Julius soon forgot all about the confrontation with his roommate. He had bigger and more important things to worry about. Things such playing with his new [Quick Step] skill.
During the next several rounds with Gabriel, Julius focused a lot on incorporating the skill into his fighting style. If he was being honest...

Julius had already dropped his Swordsmanship class with Professor Hashen at the end of last week. He wasn’t finding enough benefit in continuing with it.
His talent with a sword wasn’t that great. That was one thing that he learned pretty quickly. In comparison to some of the other students, Julius felt like h...

Reinera POV
How did it all end up that way? She thought to herself bitterly as she stared across the field at Julius. She hadn’t even known he was in her Applied Combat class until just now. She would have never spotted the black-haired boy if she wasn’t actively replaying that entire night...

The boy was breathing much more roughly than he had in the beginning, but he was able to take down the monster without getting injured, so that was a notable accomplishment. There were definitely some reasons for the boy’s initial confidence.
Of course, there were still things that he could work on. But his swordsmans...

The first thought that came to his head when he spotted the princess shooting him looks was whether or not he had done something wrong. However, he quickly assured himself that he hadn’t done anything to attract any notice. If he had, then more people would have been staring at him.
The next thing he thought of was if...

Aubrey walked up to Julius and grabbed his shoulders forcefully. “What did you choose? Please don’t tell me you chose the skill evolution option,” Aubrey started to panic.
“What? That’s not the best option?” Julius tried his best to sound genuinely ignorant.

After they had negotiated for information about the location of his cake supplier, the dinner was much less awkward. They made small talk, learning that Grace was a fellow first-year and that Amelia was a newly hired teaching assistant.
While it was going well, Julius did note that Amelia had made several snide comments...

Amelia had to admit, the princess was right about this place. The food so far had been incredible. It was actually hard to maintain vigilance while still trying to blend in and eat like the rest of the customers because she just wanted to eat the entire time.

Julius tucked away the Sylvan Petal for later use. However, he had to promise to let everyone know when he would be using it so that they could participate or at least observe what happens.

Eventually, the six of them finished up and got everything they needed from the shopping district. It was also perfect timing because whatever Lily had planned was about to start and they had to leave in order to make it.

As a little gift to himself, Julius decided to get some proper sleep in his dorm like a normal student. No more mats or hard stone floors for him. He had moved up in the world and had finally decided to sleep on an actual bed that was soft and plush.
Funnily enough, he didn’t sense his roommate Henry when he arrived. ...

Julius reread the message a couple of times before he stopped. He just had to make sure that he was reading it correctly. Apparently, he now had eleven skill slots instead of the normal ten, which he was very excited about.
He had always suspected that there were ways to increase one’s skill slots. He remembered...

Julius did a double take. He had just evolved his skills into [Armaments of the Arcane] and he certainly wasn’t expecting anything else. Therefore, he was taken by surprise when he got another one so soon.
He took a deep breath to calm and center himself, before taking a look at the notification.

Julius found himself alone in one of the main training facility’s rooms. After the mishap the last time he went to the first-year training room, he wasn’t going to take any more chances. The enchantments of the first-year facilities, weren’t enough to hold up against his current strength.
It made sense as well. Th...

There was still plenty of the rift that Julius hadn’t explored but since he was so worn out, he wasn’t able to continue. There was still a part of him that wanted to try to get his epic skill while he was in the rift as well, but unfortunately, he didn’t think it would be a good idea.
Even Declan agreed with him t...

Julius turned and looked at Declan who was also surprised at the difference the Concept had on his damage output. Declan had been around when Julius was throwing the pebbles before. He saw with his own eyes how Julius was unable to do much more than give the golem some ornaments on its body.

It didn’t take a genius to figure out that Julius had a proclivity for explosions. Whatever may happen, you could count on Julius to find a way to blow something up.

“You want me to take a skill that belonged to a person who got himself killed?” Julius asked disbelievingly.

It took a bit of walking before Julius and Declan encountered a golem. Julius was able to pick it up before it was in sight. The golem was a big mound of rock that looked vaguely humanoid in shape. It had two legs and two arms, but that was where the similarities ended.
It was around ten feet tall and the surface ...
