As soon as I leave the greenhouse,

A transparent blue screen appeared on my face.

[You have failed]

[<Relentless Pursuer> will now be removed from your skills]

As I read it, I then felt a gutwrenching pain in my chest.

It instantly made me fall to my knees.

The agony was almost like a part of my soul was being ripped apart.

I wanted to scream so badly,

But I held it all in, clutching my chest, enduring the misery I was feeling.

After a while, the pain was now slowly subsiding.

[<Relentless Pursuer> Has now been removed]

I try to slowly breathe yet my legs were still shaking.

Then another transparent screen appeared before my face.

[You have successfully cleared a <Main Mission> ]

[You have been rewarded 5000 pts]

The pain I felt from earlier was now gone,

I-I did it,

I actually managed to do it,

I can't believe it,

I then look up at the sky, as I lay my back behind the door.

A thousand stars met my gaze.

They luster in harmony among the cosmos, their beauty was so grand that it made me feel small.

A cold breeze then flew by making the leaves around flutter.

I utter a smile as I watched,

For a short while,

No other thoughts came into my mind as I sat there,

Mesmerized by the beauty of the night.

*****

I slowly opened my eyes,

A white ceiling lay before me.

"Oh, you're awake?"

I slowly turned my head to where the voice was coming from.

"A staff found you unconscious in the greenhouse,"

"They were pretty angry about the mess you made though, and they asked me to tell you that they need compensation,"

It was a man wearing white clothes,

As I look around, they were also beds and a symbol of Tyresia on the wall.

I'm in the clinic, huh?

I then sat upright as I caressed my head.

Wha-

What happened?

The last thing that I remembered-

"Unleash me,"

The hairs on my skin stood up,

D-did I just kill that man?

"Hey!"

"Did you find another person around the greenhouse?"

"Hmm?, the only one they found was you,"

"Wait what?"

"That impossi-"

As I slowly got my bearings back.

My eyes then widened,

My jaw almost reached the floor,

My entire body became still,

Not a single whisper could be heard inside my mind.

No-

No way.

Tears welled up deep inside and coursed down my cheek.

"He-hey!, you okay?"

For the first time in my entire life,

I could hear my thoughts clearly.

I-I can't believe it.

No murmurs, no whispers, no mumblings.

Only my own voice could be heard.

My throat tightened and my breathing became ragged.

I clenched my chest as I was overcome with emotion.

They're gone,

They are actually gone.

As I realized that,

I could not hold it any longer and broke down.

A flood of tears started to fall from my face.

"H-hey man, are you alright?, do you need any medicines?"

The man in white looked at me confused.

I raise my head to look at him as I wipe my tears with my sleeve.

"No, there's no need for that,"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, because right now, I feel better than I've ever done in my entire life,"

*****

Saturday and Sunday went by in a flash.

I got to class early as usual,

And not long after other students started to pour in,

"Yo, Troi,"

A man with blue hair and brown eyes soon started to approach me.

"Hey, Kyle,"

"How was your weekend?"

"It was decent, I played video games all day,"

Seeing that this was in the modern era with advanced technology, I was curious to see if there were any video games available.

And surprisingly there were many.

They weren't even mentioned in the novel.

And so after buying a computer for 40k bells, I played most of them to distract my mind and to get some rest.

"What about you?"

"It was mostly boring, Me and Mark went to a mixer but, none of the girls took a liking to us,"

After mingling with Kyle for a bit, Ms. Rebecca now arrived inside the classroom.

"Oh, shoot, our instructor is here, talk to you later, Troi,"

"Yeah, you too,"

The murmurs of the class quieted down.

"Alright, before we start, I have an announcement, we will have a half day today and tomorrow we won't have any class, as in Wednesday, we will have a mixed class with the Honor Class of the Mages, so we need time for preparation."

A student then raised her hand.

"Yes, Ellaine?"

"What will the mixed class be about?"

"That's a secret, all I can say is that you guys have to prepare mentally."

Some of the students shivered.

From the novel I already know what the mixed class was all about.

And as I remember,

My body shuddered at the thought.

I let out a sigh,

Well, let's just hope I won't piss my pants on Wednesday.

Class soon continued normally.

Ms. Rebecca was teaching us some history about the world.

I wasn't listening a single bit as I mindlessly stare at the whiteboard.

A bell soon rang within the academy.

"Well, that's all for today, see you on Wednesday,"

I stretched my arms behind my chair.

"Yo Troi, want to come with us to the arcade?"

As I open my eyes it was Mark and Kyle.

"Is Wyatt not coming?"

"We didn't bother to ask anymore, since he's just going to train anyways,"

I got up from my chair and approached Wyatt.

"Hey Wyatt,"

Wyatt then looked at me, his silver eyes were shining.

"Wanna head to the arcade?"

With a huge smile on his face, he soon spoke.

"Yeah,"
