God's Eyes

When everyone gathered, Jason followed suit as they formed a semicircle around the Instructor.

It was the first time for Jason to look at the Instructor with his brown hair and eyes, while his facial features couldn′t be considered handsome, at most average.

He looked like he was around 30 years old but in the current era, nobody could really say how old one was from the outer appearance.

Opening his mana eyes, Jason noticed that the Instructor was at the beginning of the magus rank with a few drops of liquefied mana inside his mana core, which was quite good.

He wondered if this was the average strength from teachers in the Vanguard affiliated school or what exactly the average would be.

Maybe only headteachers from the best classes were slightly stronger but still not at the Grandmagus rank, or were they?

Jason didn′t know it but his guess was roughly right.

Being at the Magus rank was considered the average strength for teachers from the affiliated schools, while Grandmagus ranks were advanced teachers for special courses at the main schools with an extremely high wage and exceptional rights, including privileges for the mana gathering platform that was connected to the mana vein and many more advantages.

When everyone was gathered, Instructor Briann asked various questions about the Tier-1 Technique they learned through the whole week, called [Weaponry Knight].

The technique focused on close combat with swords, spears, axes, and all variant weapons of it, while daggers, archery, and other similar combat styles were more neglected.

One could still use daggers with the Weaponry Knight technique, but the effect would most likely be a little bit worse compared to the formerly named weapons.

While Jason listened to the Instructor and his classmates carefully and he noticed that his daggers were relatively long and almost comparable to short swords, which would mean he would be relatively compatible with the technique his other classmates learned during the whole week.

Brian noticed Jason listening carefully which reduced his anger gradually, even if he was still slightly annoyed.

He was a respected Instructor and known for his ambition to teach his students diligently, as long as they tried hard he would always help them.

After he finished asking his students questions, he began to explain some important details as Brian turned to Jason who listened with sharp ears.

Looking into each other's eyes, Briann was astonished to see that Jason had golden eyes which were relatively uncommon and he almost immediately began to wonder if he had a special trait.

After pondering for a moment, he asked the question he was curious about, even if some would think it was rude to ask their student.

"Why were you not in class during the whole week? You missed important lessons and your classmates are far above you in terms of understanding the Weaponry Knight technique.

Furthermore, it looks like your mana core is also the weakest among your classmates…

Your teacher told me you would not come back this week because of some circumstances but the class rankings will start in 10 days and you′ll only slow down your classmates like that!"

Jason frowned slightly and he would definitely not say the truth about what happened throughout his last week.

Somehow Jason didn't like their Instructor, as his eyes were unpleasant to look at.

As such he was extremely annoyed and the anger pain accumulated within caused him to say

"I slept" without anything else…

His classmates were also curious about what Jason did during the whole week, they used to comprehend the Weaponry Knight technique to their best capabilities.

Figuring out that Jason slept, some almost fell to the ground as they leaned closer to Jason in order to hear his answer.

Instructor Brian who was already slightly calmed down fumed in anger…

`He is lazy and only wants to slow down his classmates during the class battles? Why was he even accepted into schools? Are we so low now?!`

This was what he thought as he stepped closer to Jason.

"If you slept, you should have enough energy to spar with me, am I right?" With a calm facial expression but burning eyes, Jason noticed that he had probably made a mistake

Jason could only sight as he nodded his head.

Not even a minute passed and both stood opposite each other, while Instructor Brian was `generous` enough to provide Jason with an advantage of one level as he reduced his strength to the 7th Novice rank.

When their Instructor said, he would reduce his strength to the 7th Novice rank, Jason′s classmates were confused.

Wasn′t that a little bit unfair? Jason is only at the 6th Novice rank.

Furthermore, he has less combat experience than a veterinarian hunter, while he unfamiliar with a Tiered combat technique.

This was only until someone cried out in shock

"8th Novice rank?!?!?! HOW?" One of the classmates who stood the closest to Jason shouted, as he scanned Jason′s mana core out of reflex.

`Huh` Everyone's eyes widened as they also released their mana to scan Jason′s mana core.

The students began to either cry out in shock, rubbing their eyes, doubting their ability to determine the rank of a mana core, causing almost everyone to doubt their capabilities.

In everyone's memory, Jason was only at the 6th Novice rank a week before.

How????

What did Jason do during the last week to in order increase his mana core rank by two levels??

Some of them saw Jason on Sunday and at this time, he was still at the 6th Novice rank, and right now they were looking at him with jealousy as they thought Jason received an heaven like treasure from his family, enabling him to increase his mana core in such a short amount of time.

They didn't know that Jason didn′t have any relatives left, except the Fler′s, who were obviously not related by blood with him.

The Fler′s would′ve never been able to purchase such a treasure.

Even if they could, why would they do something like that for Jason?

Wouldn't they rather purchase something for their own children?

Never would Jason′s classmates think that the whole week was more than a little bit horrifying for Jason and that he wanted to die thousands of times.

He looked calm right now, but Jason noticed that his Instructor wanted to teach him a lesson, which was somehow like a cliché, he had often heard about it when he listened to stories and fairy tales.

Instructor Brian noticed the turmoil outside the combat ring, and he also heard them gossiping causing him to show an astonished expression.

′Huh? Did he increase his mana core rank by two levels in 5 days? Is he a pampered child??.. Well I just lecture him and afterward, he′ll probably learn how to behave`

When everyone got into position, Jason took out his two daggers from his storage as he got into the foundational stance for fights with dual-daggers.

Brian noted that Jason′s stance was without any flaws as he nodded in approval, giving Jason secretly a few extra points in his mind.

The fight started almost instantly and Jason bent down, enhancing his lower body with mana in order to enhance his speed to his maximum capabilities.

He was still not familiar with the increase of mana he received after breaking into the 8th Novice rank and the additionally amplificated amount of strength from Scorpio, which caused Jason to be faster than he initially estimated.

Both were only around 30 meters apart from each other and Jason′s explosive start, catapulted him closer by around 4 meters within a moment.

Brian wouldn′t stay still, waiting for Jason without moving and both charged at each other.

Only two seconds later, both were already in front of each other as Brian swung his tempered wooden longsword at Jason with a quick and precise movement, which Jason was barely able to avoid.

He was slightly late to evade it perfectly and he had to use his dagger to divert the trajectory of Brian's sword, when a sudden kick was initiated by him, causing Jason to almost lose his balance.

With a jump to the side, he could avoid getting hit frontally but Jason′s leg was still slightly affected by the sudden kick.

Meanwhile, Brian was astonished that the student in front of him was able to avoid his combined attack without that much difficulty as he thought Jason had never really fought a life and death battle.

Without combat experience, Jason would have never been able to predict his attack and avoid it without sustaining a serious injury, as the succession of his attack was extremely smooth, without any wasted second.

He had restricted his strength to the 7th Novice rank but suppressing his physically tempered body to such a low level was almost impossible and Brian estimated that even a 9th Novice or newly advanced Adept ranks would be unable to avoid his attack.

Suddenly Jason′s mind went into some sort of bloodlust after receiving a hit from the Instructors kick.

The pain he felt was not even nearly comparable to the torture he endured a few days ago, but somehow his mind thought this battle was rather a life and death fight than a spar when Jason stood up after a roll in order to prevent injuring himself from the side-jump.

His gentle, sympathetic, and calm eyes that attracted and calmed down many classmates subconsciously changed completely, into some sort of cruel and almost fiendish eyes, without any trace of kindness.

It was as if Jason′s golden eyes were filled with wrath and the pure desire to kill his opponent.

Brian was distracted for a quarter second because he was thinking about his students' quick thinking, when Jason appeared right behind him, without any notice.

His hair stood up as he instinctively sensed a thick condensed aura of killing intent behind him, which would eradicate him if he wouldn′t do anything right now.

Almost immediately Instructor Brian′s back was drenched in cold sweat.

Fortunately enough, his senses were not restricted, otherwise, he would be dead without noticing what was going on.

He had never felt like this and it seemed like he was going to die, if he didn't do something as he immediately released the restrictions, as his whole suppressed might of a magus rank was released, blasting Jason into the protection mechanism of the combat arena.

Jason regained his senses when he was pushed out of the protective sphere, which saved his life.

Noticing there was something wrong with his mind, Jason felt the desire to kill Brian, after he received the Instructor′s hit.

This hit caused the subdued anger to intensify, filling his mind, without leaving any trace of reluctance.

This caused him to fear himself and he would have to tell his teacher as soon as possible in order to avoid accidents like that to happen ever again.

`If his opponent wasn't an instructor and one of his classmates, would he have killed them? `

Jason didn′t know and it scared him somehow.
