Chapter 46: The threat

[Using Upgrade cardx3 please wait]

*Ding*

Goblin Upgraded into Hobgoblin.

Goblin Upgraded into Hobgoblin.

Kobold Upgraded into High kobold.

The three monsters each had a sphere of light surround them. After emerging from it all of them changed drastically. The two goblins both had grown double their size. They were about a head shorter than Ed and their green color was now darker. The Kobold was now larger than standing at about 2 meters; his previous brown was now a shade of silver.

"System if I were to give them weapons, would they always have it when I summon them?" Ed had some things to confirm with the system.

[Yes they would count as being a part of the monster and stay with them even in their card form]

'Great!' Ed crushed some of the sword cards that he never used and gave one to each of the monsters.

"I'll be going to rest for now; I'll also recall you guys. Tomorrow we'll be training for a while so be ready" Ed recalled the three after they nodded confirming their understanding. He then summoned Suika and the two went to sleep.

Ed had formulated his plans for tomorrow but he would first have to pass a day in the academy. There were too many distractions but he had to stay here for a while at least before leaving.

Ed didn't sleep much as it was already late by the time he went to bed. However, he was used to a disturbed sleep schedule so it didn't affect him a lot.

In the morning, Ed woke up and washed his face. He also got Raikou and Suika to wake up and asked them what they wanted to do. Suika wanted to come with him while Raikou preferred to stay and sleep. It was understandable since he had nothing to do in the academy anyway and it would be too boring for him.

"I'll leave you some food over here" Ed got some food out and left it for Raikou since he wouldn't have anything to eat anyway.

Afterward, Ed left and headed to the academy. He met up with Hayato and Emilia on the way and they all started walking to the class. Suika and Emilia played on the road and passed the time walking that way while Ed and Hayato simply watched over them.

In a couple of minutes, they got to their class and entered, they sat in seats close to each other and Ed got the seat next to the window. 'It's like I'm the main character' Ed remembered the usual Cliché of anime and how the MCS always sit next to the window.

After speaking for a while the teacher came and entered the room, immediately he noticed Suika and stared for a while before turning his attention back to the students. He had black hair and looked like lacked sleep as he had black circles under his eyes. He also seemed to be young at around 28 years old.

"Welcome class. I'll be teaching you for this whole year but I don't care if we get along or not. I hope you won't bother me and I won't bother you either. If you have any questions don't ask them since it'll be troublesome" The teacher kept speaking and every time he finished a sentence people's faces turned sour even more. Only Ed found this teacher to be amusing and had a smile on his face.

"By the way my name is Harry. You can call me teacher, professor or anything as I don't care" Harry just told them he wouldn't want them asking any questions but gave them his name and titles in case they wanted to ask him something. This sent people's head into a swirl of confusion.

Harry started the first lesson and was talking about the theory of QI and its origin. This lasted for about an hour before they moved to their next lesson. The next lesson was about the use of QI and how its conversion to magic is done, everyone was confused by what was happening in the class since the teacher never repeated what he said and he kept talking about high-level concepts. Even Ed had a bit of difficulty keeping up with him.

After the second lesson was done, it was lunchtime so they exited the class and headed to the restaurant to eat. They got there in no time and ordered some food. Emilia ordered some sandwiches while Hayato ordered a noodle based dish that seemed like Ramen. Ed was surprised to see such a dish in this world and ordered it as well. He was a fan of instant noodles and got to enjoy real ramen from time to time, his first authentic ramen experience happened during his trip to Japan.

After getting their food, they headed to an empty table and sat there. Ed didn't forget about Suika and got her the same sandwiches that Emilia got. Those seemed to be one of her favorites so she enjoyed eating them. Suika was now eating by extending her body and shaping it like an arm and then eating it. The actions were very cute and attracted a lot of the females attention, they seemed to like cute round things and Suika who could move just added more charm to herself. Ed even caught the beast woman who attacked him staring at her and smiled. When she saw him she became red and turned her head away.

While they were enjoying they suddenly heard an annoying voice calling out to them which made the food instantly taste bad.

"It seems like the group of failures like to hang out together" It was Norris who seemed to be free. Ed thought that if he didn't exist his life in the academy would be much simpler, but as things were progressing the two would clash at one point.

"Leave us alone" It was Emilia would speak this time as she seemed to be annoyed by his constant harassment.

"Oh it seems like leeches now know how to talk back" Norris didn't waste time and insulted her once more.

"It would be great if you could just move on" Hayato spoke to him but Norris just ignored him and switched his attention to Ed.

"As for you, failure of the Avalon kingdom. I don't know how you got stronger in this last period of time but it would do you better to watch yourself" Norris seemed to know about Ed's condition as it was not exactly a secret of Avalon, and threatened him. However, what he said next enraged Ed in a way he didn't expect before.

"It would do you better to watch out for your little pet's life as well" Norris spoke and reached with his hand towards Suika. Ed immediately reacted and caught his hand while shouting.

"I'd like to see you TRY!" Ed's shout made everyone stop in their tracks.

Chapter 47: The training

Ed's anger had caused him to forget the lid he had put on his KI. When he shouted he had let out KI filled with killing intent that everyone in the restaurant had felt. It was so thick an unlike anything they had felt before, they could feel their breath stopping between their lungs and their mouth.

"Let go of me!" Norris seemed like he couldn't bear it any longer and forcefully remove his hand from Ed's clutches. Ed had grabbed him so hard there were still finger bruises on his wrists.

"How dare you?!" Norris seemed enraged and drew his sword.

Ed could see that things would escalate fast and also summoned his Shusui. The moment the blade was taken out of its sheath, people could feel its lust for battle. People stepped back and maintained a safe distance from Ed; he was just too scary for now. Even Emilia and Hayato seemed like they couldn't believe who Ed was at this moment.

Suddenly Norris lunged forward and slashed at Ed, who easily intercepted his attack and pushed him away making him smash against a wall. It seemed like he forgot he had to lay low according to his plans due to his anger from Norris' threat. Some people couldn't believe what had just happened; the beast woman was one of them. She had 'fought' against Ed before and in her eyes, he was just a weakling, yet now he handled someone from A class with ease. Norris' results were enough to make him at the top of the academy so he was considered to be very powerful.

"You bastard! It seems you want to die!" Norris emerged from the smoke and pounced at Ed seemingly wanting to kill him. Ed was prepared and was about to fatally injure him, people like this never learn and would pursue Ed for all of his academy life.

When the two were about to clash once more a figure darted from afar and got in between them. Ed noticed this and stopped his sword while Norris didn't seem to care, or just didn't notice and slashed his sword. The figure caught the sword and pushed Norris back.

"That's enough from the both of you" It was Harry Ed's teacher. Ed knew this man was powerful so he wasn't surprised while many students from E class had some doubts about him. These doubts were almost all cleared away because of this incident.

"Students cannot fight without any authorization. You can engage in duels that are overseen by teachers or just wait for the school tournament to fight to your heart's content" Harry suddenly introduced some new elements of the academy to Ed and Norris, as well as the surrounding students.

"You're lucky you were saved, failed prince" Norris's hate for Ed kept increasing every time they met. Ed's patience towards him was also reaching his limit and he would probably end up causing a war between their countries since he would probably kill him in case he tries to hurt one of his friends again.

Ed continued his meal in silence while Emilia and Hayato did not mention anything while eating. After finishing Ed suggested with a smile that they head back to classes. Seeing his smile made the other three feel relieved and chatted up again with him as if nothing had happened.

The afternoon classes were more theory classes and a physical class. The physical class this time only had some running; however, it was running across the entirety of the academy which made almost everyone drop to their knees.

After the classes were done the group of four headed to get some food once more, thankfully the morning's incident didn't repeat itself and Ed returned to his place with Suika. There he decided to rest for about an hour before heading out to the training room. Ed wanted to train his new monsters so he recalled Suika and got Raikou to overlook the training.

Ed summoned his three monsters who were now equipped with swords and started their training. Ed summoned his three swords and equipped them as well; he put Shusui in his mouth, Ame-No-Murakumo in his left and Muramasa in his right. It was Ed's first time using the Three-sword style.

"All three of you come at once. It's time to train" Ed's monsters had no combat experience since they were never out before. Ed decided it would be best to train them himself since his experience with swords could be said to be the best in this country.

The three monsters followed Ed's orders and attacked him, they all slashed at different places but Ed could easily read their movements without using any skills and blocked all three swords. The monsters were surprised and seemed like their pride suddenly moved them as they exerted more strength.

They kept slashing at Ed and every time it looked sharper and stronger, their evolution played a big role in this as they were smarter than usual monsters and their capability to learn was much higher. Ed was satisfied with their improvement since at one point they almost injured him, although he wasn't using his maximum abilities it was still a praiseworthy achievement for him.

After a while, they were exhausted and couldn't move anymore so Ed treated them to some food he had cooked before which they enjoyed a lot. Especially the Kobold, who seemed to enjoy meat more than the others. After they ate, Ed recalled them and summoned Suika. He got her to train her poison attack from a range while he sparred with Raikou.

Raikou could feel that Ed had gotten stronger once more and especially the threatening feeling he got from his three swords. The two went at it as usual with Ed using ranged magic slashes and Raikou countering with his speed and magic fireballs. This time Ed cornered Raikou by using a tornado that was strengthened with Ame-No-Murakumo and Shusui. Raikou got kind of annoyed of this and activated his lightning mode and the two kept going at it for about two hours.

After they were done, they cleaned up the place and left to sleep along with Suika. His next day would probably be more tiring was what Ed kept feeling as he was trying to sleep.
