Death Mage with an SS-Rank Talent-Chapter 192

Two weeks later...

Aaron and almost every other first-year student have no idea what is happening out in the world. It was the same for the second-year students as well.

On one side, there are cults that have increased their attacks for unknown reasons over the past few weeks, but the intensity has multiplied significantly in the past two weeks.

The reason, the fall of Last Bastion.

Monsters destroyed the fort. Though there were efforts made to rebuild the fort, it was slow due to the monsters which are on a rampage from that day. The attacks from monsters increased everywhere.

This is something that the alliance can’t keep a secret, no matter what. Just like the alliance, the cults have their own think tanks and diviners who can interpret information, even if it is partial.

They easily found out that there are monster horde attacks everywhere. It was not just the large horde that destroyed the last bastion, but there were many small-scale attacks in many places.

The attacks not only happened on land but also sea. Sea monsters became active and even started assaulting the coastal cities.

Luckily, the attacks were small-scale, most likely trying to probe the cities.

The alliance has put a stop to the sea trade route. Though the losses were not much but many fishermen who depend on the seas to catch fish, crabs and many marine food, were now had to stop their activities as it was dangerous out there.

A few dared to go into the sea after the ban and were never seen again. Once that happened, everyone in those areas stopped fishing in the seas.

With a reduction in trade, a reduction in resources due to the attacks of monsters and cults everywhere, the economy started to go down, which is slowly causing unrest in some areas.

The alliance was able to placate the people using the surplus resources that were stored for emergencies. That was a temporary fix, not a permanent one, but there was nothing that the alliance could do about it, especially with the cults using the chaos that was a veil as a cover to cause riots and increase unrest among the people.

Only by clearing the cults can the alliance be able to bring peace to the world, but that would take a lot of personnel, which they lack at the moment, preoccupied with dealing with the monster attacks.

Thinking that to be the case, they provoked the alliance again and again, never thinking about the consequences that would rain upon them sooner than later, as they had no idea what the alliance was going to do next.

In these two weeks, Aaron was attending classes that he believed were useful, while dedicating the remaining time to level up. With such dedication, a lot of changes occurred in Aaron’s status.

He has reached level 196, very close to level 200, while everyone was struggling to even reach level 100 at this time. Very few have reached level 100 at the time.

Normally, reaching level 100 before the end of the first year can be considered a great achievement, especially because they have classes to attend as the academies are not established to level up blindly.

These institutions are created to spread the knowledge among the awakeners, so that they can improve in a better way. Also, the academies are the best places to meet people who are like them and form teams.

In the outside world, nothing can be earned by being alone. Connections are very important.

With so many levels of improvement, Aaron’s attributes also skyrocketed. Even after dumping so many FSPs into his attributes, he now has almost 50,000 FSPs, just 2,000 short. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Once he gains those two thousand, he can improve his luck by another point.

In any world, luck is very important, especially in a world where death is everywhere.

Coming to the skill section, there were no changes in that. All his skills are already too high in rank, and improving them even with 100x improvement is not an easy method to do so.

He didn’t use the SPs as he was saving them for increasing the Summon Skeleton skill. To increase his grade, he would need to increase at least one skill to Gold Realm and being one of the oldest and most used skills, it was designated as the one that would reach the gold realm rank, and he wanted to do that in a single stroke.

The skills at their current ranks, alongside his improved attributes, are more than enough at this point to face any attacks from his peers, even from seniors who are a few years older.

The chances of a higher ranking one fighting him are abysmal. So, there was no need to invest SPs into skills at this point. Whatever increaments that would appear in the skills can so happen by him using the skills regularly, not by using SPs, atleast for now.

A smile appeared on his face seeing the status. If he continue to grow like this, he would be perfectly able to protect not only him but also his parents from almost many dangers. Only a few would be able to truly hurt him as he can escape from enemies, even if he can’t defeat them.
