Exploring a Different Cave

It was not right to spy on others, but Arthur couldn't help it. The scene he witnessed was something beyond his limits of enduring.

Arthur did not know who that girl was, as Frostpeak had many students. He couldn't know everyone. But she had one thing in common with all the others. She was hot.

The girl had long blue hair and soft skin that most girls would envy. Her body was perfect.

Arthur hid behind a bush and pondered what his next moves would be. If he showed up out of nowhere to talk to her, she would be embarrassed and think he was spying on her. But there was one way around it.

The lake she was bathing in was considerably big. It had a waterfall attached to it, making everything prettier. Arthur had the brilliant idea of bath himself as well. Arthur took out his clothes, showing his thin but well-toned body. He entered the lake and felt the refreshing water touching his body.

It took some time for the girl to notice Arthur. Once she did, she focused on him. For her, it looked like Arthur had not seen her yet. He was bathing and not looking at a hot girl like herself. The only explanation was that Arthur had not seen her, and after deducting that, the girl sighed in relief.

But the truth? Arthur had tremendous willpower and was only playing like a fool. Meanwhile, the girl was so dazed by what happened that she did not realize the fact Arthur was a man.

She almost screamed once she noticed that. The only man that could be inside the academy was the one from the rumors.

"I can finally meet him, aah," she thought.

Arthur looked at a distance and saw a girl swimming in his direction. She was smiling, and he could not understand the reason behind it. Everything was strange. There was also the fact that the girl did not get embarrassed and was swimming towards him, naked.

"Helloooo!" she yelled.

"I'm Lilia, a big admirer of yours."

"Admirer of what? Of how good-looking I am?" Arthur said.

"That too."

Lilia got near him after swimming for some time. Both of them had no clothes on, creating a strange atmosphere.

"Are you Arthur? Everyone talks about you, yet this is the first time I have seen you," Lilia said.

"Yes, I am, and this is also the first time I see you. I would never forget a gorgeous woman like you."

Lilia's cheeks turned red, and she could barely resist Arthur.

"I spent most of my time in the woods. That is why you never saw me."

"Really? But you still need to attend class, right?"

"I do, but I'm from the second year," Lilia said.

That explained a lot. Lilia was a second-year student and went to a distinct part of the academy to study. That was the reason Arthur never saw her.

But she was doing what, spending most of her time in the woods? Arthur wished to know.

"Second year? You are strong!" Arthur said.

"I wouldn't say that, but yes, I know things,"

"Do you want me to show you?" Lilia said.

"Why not?"

Arthur expected a magic trick or spell, but got something better. Lilia's hand searched for something underwater...

They had a 'nice' time together, with a lot of corporal action.

The reason for going into the woods was to train. Arthur's meeting with Lilia was something he had not predicted.

Arthur surely had not predicted to have an intimate moment with Lilia, someone he had just met. The charming aura of his system was stronger than he thought.

He walked deeper and deeper into the woods as he looked for a pleasant spot to start his training.

The best place was a place where no one would disturb him. It took him a while to get to a place like that, but he found.

Arthur found some chopped trees he could use as dummies. These chopped trees could break his sword, but he was not worried. The academy gave him as many basic swords as he wanted.

Wisa did not train him yet. Arthur did not know how to enter into a sword stance. He had only seen people fight using swords in the movies he watched back in his world. But he swung his sword.

Arthur could not train properly without knowing the basics, but he still could adapt to the rapid growth in strength. Every single point he used to upgrade his attributes changed a lot. He was improving quickly.

And he also wanted to improve his survival skills. Arthur already knew that most mages did not know how to survive in the wilderness. They were like spoiled kids. Now that he needed to leave the academy, it was best if he learned these things. After all, Arthur did not want to die in this magical world.

With a few stones, blocks of wood, and fuel, Arthur built an improvised campfire. But there was a problem. He did not know how to start a fire using friction, like the shows he used to watch.

It was not as easy as the shows made it look. Arthur tried for a long time before accomplishing anything.

"Now is the time that I stay here for hours trying to start a fire. I need to learn how to cast a fireball..."
