The Author's POV

Chapter 161

Carrying my tired body out of section B, feeling the nice spring breeze brush past my skin as I walked around the academy campus, I decided to enjoy the fresh air and the scenery as I slowed down my footsteps.

Staring at the students walking along the academy road, I fell into deep thought as I looked back at what happened the past month and a half.

Honestly nothing much happened.

...it was a fairly uneventful month and a half. This was considering the fact that ever since arriving in this world I've never had a proper day where nothing happened.

Be it demons or conflicts with the professors or arrogant young masters, nothing of the sort happened during this month and a half.

Shocking if I had to be honest..

Perhaps it was because at this point in time in the novel there was a time skip, or because of the inter academy exchange that was about to happen, no trouble came my way.

...and thanks to that, I was able to finally take a proper breather and focus on myself.

A lot of the stress that I had built up during the first five months that I had arrived here had significantly diminished as I was now feeling better. Both physically and mentally.

If I had to be honest, I really needed that. Perhaps because I was too focused on keeping myself alive and improving my strength, I never really bothered taking care of myself.

It was only after things slowed down that I realized how fatigued and tired I was. Had I not taken the rest and things had gone at the same pace as before, it wouldn't be long before I would've broken down mentally.

...fortunately, I realized this before it was too late.

Either way, if there was a notable change that happened during this past month and a half, it would be that my strength has seen a noticeable boost.

With me reaching the greater realm of mastery for almost every art I practiced, I had now almost caught up with most of the top first-year students.

...if I had to evaluate my strength now, it would definitely be within the top 10 of the first years.

Considering the fact that I had only been in this world for around seven months, that was nothing short of outstanding.

Still, although I was now within the top ten, that didn't mean I had caught up with Kevin.

...no, I was still quite far from him.

But it was understandable. It had to be noted that Kevin had a system with him.

There was no way I was going to catch up to him in that short period of time. Especially not when he had a system aiding him at all times.

Moreover, just because I was getting stronger didn't mean that the others weren't also getting stronger.

In fact, everyone apart from Melissa found themselves breaking through a rank.

Amanda, Emma had both reached rank, whilst Jin rank.

Once news of their progress was made known, the academy was in a small uproar as such strength at this age was almost unheard of.

Regarding Kevin, he was still rank.

Though he had unparalleled talent and a system with him, he still needed a couple of more months before breaking through again.

Anyhow, strength aside, there was another development that took place this past month...and it was the fact that Melissa had almost finished the first prototype of the magic card.

According to what Melissa told me (via text, as she specifically told me that she didn't want to see my face) was that currently, although fully functioning, the efficiency loss of the card was still too high.

Meaning that it was still not commercially viable as a product. At the moment, It could only be used for investment purposes as the first proper card would still take her quite a bit of time to fully develop.

...but that was enough.
