"We would have to use the formation to end this quickly.." Dave was looking desperate as beads of sweat drops down his face. He didn't expect that they would be having a hard time in beating up Nimuel and the others. Dave gave the rest a signal and they immediately changed their position in order to set out the formation."Their pattern of attack has changed, what are they planning to do??" Ethel observed closely while still trying to attack Dave and those with him. "It seems that they are trying to flank us....are they trying to get into position for a formation?" Ethel's eyes opened as she realized what they were about to do. 'This is bad....'Before she could pass the warning to Nimuel and the rest Dave and the rest had already set up the formation, and Ben with an enormous surge of shadow energy, he activated the formation.Instantly, Nimuel felt unstable with a huge suppressive force pressing him down."Damn....am already been restricted from mobilizing shadow energy cause of the
"That's a Lunar Bow!!"Dave was shocked the moment he saw the bow that Reina activated, "why do they have such good things on them?...we must teach them a lesson, they can not be allowed to be left alone."He turned to face Nimuel who was already launching at him at high speed with Ethel."Nimuel", Ethel called, "let me go after the ones in mid Gama phase, you can face the one in late Gama phase.""...Okay..."Nimuel turned sharply to face the one in the late Gama phase that accompanied Dave to the ambush."Shadow Supreme Sword Art!!!....Second Layer!!!....Sword Resonance!!"Nimuel released his attack on the one in late Gama Phase, trails of shadow energy was emitted from his sword as he swung it aiming for the vital points."Damn, how did this junior student get to have an attack skill like this? If I don't block this with my strength I would be seriously injured.""Dark Shield!!!""Damn, he blocked it?" Nimuel was taken aback at how his attack was blocked, but knowing he was facing
"Hey guys!!", Eamon called on them as he approached them with Nimuel following quietly."Where's Mina?" Nimuel asked curiously as he looked around not seeing her."She received a message that she was need in her class, I guess one of her instructor called for her attention." Ethel replied."But she said we can go on to the academy's cafeteria without her. She would be joining us when she is done", Reina moved close to Nimuel and held his hands as gesture for them to keep going."Hmm...I guess we would have to go first then."They left heading towards the cafeteria, Ethel wasn't feeling too comfortable with the fact that Mina was suddenly called upon. She knew what Leah and Karl were capable of doing."Ethel", Eamon called, "you look quite anxious.""Yeah.....I suddenly don't feel right...""Don't worry, you might have been over thinking it.""I just hope so."After walking for ten minutes, "the distance between the cafeteria and the Infernal training center is not small..." Eamon said
"Big Sis, do you think they would have been done with their training by now?" Reina asked Mina. They had decided to go take a hot bath after finishing their drill."They should be done by now", Mina scrubbed Reina's back gently as they bathed, "but we would still go check on them after we are done taking our bath." "Huff...Huff....Hufff..." Eamon and Nimuel breath hard as they staggered out of the dimensional room."Ni..muel....Why is this test so hard?""Can..'t..say..."They fell to the ground after struggling to come out of the dimensional room. "Nimuel, that test was just our first, and still its this hard.....can't help to feel scared what the coming tasks is going to be like."'Considering what Eamon said, this is just the first test..and it's this hard...how would the coming ones be? And to think that we still have the weights on us....I get to see why Mina and Adjudicator Julia resents Mr Roderick.' Nimuel was lost in thoughts as he couldn't help but consider the difficulty
Eamon looked at Nimuel, he was sure that he had found a way to defeat the wind, 'but what does he mean by looking at the "trees and the birds?"Nimuel knew he was confused so he turned to him to explain what he meant, "the trees can withstand the wind, though some break under its force also the birds can successfully fly in the wind, and some even go as far as using the wind as a guide, its almost as if they can see a path way between the lines of waves that makes up this movement."Eamon quickly understood what Nimuel was trying to say, they would have to control their weight and place their legs firmly on the ground while moving their body in a streamlined manner that would reduce resistance to their movement."But Nimuel, the speed at which the wind is moving, would the strategy work?""We would just have to try, at least we have been able to get through to about thirty meters before. If we do this now, we might be able to get to eighty meters."They nodded to each other as they st
Karl looked at Leah in disbelief, everyone knows how powerful and dreadful his big brother is, though he is not the strongest student in the academy, but he is amongst the top five."Leah, what are you talking about?"Leah walked subtly across the room close to Karl, "just now, I saw big brother Greg falling out with Mina", she paused and looked at Karl who was already eager to hear what scheme she has."Well", she continued, "the reason for their falling out was because big brother Greg is obsessed with Mina...."Karl looked at Leah impatiently, he already knew this, it has been known that his brother has been infatuated with Mina since he entered the academy. But she had never paid him any attention. Those of the house of Craige had always gotten what they wanted, by any means possible. But ever since he met Mina he had been at lost too, he couldn't possibly do anything since she is also from a powerful family."Leah, brother Greg's infatuation over Mina is known to everyone, how wo
"This is the training center for the Infernals", Mina stretched her hands, "this is where those admitted as an Infernal would be""Wowww", Reina's face shone in excitement, though she wasn't looking at where Nimuel was looking."Does this girl not see the various machines here? Look at how dangerous they are all looking, and she is still excited. One would wonder if we are preparing to battle the devil himself." Nimuel's attention was caught by the various trap system, battle robots and other training machines that suggest the kind of hell they are about to go through.[If it was the devil that you would have to prepare to battle, it would have been better, at least you can bargain with your soul. But the existence you would be battling can not be negotiated with.]"Welcome to the training center.." Mr. Roderick walked into the big training hall from a door that Nimuel did not notice before. "I was told that you were knocked out by your own cultivation method, but you sure do look fine
Nimuel didn't feel good when Xarpler said Mui was going to show him his stat."Okay, fine..", Nimuel looked at Mui wondering how she was going to do it, "is it going to be like in the games?"{What games Brother?} Mui asked innocently.[Brat, I already told you that right now Mui is like a new born child, and the only thing she has in her memory are the details of the various shadow cultivation methods since ancient times.""Oh sorry, I guess I was too forward."{No problem Brother} Mui raised her hands and a grey screen with shining silver edges with antique like designs appeared before Nimuel. On the screen he could see the his current features just how it has been interpreted by the shadow matrix and their values."What the.....why are the values so low?""What's low", Reina asked as she looked into empty space, she wondered what Nimuel was seeing in front of him that made him shout.[Seems only Nimuel and I aside Mui would be able to see your stats. Seems Reina won't be able to se
[Brat, its time for me to teach you the Shadow System.] Xarpler said to Nimuel. They had gotten back to Mina's mansion after completing their registration into their various departments in the academy. "Okay." Nimuel after cleaning up sat down and switched fully into his sea of consciousness. He was long prepared for it and had trained his mind for this day. He had to learn the Shadow System if he is to get stronger. But he would have to fully refine the essence of the Shadow Matrix he absorbed when he was in the tower of shadows.[So, you would have to be precise and listen to me carefully. In cultivating the Shadow System, you would need to refine its essence into a core. The will of the core would serve as its source. I think some humans refer to it as the system admin, or something of that sort.]He brought out the essence of the Shadow matrix into his sea of consciousness, a foggy white object appeared. It ran randomly at high speed in his Mind space (also his sea of consciousne
