"Rank 2!" Reed's voice boomed. William stood up and stepped out calmly, ignoring the whispers in the air. He reached the stage with a slight smile and confidently said, "Rank 1." Ember stood up without any change in expression, calmly walking to the stage and positioning herself across from William. William maintained his smile and attempted some light banter, intending to elicit a laugh from her, "Lady Ember, please take it easy with me." However, Ember continued to stare at him without any…

After the intense battle between Atticus and Aurora, it was the second years' turn to fight. There were more trainees in the second year than the first years, with their numbers reaching 30. Their battles went by quickly, and Atticus found them rather boring. Just like the first years, most of the second years were still at the novice rank, so the fights weren't as interesting as he would have liked. With novice rank individuals only able to learn one art, they each attacked with a single move, which…

This fight was what everyone had been waiting for. Almost everyone in camp knew that Aurora was Rowan's daughter and were initially surprised when an unknown boy got the 1st rank instead of her. This surprise, however, subsided when they found out Atticus's actual identity. Elias and the other instructors also watched with rapt attention. Elias smiled, 'Let's see how strong you are,' while gazing at Atticus. Atticus met Aurora's gaze and calmly stood up, walking to the stage nonchalantly. All eyes…

As Reed's command echoed through the arena, Aria moved with a swiftness that seemed almost unreal. Her nimble fingers drew three arrows from the quiver on her back and expertly nocked them on her bowstring. Without hesitation, she released all three arrows simultaneously, a clear intent to end the match swiftly. Lucas, however, remained composed, his serene smile unmarred by the three deadly arrows zeroing in on him. He reached for one of the slates he held, his fingers dancing gracefully as he…

The man had the signature white hair of the Ravensteins, and, to Atticus's surprise, he possessed a slender figure. It was the first time he was seeing an individual of such strength being anything other than heavily muscled. The camp had separate instructors for each year, and with their various activities, it was entirely possible not to encounter some of them. "Welcome, trainees! For those of you who don't know me, I'm Reed, and I'll be the host for today's combat challenges," he announced, his…

And just like that, two months had passed, and it was the day of the combat challenges. Atticus, Nate, and Lucas walked together to the location where it would take place. They had just come out of their room after freshening up following the morning training session. During the two months, the trainees had adapted spectacularly. While none had managed to make it to the finish line apart from Atticus, they had become more adept at spotting and avoiding the traps. Most of them were now capable of…

The next day, Atticus woke up and followed his usual routine. Nothing had really changed; he was still the first and only person to complete the course. After the morning session, he returned to his room. A quick, refreshing shower later, he sat down cross-legged inside the training room and began the process of absorbing mana. Despite having numerous skills to train, Atticus knew that neglecting his mana absorption would be a mistake. It served as the foundation for all his skills, and without a…

Getting to the camp Atticus went straight to the beast division to turn in his hunt. "Hey, Little genius. You came back quick," Belle greeted Atticus with a smile as he approached the counter. Atticus noticed she seemed a bit more cheerful today, and it didn't take him long to figure out why. "No paperwork today?" Atticus inquired as he handed over his kills. "No! It's like the heavens listened to my prayers!" Belle replied cheerfully as she inspected the carcasses, and Atticus couldn't help but…

After dispatching the Horned Lupinors, Atticus quickly stored their bodies in his storage ring. As he turned to leave, he sensed some unexpected movement emanating from the cave. His eyebrows furrowed in suspicion. 'Hmm? There shouldn't be any more beasts here, or could the information be wrong again?' He couldn't help but contemplate. The reliability of the information they received on his first hunt with the squad had been questionable. Although nobody had been harmed during that incident,…

65 Trying out the art Atticus returned to his room after training, taking a refreshing shower before deciding to rest for a while. A few hours later, he woke up, feeling recharged, and made his way to the Beast Division. The day before, Atticus had sent a message to Hella through his device, expressing his desire to hunt alone from now on. Knowing Atticus's strength, Hella readily agreed. While any trainee could apply to hunt alone, permission to hunt without a squad was typically for more…
