After checking my status panel, I went to the washroom to tidy myself up. Though it was not as exaggerated as purifying bodies in the novels, I slled. It was not best to stay like that for another minute.
After completing the daily necessities, I went to have breakfast. Though all three of us wanted to be at the table at the sa ti, but as a Viscount my father's schedule wouldn't allow so. So most of the ti, it would be just Mother and I.
When I was much younger, there were my siblings but after they went to the academy, it would be just the two of us who spent ti together.
We had our breakfast and I was about to leave for the training hall. Even though I am stronger, my skills were still at their weakest. I need to improve them, and only then I would be able to survive longer.
As I was leaving, my mother called, "Your father wanted you to have this. It would be a pretty useful skill", she said.
As she said, it was a skill book that I was much in need of, Perception. After learning and improving this skill, I can learn the skill book I had to keep away for the mont, Improved Perception.
I have no idea why this has to be done in this way but those are the rules of this world. So may appear weird to because I have read many web novels, which are different from this but it also makes sense at the sa ti because of those web novels, where every world has its own set of rules.
"Thank you Mom", I said and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
She smiled and rubbed my head as she always did, whenever I did sothing that she liked or approved.
I imdiately used the skill book that my mother gave . I need to improve my Perception skill as soon as possible so that I can learn the Improved Peception Skill as well. In less than three months, there would be the Academy Entrance test for the Royal Academy, which would select who can enter the academy and who can't.
I need to enter the Royal Academy at all costs.
There are other academies in the kingdom but attending the Royal Academy is a matter of prestige for the children of nobles. Though my family's status is at the bottom of the noble line, still we were not at the end of the line.
Anyway, the reason I wanted to be at the academy was because, in every story, the protagonist would find one way or another to get into the best academy. If there was any protagonists of my generation, they would surely appear at the Royal Academy, if they were born or from this kingdom.
Though I don't want to mix up with those clowns, I do need to know how the story is going on, so that I can make plans of my own.
In order to make sure that I can enter the academy and also make it to the top ten, I need to improve my perception. Top ten, because if the protagonist is there, he would most likely join the top class. Though I don't know how the academy allocates the children to a class, I feel it is best to be in the top ten, which has a high probability of getting into the sa class as the protagonist.
So, one of the tests that the academy conducts includes, survival in a dungeon. The candidate has to survive for the whole ti and has to collect as many tokens as they can from the dungeon. This exam remained the sa for years. The only change that they made was the dungeon itself.
Anyway, the main issue was that the dungeon would be full of dangers. Though I know that we would be given a protection talisman, which would activate once when we are in danger and can bring us outside, there is always a chance of failure.
No item is 100% guaranteed. There would always be flaws in the goods. That's a rule that every world abides by. If it were weapons or armor, you can check them if they were working but talismans are different. They are one-use products, so you know what the talisman could do but not if that particular talisman works or not.
Moreover, there are monsters with various sneak attacks, that would be failed to be registered by the protecting talisman in ti. Even if your life would be saved, there is a chance of maiming.
Unlike the ancient tis, there were skills and thods to even regrow the organs of a person as long as it didn't cross a certain ti limit. Though the way is there, it was very costly and can't be afforded by many.
As a child of Viscount, I can afford such dical bills, but that would cause to lose much of my pocket money that I get to spend every year. There is no way that the elders would let enjoy the benefits of the family without contributing a little to the family, especially the ones who stand against my father.
So the best way to deal with this was not to get injured in the first place. This was why it was important to improve your perception as soon as possible.
After learning the skill, I went to the training hall. The best way to improve Perception was to get hit and where can I find such a way to improve my skill without getting into a dangerous situation? It was the training hall.
Improving the level of my perception skill would be the sole focus of my training when I am not busy finding a way to complete the Tier-4 promotion mission. I still need to complete that before I leave ho to take the test to enter the academy.
For the next two months, improving Perception and finding a way to correct the ritual, so that I can complete my promotion mission. Nothing else matters until these two are completed.
