Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 314 A New Journey
"Hum, you two are not bad. Not bad at all, hahaha!" Nefion said, patting both Lucas and Liz on the shoulder.
He was impressed by their talent, as it was decent for a human. They had just started their magical journey, yet had improved at a fast pace. Nefion was more than happy to have two incredible youths in his school!
"Is it over?" Wisa asked.
She and Jane had left the training room to meet up with Arthur and the others, hoping that everything went in the right direction. When both of them left, everyone was shocked! Wisa and Jane had gotten some benefits from the intense one month training, and had reached the rank 2!
Arthur was the only one okay with it, as he already knew his wives had reached rank 2. It was still quite the achievement, and everyone in Ouroboros was impressed by them.
"Are you leaving, bro?" Lucas asked.
Now that the war was over, there was no reason for Arthur to stay there, especially now that he was a rank 3 mage, and could explore all the corners of the planet. He had a lot of things to do in Odemore, but his plan to take control of the central continent was not that hard anymore.
Nefion agreed to help him, as that was the only way to keep their hearts at peace when both left the planet.
"For some time, yes. I need to find some of my friends." Arthur said.
The look of sadness was clear on their faces, but there was nothing Arthur could do to prevent that. There were three people he wanted to find as quickly as possible: Theo, Kai, and Hiley.
Lucas and Liz would now stay in Ouroboros, and they both promised Arthur they would train as hard as they could to one day reach him, and maybe fight side by side with him. That was a noble statement, and Arthur believed they would reach that point, considering their talent.
Nefion wanted to go see Eleonora now that everything was dealt with, but he needed some time to recover after the fight, and it was a good thing for him to stay around until the war was officially over. So, he stayed in Ouroboros for now.
"Kiddo, I will try my best to locate your friend Hiley, but you must know this is a hard task, and it can take some time."
"I know, that is why I will leave on a journey to find her now that I am a rank 3 mage."
There were only a few mages who could go up against him on that planet. Arthur was not dumb to believe there were no other rank 3 mages on the planet. Perhaps there was no human with the power of a rank 3 mage, but there were lots of other races, and surely some magical beasts had grown to have such power after thousand of years.
Still, with his current level of power, traveling throughout the world trying to find Hiley was possible, and that was exactly what he would do.
Both he and his wives left Ouroboros after saying goodbye to everyone, returning to Odemore where Laura, Elena, and Sybille were.
"Arthur, you are back! And what is up with your strength?" Laura said.
She could not believe what she was seeing. Sure, she felt some incredible mages fighting, but Laura never believed Arthur was already on a level she could not comprehend! No matter how hard she tried to read his mana, she felt nothing. It was as if Arthur was only a human without mana, but she knew better than that was not the case.
When he told her everything, she still could not believe! Laura was almost reaching the level of an Official Mage, but now Arthur was already a rank 3 mage, an existence that surpassed her teacher!
Arthur wanted his wives to go with him on this adventure, but they had a job, and that was to turn Odemore into a decent school, one who had the power to contend against the top schools of the central continent.
They needed a better structure, teachers, students, and also gather knowledge, as that was one of the most important aspects of a school. It would take time, so starting as soon as possible would be the best thing for them to do.
"Well, with the power I have now coming back here to see you or help, you will be simple. Sybille, do you wish to stay with them for now?"
"I do, master. The strength I have now is a joke, so I am focusing on getting stronger too!" Sybille said.
Sybille had lots of questions about her imprisonment, but she also knew the strength she had would not be enough for her to dig deeper into that story. Sure, Arthur could help her, but she wanted to have her own strength and not depend on others.
Arthur understood that, and he was happy that Sybille would stay in Odemore, as that was one more strength for them.
"Right, before I leave, can you help me plant something?" Arthur asked.
The bloodline tree he had needed to be planted now that things had finally calmed down. Sybille was an expert with formations, so she hid the tree very well inside the mountain. No one could find it, even if Odemore went to dust.
After that, he said goodbyes to everyone and left Odemore, Laura, alongside him. Laura was in Odemore because of the war, as Seth believed it was the safest place for her. Now that the war was over, she could return to the One Hundred Thunder Academy with no problem.
"What level are you, exactly? You seem so distant from me." Laura asked. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
They had hired a carriage in the closest city, and were enjoying the trip. It would take them a lot longer, but Arthur wanted to take the time to readjust his body, as his strength had drastically increased.
"A secret. Also, how far are you from the rank 1?"
"I should get it in less than a month."
"Good. Keep training hard. I have faith in you!" Arthur said, giving Laura a thumbs up off as a sign of approval.
"Will we see each other again?"
Laura felt both of them were so distant in power that she might never see Arthur again after they arrived at their destination. He had grown to be someone important to her.
"Yes, we will. On this planet, and I know you will meet me somewhere else away from here."
Laura felt the words Arthur said were just to comfort her, but tried her best to believe it, anyway. What she could do was work hard and try to live up to his expectations.
During their trip, some dark mages and bandits attacked them, as that was a normal thing considering the war had to yet end entirely, but Arthur did not need to move, as his presence alone made these attackers pass out, just like what happened back then in Ouroboros.
He was on a completely different level, so why bother with such weak people? Arthur just wished to arrive at the One Hundred Thunder Academy as fast as possible, and when they did, Seth went to welcome them, and even he was shocked.
"What? How?"
Seth asked many questions, trying to understand what was the secret behind Arthur's sudden increase in power, but how could he tell it was because of a one month training using an overpowered system?
Arthur avoided all the questions, and left the school, going on a mission to find his friend, Hiley.
"Goodbye Laura, we will see each other in the future." Arthur said as he vanished from the school.f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎
