After, they came out of their dorm, and were quite some distance away from other people. Alicia didn't hold back her curiosity any further and asked. "Where will we be going, Luis?"

"South Island," Luis answered simply.

Alicia raised her brow and asked, "The 'thing' you mentioned, is it there?"

Luis nodded and said, "Let's talk about it after we get there."

Alicia understood what Luis wanted to convey, so she asked a different question. "Are we renting a boat?"

Luis shook his head and replied, "No need for that!"

Then he grabbed her waist and hugged her closer, which made Alicia blush. She didn't expect him to suddenly hug her, but she didn't reject him. Though she was curious to know the reason behind Luis' sudden act of intimacy. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But just when she was about to ask him, she heard him whisper.

"Spatial Jump!"

The next second, the surrounding scenery changed. Alicia looked around and found that the two of them were inside a forest, surrounded by trees. She understood that Luis used his teleportation spell to bring them here. But she wasn't familiar with this place. So, she asked, "Where are we?"

Luis looked at Alicia, and responded with a smile, "South Island." On their previous ride back to the Oracle Academy, he had already marked the South Island with his perception. So, he was able to calculate the approximate location of the South Island and teleport there.

Alicia's brain went blank for a second, then she exclaimed, "What?!" Staring at Luis with wide eyes, she asked, "Just how much is the range of your spell?! Wasn't it only 10 meters before?!"

Luis nodded and explained, "Well, the range of the Spatial Jump spell was indeed only 10 meters when I was G-Rank. But with every rank increase, the range of that spell increased by ten times. So now the range is 10 Kilometers. Of course, the mana consumption is just as large."

This revelation amazed Alicia. She felt that the Space element was too cheating. If people don't have any methods to restrict Luis from using his spatial abilities, then who can stop him?

He can come whenever he wants and leave whenever he wants. His enemies can only be helpless if he doesn't want to fight them.

Of course, Alicia thought things too simply because she was unaware that Luis' advantage in front of his future enemies would amount to nothing.

"Freak," Alicia murmured with a sigh.

When he heard his fiancée calling himself a freak, Luis smiled wryly. Her reaction wasn't surprising because this growth was indeed a little too much.

"Well, we can discuss those things later. We should first focus on what we came here for."

At the mention of this, Alicia suddenly remembered something and said, "But Luis, the South Island, also has a barrier like the Main Island and we entered here without permission won't the formation's mechanism alert the academy guards."

Luis smiled and said, "Yep, they would have been alerted and caught us as soon as we stepped here if we didn't have the Student IDs."

Alicia showed a look of realization and said, "No wonder you waited until today! I didn't expect the Student IDs to have this kind of use."

Luis chuckled and didn't explain much. The Student IDs inside the Oracle Academy have many uses. Which Alicia will come to know about, eventually.

Moreover, it wasn't like Luis couldn't have bypassed the mechanism with his talent. It's just that he felt it was unnecessary to put in that effort when he could just wait a few days, like what he did.

"Pocket Space!" Luis used his spell and in the next second, a purple vortex appeared near his hand. He inserted his hand inside the vortex and took out several button-shaped things from there. They were 3 cm in diameter each.

"What is this, Luis?" Alicia asked curiously, wondering if it was one of his inventions.

"It's nothing special. Let's just call them… umm… Button Drones?" Luis said, showing his lack of interest in this thing.

Seeing that he had just come up with that random name, Alicia chuckled and reminded him. "You better change that name later."

Hearing the word 'drone', Alicia had already got the gist of it. As for its specific features, seeing Luis' expression, she also lost interest and didn't ask.

"Umm," Luis nodded perfunctorily, then said, "Lily, use the Button Drones and search for a small hole inside the big ravine at the centre of the island."

{Yes, Master!} Lily's voice sounded from his mana bracelet. Then the next second the button drones started levitating in front of them and flew at fast speed, disappearing from their sight in the blink of an eye.

Alicia's lips twitched, thinking that speed didn't seem like something a normal drone could have. 'Why did he look so dissatisfied with it before?'

His Button Drones can float in the air at the speed of 200 miles per hour without making any sound. They have stealth features and can be controlled over a range of 40 kilometres. Inbuilt speakers, microphone and several other functions.

Plus, by self-destructing it can create an explosion powerful enough to kill an F-rank. But Luis still didn't think highly of his creation. Maybe he would only be satisfied when he could kill the powerhouses of A or S rank with his drones alone.

Turning to Alicia, who was looking around curiously, Luis said, "We just have to wait here until the drones find that place. Then we will use my spell to teleport there. This Island has many powerful monsters, so it's not a good idea to move around carelessly."

Alicia understood this too, but she still nodded at Luis' reminder. Because she knew he said this for their own safety.

Luis checked the nearby area once again, and then the two of them sat on top of a tree branch and waited.

A few minutes later, a drone found the place Luis was looking for and Lily immediately informed him.

{Master, we have found that place.}

Luis stood up on the tree branch energetically, then said with obvious excitement. "Good job! Give me the coordinates!"

As soon as she did, Luis held Alicia closer to him and teleported again.

Seeing the change of surroundings once again. Alicia sighed in amazement.

*Sigh*

"No matter how many times I experience this. I can't help but envy you, Luis. Your Space Element is too convenient."

Luis looked at her and said, "Don't make it sound like you don't get to use this convenience. For long travels, you use transport circles as the mode of transportation. This isn't much different."

Alicia pouted and said, "I know that, but using a previously drawn magic circle fueled with mana stones is a lot different compared to your instant teleportation."

"Once your range increases further, you can go anywhere you want instantly. That is still enviable."

Hearing this, Luis chuckled and said, "Maybe in the future, it will be possible to go anywhere in the world. But for now, even this small travel takes a lot of mana and the exact coordinates for it to work."

Then, shaking his head, he decided to stop talking about that now. "Anyway, now let's focus on what we are here for."

When he said that, both Alicia and Luis shifted their attention to the small hole surrounded by grass and plants looking like a rabbit's burrow.

"Isn't this burrow some animal's hibernating place?" Alicia asked curiously.

"Most people think of it like that," Luis chuckled, then said, "Lily, send a Button Drone inside and project the image to us once you reach a spacious area."

{Yes, Master!} Lily did as she was told while Alicia observed everything curiously.

A few seconds later, Lily projected an image to them and Luis immediately used Spatial Jump again, while holding Alicia.

This time they appeared inside a dark tunnel, which at the next moment was illuminated by the lights from the button drones.

Alicia looked around and exclaimed, "Wow! I didn't expect there to be such a big tunnel inside the burrow."

Tapping on her mana bracelet, she asked, "Lily, how deep was that narrow hole before this tunnel started?"

Lily immediately responded to Alicia's question. {It's 50 meters, Sister Alicia.}

"That deep?!" Alicia raised her brows and sighed, then looked at Luis with a smile and said, "Fortunately, you can bring us here with teleportation. Otherwise, we would have to dig the entire thing. There's no way anyone can get here from that narrow hole."

'No Alicia, you are wrong. Someone crawled all the way here, and that person was you. Maybe If I wasn't here, everything would have happened according to the game story.' Luis thought inwardly as he looked at her smile, and it made him a little sad in his heart.

When the two of them started walking inside the tunnel. In his mind, he couldn't help but think of how Alicia reached this place in the game's plot.
