BXBX NOVEL Chapter 91 - Weaponry Knight
`F**K ...don\'t be dead, kid!` he just thought when he turned around, only to see that Jason was safe and sound, looking around with a gentle smile, that seemed to be a little bit embarrassed.
His classmates were shocked after witnessing Jason almost killing their instructor and they told themself to not provoke him ever again, even if they seemed to be stronger.
If one looked closer, one could even see a small cut at Instructor Brian′s neck, that was healing within seconds.
Brian ran up to Jason, inquiring about his health and how he felt.
The pressure from a magus rank was nothing to joke about but Jason seemed oddly fine as he smiled at his teacher gently.
`Did he really emit such a terrifying killing intent just a few seconds ago?` Brian shuddered, and he would have to ask the headteacher of this class about the incident.
But even so, he had to approve Jason′s combat prowess.
Even if he was only at the 8th-Novice rank, he believed with the dense killing intent he emitted, Jason would be able to frighten and surprise even some intermediate-Adept ranks without much combat experience.
Wondering how Jason was able to condense such a thick and terrifying killing intent at such a young age, he immediately disregarded his previous opinion about the black-haired youth being a pampered child or even lazy.
Looking at Jason, he wondered how terrifying he would become in the future.
A few minutes passed and Jason took Scorpio back on his shoulder who watched Jason′s battle from the site.
When Jason emitted his thick killing intent, Scorpio\'s eyes also turned red and he was about to attack Jason′s opponent, even if it meant sacrificing his life.
Luckily something like that didn′t happen and Jason was uninjured thanks to the protective measures from the combat arena.
Otherwise, Jason would straight fly into the building walls and break some of his bones.
At least that was considered as the best outcome.
Every student began to gossip about the spar if one could call it that and it took some time before Instructor Brian had the situation under control.
After his surroundings were silent, Brian decided to make teams of two to practice the Weaponry Knight′s technique.
Because their numbers were not even, Brain also participated in the practice but apparently, nobody wanted to train with him, which left Jason and him alone.
He was simple as he gazed into Jason\'s eyes, which were filled with kindness, causing Brain to be slightly uncomfortable before he apologized about his mana outburst.
"No problem, otherwise you would be dead right now" Jason said calmly, smiling gently and Brain shuttered about the youth′s calmness, thinking that the youth in front of him was weird.
Never would Brain think that Jason endured thousands of deaths and he was now somehow used to thinking about death.
It made even Jason himself uncomfortable.
After Brain sent him the guide about the Tier-1 Weaponry Knight technique, he read the Introduction before Brain explained him all kinds of movements.
Jason opened his mana eyes and he could perfectly see the flow of mana during the movements, causing his comprehension to soar to another level.
After only a few tries, Jason understood the first sequence, and a few hours later his understanding was most likely deeper compared to the majority, which shocked Brain greatly.
`A GENIUS!!` He thought and he would have to tell that to the Class teacher too after his lesson ended in order to nurture such a treasure.
Even if Brian was only a normal Instructor and not in charge of any particular class, he was still someone who likes seeing someone from lower classes bash the rich and pampered students with a higher starting point.
Jason′s background or his soul-awakening would have to be bad to enter the 75 class of the worst affiliated school and his mana core rank was also not that great.
In the beginning, he thought that Jason′s background might still be supporting him and he found only out that Jason was an orphan after their spar.
As such he wondered, how far Jason would be able to go in 10 days with his teachings and maybe the responsible teacher.
**
It was Friday afternoon, after practicing the Heaven\'s Hell technique inside the shuttle, Jason was reading the Weaponry Knight technique diligently.
Meanwhile, Instructor Brian told everything that happened to Mr.Greil who got a little bit worried after hearing that Jason condensed one of a more advanced type of killing intent, almost killing Brian.
`UGhh… Why was I so stupid?! Can he handle it himself? Probably not if he is in a taxing fight..` But it was at least a good sign that Jason regained his normal demeanor after being hit a single time.
`If Jason can control the killing intent, it might as well increase his combat prowess for the upcoming class battles.`
Till also heard that Jason was exceptionally talented in his understanding of the Weaponry Knight technique, which didn′t really astonish him.
Someone with Mana-eyes can easily read the mana flow. As such it\'s much easier to learn techniques that involved the circulation of mana.
Adding Jason′s exceptional comprehension ability and the formed killing intent, Till decided to help Jason out, with the control of Jason′s killing intent during the following week, while the other students would continue learning the Tier-1 Weaponry Knight technique.
It was only possible for Jason to condense the killing intent because he endured multiple deaths which made Till feel extremely guilty but it could also be seen as an opportunity.
Normally, it would take an extremely long time and thousands of arduous battles to condense a simple kind of killing intent.
Jason′s killing intent was already condensed and extremely terrifying according to Brian, who also condensed a killing intent.
Instructor Brian also said that his killing intent could be considered a joke if compared to Jason′s.
He was also curious and worried about a prodigious student with a high battle talent and comprehension ability.
They began to make plans about Jason′s progress.
In the end, both decided to let Jason continue learning the Weaponry Knight technique in the morning, while the afternoon would be used to understand the killing intent and how to let it emerge and disappear within one′s control.
Jason was still sitting at home reading through the Weaponry Knight manual and it looked like he could read, understand, and completely comprehend everything much faster compared to a week ago.
Thinking back to the time where he refined his brain, Jason shuttered in fear.
But even so, right now it looked like it was extremely beneficial.
Not only, was his thinking ability much faster, but he could also read and memorize everything within a shorter time compared to before.
Jason decided to test out his capacity while reading a few pages of the beastarium.
In the end, he figured out that he only had to read the pages two or at most three times in order to completely memorize them.
Additionally, a single page could be read within five minutes at most, including the fact, that some special abilities and characteristics were detailed described within these books.
This feat alone could already be considered "Insane" and even if Jason was still anxious about the traumata, he received from the pain he endured, he was still alive and received many benefits.
This included the continuous passively gathering and refining of mana without having to lift a single finger.
Comparing his three-hour actively absorbing and refining of mana, with continuously doing it without doing anything, Jason estimated that absorbing the mana continuously brought him a cultivation speed increasement between three to four times, which was truly insane.
When he was at home, Jason also tested how beneficial it would be to include his active mana gathering and absorbing.
The result was satisfying and his mana gathering speed increased even more.
In the end, Jason concluded that it wouldn′t be long until he would reach the same ranks as his classmates.
He was extremely happy to have received so many benefits in exchange to endure endless pain.
Right now only a small trauma was left, which caused the desire to kill his Instructor today due to the hit he received from him and Jason knew he had to fix that.
Even so, Jason was confident that his decision was correct.
If he wanted to get stronger, he would need to enhance his mana core rank as soon as possible and increase the strength of his soulbonds.
The more time passed, the stronger Jason′s desire to reach higher ranks became.
Almost every day, he thought about his mother and her getting killed four years ago and once he got stronger, he would question the Cerus family who the mysterious heir was that killed his mother.
Once found out, he would do something, even if he was still unsure what… Was the mysterious heir resenting his behavior or still behaving like a pampered child who could kill everyone he or maybe she wanted? Would he kill his mother′s murderer or not?
But right now Jason couldn\'t afford to get distracted.
Instructor Brain showed him the first sequences for the Weaponry Knight technique.
After reading through the first few hundred pages with a tempestuous speed, he searched for Greg who could spar with him.
While Jason searched for Greg, he found Malia and Gabriella preparing dinner and it was only now that Jason noticed, that it was already dinner time.
He decided to help out preparing dinner and to wait until dinner was over in order to ask Greg to spar with him.
Jason wasn\'t much of a talker but that was definitely not the case with Malia and her mother.
Previously Jason thought Malia was rather cold but that was only her facade because she was gentle and kind.
They talked with each other all the time and it was only when dinner was fully prepared that Mark and Greg came down.
Once dinner was over, Jason almost dragged Greg to the courtyard with the combat arena.
Normally Greg was titled as battle maniac but somehow it seemed as if Jason was going to dispute his title soon.
Greg couldn′t accept that and he restricted his strength to the 6th Novice rank only to find out that Jason′s mana core reached the 8th Novice rank.
"JASON?!!? 8th Novice rank….?" Greg said while his mouth twitched violently….
`Wasn\'t he just too fast??? Is he cheating??!?!`
