Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352 Chapter 82.1 - What the heart sees

"This bath....It helps a lot...."

Sitting in the bath filled with the recovery herbs, I thought to myself. After the battle, I had returned to my room. At that time, the method I had deployed was correct, and it definitely worked well.

"But, to think that they would go over the case in such a brutal way....It suits their style..."

On the academy forums, there was a post with a bunch of videos. In those videos, sophomore-year students were getting beaten, and the assailant was saying the sophomores were getting whatever they deserved.

From the first look, it was an act of revenge, but after looking at it a little bit more detail, it was evident that this post's main goal was to sow discord.

'Eleven out of fourteen victims were women. And in general, they were the weaker students.'

It made sense for the freshmen to target weaker sophomore-year students since their strengths wouldn't qualify to deal with the high-ranking students. Even if they somehow dealt with them, this would narrow down the investigation range.

This left no loophole.

Also, the fact that women were chosen more was also something that was effective in stirring the emotions of the public. Even though in this world, women were not necessarily weaker than men with the existence of mana and the status window, the idea of courtesy for women was still there.

The reality of this world just worked like that, and it seemed the instigator aimed to use this, too.

'Well, slowly but surely, you will reveal yourself. Then, I will be there to hunt you down.'

With that thought, I stood up from the bath. Of course, to do such a thing, I needed the necessary strength.

"Status."

As I called the status window, the panel appeared.

'My endurance and strength stat has started to catch up.'

I thought to myself. With the constant training with weighted bracelets, it seemed like my stats would return to normal after a while.

That was a good thing since I needed to cover my weaknesses.

'But dealing with an executive is most likely why my stats grew this much.'

Considering my growth speed with training alone, that would make sense. The last time I checked my stats, my growth was still below what I expected, but now it seems like I'm catching up.

'From the looks of it, unless I am dealing with a real demon, I won't get a skill or passive from Bloodline Resonance. I can only absorb some of the energy from the Demon Contractors, and this shows in an increase in my stats.'

I thought inwardly. This reasoning was most likely correct.

Of course, it wasn't the end. I also had gotten an artifact, a pretty special one. frёewebnoѵēl.com

–[Curtain of Darkness]

It was a special artifact that isolated the space from the outside. The sounds and energies would be sealed, making whatever it was that someone was doing, they could do it without being disturbed. Though, I didn't have the necessary time to check for its other abilities.

"Well, it is time for training again."

With my thoughts, I stepped out of the bath and dried myself off. The recovery herbs had worked wonders, soothing my aching muscles and rejuvenating my body after the intense training.

I left my room and went to the training grounds.

"We need to talk."

But before I could reach my destination, a voice stopped my tracks.

A silvery-haired girl stood before me with a certain smile.

<Arcadia City, Golden District>

In a high-altitude office perched atop a towering skyscraper, darkness enveloped the sleek and modern space. The only illumination came from the ambient glow of the city lights filtering through the panoramic windows.

Amidst the dimly lit surroundings, a lone figure sat at his desk, his silhouette outlined against the backdrop of the bustling city skyline. His gaze was fixed on the rain cascading down the windowpane, the rhythmic pattern echoing through the room.

Yet, his eyes were not focused on the rain itself but rather on a vision that played out in his mind's eye.
