The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 87: Dorian's time at the academy (2)



Dorian pushed the humiliation to the back of his mind. He decided that he would first improve himself and one day he would enact his revenge on these noble brats.

At this point, he was not strong enough to compete with those nobles, so he decided to improve his rank first. He would have a lot of time for his revenge later. He only saw the noble brat as a small hurdle and a one-time thing. With the system, there won't be too many hurdles for him. This was his thought.

It wasn't until he went to the Magic Association that he learned that the hurdles had only started to appear.

His Tier-1 promotion mission wasn't easy. He had to kill a Tier-2 monster in order to be promoted to Tier-1. This was like an insane mission that anyone could get at that point. He was peak Tier-0 and it would be considered difficult if the monster that he had to kill was at mid Tier-1 or something.

The monster's rank that he had to hunt directly skipped Tier-1 and went directly to Tier-2.

It was an impossible task, but with the help of the system, he was able to complete the task but all the items that he brought and the points that he accumulated until then were gone.

The killing of the Tier-2 monster didn't yield any points either. When he asked the system, the reply was simple.

The task was issued by the World's Will and the task would be under its purview. Altering it would cause unforeseeable consequences. The points can be considered similar to EXP.

The EXP is actually the energy that was released after the being's death. A part of the energy converts into EXP for the killer, while the rest returns to the world.

The system turns a small part of that energy into points that can be used to buy items from the shop. If it interferes with the mission, Dorian has to face something that would make him wish that he had never been born in the first place.

The only good thing that came from this was that his mission was graded S. For completing the mission, he entered the Tier-1 rank and also gained a buff of 10x.

Though he had no access to such knowledge before, after successfully awakening, he got access to the materials that were originally out of reach for him.

He knew that the promotion missions would be graded. Depending on the grades, there would be a buff in attributes corresponding to the profession. He read that Grade S is the highest and it would give a 10x bonus.

He understood why this grade is the highest and the recorded ones are very few. It was almost impossible and no one would be able to do that. The ones that got this grade were all geniuses of the generation. It would not be an easy feat, that can be replicated repeatedly.

Though he has no idea how they were able to do that, he doesn't need to be concerned about them. They may be geniuses but he was sure as time passed, he would be the most powerful one in the entire world.

Those geniuses don't have a system that has a lot of resources that can help them. They have to fight for resources in order to improve, while has no need to fight others for the resources.

He can just fight monsters and earn points. These points would be turned into rare and unique resources that usually are not available in the world.

Though he has no need to fight other humans for resources, he decides to get them and not let them go. He wanted to become powerful but being only powerful is not enough for him. He wanted to build an army, an army that could sweep the world and then he could rule the world.

Army needs resources, but the system doesn't have that many resources. Even if it has, they can be brought through the points and these points can only be obtained if he kills the monsters. There was no other way. If he wants to clear out the system shop, it would take a lifetime to do so.

He has to spend all his time hunting, which is a waste of his time and energy.

So it was best to find a supply of resources in the world and those resources can be used to build his army. This would be the best way to improve his strength indirectly.

For the army, he had already some ideas.

He decided to attend the Royal Academy, where the students are mostly noble-born or have rich backgrounds. There would be a few commoners, and he thought that they would be his first followers.

He was sure that the nobles there would cause trouble for the commoners and he could become their leader. The prerequisite was that he had to become the top ranker of the academy. When the commoner-born children see that the top ranker is defending them, they would flock to him.

He would become their natural leader.

Though the army would be smaller, at this point he has no way to maintain more people under him. He would reach that stage one day and the followers from the academy would be his generals in his army.

They would lead his army to defeat all his enemies. This was his ambition and to make sure that his ambition would come true, he would do anything.

---

Dorian thought that he would be the number one but he was defeated. It was not just anyone that defeated him. It was the same noble brat that humiliated him at the entrance of the Winter City.

Though his rank was not even the second, and was in the later positions, he still felt humiliated. Those top rankers are all the noble children. If he can't reach the first rank, there is no way that the commoner children will turn to him.

His plan of world domination fell flat and he started blaming the noble who humiliated him months ago.
