Chapter 462 New male lead - Rakka
Chapter 462 New male lead - Rakka
"Later… when they graduate, they will face not only nobles and royalty… They will also face criminals, monsters, and individuals who disregard the rules.
"The academy does this so that they can develop their competitiveness and their ability to think tactically, strategize, and survive in the wild."
"That's why, after graduating from this academy, the students here can survive on their own no matter what environment they are in."
Lathel was a bit surprised when he heard that. He thought this place would be an academy for nobles, so everything would be easy, like an amusement park.
However, everything was completely opposite of what he thought. The students in this place compete with each other even more fiercely than in the adventure centre.
At the Adventurer Centre, adventurers also have time to think about whether they should take a certain quest or not.
Here, they don't have time to think. When the students saw the mission posted on the mission board, they immediately rushed to compete like a swarm of bees seeing a rare flower in the forest.
"So…" Lathel said a little worriedly: "So what should I do to be in the top 10 people with the most contribution points?"
Mody smiled and pointed towards another mission board. However, around that board, it was quite deserted, with very few people standing there.
"That is…"
"The mission board has a high level of difficulty." Mody explained: "The missions here are divided into many different difficulty levels; the lowest is Rank F, and the highest is Rank A."
"That table includes quests with a difficulty of Rank C or higher. Those quests are very difficult; even high-level adventurers or students who are about to graduate cannot do them."
"Many people have cooperated together, by forming a team, but the highest difficulty quest they have ever completed was Rank B. No one has been able to complete a Rank A quest so far."
As soon as Mody finished speaking, a skinny young man appeared, walked in front of the high-difficulty mission board, and stared at the missions above.
In contrast to the students who were trying to grab the quest notices on the low-level quest board, that young man appeared unbothered.
With the temperament of a king, he looked down on everything. His body was skinny, and his skin was pale, like an anaemic patient.
However, his eyes were filled with arrogance, as if he were truly a king, and this frightened some of the students.
The young man had brown hair and wore light clothes like a swordsman, but over that, he wore a magician's robe.
"That is…" Mody frowned.
Lathel saw that and knew something was wrong, so she asked: "Is something wrong, Manager Mody?"
Mody shook his head and sighed: "No, he's just a stupid person."
"Hm…" Lathel frowned, feeling that there was definitely something wrong with this, and asked: "Is it related to that young man?"
Mody sighed and nodded: "That's right. He... okay, you don't need to worry about him. There's no way to save him anymore; he..."
"No…" Lathel smiled and said: "I'm a little interested in him. While everyone was fighting over simple tasks, he was observing the more difficult ones. Moreover… he was alone."
"That… he…" Mody sighed and said: "Okay, I can tell you, just… don't come into contact with him too much."
"His name is Rakka. Actually, he wasn't always like this, but... Okay, I'll tell you from the beginning."
"Rakka is the prince of a kingdom more than 100 miles away from our empire. That kingdom is not part of the Empire's territory, but Rakka chose this magic academy to study."
"At first, he was just like other normal students. His ability and talent were not good, but he tried very hard and worked hard."
"However, a year ago, his kingdom was destroyed by a group of monsters. In just one night, nearly 100,000 people died, and he was the only one left alive because he was in the academy at that time."
"From then on, he became a madman. At first, he cried for revenge; every day he screamed constantly."
"The academy couldn't keep him, so it decided to let him leave. However, three months later, he returned, seemingly calmer.
"But… he seems to have become a different person. He no longer works hard or tries to study anymore, and he is also no longer humble and friendly. Instead, he is extremely arrogant, and he is always looking at everyone with disdain."
"He even said he was the Fire Abyss's Lord. Occasionally he would look up at the sky and curse in an extremely impolite manner."
"Finally, everyone concluded that it was because his entire kingdom was dead and he was the only one left alive that he went crazy."
Mody spoke as he felt sorry for such a fate. A normal person, a hard-working young man who was always trying, eventually went crazy.
Lathel frowned. He didn't feel like everything was that simple. He felt... that the young man was very suspicious.
'Maybe… It's time for me to use the new function I've been requesting from Dandite.'
That's right, when making his request, Lathel asked Dandite to give him a new function installed inside the system.
That function is 'investigation'.
The most Lathel has is not gold coins but worship points. With so many points, he can't use them, which is extremely unfortunate.
However, luckily, Dandite gave him a function so he could use this excess resource.
[Ding! Do you want to pay 100,000 worship points to see Rakka's information?]
"Agree!" Lathel said silently in his heart. After all, he currently has more than one million worship points, which came from the people who worshipped him while still in the trial space.
Besides, the homeless people that Claire was supporting also provided him with a lot of worship points.
…
Name: Rakka (The soul of Fire Abyss's Lord has taken over this body.)
Role: Male lead
Natural talents: fire (E), wood (E)
Locked talents: Sun Flame (A), Darkness Flame (A), Flame Dragon (A)
Description 1: Rakka, after returning to his kingdom, saw that everything was left with only a pile of ashes and corpses. Because he was so sad, he committed suicide.
Right after he died, The Fire Abyss's Lord's soul came here from another dimension and took over this body.
Description 2: Fire Abyss's Lord… To view this information, 10 million worship points are required.
…
Lathel frowned; he knew the new function was not omnipotent. The stronger the male protagonist's talents and abilities, the more Workship Points he will spend.
10 million worship points were needed to see the Fire Abyss's Lord's information; that's enough to show how strong he is.
Lathel had also read about this motif. The male protagonist is usually the lord of a certain world, but because he failed to break through to a higher level, he died.
After death, the soul passes through the barrier between different worlds, goes to another world, and takes over the body of a useless person.
Then comes the process of going from being a useless person, despised by others, constantly flexing and face-slapping, to becoming an invincible existence in the new world. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Of course, the male lead also attracts many beautiful women.
This type of male protagonist is very scary because he has a huge amount of knowledge, from preparing medicinal herbs to cultivating skills, talents, etc.
Lathel began to feel short of breath. He only hoped that this type of male protagonist was not his enemy. At least, if Lathel and Rakka cannot become friends, Lathel hopes Rakka will not become his enemy.
"I know… it seems that's a pitiful person." Lathel nodded and said, then prepared to leave with Mody.
Lathel also did not want to come into contact with Rakka; after all, he is just a small supporting character, and the less contact there is with the male protagonist, the better.
When Lathel had just taken three steps, suddenly, a voice filled with arrogance like that of a lord rang out.
"Wait!"
When Lathel heard that voice, although it was an extremely strange one, he knew who the owner of that voice was.
Rakka looked towards Lathel and Mody, then slowly approached them. Mody frowned and said: "Rakka, what do you want? This is a new student at this academy; I won't allow you to be rude."
"Huh!" Rakka said contemptuously: "New student? Here, everyone is equal; that is the law that this academy has made. Are you saying that he is a high-ranking noble, so you want to make me kneel down to greet him?"
"You…" Mody was angry and wanted to say something, but Lathel immediately spoke up.
He looked at Rakka, and upon seeing those eyes filled with strength and arrogance, he immediately believed... Rakka's soul had disappeared.
At this time, Rakka is the Fire Abyss's Lord.
"This is our first time meeting." Lathel smiled friendly and said: "My name is Lathel; is there a problem?"
Rakka crossed his arms over his chest and glanced at Lathel's friendly face. His eyes seemed to be searching for all the information, making Lathel feel a bit uncomfortable.
After a while, Rakka said: "I think your talent is not bad. Do you want to become my subordinate?"
Lathel: "…"
Mody: "..."
