The cloak hit 8:00, and the alarm rang. Elior woke up after struggling for two whole minutes. He blinked his eyes a couple of times as a transparent notification in the corner of his eyes greeted him.

[Minor Poison Resistant has reached LVL 2.]

Good. The poison has been detoxified. From clearing the dungeon last night, he came to his quarter only before the sunrise. After dealing with the rest of the business, such as destroying the blood-stained clothes and flushing in the toilet, and eating, Elior had less than three hours of sleep—only a little less than he normally sleeps.

But he was feeling unusually tired today. After all, he cleared a dungeon alone when he did not even reach the first-class advancement. That reminded him he still had not checked out what changes the Class—Berserker—brought in, though he knew all about this class from his experience. It's better to check again.

Walking his way to the washroom, he opened the attribute window.

It was as he had expected. There were no changes to the ability, 'Berserk'. It was a unique grade ability and, like most other unique level abilities, it was pretty hard to master. Fortunately, his mastery from the previous timeline would come in handy—after all, he only chose the class for this ability alone.

Coldwater showered on him as he lost in his thoughts.

Other than the class, advancing to the first-order gives a few more privileges, such as the inspection ability, that could help in identifying components and chaos fiends. And he had reached level 24, four times with the stored karma points. He had 8 free attribute points now—after the first class, each level give two free attribute points and it increased once again for the next order.

Elior considered for a while and invested all 8 points to intelligence reaching to 43 and his mana was raised to 535. Physical attributes still could be trained further, and mana was what he mostly needed in the training of the [Abstraction of Void] and the [Berserk] as both needed more mana than any other attributes.

The cold shower finished, and he was hungry again. Wiping his body and putting on clothing, he checked his phone to find if anyone had called him yet. None had called him as he left a message for Shin and Ileana to not bother him.

There were a few messages there, though; mostly from Shin and one from Ileana. He messaged back that he was going out to eat.

Shin replied immediately, [I'm coming.] while there was no reply from his female friend.

Elior went out of his room to find Shin was waiting outside as their room was across from one another. With a brief exchange of greetings, both of them went to the cafeteria. It was Sunday, but the first floor of the cafeteria was as crowded as any other day.

Elior was about to enter when he noticed someone else was entering the cafeteria too. It was a good-looking boy, more than Shin and Elior put together, but the good-looking face was covered with some injuries, though most of them had healed, leaving only a few bruises. Other than that, there were other indications of slight injuries too, though mostly hidden.

"Good morning," greeted the handsome-looking boy, Leroy. "We will meet again."

His face had a smile while he said that and gestured for them to enter first.

Elior entered with Shin who asked, "What happened to your face?"

"Oh, that's a slight injury from training," Leroy answered, rubbing his face a little.

"Are you training all night?" Elior could not help but ask. Clearly, he could guess that the injury was not from training—he had seen this fellow sneaking out of the academy with help from a foreign artifact last night.

"You can say that," Leroy answered clumsily.

"You better be careful then," he sneered at the good-looking boy. "Refrain from training at night, especially alone."

Leroy gazed at him particularly, but Elior neglected the stare and found his friend Ileana at a table. She was with someone else—someone he knew, but had not thought will be seeing here.

"Good morning," he greeted Ileana and the silver-haired senior. "It appears you have bonded well with your idol, Ileana. Mind if I seat?"

Ileana looked at the silver-haired Aanya, who did not oppose, and said, "what are you waiting for then. Sit. We were just talking about you."

"Really?" he said and then moved to gaze at Shin, who came in next. "Shin, will you please bring me my meal?"

Shin grimaced and said, "I'm only doing this because it's you." The wanna-be delinquent moved immediately, fearing the two females would ask for more errands.

"So," Elior said, and focused on the two maidens. He asked Ileana, "Are you badmouthing me on my back?"

"Of course not," the girl gave an innocent smile and continued. "Senior Aanya was just about you for some purpose and I answered truthfully."

"So you are selling your decade-long friend after only two days of introduction with your idol," Elior said, shaking his head as if he was disappointed in her. "I did not expect this from you."

Ileana did not even put his words to ears and said to Aanya, "Don't mind him, Senior Aanya, he's just acting."

"I can see that you two are very close," Aanya said with a pleasant smile.

"Of course, other than me he has no friend." Ileana spilt the beans again.

"Hey, I have friends," Elior protested immediately. "Maybe not many, but there are few."

"Really, tell me about it."

Elior went silent for a second and saw Shin coming back with his food.

"Look, Shin," Elior said, pointing at the wannabe delinquent.

"You only know him for a couple of weeks only, El," Ileana reminded.

"Yet, we are best friends now," Elior said and took the tray of his meal holding an egg sandwich with salads and the bitter green juice. He gave a curt thank you to Shin and returned to Ileana. "See, I told you I have a friend. He even remembers what I usually eat."

"That's just one person," Ileana said, squinting her nose.

"You want more?" Elior eyed her in a joking way. "Do you think, one Shin is not enough?"

"Fine, you win," Ileana in the end gave up. "Now eat your food already."

"I'm so awesome that I don't need more friends," Elior said, giving a victory smile to Ileana, mouthing the sandwich.

"He's not joking there," Ileana added to Aanya, who was watching all this with wide eyes. "He really thinks that he's awesome and does not need more friends."
