Ange lived in a huge house inside the Nacesai Academy. Usually, the students live in dorms with others, but due to her special status, she owned a whole house.
When Ange saw Yale at the door of her house, she left at top speed and ran to hug Yale. She missed Yale even more than Yale missed her.
In those years Ange grew a lot.
She already was fifteen, looked like a young woman and was very beautiful. However, her personality hadn’t changed even a bit.
Ange was already at the 9-star rank, and she estimated that she would breakthrough into Rank 1 in a month, becoming a Rank 1 Novice Magus.
Given her talent, if she didn’t only focus on healing spells, she could have reached the Rank 1 long ago, but even with perfect talent healing spells were difficult to practice and if one wanted to reach the Rank 1 relying only on them was very difficult.
Yale also felt that it was good that Ange was slow to reach the Rank 1, otherwise, in a few years, Yale would look older than her. Yale knew that with the Origin Path he wouldn’t reach the Rank 1 very quickly.
On the other hand, Yale wouldn’t like to remain looking like a kid, so he had no problem in having a slow-paced Path as long as he reached Rank 1 before turning sixteen.
Yale saw that Ange was looking to Wyba who was held in his arms and then proceeded to present her to his sister. Yale was nervous as he feared that his sister would have a problem with Wyba.
“Big sis, she is Wyba. I adopted her as my little sister when I was in the Beast Trial.”
Ange gave Wyba a kind smile, dissipating all the fear in Yale’s heart.
“If you are the little sister of my little brother, you are also my little sister. Come let me hug you.”
Ange also seemed happy to have Wyba as a little sister; Yale gave Wyba to his sister and then she hugged her. Furthermore, Wyba also seemed happy to be hugged by Ange.
Yale smiled as he saw that scene, he was happy that Ange liked Wyba and that Wyba liked Ange as well.
Yale chose to stay in the room next to his sister’s bedroom, Ange was only using one room, so she was very happy to lend a room to her little brother.
Yale left Wyba with Ange as he closed himself up in his room and started practicing the Origin Path Training Method.
Yale also wanted to spend more time with his sister, but he knew that he couldn’t lose more time and needed to train.
After training for an hour, Yale felt more familiarized with the Origin Qi in his body and decided to try to use Spark.
Even if Yale understood the spell thanks to the Last Wish System, he still needed to chant the spell before activating the magic.
Yale succeeded at his first try, after chanting the spell sparks of lightning appeared in his right hand. However, with that power, at most the spell could numb the target a little and Yale was unable to shot the sparks so he could only use it with direct contact.
It was clear that the skill was still too immature to use in a real battle, but Yale knew that it would improve if he continued practicing.
In the following three days Yale almost didn’t meet with Ange and Wyba at all, but thanks to his crazy training he already had four Origin Points. Furthermore, Spark and Tri-sword reached the second level.
Fortunately, Yale’s room was big enough to practice with the sword. Originally, he planned to practice Tri-sword with his master, but Swordmad told him that they would resume their training the same day the classes start and that he was free until then.
Swordmad thought of letting Yale have a good time with his family and relax a little as his future schedule would be too tight.
However, Swordmad underestimated Yale’s craziness for training.
Ange didn’t mind about Yale being crazy about training. Instead, she felt happy because Yale would surely get stronger if he kept training that diligently.
Yale stopped training only when Ange told him that his classes were about to start.
Yale chose to leave Wyba inside the house, it was possible to bring a young beast to the classes, but Yale didn’t want to attract attention on the very first day.
Even if the Academy would ensure that there wouldn’t be any killing among the students, the same could not be said about the beasts that belonged to the students.
Yale considered Wyba as his little sister, but to the Nacesai Academy, she was just a beast that belonged to Yale.
As Yale didn’t know the characters of his classmates, he didn’t dare to show Wyba to them for fear that they would harm her in any way.

The first class was at eight o’clock in the morning, and it was the Fist Battle Class, all the Warrior classes were in the morning while the Magus ones were after lunch, which made possible to study both of them.
Yale went to the training grounds for the beginners which were separated into five areas one for each type of class.
Furthermore, there were also five groups of students in the beginner grade, four groups which had less than a year in the Academy and the mixed group of those who stayed more than one year without reaching the 4-star realm.
Of course, the members of the last group were the unsuccessful remains from all the other promotions of students, and they were looked down upon by the students in the intermediate and advanced grades.
In the morning, the five groups rotated to do all the classes, but there wasn’t any interaction between the groups. It would have been too easy for the ones who have trained for longer in the academy to abuse the newcomers, so they were completely separated to avoid conflict.
Yale arrived at the training grounds just in time to start the Fist Battle Class.
At that time, he saw that everyone else seemed to know each other already, Yale was the only one who wasn’t at the Nacesai Academy Recruitment Test Day and thus the only unknown face.
However, everyone stared at him as if they knew exactly who Yale was. They heard from the academy about the student who skipped the tests only because of the influence of his sister and got a special entry to the academy, and they didn’t feel good about that.
Originally, Yale wanted to be low-key and avoid attracting attention, but in this situation that was impossible.
Yale could only wryly smile as there was nothing he could do, he entered the academy relying on his sister. He could understand that the others, which have taken the tests and gave it all their effort to enter the academy, had some animosity towards him.
However, Yale didn’t go to the Nacesai Academy to make friends or to live a good life in the academy, Yale’s objectives were to become stronger and live near those who he considered his family.
If he could make some friends in the Nacesai Academy, then that was good, but he didn’t mind if he didn’t make any friends.
As Yale looked at his classmates he realized that even if he was slightly taller than a normal ten years old kid, those classmates were even taller than him and far more muscular, they all looked like mainstream warriors.
Yale was confident in his strength, but he was mainly skilled with the sword, even if he had the strength he didn’t have too much confidence when it came to battle with fists, so seeing that everyone was bigger than him, made him a bit nervous.
