Bahari Academy(2)

La'el walking around looking for some inn. He could see people the same age as him manning a shop by the side of the road.

There are also people who still carry bags like him.

"Hey junior !"

Seeing the person running over screaming, La'el pointed at himself to confirm.

"Yeah ! you are that wearing blue clothes ! are you looking for a place to stay ?"

"No. I already have one"

Although he didn't, La'el knows people like this. They'll take people to crappy places and raise the price.

"ha ha ! don't lie, you looked around from earlier"

"Senior, I just want to take a walk for a bit, ok?"

"Ah come on, i know what you're thinking about. Reasonable price. okay?"

"Sigh.. how much ?"

"1 gold for 3 days"

"Good bye"

Academy just give him 20 gold a month, he knows that guy is crank up the price.

"A week ! 1 gold for a week ! couldn't be less than that."

"4 gold for 5 weeks, then i'll go with you"

"it is only enough to pay the rent of the land"

"I won't talk to other freshman that your place is increasing the price"

"Haih.. let's go then"

La'el followed that guy to the place he offered, after talk a while La'el know that guy is called Berto.

He has been in the academy for 2 years. Bahari only opens registration once every 2 years. It can be interpreted that Berto is only one generation above him.

"May i ask your tier ?"

La'el did not answer Berto's question directly, after thinking for a while he opened his mouth.

"Low-Tier 7 stars. And you ?"

"Wow ! I remember when I just entered the academy I was only 5 stars. Now i'am Low-tier 10 stars"

La'el looked at Berto carefully, this person was definitely no longer a low-tier.

Although he can't tell how much stars Berto have, he could confirm Berto was mid-tier.

"Hahh.. I really miss honest people in the village"

"Sorry ? did you say anything ?"

"Nothing, is it still far away ?"

"About 5 more minutes"

Although La'el could see how big the academy was from the outside, he was still in awe after walking directly in it.

While walking, La'el's sight was attracted by a large round building

"Hey Berto, What's that ?"

"Hmm ? Ah, that's Hector's Round Fighting or HRF. You can make a lot of money if you become a fighter there. After all, the entry ticket is 50 silver for one person"

"I'll pay the entrance fee if you will be my tour guide"

"If you pay for dinner too then i do"

"Deal. let's go there"

After a short deal, Berto takes the lead towards HRF.

Berto asked the ticket seller whose fight would take place.

"It's Sharp whale with Bland Tiger in 30 minutes"

"Hmm ? Sharp Whale going to fight? why didn't i hear about it?"

"An impromptu match to welcome new students. Maybe one of Hector's plans for a promotion."

"A i see. Give me 2 ticket then"

"Okay. 1 gold total"

Berto looked at La'el telling him to pay.

After pays the ticket, La'el and Berto move toward HRF building.

La'el could see a circular Arena with many seats surrounding it. The seats near the arena had a different color to the others, apparently it was the VIP area.

"Berto, how much it take to have a seat near arena ?"

"Depends on who is competing. If the usual match only takes 2 gold."

"I heard before someone called 'Sharp Whale' seems quite famous. So how much it cost right now ?"

"Even Sharp Whale have some fame, Bland Tiger is a mediocre fighter. It only takes between 3-4 gold i think"

"So, how strong Sharp Whale is ?"

"Although he seems just low-tier 9 stars, his Ajian can emit large amounts of water. Plus his machete technique he can even beat people who are in the Mid-tier. That's how he able to gain his fame now."

Ajian is like a birthmark. Everyone is born with their own Ajian.

The Ajian that Sharp Whale have is quite good, when compared to his own which is only a rusty old sword that he couldn't even cut anything with that.

The word "rusty" is not a metaphor but means literally.

He once thought it was like a powerful sword that had yet to awaken.

One time he tried to use the sword to slash the wolf, but it only ended with a cracks on the blade.

La'el's Ajian Its only use was that if he channeled his energy into the blade, it would give off an aura that suppressed the movements of everything around it. So he could easily beat them with his bare hands or external weapons.

Because his Ajian was useless, he had learned how to use energy as efficiently as possible since he was young.

"Lets take a seat first"

"Okay"

That two people sat on the center bench and waited for the match to start quietly.

Besides the two of them had just met a few minutes ago so there wasn't much to talk about, La'el was still trying to calm himself because some strange information kept popping up in his head.

"TV ? Webnovel ? phone ? I thought I'd start jotting down this information in case it might come in handy one day."

La'el, who was in his own thoughts, was awakened by a woman's voice.

"Berto ! Can you at least make your friends to put their luggage first?"

La'el saw there were two women, one with long brown hair and the other with short blonde hair. They seemed to be acquaintances that Berto had.

"I was just passing by and persuade La'el to come around into this place"

"Ah ! So, you're La'el ? I'am Rani, your senior. You can call me sis Rani"

La'el can see that blonde girl talking to him.

"Since when did Bahari have a senior and junior system?"

"Hahahaha ! yes La'el ! that's right !"

Rani's face blackened at La'el's question, she seems angry.

La'el immediately noticed that the girl's temperament was a bit problematic, he immediately put on an awkward smile.

"S-so-sorry sis, Not long ago Berto told me to refute all your words"

"Eh ?! you just sold me like that ?"

"Berto !"

"He is lying ! trust me !"

A smirk appeared on La'el's face when he saw Berto who was being beaten by Rani.

"You !"

The smirk quickly disappeared as Rani pointed at him.

"Y-ya ?"

"Don't get too close to Berto in the future, he is a big liar"

"Of course!"

"Ah ! I forgot to introduce you to her, she is Bela"

The girl with brown hair turned out to be named Bela, La'el immediately acted polite and lend a hand to Bela.

"La'el"

"Bela"

"Hey boy ! are you showing your true colors now after selling me ?"

**

In a large room there was a middle aged man sitting on a chair, a person wearing an instructor's uniform stood in front of him. Instructor immediately opened his mouth and handed over a stack of papers.

"This is the report you asked for sir"

A middle aged man flipped through the papers slowly, his eyebrows rose when he saw a piece of paper from the stack.

"Hmm ? There was a Mid tier among the new students ?"

"Yes sir, according to reports there 2 Mid-Tier, 4 Low-tier 10 stars and 1 Low-tier 9 stars"

"Hahaha I wonder where this academy is going with people like them joining."
