098 – The Truth Cannot Be Buried #1

Time as a student went by much faster than expected.

In the blink of an eye, the midterms were already right around the corner.

Of course, I didn’t remain idle during that time and worked hard to develop myself.

Just look, the stats certainly spoke for themselves.

Name: Theo Gospel Angmar lv. 36

Job: Half-Fairy lv. 7

Casanova Lv. 6

Actor lv. 9

Tutor lv. 7

Mage lv. 7

Talents: 《Farsight》 《Calm Thinking》

Inclination: Chaotic-Neutral.

You are the only survivor of a fallen family.

You must revive the family while avoiding those who want to destroy it.

Fortunately, you are motivated to rebuild your family.

I was lacking in many aspects when I first got the system

But after checking several people’s status windows, I discovered that I was now in the top 50% of Ark students.

In terms of rank classification, I was a bona-fide Silver Rank.

And my ranking was roughly between 300 and 500 out of a thousand people. Compared to the time when I was complete garbage, this was a Heaven and Earth difference.

“Hmm-.”

However, in addition to satisfaction, there were also doubts. I couldn’t help but question myself, ‘Is this all I can do?’

I was the only surviving Angmar.

Yet, was the Demon King’s descendant, whose power could bend the rules of this world, only capable of this?

I expected more dramatic power-ups or some form of advancement, but it was the opposite. I was progressing too slowly.

If anything, it reinforced the fact that I still had a long way to go before being able to reach the level of Aira, Elga, Mirna, or the Hunter Party.

Chwareureuk-.

I was currently reading a newspaper with the terrifying headline of: “Crossbow Hunter, responsible for the Murder of a Student-Exploiting Realtor!”

Murder, in Ark?

Killing was strictly prohibited within its walls.

This was an undeniable fact.

However, the crossbow hunter couldn’t care less about such rules and would kill at his own accord. This was how the psychopathic main character was set up to be…

I couldn’t help but get nervous, wondering if the arrow tip might be pointed at me next.

━Did you hear? Another person died.

━Is it those guys in that party? Why the heǀǀ were those madmen invited here?

━They’re hunting the shadows that had infiltrated the academy. Also, that realtor deserved to die anyway! Motherfųcker made me pay 10 million coins for a small windowless room!

━That’s harsh…

Rumors of the main character’s party were spreading like wildfire among the students.

After all, a group of monstrous experts just arrived and started killing people. If anything, it would be strange if there weren’t any rumors. This development was also in the original story.

When the Angmar Kingdom collapsed after the Tyrant Queen’s execution, the Hunter arrived at Ark and purged the evil within.

Finally, the Hunter would clash against the corrupted Saintess, who had become the chapter boss…

Was the main scenario still progressing, just in another way?

“Theo, I’ve got your results.”

Just then ,a voice snapped me out of my thoughts.

Sitting in a chair, I turned my head and saw a white robed female faculty holding out a chart to me.

“In just the first month, your magic has developed tremendously. You’re already at 3rd rank, no, almost 4th rank! It’s a great improvement!”

“I see.”

“ ‘I see’— aren’t you surprised? How did you do it? Rank 3 is powerful enough to be sent to the barrier’s front line!”

For someone like this faculty staff, who evaluated students, she would naturally wonder how I improved at such a rapid pace.

“We should consider teaching the underdeveloped mages by referring to Theo’s timetable and diet. Maybe there is a solution in the lecture combination…!”

Seeing all this fuss, it seemed that my progress really was that surprising.

So I asked her, while pretending to know nothing.

“How long does it usually take for one to get from Rank 1 to Rank 3?”

“Um, well, about 10 years on average-?”

So I had completed 10 years worth of training in one month… It was indeed amazing if you thought of it that way. Was the blood of the Demon King slowly awakening?

“Then what about from Rank 3 to Rank 4, and so on?”

“As far as I know, Rank 3 to Rank 4 will also take about 10 years. Though, I don’t know about Rank 4 to Rank 5. There’s not much information to go off of.”

“I suppose that’s the case. After all, Rank 5 is the realm of Archmage.”

This also displayed how terrifying Aira was, to reach Rank 7 at the age of 20.

In fact, the Hunter Party had to work together just to have a chance at defeating Aira.

Which made me wonder, who would win if the current Aira and Hunter Party fought?

Aira had not devolved into the Queen of Slaughter, so her combat power might be slightly lower than in the story.

On the same vein, since Aira did not cause civil war and chaos in Angmar, it was highly likely that the Hunter Party could not accumulate experience because they didn’t get to kill big named villains.

Both were now weaker compared to the original storyline.

That was my current conclusion.

Meaning, there was definitely a way for me to survive!
