—The radio blared with ongoing news reports, but I paid little heed to its updates.

??????????!—Switching off the radio, I shrugged on my jacket and placed my cat mask firmly in the dimensional bracelet.

I quickly left the hostel building and made my way to the Academy entrance.

"?????? ?????????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ???????????????? ?? ???????????????????? ?????????? ???? ???????????? ?????????????????? ??????????, ?????? ???????? ???????? ???????????????? ?????????????????? ?????????? ?????????????????????? ?????????????? ???????? ?????? ?????????????????????? ?????????????? ????????, ?????? ???????????????????????? ???????????? ????????, ?????? ?????? ?????????????????????? ???????????????????? ????????."

These were a few lines from my novel which outlined what was going to happen before the Genova incident...And what led to the Genova incident—club activities.

Yea,...club activities led to the Genova incident.

Genova is an urban center where the main cast goes as a part of the traveling club, unaware of what awaited them.

'Genova is an urban centre'—the thought crossed my mind again as I frowned.

Once again, my thoughts wandered to the peculiar incident of ???????????? Mansion. Being an urban hub, one would expect a surplus of security personnel, union forces, and heroes to maintain order. So how was it possible for a Minister-ranked vampire and a mere C+ ranked werewolf to unleash chaos within the confines of the esteemed ???????????? Mansion?

Considering the significance of the mansion itself.., One would assume that security measures within its walls would be remarkable.

But this begs the question of how did such an incident happen?

I never bothered to write down the reasons of why CU never came on time in the story so I don't know.

"Guess I'll have to figure it out",I murmured to myself, determined to get to the bottom of this.

Anyway,.

In Arcanum Blades Academy, the club activities were overseen by various instructors.

And even though, usually, an instructor would oversee, it was not entirely uncommon for second-year students to take charge and supervise these clubs, although they usually do not interfere or engage much with first-year students.

For instance, the travelling club was supposed to be looked over by Ghalib Baig, the formidable class president of the second-years. With a remarkable ranking of C+, Ghalib reigned as the strongest student within his cohort.

In the story of the novel, due to some unforeseen events, as fate would have it, Ghalib Baig was not able to join the trip to Genova.

Had he joined, the Genova incident wouldn't have been devastating for Class A1.

Thus in the novel, I made sure that Ghalib is absent during the Genova arc.

Basically, he was too strong for the story's progression otherwise.

He is also one of the few guys I do not want to fight against.

In the story, the travelling club, consisting of approximately 80 students, embarked on their expedition to Genova, under the watchful supervision of a nameless instructor.

That's when chaos ensued, and the Genova incident unfolded with tragic consequences.

Twenty students lost their lives, while two others mysteriously vanished before any intervention from the CU could rectify the situation and prevent a larger-scale massacre.

And all of that because of a maniac vampire-werewolf couple who celebrated the blood of humans.

"Am I done now?" I inquired, glancing at the attendant who had just stamped a piece of paper, serving as a receipt for my transaction.

With my package in hand, collected from the post office, I veered off my path slightly, deciding to take a brief detour to Dyrne Alley.

I was planning to purchase some personal items, which I will need shortly.

"Tsk, If only I knew some high-level spells...", frustration laced my words as I muttered to myself.

If I knew some high-level spells, I wouldn't need to prepare so much.

But, the reality remained stark – I lacked a mana core, rendering me incapable of casting even a basic spell.

In this world, the color of one's mana core decided the elemental spells they could use.

Conjuring fireballs, summoning flames with hands, and similar displays were categorized as "Basic spells."

There existed a hierarchy comprising basic spells, intermediate spells, high-level spells, and divine spells – each escalating in complexity and potency.

In this world, the type of mana core one possesses determines their abilities.

Take, for example, an individual with a blue mana core. This person can conjure a wide range of spells, excluding those of an elemental nature.

On the other hand, someone with a deep blue mana core can harness the power of any spell but specifically excels in water elemental spells.

Likewise, only those gifted with a yellow mana core can conjure fire elemental spells, as exemplified by Freya.

However, Aeravat possessed a rare white mana core, granting him unparalleled control over all four elements.

When combined with his propensity for harmony, which allows him to balance and harmonize all elements, it becomes clear just how strong he truly is. Not to mention his relics either.

In the academy, neither Aeravat nor any of the main cast used their relics, as they were prohibited during tests and matches.

But in the Genova incident, the use of relics will be inevitable, if my memory serves me right.

Anyway...

The thing is, tomorrow the people who joined clubs will have serious club activities.

And me being a student who had not joined any clubs...I was relatively free for the upcoming day.

But, this newfound freedom was offset by the fact that I was assigned three assignments to complete.

"Oh, right... I nearly forgot", I muttered to myself.

Without wasting any time, I dialed Edward Wilson's number and initiated the call. The suspenseful moment passed as the call connected with a satisfying click.

"Hello?" came Edward's voice from the other end.

"Yeah, are the smoke grenades ready?" I inquired.

"They are. Should I send them over?" Edward responded.

"No, come to the North Krenada train station"...currently it was dawn so..."tomorrow. I'll be there to pick them up at 4 Pm", I informed Edward decisively before ending the call.

Now,... it's time to embark on a little shopping spree.

Third Person POV( point of view):

With a spirited tone, Instructor Liya declared, "Hope on everyone! Our first destination will be the Genova City Plaza! Once we reach ????????????"— Her words carried a sense of excitement as she boarded the bus without glancing back.

In a lively procession, Aeravat, Emily, Aurora, and Takahashi followed suit, joining their fellow students from the travel club on the bus.

Each individual held their reasons for embarking on this journey.

Beyond the allure of suburban landscapes, Genova boasted a wealth of ancient monuments, captivating museums, and enigmatic Magic scroll libraries.

While some were genuinely drawn to these historical treasures, the allure of mere novelty was enough to entice others along for the ride.

"I'll sit here", Takahashi stated with a venomous glare directed at Aeravat.

"You will sit here? Why can't you go and take another seat?"

"I like this seat", Takahashi replied with a glare.

Aeravat couldn't help but shake his head in disbelief at Takahashi's consistent display of childish behavior.

It remained a mystery as to why Takahashi persistently sought conflict with him.

Sometimes when he looked at Takahashi, terribly attractive visions of Takahashi caught in fire, with at least 4 spears protruding from his back, would come into his mind.

But Aeravat could not stoop as low as Takahashi, so he simply shook his head and left the seat

Central Union(CU) sub-division office, District 1— Krenada city headquaters.

"Sir,I have a bad news"

"There is no good or bad news. There is just news. You tell me the news and I will decide if it's good or bad"

"Quintel highway was hit by an attack. We've got around 30 casualties, and it seems like we've got a pair of Vampire Kings leading the charge. We can also confirm that a sizable number of unidentified vampire kin have been spotted in the vicinity", the female officer informed with a somber tone.

Anthony sighed. "That indeed is bad news", Anthony let out with a nervous tone.

"Two Kings ranked vampires huh...", Anthony remarked, shooting a glance at Charlotte, "Call the Arcanum Blades Academy, we need someone who could handle this"

After a short pause, he added, "Oh, and what about Sir Reed?"

"He's been on a special mission to pacify the infamous Jihu Island", Charlotte disclosed, a hint of disappointment in her voice. "Currently, there are no S-ranked or above heroes available."

Hearing Charlotte's update, Anthony couldn't contain his exasperation, smacking his forehead in frustration. "Gah! We need a miracle", he muttered under his breath

"Alright then, make that call to Arcanum Blades Academy immediately. We need reinforcements, at least two A-ranked heroes", Anthony commanded, urgency lacing his voice. "And get in touch with the Hunter Association—", before he could finish Charlotte interrupted.

Her tone filled with apprehension, "Sir, the Hunter Association is currently

..it's currently under attack."

Anthony's eyes widened in shock.

"What?!!"—He jolted upright from his seat, his mind racing with the implications of such an unexpected development.

"Our main force is already deployed elsewhere, sir. We're left vulnerable. What's our plan?" Charlotte asked, her voice tinged with worry.

Anthony grimaced, deep in thought.

"Who's behind these attacks?" he inquired, his voice laced with concern.

"Another vampire, perhaps?"

"Unknown, sir. Our sources believe it's a man, but his identity remains yet to be uncovered" Charlotte reported, her words dripping with uncertainty.
