After my meeting with the director, I knew my situation would change, now I have real support. Even though Headmistress or Master Grimalkin has now said that she will not announce our relationship in a public way as it is not her style, the teachers and some nobles will be informed that I am now Headmistress Grimalkin's student and so will the rumors started showing up for the rest of the week, it didn't even take half a month for most people to find out that I'm the principal's student now.
Several people did not believe these rumors that were circulating, among my friends Erick was the first to doubt these rumors and came to me to discover the truth, but even after I confirmed that this gossip was true, Erick had a hard time believing that I was the principal's student, for a long time he thought I was teasing him in a long and complicated prank, as if I had time to waste on a useless project like this.
My friends and acquaintances had different reactions like this, but I didn't feel that one of them was jealous or jealous of my situation, even though the principal is a powerful warrior and has a lot of influence in the realm, not one of them believed that becoming the student director didn't have a lot of downsides, and they were right.
Obviously the first person to discover that I was the principal's student was Hilda when I told her the same day, I met the principal and Balder. She was very happy about it and made me promise that I would introduce her to my master Grimalkin, to my surprise Hilda was a fan of the master, I was surprised by that, but after thinking a little it makes a lot of sense.
Master Grimalkin may hold the position of director at the institute, but she is a great adventurer who has led several epic hunts against high-level magical beasts, even once her group survived an encounter with a level five magical beast that was breaking through to level 6. According to the story the entire natural landscape of the aria was completely destroyed by the magical beast and more than a hundred adventurers died that day, but the GM's team didn't lose a single member, I ended up hearing several stories about them. Grimalkin's Deeds Bloody Huntress Hilda gets very excited when she tells me about her heroine.
But the main reason Hilda is Master's Fan is not just because of the epic and exciting stories that must have been embellished for the audience, Master is a bit of a polemic figure because of her controversial position or her actions on certain attitudes of some nobles, she is not an advocate of equality or the weak, but she is extremely critical against the nobles who are incompetent or weak and the unfortunates who are judged to have these two characteristics, she does not forgive anyone.
Many people have values similar to the master, but most of them are not so direct about their opinions or bold with their statements, the master has had to kill many people in duels because she insulted another nobleman in his face and in a public place. She is famous for having stained the king's throne room with the blood of a warrior who was two stages above her at the time, she insulted one of the nobles for being corrupt and making stupid excuses in front of the king when she had just been assigned the post of director at the institute, at the end of the event the corrupt nobleman was humiliated after his champion was killed by the mistress and she chilled her opponent's severed head at the feet of the corrupt noble.
But it didn't take even two months for the corrupt nobleman to disappear when he was traveling, when that happened there were several rumors that the master was the cause of this because the nobleman tried to get revenge on her several times after being humiliated in front of the king and the nobles. In reality there are several stories of Master's enemies disappearing or having accidents, but as no one can blame the deaths and disappearances on her, but since no and not even a proof, Master still developed a reputation for being a vengeful figure.
I just hope Hilda doesn't try to imitate the mistress; I don't want to see the Menfis family be in the same bad situation as the Forceti family. Many people can admire the master and become her ally, but her family has suffered a lot in recent decades because of the master, her family may still be an average family just a little short of being classified as an important noble family in the city of kingdom, and one of the reasons for that is the master.
Many people who oppose the master cause problems for her family, but as most of their tactics are not directly harming the Forceti family business, not much they can do about it, but it's enough to expand that family's master strengthens and expands to the high or elite rank of the capital's noble families.
The rest of my friends weren't as excited about my teacher as Hilda, but what surprised me the most was the attitude of my friends and that not one of them thought it was strange that I had become Principal Grimalkin's student. When I asked this question to them, the only answers I got where basically Principal Grimalkin does what she wants and she already showed a lot of interest in me during the last test when she took all my equipment out in front of the students before I did. enter the maze.
For them it is normal for her to believe that I was the target of a joke that could be a kind of audition by the director and luckily or unfortunately I passed her audition. and so, on a whim of the principal I became her student and so she didn't even bother to make a statement about it and went to sort out the test consequences. The master really knows how to use her fame and image to manipulate people's perception of her actions, I had my doubts, but now I believe that even though I yell in my hall in the cafeteria the real reason I became the student of Headmistress, they would still think it's just a form of punishment I'm suffering or a retest from the Headmistress.
But taking away people's reactions to my new reality, the only other change I had in my routine was the private lessons with Balder. He didn't even ask me what the limits of my eyes were, he just started teaching me everything a warrior with sensory abilities has to know and their limits and the blind spots they have in their perception, I was surprised when I found that different people can have different blind spots.
I have found that people with sensory abilities have the same abilities and weaknesses only at different levels and training can improve their abilities, but there are many times of track warriors and many of them have more than one way to use their special sensory abilities.
During the class I realized that I made several mistakes, the main one is that my eyes allow me to perceive the mana and elemental energy in the environment much faster than a tracker normally can, the trackers have to use their aura or mana to release a pulse that it is absorbed after it interacts with the environment and then the tracker's brain interprets the information obtained by the pulse.
There are many ways that a pulse can be released, air is usually the first way a tracker uses the pulse, but it is not the most efficient because the tracker tends to absorb a lot of information from every environment, without great skill and experience. a tracker can have a lot of trouble processing all the information he gets from his aura or mana. Most trackers tend to sweat their wrist through the floor or some structure, and it's much easier for a tracker to release their energy on the ground focused in one direction to find their targets.
But once a tracker improves their skills, they tend to master the ability to use their pulse through the air and the more skillful they become, the faster and more efficient their ability to process information becomes and thus their sensory ability becomes faster. But as my sensory abilities work in a different way I can see at the same speed as a very experienced tracker capable of releasing and interpreting their energy pulses.
It should take me a lot longer to track my fangs, the faster I seem like I'm tracking something, the more different I become to the others I ask for. The second big mistake was one I had noticed when I joined the Menfis family group for the first time, I tracked the magical beasts that time over such a great distance to the point of becoming extremely suspicious.
A tracker has its ability to track a very small distance compared to me, this reduced distance is caused because it depends on its energy to determine the pulse size and if it forces it to absorb a large amount of information it will not be able to process whatever he absorbs, and he might even get his mind and core hurt because of it.
Even after two hours of class I still had a lot to learn about trackers, mainly because Balder has given many examples of situations he's been through for me to be able to better pretend my skills as a tracker.
