The ti is almost over. So I didn't go back to the Nexus but stayed in the outer region. I found a secluded place to rest, waiting for the portal to open, which would be after a few hours.
Instead of sleeping, I ditated as in this way, I wouldn't be sound asleep but could rest my body. The trial of soul was not easy, though it appeared easy for .
Moreover, I had the promotion mission to complete, which should be easy but being overly cautious and paranoid, had to create evidence and for that, I had to act weak, which was very burdenso.
It put a significant strain on . So I decided to rest for a while ditating. After that, I should find a water source, so that I can clean up myself.
Acting was really difficult. My clothes were torn and dyed red and brown.
It was the only that Dorian would have believed that I was in a pitiful state and made a move. Since he wanted to kill , he would have made a move even without being in such a state but I needed to record his statent.
Though I have never heard about the academy using professionals who can trace back deaths with the help to find about students who died in the secret realm, it is not a guarantee.
That bastard William might use such a thod to find out if I eliminated Dorian or if he died in the hands of others or monsters. He would certainly do that because there was a chance that their plan was known to as I killed Dorian.
These professionals, can't see everything about a person's death, just the last few seconds. It was used to find the culprit but that would be a huge problem.
William would know that I killed Dorian and he may cause trouble for in the future using that information. The idea of recording is also for that purpose. If William uses the academy to cause trouble, then he would be the one who would end up in trouble.
William is a third-year student and Dorian was a first-year student. Normally we wouldn't have any interactions with each other. William belonged to the noble class, a Count house no less, while Dorian cos from a commoner family.
They don't belong to the sa social circle either in the society.
William and Dorian don't co from even the sa province. So there shouldn't be any communication between them.
William made sure that they were not seen together in the academy. So suddenly taking interest in a commoner's death would raise suspicions.
If William was smart, he wouldn't use Dorian's death against through the academy. The people there are not stupid, they would see that William sought them out with other agendas.
Even if they believe his 'justice' or so other bullshit, I have video evidence regarding what Willaim was planning with Dorian and there is a self -incriminating evidence regarding Dorian, who approached with malicious intent.
The problem would be if he doesn't choose the academy but tries to act in another way, which may not be possible to know beforehand.
I should clean myself, as the ti for the exit is near.

A few hours later...
The portal to exit the realm was finally open. It was easy to know where it was as a light beam would be projected into the sky.
I quickly ran in that direction, and with my high AGI attribute, I was able to reach the portal in minutes. I entered the portal imdiately and got ejected back into the academy.
After coming out of the secret realm, I didn't wait up for others and turned to leave the academy.
The academy has already inford us that the students who entered the realm would get a full week as a holiday. After that, we have to report back. I wanted to return ho as soon as possible.
I should go to the magic association in Winter City, and act as if I were taking the Tier-2 promotion mission but instead, I would use that to complete the Tier-5 mission and beco Tier-5.
Only after that, could I be able to upgrade my level whenever I hunt. Moreover, a lot of EXP is still stored after I reached peak Tier-4, especially the EXP I got from the trials. I need to reach Tier-7 at the least to feel secure about my life.
When I was about to leave the grounds, I saw my father amidst the people waiting for the students. I was surprised to see him here because I already inford my parents that I would return ho by myself after the secret realm was over.
I quickly approached him and posed a question, "Father, why are you here?"
"Hehe, your mother sent to pick you up", he said.
"Huh, last ti I ca by myself but why would I need a chauffeur this ti around?" I asked him.
"No reason", he said avoiding further questions.
I didn't believe what he said. There must be a reason why mother sent father to pick up. Were they afraid that sothing might happen to inside? No, observing my father's expression, that may not be the case, at least not fully.
He was here for so other reason but I don't think that it was a bad one.
Since it may not be because of trouble, I decided to play along with him. They should be thinking to surprise with sothing and whatever the surprise was, I can wait till I reach ho.
"Okay then, let's head ho Father", I said to him.
He nodded and then we went to board the transport that my father had arranged for the two of us to the capital. We reached the capital city in half an hour, too slow for but since my father is here, I can't act on my own as I wish.
We proceeded to the teleportation hub and paid to teleport us to the Winter City.
Ho, I am back.
