Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Chapter 3.1 - Arcadia Hunter Academy

Returning to the Academy was not a hard task. Since I had been unconscious until very early in the morning, when I finally reached the train station, the morning train services had already started.

Thus, hopping into the first train, I immediately reached the academy grounds.

"You are back quite early." It was the same gate guard that had sent me, so I just nodded to him in response and entered.

'6 A.M is Quite early for the students to be awake. Especially on the weekends.' I thought while walking quietly to my room. 'Then, I guess we can use the training facilities.'

I disliked being in other people's presence, especially while I was training or studying, so most of the time, I refrained from using the general facilities in crowded times.

Looking at the environment, I felt comfortable and uncomfortable at the same time. The tranquil ambiance of morning imbued the academy. The cool morning breeze, the empty roads that students had yet to fill…. I found comfort in that solace. But at the same time, the shining sunlight washing over me made me feel like I was exposed….

However, my eyes didn't pass the details over my sight… There were some drinks that were left on the ground… Some leftovers of food or some faint traces of fishy smell…

'No matter where you are, teenagers are still teenagers.' I thought, seeing the traces of nail marks on the tree….

All those information was something that I had not seen before, which showed how important my trait, Perceptive Insight, was.

But, none of their adolescent life mattered to me as I entered my room. After all, I had no right to live such a life.

After returning to my room and changing my clothes to light-hearted ones, I started thinking about how I should train my body and which path I needed to take.

'First, I should buy some products to make an increased training efficiency mixture.' I thought. It was a pretty common thing in the game for the veteran players to make their own potions. Since the game boasted quite a lot of details, instead of buying the general potions, making your own potion was a lot better most of the time for the detailed efficiency.

But, knowing which material to use for which effect was essential. This is why it was mostly used by veterans or those that liked to venture into the forums or wikis. And I was one of them.

Not everyone liked to delve too much into details, as they were some that just liked the fact of action or the combat mechanics.

'For the time being, using too advanced potions will do more harm than good. I need to push my body to its limits first.' But, of course, no matter how good you were at the potioneering, in the end, being natural was the best.

'Then, let's start with this one.' Choosing the potion that I wanted to go with, I ordered the ingredients on the internet. 'At least they are not that expensive.' I thought.

The mixture was a blend of ingredients that came from the dungeons and was known for their ability to enhance the circulation of blood, physical performance, and stamina.

Looking at my bank account, I saw 783 Valer was left. 'I also need to make money.' I thought.

No matter where you were, money was the most important thing in one's life. This applied more where you were in a world where dangers lurked everywhere and where strength was essential most of the time.

'But, I first need to build up my strength.'

Thinking that, I grabbed my equipment and left my room…

As I arrived at the training grounds, an imposing and tall building stood before me. A hub of activity and growth within the academy.

From the outside alone, it was pretty obvious that the amount of funds poured into the academy was enormous.

In a way, that was pretty normal, considering the students here were the future protectors of humanity.

Entering the building, a calm environment greeted me. Since it was still fairly early in the morning, there were not many students inside, aside from some hard workers that could be seen training.

The training building contained quite a lot of sections and segments for students to train efficiently.

Combat Arena – A vast, open space adorned with formations to protect students from injuring themselves severely. You could see some seniors fighting amongst themselves with sparks flying through everywhere.

Archery range – A dedicated area for rangers, complete with targets at varying distances.

Seeing the archery range, a thought arose within me. 'My skills are also suited for being a ranger.' I thought.

I hadn't considered it before since I had always been a close combatant, but my skills and my trait are much more suited to being a ranger. 'In the description, [Lunar Enigma} says amplifying projectiles with moon energy.'

'That means I can imbue arrows or throw projectiles with my mana. And my [Keen Eye] skill also enables me to have good eyesight.'

I thought. Just from these skills alone, I was suited for becoming a ranger. 'But, let's see my Trait first.' In a way, that might not be how it looked, and judging without knowing did not make any sense.
