Lukas looked at Mr. Luis for a few seconds, his mind failing to register the words he just heard.

A deviant element? I awakened a deviant element? And the element is mercury?

Lukas looked at the fading magic circle in disbelief. After a few seconds, the disbelief turned into irritation.

What is this? This wasn't what I wanted to awaken! I wanted the violent fire! Or the cool wind! The solid earth was a good choice too, and water didn't seem too bad either.

But why this? I don't know a thing about this element! It's not even common among the known deviant elements!

Mr. Luis noticed Lukas look of irritation and laughed quietly. That was the normal expression one had when faced with something they knew little about. Once he climbed the ranks he would know how important his element was.

Mr. Luis coughed and everyone directed their attention to him. They had gone through a series of shocking episodes in the last 2 hours. This was probably the most shocked they had ever been in their lives.

    Lukas didn't know how long he slept for but it was noon when he woke up. This time around the room wasn't empty. There were two boys present in the room.He looked at them closely and saw that they were the ones who refused to return his greetings. This time he didn't bother greeting them; he just stood and went towards the bathroom.After taking a shower he was now feeling refreshed. Since there was nothing for him to do as today was a Saturday he decided to meditate. He wanted to increase his speed at drawing a magic circle.He was about to enter a meditative state when his phone rang. He wore a puzzled look on his face. He rarely received calls, as he didn't have many friends to begin with. The few he had he always texted them on social media.He picked up his phone and was further confused. It was an unknown number, which meant he hadn't gotten a call from this person before. He swiped his screen before placing the phone to his ear."Hello?" the person calling him was the first to

Different people walked on the streets, and the traders hawked their goods.The red light district was fairly active, with attractive ladies hustling for men or women to warm their beds.In what seemed to be a local restaurant, a group of people sat around a table. There were different types of food on the table and empty beer bottles littered the ground.The people seated around the table all had flushed cheeks and their head were spinning. They were very drunk. Their voices were loud and slurred, making them incomprehensible."-so I told him to f*ck off! And you know what he did?! He f*cking pushed me!"

    Lukas walked side by side with Ayleen, drawing attention because of her beauty. She didn't pay them any mind and walked confidently to the bus stop.When they got there, Lukas expected her to board the bus, but she didn't do that. She brought out her phone from her purse instead.Lukas noticed that the phone looked really expensive and wondered how much she would have spent to get it.Ayleen made a phone call, and in a few seconds she disconnected the call. Just a minute after the phone call, a pricey looking car with tinted windows came to a stop in front of them.A muscular bald man in suit came out of the car in a hurry and rushed to open the backseat of the car. Ayleen went in elegantly and sat down.When she saw Lukas still looking conflicted, she waved her hands and Lukas got in the car. The bald man closed the car and went to the driver's seat before driving away.Lukas sank into the soft leather seats of the car and nearly let out a groan. The seats were extremely comfortable.

    The next morning Ayleen woke up late. She had slept in probably because she didn't sleep early the previous night.When she stood up, she remembered everything that happened yesterday and blushed profusely.She really didn't know what came over her, but it was her who initiated it. She sighed. Now that she thought about it she didn't have any strong feelings towards him.Yes, he was very attractive but she felt that it was due to her joy of making a breakthrough that she locked lips with him. Hopefully he didn't think that there was something between them because of that.She shook her head and stopped thinking about yesterday. It was time for her to meditate. She had gotten a clear grasp on the direction to follow, thanks to Lukas. She didn't want to waste any more of her time.Mr. Luis had made it clear that they weren't to take a step into his class until they had completed his assignment. So she couldn't attend his classes yet. She made it a priority to complete his task before an

    Lukas looked at Mr. Luis with a befuddled expression on his face. He didn't understand a thing Mr. Luis said."Innate talent?" Lukas asked in a bemused tone."Yes. You have an innate talent." Mr. Luis replied confidently.Lukas scrunched his eyebrows, refusing to believe his teacher. Mr. Luis looked at the boy and like as if a truck hit him; all the pieces of the puzzle named Lukas Kerr became evidently clear.The reason why he took a week to complete the assignment that should have taken months, and the reason he was able to keep going despite the fact that he had been using mana continuously for the past 3 hours.It was all due to his innate talent. He was shocked when he saw the size of his mana pool. It was the size of a bona-fide Grand Mage. It meant that Lukas had the amount of mana seen in a Grand Mage's mana pool.The amount of mana he had was simply ridiculous.Normally, a basic mage would have different sizes of mana pools, those with larger mana pools would be able to cast

    Ayleen wasn't surprised when saw the element she had awakened. Her father and mother were both lightning users, and were very powerful ones at that. Her uncle was even a lightning user, and he had reached the peak demi god level by being a lightning user.She looked at the yellow sparks dancing wildly on the palm sized magic circle and smiled heartily. She could now attend classes.Now that she could create magic circles, all that remained was to learn the 1st tier spell of her element, cementing her status as a basic mage.She felt another wave of fatigue hit her, and she knew she couldn't put off her rest anymore. She removed her sweat soaked singlet before lying topless on the plush bed. Her body sank into the soft bed, and in a few seconds she fell asleep.***"Again." A voice stated coldly.Lukas groaned. His black shirt was soaked with sweat, and his brown skin glossy with sweat. His eyebrows furrowed, and without saying anything he started casting the magic circle presented to

    Inside a huge field the size of a soccer pitch, young students could be seen practicing different magic circles. Their eyes were filled with concentration, each of them focused on casting the 1st tier spell of their elements.In a corner of the field, a man in his early forties watched the enthusiastic children with an intensive gaze, mentally noting the talented ones, less talented ones, the hardworking ones and the indolent ones.Compared to 4 months ago, the students present were the cream of the crop who had all taken the first step to becoming basic mages. They were all incredibly close to completing the magic circle for their first tier spell, as they had been practicing very hard over the course of 4 months.Over the course of 4 months, he had expelled the students who weren't willing to put in the sweat and were content with being mediocre, and also those who were unable to complete the assignment despite their hard work.It might seem harsh on his part, but he was actually do

    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

    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

    “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. Lukas in particular was very al

    Summons

    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. She was also dressed in her combat suit, which was blue in colo

    “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
