Chapter 60: Graduation Ceremony
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56“Good afternoon to all of you.” The Grandmaster of the academy started his speech. “I would like to thank you all for coming on this memorable day. As you know, today is when you will officially graduate from the academy and become full time Hunters. I must say that even though the numbers had skyrocketed by more than 40% than the previous years’ candidates. However, that did not stop from…” The Grandmaster’s voice trailed off as Matthew was not really paying attention anymore.
Matthew covered his mouth and yawned. It has barely been five minutes and he was already sleepy even though he was just fine a moment ago. His eyes wandered around the vast hall where all the students were gathered to celebrate the graduation of their comrades. Rose was sitting on the girls’ side of the hall, so she was nowhere near Matthew.
Matthew stretched his legs and cracked his knuckles to get rid of the sleepines

About an hour later, Matthew was walking towards the front gate with a backpack on his back. Matthew and Rose had agreed to meet up here before heading back to the mansion together, but it seemed that she was not here yet.“Typical girls. Always takes their time.” Matthew muttered.Matthew put down his pack and rested it by the wall. Then he also rested his back on the wall while waiting for Rose.If this was back in his home world, he would be checking out his phone for chats or videos or memes but that was impossible here. A thing he learned here was that the technology in this world is about the same as his, but also vastly different.The functions were the same but how they operate was different. For example, the microphone converts vibrations into electricity by using certain electronic and mechanical components. In this world however, the microphone itself directly converts sound in

“A delivery quest?” Cecilia asked to confirm what Matthew had said.Matthew and Rose had just arrived from the academy and the group was now inside the living room of Cecilia’s mansion.“Yup, we gotta deliver this box to an old man somewhere in the desert of San Coro. The old man gave a map too.” Matthew lifted his hand that was holding the map.“I thought you said you wanted to lay low for a while.” Yuki said.“Well, yeah, but everyone’s talking about their quests back at the academy. And since we already have a quest right, I thought we might as well.” Matthew said. Matthew hid the fact that he couldn’t hold himself back anymore especially after all that Isaac said.“And you just let him, Rose?” Yuki glanced at Rose.Rose shrugged her shoulders.“There&r
BLAIR Chapter 63: To The Desert!
A few days later.Feathered feet stepped on the squishy sand at a quick pace. The raptors squawked every once in a while as it ran across the mountains of sand.Matthew and Rose were riding on a raptor while Yuki and Cecilia were on another with Matthew and Yuki as the drivers. Their luggage was placed behind them on the raptors. They were all wearing full cover clothing to protect their skin from direct sunlight and the scorching heat.Matthew was wearing a long sleeved undershirt under his usual red jacket along with a scarf that covered his neck. Rose was just in her usual magic cloak that was already covering her fully, with a few redesign to be suited in the desert including a hood. Cecilia wore a grey dress suited for travelling in the desert and a white hooded cloak covering her head and shoulders. Yuki was wearing her usual hunting gear with a brown hooded cloak.“Never have I thought i

“Slow it down Rose!” Yuki shouted again as she started firing arrows at the cloud of sand. Her arrows that seemed normal were imbued with quite a strong spell on it.Rose was also casting multiple low tier spells. Fireballs and slashes of wind were coming out of the magic circles at her hands.The tamsarah was moving in a zigzag pattern to dodge the attacks. Despite its large size, it was evading quite well.For a second, its head was revealed above the cloud of sand. It roared loudly with a gaping maw, showing its two huge tusks on its bottom jaw.Seeing that they weren’t really slowing it down, Rose quickly thought of another way. “Yuki, I have an idea!”“What?”“Don’t stop shooting! I’m going to cast a high tier spell!” Before she even finished talking, Rose was already preparing the spell.
BLAIR Chapter 65: First Scorpion Contact
Black smoke floated up into the air, from the remnants of the tamsarah. Its corpse was a horrific scene of dried blood and burnt tissue. The sand around it was a pool of molten sand which later cooled down into glass.Yuki and Cecilia were speechless. Even Rose herself was shocked. She had not thought that the effect of the spell was this devastating.“Whoa…” A voice from behind the tamsarah. The girls looked in that direction to find that Matthew was walking towards them while holding his left arm.“Matt, are you okay?” Rose immediately jogged towards him.“Yeah, I’m okay but, that guy looks a bit too hot.” He laughed at his own joke.Rose scoffed. “What’s wrong with your left arm?”“Oh, it’s just a bit aching. Maybe the bone hasn’t fully healed yet. Don’t worry, I&rsq
BLAIR Chapter 66: Safe Journey(?)
Dawn had come upon the Hunters. Yuki who was the last one to stay on guard watched as the scorpions started to scurry back into their nest.Yuki walked over to the big tent and entered it. Rose and Cecilia were still sleeping. Rose was facing to the side in a proper way while Cecilia was all over the place.It was always like this. Yuki couldn’t help but laugh. “Rise and shine people, it’s time!” Yuki said while she clapped.Rose slowly got up and rubbed her eyes while Cecilia moaned and stretched her arms wide. Seeing this made Yuki think who was the Noble.“Get up, we’re moving out soon.” Yuki said lastly before she went out.She went to the other tent to wake Matthew up as well, to her surprise Matthew was already out of the tent.“Oh, you’re already up?”“Yeah, couldn&r
BLAIR Chapter 67: Joint Party
Matthew swung his sword around like crazy while killing off a few of the scorpions while Rose was firing blasts of wind and pushed away the scorpions. The scorpions were not focused on them so it was pretty easy to pick them off.Not long after, they finally arrived at where the people were but to Matthew’s surprise one of them was very familiar to him. “Isaac?” He said in a surprised tone.The boy that heard his name got called out turned around in surprise as well. “Matthew?”“Save the chit-chat, we gotta find a way out of this!” A girl from Isaac’s group said.“IS there a way out of THIS?!” A boy from Isaac’s group said. He then had to block an incoming scorpion soldier’s punch.The scorpion soldiers were built like tanks. Their armour was much thicker and tougher than the worker scorpions. Their pincers w

Spiders webs filled the ceilings and corners. Isaac entered the room along with Mira. Mira was holding a small ball of fire in her left hand, lighting the room up.It had a bed on the right, a large wardrobe beside it, a drawer on the other side and a chair by the large window. The glass on the windows are either shattered or scratched. The mattress was dusted with sand and was even torn up.The floor was also littered with sand. Isaac and Mira slowly walked around the room and examined it. The wool carpet was barely visible under it.“Why are we checking every single room of this castle?” Mira asked.“You never know what you’ll find.” Isaac said.“There’s hundreds of rooms in this place. It’s gonna take hours until we’re done.”“Hahaha relax. It’s not like anyone’s gonna come here

At the edge of the pit, it was them. A total of nine of the Scarlett family members.From the right, a woman with long red hair and black and white dress was casting a healing spell on Bilgrae. A male elf in full black armour with a star shaped bang of three red points and two white points and his black hair was split in the middle. A demon with dark violet hair and a pair of horns at the side of her head and wore a jet black skin tight suit which exposed certain parts, Crymillia. In the middle, it was a man with short bright red hair wearing a black and gold robe. Then, a man with black hair in a red and black suit. Another demon with about the same features as Crymillia except that his hair was short and he wore a black cloak over his suit. Then there was a man with spiky red hair in a red robe with a high collar, Crone, the one that Matthew and his friends fought at the Great Sandcastle. Finally, there was the black feathered avian human, Skystorm.Seeing Skystorm in good health, M
BLAIR Chapter 317: The Family pt.1
Confronting Bilgrae now was what he expected to see from a Dragon Emperor.Matthew was now at maximum output of his astra and all of it was condensed in his body. Bright red scales covered his entire body and he grew slightly in size. His muscles became more toned and also increased in size. A pair of horns of a darker tone of red grew out of his forehead that curved to the back of his head. Both of his eyes were glowing golden as his hair was.“Let’s finish this!” Matthew did not delay any further. He couldn’t maintain this form for long so he must finish the fight quickly.Matthew dashed toward Bilgrae who was ready for Matthew. Their fists clashed again and this time, not only was Bilgrae pushed back, he felt pain in his knuckles. Matthew was much stronger than before and far faster too. Utilising his speed, Matthew went for another punch to Bilgrae’s gut.“Oof!” Bilgrae got the air knocked out of him with the first hit.Matthew followed up with a barrage of punches. Bilgrae truly
BLAIR Chapter 316: Test of Strength
After being blown away by Skystorm’s wind, Matthew regained his footing and was met with the big lizardman, Bilgrae Scarlett. Bilgrae had a smirk on his face. Matthew stood up and faced Bilgrae, but his eyes were not on him. Matthew’s eyes fell on Falynx in the far distance.“Are you still concerned about that monster?” Bilgrae asked with his deep voice.Matthew looked at Bilgrae now. “It’s hard to know which one is the monster here.”“Heh, you’re right. All of us are monsters deep inside. It just takes one misstep to turn a person into one. You’ve been there too.”“No I haven’t.”“Maybe not to you. But the whole world saw you as one. Now that monster suddenly turned into an emperor and they suddenly glorified you, while some still hate you of course.”“Hmph.” Matthew huffed.“You’re angry with me, I understand. I purposely did not kill that beast. Out of compassion.”“Don’t lie. You Scarletts don’t know what that means.”Bilgrae wasn’t smiling anymore. “You don’t know how merciful fa
BLAIR Chapter 315: Vampiric Origin
Akame and Skystorm were separated from Matthew and Bilgrae. Akame stood up after being blown away by the powerful gust of wind created by Skystorm. Their eyes met. Both of their irises were bright red and gazed deeply.“I will be your foe, Red Cardinal.” Skystorm said.“What relic will you take? What will you use it for?” Akame asked.“Straight to the questions huh… That’s not any of your business. Why would you care what we take anyway if you’ll die?”“To evaluate whether it’s worth fighting for or not.”“Hmm, a smart choice. If you don't want to fight, then I shant confront you. Sadly, it seems that Lord Dragunov disagrees with you. If he is in the way, then we must remove him. I don’t think that leaves you an option now.”Backing out from this would mean that Matthew will be fighting two people. If they weren’t among the Scarlett Army’s strongest, it probably wouldn’t be hard for him to deal with alone. Both of their foes were really strong and Akame had no expectation of defeating
BLAIR Chapter 314: The Sun God's Temple
After their encounter with Falynx, they reached an agreement to conduct an investigation as they intended. Falynx had flown back to the surface on its own. Matthew and Akame headed to the temple and arrived at the front door.For some reason, even though they were underground, it was as clear as day down here. It was not dark and not too bright either, like a cloudy day.There were stairs that led to the door and the walls in the area were already partially destroyed. Some of the stairs were also gone. The giant door was made of stone and seemed to be intact with little cracks around the hinges.Matthew pushed one of the doors open. It was surprisingly heavy so Matthew had to lean into it to move it. Akame went inside first and inspected the place. There was a stage and a podium carved out of stone at the end of the great hall. A mural was carved out of the wall behind the stage depicting a supposed god holding the sun in his hands.Matthew left the door open and joined Akame to look
BLAIR Chapter 313: The Giant Winged Snake
In the middle of the desert, there were two figures running across the sands. Clouds of sand were left behind in their quick steps. The cloak provided by the minister was really working. No sand was sticking onto them.“We’re getting close.” Matthew informed Akame.Almost two hours have passed since they left the city. Many monsters came their way but they were easily dealt with. It caused a little delay but not enough to affect their momentum. Falynx’s presence was still about 10 kilometres away.“Be ready for battle.” Akame said.“Remember though, don’t kill it.” Matthew reminded her.A few minutes later, a gigantic figure could be seen flying in the sky. The creature had the body of a snake, the head of a crocodile and six pairs of batwings. Its yellow eyes with black vertical slits looked down at the incoming people below.Falynx bowed its head and began descending. Matthew and Akame saw this as an engagement in battle. Matthew called out the Dragoknight to his arms and increased
BLAIR Chapter 312: Mission Briefing
The sun was already high up in the sky in the Capital City of Kubalt. The weather was hot and dry as usual in San Coro. The street around this particular area was not that busy since it was right in front of the Palace of Al-Jauhara. One would occasionally see knights patrolling the area. Akame was waiting under the intense heat of the sun. She had covered herself in a large black cloth to protect herself from the heat. The guards out here only wore light armour compared to the ones inside, probably because their armour would be too hot to wear outside. Not too long after, she finally saw the one she was waiting for. Matthew was jogging toward her. He wore his long sleeved red hooded jacket and an orange shirt under it and a pair of black pants. He also had his usual travelling backpack with him. “Phew, sorry, did you wait long?” “Not too long. Did you not use a teleportation scroll?” Akame asked. “I did, but the closest one was to Yanbue City. Neither Platinum nor Rose were famil
BLAIR Chapter 311: No Rest
“What brings you here, Akame?” Matthew asked.Just a few moments ago, Akame had arrived in front of Platinum’s cave. Someone like who was a Coloured Hunter, passing through the Blackwood Forest and up the cold mountain was not a problem. Or not.Akame was hugging herself to keep warm but it was not helping at all. “Achoo! C-can we talk somewhere warmer?”“Oh, come on in.” Matthew invited her inside.Akame went in and they both made their way to the living room. Matthew didn't think that it was alright to bring her to the others directly. The living room had a fire to keep them warm, so here was enough.“Ah~” Akame warmed herself up by the fire and put her hands out.“So, what are you doing here without equipment to survive on a mountain? Certainly you didn’t come to interview us?” Matthew asked.“Queen Cleopatra sent me. We will investigate the ruin she mentioned together.” Akame said with the same emotionless voice as usual.“Cleopatra? Well, I was gonna head there in a few days anyw
BLAIR Chapter 310: Future Family
Matthew and Rose arrived at the foot of the mountain just by the Blackwood Forest where they dropped off of the carriage while Guinevere headed back to her palace. It was already very late in the afternoon when they got to the forest. Matthew carried Rose's luggage in hands while he also wore his backpack."I can carry my own stuff." Rose said."No, I will carry them for you. Anyway, are you sure you'll be fine?""My magic resistance is quite high. I also know how to disperse mana if it does accumulate inside me. How long exactly is it going to take to get up there again?" Rose looked up at the ledge near the mountain peak where Platinum's abode was."Well, usually only a few hours if you're moving at my usual speed. If we're walking though, a few days at least." Matthew said."But we're not walking, right?" Rose asked."Nope." As Matthew replied, a shadow flew past over them.A jade green dragon circled them as she descended to the ground nearby. Upon landing, the dragon folded its w
