“My name is Leroy Lowery, and I'm the one who hired all of you to ensure my safety,” a middle-aged man with graying hair said as he gazed at the faces of the students of the academy. “Although I have my own bodyguards, it never hurts to have extra Wizards and Witches accompanying my convoy. The roads are not as safe as they once were, and Merchants like me can only hope that we don’t get robbed on our journey. “I have faith that, although all of you are still young, you have the ability to…-

Two days had passed since Luna’s group encountered the Hunters. Ethan and Chloe tacitly agreed to not take any missions to stay with their friend until they were sure that she was fine. “Really. I’m not that fragile, you know?” Luna said helplessly because Chloe was clinging to her like a koala. “The incident with the Wendigo was scarier than this.” The angelic beauty was happy that her best friends were worried about her, but she didn’t want them to delay what they should be doing…

A day after Ethan and Chloe returned to the academy… “I’m glad that you managed to return safely, Ethan,” Emma said with a smile. “Were you scared?” “Yes,” Ethan replied as he looked at his teacup. “If possible, I don’t want to experience that kind of scare again.” Emma eyed the handsome young man before sighing in her heart. Truth be told, she had seen a vision of Ethan being targeted by Hunters, so she sneakily followed him to Crawford Town. However, she didn’t…

Two hours before sunrise, Ethan stirred in his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he saw a young lady sleeping in his embrace. As much as he wanted to let her sleep a little longer, he knew that this was no longer possible. He gently shook her awake, and Chloe groaned in response as she opened her eyes. It was still a bit dark, so she had a bit of trouble adjusting to the darkness. “Ethan?” Chloe asked sleepily. “What’s wrong?” “We need to leave the city,” Ethan whispered in her…

“Thank you very much for returning Carl to me!” a girl who seemed to be around ten years old, thanked Chloe with tears in her eyes. “You’re welcome,” Chloe replied. “Make sure that you do not lose him again, okay?” “Un!” the girl nodded her head. The man, who was standing beside his daughter, smiled and handed Chloe a certificate of completion. He was the one who had sent the commission to Brynhildr Academy so that his daughter could reunite with her beloved pet that had been…

Just as Chloe expected, there were only mundane missions remaining when the number of people inside the Mission Hall finally decreased. There were even missions for finding lost animals like dogs and cats, which made Ethan scratch his head. According to Chloe, the missions posted in the Mission Hall were quests that were commissioned by the people in Eastshire. Meaning, these missions could have come from Royalty, Noble Families, and even the common folk who lived in the Magical World. There were…

Emma explained a lot of things to Ethan, giving him a general understanding of the land's layout. Eastshire was where the Human Kingdom was located. In Northshire was the Stronghold of the Dwarves. In Westshire was the Eden of the Elves. And in Southshire was the Dominion of the Beastkin. At the very center, where these four territories converged, was Heimdall’s Gate. This was a Teleportation Gate that allowed them to travel to the central continent of Midgard, which was a very vast…

A few days had passed since Ethan last talked to the Chesmire Cat. In those few days, Ethan trained and refined his Martial Skills to the best of his abilities. Nicole had told him that there was no way for him to become a master in such a short period of time. Mastery over skills and abilities required a lot of time, as well as experience in combat. But she also told him that there was a shortcut, and that was to experience real battles. Battles were very different from the spars, as well as…

The sound of weapons hitting each other reverberated inside the training room as Ethan’s and Nicole’s weapon clashed. Right now, the young man was using a pitchfork instead of the Sea God’s Trident, and attacked Nicole in a frenzy. The young lady deftly evaded, and deflected his attack with ease, causing Ethan to intensify his efforts. Nicole frowned after deflecting Ethan’s latest strike. The next thing she did was to lower her body and do a leg sweep, hitting her opponent, and making him…

When Ethan returned to his room, the first thing he noticed was the one-handed trident that resembled a Sai Sword, lying on top of his table. It was none other than the Sea God’s Trident that he had left inside the Great Eagle Forest. The young man then picked up the weapon with his left hand and looked at it with a solemn expression on his face. Half a minute later, something unexpected happened. The trident turned into particles of light and merged with Ethan’s hand. Not long after, the…
