Lucas' POV

[ Name; Lucas Grimstone. Age; 15 .... Sex; Male.... Height; 1.9 meters ....Citizenship; Marion Country, Oslon City,.... Parents ;Paul Grimstone and Selena Grimstone..( Deceased).....

I glanced at the new affinity and skill I had obtained from Carl with a satisfied nod.

It was now time for me to assimilate my lightning maestro skill. I was not ignorant. With the wilderness survival class trip ahead, there was a possibility that I would be targeted by some of the students.

I was used to the diabolic nature of the human heart. Also, from the looks directed at me during the wilderness survival class, I knew that not everyone was okay with the fact that I had an SSS rank talent... Plus, the instructor, in his attempt to commend me with his viperish mouth, had fanned more flames into the fire of hatred some people in the classroom harbored for me

In the academy, they may not have had the chance to harm me, however, things would be different outside the academy. My reputation as the disciple of the Sword Blade could do only little to repel others from having malicious thoughts about me in the diabolic beast zone.

In order to be on the safer side, I needed to have what it took to protect myself, even if multiple students from my class were to gang on me.

I inspected my surroundings. This was the same training hall I had used for the assimilation of my pyromancer's slug skill the last time.

Quickly, I proceeded to telepathically select the lightning maestro skill from the inbox of my WHA website account.

A holographic backdrop appeared before me, with a silhouette demonstrating motions on how to assimilate the lightning maestro skill. 

I had to perform a set of martial arts movements, in order to cause the lightning affinity to resonate with my mind, so that I could gain control over the lightning in my body, thereby controlling it at will. This was a daunting task, as there were various trials and errors during my attempts.

At this point, I realized how much of a cheat ability my permanent mirroring affinity was. Unlike mechanically assimilating a skill, with my permanent mirroring affinity I could directly inherit the skills of a person without having to assimilate it using my own efforts.

''Just how did I obtain such an enigmatic affinity?'' .. I brushed this train of thought away, knowing it was not necessary to fret about such useless stuff.

I panted heavily, sprawled on the tiled floor of the empty training hall with sweat tricking down my face.

However, with a grin plastered on my face. My hard work had paid off. I had finally assimilated the lightning maestro skill after 12 solid hours of frustration. Various areas of the training hall had small indentations and dark markings, an indication of my rigorous training.

Lightning affinity.... Associated skill; Lightning maestro (Skill that can only be used by lightning affinity awakeners. The individual is able to control and launch lightning at will. However, range of lightning onslaught , attack power and control over lightning depends on hunter's level)

Skin hardening affinity...Associated skill; Monumental skin ( Click here for details of skill) ]

I nodded after reading the details of the lightning maestro skill ''So it operates in a similar manner to the flame maestro skill''

I entered the bathing suite of the training hall, took a refreshing shower, then proceeded to change from the track suit into my windbreaker.

I needed to get some rest. I was certain that I would not be late for the next class. This was because the next class was scheduled for 5 pm.. It was already Wednesday, and the time was 4;44 am. If I hurried to my apartment, grabbed a bite for my growling stomach and got some sleep, I would wake up in time for the next class on time.

''So for this algorithm...'' The advanced mathematics instructor pointed a remote like device towards the holographic display adjacent to her. Quite a number of students were taking the class seriously. However, soft giggles would ring out from time to time, causing a frown to appear on her pretty face.

She had ignored this disturbance occurring at the back side of the lecture hall for a while, until now. Her patience had reached it's limit. 

The serious look on her pretty face had now been replaced with a frown.

''What's happening back there?'' She asked annoyingly, pointing towards a male student at the backside of the lecture hall who's hand was covering his mouth and was currently looking in a particular direction.

The male student could not contain his laughter anymore so much that he ignored the serious glare of the instructor, throwing a fit of laughter.

The easy going female instructor ignored the frivolous student, then proceeded to the back side of the lecture hall.

A student had slept so much that his head was almost steering off the platinum transparent glass table.

Controlling herself from fuming and lashing out at the unserious individual, she gestured him awake with a slight tag on his ear.

The student, black hair, black eyes, smooth and not too long wavy hair with a messy outline, lazily glanced at her...

''What time is it?''. This was the first thing that proceeded out of his mouth.

''You dare misbehave in class on my first day in school?... I was just transferred here today from Dulia country due to an exchange teaching event, only to have you misbehave in my class isn't it.. Well, how about this, if you are so smart, solve the equation up there'' The instructor in her fit of anger failed to recognize who Lucas was, else, her behavior may have been different...

She had actually read about the first SSS grade talent holder of the United Federation, however, she was so angry that she failed to recognize him.

''Oh, sorry instructor... Well, that's not too hard... Please can anyone lend me a touch pen?'' Lucas yawned lazily, then stood up, heading towards the podium of the lecture hall.
