Chapter 12 Progress And Unexpected Surprises!

In the C rank dungeon, Lizards Nest. Rio was walking in a dark corridor ignoring all traps easily. It was as if he was just taking a stroll around here. After half an hour of walking, he was already in front of a small room.

Rio walked in without hesitation; this small room had several books in it. It is like a small library that has not been cleaned for a long time. Even the books have become so old that nothing can be deciphered from them.

Without wasting any time Rio walked towards the table in the middle and picked up the book named Black records, he took the book and placed it in the drawer of the table. A mechanism got triggered and a magic circle covered the library. After a few seconds, the magic circle disappeared and a beautiful flask appeared on the table from thin air.

Rio picked up this beautiful flask observed it for a few seconds and threw it on the floor with all his strength. The flask broke and

And its broken pieces are scattered everywhere. After a while, all the pieces turned into white light photons and rushed towards Rio's body. A warm feeling started to envelop Rio.

After all the photons entered Rio's body the warm feeling disappeared snapping him out of his daze.

[Acquired A passive skill, True Immunity!]

"Hmm, good I got it. Let's leave this place now"

Rio immediately left this place and headed back to the dormitories.

True Immunity is a passive skill, it can make you immune to any unusual type of skill used on you, like an appraisal. Although an appraisal is not an attack skill it's very stealthy and can use others' brains to get information about them. But True Immunity can block such skills. Not only it can block appraisal other unusual skills can also be nullified using it. For example, spirit attacks, mental attacks, and curse-type skills all can be blocked by it. Obviously, it isn't useful against physical and magic attacks.

'Its true worth will show when fighting the boss of SSS rank gate actually.'

That monster has a skill called atomic disintegration, it can cause every single atom of your body to disintegrate and will instantly reduce you to nothingness. But True immunity can block this skill.

'Isn't this skill overpowered? Yeah, it is. And Fade gets it with sheer luck. But now that I have taken it, he will have no choice but to buy it from the shop. No free things for you buddy.'

After a few hours, Rio was already in his dorm room, on the way to his room he heard about Fade's duel.

'That guy must be spending his time with Kira now. Well, she will become his greatest support in the future.'

Not to mention when Fade will become a SS rank, he will marry Kira. Thinking about this a sudden thought came to his mind:

'Should I look for a girlfriend too? I mean it's not ban to get in relationships in this academy.'

Due the increase in the percentage of appearing a better potential in the next generation, love marriages are very famous in this world. Everyone wants to marry only the one they love. It strengthens the potential of your children.

Thinking this far Rio shook his head and threw this thought in the back of his mind:

'I will think about it later, there's still a long road left in front of me.'

After Rio came to his room, he directly entered his private training room and prepared for the breakthrough. Yeah, the fight with that Lizard boss caused him to reach the peak of D+ rank and now he can breakthrough and become C rank anytime he wants.

He has been suppressing his breakthrough in order to reach the academy.

'Now the time, let's start.'

He sat cross legged and released his suppression and immediately started to focus on breaking through. This time the breakthrough is of special importance because after reaching rank C you can finally project mana outside your body. Before he was only able to strengthen his body from inside. But after entering Rank C he can even use mana to defend, by covering his body with it.

Even the sword can be covered with mana due to which its damage will increase by many times. It is said that entering Rank C makes you a real warrior.

After a few minutes of concentration Rio finally breakthrough and became a C rank Swordsman:

[The advancement has been completed; you have been promoted to Rank C- successfully!]

[The rank of all the techniques and skills has been increased!]

[Due to your 'Basic Swordsmanship' becoming Rank C you have acquired a new skill, Sword Energy!]

[Due to your high talent in swordsmanship, your skill Sword Energy has been evolved to a high rank and has become, Sword aura!]

[Your 'Elemental Sword Art' has reached Rank C]

[You have acquired new skill, Handling!]

[You have acquired the ability to control your aura freely now!]

After a while the notifications finally stopped and snapped Rio out of his daze. He was extremely shocked by all these notifications.

'I knew it will cause me to become strong, but I didn't expect it to be this fruitful, amazing!'

After calming himself for a while Rio checked his status which he hadn't checked in a while now:
