2024-10-29 19:42:56"Thank you for using our services. Here is my card, you can contact us-"
Lukas slammed the door before the cab driver could finish advertising his services. Services my foot! Lukas swore never to use their services again.
The reason was fairly simple. During the journey, he fell asleep and dozed off for about 2 hours.
When he woke up he found out that he had barely moved from the spot he dozed off! As if that wasn't enough, the whole ride was very bumpy and uncomfortable.
Lukas regretted not using the train. The train t-fare was 200 copper notes, so he didn't consider boarding one.
Needless to say he now understood the ancient proverb 'Penny wise, pound foolish'. Exorbitant prices and bumpy rides, he wasn't using their services ever again!
Lukas walked towards the entrance, following the signboards to navigate himself. Soon enough he found himself at the entrance. He didn't move forward again, his mouth gaping wide. The first thing that came to his mind was huge.
There was a very huge gate which served as the entrance. It was very tall, well over 30 meters. He couldn't see anything inside even if he tried to. The gate had a glassy look to it. The words Aegis Imperial High School were written on it in cursive. The gate looked like it would break from the lightest of hits.
Although if that were so, then the school wouldn't be the number one in the empire.
The gate, contrary to its look, was made from the skin of a peculiar catastrophe class beast. It was very strong and could withstand 3 attacks from a God at the peak of his strength.
Surrounding the gates were walls which were equally as tall as the gate.
The walls were very wide that the end couldn't be seen, while the top of the walls were wide enough for 4 cars to pass by side by side.
The walls were very sturdy, as they were made from the skin of rock tyrant titan, a catastrophe class beast famed for its defense. The walls could withstand up to 10 attacks from peak demi-gods beings and was almost immune to attacks below the demi-god level.
Behind the walls was another layer of security, which was the teaching staff. The teachers were incredibly powerful, with the Dean himself being a peak demi-god, halfway into the God level.
This was another reason why Aegis Imperial High School was the number one school in the empire. It was famous for its security.
Parents, most especially nobles could feel at ease knowing that the chances of their children being hurt by monsters were close to none.
Of course, that equally made it extremely hard to enter. Every year over 1.5 million people applied and only 10,000+ were admitted.
The tests required to get accepted changed every year, so there was little idea about the selection process. Lukas wondered what the test this year would be about.
Lukas looked around and noticed he wasn't the only one intimidated by the colossal gate and its walls. There were a lot of people standing still and admiring the sight before them.
If the outside was this impressive what would he find inside?
Lukas wondered as he steeled himself before going in as a wave of anticipation swept over him.

Noelle looked at herself in the mirror. She was looking good today. She wore a stylish red shirt and a pair of shorts, showing off her long legs, with black sneakers.
There was one reason why she was dressed like this. She was planning on taking the test at Aegis Imperial High School. There was no other school better for her.
She looked at herself in the mirror, satisfied with what she saw before making her way out of the room.
"-give it to me! It's mine!"
"No! It's mine!"
Two children around the age of five were arguing with each other while dragging an action figure of an anime character with a bald head and a cape.
There were two people with characteristic silver hair sitting on a couch trying to pacify the two kids.
Noelle laughed as she watched the drama unfold. Her laughter made all of them aware of her presence as they all turned to look at her.
The parents let out a sigh of relief at the sight of Noelle.
"Big sis Noelle!" the two children, obviously twins exclaimed as they threw away the action figure before diving into her arms.
"Nathaniel, Nash, did I hear you two arguing just now?"
"No big sis!" the children exclaimed simultaneously.
Noelle laughed again, showcasing pristine white teeth before reaching her hands into her pockets. She brought out 2 pair of candies, handed them the candies before shooing them away.
The children thanked Noelle before making their way to their room, running all the way.
"Thank you Noelle." Her father said. Her mother stood up and hugged Noelle before saying.
"You're taking the test today?"
"Yes mom." She replied.
Her mother reached into her pocket and brought a beautiful silver necklace. She looked at it fondly before handing it to her daughter.
Noelle looked at the necklace her mother handed her. It was a very beautiful necklace with a butterfly pendant on it. Noelle knew it was her mother's heirloom. She knew how much her mother cherished it as it was a gift from her late grandmother.
Noelle looked at her mother before asking.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes my baby. It has always been a source of strength for me. But I don't think I need it as much as you do. You can think of it as your good luck charm from now on. Please take it."
Noelle looked at the necklace, then at her mother, still contemplating if she should take it. After seeing the sincere gaze of her mother she finally took it and clasped it around her neck.
She hugged her parents before wishing them goodbye. As she stepped out the door a certain silver haired boy popped into her train of thoughts. She shook her head furiously, blushing as she made her way down the street. She hailed a cab, got in the backseat, told the driver her destination before relaxing.
"I wonder if he's going to be there today." Noelle thought as the car sped past the streets.

It was a veteran empire that was well above average in strength.They had cemented themselves as a power not to be trifled with during an incident that occurred 10 years ago, where 4 catastrophe class beasts joined hands together to attack the empire.Everyone had thought that the empire would suffer heavy losses and might be wiped out; but to their shock not only did the empire repel the attack, slaying 2 catastrophe class beasts, they did so while suffering minimum casualties.Since that incident, everyone acknowledged the Hundred Flowers Empire as a superpower.That wasn't the only peculiar thing about the empire.

They had underestimated the gravity of the issue.The Purple Pavilion was synonymous with devastation. Anywhere the Purple Pavilion appeared only destruction was left in their wake.They were a transcendental organization responsible for the destruction of various cities, kingdoms, and even empires.There was very little information about the transcendental organization, as every information known about them was extremely confidential."I believe everyone present is familiar with the name." General Yuklein stated, scanning the faces of everyone present."From the information given to us by the Magic Association, the Purple Pavilion is on the move. We don't know what their objective is yet but we have been told to be on standby.

"I mentioned earlier that everyone would not learn how to use mana sadly." Mr. Luis said as he looked at everyone present."The first step is Meditation." He said while glancing at everyone present."You all remember your awakening test don't you? You were asked to try and feel mana. During the tests, the orbs used are guided mana stones. They aid your ability to use mana; but to cast mana you will need to do it without aid."Mr. Luis cast his magic and a magic circle appeared. The magic circle was formed slowly this time and 14 symbols appeared before the circle formed."This is a basic magic circle. It has 14 symbols and each symbol must be supplied with mana consecutively before the spell is cast. You will learn how to draw this magic circle before you can cast a basic spell.""Everyone here has a mana circuit and a mana pool. The mana circuits are like wires which we conduct mana with. They draw mana from your mana pool and supply it to the magic circle to cast a spell.""The mana

Ciel was still shocked at the identity of the masked hunter. Although she had some suspicions, there were merely suspicions. What were the odds of the masked hunter that was her teammate being Lukas himself?From what she could tell, she could see that Lukas was very experienced as a hunter, even more experienced than her. She easily deduced that Lukas had thoughts along the same line as her after the traumatic experience at the Zivel forests, and decided to increase his strength by becoming a hunter.However, she did not account for the speed at which he grew. By some coincidence, they even managed to join the same guild, and were assigned to the same team, which was the only reason she was able to deduce his identity. With tumultous emotions raging wildly in her heart, she joined the village guards and started to help evacuate the helpless villagers while fighting against the saber toothed tigers, taking a passive stance in the heated battle.Lukas who had no idea that his identity

Saber-toothed Tigers
A surprised expression immediately appeared on Chief Keef's face, and the powerful aura that he had kept hidden suddenly skyrocketed. Without even sparing the three guests in his small hut a glance, he exited the hut in a haste. Amanda glanced at Lukas and Ciel briefly before exiting the small hut, leaving both Lukas and Ciel no other choice than to do so. When Lukas and Ciel appeared outside the small hut, the scene before them was one that they did not expect at all. Several huge monsters could be seen charging at the weak villagers. These monsters were incredibly huge, easily towering the villagers at more than 3 meters tall. They bore an uncanny resemblance to the tigers on earth, with few differences. The teeth of these monsters were incredibly sharp, cutting through the weak defenses of the villagers like tofu, and the four front canines were shaped like sabers, hence their name saber toothed tigers. At a single glance they could see more than fifty saber toothed tigers; an

Gien Village (II)
“What do you think you’re doing in my village?”Amanda swung her wand when she heard the voice, pausing the terrified villager’s fall. The villager had his heart in his mouth at that moment, as his face inches away from the ground. If the voice hadn’t interrupted Amanda from her actions, he had no doubt that he would have been face planted on the hard ground and turned into mashed paste.Lukas and Ciel were both shocked and curious that someone was capable of making Amanda cease her actions. They had no doubt in their minds that the villager was a goner when he mocked Amanda’s outfit. They were instead worried about how they would explain the injury of the villager to the Hunter Association when they submitted their quest report for clearing.Amanda slowly turned around to face the owner of the voice. There was shock in her eyes as she gazed at the chief. She was a silver ranked hunter and a Great Mage, which spoke volumes for her physical strength, but she was unable to sense the chi

The journey to Gien village was a smooth one, albeit a long one. It took seven hours for them to get to their destination, one hour longer than the usual time needed. Throughout the duration of the journey, both Lukas and Ciel maintained complete silence. Lukas instead spent the whole time looking outside the window of the van. He found himself missing Eipi all of a sudden. At least, the journey would not have been this boring.When they arrived at Gien village, the van dropped the three of them off before driving off speedily.Lukas and Ciel looked around the village as soon as they alighted from the van. As the name suggested, Gien village was truly a village. At a single glance both Lukas and Ciel could tell that it was very underdeveloped.The van had dropped them at Gien village, but they still had to walk a short distance before they got to the gate to the village.As the trio walked towards the gate, they ran their eyes around their surroundings.

The night passed quickly with Lukas following his daily routines which were his usual meditation and exercises.The next morning Lukas woke up early as usual. Amanda had informed them to arrive on time to the Guild building so that they could leave early and get to Gien village on time.Lukas dressed up in his usual hunting outfit, which were his stylish combat clothes, his jacket and most importantly his mask, before exiting the dorm.The dorm was still empty as usual, as the backlash from the attack had yet to die down. Lukas however wasn’t bothered about that. He would use this period to increase his personal strength. That had always been his goal.He took the cab as usual and got to the Guild building early. The meeting room was empty meaning that he was the first to arrive.Only a few minutes passed before the door to the room opened and a beautiful lady with blue hair stepped inside the room.It was of course Ciel.

“Denied.” Amanda said authoritatively, twirling her wand as she spoke.Ciel let out a light groan when she heard Amanda’s response. This was the fourth quest she had suggested to Amanda but she had denied it just like the other three she submitted to Amanda.Lukas stood up and handed over a document to Amanda. He didn’t read it this time because Amanda told them not to read out loud anymore. Their voices were sickening and would give her endless nightmares according to her.“Denied.” Amanda said again, still twirling her wand as she spoke.Lukas didn’t groan like Ciel. Instead he just turned and went back to searching for a new quest. After having his quests rejected eight times, twice that of Ciel, he gave up on complaining about the rejection. The time he used to complain was better spent on searching for new quests. He had learned from numerous rejections that his complaints meant nothing to Amanda.And just like that, two hours of their time were spent searching for new quests. Af

Choosing a Quest (I)
The reason for their shock was obvious and understandable. At their level as Basic Mages the feat that their team leader performed was completely shocking to them. Casting a magic spell without the use of a magic circle was something they couldn’t comprehend.They had been taught that it was impossible to cast a magic spell without a medium which was why magic circles were required for casting spells so seeing Amanda cast a magic spell without a magic circle was utterly shocking to them.Amanda paid them no heed. She could clearly see their confused gazes and shock at her method of casting magic but made no plans to explain it to them. Not only was it stressful to do so there was absolutely no need for her to do so. She saw no reason to explain the mystery to them.“These documents contain several quests issued by the Hunter Association. Completing the quests will give us contribution points which in turn can be used to level you both to the silver rank.”Lukas and Ciel leaned forward

A beautiful lady with light blue hair and very curvy body walked in. She was dressed in a fitting hunter’s outfit and at a single glance Lukas could tell that her outfit was enchanted.Her blue eyes that were just as beautiful as her hair scanned the room and came to rest on Lukas. However, her incredibly beautiful face scrunched up into a light frown of confusion when she saw Lukas.For one, Lukas face was as usual covered up with a mask, so she was unable to see his face. His silver hair was now long enough to be packed in a small ponytail, which was what he did.She looked at him for a few seconds before removing her gaze. Hunters were eccentric people anyways. It wasn’t abnormal to see someone wearing a mask.Meanwhile, Lukas was extremely glad that he had decided to wear a mask. The lady wasn’t able to recognize him because of the mask, but he was able to recognize her the instant she walked in.She was none other his senior at Aegis Imperial High School who followed them to the

New Rules
The new rule passed by the Chairman of the Hunter Alliance created a buzz among the Hunters. As expected, the hunters and Guilds were not welcoming of such rule. They had reported to the Hunter Alliance in hopes of them providing a reasonable solution, but instead all they got was a ban telling bronze ranked hunters not to participate in dungeon runs. Of course they were several bronze ranked hunters or Guilds who disregarded this rule and went ahead on dungeon runs. However their ending was far from ideal. The bronze ranked hunters all had their hunter’s license revoked permanently while the Guilds involved were given a 12 month ban on participating in dungeon runs. A 12 month ban was similar to crippling the Guild’s flow of profit because they couldn’t rely on expeditions alone, needless to say that dungeon runs were twice as profitable as expedition. When several hunters heard the harsh punishment passed on the hunters and Guilds that violated the rule, several bronze ranked hunt
