Back to the Academy and catalog

Many tried to stop the sphere from advancing but were killed by another volley of arrows of darkness towards them, killing them on the spot.

Entoloma came close to Nicola and was soon stored in his space ring. Thereafter Nicola no longer bothered to remain in the cave. He came back through the deserted tunnel running and using earth manipulation to make the tunnel collapse behind himself all the way. Once again he was running for his life in a short space of two days.

Nicola managed to get out of the cave and ran through the forest so as not to be chased by the fungi. His mission was over and he received more profits than he had previously imagined, so he was satisfied to return to the Six Rings Academy.

[You wiped out thousands of fungus-like monsters, you gained tons of experience]

[You have gained a level]

[You won a new title: Fungus genocide]

The return took about five days because he was still very cautious when walking at the center of the forest, taking longer than usual. However, getting there Nicola promptly handed over the ram's horn and went straight to his room.

After a long shower he slept for a whole day to recover his mind from all the dangers he took. At dawn he was in the laboratory, wearing a gray robe, his hair tied up in a bun and the five tails moving on his back, each performing a different function or holding some laboratory utensil.

His biggest acquisition was the Entoloma solaceum, he was in a flower bed, next to his magic partner. There seemed to be a kind of resonance between them, when put together they would shine brighter and absorb the light around them faster. Nicola guessed that it would not take more than a year for both of them to wake up and gain sentience since them seem to be very old already.

In fact Nicola was cataloging all the profits he made on this mission, hundreds of animal cores and corpses to be dismantled and their parts separated and turned into materials. The most precious material he got was the Celestial Ram fur, he used his new profession of elementary craftsman that was unlocked and transformed the raw material into a very resistant and beautiful wool thread, ready to be used in other projects.

It was after the noon when he left the room and went towards Tiane's room, she had reached level 20 before him, but now he had passed her friend. Each level after level 20 required a lot of energy and experience to advance. Nicola was lucky to kill so many monsters at once just after reaching that level, allowing him to advance again.
