Chapter 67: My training in the academy (2)



"Magnus, I know what you want to ask me. Learning more skills may appear as a good thing but in fact, it is not. Too many skills would leave you being a mediocre person", she said.

Oh, Angela, what you said is true but that doesn\'t apply to me. The problem is that I can\'t just say that to her. So I need to pull up something or else the chances of getting her would reduce even further.

"Professor, it\'s not like I am trying to learn everything but I am trying to cover my weakness. I am a spellcaster and that means, if someone closes the distance between us, they can end me. So what I need is how to survive in close combat", I said.

"Don\'t let anyone get close to you?" she said.

"Hahaha", laughed lightly before speaking again, "Professor, that was a ridiculous thing to say".

"Why?" she raised her eyebrows to know the reason why I was contradicting her.

"I am a human and though I don\'t mingle much, it was not as if I would like to bury myself in a room forever. There would always be people whom I have to get close to", I said with a smirk on my face.

Her eyes changed, "Even though to learn everything to fight close combat professionals, you can\'t succeed in defeating them and also wipe that smirk off your face".

"Mrs. Blazewood, you misunderstood me. What I said was to survive not to defeat my opponent", I corrected her, without smirking this time.

She smiled and nodded, satisfied with my answer.

"Okay, I need to prepare before we start. I\'ll inform you about that later. We shall see when we can allocate time to teach you hand combat arts", she said and left after that.

Now, it is right on track. I can train under her and at the same time have the chance to increase her favorability towards me. Then it would be time to...hehehe.

The day went by and what we did was training all day.

First Angela brought us to the training center and let us train by ourselves. She would come and speak with each student one by one at a time, giving them hints about how to increase their strength.

The only break we got was two hours to get some rest and eat lunch in the noon. Excluding that there was no rest till dark. For me, it was a breeze because my stamina is very high even when compared with those of Shield Professionals.

Since I didn\'t show that high value when I was tested during the entrance examination, I had to act like I was drained. So I can only train, taking short rests in the middle. Showing them that I can recover faster is not a bad thing.

They would just link to that it was my hidden talent or something. There were skills that could improve stamina recovery or mana recovery but a person would naturally have those skills, those it was not shown on the status panel.

So there was no problem for me to train for long, as long as I took adequate rest in the middle. This way I can use the best of the facilities and also create a way into Angela\'s mind. As a teacher, she would definitely be willing to teach someone who was not only talented but also diligent in training.

After all, talent does not always decide the future. It plays a role in deciding what step one can reach but that was it. Only hard work plays the main role for that to happen.

So even though students with talents are favored, it wouldn\'t be always the case, at least I assume that was not the case in the eyes of Angela.

If she favored talents, then she wouldn\'t have acted like that from the first minute. She showed contempt towards almost all of the students. It wasn\'t just the boys but the girls were also included in this.

The girls showed jealousy as soon as the boys\' attention turned towards Angela. Then those girls turned their attention towards me. I don\'t think that she missed those little details. Those girls weren\'t as capable as me in hiding those expressions.

Anyway, from what I saw and observed about her, she belongs to the category of people who would favor people who work hard.

Hmm, thinking about that, I feel like there is something wrong with this situation.

What might that be?

Wait a minute.

In those web novels, the protagonist would get the favor of some teacher and improve a lot. Most of the time, the teacher would be female, who would be his future love interest.

Hmm, that does mean I would fight with a protagonist.

Humph, I am not afraid of some little jerks. Though I want to live peacefully and not involve myself in unnecessary conflicts, that doesn\'t mean I am afraid of facing others.

If that protagonist is that idiot Dorian, I would end him once and for all, so that I wouldn\'t face problems in the future. From the way he was looking at me all day, I think he was having some bad thoughts about me.

It would be best to eradicate such a problem, sooner than later.

Now, let\'s rest for the night. It is going to be a long day from tomorrow. This was because I had to go to the dungeon.

Angela\'s class is only once a week. That would be the day that we can use the facilities. The other days were assigned to other classes. There would be a day gap in between, when anyone can use the facilities, except that it would cost points.

Before leaving Angela informed us about that.

It was not just the facilities but also the food. The academy would provide basic food, three times a day but if you want nutritious food, you can only pay for that.

I need that nutritious food. There is some food in the space ring that my mother packed for me that would be over in a few days. If I can\'t get that food, there won\'t be any changes in my STR, STA, AGI, or DEX attributes.

So I have to visit the dungeon from tomorrow.
