Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality



He had gotten a full suite, which would usually only be reserved for teachers or highly important individuals staying in the academy for prolonged periods.

Looking down at his hands, Silas let out a wry sigh and brushed his hair back.

The moment he did, his hair changed in color, turning into a bright blonde.

Once he was done changing his hair color, it looked like every piece of hair on his head was made out of gold.

"This should do." Silas thought with satisfaction.

After all, it would be quite counter-intuitive if he caused everyone in the academy to run away from him screaming. The kingdom's propaganda had made him seem like a monster, so in their eyes, it was as if a monster from the fairy tales had chosen to come to life.

'That would be quite awkward, wouldn't it...' Silas thought with a sigh.

After a few more moments, he left his room and approached Alex's. He knew that Nymira would most likely be there, so he didn't find a need to see her first.

However, on the off chance that she was not there, he would go and see her anyway. It wasn't like her assigned dormitory was far anyway. At most, it would take him a few seconds to reach the front of her doorstep undetected.

Actually, he was pretty certain that she or her roommates would take longer to open the door than it would take him to reach their door.

The moment Silas stepped out of his room, his figure disappeared, leaving behind nothing but a gust of wind that blew through the corridors for a moment.

Silas quickly checked out the entire building from the outside with his mystic eyes and located two individuals whose mana signatures and auras he had gotten used to.

In the next moment, he disappeared like he wasn't there in the first place, causing many students around him to look around with confusion as they could have sworn that an individual was standing there a few seconds ago. 

When Silas appeared within the room, he couldn't help but raise a brow.

When he came into the room, he expected to see the arguing. After all, all he knew was that they were in the same room. He didn't bother to check anything else.

However, when he entered, they were sitting in silence as they both thought deeply about something he would not understand.

It didn't take long for them to realize he was there, but with their abilities to sense someone immediately.

Of course, Nymira was the better sensor out of the two, but Silas had honed the boy's senses to the point that most people with toki couldn't compete with his senses.

"You too good?" Silas asked, but they didn't answer.

Seeing their unwillingness to say anything, Silas sighed and dropped the subject before bringing up the subject of schedules.

Before he could talk about schedules, he was asked him about his room by Nymira. When he answered honestly, they both received a long tantrum on how it wasn't fair that she had to be stuck with a bunch of kids rather than have her own room.

Alex and Silas listened for a while before she eventually stopped, allowing Silas to smoothly change the subject.

"So, what's your schedule looking like?"

"Let me see." Nymira said with a slight sneer, seeing through what Silas was trying to do instantly; however, instead of getting angry, Nymira only sighed and went along with it.

Taking out a crystal from her pouch, she closed her eyes and looked into it. It was a talisman that showed her entire schedule in it.

When she looked at her schedule, she couldn't help but feel her brow twitch slightly.

"It's all missions... I'm on missions 6 days a week. GOD DAMN-"

"Oh look, I'm having magic lessons for 6 hours a day, 5 times a week. That's pretty good right?" Alex said with slight excitement.

"Yeah, I have 8 hours of lessons—everything from alchemy, runemanship, smithing, and craftsmanship," Silas said with an upbeat tone, but when he looked to the side and saw Nymira seething with rage, he stopped gloating and moved on.

They talked for the rest of the day, and it went well into the night. 

Nymira seemed to calm down quickly after having received several blows that day. Nymira's roommates felt a tinge of worry for her since she hadn't come back well into the night, yet, when they remembered what kind of person Nymira was, they quickly understood that if she was in danger, there was nothing any of them could do to help her out.

They all returned to their dorms quite late. Alex and Silas cultivated for the rest of the night, while Nymira simply slept. Unlike the other two, she couldn't switch out sleeping for cultivation. Maybe if she had used the same technique as Gigi, that would have been the case, but for now, that was only something she could dream of having.

The next day came quickly.

Nymira talked to her roommates and finally got to talk to Gigi for the first time. The short-haired girl was quite cold toward her, but that was to be expected. The moment Nymira saw her, she understood that to be the case. Well, the correct term would be smelled, a term Nymira didn't like using it since it made her seem like a dog.

After that, she quickly went to the toki section of the academy; she was assigned to a mission far away and simply responded to it with a nod before completing her mission. The person in charge was about to give her a team; however, when they saw who it was and remembered what the headmaster said about her, they simply shivered and let her leave without a team.

After all, she wouldn't need it.

On the other hand, Alex was learning from the old man in the young boy's body. It was simple training, but Alex could tell that while Silas' training was technically faster at making him stronger, the young boy before him did not intend to make him stronger. He intended to sharpen him like a sword.

He wanted to work on his foundations and clean up all the mistakes he would have made by getting so strong in such a short amount of time.

In a way, it was almost the opposite of Silas' training. 

Finally, Silas left his room and went toward one of the classes he saw on the schedule.

He was a little excited. The class that would take place in the alchemy classes was about herbs. It was something he knew nothing about, but in a way, that was exciting in itself.

When he entered the alchemy classroom, he could not help but look around with a raised brow.

"Is this the wrong classroom?" Silas muttered under his breath in a questioning tone. Looking at his talisman, he saw the room letter and number. Quickly leaving the room, he saw that it was the same as the one on the schedule.

When looking inside, there were hundreds of students already in the hall. He was about 30 minutes early, yet half the hall was already full.

With a sigh, Silas sat down on a seat and placed a notebook and pen on the desk before him.

His eyes glistened as he thought about what he would learn; yet, before his excitement could reach a certain peak, it was interrupted by a melodic voice trickling into his ears like warm oil.

Silas' eyes narrowed as he looked to the side with a scrutinizing gaze.

And when he did, several memories flashed before his eyes... Memories that he had almost forgotten about...

Memories that still made his heart thump with both gratitude and fear.

"Silas Skylark, right?" The voice asked. As Silas looked up at the person, he could not help but look at her pink lips for a second more than everything else.

The person before him had ivy-green hair and emerald-green eyes. At the same time, she had such a lustrous aura around her that it almost put Silas into a daze the moment he saw her.

However, his eyes didn't waver as they looked up again toward the pink tulip on her head. When he finally saw it, he looked back at his notebook and let out a small sigh.

"So you've come to collect your debt?" Silas asked with a wry chuckle.

"Collect? You remembered?" The girl asked in a gentle tone.

"I'm surprised someone like you remembered me." Silas snickered.

"How could I not remember you? The boy who killed 3 topaz cores all on his own despite being in the garnet core. That's a memory i would never forget... 

After all, it is the thing that made me fall for you."
