20 ...I stare in silence, eventually noticing that Tar had left my lap and is staring at it as well.
Neither of us say anything for a while.
I guess that answers your question about what her name is, Tar eventually says, and I just nod my head in response.
The great Whites name is Amelia Asger. Which means my last name did come from my mother after all.
I knew it might happen at some point, but I wasnt expecting to get one so soon. An achievement locked etched skill from White.
Although this will be a pain to level up. I really wish you could just level up achievement locked skills like this one and blood regeneration through spending SP, but nope. The System has to be stingy and make the skills inherent ones as soon as we purchase them.
Its not really being stingy Tar trails off as he realizes Im just saying it to keep my mind off of the absolute confirmation that White is indeed my mother.
Before now, I had no absolute confirmations since the only one who knew Tar couldnt confirm it with one hundred percent certainty, only go around his rules to imply it. But now? Now I have ironclad proof that she is my biological mother.
In all honestly, its a lot to take in.
Will you be okay? Tar asks, but I quickly nod.
Yeah, Ill be fine. At the end of the day, shes just the one who gave birth to me. Nothing more.
If anything, Cynthia is my mother. Shes the one who sat by my bed and sang me lullabies when I was a kid having trouble to sleep. And she was also the one who I know protected me more than once from thugs along with Allen when we were just walking through the orphan district of Rothwell City. Even if they assure me it wasnt them.
I let out a sigh, just staring up at the ceiling from my place on the bed.
Its just surprising.
Thats all.
Tar hums in response, not saying anything else as we just lie in silence.
The remaining month of the semester passes by rather slowly, with me participating in every single Demonic Assault throughout the time frame and eventually through achievements, of course getting the Skill Points necessary to purchase the Pain Diffusion skill. Which shows itself as immensely useful in combat by helping keep me from becoming caught up in pain.
How do you think you did on that final? Belle asks as we walk down the snow-covered street of the campus grounds not long after taking the final exam for System Basics. I felt pretty bad about it.
Youre going to pass just fine, I tell her, brushing her worries aside since shes always been like this. Fretting over her grade for who knows how long and then ending up with an A in the end.
Well, Im not miss 100 like you, she says with a harrumph, making me a raise a brow. Yes, I know you get perfect scores because of your obsessive studying, but just let me complain, okay?
I snort at that.
Someones feeling prickly about how Arthur said he wouldnt be able to see her live during the Interschool Tournaments. Of course, I dont say this out loud.
I very much like her not trying to touch my ears in a screwed up form of revenge.
In all honesty, the exams were rather easy for the classes Ive taken so far. Although Ive only had the exams for Demonology, Guardian Law, and System Basics. So I havent had any of my elective classes exams yet.
Judging by how the midterms were for them though, the only one Ill have to worry about is Blood Magic.
Because miss Hunter is extremely harsh in her grading. I was absolutely sure that I got a perfect score, just like I got in most of my other classes, but nope. I got a ninety-one out of a hundred points instead.
Absurd.
Although Leo Foster the other guy who has blood magic in my year did worse, despite having been a Guardian for a decent chunk of time longer than me. But from what Ive learned of the guy, he doesnt really like studying.
Actually, if he didnt have to be here, Im pretty sure he wouldnt have gone to university at all and wouldve instead stayed as a shut-in somewhere.
The guy seems to be even more into video games than me. To an extreme extent bordering on obsession.
Not healthy.
Belle whod been quiet for a while as we walk through the lightly falling snow, letting me brew in my thoughts suddenly noticeably shivers in her rather bundled up clothes consisting of a heavy coat and thick pants and boots before saying, Its a cold winter this year, isnt it?
I glance at her before looking down at my clothes which consist of my magi-tech armor. Then I look up again with a shrug as I answer, Kind of. But I like the cold, and Im reaching the point where my level is high enough that it doesnt affect me much.
She scoffs at that.
Right, I almost forgot you will probably be breaking into Class II not long after the tournaments finish, she mutters, sounding a little despondent. Which makes me unsure of what to do or say.
Belle hasnt really taken my leveling speed all that well. She for some reason wants to keep up with me at all costs, but that isnt going to happen for obvious reasons. And I kind of wish she would just understand that and move on.
But emotions are a confusing thing that doesnt follow logic as I so very wish it did.
The exams aside though, this will be a very interesting weekend.
Because its the weekend that marks the start of the Interschool Tournaments for the year. Or at least the opening ceremony, which is on Sunday.
A very interesting weekend indeed.
