Chapter 446: Chapter 446: 3 Months
 

“You have a full two years. Now that you have the Writer’s Association’s help, they have found a suitable target for you. You can spend more time preparing for the battle.”

“Regarding the situation of the habitat, I will extract it from the exploration reports of the Knight Regiment for you.”

“Remember, your target isn’t a newly transformed [Demon], but a Mature Body with some history and experience in hunting.”

“With your current strength, even if you unleash the potential hidden within you, there is still a great risk. Give yourself six months to a year to prepare for the battle.”

“On the existing basis, continue to deeply explore the potential of the Hundred Beasts, while finding a way to obtain a piece of equipment powerful enough to arm yourself.”

Abe nodded, “Ok…”

“Abe, you can definitely stand on a higher position than me to overlook this world. This current stage is a very important step, no matter how much pressure you are under, you must withstand it.”

“I will definitely do it.”

Abe’s expression and heart were both very determined.

However, after returning to his dormitory to review the detailed texts and diagrams in the intelligence, he seemed to want to find an opportunity to drink with friends to relieve his worries.

Abe, who had more than ten real combat training sessions every day, had a clear understanding of his own abilities and limits.

At this stage, he was simply not capable of defeating such a demon alone.

……

The perspective switches.

It has been three months since Han Dong completed the single-player Fate event-“Mist”.

During this time, Han Dong perfectly balanced resting and studying, trying to maximize the level of [Mysticism] and [Library] during the Seed Period.

Because of the upper limit issue.

Han Dong no longer forced himself to study, but instead switched to a state of restorative learning.

He gradually spends longer and longer time in the library daily, scanning books from various fields.

Once, Han Dong learned a method from a book called Basic Plant Therapy that could simplify “Life Diversion”, making the conversion of energy and life more efficient.

By browsing various kinds of books, Han Dong’s goal was to have a comprehensive understanding of the ‘Magic system’, and optimize the magic’s energy consumption as much as possible.

As for the problem of “macromolecules”, Han Dong also used Dumps’ powers in the civilian area to test it on ordinary civilians who had been visually polluted, and it worked very well.

As long as it can be mass-produced, the money owed to Dumps can be paid off.

…

Whirr, whirr!

Today Han Dong read until eight o’clock in the evening. When he got up, raindrops the size of soybeans were hitting the glass windows fiercely.

Just as Han Dong was preparing to cover his body with the coat of the Bird Beak Doctor and return to the dormitory in the heavy rain.

An umbrella was opened over Han Dong’s head.

“Let’s go back together! Miss Hera needs to prepare the meeting speech for tomorrow, so I don’t need to accompany her tonight.”

The person holding the umbrella for Han Dong was Dumps.

Today, he was wearing a round collar long coat, which covered half of his face, but it couldn’t hide his handsome face.

Now, Han Dong and Dumps are considered third-year students. Quite a few underclass female students who recognized Dumps cast envious glances.

They wished they could enjoy the treatment Han Dong was receiving.

Moreover, considering Han Dong’s short and slim appearance and his pitiful face, they were often seen together, and many rumors had spread around the library.

Han Dong asked, “Speaking of which, I haven’t seen you for more than two weeks… Where have you been?”

“I went to the Fate Space and almost got killed.”

“Huh! What difficulty level was it?”

“Four and a half stars, the curse-type events- ‘The Ring at Midnight’. There were only me and a student with extremely good luck in the hastily formed small team. We barely managed to clear the event.”

Although it sounded terrifying, Dumps was quite casual, he didn’t look like someone who had just returned from the brink of death.

Nobody knew what happened during the Fate Event.

“So, is your seed also saturated?”

“Yes! Saturating in advance is a good thing, it gives us more time to prepare… Nicholas, have you found your target? With the backing of the Crow Prophet, it should be quite convenient to find the target, right?”

“Nope, I haven’t asked the teacher for help.”

Dumps pushed his monocle, “Since you also have no clues, let’s free up some time on our next trip and try finding targets outside the city, how about it?”

“Alright.”

The two of them had their respective web of connections outside the city, and the exchange of information would double the probability of finding suitable targets.

“For the average Apprentice Knight, if they want to find a suitable target, they usually buy information from the writers… After all, the writers can leave the Holy City through the dream and spy on the situation outside the city in a special state.

However, let’s not go down that path, haha.”

Dumps gave an awkward smile.

Because of the previous Secret Stone event, both of them were targeted by big-time crooks in the Holy City, and Mr. Black White directly revealed the other party’s identity.

Both of them tried as much as possible not to get in touch with the Writer’s Association.

Ti-ta-Ti-ta!

During the carriage ride from the [Library] to the dormitory area.

Through the window, Han Dong caught a glimpse of a boy sitting alone on a stone bench by the road in the night rain, one hand holding a bottle of wine and the other hand covering his forehead… During his university years in his previous life, Han Dong often saw ‘heartbroken men’ like this.

“Hey! Stop the car!”

Han Dong immediately called to stop the car and got off the car with Dumps.

The person sitting in the night rain drinking gloomily is Abe, who is hailed as the student with the greatest talent in this term.

“Abe!? What happened?”

Han Dong, who was on the carriage, saw his conspicuous white hair and the beast ears revealed after his true nature was exposed by drinking, at first glance.

Han Dong thought he had seen wrong, after all, Abe was the grandson of Captain Kaimon, how could he be so downcast.

“I’m having a tough time… I’m having a tough time…”

Abe, already completely drunk, kept repeating himself, seemingly having suffered an unprecedented blow.

With no other option, Han Dong had to carry him onto the carriage.

Gulp~~~As soon as Han Dong was about to put Abe down, he immediately vomited all over Han Dong.

Han Dong was helpless, “Brother Dumps… what happened to Abe?”

“It’s probably because the pressure and demands from Captain Kaimon were too high, nine times out of ten it’s about [Breaking Seed]… Nicholas, bring Abe to my dormitory tonight, we three have the same goal anyway, let’s discuss Breaking Seed together.”

“Ok.”

……

On the other end.

At the door of Han Dong’s dormitory.

After knowing that Han Dong had returned from the Fate Space, Mia Seminovich, carrying the Demon Sword, would wait here every day and, whenever she got a chance, she would follow Han Dong back to the dormitory.

Even if she was allowed to sleep on the sofa, Mia was very willing.

But she had been waiting all night and Han Dong didn’t return.

“Jerk! He must have gone out messing around with that guy Dumps again!”
