Academy Arc 18

4th Class

==========

Zooooom

A blur glides through the sky as the moonlight reflect his red wings.

Neo then held Sven into his arms and spun around the air many times

Enjoying the feeling , Neo glides toward the south of the ocean , from where he was , he could see the forest that was close to his village.

Neo-"Mom.."

He then turns left , around the mountains as he glides down toward the forest he used to train in , he decided to explore the northern region of the forest.

After landing and running through the forest , the northern region wasn't as far as he thought it would be.

On the edge of the forest , he notice many camp fires and set up tents , the field was a flat area right next to a river.

He then look at the other side of the river as he notice something weird flashing dimly.

Neo-"What is that..?"

The island separated by the river had many gigantic mountains surrounded by dark clouds that would hint a flash of red.

Normally people wouldn't be able to notice the sparks but Neo had a really keen sight with his enhanced blood flowing through his eyes and body.

Neo looks back at the camp site and notice a big number of people gathering up together.

Neo-"They don't look like soldiers.. maybe they belong to a guild?"

Neo did not want to keep wasting times on something he doesn't know , carefree like Cyel , he turns back and continue his training.

At his usual spot , where many tree trunks were cut in half , he took off his shirt and lays it on top of the trunk.

Neo-"Be careful Sven"

Sven-"Rawrr"

Sven who grew slightly bigger , began to feast himself upon small beast in the forest.

Neo took out a silver ring from his pants , the ring had a tiny spike on it with no other special features.

He wore the ring on his right hand index finger and pokes his thumbs against it.

Blood floats out from his small wounds on his thumbs and formed a sword that looked identical as his black sword but only smaller.

Neo then lift his left hand on his left eyes and he suddenly emits a killing aura.

Zzzz...zzz...

Ria haven't seen Neo for a day during her fever and she misses him already

Ria-"Neo , it's times to wake up"

Cyel-"No....5 more minutes.."

Ria-"Sister Cyel! What are you doing here..!"

Cyel remained asleep while Neo woke up

Neo-"Good morning sister Ria , are you feeling better now?"

Ria-"Hehehe good morning little Neo"

Ria pushed Cyel off the bed and hugged Neo

Ria held Neo hand and went downstairs

As usual , Ria's friends , Saya and Mii came to pick her up before school starts.

After eating , Neo , Ria and her friends left the house and head off to school while Cyel was sleep sleeping

While he was together with Ria , he wanted to ask her about the gigantic mountain behind the kingdom and the reason why many people gathered in the campsite.

Not wanting to worry her , he resisted himself from asking.

Arriving at the school gates , Chrysty , Fleur , Fayn , Haln and Erri were waiting for him as usual.

As the class start , Neo decided to bring Fayn and Fleur to the principal office

Gessi-"Ah , Neo , you came with your friends"

Gessi had Neo and his friends sat down while she went in another room to get something.

Gessi came back right after with something wrapped in cloth in her hands

Gessi-"Principal Lest prepared these for you to make your climbing easier"

Gessi puts the clothes on the table infront of them and revealed 3 thin cards , the cards were slightly smaller than the student cards.

Fayn-"What are these?"

Fayn held out his hand out of curiosity

Gessi-"These are a superior class items known as the Space Card , they can store any object aslong as you hold the card beside it "

This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it

Fleur-"Woah... but these are expensive.. can we really take these..?"

Fayn-"I..I can store food..?!"

Gessi-"Aslong the food is in a container or some sort , and these were giving by the principal , these cards has a 5x5m dimension , stored item will not weight the card at all"

Space cards dimensions were made by fusing many rank 1 wind crystals until it reach the dimension aspect , then fused into platinum objects but while platinum is really rare and hard to mold , they chose to make a small cards shape to fuse with the dimensional aspect.

If one wanted to increase the dimension space inside the card , he would need to get many wind crystal and find a enchanter expert.

Fire , wind , earth and water all each have different aspect as they get stronger.

Neo-"But...why is the principal Lest giving these to us?"

Gessi-"Uhm... it's........y.. you.. will have to ask principal Lest when he gets back..."

Neo , Fleur and Fayn looked at each other

Gessi-"Ah , don't forget to soul bind your card"

Soul bind were typical way to bind an Superior class item or higher to a owner , the bind can only occur if the items doesn't have a owner , if the owner dies , all his soul bound item will be unbound.

While owner can use their items after binding it , the non owner will not be able to use them at all , at most they could just hold onto it.

Fayn and Fleur quickly picked their cards and soul bind them by transferring their mana into the card.

Unhappy with Gessi answer

Neo held the card and without binding it , he puts it in his pocket

Neo stood up and left the room without saying a word

Fayn and Fleur immediately followed him while Gessi looked in distress.

By the end of the day , it was finally his 4th class

Junee-"It been a couple of days now , only 6 of you have passed by exercise within a week , I will now start teaching you the basic use of Battle energy"

Junee explained to the 6 students who sat infront of her , Neo and Haln were among them while Fleur and Fayn were still running.

Battle energy are energy accumulated as your body muscular develops.

Warriors and magicians will walk on different path while everyone has mana and life force when they are born.

Magicians will increase their mana capacity in their own way while Warriors will increase their Battle energy through their life force therefore Life force powers Battle energy while Mana powers affinity

Life force are normally accumulated aslong as they live , but if one were to meditate and concentrate on gathering life force , it will dramatically increase their power but to find the right way to cultivate the life force through meditating is a really hard task.

The Battle energy is condensed energy from the life force , the more the body is developed , the more it will be able to absorb the condensed life force , after absorbing the life force , the Battle energy will be permanent and will recover naturally like mana users.

First , you must have a empty mind and focus on one single image

Second , you must be in peace with yourself

Third , you must be in a suitable form

While it sound simple , it is actually really hard to focus your life force , condensing it , making your cell and muscle absorb the energy while having a suitable body.

For a warrior to develop their body is either through muscle training or pushing their body to the limits.

While muscle training is simple and pushing to the limits is really painful , most of the warriors just build up muscle to get a faster road to power.

Warriors uses their Battle energy to enhance every part of their body at will and it will also allow them to heal wounds faster.

??-"Instructor Junee , is there a way to cultivate life force faster?"

Junee let out a sigh

Junee-"Don't be impatient kid"

As Junee said in a lower tone , then she coldly looked at Neo
