Looking at how focused Aditya was when Tobias couldn’t help but sigh. ‘Compare to Aditya calling myself a genius feels like a funny joke.’
Sitting on the floor, with a special pen that was made from rare metal, Aditya carefully engraved runes on the golden spear. His movements were a little stiff but very elegant to watch. Watching him draw runes on the spear gave Tobias a peaceful feeling.
Over the years Tobias had hundreds of students but non of them could even come near Aditya. Just in one day, he has learned more than what his students can learn in 3 months. His progression speed even terrified Tobias.
Tobias was an old Vampire who has lived long enough to serve 3 generations of the Onard noble household. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that he has experienced what life has to offer. He has seen countless geniuses who rose and fell. He has seen countless Kingdoms fall in his long age. He has met an uncountable number of people. Living such a long life, Tobias thought that nothing in this world can shock or surprise him anymore. But he was wrong.
Teaching Aditya was like a complete new experience to him. He has seen just how fast his mind was. ‘If he continues to learn at this frightening speed, it won’t be long before he advances to 3rd-order and even reaches higher-order.’
Tobias managed to master 3-star rune spells a few centuries ago. Even after a few centuries of learning, he was still far away from being able to make 4-star rune spells.
Sigh!
‘I guess this is the difference between a heavenly genius and an average talent.’ In fact, Tobias was not sad. He was rather excited. With the frightening speed at which Aditya was comprehending rune spells, in a few years he will reach 4-star. ‘At that time, maybe I can ask him to teach me and guide me.’
“I will leave now. Tomorrow, come to this same room after having breakfast.” Aditya nodded his head without paying any attention to Tobias. His full focus was on drawing runes on the golden spear.
Tobias once again sighed. If only he had the same comprehension ability as Aditya then he could have reached his peak a long time ago.
After leaving Aditya alone, Tobias on his way to the destroyed training ground met Adam. “Uncle Tobias, are you done with teaching the kid?” The team of 100 earth mages was fixing the destroyed training ground so that the soldiers could resume their training as soon as possible.
“Yes, Aditya told me that he was going somewhere.”
“How is that kid? Does he really have a talent for runes?” Adam casually asked. Adam respected Tobias like his real uncle. The man had taken care of Adam when his father was away. Tobias was one of those people that Adam trusted with his whole life as he knew Tobias would never betray him or his family.
Sigh!
“Why are you sighing?” Adam asked with a confused look.
“You know I always used to think that I was the greatest rune genius that this era had ever produced but today I found out just how na?ˉve my thoughts were.”
“What exactly happened?” This was the first time Adam had seen his uncle sighing in depression.
Instead of replying he put his right hand on Adam’s left shoulder and said. “You have no idea how just lucky you were to find this boy as your daughter’s future husband.”
“Uncle, can you please explain?”
“That boy’s talent in rune even surpasses mine by a wide margin. How should I even describe it? That boy is like an abyss or some sort of black hole. No matter how much you feed him, he will keep asking for more. He was learning so fast it was almost as if he was devouring knowledge. He learned the things that would normally take 3 months or maybe even more for my students to learn.”
At this moment even Adam didn’t know how much his heart was shocked. “At this rate, forget about 14 days, 10 days would be more than enough for him to able to make 3-star rune spells.”
Both men for a long time said nothing. They simply just stood there. Even though both of them looked very calm, their hearts were in turmoil, in a deep state of shock. After about 10 minutes of silence, Adam sighed. “Uncle Tobias, please make sure no one learns of this news.” Given how frightening his talent in rune was, Aditya could potentially be targeted by Adam’s enemies.
“Don’t worry. Even if I lose my life, I won’t utter even a single word about Aditya.”

Meanwhile, Aditya had no idea what sort of genius he was. Even if he did, he wouldn’t even care about it.
After about 2 hours, he finally was done with engraving the runes on the 3-star golden spear. “Finally I am done.” Aditya held the golden spear in his hand as he looked at the small runes that he engraved on the golden spear.
[Rune Monarch class Progression to 3rd order: – 9.1%]
“Wonderful.” With instant learning and adaptation combined with the Rune Monarch class, Aditya was able to comprehend runes at a speed that no one in the whole world can compare to.
“I should stop now.” Aditya remembered his appointment with the princess. After stretching his body he returned to his room and took a long shower before getting ready. Since Aditya was going on a date with her, he had to put some extra afford into his clothes.

“Who is he?”
“He is hot”
“I bet he already has a girlfriend. A man like him would have hundreds of females chasing after him.”
“No matter what you say, you have to admit that he looks very handsome.” Standing before a 9 meters big statue of a man who was holding a sword, Aditya was waiting for Julia.
He had come 20 minutes earlier and now he was simply waiting for the princess to come. He wasn’t bothered about the attention he was receiving.
“Move out of the way.”
The people moved out of the way to make space for the carriage to come. No one dared block the carriage as the carriage had the symbol of Onard’s noble household on it. The carriage stopped in front of Aditya.
“You’re early” Julia said as she opened the carriage window and looked at Aditya.
She was very satisfied with the way Aditya dressed. Today he was wearing a black suit and leather shoes.
“Hop on.” Aditya nodded and entered the carriage while the crowd stared at Aditya with a dumbfounded look.
After entering the carriage, Aditya found 3 girls and 3 handsome-looking men inside the carriage. Everyone was staring at him.
The interior of the carriage was big as a normal room. The interior had several couches placed on it. The floor was covered with a white carpet. In the middle, there was a table that had various kinds of snacks placed on top of it.
“Come and sit here.” Aditya raised an eyebrow and secretly wondered what this girl was thinking. He went ahead and sat next to Julia on one of the couches.
“Everyone this is Aditya, my fiance.”
“Aditya, let me introduce you to my friends. Her name is Kayla and the person sitting next to her is her boyfriend. His name is David.” Sitting on the right side, Aditya looked at the girl named Kayla.
She had short shoulder-length orange color hair that she tied in a ponytail. Just like Julia, she was also wearing a half-sleeved orange color dress that reached her knee. She had orange pupils and she was around the same height as Julia.
Her boyfriend a 6 feet tall elf. His long pointy elf ears kind of attracted Aditya’s attention. David had blond hair. He was slim and was wearing a white suit. He has around 25 years old.
“This is Monica, my childhood friend. And this is her boyfriend Lukas.” Sitting on the opposite couch, Monica and her boyfriend Lukas nodded their heads at Aditya with small smiles on their faces.
Lukas was a Peak 2nd-order cultivator. He just like David was also an elf. But while David had blond hair, Lukas had pitch black hair and black pupils.
Sitting next to Lukas, Monica was a beautiful-looking girl with tan skin. She also had long black hair that she tied in a ponytail just like Layla and Julia.
“And this is Naomi and her boyfriend Luis.”
“Hello!” Aditya politely greeted them.
Just like Kayla and Monica, Naomi was also around 20 years old. She had white pale skin and red eyes. With a glance, Aditya knew that Naomi was a pure-blooded vampire. She had long hair red that matched her red pupils.
Pure-blooded Vampires are stronger compared to normal Vampires. Aditya heard that every Pure blooded vampire with born with racial skills that keep getting stronger with each level. In the society of Vampires, it is said the Pure Blooded vampires have the second highest position after Royal Vampires.
Her boyfriend Luis was around the same height as Aditya. Luis had pale blue eyes and black hair. Among everyone, Luis’s cultivation was above everyone. He was a beginner 3rd-order cultivator.
‘Luis looks around my age but he is already a beginner 3rd-order cultivator. I guess he is one of those geniuses of the northwestern region of the continent.’ Aditya was more interested in knowing why Lukas had black hair and black pupils while normal elves have blond hair and green pupils.
“I apologize in advance if my question hurts anyone’s feelings. I am just asking it because I am curious. Why are Mr. Lukas’s hair and pupil color black?”
