Chapter 19: Prodigy!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

If the previous praise for Moss was only for a particular move, a specific type of excellence or surprise, then the school director’s ‘Prodigy’ just now was a confirmation of Moss’ excellence.

The headmaster sitting beside the school director also had a severe expression.

Previously, he also felt that Moss’ choice of team and class was like child’s play. However, after watching Moss’ battle in the Mystic Realm, he also thought he agreed with the school director’s words.

“He is indeed a prodigy. In the battle, his grasp of timing and strength is outstanding. Even his defensive skills are different from regular Knight classes.”

As the headmaster expressed his opinion, the school director slowly nodded his head in approval. This was what he meant.

As he spoke, the headmaster looked at Aisha. This time, there was no anger in his eyes. Instead, they were filled with curiosity and inquiry.

“Aisha, what’s with this student of yours? Why are his skill and combat ability so strong?”

Hearing the headmaster’s question, Aisha, who was also shocked by Moss’ action, came back to her senses.

Since the beginning of the test, Aisha’s mentality was like riding a roller coaster. It was fascinating.

First, her favorite disciple Moss was suspected of not paying attention to the test and targeted by the school leaders.

Then, Moss’ team crashed into the Magical Beasts’ encirclement and fell into a desperate situation.

When Aisha did not have much hope, she saw Moss use a stunning sword attack to instantly kill the Level-2 Explosive Wolves in front of him, which shocked Aisha.

At that point, the attitude of the school leaders towards Moss began to have a considerable change. The voices praising Moss’s talent in swordsmanship gradually increased.

As Moss quickly killed the Explosive Wolves one by one, the evaluation of the school leaders towards him also increased. Finally, after Moss killed all five wolves, even the school director said Moss was a prodigy.

Aisha was confused. She felt like she was in a dream. When she realized that the headmaster was asking her questions, she thought for a while, but she found that she had no clue.

In the end, she could only say, “Headmaster, I think this is all due to Moss’ strength.”

“Moss is the most hardworking student I’ve ever brought up. His strength is extreme. In addition to the improvement after he awakened his class, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds.”

When Aisha said this, the teacher-in-charge of Class One could not help but look at her. Aisha’s words were similar to what she had just said, but they sounded completely different.

When she had spoken, Moss had relied on a sneak attack to kill an Explosive Wolf. Now that Moss had completed a strong record of killing five wolves, these words further highlighted Moss’s extraordinary strength.

Sure enough, just as Aisha’s words fell, the other teachers nodded and said with a sigh,

“It seems that Moss is indeed a prodigy.”

Then one of the teachers shook his head. “What a pity.”

Aisha also fell silent. Such a talented student chose the Knight profession. This test might be his final peak. How could it not be a pity?

The school director asked, “Miss Aisha, do you know why he chose the Knight class?”

This question had been lingering in the minds of all the teachers.

When Aisha heard the school director’s question, she quickly told him that Moss’ family had no money left and had no choice but to awaken the Knight class.

After hearing this, the school director sighed and shook his head.

“Sigh, it’s a pity. Knights can’t go far in modern society. This is no longer the glorious era of the Knights.”

The school director’s eyes flashed with the light of reminiscence as if he had thought of some extraordinary time in the past.

But very quickly, his eyes dimmed again, and he detached himself from his memories. The school director’s mood seemed to be somber.

He instructed the headmaster, “Headmaster, in the future, if there are any other students with such outstanding abilities but with family difficulties, remember to inform me. The school can arrange to purchase Class Change Scrolls for them. The money to buy these scrolls can be repaid after they work in the future.

“We have already missed out on Moss. We cannot let other outstanding students suffer the same fate.”

The headmaster nodded with a serious face. He seemed to agree with the school director’s words.

“Look, Senior Moss is moving.”

While the teachers were talking, Moss’s test continued on the screen.

After killing five Explosive Wolves, Moss walked to the tree at the side, pulled out the sword that he had thrown out, and set off again.

However, this time, Alan’s attitude toward Moss had significantly changed.

“Moss, how did you do it just now? Those were five Explosive Wolves. How did you kill them so quickly?”

As he spoke, Alan gestured with the sword in his hand, trying to imitate the way Moss had used his sword. However, even though his Awakened class had strengthened him, his physical fitness was still inferior to Moss’.

Of course, Moss could not explain the Unlimited Class Evolution System to Alan. Fortunately, he had already thought that he might face such an inquiry, so he directly said, “Alan, didn’t I say that my Knight is different? I will use facts to prove myself. You believe me now, right?”

Alan had seen Moss killing his enemies with his own eyes just now, so he nodded his head hurriedly. All the uneasiness and worries before the battle were swept away.

In his eyes, Moss was undoubtedly much more potent than other Knights.

He might even be stronger than Cullen, who had awakened the Swordmaster class.

Hyah!

Hyah!

Clang!

After Alan and Moss continued to advance for some distance, they suddenly heard a series of shouts and the sound of swords clashing against each other.

The two of them immediately stopped in their tracks.

Moss pulled out his sword, and Alan also held his sword in his hand.

The two of them did not say anything else. They just looked at each other and understood each other’s thoughts.

This was the Mystic Realm. It was impossible to get rid of danger. Even examinees like them should take the initiative to look for enemies.

Moss and Allen followed the sounds of fighting and shouting as they walked for some distance. Finally, they saw the person who made the sound— it was an old acquaintance of theirs.

The person who made the sound was none other than Cullen’s team.
