Yuri was currently in her magical arts class. And like any other bored student, she was trying to sleep. {This "Academy" is good for nothing. All the weapon instructors only know basic combat, and the rest are just overly shiny and for fame points. And their physique? PHA! They couldn't even run for very long. And now magic?! They are telling students that they need to pray to a goddess for them to activate magic! This is dumb!} In her thoughts, she didn't notice that the teacher was looking at her furiously. All the other students realized that in mere seconds but wanted to see the result of the dispute that was about to happen. The teacher threw the piece of chalk directly at Yuri's head. "OW! What WAS THAT FOR?" Yuri yelled. "This is for sleeping in my lesson. We're on a very crucial subject, and if you don't pay attention, you won't be able to use Magic!" With a victory grin on her face, the teacher wanted to continue the lesson. Right as she was about to turn around again, she heard: "Crutial my ass! You tell us that we need to pray to a goddess to activate magic. This is as far from the truth as you can get!" Now the teacher was hurt by her pride. "Miss Strel! Since the first mages, we have needed to pray to a goddess in order to use magic. Another way isn't possible. She was cut off as Yuri let a black flame appear in her hand. "How did you do that? No chant, no prayer, and no magic circle? HOW?" The teacher was dumbfounded and only heard Yuri sigh. {Dumb Academy. The teachers don't know anything about magic, fighting, or even beasts; they are sloppy and unhealthy. The only thing this Academy can give me is time for the disintegration of the Artifact plate inside me.}
Over the past month, Yuri has dominated the Academy. At first, she was looked down upon. Even from the instructors. But once she showed her proficiency, nobody looked at her with those eyes again, since it's allowed for students to hurt each other. This was also the time that she found out how the Academy was doing things. 1 month would be spent training on weapons and your physique, the next training mana and your intelligence, and again. She was actually disappointed in this academy. Every day, they covered a new weapon. They trained in this order: Sword, Sword and shield, Double sword, Spear, mace, pike, Morgenstern, Longsword, Scythe, double-bladed scythe, 2 Scythes, dagger, 2 daggers, Bow and arrow, crossbow, and then from the beginning. In all these training sessions, Yuri was able to defeat all of the instructors with ease. With every spar, the fear of the instructors and students of the academy rose. The only fun part of the Academy was the Volunteer Monster hunt. Every day, Students and one instructor go out in the woods to hunt nearby monsters. The Students can keep the cores from the monsters they killed to sell them or do other things with them. Yuri was allowed to go out alone, and this day was the last day she would do that. This is the day she will implement her plan to be free again. She collected many beast cores over the last month, and in all bestiary books, it is stated that beasts need a certain number of cores to evolve. She wants to go to the Kings and ask for a secluded spot in order to evolve. When she is in that secluded spot, she will order her nanobots to slowly disassemble the artifact and crush it on a molecular level to implement it into her Body. {Let's do it!}
Human King POV ---
The King of the Humans was in a meeting with the other Kings. It was a disaster. A few days ago, a strange portal appeared, and a man walked out of it, demanding that in a span of one month, the strongest person be given to him for a tournament. If the person of our world wins, everyone will be overwhelmed with riches, as the person said. In conclusion, we decided to send the Fox Girl. She defeated every instructor and has excellent control over mana; she was the first choice. It just made him a little sad to say goodbye to her after such a short amount of time, and it didn't play in his hands. He wanted to train her with drugs to only listen to his orders and make her his own War machine. Knock, knock, Knock. Everyone looked up. "Enter!" The Elven King said The Fox Girl entered. "Masters, I ask for a secluded room so that I can carry out my evolution." She bowed down. This was very good news! After an evolution, you would be numb, and your brain would feel like you were drunk! The perfect opportunity to push her through the portal! The Hunan King looked at his colleagues, and they all nodded. They were all thinking the same thing. "Your proposal was accepted. Leave."
---Yuri POV---
With a sly smile on her face, she turned and walked out of the room. The kings didn't bother to reserve her a room, so she needs to find one first. She looked at the Map in the corner of her left eye, which she created during the first month of her stay. {This feels like a Video game.}
30 minutes later, she stood in front of a door in an empty hallway. This part of the Academy was almost never used. She opened the door, saw the bed, and laid down. Nothing else was important. Then she commanded the nanobots to go under her skin and disassemble the Artifact. As soon as she gave that order, an awful pain shot up her spine. She needed to bite her lips in order to suppress a scream. Then everything went black. For 3 days.
3 Days later
Yuri slowly opened her eyes. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. She shot up and instantly thought of killing one of the kings. No pain. {So the Artifact was really disassembled. Nice! I'm free!"} Then she remembered. In order not to raise suspicion, she needed to report to the kings and act all woozy. She stood up, went to the door, opened it, closed it, and marched straight to the room where the Kings last sat.
30 minutes later, she stood inside this big ass room, and the kings wooed her as she walked over to the crystal ball. They ordered her to reveal her status as soon as she entered the room. But even for this, she had a plan. Now that she was free, she could trick the Kings. She laid her hand on the Crystal ball, and her status appeared. Nothing changed, but as soon as something appeared, she manipulated the light so that the 2 that is at [Stage] becomes a 3, and the effect [woozy] was applied. The kings smiled warmly. Then, out of nowhere, a giant blue portal appeared, and a heavy wind pushed her inside. The last thing she saw were the three kings smiling. 1 with a sad expression, 1 with an evil expression, and 1 with a neutral expression {BAS*ARDS!}
