"It worked!"

[ C Talent Rank Copied.]

[Do you want to activate it? ]

[Yes / No]

"Yes"

[ C Talent Rank activated.]

Quickly he walked away from the group of students, and headed for a shade.

Seated under a mango tree with its fruits yellow and ripe he looked at his status screen.

"PRIME, show status, with more options".

The say cheese was probably cringing him out which made him not to forget.

"Okay, this is a lot of information; though most of my physical attributes are on par and low".

Mhmm

"Perks ? now that's interesting".

"What's interesting?" A light girly voice asked.

"Huh"

Looking up he could see a pretty petite girl with black hair and pupils staring down at him.

Instinctively he jerked forward, away from the tree. Effortlessly, she swinged herself from the upper branches until she got to a lower one, where she could swing her feet, just above his head.

"Don't do that next time ?" He said.

"Do what?" She asked with a facade of innocence.

Looking at her act, he smirked and said

"Nice one, don't still do it.".

She giggled as she continued to playfully swing her legs while he returned to his previous spot. With his back rested against the trees he broke the silence.

"How long have you been up there ?".

"Before you came here".

"Mhmm".

Turning towards her, his face all serious, he asked:

"What did you hear?"

She looked indifferent as she answered him.

"The ramblings of an idiot".

"Come down for a second please".

She quickly jumped down and he stared at her.

"Who did you just call an idiot".

He was at least one feet taller her, including the fact that she had a small stature.

"umm, did I do something wrong ?" She asked cutely.

Knowing full well that nothing short of manipulation was coming next, he facepalmed and walked away.

"See you later!" She called out to him cheerfully, waving both hands.

'It's safe to say that she doesn't know anything. I have got to speak to it through my mind from now on. Though it feels good to always say it out loud and see the response' he thought to himself while making different faces of emotions associated with his decision.

He walked towards his class, as the first period was about to begin. Walking in through the door, he realized that he was quite on time and not everyone was present yet. Miss Sherly flashed him a cute smile as he walked to his seat.

"Now is there anyone that has learnt how to absorb energy essence yet ? "

No hands were raised as the students looked at one another searching for the golden boy or girl in their midst. She didn't seem disappointed, more like she expected such results. Still smiling, she rephrased her question.

"Is there anyone that has at least gone half way point".

At this moment, half of the class had their hands raised while the others with hands down shifted uncomfortably in their seats. The constant stares by their classmates reminded them of their own incompetence.

"Okay, drop your hands".

"Today, you all would be choosing a class of your choice." She paused briefly, allowing her words to sink in before continuing.

"When I say class, I'm referring to your profession. After you graduate from the academy, it's expected that you either join the government forces, a mercenary group or walk as a freelance beast hunter.".

"Not withstanding the group you join, each member has their specific class, which can make a team either adequate or inadequate. Also, your class can depend on your ability. If for example someone has a light ability, he or she natural class would be a healer. But there have been some exceptions..." Her voice trailed off like she was lost in her thoughts.

The door of the class gently opened as a tall slim man with a low cut and white moustache walked in quietly. Quickly She regained her composure, acknowledged his presence and continued wuth her briefing.

"At the end of this briefing, you all would choose a class that's suitable for you. You would be given two weeks to practice and during this period you could change your class. Do note that at the end of the two weeks, you would need to update your student profile by inputing your chosen class and that would be yours till you graduate from this academy".

"Any questions?"

With no questions from the students, she quickly dismissed them. Immediately, she turned towards the lean man and walked him to her desk as the students left to pick a class and meet their instructors.

BEEP!

Pulling out his gadget, Jake read through the message, which contained the different classes and their primary weapon

[Common]

[Assasin = Dagger]

[Lancers = Lance]

[Archers = Bow and arrow]

[Warrior = Sword and shield]

[Marksman = Gun]

[Healer = Holy Staff]

[Tamers = Flute]

Interesting was the first word that came to his mind. He looked at the list again and wondered which really suited him. He loved the idea of been an assasin but dagger wasn't just his thing. He was no savior, so healer was out , and so was tamers, it looked boring. This left Archers, Lancers and Warrior, cause there was no way he had stand in one place shooting arrows at the enemy; long distance wasn't his forte, especially with his ability that required physical contact.

Finally he settled on the Warrior class and clicked on it. Instantly it was etched on his profile with an option to change. Pulling up a virtual map of the academy ground, he made his way to the Warriors training site.

They kept at it for a minute or two, as more first years trooped in to meet the ongoing battle. "That's second year Farok against James.""My money on James, to win""No, Farok is a true warrior; he got this."The students discussed amongst themselves as both fighters continued to stall each other of the victory. The sound of a whistle brought the fight to an end as both competitors sheathed their sword and dropped their shield and slammed their right hand against their chest. "That's enough for today. Wrap it up second years, it's time for your juniors to learn the...."He paused just for a moment before screaming:"THE WAYS OF A TRUE WARRIOR!""AHHH!"All the second year students, joined him in screaming up to the sky, their voice creating a rhythmic echo across the building.

    Jake looked to his right, and a cute smiling face with black hair and strands of purple winked at him. She looked familiar, but he just couldn't tell from where or when. Just as he was about to ask if he knew her, she spoke."You know I waited for you all through that day, the next and up till now?" "We agreed that after seeing our results, we would text each other back but you never did"."You were with the boys, weren't you ?" "...And you didn't even call since then, its been more than a month if not more !" She threw a barrage of questions at him, with no opportunity to reply, and a lot of emotional faces accompanying each sentence. She settled with a pout as she stared into his eyes, passing a quick message, that she was ready to listen to his words. All this while, they were still running, not as fast as before as they both dropped in speed and matched each other pace."Sorry, do I know you?"

He wanted to demonstrate the importance of size in a physical battle as he encouraged those who were skinny to gather some flesh and also workout. He would often be quoted saying : "Be like me, the ultimate structure of a man!", before laughing like a happy maniac. Today was no different as his students knew a gruelling training session awaited them, as each of them would spar with him in turns.Jake stood in line, his back against the wall. Slowly he flipped a dagger continously while falling into deep thoughts. It's been two weeks since he last saw Daphne, and she had been on his mind.

A hoarse deep voice called out her name as she instinctively turned towards the direction of the voice. If it was before, her brain would have received and processed the information; image, person, she had just seen. But now, all she could mentally recall was a blank image. It was like she was just gazing into a void. Gazing was the wrong word, but it felt like that to her. "You must be Master Patrick ?" Ava politely asked as Patrick stared at her with a bit of surprise. "Master ? Ha..ha..ha..Call me Patrick or Rick, but not Pat for short...you don't want Celine icy stare on you." "Alright Sir Patrick." He stared at the young lad who was roughly the same age as his young niece and smiled softly.

    Ivanka softly moaned as she felt a tinge run down her spine, as Ava fingers had brushed right past her nipple, causing the bud to increase in size, properly spreading out, seeking the finger that stirred it from slumber. "Ava, my uncle would be coming around this morning." Ivanka broke the silence with gasps as her body shuddered, her cheeks crimson red. Ava fingers were slowly working magic on her. Perharps she didn't know the results her actions were getting, and she was just trying to feel the person talking to her. Was she attracted to ladies ? No, she loved penis. But she did know that it was inevitable for one's nipple not to straighten up like a little soldier when touched abruptly, especially early in the morning. Her reminder of her uncle coming was intended to put a pause on Ava unintentional fondling. "Ohh." Ava softly whispered as her hand left Ivanka's breast and caressed her smooth face.

    "...." 'Fuck!' Jake inwardly screamed as he was felt further violated, but he knew it was the truth. His class fell under the common ranks. It was said that classes that could be assigned where common classes. Of course, everyone starts off with a common class, like Ava his lover was a lancer. It was simple. The moment you pick a class, it becomes mentally engraved in you when you begin to train in such class. Now if there's common class, then there's certainly a special class category. Special classes are classes that one could either have by luck which was similar to been born the child of a sitting president. Or one could get it after unlocking his or her class and then such class evolves to become a special class. Everyone had a class but it remains inactive. Some people don't even unlock it till they take their last breathe. The moment you unlock it, it becomes active and your class gives you one special skill.

Immediately his body expanded, each limbs growing as large as a small car. A metallic sheen spreading rapidly acros his body, as it ate away the cold blisters forming on his naked skin. Bang! His body slammed heavily at the bottom of the mountain and was buried by the oncoming avalanche. Puff!

She croaked softly as Daphne hugged her tightly and whispered a "Yes" in her ears. She cried out more, her hands wrapped around a lady she saw as a friend and a sister, her middle finger staining Daphne clothe with her blood. "Is Jake with you ?" "And what about his sister ?" She asked as she pulled away slowly, staring just up ahead of Daphne face. "Everything will be alright." Daphne whispered as she slowly brushed Ava's cheeks. Ava instinctivelyreached for Daphne hands and clasped it in hers, "Daphne please answer me, is Sophie alive?". She asked again and almost paused instantly as something occurred to her. If she was in this position with no eyes, it simply meant a worse fate or something similar must have befallen Sophie.

The sound of iron striking iron disrupted the silence as the man with rippled muscles and a sheen of sweat dripping from his back continued his rhythmic striking. Bang! Bang!......Bang! He pauses for a moment as he stared at the sword before his hands, as he quietly thought : 'it wasn't flattened enough.' Bang! Bang! Suddenly he pushed it into a metallic bucket filled with water before moving unto the furnace chamber and began to fill it with more coal. "Ahh, there he's, the father of the lunatics."

    Running off towards Patrick, she knelt beside him. His eyes still bloodshot, his Berserk class still active. Placing her hands on her Ava chest, she couldn't feel any heart beat. She tried sending some energy essence to her heart and core to stimutae both at the same time. After doing it for the fifth time, and it didn't work, she stared at the girl in pity before shaking her head. "She's dead." Few seconds later, she looked up to see Patrick still staring at Ava, she wondered if he was seeing something she couldn't see. Suddenly he stabbed two fingers into her ribcage, just below her heart as Celine gasped out loud. "Show some respect to the dead. " He didn't respond as he quickly flicked his fingers, his index strumming Ava heart violently, that her disfigured mouth puked out some more blood. "Patrick!" Celine called out loudly, ger eyes showing the shock and slight fury as to why he was doing this to a corpse. It was one thing that a young one's life had been taken

"You plan on using your class ?" She asked warily as the temperature of the hall crossed into the negative mark, below zero. "Yes." Patrick slowly rubbed his hands together, having laid Queen carefully behind them, the friction of his palms caused his body to heat up in a strange way. "Ready." The moment He got the go ahead, his voice a whisper in the cold chilling air. "Berserk!" "Ahh!" His screams echoed across the hallway as even those below felt it, a chilling fear running through the spine of the five A(S) Rankers in a face off with Rabin. "That brute, goes activating his class again." Danitello muttered as he stared at Rabin who was now missing an arm and leg, while finding it difficult to face off against the five supposed A Rankers at once. His sense of balance completely ruined
