261 Monster Tide



"I finally did it" Evan shouted out loud after seeing he used mana reinforcement and his skills at the same time.

But just as he shouted, he once again lost control over his mana, and mana reinforcement ended there.

When Evan noticed this he wasn't discouraged. Even though it was just for a few seconds he was successful.

"Now that I can control the mana of both of the cores, it won't take long before I will be able to use both of them in the battle" Evan muttered and looked at his shadow undeads who were standing at the side of the training centre like cheerleaders.

'I should spar with them since it is the best way to improve my control' Evan thought and was about to spar with his shadow undeads when an announcement rang out all over the academy.

''All Students Gather in Academy's Hall In Thirty Minutes''

Evan was taken aback when he heard the announcement and wondered why they were being summoned.

He looked at himself and saw he was drenched in sweat. He started training his mana reinforcement and skills ten days ago.

During this time he rarely left the training centre and spent most of his time here.

'I should take a bath before going there' Evan thought and called back his shadow undeads into his shadow storage.

After calling them back he left the training centre and made his way towards his room. When he was done bathing it was almost time to gather in the academy's hall.

He quickly wore his clothes and rushed out of his room. While going he saw other students who were also going towards the academy's hall, and just like him they were also confused about why they were being called.

Soon he arrived in the academy's hall which was already filled with students. All the students were sitting on the chairs and at the end of the hall was a stage like platform where Evan noticed four people were standing.

He recognised Edward and Cole among them who were the teachers of the academy, but he didn't recognise the other two.

He looked around the hall and after finding an empty chair he sat there.

All the students were confused and were talking to each other about what was happening.

"All right stop talking" After thirty minutes passed by Cole stepped forward and said to students who stopped talking.

Even though he spoke normally, his voice was heard by everyone because he used the classic technic of novels.

Amplifying his voice using mana!

"I know you all want to know why we called you here, so I won't waste your time and will directly get to the point," Cole said and looked at all the students, "Naphliam city is going to face a monster tide soon"

Evan and the other students were stunned when they heard Cole.

Even though it is not impossible, the chances of a monster tide are very rare.

'According to what I know, the previous monster tide occurred fifteen years ago, and it was near Ravenhurst city' Evan thought while remembering the last monster tide.

In that monster tide tens of thousands of monsters rushed towards Ravenhurst city.

During this best tide, many hunters died while stopping the monsters. This monster tide was one of the most dangerous tides because it was led by two S rank monsters.

Other than those two S rank monsters, there were also many A+ and A rank monsters.

During this tide, two S rank hunters died in order to stop one of the S rank monsters who almost successfully entered the city.

"Normally other cities would have sent their support to stop the monster tide, but because of the situation of unusual dungeon outbreaks that are happening, most of the cities don't have enough hunters to send as support"

"But for the past month, the situation of Astarte city improved quite a bit, and there were no dungeon outbreaks during this time. So some of the teachers from our academy and other guilds of the city will be going to Naphliam city to provide support" Cole said and stopped for a moment to let Evan and others understand what he just said.

'There was no dungeon outbreak since the last month' Evan thought and remembered how he found a black potion in Carlos's storage ring that can be used to create a dungeon outbreak.

'I think dungeon outbreaks stopped because I killed Carlos who was using that potion to create dungeon outbreaks' Evan thought and looked back at Cole.

"From what we know this monster tide is less dangerous than the last one that occurred in Ravenhurst city, if any of you also wants to go there meet us outside of the academy tomorrow morning"

"During the tide, you will be assigned to a position according to your rank so you don't have to worry about facing monsters who will be at higher rank than you"

"You can get cores and merit points after killing the monsters. You can exchange merit points for artefacts or other useful things"

"But do remember even though I said this monster tide is less dangerous than the last one, this doesn't mean you will be completely safe. There will be thousands of monsters in the monster tide and no one can guarantee your life. If you decide to go there be sure to make enough preparations" Cole said and looked at the students who were in deep thought.

"Alright, that's all I have to say. You all can go back and think about whether you want to go there or not. Even though it is not necessary I suggest you guys to go there because it will be a good experience for all of you and will help you all become a better hunter in the future" Cole said his finals words and after taking one last glance at students he left with Edward and other two people who were standing with him.
