"I don't know why, but it feels really good. It feels the same as humiliating the noble families in the Acedia Era who sided with Xavier," Raff muttered as he waved his hand at the students watching his fight.
"It's hard to believe, but he can actually nullify his opponent's magic within a certain distance. But there's an exception for magic released from a great distance. It seems like he can't cancel it, or maybe he can but he doesn't? Either way, he's very interesting," Lola thought as she left the training area.
"His plat armor are really annoying. Even so, it seems that his passive ability only works within a three meter radius of his body, and he can't neutralize the long-range attacks either. Maybe that's the only drawback, his passive skill really deserves to be called a plot armor," Hayato thought as he looked at Raff waving his hand from afar.
"Long live Raff Lostfield!" shouted some of the first year Rank F students who joined in the excitement.
"Raff Lostfield!" shouted the first year Rank E students, who were happy that the student considered weaker than them could beat even seven second year Rank B students.
The angry second-year students seemed to disperse, followed by the rest of the students, and the C, B, and A rank students seemed to be upset that the battle was not what they had imagined. Some of the other noble descendants even grumbled, thinking that Mace had humiliated the other noble descendants.
"Tch. I should have been in that position," Hayato grumbled as he left the training ground.
The first year Rank F students immediately entered the field to applaud Raff's success, while the second year Rank B students entered the field to carry Mace and his unconscious friends.
"You can do it, Raff," praised one Rank F student as he approached Raff.
"Hehehe... It's not much, I'm just paying back those who were arrogant in our room," Raff replied with a happy laugh.
"Do you want to party with me?" an F-rank girl asked, smiling at Raff.
"Hehehe... sorry, I'm not going to anyone's party. I already have my own party," Raff said with a smile.
"Eh, too bad," said some disappointed Rank F students.
"Please make way!" a woman's voice suddenly shouted from outside the crowd of Rank F students.
Everyone, including Raff, turned their attention to her as Miyura, Zoa, Van Ugo, Fia and Cindy approached. The Rank F students immediately gave way when they saw the gold emblem with the number three engraved on their clothes.
"Raff Lostfield," Miyura said as she looked at Raff.
"You were the ones who attacked me at the market," Raff said, pointing at Miyura.
"Oh, you were the one who fell victim to the Fugitive's illusionary skills," Miyura said as she pointed the spear in her hand at Raff.
"What do you want? Do you want to fight me?" asked Raff, looking at Miyura. "Even though I forgot about that incident after I got the compensation," Raff continued while looking at Miyura's other friends.
A splash of water seemed to envelop Miyura's spear, but it didn't last long as the splash dissipated without forming anything. Miyura immediately tied her spear to her back again.
"There's no mistake, I can't use my magic near him," Miyura thought.
"Miyura," Fia said as she saw her friend still staring at Raff.
"Raff Lostfield, I have a good offer for you. Join my party," Miyura said with a serious look on her face.
Suddenly, all the Rank F students were surprised when they heard this, even the other members of Miyura's party were surprised. But Raff laughed at the offer of his senior at the academy.

"Your offer is not good at all. I already have my own party and I won't join another one until I die," Raff refused without hesitation.
"Oh, is it one of their parties?" asked Miyura, looking at the other F-rank students.
"No, it's not. But another party," Raff replied.
"Tch. So there's already a more formidable senior recruiting you," Miyura grumbled with an annoyed look on her face. "I guess I never heard your rejection Raff, you can come to me if you change your mind," Miyura continued as she turned around before Raff could answer.
"One thing you must remember Raff, joining a party that is strong and has a high status will benefit you. Especially now that the noble descendants will definitely start targeting you to be eliminated or expelled from the Elexia Academy, so don't make the mistake of choosing a party," Van Ugo said while looking at Raff.
"Hehehe... you don't have to worry," Raff replied.
"The people around him will also be targeted, so you should not get too close to him, remember that you have become adventurers from today. Your death can come anytime and anywhere," Zoa said, looking at the other F-rank students.
Party Miyura immediately left the crowd of Rank F students. All the other Rank F students looked panicked after hearing Party Miyura's words, realizing the danger that lurked if they got too close to Raff. Although deep inside, they were happy to see Raff humiliate the noble descendants.
"As they say, it's best not to get too close to me, don't be naive, protect yourself because the only one who can protect you is you, I won't be able to protect all of you, don't pin your hopes and safety on me, I'm not a hero," Raff said with a smile.
"You're right," said several other Rank F students.
At that moment, all the Rank F students dispersed from the training field. Raff was the last Rank F student to leave the training ground. In the distance, a second-year Rank B student looked sharply at Raff, but Raff didn't care.
"It is allowed to kill in duels, what a strange rule. Even though killing fellow adventurers has been forbidden since I was a child, adventurers who violate this rule will be hated by other adventurers. Besides, there is no difference in status between one adventurer and another, who exactly made such a ridiculous rule?" Raff muttered as he looked up at the sky.
That day, all the Rank F students returned home to collect their supplies, and Raff and Hayato also returned to their inn. That night was the last time they stayed at the inn.
The next day, Raff and Hayato took their clothes to Elexia Academy. On the way, they also saw some first-year students heading to Elexia Academy while carrying supplies.
All first year students were immediately directed to the academy dormitory at the end of the academy grounds. The dormitory area was at a higher place than the other building areas, so all the students had to climb up the foot of the mountain for a while to reach the dormitory area.
There were thirty-two buildings in the dormitory area, each separated by a garden and a fish pond. Unlike the classrooms, this time the Rank F dormitory building is the smallest. However, the Rank F buildings of the first year are much larger than the Rank F buildings of the second year and the following years.
The Rank A Dormitory is the most luxurious and largest of the buildings, the Rank S Dormitory and the Rank Hero Dormitory are even much smaller than the Rank C Dormitory. Each dormitory is surrounded by a garden area and there is a fish pond behind the dormitory, of course the garden and fish pond of the Rank A Dormitory are the largest.
The rules of the academy dormitories are the same as those of the academy classrooms, high-ranking students can enter the dormitories of lower-ranked students, but not vice versa. There were Ruttera Kingdom soldiers stationed around the construction area of the C, B, and A class dormitories, but not around the F, E, and D class dormitories.
This morning, all of the freshmen had gone to their respective dormitories to choose their rooms and store their supplies. Raff and Hayato had chosen their rooms as well.
Raff came out of his room after storing the supplies he had brought with him, "The room is so small, there is only one bed and one closet," Raff grumbled quietly.
"I think it's like a dog cage, it's not suitable for a main character like me," grumbled Hayato, whose room was right next to Raff's.
"Ah, you obviously chose the room next to me, Raff," said a Rank F student who lived just to the left of Raff's room.
"Oh, you pine, I thought that room just happens to be unoccupied," Raff replied.
"Oh, Raff. We're neighbors," said an F-rated student coming out of the room across the hall from Raff's room.
"Hehehe... we're in the same house, why should we be called neighbors, Nlo," Raff said with a smile.
"Hey. What does that mean? How long have they known each other? I've never even heard them talk to each other," thought Hayato, who was surprised to see another F-rank student already getting to know Raff.
"A nameless NPC like you should be proud to be near the room of a main character like me," Hayato said while wiping his bangs.
"Eh? The fart guy is near our room too?" said Nlo.
"I hope you don't fart too much in here, then my room and Raff's room will smell too," Pine said. Raff and Nlo laughed.
"Hey. Isn't that bullying the main character? What kind of world is this?" Hayato thought.
"Let's look around and see where the girls' rooms are," Nlo said, looking at Raff.
"You guys go ahead," Raff said.
Pine and Nlo left Raff immediately. Hayato himself immediately crouched down and leaned his back against the door of his room.
Raff immediately frowned when he saw Hayato's attitude, "What happened to you?"
