Chapter 275 - First Lesson of the Semester
“You’re Mike? I heard about you from some people at the Law Faculty!”
“This is yours. Please keep it!”
Mike took it and asked the gray-haired old lady again.
“May I know what this credit card is for?”
The gray-haired old lady smiled and said to Mike, “You’ll know soon enough!”
Mike wanted to ask more questions.
However, the gray-haired old lady had already closed the window.
“Alas, it seems that I have to figure everything out here by myself.”
Mike said leisurely.
Holding the key to the dormitory, Mike and Seigne parted ways.
He walked through a grassy lawn before spotting a red building.
The building looked like a magnified version of a church.
“Looks like this will be my new home.”
Pushing open a white door, the smell of books filled the air.
Mike looked for the number on the key and easily found his room.
It was a single room with good lighting.
Mike sat on the soft bed and recalled everything that had happened today.
From exchanging gold coins to the Romon Restaurant to the Conscience Grocery Store.
“Oh right, didn’t I get that mysterious stone? I still don’t know what that stone is meant to be used for!”
As he spoke, Mike also took the stone out from his backpack.
Mike held the stone tightly in his hand, as it emitted a different light.
Mike stared at the stone in his hand, his heart filled with doubts.
“This stone is really strange! I can’t find out what the secret is!”
Just as Mike was about to throw the stone to the side, a golden light suddenly began to spread on the stone.
The intense light lit Mike’s room up.
Just then, the system notification also sent a message to Mike.
[ System notification: The Sky-Mending Magic Stone does not belong to the Miracle World. It is a true god stone from outer space. If you continuously inject life force into it, you might be able to open a mysterious realm! ]
As Mike read the system notification before him, his heart started to feel curious about this stone again.
“So this is something from outer space? It’s really magical!”
As he said this, Mike held the sacred stone tightly in his hand.
Then, he muttered to himself again.
“Let me see the secrets of this guy!”
As he spoke, Mike poured his life force into the Sky-Mending Magic Stone.
Soon, the golden light from the stone lit up the entire room again.
Then, mysterious incantations appeared around the stone.
Mike studied the mysterious words on the Sky-Mending Magic Stone.
Although it was strange, it felt strangely familiar.
It was a strange feeling.
It was as if he had just met a friend on the street that he had not seen in a long time.
Both of you knew each other, but you could not recall each other’s names.
While Mike was still feeling confused and hesitating, the Sky-Mending Magic Stone burst out with a fierce light again.
This time, the light seemed to have a huge impact.
The impact force completely knocked Mike away.
After that, Mike’s consciousness began to blur again.
“This… What is… this thing…”
Even though Mike’s eyes gradually started to close, his mouth continued to mutter about the Sky-Mending Magic Stone.
As he slept, the voice that made him feel that extremely familiar feeling appeared before Mike again.
“Mike! Wake up! You don’t belong here! Wake up!”
“Who are you? Why are you telling me this? Where am I from exactly?”
In Mike’s consciousness, he kept asking these questions.
However, no matter what he said, he could no longer hear the voice from before.
Suddenly, Mike opened his eyes as he was startled awake from his dream.
“Where am I?”
Mike blurted out.
He looked at his surroundings and looked at the Sky-Matching Magic Stone in his hand.
He finally remembered everything.
“So, everything just now was only a dream!”
As he said this, Mike stood up and walked out of the door.
As a newcomer to the Adventurer’s Academy, he was conscious that he was not particularly familiar with everything here.
After unpacking his excess luggage, Mike decided to take a stroll around the academy.
Walking out of the dormitory building, Mike walked along the streets of the Adventurer’s Academy out of boredom.
He looked at the various high-rise buildings, and all the other kinds of buildings, and once again sighed in his heart.
“This Adventurer’s Academy must be very rich. Tall buildings can be seen everywhere.”
As he walked, Mike walked to the arena that he had seen when the tester led the way.
At this moment, the arena was holding a battle between the Law Faculty and the Close Combat Faculty.
The students surrounding the arena cheered excitedly.
“Reid will definitely win! Quickly smash that kid into pieces! He actually dared to provoke our Law Faculty! He’s really brainless!”
“Blue will definitely win! Quickly break that kid’s limbs! He actually dared to slander our Close Combat Faculty! Beat him up!”
Mike saw that the youth holding the staff was gathering strength to cast a spell while the youth holding the double-edged sword took advantage of this gap to quickly pounce towards him.
Just as the double-edged sword was about to cut the throat of the youth holding the staff, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, directly hanging on the double-edged sword youth’s body.
Seeing that the bolt of lightning was about to fall, at the critical moment.
The double-edged sword youth’s feet pushed back, and he quickly dodged.
The lightning missed, striking the spot where the double-edged sword youth had been.
The youth holding the staff had a flash of yellow light in his eyes.
His gaze was directed in the direction of the double-edged sword youth.
The yellow light suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly, the double-edged sword youth clutched his chest and collapsed on the ground.
“Blue, you’ve already lost. Surrender!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the double-edged sword youth suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke.
An afterimage flashed past. It turned out that the double-edged sword youth’s real body had appeared behind the staff youth.
“You’re the one who has lost, Reid. Even if you train for another 100 years, your Law Faculty will still not be a match for our Close Combat Faculty! Do you understand?”
Mike looked at the two people in front of him and quickly gained some insight into the attack style of the double-edged sword youth.
The double-edged sword youth had deliberately misled the magic staff youth into thinking he had a flaw.
He had let the magic staff youth think that he had seized the opportunity.
Once the magic staff youth’s winning skill had failed, he would become the lamb waiting to be slaughtered by the double-edged sword youth.
Actually, this was also the weakness of mages.
The average mage needed a certain amount of time to accumulate power to cast a skill.
The length of time would be completely determined by an individual’s talent.
