"Hey, system I've been aning to ask, but why should I forget the title of my novel I'm in?"
I asked out of curiosity as I am searching for a certain business. I'm planning to invest under the na of [Night].
[You can't bring everything here with you, as a matter of fact you forgot a lot of things in your past life. The Higher Being just transferred enough mory in that body to maintain your personalities and charateristics.]
"Is that so."
'Co to think of it I don't even rember my surna and past address.'
Well I don't care, I don't have attachnt to that world anyway.
"Then how co I can rember my novels and my favorite novels?"
[Because it's important to you.]
"Hmm, fair enough."
Novels really do ans a lot to .
"Found it!"
It was then I found the business I'm looking for.
'[Xenon]'
I plan on investing in [Xenon], it's a smithy that creates various kinds of equipnt, it's not known now, but the owner of it will acquire a skill and item that can enchance equipnts' performance.
The owner's na is Tyrone, a major character of the novel, he personally creates equipnts for the main characters, he's in his mid 20's.
Tyrone was about to sell his smithy when he found a skill book and a hamr that will help him beco one of the best smith in the world, it was hidden in his deceased father's room.
The skill and hamr was supposed to be a gift for Tyrone, but his father died from a dungeon overflow before he could give it to Tyrone.
His father is just a normal person but Tyrone is an ability user.
Anyway, I already sent a ssage to Tyrone.
[Night]: Hello, I would like to invest to Xenon.
Ting-
Not waiting for long, I recieved a reply from Tyrone.
[Tyrone]: Um... Mr.Night? Are you sure? I don't even have any employee left. You don't even know , what would you do if I ran away with the money? Wait, is this a prank?
His reply is full of doubt, he's not even trying to hide it.
Well I can't bla him as my sudden ssage is really suspicious.
'You won't run away, I created you to be honest and dependable.'
I thought. Can't say that, can I?
[Night]: It's not a prank, I'm certain. I will et you in person to invest and use a mana contract for our transaction if you want.
I sent it to Tyrone, doing business with him will gain a lot of money and I will have a connection to the future one of the best smithy in the world.
So it's a really good thing to .
Tyrone didn't reply imdiately as if to think things thoroughly.
After a while I recieved a reply.
[Tyrone]: Well, I don't know, but if I didn't grab an opportunity because it's suspicious, I will not succeed, while on the other hand, blindly trusting soone is stupid so let's decide after eting.
His answer is logical and honest.
[Night]: I'm currently preparing for sothing, so let's et on Sunday, I'll prepare the mana contract too as I was the one who suggested it.
I'll go and lead Tyrone to the skill book, I'll just make things a little faster, it will not affect the story greatly anyway. Probably.
[Tyrone]: Okay, I'll see you then.
I didn't reply anymore as I find it unnecessary, I don't know what to reply anyway.
'With that, I secured a big money inco for the future.'
Then I practiced support magics and buffs and debuffs
I continued practicing them until I ran out of mana.
Being exhausted I lay down in my bed and fell asleep.
***
June 1, the first day of academy ca.
When I woke up, I was in my cat form again, maybe because of mana exhaustion.
I washed my face, ate breakfast, and took a bath calmly.
While wearing my uniform, I noticed my watch displaying the ti.
I frowned. Classes starts at and ends at .
And I'm pretty far from the Academy.
I'm in Vagha City, the academy is in Azeas City.
Azeas is in the middle of human domain.
It's 2 cities away from here.
"Fuck!"
I'm gonna be late, because of mana exhaustion I slept more than usual. I usually wake up about because of my body clock.
"You shitty system! Why you didn't wake up?!"
I grumbled, while speeding up my movents.
[You were exhausted, your health is more important than the academy for .]
"Well you have a point but It's the first day of the academy!"
[Nothing change, your health is still more important to ~]
It's teasing .
"Just shut up!"
I did a last check to see if I forgot sothing, and left the appartnt at .
'Am I still gonna be late? I even tried my best to co back quickly from the Red wolves' mountain!'
I'm not really religious but I started praying seriously as I ran toward my destination.
***
I rode rapid trains, if I didn't have I might've ran all the way to the academy because of panic, which is stupid.
I arrived at the academy at .
'3 more minutes!'
I used a university I saw in a sci-fi ani as the Lunar Academy's design reference.
So when I entered the academy.
"Woah..."
I admired it, I looked at the academy's beauty while running. It was more beautiful than my drawing and descriptions. Seeing it in person was a lot different.
Tall buildings and structures can be seen everywhere you look.
Now it feels like I'm in the future.
Unfortunately, I can't waste any ti to look around casually. So I just promised myself that I'll do that later.
I ran where the freshn's building is suppose to be.
"A-1, A-1, A-1"
I ran while searching for my classroom.
And then there I saw on door of one of the classrooms.
[CLASS A-1]
I ran toward it, and when I'm near the classroom.
"Rank 2619, Raven Obadiah?"
I heard a voice calling my na in a questioning tone.
I opened the classroom's door imdiately.
Swoosh-
Click-
Bam-
"Present."
I said as soon as I ca in.
All the eyes in the room turned to .
'Ah, fuck... I wanna hide under a blanket for years.'
I thought in embarrassnt sensing their gazes, but my face remained calm.
I cald my mind with but the embarrassnt is still in .
"You're late, care to explain why?"
A man said while looking at .
'He's the owner of the voice I heard earlier.'
He look like in his late 20s, he have a handso face, his body is muscular, he have brown eyes and hair. But he looks like a musclehead.
His na is Kendy Nasah, our horoom professor and an rank hero, ranked 49 in the [Heroes Ranking]. The ranking is just a human thing, just so you know.
I looked straight at him and spoke confidently.
"I'm a minute early, Sir."
It's 10:29 A.M, so I'm in the right.
I don't know if I'm being rude or what, it's been long since I talked to other people and all of them are younger or the sa age as .
My readers doesn't point it out if I'm being rude or what when replying to them. But I really doesn't want to be rude.
"Oh, you're gutsy."
Kendy said smiling at but he's emitting a heavy pressure toward my direction.
"But I'm not wrong though?"
System adjusts the based on the pressure, so I'm thinking still calmly and receiving the pressure with a calm face, I'm still scared though.
The room was filled with the students whispering to each others while looking at .
"Can I take my seat now so you can start the class?"
I said with a straight face, hiding my nervousness and embarrassnt.
"HAHAHAHA!"
Kendy then laughed and looked at .
"I like your style kid. You may sit, find an available seat."
"Thank you Sir."
Kendy Nasah is a major character in my novel, he likes gutsy people, just don't step over the line and you'll be fine, that's why I answered him boldly. Though I think It's nore like I answered him rudely...
I looked around to find a seat for .
In the back row of seats there's a handso young man with milk white skin, platinum blonde hair and ruby-red eyes.
It was Curtis Hawkins with his goons. He is the rival of the protagonist, he's not a villain but he's arrogant. I don't want near him.
In the front row seats there's a handso young man that rivals Curtis' appearance.
White skin, jet-black hair, sapphire-blue eyes, he even attracts a lot of girls' eyes just by breathing.
Alec Osmond, the protagonist. Near him were all of his potential lovers, Eve Godwin, Adelle Lucette, and Masami Aoi.
All of them were the top students in all freshn, the protagonist is top 1 by the way.
'They all attract way too much attention, I don't want near them...'
'But damn, They're all good looking. My confidence is hurt.'
I say that but seeing the characters I made with ti and consideration moving and breathing is weird for .
In the end, I settled to the mid row on the end right corner. I chose the farthest seat from them.
Right after I sat down Kendy spoke.
"Now stand up and go to the training grounds."
He was looking at grinning like an idiot.
'Bastard.'
Even though Kendy looks like a muscle head, he's actually smart. He gave us instructions to stand right after I sat as a revenge to from earlier.
"Petty bastard."
I muttered in a low voice that even anyone near didn't hear. Well Kendy heard what I said as he looked at squinting his eyes.
I grinned then tilted my head innocently as if asking 'What?'.
I'm pretty petty myself too.
I stood up and headed to the training grounds.
***
Arriving at the training grounds, I saw a lot of weapons lined up.
"These weapons are provided by the academy, you can use a personal weapon but if you don't have one then get here."
Kendy said.
"And since today's the first day, you're free to do anything you want but you can't leave the training grounds for an hour."
He added.
Then so students started picking weapons. Almost all of the main characters have their own personal weapon except the protagonist Alec.
'Well he's supposed to be in a average family too.'
Alec picked a sword as his weapon.
I approached the weapons and picked a handgun.
I already have a gun but appraising the gun provided by the academy, it's a lot better than mine.
Whispers started to be heard around .
They're all looking at .
'Well gun is considered as a weak weapon, so it's not surprising.'
Why I picked a gun?
I don't know how to wield a sword nor spear.
Bow and arrows makes it harder for to cast magic.
And to be a magician you need to be able to cast 4th tier magic right now. I can only cast support magics, buffs and debuffs, which are considered as 1st tier magics, the lowest tier.
While in the future I may be able to cast maybe up to 4th tier magics, the magician students that can cast 4th tier magics now will be able to cast 6 tier or above magics at that ti.
Also I'm pretty much familiar to gun as I got admitted to the military in the past, I also like realistic shooting gas. My aim is not bad too.
"Are you sure on your choice? you can pick any weapon here for free."
It was then Kendy approached and asked with concerned eyes.
'He really cares for his students huh.'
I thought as I nodded my head.
"I'm fine with this."
I answered confidently.
Kendy looked at like I was weird. Well everyone is looking at like that, even the main characters.
'Well, I am weird.'
I shrugged and went to the shooting range area ignoring my surrounding.
'Why the hell would they put a gun in the weapon selection if it wasn't recomnd to students, stupid idiots.'
***
In the shooting range area there's a lot of arrows and bullets. The shooting area is divided in rooms.
I picked up so magazines and bullets.
There's a few students in here, including and Masami Aoi but I'm the only one holding a gun, all of them have a bow in their hands. Aoi is holding a bow personal weapon.
They're looking at weirdly except Aoi who only shows curiosity.
I ignored their gazes.
'System, appraise and record my classmates' stats, I'll look at it later.'
I talked in my mind.
[Okay, got it.]
The system replied.
I looked around, to be specific all of my classmates so the system can appraise them.
[All recorded.]
"Thanks."
After that I went in one of a room of the shooting range.
***
The inside of the room is spacious but I don't really care.
"Training start."
I muttered, I know how this works as I have and from the novel.
-Please modify your training.
A robotic-voice reply ca back.
"10 moving targets, difficulty max."
I said. Training will not be fruitful when doing an easy one, I also have a boost now because of the trait, I gained a lot of attention as soon as I entered the classroom earlier.
Turns out that not just positive attention is being used as a fuel to my growth.
-Training will begin in 10 seconds.
As soon as I heard that, I activated and .
"Fuu..."
I let out a sigh and focused on my surroundings.
"Let's go."
-Training start!
A circular target appeared out of thin air, and seeing that, I imdiately pull my trigger.
Bang!
***
[Session complete]
A hologram displayed the ti I took to hit all the targets.
"Huff... Huff..."
I was breathing roughly because of exhaustion.
As my breathing stabilized, I recalled the training.
"System what do you think?"
I asked.
[Maintain the count of your moving targets but decrease the difficulty to 7. The speed of difficulty 10 is too fast for you at the mont, increase the difficulty one by one when you get used to the speed.]
The system gave instructions for my training, all it said was true. I finished a session in more that 8 minutes and my target were only 10.
"Thanks"
After that, I reset my training according to the system's advice.
I trained like that for about an hour before leaving the training grounds to go back the classroom.
***
I reached the classroom not long as it wasn't that even far from the training grounds.
But as I was about to enter the classroom, 4 students approached . They're my classmates. I assud.
But they were extras in the novel, I'm sure as I don't know any of them.
"Oh! Isn't this our gunner?"
Then the young man in the front of the group said to with a scoff on his face.
