Chapter 165 A tiring yet normal day

After the classroom was filled with students. Professor Aliza finally arrived in the room with some papers.

Her expression was grim when she glanced at some students with a disappointed look.

Everyone present inside the room went silent when she arrived and gave them a cold glance.

She stepped onto the stage and stood behind the podium before slamming the papers on the podium.

"Good morning everyone."

Her narrow gaze swept on the students sitting on the chairs.

"I know you all have rested enough yesterday. That's why I would like to talk about the theoretical exam."

She picked up the papers and fiddled with them.

"I am done checking everyone's papers but some of you maybe thought I would check them with closed eyes that's why the only thing they wrote inside the papers was some made-up stories and strange symbols that even I can't describe what they were."

Her voice lowered as she sighed.

"I know the exam was a little hard, but that's not an excuse for not preparing adequately. We covered the material extensively in class, and I provided proper guidance for studying. So why are the results so bad?"

"Even the ones who were inside the Tower and didn't get the chance to study properly had scored better than the rest of the class...."

Her gaze first landed on Kyle and then on Alec and Mia but when she saw Nine she didn't know whether to laugh or cry because his paper was something that she would never forget.

"Well, I mean except for some special cases."

She cleared her throat and left the papers on the podium.

"Anyway, you will get your results after two days. They will be posted inside the student's hall."

"Let's not waste more time and start the lesson."

The students finally relaxed when Professor Aliza stopped talking about the theoretical exam. Nine glanced back at Kyle with a pained expression.

He saw how Professor Aliza gazed at him when she said 'The ones who entered the Tower performed better'. He even remembers how unlike Kyle she gave him a terrible stare.

'I think my 50,000 mana stones are already gone.'

He blinked. His eyes had lost the luster of life when he thought how he had to give Kyle 50,000 mana stones!

The class continued as Professor Aliza started the lecture about how mana affects the individual's bodies and makes them stronger the moment they break through.

After two hours the class was over and Professor Aster entered the classroom. He talked about different weapons and Artifacts.

Two hours later the first-year students left the classroom and entered another classroom to take the history lecture. A curly-haired old man who seemed to be in his mid-fifties was already present inside the classroom when the students arrived.

The old man gave the students some books and talked about how humans and other races lived after their relationship became better. He also talked about some old customs and why the Sea Continent doesn't like interacting with other races.

All the students listened attentively when the old professor suddenly started talking about the Sea Continent. Information regarding that continent was lacking because the mermaids always stayed inside the water.

"The mermaids possess a very strong affinity with water. That's why they preferred to stay in their home Kingdom but they can change their appearance and become similar to humans or elves. That's why even if they come out and roam inside the other Continents no one can recognize them."

The class started whispering when they heard that the mermaids could change their appearance.

"So it's true! That's why it's so hard to see a mermaid."

"Tsk, they are always nonchalant about everything and never helped others. Also, the Sea continent people are cowards who hide inside water."

"No, they are too weak and beautiful that's why they don't come out from the water!"

Some of the students chuckled at this comment but Nine frowned. He just clicked his tongue and looked at the Professor.

Kyle heard the chatting. He also wanted to see a mermaid someday but from the corner of his eyes he saw how Nine and Alec's expressions became sour when everyone badmouthed the mermaids.

Kyle raised his brow but because the Professor silenced the class he forgot about this small thought.

"Class, let's stop the lecture here we will continue tomorrow."

After the professor left, the students started chatting among themselves.

After a small break, they all went to the training ground where Professor Liam was eagerly waiting for them.

"Finally the exams are over and I can start working again."

Liam said with a smile and asked the students to start training while he pointed out their mistakes.

Kyle shuddered a little when he thought about the recent training session he had with Liam. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood in front of a dummy.

He took out his sword and started practicing as well.

His whole day was packed with classes and training.

After a while, Kyle sat on the ground while wiping his sweat with a towel. He gazed at Alec, Carcel, and Nine. The trio was training a few meters away from him with serious expressions.

Lara and Mia were in the long-range training area and for some reason Tray and the black-haired boy were following behind him but unlike before Kyle didn't dislike interacting with others that much.

Maybe he had changed a little after making some friends. Even though they all have their secrets it wasn't something Kyle needed to worry about. He had a big secret himself.

A genuine smile appeared on Kyle's face as he closed his eyes for a while.

'A tiring yet normal day indeed.'

After spending two hours in the training ground, he went back with Nine and cleaned himself before heading straight toward the library.

The old librarian greeted him but Kyle's eyes stopped at a new face.

A tall and slender girl wearing black clothes was working beside the librarian. Her face looked innocent and she was wearing thick glasses on her eyes. She seemed to be in her late twenties.

The girl looked back at Kyle and nodded but her eyes glanced at Bia's body for a second.

'Master finally found an assistant for the librarian.'

Kyle thought inwardly and replied with a nod. He glanced at the old librarian to confirm if it was fine to enter the secret room in front of her.

"It's fine."

After getting a reply he approached the end of the first floor of the library before taking out a familiar crystal and opening the secret room.

Kyle coughed the moment he entered the room. A lot of smoke was rising and he could smell something was burning.

His eyes darted inside the room only to spot an old figure standing in a corner brewing something inside a large bowl.

"Master?"

Elder Han gazed at Kyle and waved his hand. The smoke instantly disappeared.

"Just sit on the chair. I picked some new books about Arrays for you so read them carefully. You can ask me any question you want."

Kyle sighed and just sat down and picked up one of the books present on the table. He would ask some questions here and there while reading.

Elder Han would also lecture him from time to time. Kyle took in all the information and at night he was finally free to go back to his room.

After coming back he ate something with Bia and slumped down on his bed with a tired expression.

Soon, he fell asleep.
