Chapter 43 - Realize

Rein opened his eyes the first thing he saw was the white ceiling followed by the face of Zolin, who seemed over the top worried, "are you okay? Can you get up?"

Rein tried to push himself up but soon gave up, he's body was bandaged, he looked up and asked. "what happened?"

"apparently you were hit by a deadly attack called qi, you've got this big scar on your back"

"what?!! Damnitt.." Rein closed his eyes for a short while then continued, "so did I get disqualified from the game."

"well I won't say that, because the issue is still being resolved"

"huh? What do you mean"

"surprisingly a lot of instructors and students stood up for you. Easterners though. So not to look biased the higher ups had to take the matter into hand, and besides what he hit you has not been taught yet in school, it a high level of qi according to rhe northerners"

"what the hell is qi?"

"i don't know, but the most important thing is that you survived, by the way don't you think you've been wasting your time lately"

".... why?" Rein answered dumbfoundedly, trying to figure out why Zolin would think he's wasting his time.

"why do you keep going into the tier C forest and dungeons. I know we received exclusive rights to manage all high tiers dungeons but, I feel you're playing around with mythical beast instead of training and putting what you learnt in classes into practical use, and for real I don't think you're old enough to handle multiple classes, you should just choose my kind of job."

Rein murmured, "God forbid...''  'I'm looking for a less stressful life yet you want me to adopt a kind of job that I will have to kill people to get stronger, not happening'

"uhh you said something?"

"why would I?"

"you're mocking my Job right..."

"I'm tired, I think I need to go back to sleep"

"anyways, be careful around the tier A and higher tiers, and don't go to the tier S and god level tier dungeons. The beast that exist there are not friendly, this is a direct information from the head instructor, but well you can choose to be stubborn", Zolin walked out.

Rein had a bright smile on his face, "of course, I have to be stubborn, you only get what you want by being stubborn about it, I hate my current state, and I wanna be strong enough so I won't be bothered by anyone. So my aim is to defeat and loot the god level tier dungeon before I leave this academy."

I will disqualify your other teammate from the game, and the only way for you to get in the game is become friends with that very boy whom you almost killed, i don't want to know anything about it. All I know is that if you love changpu, then you wouldn't have let emotions control you. I expected more from you lieutenant Lianxi.

"I'm sorry sir"

"you don't owe me an apology, you know who you owe."

"yes sir" Lieutenant Lianxi saluted and left the head instructor's office.

The head instructor Korral laid back to his chair. "this particular generation might be a repeat of what happened 700 years ago in the academy. How can he at that age have fifty years worth of qi, there aren't many students in the academy but the few available are very strong which will make survival almost impossible, or else someone will have to stand at the pinnacle of them all unrivaled. But four right now has great potentials of becoming the pinnacle, i might have to discuss this with the vice principal"

°°°°¬

Lieutenant Lianxi walked with suspicion as it felt like he was being tailed. He intentionally walked to an area with very few students, "come out..."

"I don't know if you're dumb or just overconfident" Jon revealed himself by undoing his invisibility magic. "Though I still find it quite amusing that you managed to detect me even when I'm literally invisible"

"invisibility does not erase your presence"

"indeed, northerners are strong."

"who are you?"

"you don't need to know" Jon stretched out his hand, ice cones appeared everywhere around his stretched out hand. "what you do need to know is that you made a huge mistake by going at my party leader, I'll hit you hard enough for you to almost die but you won't, ICE SHOT!"

✵pakpakpakpakpakpakpak✵

The ice cones dashed at Lianxi who was dodging well but the ice shots kept coming at him and he was running out of stamina...'he isn't a three star mage is he?... How does he have so much control and surplus mana to keep up'

Jon stretched his second hand the number of ice cones in the air doubled by a ten, "don't tell me you thought I was giving it my all"

"dammit..." Lianxi's mood changed, "why are you letting that weakling lead you, are you subject to the factors of wealth too, that it does not hurt your pride to bow your head to such weak ass" Lianxi released his internal energy into his palms, it immediately took the form of a lightening bolt and whirled around his palm. Qi also had a similar manifestation to aura but had to still be generated from the inside.

"you don't know anything... ICE SHOT X3" the number of ice cones in the air tripled and was emitting ice cold smokes. "FIRE!"

The ice cones attacked Lianxi who tried to reduce the damage by striking it with his lightning qi but the numbers and firepower was too much, Jon kept producing more and more ice cones with amazing mana control, he knew when to make the ice cones larger and when to make it smaller.

After a long while Lianxi was breathing heavily. Jon stopped and looked down at him as he sat on the floor with blood running down from his head. "I give you three months, just in three months Lieutenant Red will beat you with his eyes closed"

"*hic*... You take me for a joke huh? You're only able to touch me this much because you are a three star mage, but don't get cocky and say stuff you'll regret later"

"what gibberish, I'm not three star, judging magical power by stars is dumb, very very dumb" Jon walked away from him.

Lianxi sat there in his blood with eyes wide opened as he thought of what monster he just saw 'he's not even a three star mage yet he can do all that... Are all Easterners mage like this, perhaps not all of them are weaklings, I'm suddenly remembered of the one with blonde hair, he's like a monster hiding behind the skin of a human'

He lifted his face to the sky and closed his eyes, "I thought I was important in this academy, my qi accumulation and meditation was like that of a prodigy and I felt so full of myself. It's intriguing yet painful to find out there are people who have more than I do and yet do not boast of it, Master Korral must've been very disappointed"

He breathed slowly and passed out.
