"Damn... my magic control didn't go up... I can't complain about those juicy stats though." David tapped around his status, feeling both mana and flux flowing through his body.

"Body... enhancement? Seems kind of overpowered... well, guess it's another skill I'm going to grind the crap out of." David looked at the effects of the {Body Enhancement} skill.

'Oh shit! I need to wake up now! System, bring me out of the {Personal Space}!' he ordered.

*Whoosh!*

.

**(Nurse's Office)**

.

David felt faint, but he could open his eyes, but all he saw was the ceiling, "Where... am I?" he muttered out.

Unexpectedly, he wasn't in some sort of crater but felt that he was lying on something soft.

David looked to the side, and found a man in a lab coat with glasses next to him, "Oh! You're finally awake!"

"What? A... doctor? Am I in the academy's hospital right now?" David scratched his head, rubbing his tired eyes.

"Mn. Correct, we are in the 'hospital' of the academy. You've been asleep for multiple hours now, well... it's quite normal considering who you've fought with." The nurse sighed.

Remembering how David had gone through another evolution, he looked at himself to find out how only their eye color and skin color had changed.

Considering it did change very slowly in the period of 3+ hours, so it didn't alert the nurses as they could tell that it was helping him recover.

"You've been out for three hours... your body seems to have changed as well. Your constitution is quite good, being mixed with a dragon-like bloodline." the nurse looked at the documents in front of him.

'Right... I did reveal quite a bit...' David woke up from his sleepiness and asked, "What about my brother, Bennett? Is he still awake?"

The male nurse turned to look at him and nodded, "Of course, they were brought in here way earlier than you with much more superficial injuries. He's back in his dorms by now."

"Thank you for saving me." he bowed.

"You don't need to bow, this is our job as our profession. We've checked your body already, you may leave anytime." he waved it off.

"Oh... just letting you know, since you're a student with the recommended status, your uniform has cleaned itself, so we didn't change your clothes." the nurse reminded him.

Nodding, David went sat up and hopped off the patient's bed, and walked out of the hospital after thanking the nurse again.

"That was fucking close..." seeing him leave, the nurse wiped his face and the other nurses came in.

"He's gone, right?" they ask at the same time.

"Yes... but... his aura. We need to report this to the headmaster. Now." he ordered.

"I'll go then." a nurse spoke up.

"We'll be counting on you then." the other nurses nodded in agreement with his statement.

.

**(Dorms)**

.

Bennett was somewhat stressed and was pacing around the living room, "Maybe... I should go back to the nurse's office..." he muttered.

He did trust the academy, well... he has to, they have several experts with them, so they must have to be able to help him wake up.

*Knock Knock Knock*

"Uh? Y-yes, hello?" He opened the door without thinking.

David was at the door to the dorm, and gave an awkward wave, "Hey... I'm fine now."

"Um... du-?" David was pulled into the dorm before he could finish his sentence.

Well... David could've dodged easily, but he let Bennett drag him onto the couch.

"Are you ok? Hurt anywhere? Why did they discharge you so quickly?" Bennett checked all over David's body.

Backing up a bit, David hugged himself, "Hey... I'm fine, no need to check me, man."

"You're fine right?"

"Yes... I'm fine."

"Really?"

David's brow twitched, but held it in as he did understand he worried he was and pulled up his uniform, "Here... no injuries... see?"

"Yeah... ok..." he nodded shyly.

'I feel like I'm coaxing a god damn child...' David closed his eyes and sighed in slight frustration.

"Oh! Did you have anything to eat before you got here?" Bennett lifted his head.

"N-no? Why?" David asked.

He pulled out a large bowl of food, "Well... I thought you wouldn't get to eat since you might come here first thing after you've awoken from your coma, so here..." he placed it on the table.

There wasn't too much on the table, just a large bowl of fresh shepherd's pie.

David sat in the dining room and began to dig in after he grabbed his spoon.

They began to talk about their experiences when they were fighting with Mr. Gluri today.

"Really? A samurai outfit!? Wow, we really did seem to underestimate how strong people are here." Bennet was surprised at how long David was able to last.

Seeing him in his own thoughts, he nudged him, "Oh, right. What do we have for tomorrow again? I still feel slightly sloppy, so please talk a bit slower." David asked.

"Well, from the handbook, we should be with Mr. Gluri again tomorrow, but for some regular sparring... and talking about other classes as well." Bennett read from his student handbook.

"Mn... I see." David finished the bowl and washed them using some water magic before placing them on the rack.

"It shouldn't be too late... wanna go to the virtual arena?" David nudged Bennett.

"But..." He wanted to refute.

David sighed, "Come on, we just got our asses beat. Yes, he's a more experienced and a higher tier being than us, but it still hurts doesn't it? Considering how our classmates are and how schools like this usually operate, they're going to tell us about something like a monthly rating, and now we have to compete with each other. We might as well train now so we don't regret this later, man."

"I-uh... fine... but are you sure? You just got out of the nurse's office..." Bennett was worried.

"We're doing this in the virtual world... we might as well use it, even if it's only for ten minutes." he reasoned and started to walk away.

Nodding in defeat, Bennett sighed and followed, "I'm coming!"
