Beast Evolution-Chapter 164 164 Knight Based System

"You have both ice and darkness attributes?" Amelia asked in surprise.

"Yes," Ray answered.

"Wow, dark magic is really rare, how come you didn't attend the mage academy?"

"I just didn't think about it, and besides my abilities manifested late, so that's why"

"Okay, show me your dark magic first," Amelia said.

Ray placed his hands together and gathered Mana to cast his spell, but before he could cast the spell, the door opened and a knight stepped in.

All of them quickly looked towards the door and found a knight walking towards them.

"Who among you is the chef?" the knight asked.

"I'm the one" Cynthia answered.

"The head knight is back and needs you to cook something," the knight said.

"Really, hold my sword" Cynthia gave her sword to Leia and quickly rushed toward the door, the knight followed her behind.

"That means the senior knights are back, we should go greet them" Leia suggested.

"Yeah, you are right, besides we did our best today and I'm tired," Ray said.

"Hey, you still haven't shown me your dark magic," Amelia said.

"Ohh, I'm going to show you later, I'm pretty tired" Ray dragged his body showing signs of weakness.

"Don't mind him, the knight hasn't told him if he's going to continue in the knight academy yet," Leia whispered.

"That's why he wants to see them, that means he really likes the knight academy" Amelia whispered to Leia and walked with them towards the door.

The group came out of the door one after the other, there was no way to tell if it was still afternoon or evening because of the cold and snowy weather but it was clearly not morning. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

Cynthia could be seen running towards the kitchen, she really likes cooking and the rest of them could see that by the way she was smiling brightly.

'I really don't know why I don't want to attend the mage academy, it sounds fun and I get to learn all types of magic, well not all types, now I'm limited to darkness and Ice'

'Maybe in the future, I'm going to unlock more attributes, but first, should I attend the mage academy?' Ray wondered.

"Don't overthink it, the senior knights know that you want to be a knight, so I don't think they would send you to the mage academy" Gabriel said as he saw Ray in deep thought.

"He's right" Leia added.

"Thanks guys" Ray smiled.

'Yeah, this is another reason I don't want to leave the knight academy, I have friends here that care about me, and besides my system isn't magic based'

'I've read a lot of light novels that the MC system is magic based, but mine has attributes that are meant for a knight, my system is a knight-based system, maybe the magic is just an added feature'

'Now that I think about it, what if all the light novels I've read so far are actually another world like this one, what if I'm just inside an author's novel' Ray stopped to think about it.

'I don't think that's the case, if I'm inside an author's novel, the gods that I saw would have no authority to send me back to my world, wait...what if they don't have the ability to send me back to my world'

'What if they are just using me so I would kill Draco, No...they are gods, they wouldn't be so unrighteous right?'

'I really don't know if I should trust them, if they are truly gods that protect humans and I'm their chosen one, they would have talked to me, you know show me a sign, and when my hands were broken nothing happened'

'Last time at the verge of my death, the goddess of healing restored my health, can't the same goddess restore my hands' Ray sighed as different thoughts ran through his mind.

"Look...have you noticed that sometimes, Ray just stares into space, he wouldn't mind what is happening around him, I wonder what he's thinking?" Gabriel said to Leia as they saw Ray.

He wasn't walking with them anymore, he had slowed down before, but now he was walking so slow almost like a sloth, and staring at the ground in deep thought.

"I didn't want to say it, but do you remember when we were in his ice barrier, the senior knights were talking to him and he wasn't paying attention, instead he was looking in front of him like something was there," Leia whispered.

"You are right, I totally forgot about that, should we ask him, maybe he has a weird ghost following him," Gabriel said.

"Weird ghost!..so not all ghosts are weird, and besides ghosts don't exist, maybe he's talking to a magical beast with invisibility powers you know he's a tamer," Leia said.

"Do you know how you sound...have you ever seen a magical beast with invisibility powers" Gabriel shook his head.

"Says the guy who thought he was talking to a ghost, at least I said something reasonable unlike you"

"Why are you guys walking so slow?" Ray asked the both of them.

The two of them were surprised, they totally forgot about Ray and now he was in front of them.

"We were waiting for you," Gabriel said.

"Me...you guys were walking slow it didn't take a few seconds to walk past you, what were you talking about, is it a secret" Ray whispered.

"Nothing...we were just talking about our friends back at the knight academy" Leia responded.

"They would be wondering why we haven't arrived yet, I miss the academy so much" Ray smiled.

? "I'm sure the news that Sir Authur was attacked would have gotten to the knight academy," Gabriel said.

"Even though...the news would be told to the knights only not to first-year students like us," Leia said.

"I can't wait to go back there, all of them would be stronger than the three of us," Ray said.

"Before you think of that, let's go hear what the senior knights would say," Leia told Ray.

The three of the increased their speed and walked toward where the senior knights were, Amelia was already out of sight but they already knew their way around.
