Chapter 47: Raids!
The second the instructors appeared, all the students lined up, no one made a sound, no one brought up the dead, no one did anything anymore, Even Draco's Main body was floating comfortably in the sky while watching.
Now this much was just to show how much respect these instructors and the Academy held in the students' hearts.
"Listen well Students, many of you have formed groups and exterminated a lot of tribes of monsters and dungeons these past 3 days, and as we have informed you before, we will now move as entire groups led by one instructor to raid higher-ranking tribes close to the inner zone of the Forest." The bespectacled professor who was leading the rest stood in front and spoke in a commanding and low voice that, through magic and enhanced senses, reached the ears of everyone in the clearing.
"As You've seen before, almost every single Monster tribe is constituted of F-Rank Monsters and a single E-Rank leader; these are called E-Rank Tribes."
"However, that is because you were stationed all around the outskirts of the forest, but from this Clearing onwards is just D-Rank Tribes and Upwards to C and most Leaders of these Trbes can easily kill a bunch of 2nd or 3rd years, even 4th Years will have problems dealing with them, so that is why we as Instructors will lead the Raids to make sure you can grow faster, but if you die, there's nothing we can do for you."
"Now Students, You will follow your Instructors and for 7 days exterminate as many Tribes as you can to gain Experience and hopefully Evolve before your 4th Year. These kinds of Events do not come often so make good use of it, that's it, Disperse!" And so, the Students who were already lined with their instructors in the lead, Dispersed throughout the entire Intersection Between the Outer and Inner Cores of the Forest.
A lot of eyes were picking targets, plans were being formed, and one particular being... Was grinning evilly.

The Great Empire Of Devania, Within The Emperor's Research Room,
"Aaaaand, DONE!" The Emperor who didn't move from his sport for months, finally added the last piece to his construct.
If one remembers, it was mentioned that the Emperor was an EX-Rank being who could evolve at any time but didn't to avoid being transferred to the prison. But this wasn't entirely true, and that is because...
"Now I can go to the Prison with peace of mind." That is right, the Emperor was planning to go to the Prison, now it was a Nightmare to others due to reasons like the difficulty for the Transcendent Rank Powerhouses who just broke through, the mission one has to take there in order to get out, and lastly, the time it takes, On average, a being spends Thousands of years there and that is a lot even for a Transcendent with an average lifespan of 50k Years.
But, who was he? He was the Savior, The Anomaly, The Supreme Genius, He... Was the first one to create a device that allowed him to teleport back and forth from the Prison and to this room any time he wanted as long as it accumulated enough energy which by his estimation would take 1 month each time.
Now this was an achievement, it was a huge one in fact, He could only spend 1 month here before he had to be transported back and there were multiple other drawbacks similar to how he could only teleport himself back, meaning he would have to leave his wives, children, and mother here for the current time.
But, once he got there he was certain it won't take him a 100 years before he figures out a way to fix all of these problems and a thousand year at most to finish whatever he had to do there and proudly come back to expand his Empire all the way to the Central Continent.
Something no other race dared to do, but he could, because it will benefit everyone and he held contact with one of the strongest beings out there that could help him run everything smoothly.
Looking at his creation Proudly, The Emperor, thought of his mother, wives, and children, and smiled.
"Hehe, it's been months am beyond pent up."
Getting up from his seat, he slowly walked towards the door, opening it to see stairs going upwards, when the Emperor got out what welcomed him was his empty Throne room, he used his senses, and the second he noticed his mother she did too, and she immediately hid herself.
"..." The Emperor was silent.
"Haaaaa! Maybe I shouldn't peep at her anymore..." He said with a loong sigh.
His mother who was a lonely widow in love... Was in her beloved's room(without him knowing)... Doing something unspeakable(Without Him Knowing)... While calling his name again and again(Without Him Knowing)...
The poor man David, who was sent as the commander of the army aiming for the Heart of the Forest, was feeling very sick these days, as if someone were calling him, screaming his name, wanting him so badly, The only thing he knew was that if only it was who he wanted her to be, but... That's unlikely, right? The poor commander thought while asking the skies.
Back to the Emperor, who didn't search for nor speak with his mother because he knew it would take a while before she got over her embarrassment enough to talk with him, and so... He smiled mischievously as he found who he was looking for.
"[Teleport]!" The Emperor spoke softly.
*Phwt*
Whatever happened afterwards... will only be known by the 15 beings.
