Chapter 13 Plans Set In Motion

After thinking about the Academy and the plot, Rain was slightly irritated.

'Okay. Let's first calm down.' Rain didn't want to affect his thinking with all of this stuff. So he started trying to calm his mind. With help of his calm mind skill soon all of the useless thoughts disappeared from his mind.

...

After calming himself, Rain made his way to the library. As he walked down the long hallway, he could feel his heart rate slowing down and his breathing becoming more relaxed. He knew his Calm mind skill was working.

Finally, he arrived at the entrance to the library and pushed the door open, stepping inside.

'Oh… Library sure is big here, huh.'

Rain exclaimed after entering the library.

Holmes Family's head also has some perks. After all, nobody works for free.

The main building has a Library, training ground, entertainment area, and many facilities.

There is also a large mansion there. You can think of it as a small palace and only the family head & his family lives in the main building.

So Rain, as a son of the current family head can use these facilities as long as he wants.

In the past, Rain spent most of his time in the training area. And he rarely came to the library. It's not like he is some idiot or musclehead. It's just he wanted to train and increase his rank.

As the sole library of the Holmes Family. It was quite big. It has more books than even the city library, which Rain often read in his previous life.

The library was quiet and still, with rows of books lining the shelves and a few scattered tables and chairs.

The musty smell of old books filled the air, and the only sounds were the soft rustling of pages turning and the occasional whisper of someone searching for a particular volume.

Rain walked down one of the aisles, running his fingers along the spines of the books as he scanned the titles. He felt a sense of calm wash over him, surrounded by the peaceful atmosphere of the library.

He selected a book from the shelf and settled down in one of the chairs, losing himself in the words on the page.

Rain soon passed by some bookshelves and picked some books.

There were very few people in the library. Although, they were slightly surprised after seeing Rain. But after taking a small glance they started reading their books again.

Rain was not bothered by this.

He quietly sat in the corner of the library and kept reading books about basic studies by himself.

The books, Rain was reading had subjects that he learned in his childhood. It's because he just wanted to rephrase everything he learned from childhood.

In this world, after a child gets 10 years old they will have their coming age ceremony.

This coming-of-age ceremony marks a significant milestone in their lives and serves as a reminder of the responsibilities that come with adulthood.

For many families, the coming age ceremony also signifies the beginning of a rigorous education for their children. High-class families understand the importance of education and the opportunities it can provide, and they spare no expense in ensuring their children receive the best education possible.

They enroll their children in prestigious schools that are known for their academic excellence and often hire private tutors to supplement their education at home.

The elite education provided to these children is not only focused on academic subjects, but also on practical skills such as public speaking, leadership, and social etiquette.

Although sometimes it places too much pressure on the children, they get crushed under the hopes of their parents and society.

There are many subjects like Mathematics, Science, Language, Environment, History, and the Arts that are considered essential for a well-rounded education. It is almost the same as Rain's previous life. This continues for 5 years.

As children enter their teenage years, they begin to experience a profound transformation.

At the age of 15, most children awaken to their magical abilities and start absorbing Mana into their bodies.

This is a natural process that is closely monitored by the government, as it is important to ensure that children are properly trained in the use of their powers.

Once their magical abilities have been awakened, the children are sent to high school to continue their studies. However, the curriculum is very different from that of ordinary schools.

While there is still a strong emphasis on academic subjects such as mathematics, science, and language, the theory portion gradually decreases as students begin to focus more on practical training.

This practical training involves learning how to wield weapons according to their natural talents. Some students may be skilled with a sword, while others may prefer a spear, axe, or bow.

The training is intense and challenging, but it is also highly rewarding, as students begin to develop their bodies and magical abilities.

With Mana in their bodies, students develop faster than ordinary people and can achieve feats that would be impossible for others. They become stronger, faster, and more agile.

From a timespan of 15 years to 20 years.

Students complete learning about all advanced subjects. It is just like a college graduate in Rain's previous world, but in this world because of 'MANA' people learn fast, so it's not that hard for them.

After seeing all the surrounding books, Rain decided that he will study all theory portions and also check if there is any difference between the game and this world.

He will also do some physical training, in his room with artifacts and potions, which would increase his training speed.

Rain estimated that he might be able to reach rank E- if he goes all out. Although it can't match his previous rank, that's still better than nothing.

Rain knew that he didn't have much time. If he somehow got involved in the plot, it will be more troublesome than anything.

Just like that, Rain started his studies and his training schedule.

….

….

Rain started studying in the library most of the time of the day. As he studied more at the library he found out that some of the subjects were the same as the subjects of his previous world. As a scholar student, Rain was quite a good student in his previous life.

By the way, he is also a good student in his current life. So studying was not much difficult for him.

With his memories and the effect of a Calm mind, he also read almost all manuals about Swordsmanship and Mana control.

He didn't even rest at night and pulled all-nighters.

At night, Rain started doing physical training and Mana control practice, which greatly helped him in raising his stats.

Whenever he got tired, he did some meditation and drank fatigue recovery potions. With that, his stamina recovered faster. When his stamina recovered, he started doing his physical training.

And with artifacts and growth potions (It only works in low ranks) Rain did his training earnestly.

While he was doing all this, he ordered Mark to do some things for him.

At the current moment, Rain was training in his room. After doing it for hours he was exhausted. He sat on his bed and thought.

'I am looking forward to how Mark works on it.' There was a mischievous smile on his face.
