Chapter 36 Test

At this moment, while he thought he was definitely alone, Sophia had snuck into the training hall the moment he entered. She had come to confirm her doubts and the secret he was hiding, she had always known there was something off about Bernard from the moment he openly rejected the military even when he said he had no symbiote beast.

Even though the other people might have believed that crap of lies, there were two bodies that wouldn't believe it, the military and herself definitely wouldn't.

Sophia had carefully followed behind him making sure to use every means at her disposal to make her movements silent.

At this moment she watching, waiting for what he would do after he had activated the testing bots.

"Okay, let's start.' Bernard took a deep breath, looking around him one last time before he ran towards the laser bots who immediately began firing at him, just like before this consisted of two tests of his agility and strength.

When the laser beams finally arrived in front of him, Bernard could have sworn they appeared to be slow for the first time in his eyes, they weren't too fast for his eyes nor were his eyes failing to catch up with their movements like before, this went on for like 10.1 seconds before he was finally shot in the leg making him wince in pain, as he got more serious to punch the mannequin in order to vent his fit of rage.

Sophia who had been watching from behind was surprised but far from impressed, she was confused and curious but at the same time doubtful, she still thought there was something Bernard was still hiding and that was what she wanted to know, so she decided to wait for a little longer and watch him secretly.

After he was done with the agility part of the test, Bernard had used all his strength to punch the target making it vibrate for much longer than it did previously, compared to how he wasn't able to make a sound previously Bernard felt a bit happy but wasn't that much impressed, he was confused he didn't know if the fault was from himself or system since it didn't reveal the name of the skill making him confused about how he could activate it.

The last time he had unlocked a skill the system sent him a notification he could use the skill just by saying activate beside the skill, however, when he unlocked this new skill he realized the system didn't reveal the name this made him confused and curious at the same time, but thought maybe he hadn't met the requirement to use the skill or he hadn't really completed the quest, he had come up with such hypothesis when he remembered that there was something he saw beside the completion of the optional quest.

Realizing this, made him relieved at least the fault wasn't from himself neither was it from the system, with this Bernard took a few seconds break before dashing towards the laser bots again at full speed. Compared to the last time where Bernard had barely managed to pass the test and was sweating bullets like some sort of criminal on the loose, he was much more relaxed with his mind stable enough to calculate which step to take next.

Finally, when the test was over, Bernard took the test pad and realize he did at least two times better than before unlike in the test field.

Even though Bernard wasn't able to test the new skill, he was pretty satisfied with himself and the results he got, he figured it was due to the fact he wasn't feeling any sort of discomfort, and his stats wasnt halved.

After switching off the machines by putting them on shut down mode, Bernard looked at the training platform one more time, since there was nothing left for him to do, and with him, almost late for curfew he had rushed back to the dorm.

Whereas the moment he left, Sophia's figure could gradually be seen as she became quite visible on her face was a thoughtful expression, she had stayed hidden the whole time and definitely had also seen everything that had happened.

This made her come to a conclusion she couldn't dismiss, Bernard was hiding something.

She didn't know what it was but she guessed it was definitely something big, she couldn't figure out what it was nor understood why he was hiding his strength in the academy.

While she thought whatever he was doing was playing a wolf in sheep's clothing, she was confident he wouldn't be able to hide it for too long, the moment he realized in the academy a rank 1 student without any sort of powerhouse was akin to trash.

She thought he was a fool, However, there was this thought in her mind that stuck out like a sore thumb only when she remembered his annoying attitude.' a secret heir of aboriginals, if he truly was then I can't report back home at the moment since the military must have been aware of this aspect and the aboriginals who had secretly given birth to him must also be keeping a watchful eye over their heir, cautious and afraid the other aboriginals might realize they have broken their pact.'

Sophia thought to herself inwardly, the more she thought the more she realized just how serious this was, after thinking for a while she realized there might be some use for him in her plans.

Secretly returning to her dorm, she decided henceforth she would keep a watchful eye on Bernard and everything he does.
