Chapter 433 Fall and Rise - IV

433 Fall and Rise – IV

An announcement was made for the new Third Year Students to pack their stuff, with necessary artifacts and armor they needed.

Even though it was named a vacation, there was a high chance that it was more of an educational trip where the students might have to spar or duel other hunters in Halcyon.

But despite knowing all that, the excitement of all the Third-Year students was high.

After all, it was the first time most of them would visit the closed continent Halcyon, and that also as the students of the World Academy.

And the students from Halcyon were excited to show their continent to their fellow friends, there was a lot of friction between students of different continents.

After all, it was a matter of pride and their identity as the citizens of one of the five continents. However, due to the low numbers of students allowed in World Academy, there weren’t many arguments about such things.

And the Student Council was there to resolve things before they escalated into a big issue.

But there were times when that stuff didn’t matter, as they simply enjoyed sharing the stories of their continent.

In the Rankers Dome,

Alyssa was sitting in her room as she was discharged a few days ago.

But her face looked emotionless as she was sitting in her bed while clutching her head.

The screams inside her head had grown stronger and abnormally louder.

“You want to run away?!”

“COWARD!!”

“Alyssa, will you not avenge your mother?”

The sweet voice of her mother made it even more painful for her.

“Oh, do you want to live longer?”

“You will die, you know it!!”

“Isn’t this the best chance!!”

“The best chance to inflict the same pain on them?”

Alyssa’s health condition hadn’t become better as she was slowly realizing that even living till 30 was something she could only dream of.

Alyssa stood up as she touched the empty canvas.

“What should I do?” Alyssa muttered.

“Tell me…”

She asked, but there was no answer.

“If I don’t, they will go after your status…” she muttered.

“I knew it, I shouldn’t have gotten involved with you,”

At this time, she wanted to talk with him, but he wasn’t around.

In the Faculty Council, with the restriction on his ID Bracelet, Asher was working on his tenth report.

All the ones he presented before were rejected by Fernando, and this was the final report that Asher would complete in three days.

Knock! Knock! The source of this content s N(o)vl(F)ire.nt

Somebody knocked on the door as it opened, and Fernando entered.

“I have talked with the people in charge, you can join the trip a day after the other students,” Fernando said.

“Please make sure to complete this report, knowing your exceptional performance in the End Year Tournament, I don’t want your position to be affected because of this,” Fernando said.

“Ok,” Asher replied.

Fernando went back as he closed the door.

As Asher noticed the door being closed, he closed the report he was doing and opened another.

After looking at multiple reports, he found a report that stood out to him.

A drug that could limit someone’s mana to help a person when their mana would go wild while increasing the rank of their mana core.

It was quite different, but the report was graded as a failed one because using a drug at such a crucial time could lead to the death of a person.

“Van Hargrave..,” Asher saw the name on the report.

This report was slightly more complicated than Asher’s, and it was clear that the thinking of the person behind this report was different from the norm.

To use poison to stop someone’s mana, even if it only worked till E Rank as per the report for safety measures, showed remarkable thinking.

“Ten days, huh,” Asher closed the report,

He had ten days to complete the report, which would have been difficult for any other students because the research report needed to be on a certain standard for him to receive decent or above decent grading.

As this subject took more importance in the overall academic marks, doing badly here could affect Asher’s ranking when they started in the Third Year.

Meanwhile in the Ranker’s Dome,

Alyssa looked in the mirror as she wore her mask, the voices in her head were screaming.

In the past few days since she left the Hospital, her emotions, especially her hatred, increased a lot.

She was looking at the mirror as her eyes went dull.

Everything around her was burning. Walls were falling, and the sound of weapons clashing with each other echoed throughout the entire space.

“HAAAAAAH,” Alyssa gripped her neck as she fell out of her hallucination.

“Huff, huff, huff,” She could barely breathe as her hands kept shaking.

This wasn’t the only problem she was facing, the message from Alan that she needed to get out of the academy and go back to the Astaria family.

She felt cornered. Paths to her revenge kept closing one by one, and the opportunities kept closing.

Unlike others, time wasn’t on her side.

Others were getting stronger, and they would keep getting stronger, but for her things were different.

A body that was deteriorating, an affinity that would slowly consume her mind, and her enemies that kept getting stronger.

To avenge her mother, her broken childhood, and her life that was full of suffering after that day.

Was it time for her to give up?

But before such questions could come into her mind, Alyssa’s emotions kept burning, and her mind was set.

Just like what Gavin had told her, after the Trials Ground, everyone would get stronger, and she would be forced to leave the academy.

At first, Alyssa would never have accepted the help of someone from an Elite family. The very people she hated.

But what choice did she have?

After all, it wasn’t her own life that depended on this.

In the World Academy,

“Are you sure Leonard, what if that guy contacts her?” Gavin asked.

“Hahaha, don’t worry about that, you remember your role?” Leonard asked with a light smirk on his face.

“Yeah,” Gavin said.

Leonard disconnected the call as Gavin’s face looked bored.

“I would have had more fun if you had told me to torture her,” Gavin said.

The next day, every third-year student was gathered near the Portal Area, as many Professors were gathered there.

The safety of this trip was an extremely important matter so many 3 Star Professors were present here.

And even some of the officials of the World Association were near the Portal Area.

As the students were going to one of the cities of Halcyon, the security there was being handled by the World Association and the Royal Guild.

“I hope all the students have stored their equipment with them,” Professor Arman said.

“Remember to become a good hunter, you would have to be vigilant at all times,” He said.

“You can enjoy this trip but remember you will also train there, although what you would do we will tell you there,” Arman said as he looked to his side.

“And the last thing, the restriction locks on your ID Bracelet will be turned on,”

“This means that you won’t be able to remove them so that if anything happens, we can track you guys instantly,” Arman said.

“The data on that ID Bracelet will not be stored but if an emergency occurs, we will be using it to monitor your location,” Arman said.

Knowing that they wouldn’t be monitored 24

/7, some of the students relaxed as no one wanted to be restricted so much.

Everyone looked excited as this was the first trip outside World Academy where they would be allowed to freely roam other places.

Unlike the dungeon raids where they needed to complete the exploration and come back to the World Academy, for many students, this was something they were looking forward to.

Hearing the stories of the recent graduates, many of them were excited to travel outside of World Academy and see the experience they would only know when they became Fourth Years themselves.

But a part of the gathered students didn’t look exactly excited as they saw Alyssa standing with them.

“Why are they taking her as well?”

“Let’s ignore her, I don’t want our trip to be ruined,”

“If I were her, I wouldn’t have wanted to go outside this academy,”

Alan who was standing with Ria Adler and other students from big families looked over in Alyssa’s direction and looked away with an annoyed look.

On the other hand, Gavin was smiling as he touched his ID Bracelet to message someone.
