Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 Chapter 39.4 - No title

"Hmm….Certainly not bad."

I was now standing in the room I was assigned to. With the increase in my school ranking, I was now given a better room than my previous one.

If, at first, it was a simple room with only a small library and a table to study, now it was a lot bigger and fresher.

The facilities weren't that different, but even it being more spacious alone made it better than everything.

'But, that Trevor bastard. What is his goal?'

After Maya had left, I trained until evening. But something had been bothering me.

It was evident that Trevor was targeting me; I had confirmed it with my own eyes. But, the reason remained unknown.

'What could possibly have made him target me?'

Now, was there a need to understand why he was targeting me, you might ask? Of course, there wasn't. After all, the moment he decided to target me, he became my enemy.

And he was also a villain in the game, meaning he was already possibly inclined to be evil.

'He even leaked his intent.'

Killing intent or murderous intent of a Hunter would form eventually. After all, those who had wandered on the border of death would become accustomed to it naturally.

However, even then, there were different types of murderous intents, and from those types, one would be able to tell what kind of person the owner was.

For instance, those who had fought with monsters all the time would have had a more savage intent since it represented the enemies and foes they fought and killed.

But at the same time, those who had fought and killed humans would have a different type of intent.

It wouldn't be as savage but would be something more hideous.

'I could feel the difference even on myself.'

The moment I had killed a human, be it demonic or not, I knew something had changed inside me. Such a change had never occurred whenever I fought with monsters or killed them.

'Talk about hypocrisy.'

Just because they didn't talk in the same way as we did or looked in the same way, none of us felt the guilt of taking a life. Of course, that didn't mean what we did was wrong. This is a battle of survival, and nature never cares about how one feels.

In any case, at the end of the day, if a person kills humans, they change, and that becomes evident the more they do it.

You can argue that it takes a toll on their consciousness, or they lose their conscience slowly, but in the end, they change.

'And I am certain that Trevor is on the latter side.'

From his intent and dark aura oozing from him alone, I could easily say he killed people before.

'I even felt like I had sensed Demonic Energy from him.'

I wasn't sure about that, but something inside me was telling me that Trevor was already associated with Demonic Humans.

'If that is the case, should I just kill him?'

And, if he was associated with demons, that meant he needed to die.

'But, it won't be easy.'

He was inside the academy, and even though he wasn't the first rank, he was still a senior with a high ranking.

That meant his stats were probably above the normal. Adding the fact of the possible negative results that would come after I killed him, it wouldn't be a good idea right now.

'I need proof.'

If I had just killed someone just because they decided to spread bad rumors about me and targeted me for some reason, then I would become a random murderer out there.

A murderer who killed others out of his own pleasure. If possible, I wanted to avoid that the most since that wouldn't make me any different.

'Let's see what you are planning, Trevor Philips.'

What was going to happen with his life now depended on his future actions and my judgment.

'In any case, now is not the time to focus on this guy.'

After all, with the curriculum changing, everything became a mess, and the future became a lot harder to predict, which meant one simple thing.

'I need to be ready for any possible changes to the story.'

Just like that, I slowly left my room and made my way to the training grounds once again.

*******

SWOOSH! BOOM!

Inside the place reserved for the academy cadets who wanted to train against monsters, a young girl could be seen blasting a bunch of artificial monsters.

Irate flames danced at the tips of Irina's fingers as she unleashed her anger upon the artificial monsters in the training room.

BOOM! SMASH!

The air crackled with the intensity of her magic, and each blast from her hands sent the mechanical creatures flying.

"Frustrating idiots!" Irina muttered through gritted teeth, her fiery hair swirling with each forceful motion. She attacked with a ferocity that seemed to defy the very nature of the training room, leaving behind a trail of scorched marks on the floor.

BOOM!
