In the middle of the forest, the cries of pig-like monsters were heard as one person was massacring them. Some want some resistance, but none is possible.
[Lightning Flame Slash]
A sword sweep was then followed by lightning and fire exploded into them. Zephyr, who was currently grinding, did not let them go. Suddenly, Zephyr's movements changed, like he was dancing.
[Saint's Sword Dance]
A beautiful sword dance, however, the orcs did not have the chance to admire.
Ahhh!
"Help me! KREEK!!!! "
The screams of hundreds of orcs were very loud as Zephyr previously saw an orc village. At first he just let it be, but suddenly they attacked him, leaving him to retaliate.
[Fireball]
A giant ball of fire appeared in his hand as it hit the orcs, causing a series of explosions. Many orcs perished as they were burned to death. Zephyr didn't stop and cast another spell, [Fire Bolt].
As the fire bolt was only second in speed to lightning, it immediately struck his target. with his super sensitivity, he felt someone was attacking him from behind, causing him to sidestep.
Miss!
An axe missed Zephyr as he could see that the one he was wielding was much bigger than the others. It had a more robust body than the cannon fodder orcs he had killed.
[Orc Champion]

It was filled with rage after seeing its kin slaughtered like a helpless chicken. Even they were the first to attack, as monsters they didn't possess the word conscience as they were following the law of the jungle.
'Survival to the fittest.'
The orc champion immediately rushed to Zephyr and brandished its axe, but Zephyr easily blocked it as his strength had already surpassed the orc champion.
Zephyr twisted his arms as he cut down the axe along with the orc champion.
[Critical!]
[You have dealt 5,871 damage to the target.]
Zephyr almost killed it instantly with just his basic attack, and the crude axe was split in half. Zephyr didn't let the opportunity to pass by as he slashed the neck and killed the orc .
[You have dealt 5,440 damage to the target.]
[The target has died.]
[You has acquired 5 bronze.]
[120 experience has been acquired.]
[Your pet 'Tetsuya's level has risen.]
[Your pet 'Tetsuya's level has risen.]
Tetsuya leveled up twice without doing anything. Tetsuya wanted to jump and fight, but Zephyr didn't allow it, as he wasn't a psychopath to allow a newborn kid to fight.
Tetsuya protested in his head that he wouldn't be hurt by the orcs, but Zephyr was firm. For him, it doesn't matter how strong Tetsu is. He just doesn't want a newborn baby to fight. For him, it was a moronic decision.
Tetsuya had no choice but to cast his buff on Zephyr.
[You have received Kyuubi's Blessing.]
[Your strength and vitality will rise by 10% for 5 minutes.]
[Your defense will increase by 10% and your health will be restored by 10% per second for 5 minutes.]
Suddenly, Zephyr was surrounded by hundreds of very angry orc champions and an orc that was twice as big as them. Zephyr inspected it.
[Orc Chief]

Zephyr wasn't concerned at all even he was surrounded. Suddenly notification appeared as the orcs began to surround him.
[Proportionate to the number of enemies that are within a 150-metre radius, your Offensive Power will increase by a 10% per enemy.]
Zephyr could feel his strength increasing at the moment. Without wasting time, all orcs attack at the same time. Zephyr, on the other hand, wanted to test something.
[Fire Storm]
Suddenly, a rain of raging fire bombarded the orcs, leaving nothing behind. With all the buffs Zephyr received, his damage skyrocketed, killing an orc instantly.
[The target has died.]

As Zephyr exterminated the orcs, suddenly a system announcement appeared in front of him.
[Announcement: The players who had advanced their class has reached 10. The level ranking list and class ranking list has been unlocked.]
[You are the first in the level ranking, will you hide your name?]
"Isn't that a bit late for now?"
Zephyr was confused as to why it was asking him to hide his name when it was constantly announcing it without his permission.
"No need."
Zephyr decided that it would be no use anymore, so he just let his name be seen on the level ranking, but he decided to hide his name in the class ranking as he was certain it would only cause him trouble.
He possessed two legendary classes, so he was certain some trouble would always find him. He then looked at the rankings as he was curious about the other players.

Zephyr was amazed at their classes as they were also able to get into hidden classes like him. He was a bit interested in fighting some of them as he wanted to experience PVP.
Suddenly, a notification appeared in front of all users.
[Announcement: The game has been online for 9 hours in real time. The server will shut down in 30 seconds. Please log out immediately.]
[Announcement: All players progress will be saved so there's nothing to worry. Please log out immediately.]
Zephyr decided to log out and rest. He noticed that he had been playing for 27 hours already, but he did not notice the time.
In Tensura, time is different from the outside world. 1 hour of real time is equivalent to 3 hours in Tensura. As the server is closing by the day, Atlas Corps designed it to allow players to play and enjoy the game longer.
Tensura's server will also freeze when the game is unavailable, and the time will continue when the server is back online.
Satisfied with the little fun he had today, Zephyr pressed the log out button and went back to his boring lifestyle.
Not known to him, the appearance of the two legendary classes would cause chaos on the entire server.
On Tensura's Forum.
"Level 18! Isn't this level too much of an exaggeration? Player Zephyr is already level 18, yet I'm still level 8. "
"Is he making us feel despair for making us feel like idiots and losers?"
"God Zephyr. Carry me! "
"The difference between the 1st and 2nd place is big. Also, legendary class? It already appeared? "
"Damn. Not just 1, but 2. I'm so envious of those two players. "
"I'm sure player Zephyr had one, but it doesn't make sense if he kept his identity hidden. Maybe it's another player. "
The world was in uproar about the legendary classes. They knew the value of legendary class, especially the big companies. If they could purchase it, they wouldn't hesitate to pay, even if the cost is in billions of credits.
Starlight Corporation is one of the biggest companies in the world. They were in the top 13 among the 20 biggest companies in the world. Inside the board meeting office
"Can someone tell me what is going on? Can someone find those legendary players? "
Currently, Tensura has become the trend of billions of people. It means there were billions of markets in Tensura, which was an unknown world with many possibilities. Naturally, big companies won't let the massive profit pass away.
"CEO Ken, I have investigated their origins but, unfortunately, I have obtained no clues at all."
"I'm also finding the whereabouts of Player Zephyr, but I can't obtain his location."
A board member apologetically reported to their CEO. CEO Ken Francisco sighed and replied.
"We must persuade Player Zephyr and the other legendary class players to become our exclusive professional players. We can't afford to let them go. "
"Also contact all the players in the Star Ranking and offer them contracts as I could see they were top players."
CEO Ken Francisco said to his board members that he wanted to make a big hit on Tensura to make his company's value increase in the top 10.
However, it was not just Starlight Corporation. All companies around the world thought the same, as none of them would let the opportunity pass.
All were using their connections to obtain information, and some tried to contact Atlas Corps about it. But Atlas Corps just gave them a reply.
"We apologize. It is our rule to not share any information regarding the players unless the player allows us to."
"As we don't intervene in Tensura, we also don't have the authority to share the player's private information. We hope for your understanding and consideration."
They were firm and didn't let the companies have things their way. Some companies insisted, but Atlas Corps didn't hear their requests at all.

Zephyr was casually sitting on his seat like usual. He occasionally heard his classmates talk about Tensura, but Zephyr was no longer interested. It didn't take long for the homeroom teacher to arrive.
"Okay, settle down, class."
All the students went back to their seats with nervous expressions. They were waiting for the teacher to announce their score during their test last week.
The teacher didn't make them wait for long as he posted the scores on the board.
1. Strelizia:
Language- 96
Mathematics- 93
Biology- 95
Chemistry- 94
Physics- 93
.....
2. Aleya
Language- 94
Mathematics- 92
Biology- 94
Chemistry- 93
Physics- 93
..
Cheers were heard as the students were glad for their grades. All of them breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that they had passed. Zephyr, on the other hand, glanced at his grades with an uninterested manner.
Zephyr
Language- 50
Mathematics- 50
Biology- 50
Chemistry- 50
Physics- 50
..
Unlike the other schools or academies where 75 of 100 is the average passing score, here in this academy is at 40 as the tests and other courses were atleast 10x or more harder than the other schools.
However there's a catch, if one would score below that, even just a single point less of 40, the student would be automatically expelled out of the school which commonly happens due to the extreme difficulties.
Only smart, hard working and genius people lasts long in this school as even one had high amount of money, if they are incompetent or incapable of passing, money would be considered worthless and had no other choice but to be expelled and be removed in the groups of elite.
Zephyr cast occasionally glanced at the window, immersing himself in the sound of birds. He could hear the other students laughing as they were satisfied with their grades.
Some glance at his carefree demeanor but then ignore him after a while. He sighed as he was totally uninterested in his score and waited for the class to pass. It didn't take long for the bell to ring, and he then got up and left to go home.
As soon as he left the campus, Zephyr noticed that someone was following. Arriving in a place with no people Zephyr stopped as he stared coldly at the man in black.
The man is no longer hiding his presence and is conversing with Zephyr.
"Greetings, young master."
Zephyr just looked at him and didn't reply. His attitude was colder than his usual demeanor. Seeing his behavior, the man didn't make him wait as he continued.
"I am told by the masters that young master Zephyr should return home as you didn't belong here and would only waste your talent."
Zephyr gave him a cold glance and waited for him to finish. When the mysterious man noticed Zephyr was listening coldly, cold sweat began to flow from his back.
"The masters also said you should continue your purpose and don't waste time on these unnecessary things."
Hearing him, Zephyr nonchalantly replied.
"Just tell them I won't return for a while to experience the outside world, and don't rush me. There's nothing to worry about as I will eventually return there. "
The man smiled, hearing Zephyr's remark. He then replied one last time before leaving.
"I expect great things from you, Zero's Masterpiece."
