Waking up early in the morning, I got up from bed and grabbed a morning drink.Yesterday, seeing the training wasn’t that effective just by running around, I ordered a bunch of weighted bracelets to harden the difficulty.Since they were yet to arrive, I just ran around for a while.Today is the day when the classes will start, so some of the students have already started their training.Returning back to my room, I trained with my sword for a while and took a shower to get ready for the class.Putting my clothes on, I left the room and started walking towards the class.Since Hannah is in Class A, she has her own place to attend classes. She messaged me yesterday, saying she had made some new friends from her class.It is pretty normal, considering she is already a friendly person, but still being a commoner might bring trouble, so I will be vigilant.When I left my room, I saw a pink-haired girl waiting in front of the dorm building.‘Hmmm?’Seeing me coming, she turned her head tow
[Darius, can you come to the sparring rings? Things may get messy here.]Seeing the message coming from Hannah, I made my way toward the sparring areas in the middle of the training grounds.Since there are those that like to spar with each other, the academy made an arena in the middle of the training grounds for those who wished to do so.And those four were headed there, too, to spar with each other.With my eyes open, looking around, I made my way there.“Hey, leave me alone.”“Come on. We just want a friendly spar here.”“We don’t want to.”“Heh? Are you scared of us?”“What?”“Just as I said before, I just wanted to have a friendly meal with you. We didn’t want anything else, right guys?”“Yes, yes. We just wanted to have a chat with you. Who would have thought you would refuse us like that? We are embarrassed, you know.”“So what? It is not like we needed to accept your invitation. Don’t you understand this…. We. Don’t. Like. You and your group. Leave us alone. I don’t have muc
No matter where you are, listening to a lecture that you know about is always boring.Since I had already studied those things beforehand for the entrance exam, that was basically boring. However, it is still the attitude that makes the change.If you are aiming for a good future where you are improving yourself, listening to others, no matter how knowledgeable you are, is a very important thing.That was the reason why I was still trying to listen to the boring lecture even though I was on the verge of sleeping.“Now, let’s talk about affinities. Anyone who wants to explain what affinity is?”Asking the question, Miss Delfina turned her attention toward the classroom.“No one? Then, Student Darius. Can you answer?”Looking into my eyes, she asked with a curious tone.“Affinity is basically the type of mana generated by the person’s own body, which is decided from birth. It is defined as the identity of the person’s will at the time of birth, and according to the affinity, one can com
For people in the modern world, how much free time do you have? I don’t really have much free time left from studying in college and doing part-time jobs, and because of that, I have decided to stop playing basketball. However, it would be very depressing if I didn’t have any hobbies; of course, I still have some. I love playing video games, especially RPG ones. Because you don’t need to commit yourself fully to one game in order to become a better player, like in online games, I have found peace while exploring the RPG game worlds. Last Friday, while returning from my part-time job at the convenience store, a commercial advertising a new RPG game called ‘Rise of the Fallen’ caught my interest. In the first place, I have been searching for a new RPG game for quite an amount time, and that’s why I bought it immediately. After arriving home, I started playing the game while eating my dinner. Because it was a one-week holiday from college, I didn’t see any reason not to start. Me? I a
When I woke up, there was an unfamiliar sensation all around my body. I remember that I finished the game Rise of the Fallen yesterday. However, I don’t remember doing some heavy activities that would result in this kind of heavy tiredness all over my body. After stabilizing myself and getting rid of the drowsiness, I found a chance to observe my surroundings clearly. Well, it seems like I am still dreaming or something like that because the ceiling, the room, the bed, the furniture, and all my surroundings are strange to me. I don't think I have ever been in a place like that in my entire life. In the first place, even though I was not very rich, I was not that poor to live in a room that showed clear signs of falling apart and had, at most, 10 m2 of space. The lighting of the room is very weak; it is like I am in some sort of basement. And what is with this messiness? There are trashes everywhere; how can a person even live there? I swear the person who brought me to this pla
I must say, I am impressed. Although this guy has not had much money in his account, it is still a pretty good amount for an orphan like him. It is just that he didn’t want to spend too much money on a room he would stay at most two weeks; thus, this room is that bad. Yes, he doesn’t have parents. Darius was found on a stormy night in front of Purple Rose Orphanage. The Nanny on the night watch heard him crying and decided to check if anyone was in front of the door. After that, she found him and decided to bring him in. At that time, there was pair of earrings in his hands, which had Darius writing on them. And after several calls to officials, they let her register him in the orphanage. The manager and nanny decided to name him Darius Nightborne. The name Darius comes from the earrings. His surname is Nightborne because he was found in the middle of a stormy night and has black eyes like an abyss. His childhood is expected in a sense if you exclude the bullying he had to go thr
Is it really helpful to wake up early in the morning? Most people don’t like waking up early, and originally, Darius was not an early-morning person either. However, that was not the case for me, and now I am in control of his body. This is changed; it is like we are the same but not the same at the same time. When I say ‘status’ in my mind, the status windows open in front of me. Status Strength – G- Agility – G Constitution – G-- Intelligence – G Mana – G Traits ???

When I entered, the first thing I noticed was that it was well-maintained with a professional impression; it was nowhere close to the fictional ones with drunk adventurers brawling and swearing at each other. This is not a tavern, so it is expected, I guess.At the receptionist’s desk, there is a beautiful lady. She has long black hair, red eyes, slender figure with no disturbing portions. Her name is Cassandra. However, it seems she worked overnight, and she is showing signs of insomnia as well. She was also working at another job, which is related to the blacksmith, because of the calluses in her hands. She also has a boyfriend whom she flirted with not too long ago, which I can understand from the act of trying to cover the hickeys in her neck.It seems the trait observer on effect. Anyway, it is not good to stare at someone you don’t know for too long, and it seems she was a bit uncomfortable as well.“Hello, how may I help you, sir?” she asked with a slightly tired voice.“Good m
