[Raven\'s POV]

"Fucking hell..."

I mumbled in annoyance as soon as I entered my dorm.

Classes are still ongoing, I just got a permission to rest from Kendy.

And after exchanging few words with Alec and the others, I left and got back here to rest.

Though, I\'m alone in my room.

Levina is suppose to be with Keara to protect her, and Yuki hasn\'t still come back yet from the mission I gave her.

Because of our master and familiar link, I can feel she\'s doing fine so I\'m not worried, though I\'m lonely...

"Keuk...!"

It was then, I felt a pain again and I immediately grabbed my head.

My head hurts a lot like it\'s being struck by a stone again and again!

It barely got better even after Adelle healing me!

The pain all started when I used <Thought Acceleration>.

Luckily it seems like nobody notice that I\'m in pain earlier in class as my trait <Calm Thinker> helped me maintain my casual face facade.

\'I thought that after going through body reconstruction, I would be able to use <Thought Acceleration> freely... Then what the hell is this brain tearing pain!\'

I exclaimed internally, then I recieved a reply.

[Are you stupid?]

The system asked.

Glaring at the floating window in front of me.

"What the hell is happening?"

I asked for explanation.

[Haaa...]

The system sighed at me as if I\'m being stupid.

\'This bitch can sigh...?\'

I thought inwardly.

[How much CP did you paid for the body reconstruction?]

The system then asked me.

"3000 CP."

I replied immediately.

[That\'s right... Then do you think it will be as effective as the 10,000 CP worth body reconstruction?]

The system then gave me a question as if replying to the weird look I\'m giving it.

I frowned at his words as a theory came to mind.

Then I looked at the [Body Reconstruction] window that I recieved earlier when I finished going through the process.

It\'s not in my <Traits> nor <Skills>, it has it\'s own section.

=====

[Body Reconstruction(ES)]

=====

Looking at the \'(ES)\', I frowned deeper and pointed at it.

"Don\'t tell me this \'(ES)\' means..."

I weakly mumbled... Wishing that what I thought was wrong.

[Yep, \'(ES)\' means \'Early Stage\', you\'re not done in body reconstruction yet lol.]

But my wish was shattered by the system\'s sneering remarks.

A gloomy expression appeared on my face after hearing that.

[Early Stage body reconstruction will readjust your body constitution and make it stronger and sturdier, in short, it\'s focused on your physical body.]

The system then started explaining, I was in no mood asking questions so I just let it talk.

Also, it\'s not just my head that is hurting, my muscles are aching too.

And yes, it started hurting after using my attributes\' characteristics to raise my movements\' speed while under the skill <Thought Acceleration>.

It just got better when Adelle healed me earlier so I didn\'t put much attention to it.

[The reason why your physical body didn\'t hurt as much as before even after applying multiple buffs and enhancement to yourself is because of your new and better body.]

The system stated, it\'s saying something useful so I\'m listening carefully.

[And the reason why your head is still hurt as much as before is because it didn\'t get touched by the reconstruction process.]

The system added.

Opening my mouth after a while, I asked a question.

"The what should I do about it?"

[...]

The system remained silent, then after some seconds...

A new transparent window appeared in front of me.

=====

[Body Reconstruction(MS)]

1.Run for 500,000 Kilometers.

2.Do 200,000 Push-ups.

3.Do 200,000 Sit-ups.

4.Do 200,000 Squats.

5.Lift 100 Kilograms, 500,000 times.

6.Must be at least <C-> rank.

=====

"T-this..."

I stuttered as an incredible shock hit me.

It feels like my whole body became cold as my pace turned pale again.

I was looking at the transparent window in front of me with wide opened mouth.

I couldn\'t even get angry at the new requirements I need to meet to go through another body reconstruction.

All I can feel is dejection.

\'My rank limit is <D> rank, and I need to be at least <C-> rank to go through another phrase of body reconstruction...?\'

I thought as I lifelessly looked at system window in front of me.

[You know, even if you save up 10,000 CP before and purchased the proper body reconstruction, you will still go through an intense pain and crazy training requirements, it\'s just that yours are a bit more harder and crazier... Pfft-]

[... Sorry.]

The System seems to be making fun of me, normally I wouldn\'t let it go but because I\'m so depressed by what I just saw.

I ignored it and focused on my problem instead.

What do I do when there\'s an unsolvable problem that stresses me out?

,m I sleep.

So with that, I lay on my bed and closed my eyes.

\'This day sucks, let\'s try my luck for tomorrow, also... I need bigger clothes.\'

I thought and started dozing of minutes later as I\'m still pretty exhausted.

***

Somewhere inside the Lunar Academy.

In a different male dormitory that\'s way different on where Raven is staying.

This said dormitory was way luxurious compared to where Raven is.

The whole building in subject was only consisting of 11 floors.

The 1st to 9th floor have 3 medium luxurious rooms, while the 10th floor only have 2 large rooms.

And the 11th floor. The very top floor of the building, is a whole dorm only for a one person!

It\'s big, considering that the building is 420 square meters big.

And the dormitory where Raven is staying is only half of that size!

It might be too opulence for others, but this dormitory is only for those who are in top 20-50 of the freshmen students!

Anyway, in the top floor of this dormitory, in the biggest room of the said dormitory.

To be precise, in Sean\'s room.

There\'s an ongoing meeting consisting of 3 people.

"We can\'t keep an eye to him anymore as that dumb professor just couldn\'t hold himself back and is currently suspended."

Sean muttered with a clearly annoyed voice.

"And that bitch professor didn\'t even scratched Raven...!"

Sean was barely holding himself back from rampaging.

"Raven..."

Sean mumbled as he remembered what Raven did to him.

He frowned as his face ached a bit, Sean remembered being slapped and humiliated by Raven in the cafeteria.

And since then, he started constructing a plan on how to get back at Raven.

"You paid a professor to keep an eye to Raven?"

Ervin then muttered with a genuine shocked, he doesn\'t know anything about it.

Sean looked at Ervin with a frown.

As a matter of fact, Sean have a lot of things that he\'s hiding to Ervin.

After some few seconds of looking at Ervin, Sean opened his mouth.

"I did that to make sure Raven wouldn\'t attack any of our group members."

Sean said, Ervin still had his doubts but chose to ignore it as he\'s been friends with Sean since their childhood.

"Ervin, can you leave Barry and me for a bit?"

Seand then asked Ervin a favor.

"Sure."

Ervin who doesn\'t have much to say anyway, decided to obey Sean\'s words.

Sean watched Ervin\'s muscular back getting smaller as he approach the door, and not long.

Click-

He left.

After making sure that Ervin wasn\'t around anymore, Sean faced Barry and opened his mouth.

"Now that we\'re alone, how\'s the assasins we hired?"

He asked.

Barry then turned pale after hearing that question.

He trembled a bit before forcefully speaking.

"T-the assasins we hired to kill R-Raven\'s family...were found dead, and it looks like they were killed one-sidedly..."

There\'s a slight shaking in Barry\'s voice as he stuttered and nervously spoke.

"It looks like Raven\'s family is being protected by someone strong..."

Barry added, prompting Sean that Raven isn\'t as normal as what he seems on the outside appearance.

Hearing his words and understanding what Barry means made Sean\'s mood worse.

Sean tightly clenched his hands into fists to the point that his nails dug through his palms intensely, making him bleed a little.

But Sean didn\'t mind that as he\'s focus on blaming Raven.

"Why... Things..aren\'t going...on.my..way."

Sean grumbled as he gnash his teeth together from time to time to prevent himself from screaming.

Barry started sweating profusely as Sean is emitting a murderous intent, making it harder for him to breath normally.

"In the assessment test..."

Sean mumbled then after calming himself a little.

"In the assessment test, I\'m gonna make you experience hell!"

Bang!

Sean exclaimed and punched the table near him, shattering it to pieces.

Barry flinched after seeing that and decided to follow Sean until the end as he doesn\'t want to be enemies with him.

\'Raven... Your life will be hell, too bad for you.\'

Barry thought as a small smile appeared on his face.

But all of what happened in the room just now, even earlier of the day or yesterday, everything was witnessed by someone!

Starting from 2 days ago, until now.

Sean\'s whole room was being observed by that someone!

And that someone is currently at the corner of the room, in a small hidden place that no one will pay attention to.

That someone is using a <Stealth> skill, making their presence more undetectable!

They didn\'t take their eyes away from Sean every time he\'s in the room...

And not long, Barry left.

As soon as Barry left, Sean stood up from the sofa where he\'s sitting all this time.

Sean walked toward a painting of himself that\'s hang on the wall, then when he stopped in front of it, he removed it.

And a safe behind the painting was revealed!

-Kyuu...

Yuki, who\'s watching everything from a small hole in the bed frame tweeted quietly as she thought her mission will soon be done and she can finally meet Raven and the others.
