The Extra's Dominance

Curtis, Alec, Blake, Eve, Adelle, and Aoi looked in front of them.

And there, they saw a Giant Squid... It's dead.

Burns can be seen from its body, and there's a huge hole on top of its head!

The Giant Squid's purple blood soiled its surrounding, and chunks of its arms and tentacles flew everywhere...

Siyokoys who were near the mini-boss, dead or almost dead, were also swept up by Raven's attack just now and got burned too.

Then...

'Sorry it took me quite a while, I'm still not used to dual casting.'

Raven's words echoed in everyone's heads.

"..."

"..."

Curtis, Blake, Alec, Eve, Aoi, and Adelle were speechless.

Dual casting, it's a skill that not anyone can learn, in fact, among the group...

Adelle and Alec are the only ones capable of dual casting!

Though Raven's dual casting took longer than when they're the ones doing it...

Alec is a 7th-tier mage in his past life, while Adelle is a mage-class awakener.

On the other hand, Raven mainly uses weapons and rarely uses magic!

He was even recorded as a non-combatant awakener at the beginning of the school!

"The magic he used..."

It was then, someone spoke and broke the silence.

It was Adelle.

The others looked at Adelle, waiting for her to finish her statement...

"The magic Raven just used is in between of 5th tier and 6th tier..."

"!!"

And what came out of her mouth just shocked the others even further!

They all looked back at Raven...

And they saw him chugging a mana potion while slowly descending.

"He's getting stronger so fast... If we fight again, I'll surely lose."

Alec stated.

"Tsk... What's with that bastard."

"When did he even learn to dual cast?"

Then Curtis and Blake spoke.

"..."

"..."

While Eve and Aoi just remained silent, mostly because they don't have anything to say and they were exhausted.

But for the 3rd time since entering [The Labyrinth of the Nurturer]...

The whole group's determination to get stronger got ignited by Raven again!

...

Btw, Raven learned the concept behind dual casting from his mom, Elaine, who can triple-cast without breaking a sweat.

And with his trait, <Understanding>, he started training to be able to use dual-cast.

It's been almost or so a month since then...

And now Raven is about past halfway through mastering dual casting!

...

On the other hand...

'Why the fuck am I getting stronger faster than I predicted?'

Raven was quite confused too.

He did know he'll get stronger faster while in the tutorial dungeon number one...

'But it's not supposed to be this fast...'

[I agree, there must be something that is boosting your growth even further...]

'Do you have any idea what is it, Sariel?'

[Nope. The Higher Beings wouldn't tell me a thing to.]

Raven then racked his brain to find the cause of his explosive growth...

"..."

...

"Whatever."

But he can't find anything at all, so just gave up thinking about it after a minute.

"It's beneficial for me, that's all I need to know at the moment."

He then mumbled and joined the others afterward.

*****

Meanwhile, Outside the labyrinth...

Inside the Lunar Academy, or to be precise...

Inside one of the rooms in the girl's dormitory that consist of rank 50-100 freshmen students.

The one responsible for Raven's explosive growth is currently writing an article on her laptop!

That's right, the reason behind Raven's fast growth is a person!

And it's a girl!

Tap- Tap-

Click-

Her hands keep pressing key after key...

"Hmmm~"

And she's happily humming, evidence that she's enjoying what she's doing!

And after a while...

"Done!"

The girl exclaimed with a satisfied expression on her face.

"And... Post!"

Click-

Then she published the article she was making earlier on the internet without even hesitating!

She posted it to multiple social platforms, and even just seconds of posting it...

Ting-

Ting-

Ting-

The article is already attracting a lot of attention!

It was like it's a hot topic that most people are waiting to see!

"Uwaahh... I'm so happy."

The girl then mumbled with a smile as she saw her article getting a lot of positive comments and getting shared.

The girl in subject has dark blue eyes, silky long ponytailed platinum hair, and a very beautiful face.

She isn't tall or small, and she has a well-trained body with the right curves in the right places, making her attractive and sexy.

And that girl...

Is Jeanna Avyl!

She's with the students who bullied Raven on the first day of school...

Who later became Raven's admirer during the assessment test!

Also, she's the leader of the very first Raven fan club!

The name of their group is [Black Feathers]!

They didn't openly include Raven's name because they thought he would forcefully disband their group if he knew.

(Raven will actually do that if he knows...)

Anyway, back to the group.

[Black Feathers] have thousands of members already and it keeps on increasing at this very moment!

The group has its own sites, and yes, that site is full of things about Raven!

The article Jeanna posted just now is an example of its content!

The members of the [Black Feathers] aren't all students of the Lunar Academy, they have members outside the academy!

Anyway, why am I telling you all this?

Well, just as I said, Jeanna is the reason for Raven's explosive growth.

She's using the group she created just weeks ago to make Raven's name known as much as possible!

And because of that, Raven is gaining a lot of attention!

And that attention is being used by his trait,<I like the spotlight>!

And the hidden feature of this trait that Raven probably knows by now is, the more positive attention he's getting.

The better growth boost he will receive!

And not to mention, there's no soul in the Lunar Academy who doesn't know anything about Raven!

After all, articles about what he did in the assessment test are still being talked in the internet even after weeks had passed.

"I wonder what Raven is doing right at this moment..."

Jeanna then asked herself.

"He'll come back in 5 days..."

"I hope time skips even for just a day so I can see him sooner."

She then followed in a rather down tone.

"But that can't just happen."

(Jeanna is right...)

...

***

Anyway...

After 6 days of relentlessly attacking the floors of [The Labyrinth of the Nurturer].

Raven and the others...

"We're here..."

Reached the entrance leading to the 10th floor.
