Quickly, Nolan arrived in the class, a little earlier than some of the other students, and it didn't take long for the class to begin.
This time, the teacher was a different lady, possessing long blue hair and a scaly body.
This made Nolan almost guess what type of descendant she was based on her looks, and she gave them a very detailed explanation of natural celestial phenomena in the various realms.
The topic was nothing but captivating, greatly rewarding, and Nolan took quite a number of necessary notes, further improving his understanding of the world.
Not long after, break time came, and this time, the class was a little surprised to see Wiro and his four goons actually didn't disturb Nolan at all.
They even seemed to be somehow ignoring him, and Nolan, since they didn't toy with him, also simply ignored them.
He didn't go out for a break like the others, due to the unnecessary attention, instead focusing on reading some of the books he had obtained from the store the previous days, along with what they were taught just a few hours ago.
The break ended with the students pouring into the class, and ten minutes later, once more, a male teacher walked in, discussing the various traditions and practices of the myriad races.
This subject was more of a leisurely topic that had the majority of the celestial heirs conversing about their beliefs and traditions with the students.
It was a lively class that arrested the attention of every descendant present, and the instructor, who went by the name Sir Koriano, seemed to be quite the blossoming soul, mingling with students with a smile and laugh.
It was an enjoyable class where Nolan had the chance to learn a few things, and one of the most important was that there were actually ten strange constellations in the celestial realm.
Each of these constellations was just like the moon, and each of them was a sign of a particular mythological descendant.
There was a specified cycle to the constellations' appearance, and according to what he was told, the last constellation belonging to the Mesopotamians showed up around just a few weeks ago.
Unfortunately, Nolan had not been able to witness it.
But, another constellation would be appearing just a few days from now, and he anticipated the sight of it.
According to what he heard, the constellation's appearance gives a boost of power to those who own that constellation, making them significantly stronger by simply being out of their homes.
It was something every celestial heir looked after, and Nolan himself was no exception.
Quickly, eight hours passed for the day, and the class came to an end.
All the students rose to leave, and the same could be said for Nolan, who also rose to his feet and moved towards the exit, mingling among the students and quickly disappearing.
Once more, he began feeling strange gazes surrounding him as he walked, but the next instant that he got to the main streets, Nolan felt all the gazes on him completely disappear.
[I guess they have at least learned their lessons...] The system mused to Nolan, who shrugged helplessly and moved towards the direction of his dorm room.
It didn't take that long for him to arrive before the Greek Descent building, but there was strangely a sort of commotion happening at the front gate of the academy, and Nolan's eyebrows furrowed.
He didn't enter the gate; instead, he made a U-turn and waited on a corner.
He didn't know the reason for the commotion, but he also didn't care about it, as it seemed to be something that had to do with students in the main Greek Descent building.
The disturbance continued for close to three hours straight, making Nolan have to wait until the sun set before he finally rose up and snuck into his dorm room at the back of the academy.
[You have quite some EXP. Enough for the next level up, but you haven't use them, remember?]
The system reminded him just when Nolan was thinking of beginning the books he possessed.
"That reminds me..."
Truly, he had been given miscellaneous quests yesterday on his way to the academy store when he dealt punches to idiots who tried to bully him on his way.
If he could remember correctly, he had amassed 1,200 EXP! Definitely, that was enough for some level up...
"System Interface," Nolan called out while placing the book he was about to read onto the wooden table.
[System Interface]

[Does Host wish to level up?]
"Yes..." Nolan replied.
[Congratulations, Host has leveled up to level 8!]
[+10 Attribute Points have been obtained.]
The system notification rang out, and once more, the notification panel changed.

[Attribute points: 10]
[How does Host wish to use attribute points?] The system asked Nolan, whose eyes flashed.
"Add 5 attribute points to Agility and 5 attribute points to Perception..."
In the next instant, the strange liquid began flowing through Nolan once more, with some of it passing through the back of his neck and entering his brain, making Nolan take a sharp inhale, and shut his eyes closed.
It was like his brain was thrown into a fridge of ice blocks, and his teeth clenched together, but the pain soon faded away just as quickly as it came.
[Congratulations, Points have been successfully added.]
[Attributes]
[Strength: 30(+5)]
[Agility: 25]

[Attribute points: 0]
"Good." Nolan called out.
"Now I just need to level up twice more, and I'll be on my path to completing the quest."
"I wonder what the God King Trial entails and what is meant by obtaining my first crown..." Nolan mused to himself, eagerly anticipating the unknown.
[It will be unlike any trial that has ever existed as you'll be the first person to undergo such a trial.]
[The first step of your journey from A God Slave To A God King!]
The system chimed in a little as Nolan grinned and was about to continue reading the book when suddenly his ears twitched, and he felt the sound of hurried footsteps at his door.
BANG
BANG
BANG
Instead of a knock, it was an loud banging, as Nolan's eyebrows furrowed and he walked towards the door.
According to his memories, there were almost none who ever came to Nolan's door throughout his entire lifetime.
So why now?
Slowly he placed down his book and approached the door, opening it up with a hum, and the person who was there surprised him.
"What the? What are you doing here, Wiro!?"
Yes, it was Wiro, whose life Nolan had spared just yesterday. But Nolan's eyes changed when he felt something was wrong with the young man.
He looked like...
"They're coming, Nolan! They are coming!!!"
"Who are coming?"
"Your death!"
