'Alright...'
I took a deep breath and focused my attention on the options in front of me. Looking through the options I knew the only possible way for me to make use of my talents was being a close combat archer. Not only would I get some dagger skills but also some fast-paced shooting skills which could benefit from the eye of Apollo skill.
'Among all the classes a Mage and an Archer are the most famous ones, not only do they provide amazing DPS but also have higher survivability than the warriors. There are still some things I need to figure out though...'
I clicked the Close-combat archer and another skill revealed itself...
[Slash (Lv-1)(SP 0/5)](Common)
[-Use your dagger to perform a slash on your opponent which deals 120% of your Total ATK as Dmg.]
[-Cooldown = 10 sec]
'I can't keep using expensive health potions if I am going to hunt solo, then either I would have to continue hunting dangerous monsters which could support the expenditure, or I would have to change money into coins... Let's test out this body at least before figuring out something-'
I walked through the village and out of the main gates. The surrounding fields were already filled with multiple people dashing and fighting some boars.
'Hmm, seems like some of them already have stabilized their physical condition, most of them are still struggling though... let's try it out.'
Looking at the red boar in front of me, I analyzed it, when a small transparent window appeared above the boar.
[Boar Lv-1 (mob)]
[HP= 10/10]
'Hmm...I didn't use any skill, this should be the basic information regarding the enemy, just the HP and level'
Apparently, the boar didn't like my staring as it dashed straight towards me. Summoning the starter dagger I hopped lightly resetting my center and then moved a step away from my initial position while bringing the dagger on the boar's skull.
[-12 HP] (Critical hit) [Gained 1 EXP] [Gained 1 CP]
The boar was killed instantly as it flopped on the ground and continued for a few meters due to inertia. I slowly walked to the boar and clicked its corpse as it dissolved leaving behind one copper coin.

'Hmm, it's good, just I'm a little weak... how was the damage calculated anyway?'
Seeing no response I picked up the copper coin before dashing towards the next boar, sidestepping its lunge I plunged my dagger into its side with a backhanded dagger then quickly moving onto the next target.
As I quickly massacred some boar's their bodies started dissolving as the continuous notifications kept ringing in my ears. After practising my full movement range I stopped and collected the 20 dropped copper coins when I felt someone approach me.
"Hey there I am Xinus Grey, I'm glad I could meet you!" a redhead kid with azure eyes said.
'Hmm, looks like some branch member, I don't remember seeing him in any function.'
"What is it?" I looked around at the small party behind me, some of them had the same facial features as Xinus as they looked warily at me.
"We were wondering maybe if you wanted to join us, we are going deeper into the forest." He replied with an uneasy smile.
"It's alright, I have work to do..." I looked at the forest behind them, according to the map that should be the location of the swamp, maybe I could find some bears in there.
I ignored the party and walked towards the forest.

Xinus's POV-
'It's better not to mess with him right now, our stats should be similar so he would probably be able to defeat all of us...'
"Tch, why is he so arrogant, does he still thinks he's the no.1 now..." Jeffrey said with an annoyed voice.
"Heh, like you could take him on, even after 1 year and being behind in fitness, nobody dares challenge him in the Military academy, what would a no-name like you do..." Kyla teased Jeremy before looking at the back of departing Adam.
"Shut up!!! That's just because big shot's like Miss. Rem and Rick respect his achievements, that doesn't mean he's no 1 anymore." Jeffrey shot back, his face taking a red hue.
"Shut up both of you!" Xinus interrupted, "It's not up to us to do anything, and I don't think we could take him on, plus he's got a sponsor backing him up again, word is that he placed a year's worth of S-grade gene solution yesterday. So he would be making a comeback soon enough."
"But he still doesn't have an Innate ability, most of the geniuses would crush him..." Jeffrey muttered quietly.
"It doesn't matter, that kid is a monster... he should have never been sidelined, dad said that the only reason it happened was because of political reasons... and I don't think not having an innate ability would stop him, he is already using his famous dagger style again..." Xinus replied, "And we have order's from Miss. Rem, if we are to meet him, either aid him or avoid him at all cost."
I looked at the fading back of one Adam Blake among the trees, 'Not that anyone would want to offend him for no profits... I need to report this-'
-------------------------------
All of Mars's 4 great families received a report that day, the Vanishing Blade style was seen in action once again at Tutorial Island 04,321 used by an individual who looked similar to Adam Blake. Attached along with the report was a clip of a light-armored warrior dashing between twenty pigs slaughtering them with one critical hit after another. The highlight of the blade-style was the mystical ability to dodge while somehow moving at full speed while also managing to get critical hits.
A large amount of Innate ability booster solutions were ordered and delivered to the 3 heirs of the family while in a luxurious room in the Blake family mansion a 17-year-old girl was looking at the video with an amazed look.
