Two and half months had passed since the I have found the last and important material needed for my core formation, the Stardust of Remdom, and since then, I have been working on my Inheritance day and night.

  My time would be spent between the Academy and wisdom tower; the broken tower is a treasure trove that had helped me a lot; if it had not for it, my Inheritance would not have been finished up this early, and I would not have been able to do some amazing things I have done in my Inheritance.

  I finished with my Inheritance just yesterday; not only did I finish with it, but I had also checked each and every detail of it three times and found no mistakes.

  I am leveling up tomorrow, but today is an important day, a grim reminder of the price we are paying in this war.

  "…The war is cruel, and it is heartless, but it is we have to fight and win so that our children would live in a world where they won't have to live in fear of the Grimm Monsters as we have been doing since the day we are born,"

  "I dedicate this cemetery to brave Captian Sam Johanson, who sacrificed his life so that thousands could live. May his soul find a place in heaven it deserves," the Teacher said as she finished her speech.

  In front of her, six thousand three hundred and twenty-two graves, with the forefront have a grave of Sam Johanson, to which Teacher had named this cemetery, after.

  This is a number of casualties the Academy had suffered in the war that is being fought on the minor continent. This number had been a small percentage of what we have lost, these five thousand, three hundred twenty-two people within just ten days.

  Since the war had begun, Academy had already lost close to forty thousand people already, and at that very moment, we were losing people.

  Of the sixteen minor continents, eight had been fallen in the hands of Grimm Monsters while we have only been able to wrest five and are fightingly intensely for the remaining three continents; my native silver continent is one of them.

  The fighting had spread into every part of my native Silver continent; it had not remained contained in the Grimm battlefield. My hometown and region, where I had spent my early years, had fallen into the hands of the Grimm Monsters.

  It is a good thing; the people of my town have been able to get away in time and have taken refuge in the central continents like billions from the minor continents have done.

  I walked with a teacher, consoling the parents and relatives of the people who had sacrificed their lives in the war; it is a painful affair that I made a point to attend every time; I need to see the price we are paying in this war, so I could improve enough to help in win it.

  Elina had left the Academy two months ago; she had been summoned by Pyramid. From what little she had told me, she had been admitted to one of the elite five legions and is now training under the old monster.

  Many of my friends and relative have joined the active battle; they have been posted in minor continents, fighting the hidden battles.

  We only spent forty-five minutes in the cemetery before we flew back to the Teacher's office. "Have you made all the preparations?" Teacher asked as she sat on her chair in her office.

  "Yes, I will be making the breakthrough tomorrow," I said. She nodded before a look of worry flashed in her eyes. "How confident are you in your chances?" she asked, "My luck had been excellent, I have got all the resources I need to make the core formation safe as possible and able to bring the chances to 50:50," I replied truthfully

  "I wish you had the better chances," she said with a sigh, "Me too," I said with a small smile. She did not dissuade me from forming a core, as she had done many times before when I had first told her about my intention.

  "Have you informed your parents?" She asked, to which I shook my head. I had talked to them this morning, but I had not informed them about it. If I had survived, I would have informed them of this news myself; if I failed them, it would be the Teacher's job.

  Failing would only result in death or total incapacitation; the chances of dying are much greater. The curse inside me would not let me live if I had failed. It would not let me succeed, I am sure of it. It is sentient and understood that it is the only chance it has to kill me.

  Once I made a breakthrough into the Tyrant stage with the Inheritance core, it would have no chance of killing me ever again.

  "Councilwomen Marla and Councilwomen Finn will go with you," the Teacher stated, surprising me. "Teacher, no, we have only left with four councilmen; with me taking them, the defenses of the academy would reach very critical," I immediately rejected her offer.

  Our councilmembers also had been called to war, leaving us with only four; they are far from the ideal number the Academy would have in case the Grimm Monsters decided to launch a surprise attack; they have destroyed thousands of organizations, in the surprise attacks alone.

  "Academy is not something which could be destroyed in a surprise attack," Teacher said, and her tone was uncompromising. Hearing that tone, I knew she would not listen to any of my arguments; I had to accept her decision whether I wanted to or not.

  "Thank you, Teacher, I will not disappoint you," I said gratefully; her help in my journey is monumental; without her, I would be not have been able to achieve what I had achieved.

  "You can never disappoint me, Micheal…… You are the best student anyone could hope for," She said gently with pride.
