Chapter 66: Showing Them Around The Academy...
However, kranos caught it. Since he knew the mastermind was targeting him in the academy, he guessed that the mastermind must have subordinates.
Seeing the glint that flashed past Carlos’s eyes kranos immediately understood... So you’re the first one huh?
In his imaginative world, Kranos immediately started thinking of what would be the best way for a body to silently miss in the academy, since he couldn’t come up with any suggestion, he decided to act ignorant and see how things would play out.
Clearing his throat he replied with a faint smile, "my descent was just like second brothers’, i teleported to a royal family, i had to strive just to achieve my second stage foundation establishment realm." kranos sighed as he spoke, it was as though he went through a great deal of trouble.
In truth he did, just not as easy as he made it out to be. However, carlos squinted his eyes, "is that so?" he stared at kranos deeply as though he was trying to decipher if hte boy was lying or not.
Kranos’ expression didn’t change as he nodded, just as carlos was about to press further, mark interrupted then saying, "second brother is that where our classes will be held?"
Carlos turned his gaxe and looked at the buildings which appeared in front of him, it was two storeys tall, on it was writted first year’s alpha alchemy. Carlos nodded and explained, "this is where all the alchemy classes and experimets will hold, there are other buildings for side professions like the first year alpha weapon, first year alpha array and formations, and so on."
Carlos explained as they walked, soon they reached the buildings he talked about, they were similarly structured. However, soon kranos and the others encountered a building that was larger than normal, it was divided into sections.
Kranos ponndered for a moment when carlos immediately introduced the building, "this is the cultivation classes, where you will be taught based on the elemental, cultivation and martial technique you practice. There are rooms of the corresponding elemental techniques. While there are fewer rooms for cultivation and martial techniques, each instructor can explain some other techniques to a certain degree."
At this moment carlos added, "of course you have to pay the correspponding points," as soon as he was done talking he turned to kranos and the others and gestured for them to follow him, "let me show you to the last place, quite possibly the best place in the academy."
With that he led kranos and the others along the path and after more than ten minutes had passed they finally encountered a... portal? They were stunned, thankfully carlos immediately clarified their doubts.
"This is the portal that leads to the shopping pavilion." carlos said and studied their expressions, he immediately noticed their shock and nodded inwardly, he too was shocked when he discovered that the shopping pavilion was located in a different realm.
"around some areas of the academy for every year’s students, they have a portal leading to the secret realm. Upon entering the secret realm you will appear in a mysterious space, giving your token and specifying what you need the secret realm will immediately present the corresponding item. If you have insufficient points you will be informed as well."
Hearing carlos’ explanation, the shock of kranos and the others only intensified. They immediately looked at him with a burning gaxe, carlos could instantly guess their thoughts after all he too had been eager to explore and see what he could purchase, however the reality of how much points he had hit him after he entered.
Thinking this he grinned towards kranos and the others and said, "well? What are you waiting for? Quickly go in and purchase what you need!" at the same time he transmitted his voice to mark and joy informing them to be cautious with spending their points, after all each lesson caused one hundred points. However he didn’t inform kranos as he wanted him to waste his points and later wallow in regret.
What he didn’t know was that kranos was a very cautious person, he had already decided that he would explore everything before ultimately deciding on how to spend his merit points, he wasn’t as impulsive as the other children.
With that he stepped into the portal with carlos and the others, kranos didn’t think this would be a trap, after all they were still within the academy’s premises, he didn’t believe carlos, and the mastermind would have the guts to plot his death here.
In a flash he disapeared as soon as he stepped into the portal, after the wave of spatial fluctuations engulfing him subsided kranos realised he had appeared in what seemed to be a spatious white room filled with nothing but a holographic screen.
Upon closer look, he realised that there was a particular slot on the screen, is this for my jade token? He pondered as he took it out, upon inspection he realised that they seemed to fit perfectly, with that he immediately inserted the jade token into the holographic screen, kranos had already realised that the screen seemed to be some kind of array formation.
With this his interest in array formations increased greatly, he decided that as one of the side professions he would definitely learn. He studied array formation as it flashed with a pale green light as soon as his token entered.
Soon after he noticed a line of words apearing, the next moment, however he was shocked upon reading the information clearly. He realised his merit points was one million.
Is that considered much? Kranos didn’t know the standards of the academy’s merit point concerning the descent so he didn’t know if his merit points was large or small compared to others. Not dwelling on it much he tapped on where purchase was located.
After thinking about it kranos realised that what he needed most was a movement technique, especially one which could faintly be merged with the use of time. Even though his speed was fast with the space element, kranos still felt like he could improve on it, it was one of his biggest strength, if he couldn’t defeat an enemy retreat was always a better option, he wasn’t willing to fight someone to the death when he could just become stronger and defeat them later.
He also needed a similar sword art which combined the use of space element, and if possible time...
