Chapter 87: First Task, Avelia Zenford

Senior Rishen smiled and said, " You will spend your next two days here, In these two days I will help you increase your comprehension of an Intent. "

Athan was a bit shocked to hear that and asked, " Is it possible to increase someone else's comprehension of Intent? "

Nodding his head, Senior Rishen said with a faint smile, " Those who have reached Master level in Intents can preach others to increase their understanding of that Intent. "

" I see..."

Senior Rishen then swiped his hand horizontally which brought a hologram there and said with a smile, " Let me check your current comprehended Intents. "

He then turned his attention to the hologram and started mumbling, " Hmm, Fire and Water Intent at Advance Level already? On top of that, you have reached Intermediate Level in Lightning, Earth, Wood, Air, Dark, Blood, Light, Space Intents and the only Elementry Level Intent is Shadow Intent. "

He then looked at Athan and said with a smile " Looks like your comprehension speed is very fast. nine Intents at Intermediate level and Two at Advanced Level. You are already strongest in this batch hahaha. "

He didn't mention Shadow Intent here as it was just at Elementry level.

Afterward, He once again looked at the screen and said, " As for Mystic Intents, You've already comprehended two and one of them is already at Advanced Level while another is at Intermediate Level..."

He couldn't hide the shock as he thought, ' This much in just one month? No wonder his Fate looked so chaotic and far-reaching to me. '

But Athan was a bit confused, ' I recently comprehended Blood Intent at Intermediate Level while Ice and Shadow Intent at Elementry level. What's more, I comprehended 3 mystic Intents and all of them are at the Advanced level....hmm Looks like not everything is recorded through the Digiband. '

He thought for a second as he arrived at the conclusion, ' So far, The only Intents that Digiband recorded are the intents that I used....I see. '

" Senior Rishen, Is it possible to hide one's progress from the Digiband? " Athan asked as it was crucial for him.

Hearing Athan's question, Senior Rishen laughed and said, " You are afraid that you will encounter trouble if other teachers see your fast progress right? "

Athan smiled awkwardly and nodded.

" Don't worry, Although I am shocked by your progress I'm not worried since you took that oath. Also in this whole Academy, only three people can check details of students stored in their Digiband and The Tests, Missions, and rewards by AI. "

" Also this Digiband is only capable of sensing the Intents so when you reach Genesis conceptual Planes and further planes, There will no Main Tests but only various kinds of Missions. "

Athan nodded hearing that as he signed an internal relief before saying, " So which Intent you're going to preach me about? "

" Let's go with Lightning Intent..."

...

...

When There were only two hours left until the mission, Athan comprehended Lightning Intent to Advanced Level while successfully shocking Senior Rishen.

' With my preaching, He just took two days to get Intermediate Lightning Intent to Advanced Level? Phew, Glad that this monster is a human. '

He also got a bit excitement despite his status as he could see a better future.

" Alright, Now just wait for the Mission notification and do your best after entering. "

Athan nodded as he was also surprised that his Lightning Intent went from Intermediate to Advanced in just two days.

...

It didn't long as two hours passed by in the blink of an eye as Athan received a notification.

[ New Mission ]

[ A joint Mission held by Myriad Stars Academy and Silver leaf Academy. ]

- Duration: 3 days.

- Reward: From 200 Credits to 1000 Credits.

[ If you do not accept this Mission in an hour, It will be forfeited automatically. ]

Athan accepted the mission as he saw Senior Rishen nodding his head to him.

...

Afterward, He arrived at an unfamiliar place inside the Virtual World. The ground was barren and it seems to be noon.

The place was filled with people of his age as more and more students were arriving each second.

A loud sound reverberated after 5 minutes.

[ All the registered Origin Plane Students have arrived. The Pairings will be finished in one minute. ]

[ 0:59 ]

[ 0:58 ]

[ 0:57 ]

...

One minute passed as Athan saw a small hologram appearing in front of him.

[ Your Partner is Avelia Zenford ]

[ You will be transported to your temporary dorm in 3 seconds. ]

[ 3 ]

[ 2 ]

[ 1 ]

[ 0 ]

As the countdown hit 0, Athan arrived in a medium-sized empty room.

" So you are my partner for this joint mission. "

Hearing the voice from behind him, Athan turned around as he saw a girl with long silver hair and beautiful features.

She was a bit less tall than Athan and had around E cup bust and slim waist, She had the perfect figure that made her look very beautiful.

What stood out was that her hair and eyelashes both were silver-colored and her skin had not a single spot as it was clean like moonlight.

Athan was a bit dazed seeing her beauty, But he regained his bearing after a second as he adopted an indifferent look on his face, ' No distraction allowed, I will achieve Soul Altar Plane as fast as I can to free Tiana from the black whirlpool. '

Just then a hologram appeared in front of both of them.

[ Your First Task is to save a village. ]

- The number of Death should not exceed 10.

- Reward: ??? It will be decided by your performance.

[ To commence this task, You and your partner will have to press the start button. ]

Athan saw the [ Start ] icon at the bottom and pressed it before looking at Avelia.

She also looked at Athan and asked, " Why the hurry? "

" Let's just start and finish this task. " Athan shook his head and just urged her to start.

" Alright. " Saying this, Aevilia also pressed [ Start ] icon.

...

The scenery around them changed as they arrived in a small village that had wooden houses.

The village was really small as it had only around 30 houses.

People of the village were shocked to see Athan and Avelia appearing out of nowhere.

But not even a second later, The ground started to vibrate slowly but it increased in intensity with each second.

Avelia frowned and said, " Looks like it's already starting. They didn't even give information on what we are facing. "

Athan directly flew up and shouted in a very loud voice using Air energy, " People of this Village, Immediately gather here if you don't want to die. "

The people of the village were already scared due to the vibration on the ground so after they heard Athan's voice, They panicked a bit but immediately gathered towards them.

After seeing this, Athan looked at Avelia and said, " Do you have any Powerful Defensive spells? "

Avelia nodded and without Athan saying what to do, She waved her hands as something started to form around the gathered villagers.

While doing it, She said to the gathered villagers with a smile, " Don't worry, I am going to use magic to make a barrier around you so don't panic and just stay there. If you come out from the barrier you will likely die so don't come out. "

Athan looked at the spell formed by Avelia and was a bit surprised because He sensed Intermediate Space, Air, and Sound Intent from it.

The barrier had only rough outlines of cyan color and Athan felt that it was not a simple barrier.

After she was finished, She looked at Athan and said with a smile, " This is my most powerful Offensive Barrier. It can protect the people inside and by chance someone attacks them, The barrier will release a shock wave of Air mixed with space and sound ripples. "

Athan nodded with a plain face before he waved his hands and created Myriad prison of Light Element on top of her Barrier.

Avelia frowned and said, " Why did you do that? "

" It doesn't hurt to make more defensive meas- "

*RAWRRRRRR.....*

Athan's words were cut off by a powerful roar as they saw a giant green weird beast flying towards them.

The beast looked like a Liger that had green wings.

Athan looked at it before pointing his hands towards it and released an Impact Shot of Wood Energy.

He decided to go with Wood energy first as He needed to use Fire and Air energy for Combusting Burst steps, Space energy for Space Ripple, Earth Energy for Golems, and Blood Energy for Blood Threading Barrier.

The vibration increased even more as Beasts started to appear.

3 ground and 4 Flying beasts were coming from the left side while 4 ground and 2 Flying Beasts were coming from their right side.

Seeing this, Athen said, " I'll handle the beasts on the left while you handle the right side. After I'm done I'll help you. " Saying this, He summoned 3 golems and let them stand guard around the villagers.

Avelia snorted and said, " I don't need your help, instead you can ask for my help if you feel troubled. " After saying this, She also started moving while thinking, ' What is with his eyes? Despite seeing my beauty he acts like this? Could it be that he likes boys? No no...I saw him entering into a daze for a second when he saw me for the first time....hmph whatever, I'll show him how powerful I am in this task. '

The nearest beast in front of her looked like a frog but with yellow liquid all over its body, She frowned seeing it, and brought out a silver-colored folding sensu fan and waved it towards the frog-like beast.

A Spiraling projectile made of fire and dark energy released from the fan which turned the frog-like beast into white light.

She smiled seeing this and looked back to check how Athan was doing.

But when she turned around, She saw a beast turning into white light which shocked her.

Of course, the reason for the shock was that there was no other beast besides the one she saw turning into white light.

' How is it possible? '

...

Not even a minute ago...At the time when Athan went to face the beasts.

He released Impact Scatter and controlled the small bullets with space energy and mystic force to accurately hit the beasts in their heads which turned them into white light instantly but one beast was a bit tough as it was a rhino-like beast with armor so Athan released an Impact shot to defeat it which was seen by Avelia.

These beasts were only Origin Grade-2 beasts so they were killed by one bullet of Impact Scatter.

...

The shocked Avelia heard the sound from behind her and turned around before hurridly releasing the same spiral-type projectiles to defeat the beasts.

But they had no time to rest as another wave of even more powerful beasts seemed to be arriving.

*HOWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL....*
