Life Hunter

When he entered, he instantly saw Arima sitting at a table with Lanya and Night. He then directly headed there and sat down naturally.

Arima smiled at him "What do you want to know?" He just asked while eating.

Arister looked back at him with confused eyes "Why are you like that? Although I didn"t do anything to you, we didn"t meet in the best circ.u.mstances" He said

"It"s true" Arima said "But, I prefer making friends like you, and I don"t have anything to do. Also, you"re quite strong, maybe you could help me later" He answered.

Arister"s eyes widened and then smiled "Fine, then let me ask you. What can you teach me?" He asked and Arima grinned.

In the next ten minutes, Arima started explaining him about Heaven along with the Earthen and Heavenly realms.

When he heard all of it, Arister started thinking "Then, you"re saying that I"m in the first sky of the Earthen realm?" He asked

"Yeah" Arima responded casually and started eating the dessert "One more thing" He said and pointed at the sky "In two months, I"ll most likely fight against an Earthen G.o.d, meaning, a being at the pinnacle of the Earthen realm"

"…What?" Arister uttered, even for him, this kind of information is a bit too much to take casually "You"ll fight an Earthen G.o.d? Why?"

"Well, first, because I want to fight him, and then because he tried to kill me first" Arima answered "He daringly made fall a meteorite me" He said

"Sorry?" Arister felt like he heard wrong "Are you saying that a G.o.d tried to kill you? Why?" He asked, he was surprised, Arima had told him about G.o.ds, and then he said him that one tried to kill him. Wasn"t that dangerous? It"s a G.o.d after all.

"Yeah, well, I did something that attracted his attention at one point and then he attacked me" Arima explained and Lanya groaned.

"Sorry" She said quietly.

Arima smiled and pat her "Like I said, it"s not your fault, there was another way to wake up Chronepsis, but I chose the easiest and fastest one" He said gently.

Arister silently looked at the two "By the way, how do you plan to fight him?" He asked to Arima "I"m sure you"re not going to fight a G.o.d without any preparation, right?"

Arima smiled "I"m working on something that would give me victory, also, I have some trump cards" He said "Well, I"m not sure if Lilis will be there, but in any case, I won"t ask her for help if it isn"t needed" He added.

"That"s quite surprising" Arister said, he already had heard about Lilis "You"re willing to let someone help you if it"s needed" He commented

"Of course, pride and honor aren"t useful if you die with it" Arima said and stood up, he yawned and headed toward his room "See you tomorrow, Arister" He waved his hand and said. Night jumped on his shoulder and Lanya also finished her meal to go sleep.

Arister shrugged, he stood up too and rented a room in this Inn before leaving to sleep too.

"So, what happened?" Lilis asked to Azes

The latter looked back at her "Looks like Karaskan moved" He said and Lilis"s eyes narrowed. When he saw that, Azes sighed "As I thought, Arima did something? To a Seed maybe?" He said

"Yes" Lilis nodded "He destroyed it. Also, I have to add something" She said

Azes frowned "What is it?"

"Arima, he seemed to know about Karaskan, he showed extreme anger against him" She said

"What?" Azes"s frown became even deeper "He lived his whole life in a circuit less world, even if he is a Life Hunter, or even a Death Hunter, he wouldn"t be able to interact with magic or G.o.ds" He said and froze immediately "Wait, did he…"

Lilis nodded "I think a Seed of Chaos was sent into his world, and he received the direct repercussions of that" She speculated

Azes pondered for a moment "Maybe Karaskan was awakened because he felt a Life Hunter"s presence and the latter"s hatred toward him" He said and looked back at Lilis. He extended his hand and light illuminated the place. Azes grasped the source of that light before it vanished.

In his hand now, there was a big and magnificent key, totally white. He then threw it at Lilis "Zesta, head to the Time Garden and look in detail about Arima"s past. I already did it, but I just checked quickly the biggest parts, I never looked at the first half of his life. Now hurry up, the flow of time is mixed in the Garden, I don"t know how long it will take for you to finish your investigation" He said

Lilis looked at the key in her hand then nodded before disappearing. After that, Azes sighed "I hope Karaskan won"t cause too much ruckus for now, I really wanted him to never resurface again. Now, I have another problem beside those stupid High G.o.ds" He said and closed his eyes for a second.

"Seriously, I hope you"ll be ready in time Arima" He uttered.

*******************************************

Back in the normal world. The next day, Arima one more time went to the FDA.

Arima was walking in the corridors with Lanya, while rummaging in his head for ideas of lessons. Then he heard a commotion not far from him. He knew that every time he pa.s.sed in the corridors, students would exclaim and call him. They would even greet him sometimes.

But the voices he was hearing weren"t directed at him. He and Lanya looked behind and saw a beautiful and mature woman walking toward him. The students were making a path for her and some of them would follow her like pets.

She was wearing some casual red clothes, she had black hair and eyes, coupled with her facial features and her figure. She really was a beautiful, on par with Lilis. Just that the latter didn"t act sensual at all in opposite to the former.

When Arima saw that, he sighed in his head "(There was that stereotype too, huh?)" He complained in his mind.

"Hi, Arimane Blade" When that woman reached Arima, she greeted him "I am Velvet Venu" She presented herself. She talked with a really soft and gentle voice. Arima particularly frowned when he heard her voice.

"(Unnatural)" That what he thought when he heard her "What could Miss Venu want with me?" He smiled and said politely. He actually didn"t want to act like that, but his old school habits got the best of him. That was the same with the princ.i.p.al. He laughed bitterly in his head "(Mom, you seriously needed to make me respect teachers like that?)" Lanya and Night looked at him like it was someone else.

While one side was getting irritated at himself, Velvet was surprised by Arima"s att.i.tude and smiled in return "I"d want to talk in private with you, is that okay?" She asked

"No, sorry. I have a cla.s.s to conduct" He said and left directly. He even teleported, not waiting for her to talk. Lanya looked at Velvet and bowed to her. Velvet looked at her

"Bye" Lanya said quickly before teleporting away.

"Eh?" Velvet was left there, completely shocked. She could already hear the voices of the students around her.

"Teacher was rejected?" There were voices like that "She was turned down" And the more she heard it the more she was infuriated and also left in hurry.

*****************************************

Arima and Lanya directly transported themselves in the cla.s.sroom. The latter sat down, Night jumped on the table and laid down like the previous times.

Arima cracked his neck a bit and opened the door. This time, there was fifteen students plus forty. The group of fifteen is the one he picked the last two days, along with Ofia, Lena and Arister. The whole cla.s.s room could welcome eighty students at the same time actually, it"s just Arima who decided to get forty each lesson, because he wanted to leave the place for the group he would choose. The students that were worth mentioning in that group were only two.

One of them was coincidentally the girl who led Arima the first day, her name was Isla and she was around 17 years old, her specialty rested in water magic and she was very smart although a bit too much playful.

The second one was an energetic guy around 16 years old, his name was Irian, although he wasn"t that smart, he had a keen sense and mind for everything that had something to do with combat and survival. His specialty was fire. And he relied a lot on his physical apt.i.tude.

Now, let"s take this occasion to talk about the two royal daughters. Lena was the timid and silent kind. She was smart but a bit reluctant to interact with others. She used wind magic, princ.i.p.ally.

And then there was Ofia, her physical situation wasn"t good since birth but her magic is one of the best there is, from Arima"s opinion. She possesses almost an absolute dominance over Light and can use it really easily and smartly. She"s also the calmest and the most intelligent one in the cla.s.s, capable of understanding things at high speed.

Back to the present. Arima sat down one the desk one more time, when everyone was seated. Of course, even Arister was here in his younger appearance.

"Well, today will be about the basics, one more time" Arima said "I won"t start with magic, because it"s a longer and harder thing to develop and explain. There"s a lot of things to explore on that topic" Arima waved his hand and one more time, the room fell into darkness and a projection appeared.

This time, another figure appeared but this one looked like the representation of the blood vessels in the body, you could also see the bones, the heart and some other organs.

"Like you all know, our body can be trained" Arima waved his hand, the figure he had created transformed into a non-trained figure and slowly started to change from that point, the outline of the muscles was gradually getting better until it stopped when it was a very burly looking figure.

"But there"s limits and sometimes, a body is trained in a wrong way, which could lead to some problems later" Arima said "Now, the second thing we think of when you want to become stronger physically is breaking through levels" Arima returned the projection to a normal man "This is level 1" He said then the figure changed one more time. It became a bit taller, the muscles more refined and even the bones changed.

"This is level two" Arima said and continued to do that until level ten, in the end. The figure had become a lot taller the bones seemed to be bigger and stronger. And strangely, even some organs changed in size, they changed place and even color sometimes "This is the best a normal human can do. The body structure change, allowing it to be able to work with mana, and even without the latter, you could breathe underwater for hours, for example. Most poison and illness also won"t work on you" Arima explained.

"Well, all of this is common knowledge" He said and changed the figure back to something like the fifth level.

When Arima said that it was common knowledge, the students shook their heads silently, although they knew that the body changed along with breakthroughs and also that it could function with mana, they never saw that evolution as precisely as they saw it in the projection.

"Now let"s talk about the main point, which is physical strengthening, I think that I can teach you a lot about it" Arima smirked and said.
