"Avalon, prepare a VR Pod for ."
Wallace went inside the Virtual World after a while as he would like to see for himself the progress of these gars.
He made so arrangents for them to receive valuable rewards if they passed several conditions. This would help them increase their strength and slowly influence the real world.
"Let's see how far did they reach this ti..."
He wasn't gone for long but because the ga's reward system was fast except for getting the Terminal for Freya, the gars should've uncovered many secrets already. He didn't ask Avalon about their progress as he wanted to see everything while inside the virtual world. It would be easier for Avalon to present all the information.
He cannot be hasty on introducing a groundbreaking technology as many people would be too suspicious and won't be open to accepting it. He was actually starting to introduce a technology that wasn't too far ahead for them like engines for vehicles that would help them in reaching the speed of sound.
At the mont, this world doesn't have the concept of mach speed.
Wallace has been thinking before how he could announce to the whole continent about the impending threat without causing panic, that his words wouldn't be treated as a joke, and his life would also be in safety.
Well, he doesn't want to be the second Aeolia.
If the country judged that he was a threat to the peaceful humankind and trying to cause chaos among the public, his words would no longer weigh that much and he will even be targeted by the governnt's magicians.
The worst-case scenario was that his family would also be affected by his actions.
That was why he was trying to gain a reputation and earn the trust of the people. Although this can easily be done by a Celebrity Idol, as soone who specialized in artifact forging at the mont, he has his own ways.
Luckily, he recently learned that the Grand Arcanists were doing sothing on their own to increase the power of mankind, he was considering whether to just cooperate with them depending on their actions.
Apparently, aside from Lacus, Veda confird this bit of information as well so he was waiting once his Master returned from the northern continent.
"Oh... So you already rewarded that bottle? Impressive... This is Hilda's team, correct?"
Wallace was satisfied seeing that the students from Leonhearts Academy were doing good. Their performance and way of accepting a quest were efficient.
They weren't randomly accepting quests from NPCs and they were mostly taking missions that can be done by a group. This can trigger a lot of opportunities for them since that is the concept of this ga.
This is the correct way to easily increase their chances of obtaining valuable quests and rewards. After all, Wallace wanted to promote unity in this ga making the ga very difficult to be played solo. He wanted them to realize the importance of working together and finding people with the sa goals.
Wallace rembered that he still has three mystery boxes that he hasn't open yet. So he was hoping that it would be sothing that can be given to others.
'Maybe, I can try gifting a few berserk potions this ti?'
The problem was that his potions weren't registered yet so he might be questioned by the authorities.
'I'll ask Yumi later...'
Wallace continued his observations at the players and noticed that the previous student council president seems to be an amazing solo player. Although it will be very difficult in this ga to play that way, it was up to the person on which path they will take.
"Oh, he learned ancient martial arts?!"
It was the technique that Aaron showed to his parents to let him play the ga. It was called Ten-Fold Palm, a martial art that utilizes the vibration to defeat an armored opponent. It was a common art developed by the Galactic Federation to be used by foot soldiers.
Wallace hadn't fully learned this technique as he studied more about ch Fras and other highly advanced weapons. He was aware of many combat techniques but it was mostly for fighting in space using tools or weapons.
"Avalon, how many Combat Arts did you place in the ga for a reward?"
[ Sixteen Martial Arts developed by the Federation and Two Martial Arts developed by Fyoran's Race. ]
The Fyoran was a Minor Race allied with the Galactic Federation. They have the sa build as humans but has blue skins and so yellow spots on their body.
Wallace rembers that they have stronger physical potential since even a one-year-old Fyoran can grasp a stone and turn it into dust without much effort.
"Did you find individuals that have the sa level of physique inside the ga?"
[ Yes. A group of twelve. ]
This piqued Wallace's interest. These people must be absurdly strong if they also possess unimaginable control of mana. A magician with a strong physique was an ideal combat magician as they could fight both in close combat and in ranged.

On the next day, Wallace went to the academy to et with his classmates and to avoid being suspended. He also wanted to experint with his Divine Sense.
"I'm sorry for being absent at that ti... I got caught up in sothing."
Wallace halfheartedly apologized to Miss Chamber. She was requesting his presence to announce his support with her when the representative arrived here a few days ago.
But because he was in seclusion, he missed that ti and ca to apologize.
Luckily, even without his formal announcent, Miss Chamber was still appointed as the new Headmaster.
It seems that she pulled other strings she could while he was out. An instructor of various popular Celebrity Idols was truly influential if they tried.
"That's fine now. You already announced that before the representative ca so I just let him know that..."
The lady smiled as she even offered him to have tea with her. It was her way to celebrate her appointnt as the new headmaster.
Wallace took the invitation since she also helped him with his constant absences. He was a bit thankful for this.
Anyway, Miss Chamber was aware that being an apprentice of a Grand Arcanist would guarantee the young man's future. He will surely surpass his classmates today even though he fully stopped attending classes.
But because the young man wanted to graduate with certificates to present it with his presents, she didn't mind it and even encouraged him to do so.
"How was your master? I heard that he went to the northern continent?"
"Yes... He hasn't returned yet..."
"Mhm... It should be very dangerous in that place. I hope that they can return safely..."
"I hope so..."
Wallace chatted for a while to satisfy the lady since he also has plans to use her influence soday.
But she kept asking about the situation of the Cloud Hawk Manor.
He didn't mind at first but because she was hinting that she wanted to get close to other apprentices of the Grand Arcanist, Wallace excused himself and went to see Miya.
***
Miya ended her practice earlier this ti since she wanted to play with her new friends in the virtual world.
"Ahh... Avalon is so kind... I hope I can play together with him."
Miya muttered as she already gave Avalon a gender. Apparently, Wallace instructed Avalon to take care of this model inside the ga so Avalon did.
Miya requested to Avalon that she wanted to play the ga without anyone knowing that she was Miya Linus.
It wasn't that hard for Avalon since it only needed to adjust her appearance to what she desires.
The A.I. recognizes the girl's importance as it rembered that Wallace even customized a VR Pod for her. A model that was completely different from their concept.
With that as a reference, Avalon didn't mind taking care of her when inside the ga and while Wallace was in seclusion.
There was only one request that Avalon didn't grant to her, it was for Avalon to take a human form and play the ga with her.
"Miya!"
The lady was surprised to hear a man's voice as it interrupted her thoughts.
"Oh, did I startle you?"
"Wallace? I heard from Avalon that you were out for several days. What happened?"
"I was busy with sothing..."
"Mhm... Studies are still important... I hope that you won't be blinded by money. Anyway, Why are you here?"
'Eh? What do you think I'm doing? What did Avalon say? Oh well...'
Wallace thought for a mont.
"I just want your help with the second version of the VR pod..."
"The second version?"
"Yes. The one that non-magicians can use..."
"Oh... What about it?"
"I like to advertise that differently. Do you have any ideas? I want your image as advertisers to our fellow magicians but for this version... I'm thinking of hiring a non-magician as well. What do you think?"
The two were still within the academy grounds. They were not far from the gate as the two were walking side by side. They were like in their own world and not caring about the stares coming from the students around. After all, Wallace was a celebrity in his own way because of his status as an apprentice.
