass of water on the side before he closed his eyes and shifted to sit in a lotus position.“Why don’t you take a rest first?” Gavin suggested when he realized that Kane was getting ready to circulate his mana.“The sooner we finish this, the better. I’ll just consider this as part of my training,” Kane answered without opening his eyes. He relaxed his body and soon enough he was drowned in the feeling of his mana circulating through his bloodstream.Gavin watched Kane and he could feel his mana being circulated around his body. In order to fill his mana pool again, He would need to circulate his mana and bring that circulated mana to his core. If he had a huge mana pool, just how long would he need to circulate his mana to fill it?“Is he all right?” A little girl asked Gavin as she peeked at the young man who helped in bringing back the nutrients in their barren land.“Yes. He is. He just needs to regain his st

Chapter 79: Never the Same
Erin sighed when the professor dismissed them. She went out of the class, took out her phone, and waited for Xander outside his classroom while browsing the web.The Rising Star Joined the Rankers!She grimaced when she saw Gustav’s smiling face in that article. After Kane died, Gustav never showed his face to them again. Not that she minded, she was actually relieved that he was no longer chasing after them. She was aware that he was only interested in Kane, but how come he never visited during Kane’s funeral?“Bastard…”“Who?” Xander put a piece of chocolate in his mouth. “Are you calling me a bastard now?”“Why would I call you that?” Erin rolled her eyes. “Did you do well on the test?”“Of course! Have you forgotten that I am a genius?” Xander laughed. “Shall we go and celebrate? Let’s call your brothers too!”“My brothers? Even Ed?” Erin asked. Why would he invite those two?“You know, being alone with you is a little lonely. I mean I know that we had been together since we were

Chapter 80: The Chosen Heir
“Where are you going?” Keith, the first son of the Vasquez family, asked his younger brother who was pulling a piece of luggage towards the door.“Somewhere far from here and from the north.” Keiffer, the second son of the Vasquez family, replied with an annoyed face. “You’re just chosen because you were born first…”Keith chuckled. “We’re going to have a party later and yet you’re going somewhere far?”Keiffer felt the hairs on his nape stand because of his brother’s chilling voice. “So what? Go and celebrate. Just don’t expect me to celebrate with you!”He stormed out of the house and slammed the door closed. He immediately put his luggage inside his car and set off without even looking back. He was just going to cool his head off in the southwest. Why did he have to go out and ruin his mood?Keith just watched his brother’s car leave the mansion. Later that night, he would be formally announced as the heir of the Vasquez Family. He was lucky that he managed to strike while the othe
