Opening the Mission Window, the first he saw there was that, there were three types of missions, main mission, daily mission, and special missions.
Selecting the main mission with his consciousness, he found two missions in there,
Main mission 1
Search, find and retrieve the 9 parts of 'The Legacy' to form the completed version.
Reward: The complete inheritance of creator Adam Frey.
Additional Reward: The host is too weak to appreciate this reward
Main mission 2
Complete the creator's wish.
Reward: Full control over 'The Legacy'
Additional Reward: The host is too weak to appreciate this reward
Main mission 3
Take Revenge and become the strongest and most powerful person under the heavens.
Reward: Creator's special gift
Additional Rewards: The host is too weak to appreciate this reward
The first main mission was something he expected, especially after that warning before completing the connection with the artifact.
And the reward for that mission was also logical, but what the hell was with that line at the additional reward. It looked like the system was trying to mock him.
As for the second and the third mission, it came as a surprise to him, but that just made things better. It was like getting paid for doing something you had to do.
It came as a surprise to him that the reward was full control over this divine artifact, but like someone who already had a system before, he knew that there must be something more to that.
But for real though, what the hell was with that line at the additional rewards, if he didn't know that this divine artifact was incomplete, he would seriously think that it was mocking him.
Anyway, the important part was that there were additional rewards.
Thinking like that he closed the main mission window and was about to open the daily mission window, but at that time, he heard the sweet voice of Professor Tatsuya Manami,
Tatsuya Manami:" Okay everyone, this was all for today. I hope you have paid attention to the lesson because the next lesson we will have a quick quiz on today's notes.
So you better study your notes.
If no one has any question, then good afternoon and have a nice day."
Delivering her last words, she took her glass of coffee and left the classroom towards her office.
On the other hand, as soon as he heard these words, Eric closed his system in his conscience, packed his backpack, and immediately made towards her office.
Even if he knew he would only hear negative comments from her, he would still go and enjoy the presence of such a goddess.
That was why he ran towards her office just to be able to catch her and accompany her to her office, like this he could also appreciate her walking style.
He was able to catch her midway but didn't immediately go to her side. just like he was thinking earlier he was just walking behind her, appreciating the view.
He didn't know how, but she seemed to have noticed about his arrival and his look from behind her, even though she pretended to not have noticed.
After all, she couldn't accuse one of her new students of looking at her back, could she? But, this fellow was too shameless. He, he wasn't even trying to make it look like he wasn't watching her.
She was having mixed feelings at this moment, on one side she was feeling good as a woman being appreciated like that, but on the other hand that wasn't exactly the appreciation, she wanted.
But while she was disturbed from Eric's shameless look, and was counting the steps towards her office, Eric seemed to not care much, and just continued to enjoy the view.
It was a battle of wills, one didn't want to show she was affected by her students look, while the other just continued to shamelessly do what he liked.
But while she felt of his look as disturbing, she had started to think what if…
Her thoughts ended soon though because she was in front of her office. Waking up from her walking thoughts she opened the door and entered inside.
As she was about to close the door to her office, Eric placed a hand from the other side to try and keep it open, so he could enter, but the push was too strong and he was too weak.
He never thought that she would get so worked up, just from his look from behind. But, at the same time, he also felt humiliated for being that weak.
Recollecting himself he knocked on the door while stating his name,
Eric:" Professor, I am Eric Jade, you told me to meet you after our lesson."
Tatsuya Manami had been a bit too rash earlier closing her door like that, but who could blame her, she felt defiled by his shameless look over her body.
All this time she had been too focused on her degree's and school matters that she was still untouched by a man at 27 years old.
The most she had gone with a man, was a little bit of touching, and she hadn't even kissed someone yet.
She had been always aware of the males looks at her, but no one was as shameless as this guy. They all tried to change their look when she noticed, but this guy just kept looking at her.
So there was nothing she could do if she was a bit flustered by all that.
Hearing the knock and then the introduction, she gave her cheeks two small slaps, and said to herself,
Tatsuya Manami:" Gather yourself Manami, he is just a scoundrel student of yours, you don't have to be flustered by him."
Then walking towards her desk and sitting in her chair behind the desk she said with a calm and serious voice,
Tatsuya Manami:" Yes, come in."
Eric opened the door and entered inside. Her office was just like he remembered, simple but classy. She was truly a genius, you could immediately notice that by the medals on a side of the office.
And those were only the ones she had decided to show. In the third year of the university, someone spread the rumor about her medals, and the ones here were just 1/10 of all her medals.
Just from this, you could understand her humble and genial character.
Seeing all this, Eric was a bit nostalgic, and different memories started playing in his head. But soon the silence and his awake nostalgia was interrupted by her words,
Tatsuya Minami:" Eric Jade, as far as I know from your records, you are an excellent student that works hard. And you grabbed my attention the moment I saw your file.
But what you did today in my lesson was really rude, and unprecedented.
I decided to forgive you this time, but if this happens ever again, then don't mind me for breaking your GPA in my course. Was I clear?"
Even though she wanted to give him a good punishment for his rudeness in the class, and his rudeness walking here, she couldn't.
Otherwise, she would look like she had been too worked up by his look. And what proofs did she have? Her feeling, her hunch?
Things didn't work out based on feelings and hunches, she knew that perfectly. That was why she decided to just let it go.
But while she decided like that, the same couldn't be said for Eric.
Looking towards her in the eye, without even blinking his eyes, Eric said,
Eric:" Sorry teacher, it was a slip of tongue earlier. It won't happen again.
But I can't accept being forgiven so easily, otherwise, I won't learn from my mistake. So how about I treat you with a cup of coffee as an apology."
Minami was stunned, this guy was too shameless and a born scoundrel, he was using such reasoning to invite her to a coffee.
This was too much.
Looking towards him with an angry look, she said with a more authoritative tone,
Tatsuya Minami:" Aren't you mistaking something here Eric?"
But Eric didn't seem bothered at all by her tone, or her words. He just continued with his calm tone,
Eric:" No I am not, Professor Tatsuya. I just proposed to treat you with a coffee as an apology for my rudeness, and while we are at it also ask you some questions about some problems I am facing.
Why, what might I be mistaken, Professor Tatsuya?"
Minami was left speechless, this guy was too good with his words. And the fact that she got flustered thinking that her student invited her to a date, was making the matter worse.
What answer could she give to that question? Should she say that she just misunderstood his words?
Because whenever Eric referred to her, he stressed the word, Professor. He made the distance between them known.
Now she was feeling guilty for her earlier explosion and didn't know what to do. Anyway, she was the grown-up in their midst and she should be the one who knew best.
Regaining her spirits and her clarity, she said with a calm voice,
Tatsuya Minami:" Nothing, nothing. I just think this coffee idea is too far stretched, how about next time we have tea here in my office and you can tell me about the problems you are facing in my lesson."
Hearing this, Eric was happy to have reached his goal and didn't want to push her too far in their first meeting, otherwise, she would start avoiding him later.
With this thought in mind, he said with a satisfied tone,
Eric:" With pleasure Professor Tatsuya!
If there is nothing else, I would like to leave since I have some important tasks to carry out."
Thinking that she had finally dodged a bomb, Minami immediately answered,
Tatsuya Minami:" No there is nothing more, you can leave."
Having his permission to leave granted, Eric opened the door and left the place, with a smug expression.
Leaving the campus, he was walking in the alleys towards his house while opening his system to learn more about it, when…
