Chapter 80 - The Price of Becoming a Pioneer
Felix remained silent for a long moment.Then he asked, “Ryan, what do you think a Pioneer is?”The question made Ryan pause.“Someone who opens up new territory in Asterra.”“And?”“They establish colonies. Explore. Expand human territory.”Felix slowly nodded.“That’s a very beautiful way of putting it.”Ryan caught the change in his tone.Felix looked directly at him.“Now imagine a group of strangers crossing into your world.
Chapter 79 - Categories of Simulation Exam
“Don’t speak so loudly!”Felix Arden immediately pressed a finger to his lips the moment Ryan entered the garden area of the Logistics Department.Ryan stopped.“What’s wrong?”“Keep your voice down!”Felix answered in an almost-whisper.Ryan looked around. There were no other students nearby, only several plots of strange plants, enclosures filled with hybrid creatures, and rows of pale purple leafy vegetables Felix was tending.Ryan walked closer.“I wanted to ask about tomorrow’s Monthly Exam—”
Chapter 78 - The Price of Ten Years
“Don’t treat death as part of your strategy.”Gareth Crowe cut through the whispers spreading across the lecture hall.Ryan looked away from Evelyn.Gareth raised the Redscar Gorge document. “There are three objectives written here, but if you want to simplify things, consider there to be a fourth objective that isn’t listed.”He paused.“Come back alive.”No one laughed.“Failing to earn Merit Marks can be fixed next month.

Daytime temperatures were extremely high, rainfall was scarce, and most of the region consisted of red rock formations inhabited by creatures capable of surviving in extreme environments.Around one-third of the area had once belonged to the Stormveil Kingdom.At the time, Stormveil’s border force
Chapter 76 - Basic Fire Resistance
[New Ability Acquired.][Basic Fire Resistance Lv.1]Felix had originally hoped the experiment would increase Ryan’s Intelligence or produce some form of Fire Affinity.The actual result was completely different.Strangely enough, that only made the man even more excited.Elemental resistance wasn’t an ability that could be easily acquired through ordinary training. First-year students hadn’t even touched that field in their curriculum yet.Ryan had somehow become one of the earliest freshmen to acquire basic elemental resistance.“Congratulations,” Felix had said.
Chapter 75 - Twenty Points
“Twenty.”Ryan stared at the final number on the Blackthorn Sigil panel in his room.One month.It had only been one month since he stood before the Mirror of Appraisal with a total of nine attribute points, a number so low that even Gareth Crowe had questioned how Ryan had received an invitation to Blackthorn in the first place.Now, his status looked completely different.﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣[Ryan Volde's Status]Name: Ryan VoldeAge: 23Academy Credits: 40
