The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 57: My journey to the academy (1)



Time went by and it was almost time for me to leave home and go to the academy.

The test day for the entrance to the Royal Academy is right around the corner. I had to leave now to reach the academy in time. Winter City is far away from the Royal Capital where the academy is located. The academy is a few kilometers away from the Royal Capital but it is the closest human settlement and also the only way for the students to enter the academy at this point.

Anyone who wants to enter the academy has to go through the royal capital. the academy was built as such it would help the capital city grow.

The academy would create a few high-tier people who would become the security of the capital directly or indirectly.

After graduating from the academy, these people would still need a job to survive and increase their power. Though not everyone would settle in the capital, a few would which would increase the security of the capital.

There is still the academy which admits a lot of Tier-1 professionals every year. If anything bad happens the capital can ask the academy for help and if the problem is not a big one, they would send these students to clear those through missions.

This security would attract more people to settle in the capital or even do business with the capital as it would be the safest place in the kingdom.

To make that this should happen when the academy was built, the academy location was finalized to a place that can be easily accessed through the capital. The other three directions are dangerous and not advised for common people or even for the new admits.

The seniors and staff are another matter. They can directly use the teleportation hub in the academy or open a personal portal for themselves.

So for me, the only choice was to use the teleportation hub to the capital and then proceed to the academy but that would cost a lot and it would be a waste of resources on unnecessary things. At first, that was my thought of traveling on land to the capital but I scrapped that idea later.

Any travel in such a way is prone to attacks from not only beasts but also bandits. I thought it was a good way to train myself that way and also to gain EXP to increase levels and at the same time loot the belongings of those bandits along the way but that appeared to be not a good idea in the long run.

This was because I learned that there would be dungeons in the academy and the students have to regularly clean up those dungeons and that would award them with points. These points were the currency of the academy.

Everything that was bought or sold in the academy was through those points. Gold is useless in the academy. Unless you have other resources in your pocket to sell here for points, you have to work in the dungeons.

Moreover, in a year, a secret realm was about to open and the restrictions were that Tier-5 and above couldn't enter. So he has to stay at Tier-4 till then or else I would miss out on a great opportunity.

So I decided to use the hub and pushed the date of travel to near the exam date.

In the time I stayed at home, my EXP level didn't change but a lot of things changed. I was able to upgrade my skill levels, though not much but they would be very much useful for me in that dungeon.

There were many skills that would need a push to improve with the meager resources of my family. It was why the academy is important to us. The growth would be much slower if I stayed home instead of going to the academy.

It can already seen from my status that many basic skills that I learned didn't move much in a month. I mean, I dedicated almost all of my time to training. I didn't go out at all.

The routine was the same for me for the past weeks. Wake up every morning, freshen up, and eat breakfast. Train till noon and then eat again. Rest for a while. This is so that my muscles wouldn't go sore and decrease my performance. Some more practice till dark before dinner for the night.

After that return to room and bang Inari at night.

Whenever I found some rest time, I looked for a way to send Inari back but there was no knowledge about it in the family. I even looked for the person who placed that Demon Summoning ritual in the library but no luck on that matter.

So the only way to either increase my skill levels faster and efficiently or send Inari back would only be possible through the academy.

Royal Academy here I come.
