Rein fell to the ground as he ran out of breath, he stares blankly into the sky.
โIโve been able to deduce one very important thing thanks to masterโs fundamental drills.โ
He sat, โgaining stats points from levelling up and gaining stat points from sheer hard work are two different things, with a very wide distinctive difference. The system does everything for you, skills, growth, body enhancement, every single thing the system does for you, making life way easier. But what happens when the system decided to betray you, there are so many uncertainties but what I do know is, whosoever created the system can do anything with it, if they gave it to us, then they can also take it away. Then youโd be left with nothing because you relied on the system your entire life, over the past week after witnessing the true depth of the sword of the moon, Iโve earned the gods wrath, if they decide to take away the system today, Iโll be left the way I started, though Iโm not sure if they can take away godeye that has used me as a host, if they strip me of my achievements, itโd get bad, very bad. Yooosh!โ
He stands up,
โIโve got a master anyway, Iโll just start everything from the foundation and not rely on the system. If then I canโt stop now can I?โ
Rein took off and began to continue running.
Jon and Sigrid watched him from afar.
"Isnโt he suddenly energetic"
"Yes" Jon smiled, "Heโs been like that since he arrived"
Sigrid looked at him, "yea, probably. . ." she irkly asked, ". . .why are you blushing"
"Eh. . . why will I blush! thatโs so weird. Iโm just happy heโs beginning to live up to his potential."
"Well itโs good that heโs changing, our party leader should be unrivalled if we are the only platinum class party."
". . . we are not"
"last time I checked. . ."
"last time you checked was before the founding ceremony"
"then are you telling me a new party was formed?"
"Where on earth have you been Sigrid?"
"Well, the training facility has all the supplies youโll need to live there for at least six months, donโt worry I donโt plan on staying six months for now."
"So you have been training?"
"You saw it too, I canโt keep relying on Onoskelis, I have to hone my skills too."
"You are right, I probably should start preparing to break into the 4th circle and become a full-fledged 3-star mage."
โThis is. . . are Iโm not surprised anymore, seeing Rein, Iโm not surprisedโ
"Anyways, you didnโt explain why we arenโt the only platinum class party anymore"
"ah that, well three parties fused. More so, all parties are moving and already forming an alliance instead of the coming test, currently, thereโs the Rectitude alliance and the Resilience Alliance. We are yet to join any though, our party leader is still being reluctant."
"I see he is finally taking up his job"
"Iโve never felt better Iโve got a lot of time to do my stuff now while heโs always busy as he should be."
"Well if youโll excuse me, the 2nd test is less than a month away Iโm heading back to the training facility"
"Why donโt you just accept a master, there are tons of strong instructors willing to take you as their disciple?"
"didnโt you hear earlier on. . . all they are interested in is harnessing Onoskelis power, I donโt want to rely on him too much"
"He looked like he cared about you though"
"Hmm. . . " She smiles and leaves him.
"I should probably get to work"
The academy became a lot more intense, the student began to push themselves to the extreme, getting stronger and stronger. Rein who taught focusing on levelling up was the way had now learnt better, he began fundamental classes with the vice-principal, and began to do footwork training, he would even dance in a particular rhythm; it was the vice principal that taught him to do so. He danced in his dorm, danced in the toilet, dancing in the dining hall, danced all day, he was probably seen as a freak by a lot of people who did not know the essence of what heโs doing but then every student was filled with their stuff, no one had the luxury of time to care about another person.
The second test was the real deal, whether they looked it or not they were the soldiers in training and soon they would be going to a real war, a war that if they die, they die for real. They couldnโt help but be serious.
Two weeks into the next month a large Artician army of estimate over 150 thousand marched into the academy. The activities of the Fangdorr savages were getting intensified.
The savages seem to think they are not being taken seriously that is why they are being neglected and even using the war as a platform to test kids.
Five months have passed since the Founding ceremony, five months have passed since Reinโs realisation of how relentful he has been, five months have passed since Rein has truly begun to grow according to his prospect.
Rein and his master were clashing swords,
"Ohio getting good on those legs I see"
"It thanks to your guidance master"

โgreat. . . heโs getting better, heโll soon be ready for the real dealโ
With his footwork now perfected, Rein found it easy to counter and block simple sword clashing, compare to before that all he had was skills and no basic, he could now go hours with just simple basic sword fights from quick calculations and judgements. The vice principalโs left hand was at his back, his right hand was holding a wooden sword, it was a simple sword fight without the use of any sword skill, but Rein was catching up fast, he suddenly became very cunning and unpredictable when it came to sword fights like this, so the old man thought, he had not the slightest idea that Reinโs high insight stat was in play.
One thing the system canโt do is not announce your achievement by sheer hard work, as Rein fought over and over again with the vice principal he got better, heโs insight kept increasing, it was to be expected, in every battle he was putting his head to quick use, trying to figure out the best possible outcome, it was a magnificent growth and somehow fir the past five months, the system had been silent on Reinโs side, except from one time he got the notification that not levelling up for a long time would cause level reduction and stat reduction, it was the system penalty for stagnant level but Rein understood better, he knew the system was just trying to force him into relying on him, he levelled up only three times the oast five months. He wasnโt particularly bothered.
Another aspect Rein trained endlessly in was controlling his beastial will. He had just entered only phase one of transformation and can only maintain it for about 7 minutes, whereas there are still four phases of beastial transformation. He was opportune to see Nezaโs third phase secretly.
He saw the power difference and was very determined at getting better forgetting that a mythical beast can not handle a demonic beast.
Belet was released and things were better, plus something was maturing inside Reinโs inventory something not even the world could bear.
He had forgotten about the gifts he received from the elven sage.
