Boom! Alex's eyes opened wide at the terrifying sound that startled him. It seemed the entire class was startled at the noise of the explosion, which originated from a girl named Gianna at the back of the class. Smoke emerged from the table in front of her, and her face was covered in ash, similar to a cartoon. "Are you all right?" Mr. Mason asked, rushing to the girl's table. Immediately, he willed his mana to halt the emerging smoke, causing it to subside. The entirety of the table was broken…-

"It's been a while since we've had a mana arts class," commented Jake, walking alongside Arthur as they approached Mr. Mason's classroom. Usually, the mana arts class was held in their homeroom, but for unknown reasons, Mr. Slovenio's class was occupied. Also, the mana arts class had been discontinued for a while due to Mr. Mason's absence, but since he'd returned, the class resumed. Mana arts was a subject everyone pursued, as it focused on the basic aspects of combat and theory. It involved dealing…

"Hello, Xavier," greeted Arthur, passing by the butler. He'd entered using the card the butler gave him last time. The guards at the entrance were quite surprised by the card, and had to summon Xavier to confirm its validity. "Even after handing you a card, you still manage to call me here," Xavier replied, rubbing his forehead in annoyance. "It's the one day I received a vacation. I was peacefully clipping my nails in my room." Arthur simply chucked, heading to Gregorio's room. Since he'd…

"Where are you going this early in the morning?" Caroline asked in a drowsy voice. One of her eyes was closed, and she was barely holding herself up with her core while in a crunch position on her bed. It was a weekend, which meant there were no classes. Right at dawn, Arthur crawled out of bed before getting ready. When he turned on the lights of the room, Caroline stirred from her sleep, which resulted in the current situation. Arthur was dressed in a casual T-shirt and jeans, with a scabbard…

Several months passed, and only two remained until the end of the school year. It was a joyous occasion, as admissions to enter Heaven's Spire had opened up after so long. Everyone was excited. In the past few months, not much had occurred. Classes continued like usual, all events were in order, and there weren't any movements on the enemy side. Arthur still believed Arcadia Academy was unaware of their plan. It was a time of peace… to enjoy oneself, and conspire to topple a world-level force.…

"Ms. Gomez," said Arthur, still healing from his wounds. The petite woman appeared from within the forest, alongside Gary, Jake, a few other students, and a few other teachers. It seemed like most of the hunting party had gathered. Their expressions were strained, as if they'd just emerged from a tough battle. Noticing Arthur's injuries, Jake quickly approached the crimson-eyed man, genuine concern visible in his eyes. "Are you okay?" "No, I'm not," replied the crimson-eyed man, letting out a…

Boom! Boom! Slash! Thud! Smash! The elephant raged, releasing massive amounts of dark mist that seemed to disrupt the concentration of its enemies. It was like a neuro depressant that slowed brain activity, preventing others from making rational moves. As the dark mist seeped into the minds of both Arthur and Evan, it caused their movements to become sluggish. Following that development, the elephant stomped on the ground. Boulders rose from the soil beneath, floating beside the beast. Swoosh!…

"Are you suggesting…?" "Yeah," Arthur confirmed, backing away from the elephant, who seemed to be experiencing rapid changes. "It wasn't there before, but perhaps when we looked away… it's supposed to be invisible unless inside a host, right?" Caroline nodded solemnly, reinforcing Arthur's presumption. "Does that mean no one else found the Invisible Venom Lizard until we just happened to come across it when it entered the elephant we were fighting?" "Is there a different possibility at this…

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Each second, a rock the size of a human's body fell to the ground. It caused shockwaves to run through the ground and caused craters as deep as five to six feet to appear. It was a true rain of Earth. Arthur, Gary, and Evan desperately utilized their footwork techniques and skills to avoid being the victim of such a devastating attack. Considering the sheer scale of attack, it wouldn't be a surprise to witness a portion of the entire forest being wiped out. Caroline…

The students were divided into groups of three or more, after which there were a few outliers. They quickly dissolved into the other groups, and the hunt officially began. Ms. Gomez instructed them to bring back the carcasses of any extra beasts they hunted. However, their main goal remained the same… To hunt the Invisible Venom Lizard. Usually, the task would be handed off to second or third-year students at Arcadia Academy, but many students predicted it was due to a lack of manpower at such a…
