My Space-Time System

Chapter 116 - Good-bye



"2 days? That's shorter than I expected. I will be ready by then." Brian replied and after making sure that Castiel was okay with the plan, they headed for the canteen.

In the evening that same day, the school delivered 70 normal beast cores to his room.

​​

"Finally!" Blake looked at the beast cores on the floor with beaming eyes as he picked up one and began caressing it.

[…] The system was speechless. It didn't know how to react to a situation like this.

After he had run out of beast cores he had gotten from the survival exercise, Blake had been using the beast cores supplied by the school as the rank 1 and also the rewards from the field assessment but still, that didn't last long. That was why he was eagerly hoping the exam was a field exam.

His rate of energy absorption was insane, causing what might look like a lot of beast cores in the eyes of others to be nothing in his eyes.

(AN: sorry that I failed to mention the resources given by the school. I was a complete rookie when I started the novel, thus I failed to talk more about it.

So it's simple they give beast cores and materials based on the student's specializations.)

Right now Blake was like a drug addict that hadn't taken the hard drug for a while and had begun experiencing withdrawal syndromes.

"Compared to others, the rate at which I use beast cores is close to double, if not double, but the problem is that they still tend to slightly catch up. Although not fully but it isn't meant to be so." Blake complained when he realized that even 70 beast cores wouldn't last.

[It's simple you are cultivating for 3 elements while they are cultivating for 2. Because your elements combined to be one, it doesn't mean that the difficulty in cultivating will automatically become like that of those with 2 elements.

Remember the illustration of a forgemaster merging two containers? The capacity of 3 elements remains the same, but the advantage is that you also have mana worth that of 3 elements.] The system cleared his doubts.

Even if Blake had only 2 elements he wouldn't even have been in the hero level by now.

Apart from his increased energy absorption rate gotten from the space element, the greater the number of elements one has the higher his energy absorption rate.

It is a way the mother-stream makes things fair. To not make the greater amount of energy need to advance to become a total disadvantage for them, it increases their speed and to not make them to overpowered, it made it only slightly greater than of those with two elements.

He began making use of the beast cores that night and after absorbing all through the night and into the morning, he used 9 beast cores.

The next day, after running his exercises and taking a bath, Blake went for breakfast.

From his way to the canteen the entire area was quite scanty because the students had returned to their various homes early that morning. Even the canteen was usually packed was nearly empty when he arrived.

"Even if I was to leave, I wouldn't miss breakfast. Well, it's their loss." Blake shrugged his shoulder as he enjoyed his food.

After he was done eating and was about to leave the canteen, he met Luciano, Brian, Castiel, and Tessie.

"We've been looking all over for you." Tessie let out a tired sigh.

"We told her that we should look for you in the canteen first, but she said that there was a very high probability that you would be jogging." The 3 of them couldn't help but glare at her with an 'I told you so' look on their faces, causing her face to turn red.

"So, what's up?" Blake asked, saving Tessie from the awkward moment.

"Luciano and I are about to leave, so we wanted to say goodbye before we leave...' Tessie replied.

"So soon?" Blake said with a sad look on his face.

They were the only things close to family in infinite realm and it was quite sad that they were about to separate.

"Don't worry, it is only for 3 weeks and we would be back together." Tessie consoled him and took the perfect opportunity to hug her crush.

"Yup, it won't be long..." Luciano said as he gave him a brotherly hug.

"Any hugs? No? No one? Okay..." Brian felt dejected as he covered his face to escape the awkward situation.

The trio escorted Tessie and Luciano to the school's warp array where they said their last goodbyes before warping away.

When they were finally gone, the school felt even more scanty and boring to them. Not having anything to say to each other, they all went to their separate ways to begin their various preparations for their plan.

'What is the use in knowing people, only to feel sad when they are gone?' Blake sadly thought as he walked to the exchange point.

[There is a simple solution, stop getting to know people and cut the ones you already know.] The system chuckled.

"It's my fault, I knew you had nothing reasonable to say but I listened." Blake rolled his eyes.

Immediately he arrived at the exchange point, Blake went straight for one of the translucent orbs that contained the list of items.

Out of the 123k points, he had generated this trimester, Blake still had a little bit over 90k points to spend. As for the other 30k points, Blake had needed a lot of materials for his practicing and training.

(AN: Remember there are 2 types of points. They start at the same value, but one can be used to purchase things at the exchange point, while the other doesn't get deducted from and will be used to determine the student's score.)

"Now for the armor section." Blake used the filter function to filter out non-armor products, But unlike before he wasn't that shocked because of the prices.
