Chereads / The Ancient Shield Warrior / Chapter 8 - Academic system

Chapter 8 - Academic system

The girl next to me was trying to communicate. She's pinching my left short sleeve and pulling with minimal force. I was looking at her when I noticed it.

"Yugo... Did you get hurt? Your clothes and style suddenly changed..."

She is smiling, yet her eyes are a little shy. While uttering my name, she moves her gaze from left to right, then back to my eyes.

Yugo: "Ah... Yea... I'm fine, Ummm..."

I then tried to blink my left eye. The system then quickly opens.

I'm taken aback. When I saw her level, my jaw dropped and my eyes got white.

"Is there something wrong?"

With her head cocked to the left, she questioned my expression.

Yugo: "N-No... Nothing wrong... Hehe..."

How can such a gorgeous girl have a higher level... I can't believe my eyes balls, bro.

AND SHE IS RICH TOO...

Yugo: "Ah... No... Nothing wrong, Aria."

I tried to be as chill as possible.

Aria just stares at me after I call her by her nickname. She appears frozen while she listens.

She sobbed and wiped away a tear from her right eye.

Yugo: "A-Aria? You are alright?"

Aria: "Hm→↑Hm→↑..."

Her tears fell as she wiped them away.

Aria: "I never thought Yugo called my name for the first time."

She seemed to be overjoyed.

Eh? Do we already know each other?

System: "Question confirmed. Yes..."

Then why you did not mention it before...

System: "You did not ask it, what else?"

... *Sigh. Alright. I think I get what you want me to do...

Then, who is she? Is she my childhood friend before? Or something else? It's not normal to be just a normal friend and make her cry like this.

System: "Question confirmed. She is..."

As she returned to the front and attempted to listen to the teacher's instructions.

System: "She is your second wife."

...

Wife?

System: "Yes..."

You said a Second... Wife?

System: "There's nothing misspelled."

Teacher: "Oi you! The one in the middle!"

The teacher suddenly makes a much louder sound than usual. He is staring at me. Aria was surprised as well, and she made a squealing voice. Then she shuts her mouth shut with both of her hands.

Taka simply listens to the teacher. He does not react and maintains his cool.

Yugo: "Ah... Ye-Yes!"

It caught me off guard.

Teacher: "*Sigh. New student. Always make new trouble. You better listened this time. I won't repeat it again if you not listening. You hear me?"

Yugo: "Yes!"

Then he turned back and looked at the screen behind him.

Huft... Glad I'm not getting punished...

Meanwhile, someone with an elf ear is shifting its ear twice to my right behind the table.

*Twitch. *Twitch.

It's Myra's ears. She was looking at me with her right hand on the table and her palms on her jaw.

Myra: "Hmmm→↑..."

As she turns to face me. She has most likely overheard my chat.

How can I be having two wives??? Hey, you listening right? How?

System: "Well... Not two... Three..."

...

I don't get it. Did my previous body R*pe them or something?

System: "Well... No, but let's say they all three just fall to the sweet word with a promising smile from your previous body."

...

This is a miracle. Thank you for born me here...

System: "Now you praising me. And you should do that for now."

Yes... My majesty.

Teacher: "Then... This is how the academy system will work."

He indicated the image on the screen.

Teacher: "In here as you probably already know, the Academy will help you gain your level by offering many thinks. The first thing is book knowledge."

Teacher: "Book knowledge is used for your magic skill type. If you want to, you can just learn all of the magic that can be learned under your class, or learn the General Book knowledge."

Teacher: "And there's a special knowledge that does not require you to read it or even can be learned by the other classes. It's called Class Magic."

Teacher: "The Class Magic can be varied and undefinable. Usually, it will appear whenever you level up at a certain level, or by an accident."

Teacher: "However, the maximum number of magic you can learn is only 10. Even though your level is already high above, it will never change."

10? I see... Although it is only the first day of the academy, the teacher is quite informative.

Teacher: "So you will need to remember it by yourself. Which magic should I learn, which magic should I switch."

Teacher: "You could switch the magic you have learned to another magic you currently used. The magic you learned will not be burned but remain under the system."

Teacher: "Now let's talk about the other Academy system. The second point is about your Hp, Mana, Strength, and Defense."

Ah... That status... Wait, who is my teacher again? I think I haven't known who is he yet...

Teacher: "You could already understand what I'm talking about."

Teacher: "So I did not need to explain it further, I would just say that your status will progressively increase after you level up."

Teacher: "The level-up system can be triggered by your experience level. And your experience level will be higher and get higher after you reach a higher and higher level and so on."

Experience level?

I then attempted to blink my left eye. The system emerged out of nowhere.

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

Level: 1

HP: =====

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

Hmmm... Where is the experience level?

System: "Question confirmed. It can be seen by clicking the Level name on it. It's a privilege system that only the user can see."

Ah...

Then I selected the Level. Suddenly, another system menu appears that I had not seen before.

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

System

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

Level: 1

Experience: 1/100

<< Back

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

Ah, this one... I see...

Then I closed my system.

Teacher: "After leveling up, you could invest the point you learned depending on how high your level is. The higher level you've learned, the higher point you need to invest."

Teacher: "Just a reminder, you can't undo the investment. Well technically you can but it will cost you a lot of money just for doing that. It's called a reset system."

Reset system?

System: "Question confirmed. It's basically like the teacher said..."

How do I do it?

System: "You need to buy the item from the shop. The price is really high so you may need to be careful."

Ah... So it's an item. I see...

Teacher: "I will suggest you use this reset system after you already reached a high level later. It would be more useful than doing it under level right now."

Teacher: "And about the Hp, Mana, Strength, and Defense status you had, it has a maximum number of investments on the strength, and it depends on what type your class is."

Hmmm... About the class... How class is the word? Can we choose it like when we level up?

System: "Question confirmed. No... The class is a type of thing you can't make any option or choice. It was randomly generated when you get born."

Aahh... Who is my family?

System: "I've decided to re-construct your life structure from this word. So everyone will never think you had a family or your family thinking they had a son."

Hmmm... It sounds kind of evilest but yea...

Teacher: "But Hp and Mana can be invested in an undefined number. But usually, many people will be investing it on Mana, since the higher level you had, the higher MT cost you will have."

Teacher: "And let's talk about the next topic quickly."

He looked at his phone for a moment. He checked the time.

Teacher: "It's about the times too. So the third thing about the Academy system is the practice."

Teacher: "This is where the most important and impressive thing is about this Academy."

Teacher: "The Academy over two types of practices. The first one is called self practices. Like its name, you would practice by yourself."

Teacher: "You can visit the self-practice room on the underground floor. There's a person you will see there and they will quickly advise everything about it once you get there."

Wait... Does this building have an underground floor? That's cool... But obviously, I won't come here at night, ever...

Teacher: "It's a public self-practice. So you can practice it with your friend if you want."

Teacher: "The second practice is called practices event. It was an event that was created by the student president."

Teacher: "It's an agreement between the president and the principal, and obviously by the other teacher."

Teacher: "You will be fighting under your team in a tournament, and the winner can get a lot of experience since you will fight not only one or two people, but four."
