After arriving at his dorm, Leon is surprisingly silent the entire journey. The reason for this is the shock that he had received from seeing beings from different races. There are a couple of humanoid ones, but there are also those that have extremely different built.
There is one that looks like a jelly that has one giant eye inside its body. He knows that only intelligent beings are accepted in the academy, as Elcio explained it to him along the way, but he is still doubtful that the giant blob has any intelligence at all.
Entering his designated room, he is immediately greeted by a hulking red man with three eyes; his nose is on his forehead.
His eye twitches, but he takes a deep breath and calms himself down. He wants to know more about this world; he has been too focused on the Realm of the Thousand Worlds that he has forgotten that this world that he is in is much more advanced.
The big red man starts speaking; he does not know the language that he is currently using, but surprisingly, he can understand what he is saying.
"Oh, you are back. You humans are truly strange creatures. Most of you are born as weaklings with extremely low potential, but there are also many of you that grow into powerhouses capable of destroying worlds."
'It seems that I need to read about the races that are present inside the academy in order to avoid any problems caused by some sort of misunderstanding. He thought, realising that their race was actually quite well known in their galaxy.
Seeing that there are actually four beds, he is quite surprised. The room is big enough to be called a house, but it seems that the academy is using this opportunity to build some sort of connection between their students.
Putting four strangers inside one room, making them live together, and using advanced intelligence to pair up each one in order to decrease the possibility of any problem arising.
"Where is my bed?" He knows that this question will come as strange to his roommate, but he still asked it.
The big red man actually does not care about this and only points at his bed with a bored expression. Not caring about him anymore, he walks to his bed and summons a type of dummy that resembles the same form as him.
Leon is quite surprised by this; he can see that the dummy exhibits the same strength as the big red man. Also, its movement is similar; the only difference is that the dummy is actually more proficient in fighting.
His eyes are shining as he finds the perfect practice partner for him to gain control over his body and enhance his own combat awareness.
The door opens, and a fat person walks in. He has a lizard tail but a tusk that glows in green light. Other than these features, he has the same appearance as that of a human being.
"Cleo! You finally returned! Oh, how I had missed you; there was no drinking body that accompanied me in the Red Moon!" Seeing Leon, the fat guy quickly shouted before running towards him.
'So this is a friend of my predecessor; I wonder what type of creature he is? ' He smiles and returns the hug of the fat person; his expression changes after sensing the power within the body of the one he is hugging.
'How strong! ' He instinctively knows that he is actually no match against this person; this made him apprehensive towards the academy.
[Estimated gene enhancement: 67 normal genes and 48 advanced genes.]
'You are now capable of estimating the strength of different individuals!? ' He is shocked after hearing the notification from the system.
[Only those that have physical interaction with the host over a period of time.]
He is disappointed upon hearing this; he had actually expected a much better answer, but it is better than nothing.
"Where is the last person? Is he out on a mission?" After asking this question, the two looked at him with a strange expression.
"Cleo, are you alright? It is common knowledge that an Aphraxian spends their early years in a peaceful location," the lizard-tailed guy says with a confused expression.
"Sorry, there was an accident that happened to me in the Realm of the Thousand Worlds; my memories are not that complete." The two had a look of realisation.
They immediately believed his words: anything can happen in the Realm of the Thousand Worlds; after all, the world's laws are ever-changing but at the same time absolute.
"That is unfortunate," says the lizard-tailed guy. He pats his shoulder with an expression filled with pity; it seems that he and Cleo are actually quite close.
"So tell me, when will class start?" He is actually a bit expectant for this, not because he likes school but because of the legends regarding the academy and its teachers.
"It will be in two days; the teacher stated that we must reach the state of novice genetic warriors, so tell me, have you broken through your body tempering technique?" he asked with a worried expression. The big red man is also looking in their direction with worry.
"Yes, I have." His answer quickly made the two heave a sigh of relief. It is because each group has their own designated teacher; unfortunately, they are unable to advance in their lessons because Cleo has not broken through yet.
"That is great! With your advancement, teacher will definitely proceed with the next lesson. I cannot wait to obtain a new set of combat skills; we need to take revenge for what XZ14 Room did to us!" The lizard-tailed guy roars.
BAM! The triclop punches the dummy, making it retreat. It seems that what the lizard-tailed guy had said sparked something in his heart.
"Oh, you have returned. Have you finally broken through your body-tempering art?" Suddenly, another individual enters the room; his appearance shocked Leon greatly.
