Chương 3: Academy of Sword and Sorcery

Arlo City was a city inhabited by four races. Therefore, it had the most diverse types of buildings and food of any other place. It was not difficult for Elijah to see people of different races walking casually in that place. When Elijah met an elf, dwarf, or werebeast living freely along his journey, he finally truly believed that this world was different from the earth he knew.

As for finding the Academy of Sword and Sorcery, Elijah didn't have to bother looking because the place was visible even from the moment Elijah entered the gates of Arlo City. Its huge building was visible from all sides of Arlo City. It could be said that in Arlo City, the Academy of Sword and Sorcery was the main icon that attracted people to come to the place.

Elijah had no interest in the food or entertainment in Arlo City and went straight to the Academy of Sword and Sorcery as soon as he arrived in the city. The system had indeed taken everything into account before sending Elijah to the Rhodes Continent. At this time, it just so happened that the Sword and Sorcery Academy was opening up enrollment for new students for the new academic year.

When Elijah arrived at the Academy of Sword and Sorcery, the teenager was confronted with a line of horse-drawn carriages queuing to enter the most prestigious school on the Rhodes Continent. Some of them were clearly owned by wealthy people of various races. Every year, important or influential people seemed to come to enroll in the Academy of Sword and Sorcery.

In a place where everyone wanted to prove their status by riding the most luxurious horse-drawn carriage, the sight of Elijah coming on foot seemed to have caught the attention of the people in the place. Unlike the elves who had great mana from birth, or the werebeasts who were strong because of their physique, humans, especially those of ordinary origin, would usually not have enough strength to enroll in the Academy of Sword and Sorcery, which prioritized strength above all else.

Hence, some people slightly underestimated Elijah when he said that he would enroll as a student in the Academy of Sword and Sorcery confidently. Now and then, Elijah did not miss the mocking gazes shown by some people when he queued up to enroll like the others.

Unfortunately, Elijah was too busy with other things to pay attention to the reactions that others showed upon his arrival. Elijah only realized something when he accidentally stared at someone for too long. When Elijah was focused, he could see other people's status updates just like he saw his own.

At first, Elijah thought he could only see the information status of monsters or his own information status. But that didn't seem to be true. As long as Elijah was focused enough to pay attention to others, he could see anyone's information status to know their strength and skill.

"Then, please come back to this place next week! At that time, we will hold a test to determine the eligibility of those who will study in this place."

The academy seniors were tasked with keeping track of the new students, as well as seeing if there were any students with potential that they could watch out for before they entered the academy. Fortunately, the senior who was dealing with Elijah didn't mind his origins and kindly helped him fill out the various forms. The senior was a girl with cat ears who didn't stop smiling all the time. Elijah looked up at the senior's face, then saw the same status information he had seen on the others before.

[Name] Heidi (20 years old)

[Level 46]

[HP] 2000/2000

[MP] 600/600

[Stamina] 2000/2000

[Physical Skills] Two-handed axe level 31, Heavy armor level 25, Block level 17, Beast transformation level 15, Beast regeneration level 13, Leadership level 5

[Magic Skills] Wind level 8, Earth level 5

Elijah could guess that this cat girl in front of him was strong, as she could be a student at the academy of all places. However, the teenager did not expect that the girl who seemed friendly and harmless was, in fact, powerful. As expected of the werebeast race, their stamina and HP were enormous, while they were not very talented in using magic.

Another thing that attracted Elijah was the fact that skills such as Leadership also appeared in the physical skills list. Elijah thought physical skills meant any skill that consumed stamina while performing it. Meanwhile, magic skills are skills that consume mana when used.

DING!

[Side mission: The Greatest Disciple

1. Enroll in the Sword and Sorcery Academy to level up the User. (COMPLETED)

2. Enter a special class to gain access to missions while studying at the academy].

At the same time as Heidi finished her speech, Elijah saw that his mission had been updated by the system. Elijah read the phrase 'special class' written by the system, then decided to ask the cat girl about it.

"Excuse me. May I know what a special class is?"

"Do you want to enter the special class at this academy?"

Elijah nodded, then the cat girl began to explain what Elijah wanted to know about the special class.

"The special class is a class specially formed to gather geniuses born every year to receive a different method of education from ordinary classes. Those in the special class will be given missions and can be sure to live in danger during their time in the class. But the results obtained are also worth the risk. In addition to special class students getting different treatment at the academy, they also get priority in terms of magic discovery or learning provided by the academy."

In essence, the system did not want Elijah to have a mediocre day. Five years was only a short time to spend idly. Elijah didn't know if his strength would allow him to be selected for the special class. But for the sake of his main mission, Elijah intended to increase his level as quickly as possible before the academy entrance test was held in a week.

"Hey, are you okay?"

The cat girl saw Elijah daydreaming after hearing his explanation, then got up to wave her hand in front of the teenager's face. Her action brought Elijah out of his reverie immediately. Elijah was about to leave after he was done with his business. But because Elijah had been daydreaming in front of the cat girl, the girl assumed that Elijah had a hard time because he was the only participant who came on foot.

"Hey, have you decided where you're going to stay while waiting for the test?"

"...I haven't thought about it yet."

Elijah didn't understand why the cat girl would suddenly ask that. But thinking that he might trigger the mission by doing so, Elijah tried to answer the question as honestly as possible.
