After reading a bit inside my room. I called Elena and told her when we will leave for class.Though this world had no smartphones. They develop a device solely for communication. Unlike smartphones that you can use to call someone even on the other side of the earth, this world's communication device is the opposite. After receiving her answer, I prepared to leave and waited outside the dormitory for Elena.After waiting for a couple of minutes, Elena appeared but not alone.It seems that she has some friends inside the academy which is good for her."Did I keep you waiting long?" Elena"No, I just arrived here also." Jin"Is that so? Anyway, Jin these are my friends. Melissa and Sasha. We are in the same class" ElenaI slightly bow my head to pay respect to them and properly introduce myself."Hello! I am Jin and Knighted by Earl Albert Haynes to protect Elana." Jin"Hello, it seems that Elena's stories are true." Melissa"Yes, I wonder if the other story she told us is also true."
After ending her lesson and getting all the applications from the upcoming match. Beatrice left the classroom and headed to her office.Jin Hale, you are a mystery. First His Majesty personally wrote a letter to skip the strict initial screening and the headmaster himself invited you to his office.She entered her office and start evaluating the application from her students.This years' elimination match will be eye-catching since many 3rd-year students that surpass the standard of the academy will participate in the said event.But what added to the fire is the mysterious Jin Hale. She already did the investigation about his background since she was very pissed off when the strict initial screening was skipped.She was one of the two out of five instructors who didn't accept bribes, do the initial screening, and choose students if they have potential.All information was blocked except the day he met Alena and knighted due to the deed he did.Since it's itching her to know more, she
The news of an official match traveled like a free wind on the whole academy.Many students started betting on who would win. There are also instructors that we're intrigued by the match.And two particular instructors were most intrigued, namely Beatrice and Robert. Both of them are friends and previous advisors of His Majesty.They were seated exclusively for instructors."Who do you think will win the match?" Beatrice"Hmm. I think it's Jin if he can go all out and avoid a single mistake. Chad was gifted since he was young and honed his magic and swordsmanship." Robert"How about Jin?" Beatrice."He's competent enough, although the headmaster personally screened his potential. I can't say that he can easily win this match." Robert"Are you saying that Jin has a higher chance of winning this match as long as he goes all out?" Beatrice"Yes. Besides my gut tells me that child is a veteran swordsman." Robert"Oh-ho! That's exciting. Let's see how powerful he is. If His Majesty wrote t
Every time I yawned his face become more distorted. I was about to say something when I heard him confidently say that he will end me now.Did I hear it right?Then he laughed"HAHAHAHA!" Chad"Now face the consequences of embarrassing me!" ChadAnd then he fired his most powerful attack.Oh-ho. I can feel that this magic is comparable to the E-rank. How can I tell?Ever since honing my core and magic, I become more sensitive to mana.Since I can tell how powerful his attack was. I supposed I'm currently on D-rank.Everyone is amazed how a fireball can be that large and fast.Unfortunately for him. I use mana strengthening on my feet that are quickly infused with wind attributes.Then the large arena where I was standing was covered with fire.I still heard Chad laughing his heart out loud.All the students and some instructors who were pissed on me due to my deal with Robert cheered with joy.Guess it's about time."Are you done? Why are you laughing?" JinHis happy face becomes conf
News of defeating Rank 17 by a new student in an official match sent an uproar in the Academy. Even the instructors were surprised.He thought that the gazes he received will die down, but he was wrong. Defeating Chad added more gazes toward him.Whatever, I've done what should I have done.I felt a little built of guilt for making him my steppingstone to my goal.I will not forget your contribution to my plan.Three days quickly passed, and I become more excited.Beatrice and Robert promise to teach me every Saturday until I learn everything they can teach.Are they too trusting?It's weird that they are willing to teach me. Regarding Robert, it's understandable since we made a deal, but I cannot say the same with Beatrice.I think she wants something in return.Whatever it is, I can just solve it for my future self. For now, let's enjoy the benefits of getting more information and honing my skills and magic.Speaking of skills, the only skill known to every race is mana strengthenin
Yes, I can levitate for a period of time. On my last day at Haynes Castle, I was lying on the ground under the shade of a tree while contemplating my attributes. I tried to use my wind magic to get the fruit above me. First, I just want to try if I can get the fruit which I did. Thanks to my lazy characteristic, the idea comes up to my mind. With a little bit of help from science, the subject is called Buoyancy. How can the airplane fly? For a simple explanation, the airplane that is moving forward can generate energy called lift. How about the helicopter? Using the rotor blades that spin so fast, they can generate the same energy called lift. How about me? Since during my training in Haynes Castle, it helps me become more sensitive to mana. Then I research more about mana and found a piece of useful information. A human with the wind attribute is the most sensitive to mana and that is also the reason why I was easily found out by Beatrice. Going back, wind magic can bend the ma
I was only seeking an audience to confirm if Jin Hale is our ally but due to certain situations. The simple question I want to ask turns into a serious and secret meeting.When I headed to Royal Palace. I was expecting to be welcome in the throne room but to my surprise, I was led to the secret meeting room we always used when I'm still an advisor of His Majesty.When I enter the room, Albert is also there seating while drinking tea.His Majesty who always wore not so luxurious apparel stands up and welcomes me.His wrinkles all over his face are a sign of his age is getting upon him.But his aura is still refined during his glorious days."Beatrice, come. Please be seated. It's been a long time." His MajestyI smile thinking that the humble king didn't even change.I bow my head in respect and heeded his advice.After taking my seat I send my regards and reply"Yes, His Majesty is still the same as the last time we met." BeatriceHis Majesty smiled"So do you. I want to give you a pr
As time goes by, the birds chirping are gets clearer until I can hear it like I'm just standing next to it.I widened my eyes and released the mana.Seeing my expression, Beatrice grinned at me."So, did you get me now?" Beatrice.I just nodded my head."But still, saying that eating the food you spit is not ladylike." JinThen I feel again that terrifying mana. Before I can react, she sends me flying into the wall of the training room but before I passed out, I muttered something."Please teach me that also…" JinSeeing and hearing it, Beatrice just sighed and carry him to the clinic.I just walk up to the clinic bed and after a brief questioning by the nurse, she let me rest in my dorm.When I returned, I started to meditate again.After a few hours of meditation, I start to think about the message we received earlier. Albert wants us to prepare and come home to Haynes Castle if needed depending on the next message we will receive by tomorrow. I have a bad premonition about this ki
