Kapitel 38: Back to Heaven Fall Academy
Gin effortlessly won his battle against Blood spat, with that, his victory count reached 50 in the arena.
Now, he can leave the arena any time he wants. If he wants, he can also stay and participate in the battles without any constraints.
Gin didn't plan on staying here, he was going to leave after getting his stuff from the room.
Even though he already stored his items in the magic space, he didn't want to arouse other people's suspicion.
What he didn't expect was, the arena gave him a commission of 1000 elemental stones after his last battle.
1000 elemental stones are just 10% of the amount they earned through him. It means the arena has earned more than 10,000 elemental stones using him.
After gathering his stuff from the room, he called Delgo and rewarded 2 elemental stones for his help which Delgo accepted with joy.
Leaving the room's key in Delgo's hand, Gin met senior Juvan to say his goodbye and left the master tower.
After settling everything, Gin made his way towards the White star region. Only from the white star region, he can catch the train to Silver mist region.

Around Nightfall,
"Ahhh! I am finally back!" Gin cried, looking at the gates of Heaven Fall academy. After 5 hours of taxing journey, he finally returned.
As he stepped inside the academy grounds, he got sight of three figures training on their own.
'Are they the other students of the academy?' Gin thought and walked towards them.
The three figures also caught sight of Gin and were perplexed by the sudden visitor.
"Is he a visitor? or someone who came to pick a fight with us!" A young man commented as if it's a normal occurrence.
"Don't be rude, Nyd." another young man said.
"Could it be he's the new student that Dean mentioned?" The three figures discussed. Even though they spoke in a low voice, Gin heard their conversation.
"Little Gin, when did you come back?" A sweet voice sounded, but the way of addressing seemed a little weird when it reached his ears.
"Just now," Gin replied noticing the figure of Meylin, "Sister Mey, can you drop the word 'little'. I feel weird hearing it."
"Haha, it suits you better." Meylin giggled.
"So he's the new student who joined our academy recently!"
"Didn't Dean Alfin mentioned he gone to participate in arena battles? Did Dean deceive us again?"
"Stop the bickering you three fools, can't you introduce yourself first?" Meylin yelled.
"Little Gin, don't mind them. Even though they are your seniors, they are well known by another name - three fools of 'Heaven fall academy'." Meylin spoke while shame is evident on her face.
"1st fool - Nyd, 2nd fool - Klin, 3rd fool - Zev" Meylin introduced them to Gin.
"What? Senior sister Meylin, how can you say that to our junior?" Nyd spoke.
"Your words have deeply dishonored our reputation," Klin said.
"When did you fools had one?" Meylin snapped while three of them snorted at the same time.
"Hello, seniors, nice to meet you. I am Gin." Gin swiftly intervened and introduced himself, ending the quarrel.
"Hello Junior, Nice to meet you. If you face any trouble, you can look for us!" spoke Nyd, in a toffee-nosed manner.
"We three brothers are strongest and so, you will be safe if you follow us," Klin said.
"Yes," Zev affirmed.
"It will be a relief if you three fools don't make any trouble for us and Dean!" Meylin muttered. Thankfully, only Gin with sharp ears heard it.
"Little Gin, come, let's go. If we stay near them any more than that, we will also become fools." Said Meylin and walked, while Gin followed.
"Did Senior Meylin just treat us like a disease?" Nyd doubtfully asked.
"I think so," Zev responded.
"How could she?" The three of them once again began to bicker.
--
"Where is Baste, sister Mey" Gin asked.
"Baste? He's not here. I think he went to one of the Eight domains." Meylin said. "You haven't met Drez and Nixa yet right?"
"Drez and Nixa? are they also a student at our academy?" Gin asked.
"Yes, fortuitously, they are normal people like us, unlike those three fools!"
Gin and Meylin reached the academy food court, where Gin met Drez and Nixa.
Drez was a young man around 18 or 19 with dark blue hair and lean-built. He seemed like a cool person that anyone can get along with.
While Nixa is a young pretty woman with red hair. Both of them warmly welcomed Gin and introduced themselves.
Gin was surprised by their strength because all three of them are in the 'Seal opening stage'.
Unlike before, he can easily gauge other people's strengths using his soul skills.
He discerned their strength ��� Drez opened at least 4 hidden seals in his body, Nixa opened 2 hidden seals while Meylin being the strongest of them all with 5 hidden seals opened.
"Gin, I heard you went to the battle born arena to improve your combat skills, is it true?" Drez asked.
"Yes,"
"Ohhh, I didn't think a newbie as you would go there! How did you come out so soon?" Nixa asked.
Gin laughed a little and recounted the battles he faced in the arena.
"What? 50 victories and only one loss... How did you accomplish that?" Drez asked, shaken up, while Nixa and Meylin looked at Gin in shock.
"Haha, our academy finally recruited a genius. If the Skyfall Academy knows this, they will regret it for their life." Drez laughed.
"I'd love to see their expressions at that time, it would be refreshing," Nixa added.
"I bet it would be!" Meylin smirked. Then, the three of them looked at each other and grinned evilly.
He could tell the three of them were planning something wicked, 'Did our academy has some sort of grudge against the Skyfire academy?' Gin thought.
The four of them spoke about many things while having their dinner. After their chat, Gin felt his relationship between his seniors increase.
"Gin, take a rest as you will be tired from all the traveling. But first thing tomorrow, we will have a friendly spar." Drez said.
"Sure, I would love to!"
Soon, Drez and Nixa left leaving Meylin and Gin alone. "Sister Mey, does our academy has resources and tools for concocting potions?"
"Huh? You are interested in producing potions? I thought you are the type of person who only practices in a martial way." Meylin oddly looked at Gin.
"I know little about potions so I want to try them. Moreover, I am a Physique cultivator. I need lots of credits and many natural resources if I want to increase my strength." Gin sighed.
During his two months stay in the arena, he faced many problems. At first, Gin thought he would be able to increase his strength as he already comprehended the mysteries of his physique scripture.
But only after some time, he figured that he was wrong. The challenge of discovering his hidden physique seals began to increase after every seal.
It was also part of the reason that he was only able to uncover 6 hidden seals, till now.
Unlike others, he needs a huge amount of natural resources like valuable herbs, magical fruits, potions, elements stones.
Fortunately, the books – Herbal Encyclopedia and Alchemy Basics – he unlocked in the magical space taught him a way to create potions that would help him in improving his strength.
"Really?" Meylin gave a cynical look.
"Believe me, Sister Mey." Gin said but Meylin didn't trust his words.
Even so, she explained: "Our academy has some potion-making equipment but we don't have sufficient materials."
"Can you take me there?" Gin asked. He saw the pictures of Potion making equipment in the book, so he wants to confirm whether they have the same.
Meylin nodded and led Gin to the room with a sign mentioned as 'Alchemy'.
The room was fairly simple with several tools and equipment. A potion-makers need various equipment but, most important among them is a special crucible or cauldron that can withstand a high temperature of heat.
Even though the equipment in the room was not as described as in the book, it was more than enough for a beginner like him.
"In this room, you can find the essential equipment need for potion-making. Of course, our academy doesn't have any herbs or materials needed to make one."
"You have to gather everything on your own expanse. You can also consult Dean regarding this matter if you are truly into potion-making." Meylin explained.
"Sure, Sister Mey"
"Ok, Bye. I am going to my room. See you tomorrow, Little Gin" Meylin left while Gin went to visit Dean Alfin.
'Sigh, I hope not everyone calls me like Sister Mey. Hearing her calling me 'little Gin' gives me goosebumps.' Gin thought.
