Hated mate Chapter 30
The week passed quickly. Lucinda went outside the academy ground donned in her usual reddish gym suit. She had left eight hundred Credits to Ivor and used again the Sulfur domain to make sure that she had increased her power as much as possible. She had only one thousand and six hundred Credits and twenty merit points left, she was in need of the rewards of the mission. However, her headache had vastly diminished in intensity which left her pleasantly surprised. 'I should really pay more attention to the faculties of the academy.' Right outside of the entrance, in Arolyac forest, Lady Chen was waiting with three more students. "Why am I not surprised that you are here?" One of the students was Yaoyao and she spoke as soon as she saw Lucinda arriving. "We are the best in our class as well as the poorest. It is quite obvious for us to join this mission." Lucinda answered. During the previous months, Yaoyao had clearly shown her superiority to Justin, gaining the undisputed tit

Nigel asked a question to the captain."Captain, what do you mean by that?"Preston moved some hair away from his forehead before answering."On the first layer, the dimension was an icy field populated by rank 3 Snow bears. On the second one, we were in an underground area against Steeled centipedes. From that, we can imagine that all the other layers will contain a different environment. One thing you might want to know is that they are real magical beasts and not some creations of the inheritance ground."'They actually created real environments and filled them with the magical beasts corresponding to each location. I don't even want to think at the amount of preparation required to set up something like that.'Lucinda thought, marveled by the Royal inheritance.Nigel spoke again."So, we just need to clear the floor to pass it?"Preston nodded."That's the method that we used and it worked just fine.""Number of specimens?""One hundred on the first layer and two hundred in the se

"Thanks, Lucinda, you really saved us out there."Lucinda nodded, sitting on the ground.The effort of vanquishing the fog in the entirety of the fourth floor had tired her greatly, she needed to rest."As for the things that you saw when we were inside the illusion..."Lucinda raised one hand and interrupted him."Don't worry, everyone has his/her traumatic experiences."The other three nodded and lowered their heads, they were quite ashamed that they had been seen when they faced their most painful memories.Another pile of goods, bigger than the previous one, appeared in the middle of the layer.Errol laid his back on the terrain and spoke in a calm voice."I wonder why we are given this much time for each floor."Nigel answered."It's probably in order to let the participants safely approach every test. If it wasn't for Lucinda, clearing this floor might have taken a while.""So, what do we do now?"Yaoyao asked.She was a bit annoyed that Lucinda had saved her and she kept her he

Seven packs of monkey-type magical beasts to defeat in six weeks of time.They had all the time needed to carefully plan their approach, they had just to be careful not to cause too much ruckus.In the end, they chose a simple tactic: Lucinda would be the bait and expose each leader and the other three students had to kill it.Then, they would regroup and apply a different combat formation to better exploit the weaknesses of each kind of beasts.Earth monkeys and Spiked monkeys relied on their bodies so it was better to fight them as a group in a solid and stable formation, using strong attacks to kill each specimen in one strike.Fire monkeys and Toxic monkeys were adept in spells with a large area of effect, the students chose to fight them separately, dividing the creatures' attention into four different areas.Wind monkeys and Dwarf monkeys were fast and nimble, Lucinda and Errol had to stay in the center of their packs to attract their attention while Yaoyao and Nigel did a pince

The Cloud eagle slowly flapped its wings.It gradually distanced from the ground, staring at the three students at a few meters in the distance.Nigel's body was firmly stuck on the claws of its right foot, he was still alive but blood flowed incessantly from his injuries.There was only one outcome in his situation: death.The youths understood that and hastily turned to continue their escape toward the passage to the sixth layer.However, while she moved her gaze away from Nigel, Sara remembered something that made her curse loudly."Fuck!"Lucinda turned but not toward the passage, she faced the rank 4 beast, looking at it with determined eyes.She jumped ahead, black rings appeared under her feet and reddish black smoke began to envelop her.'Shadow steps! Bloodline form!'She activated her spell and ran at full speed toward the beast.Errol and Yaoyao noticed her behavior but continued to run away, no matter how frustrated they were about Nigel's situation, they wouldn't risk the

Lucinda moved toward an empty area of the encampment."So, what is your bright idea?"Preston followed him with Yaoyao and Errol at her sides.Lucinda looked around and nodded in satisfaction."Captain, there should be around fifty soldiers in your troop, am I right?"Preston answered with a confused expression."Well, yes. Fifty-three to be precise."Lucinda continued."And I believe that the items from the inheritance ground will stay with you until the envoy from the Royal family arrives, right?""That is true."Yaoyao and Errol were already shaking their heads since they understood Sara's intentions.Lucinda made a gesture and the "Breath" blessing inside Nigel's space-ring materialized on the ground.Its appearance attracted the attention of the entire camp since the density of the "Breath" instantly increased by one-fold.Preston's mouth was hanging on his jaw, he still hadn't inspected the goods that the students retrieved and he was quite shocked to see such a precious mineral

'Oh right, I only gave him enough money for two months of wine.'Lucinda looked at the pitiful state in which Ivor was.He had returned to his previous smelly and ragged figure and tens of empty jars were left all around the floor.Lucinda picked a thousand Credits and casually threw them to him."Go to the alchemy division and buy some wine, money shouldn't be a problem from now on."Just the amount that she had seized from the rewards amounted to ten thousand Credits, Ivor's expenses could be covered for two years with those.Seeing that he was about to complain more, Lucinda revealed him something to placate his mood."You might want to know that I've decided to accumulate "Breath" again in my sea of consciousness."Lucinda knew that even if Ivor didn't pressure her, he had a lot of expectations regarding her improvements in the Elemental forging method.Ivor's eyes lit up and regained some focus."Are you sure? Is the internal pressure gone?"Lucinda shook her head."Not completel

Sara walked toward the inventory of the Sect.'Win-win she says… she just wants to use me to get the Royal inheritance, I don't know if I'll have any value after that.'He was thinking about his conversation with the royals.'It might be fine till I'm discovered but what will happen at that point? I don't believe that they will simply clear my name, nor that I will allow them to do so. My future clash with Alpha Calhoun's pack is set in stone.''What's most likely to happen is that Jake will be blamed for everything will trade my life to pacify the situation.He was a criminal, there was no other way to see it.The Royal family was in charge of the county but they had to maintain a peaceful relationship with their subjects.Jake sighed after realizing that his only option was the usual one.'I need power.'She reached the inventory and showed her token to the guards that let him pass almost immediately."What can I do for you this time?"Professor Lynn spoke to her with a trace of in
