章 18: Class Awakening Ceremony (2)
As the four types of mana merged within the crystal ball, they began to swirl around each other, as if they were playing catch.
However, as Matthew channeled his mana into the crystal ball, beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
The crystal ball greedily devoured his mana, draining him with each passing second.
What felt like a mere moment to an ordinary person stretched into an agonizing eternity for Matthew; each second seemed like an entire hour for him.
"Keugh...!" He gasped.
ZOOM!
Suddenly, Matthew's aura exploded, engulfing the entire hall in its suffocating embrace.
"Gauh!" The students cried out in anguish, the oppressive pressure bearing down on them like a weight crushing their very souls.
They kneeled down to him, smashing down against the ground. And even the high-level priest's body was shaking.
"Mirstena!" Lilian's voice rang out as she soared into the sky, creating a barrier to protect the students from Matthew's aura.
But that wasn't going to be enough...
The spade symbols in Matthew's eyes glowed with an ominous darkness, casting a sinister light across the hall.
CRACKLE!
The sky above turned a deep, foreboding black, the clouds swirling ominously as crimson lightning streaked across the heavens, striking the ground crazily, making a huge hole with each hit
Lilian's eyes widened in horror as the lightning struck her barrier, shattering it easily.
Gritting her teeth, she quickly raised multiple layers of barriers in a desperate attempt to protect the students.
Her gaze landed on Matthew's figure, and suddenly, she felt an overwhelming fear gripping her heart tightly, causing her to quickly avert her eyes.
Turning to the high-level priest, she found him healing the students who had been deeply affected by Matthew's aura.
Every single student was gasping, and the ground was covered with blood...
"What is this...?" she muttered, her voice tinged with unease as she gazed up at the darkened sky.
Meanwhile, Matthew's mana continued to be sucked away, his legs trembling deeply as he struggled to maintain his composure.
"Keukha!"
Crack...
Suddenly, Matthew's eyes widened as he watched the crystal ball before him begin to crack under the strain of the chaotic energies.
As the energies surged, the cracks multiplied until...
CRACK!
The crystal ball shattered into countless shards, unleashing a wave of power that sent Matthew hurtling into the sky.
In his eyes, the spade symbols glowed with an intensity that seemed to pierce the very fabric of reality.
ZOOM!
The earth trembled beneath him, and the sky split open with a deafening roar as crimson lightning danced across the heavens.
From the swirling clouds emerged a colossal figure of a woman, her form towering over the landscape like a harbinger of doom.
The woman's gaze bore into Matthew's, and in that instant, their eyes locked.
Matthew immediately felt a huge sense of familiarity as he saw her eyes, which also had a spades symbol, just like his own eyes.
The woman's lips curled into a serene smile as she extended her hand towards Matthew.
Without thinking twice, Matthew stepped forward into her hands and looked at her faintly.
Her lips parted, and a melodic voice filled the air, uttering words that were completely unknown to everyone...
"Ανατείλατε, τέκνον μου, εκείνος που θα κυβερνήσει τον κόσμο! Απελευθερώστε την σφραγίδα αυτήν την κρυμμένη στην ψυχή σας και εκδηλώστε τη δύναμη που ανήκει σε εμάς και τους δύο!"
As soon as she spoke, Matthew felt a strange energy surge through his body, causing his magic circles to swirl chaotically.
But just as suddenly as they had started, the circles calmed down, restoring a sense of order.
The woman's smile warmed as she looked at Matthew once more, then vanished into thin air.
Before Matthew could stumble, he felt four arms gently supporting him—two on his left and two on his right—guiding him safely to the ground.
The dark sky returned to its usual serene hue, and Matthew's class finally appeared in the sky, the letters outlined in a deep, inky color that seemed to drip like liquid...
[Prince of Darkness]
Once Matthew saw his class, his lips curled into a deep smile.
However, because his mana was almost completely devoured, he felt a huge headache and couldn't help but pass out directly.
Swish!
Before his body could meet the ground, he felt a gentle embrace covering his body, and even if he had passed out, he smiled deeply.

"Ahh..."
Opening his eyes, Matthew found himself in a completely unknown place. He felt his aching body and groaned slightly.
He looked around and noticed that he was probably in one of the academy's healing rooms.
"Alright... firstly, I'm going to check my Class Details~!" Matthew didn't even think about checking the condition of his body.
His excitement too see his class was otherworldly huge!
"Class Details!"

"..."
Matthew was completely speechless when he saw his [Class Details].
Everything about this class was extremely powerful, and it would undoubtedly benefit him greatly!
Specifically, the class's last passive skill.
Matthew, as a commoner, does not have a lot of money, so being proficient in auxiliary professions would be extremely beneficial.
After all, instead of paying someone to do what he wants, he can just do it himself, and he might be able to do a better job than them.
The only problem will be gathering the materials and workshops to do so.
"Getting this Class completely changes everything. The only problem is if the church takes action against me."
"Especially when the name [Prince of Darkness] was written so boldly in the sky." Matthew uttered with a thoughtful expression.
He looked at the clock and seeing that it was already a bit late, he remembered that he needed to meet up with Lilian.
He got up and made his way towards Lilian's office. As he walked along the halls, surprisingly there wasn't a single student in sight.
This made him a bit confused, but he just shrugged his thoughts and way and continued walking.
Reaching Lilian's office, he immediately knocked on the door.
"...Come in." Lilian's voice came through.
Matthew opened the door, and his eyes immediately widened as he saw Stacy and Lilian together.
Behind Stacy, a figure covered by yellow robes was staying still.
"Student Matthew, you're here..." Lilian spoke and then looked at Stacy for a moment.
"Well, I'll excuse me." Stacy got up and directly left with the yellow-robed figure.
Now, only Lilian and Matthew remained on the office. Lilian looked at Matthew for a while before finally speaking.
"How... did you do it?"
"Uhh? Ah, you mean how I broke the 'string of fate' from your wrist?"
"Yeah."
"Honestly, I don't really know. At that time, when I saw you being a perver—ahem, smelling that bottle, I felt a strange energy appear on my body, and then it suddenly was sent towards the string." Matthew 'explained'.
"Mhm... a strange energy, huh? Even I couldn't detect it..." Lilian murmured with a thoughtful face.
"Alright. Now, tell me about your class." Lilian smiled faintly.
Matthew could easily see that she was really interessed on his class.
"Nah. Besides, why would I tell you about it?"
"Why wouldn't you? I'm going to be your professor so I'll need to know a few details about it." Lilian commented.
"Ah, don't worry about it. I can study alone, besides, I did quite well without your help."
"Alright, you're dismissed. Tomorrow, you can come back to Class A. I already spoke with the Headmistress." Lilian sighed.
Bam!
After hearing her words, Matthew directly left and shut down the door. Lilian looked at the ceiling with a thinking expression after he did so.
"What... exactly was that?"
