Mo Li looked like the Mo Li that she knew in the past, but his attitude was different.

  Seeing his hatred-filled eyes, Anna couldn't help but wonder why he was so angry at her.

  She couldn't remember meeting this man in the past.

  So why does he hate her so much?

  "What?" Mo Li jumped down the window and approached her. "You wanna take it to the arena?"

  "…" Arena is a place where you could fight anyone to your heart's contents. It was said that the concept of Arena was created to let Lycans fight against the person who they hate and move on from it. To be able to access the arena, one needed to send an official challenge to someone.

  While you have an option to accept or decline a challenge, declining one isn't that common because Lycans are prideful creatures.

  The Goddess made them that way.

  "Stop glaring and tell me if you wanna fight this out."

  Anna sighed. "Too stupid," she mumbled before turning her back on him.

  "What'd you say?"

  Anna continued walking. This man was too weird. She had a bad feeling about him.

  She continued walking and feel someone following her, but decided to ignore it.

  Right now, showing this body's ability wouldn't do her any good.

  When she arrived at the building where she was staying, the presence following her also disappeared.

  'Weird,' she thought.

  Not long after, the healer that the King assigned to check on her arrived and used some of his holy power to diagnose her body.

  And just like the previous healer, he, too, said that there is nothing wrong with her body. And just like the headmistress, he told her she should start attending classes.

  A few days after that, she finally joined classes.

  In this academy, the training would start when a Lycan reached sixteen. That would be the time that they start showing their abilities and let the kingdom know of it.

  Of course, this didn't include Anna because of her father's insistence.

  "Is this seat taken?"

  Anna looked at the woman wearing an all-black training uniform. And by uniform, she meant a black tank top and black tactical pants. Every one of them was given this uniform when they start joining classes.

  "No," Anna said and turned her attention to her new classmates that were training using some stick. Anna had undergone the same training when she was eleven with her father. The only difference was the fact that these people were sparring against each other while Anna… had to fight a tiger using that stick.

  Anna was lucky, she came out alive.

  At that time, Anna was sure that her father would the tiger eat her. So it was her or the tiger. And she chose… her own self.

  Though she wasn't able to kill the tiger that was more than twice her size, she was able to survive with her stick.

  "I'm Devon," the woman said. "You're Anna, right?"

  Again, she nodded.

  "I didn't see you spar with anyone," Devon said. Now that she said this, Anna recalled that this woman was her classmate.

  "No one want's to spar with me," Anna shrugged. Since she started in the middle of the school year, everyone already has their own partners. Moreover, the ones who didn't have one refuse to even acknowledge her presence.

  Even the professor who was supposed to be fair didn't say anything about this. After he introduced her to the class earlier, he just ignored her and acted like she didn't exist.

  "Oh?"

  Again, she shrugged. Right now, they were in the area just outside another building. There were plenty of trees surrounding the place. So, instead of looking for a partner, Anna just decided to sit under one of the trees and watch them.

  "Hey…. The professor is calling us. I guess warm up's done." Someone said.

  Hearing this, Anna got up and followed everyone out of the clearing. This time, they walked towards an even bigger clearing with a huge stage.

  "Alright…. You may take your seats…" their professor was a middle-aged man who looked like he was still in his late twenties. However, the system already informed her earlier that he should be nearing his forties.

  Benefits of having Lycan blood.

  Just like the headmistress.

  She claimed that she was already more than a hundred years old, yet she still looked like she was in her forties. Even Anna's father and mother looked younger than their actual ages.

  "Alright, I need a volunteer." The professor said. "I need to teach you how to handle a sword and kill a dark one in one hit."

  Right, dark ones.

  They still existed in this timeline and they are still the enemies, the demons trying to cross to Earth.

  "No one?"

  "Professor! Since we have a new student, why don't you let her see how to handle a dark one!?"

  Someone from the back said.

  Almost immediately, low chuckles and murmurs erupted after the man's words.

  In response, Anna turned toward the speaker.

  It was a blond man with a huge grin on his face.

  "No. She's still new. However, you can be her partner in practicing this new move after I show it to everyone." The professor said without looking at her. "Since no one wanted to volunteer, I will call one of you. Rob from the Blood Stone pack. As the next Alpha's younger brother, you will surely become his chosen Beta. Now, Betas were one of the best fighters in a pack. You need to learn some new things. Come here, I will show you something."

  A man with curly hair that was neatly tucked in a ponytail got up and walked toward the stage without saying a word.

  Then, the professor showed them something… that Anna learned when she was twelve.

  How to decapitate a dark one in one swoop.

  Anna just listened as the professor pointed out some weaknesses and how to use their speed to fight a dark one.

  "Now… it's your turn." The professor turned toward Anna. "Come here… and fight Dominic. Use the method that I taught you and pretend that Dominic is a dark one. Knock him out, if you can…… And Dominic?" The professor smiled at Dominic before he said, "You can fight back."
