Chapter 11: Pseudo level-4 Magician
Tonight I need rest; I’ll think about what to do next after I wake up. With that, I fell into a deep slumber. --- “Amerus, are you sure about this?” “Yes, Markus. As I said before, we are here to choose champions who would stand above all. What you lot are doing but spoon-feeding your candidates.” “We do know that, but what can we do. We don’t have much time. He is coming.” “Exactly, for that reason, our champions had to be strong and independent. I’ll show my champion a path to become strong. Nothing more, nothing less.” “Whatever, it is your champion. I agree with you, but you intend to go extreme. It may hinder your champion.” Hearing them, the old man Amerus snorted. To him, someone to reach the peak of existence has to be strong and independent without help from anyone. --- ‘Yawn’ It was noon when I woke up. My body felt relaxed, and the stress was gone. For ten days, I didn’t have a good sleep. Some consider Meditation is better for the body than sleep, but I contradic

Chapter 12: Unbelievable SHOP##
Now that I escaped the horror narrowly, I should check what the shop has for me to buy. ‘SHOP’ What the Damn Hell? Why are these so costly? The moment I opened the shop section, I felt like I was cheated. The items looked good, but the prices were unbelievable. The Cheapest items are the Bronze class weapons, and they cost no less than 100 points each. I only got 40 points in total after completing two hidden missions. If this goes on like that, I need to complete at least 5 missions in order to afford a Bronze class weapon. I’m sad not because I couldn’t afford those Bronze class weapons but thinking about the rates of Silver class or Gold class weapons. Their prices would for sure reach the sky. Moreover, from their descriptions, the quality seems to be very high than those of weapons I have seen before. They also offer buffs to the wielder, which only armors did. Weapons are for ignoring the enemy’s defense and killing, not increasing the wielder’s power. I need to get my han

Chapter 13: Recruitment (1)
I used all the points I acquired during these ten days to increase my Mana capacity. After all, the more Mana one has, the more spells one can cast. Above that, there isn’t a device to determine one’s Mana. Only the magician can estimate the number. I’ll be safe as they won’t check the number of spells cast. Of course, casting powerful spells requires a large amount of Mana, but as far anyone knows, there are only one or two Level-1 spells that require huge Mana and none of them are of Ice element. I want the attention of recruiters, not everyone’s attention. If I perform too well, it would be like I’m inviting problems myself. ‘Status’ -- Name: Damon Oswyn Age: 16 Race: Human Shop Points: 40 Level Alter points: 0; Cool-down: 24 hours Level: 1 (Locked) Orbit-1: 1 Affinity: Ice Grade: Black Innate skill: Ice Dragon Level-1 Skills: Ice Breath Level-1 , Ice Field Level-1 Weapons: None Health: 32 (+10) Strength: 16

Chapter 14: Recruitment (2)
I walked to the open space to demonstrate what I’m to these buggers so that I have a chance to be recruited by the top academies. I walked back to my position, I could hear everyone mumbling, but many were surprised that I could seamlessly use a skill. It is not something many achieved at this point in time. As I returned to my position, the day progressed without many excitements. At the end of the day, the principal posted our names list with the academies that were interested in us. I checked mine first and saw that only one academy was interested in me, and it was not even in the top three. I checked other student names, and though the top academy recruited fewer students or no students, the other two were eager to get many students. Pearl City Magic Academy, I can understand, but what about the other two? Why didn’t they offer to recruit me? It wasn’t my grade because one of the students with a grade the same as me got the offer. I even performed better than him, better than

Chapter 15: Leaving and Arriving
I told Mary and Thomas to be careful on the morning of my departure. One reason my home was safe was because of the association. It’s not like they cared about my safety, but they didn’t want the city to think that the safety of the people was compromised. Even though there are many who see me with disgust, there are few who don’t believe in those rumors. If something happened to me in the city, a small spark could burn the image of the association. Now that I leave for the academy, they don’t need to be concerned deeply about my safety. I repeatedly told them not to wander far and never at night. If someone comes to visit, don’t let them inside at any cost. They understood my concern. Even for others, my grade is Yellow; my performance has definitely caught their eyes, though I tried to avoid that. If they see me as a threat, they would certainly make a move against Mary and Thomas or against me. I need to control what others could be able to see. I think I shouldn’t have increas

Chapter 16: The Headmaster
When I looked around, I saw that everyone was getting into formation. While this was happening, I saw that there is an old man standing in front of us. Seeing them both Claire and I followed suit. As everyone stood in formation, the old man spoke, “Welcome to the THORN HILL MAGICAL ACADEMY. My name is Rupert Dyne and I work here as the HEADMASTER.” When the students heard that everyone gasped. Rupert Dyne is one of the legends that are alive. He is a Level-9 Magician but some say he crossed that level. There are rumors of levels that are beyond Level-9 but they remained rumors. No one came out and said that they crossed to a level beyond Level-9. So the realms that lay beyond stayed in the rumors realm. I shouldn’t think about that for now. The only way to confirm is to first become a Level-9 Magician. Anything else can wait for now. “I know many of you have arrived from far places and you are tired, so I’ll keep my speech simple. We all know that weakness is a sin. There may be s

Chapter 17: Academy Begins
The Next Morning I woke up early to do routine body exercises. Though I can increase my stats with points, if I stay lazy and don’t do things, my body will go stiff. I’ll become a statue that moves in one direction. I would be the easiest moving target in history. It’s not the only reason, I should keep up appearances. If I appear lazy and suddenly grew stronger, everyone will suspect that I have treasured. All eyes will turn towards me. Before becoming strong, I need to keep the stronger eyes away. If they see that I was improving like every other magician, they won’t pay much attention. When I become the strongest, even if they think that I possess treasures, they can’t hurt me in any way. After my exercises, I took bath to clean myself and put on the new academic wear. The clothes have runes, which adjusted to our bodies pretty easily. This would reduce the need to buy new clothes every time the body has slight improvement. This is one of my recent concerns. After I started
