Chapter 98 - Chapter 98: The Academy

Intrigued by the staff, he proceeded to use 'Inspect' on each of the other weapons, of which 3 were of the Spiritual Grade, 2 were Spiritual+, 1 was Spiritual++ and the last 2 were Spiritual+++. 

After he finished, he continued looking around the room. Finding nothing that interested him, he went out of the office then he proceeded to the classrooms.

'A large room, windows on the side, 6 rows of seats, each ascended higher than the last, and 3 columns of seats. 2 tables on the small stage in front of the board, and some utility tools. Seems like the academy is rich enough to be able to afford good quality facilities, and curtains. Curtains, yup that's important'

He briefly thought as he continued to wander around the school. On his little journey, he discovered that there were not only the usual but also various types of facilities in the school, some were for training, some for experimental subjects, and some even had magical items and resources. Most of them were lecture rooms though.

After he finished exploring the various rooms, he went out the building and began to wander around the large compound of the academy. He first went to the other two buildings, and found nothing interesting, probably because they were the dorms. Next were the training grounds, and just like the dorms, there was nothing notable, unless you exclude the arrays prepared around them for safety and protection.

The garden, on the other hand, was quite lovely, filled with flowers and herbs of many kinds. Trees were planted here and there, and were of various shapes and sizes. He also remembered to take note of the large tree in the middle of the garden, as it served a special purpose. The tree was called the 'Lesser Tree of Life' and with its presence, the surrounding greenery did not need to worry about nutrition nor water as long as it was alive. It basically was a Fountain of Life for the surrounding nature.

After he finished observing it, he wandered his gaze and looked at the large hall and playing area. They also did not have anything special stored within them, so he moved on to the final building.

This one was a bit detached from the others, but was not too close to the walls either. It was a cylindrical building consisting of blocks of stone. Holes of varying sizes were carved through its walls but had no light entering nor escaping from them. It looked quite weird and unusual. The presence of signs warning against approaching made it looked even more menacing.

Even the entrance looked different from the other buildings. While the others had doors carved with great accuracy and artistry, and were made of wood and metal of exceptional quality. This one was just a simple door made of planks and a knocker for a handle, it also did not have a keyhole, as if there was no use for one anyway.

He actually knew what it was from the basic atmosphere surrounding the building. It was a Dungeon. 

What exactly is a Dungeon? A Dungeon is a kind of different plane of existence, a mirror world of sorts. Everything that happens inside the Dungeon stays in the Dungeon, and does not affect the outside world, though, the materials and items and other objects, including living beings, can be brought out of the Dungeon.

Though it certainly is a rare sight to see on this planet, some civilizations across the universe are dependent on these Dungeons for their livelihoods and their survival, making use of the natural resources and livestock which the Dungeon brings along.

But, to the inhabitants of this planet, they are merely annoying landmarks which, if not taken care of properly, would spawn out monsters thereby causing casualties and destruction upon the land. Though, in recent years, countries have started to become aware of the immense natural resources which could be cultivated and thereby be used to enhance their economic and military prowess.

"It certainly is a very useful tool. To be able to grow and advance without having to deplete the natural environment of the home planet. The academy most likely uses it to help students gain real life combat experience. Though, it certainly must be a hassle having to clear it out regularly."

As Godo muttered to himself, he used 'Inspect' on the building. After a brief silence, he sighed.

"Its properties really aren't worth mentioning, the kids shouldn't have any problem with this."

Then with a calm and easy mind, he proceeded to fly away.

While slowly gliding through the air he wondered what he should do next. Only about an hour had passed and it wasn't even midnight yet. So, he wondered what his next course of action should be.

Along his train of thought, there was a little compartment called 'Things i do not know currently'. And in this compartment was a passenger named 'Important Events around the world' and this, caught Godo's mind. So he decided to go to the library to search for books on the subject.

With most of the candles and lamps in the city already out, almost all the libraries had closed. But, the Southern Library, officially named The Southern Library of Exeem, still had lamps on active. So, he flew down and decided to go in.

Somewhere, Still Inside a Forest, With a Certain Elf Boy and His Companions.

An elf boy was walking along with his various companions belonging to different species. 

A few days had passed since he came to this world and today, he was finally going to check on one of his [Skills], 'Creator's Blades'.

" I had been so captivated by my summons and the world around me that i completely forgot about the combat skill i also picked."

The elf boy spoke as if he was talking to his animal companions. Unsurprisingly, the animals gave out roars and grunts as if they agreed to his words. 

So, the elf picked up a sturdy looking stick and began to look at the skill's description.

---------------------------

[Creator's Blades]

[Rank-7]

A skill created by an unknown being named Godou. It is a compound skill that contains various other techniques and skills. As the name suggests, it is a skill related to weapons, such as knives, swords, greatswords, etc. Do note that the skill may gain more techniques according to the actions taken by Godou.

--------------------------

"Rank-7? A compound skill? What's that... Wait, [Skills] can be created by people?"

The elf was completely bewildered by the quality of the [Skill] he had chosen.

This was to be expected because back while he was picking his skills, he did not have the liberty to check the skill's rank and the description.

Even his other [Skills], 'Subdue' was only a Rank-2 and 'Complete Restoration' was a Rank-4. Besides, he had only chosen it due to its name containing the word 'Creator'.

The elf became silent and stared blankly at the air in front of him, seemingly thinking about something.

After some time, he faced his companions and said,

"Who would've thought a skill I chose just due to its name would be such a great skill. Your leader here is now not only strong, but also skilled, well, albeit I'll still have to learn it and use it. Still, our future is now brighter than before!"

He said with much enthusiasm, and following his words, his companions also roared and cried happily. The elven forest, 'The Great Forest of The World Tree', gave life to a legendary being that day.
