Chapter 8 Entering the Heroes Academy

"You don't believe me captain." Said Bubbles Up.

The captain stop laughing as he saw the rainbow coloured bubbles around Bubbles Up.

"What's with the diffent kind of bubble. I never saw you used this kind of skill before." The captain got confused.

Then Bubbles Up throw her colorful bubbles and they all exploded.

"What a great skill, but it's not enough to kill that beast." Said the captain.

"Why is that?" Bubbles Up asked.

"That beast, is a SSS level beast. It's a lizard that evolve into a crocodile if you see it's feet, it's not of a crocodile but if a lizard. But not only that, the lizard not only evolved but also mutated, so it's should be very strong and faster than usually blink step. It died from the inside consuming it's vital force like poison." Explained the captain.

"Well that is true, but it's also true that I have become SSS class." Said Bubbles Up.

"Enough with the nonsense, where is the boy?" Asks the captain.

"Aye, boss you cook our food first that we prepared for you before I'll tell where the boy is." Anwered Bubbles Up who really don't know how to explain.

"Oh that crabs"

"Yes boss captain"

Hellsparadise cut the rope tied on those crabs then he demanded for the Clippers of them since the crabs can generate them. The crabs then left their cliparts before going back to the lake.

Inside the belly of the lizard, Geo find out that he don't have any core and that he have a Devine skill. He just wonder what will he do with a Devine skill since he don't have a core so he decided to better give it to Dynna when they meet up at the Heroes Academy.

After some time he smelled something delicious so he followed that smell outside of what he thought a cave.

"Woah it smells delicious, I'm too hungry" said Geo as he walk out of what he thought as a cave.

"Is it the boy?!" Bubbles Up was shocked to see Geo coming out of the mouth of the beast.

"You hide him on the carcass? That was unpredictable" Hellsparadise taught Bubbles Up hide Geo in the Carcass of the dead Lizard.

Then Geo sensing someone is alive inside the stomach of the beast which he still taught a cave went back to save him.

The moment Geo comeout again, he was carrying the unconcious Horseman as well.

"Wake up!" Shouted Bubbles Up while slapping Horseman.

Horseman has awaken and got curious what is going on.

"Why did you slap me?" He questioned Bubbles Up.

"That is the prize for leaving me alone. I thought you died that easy." Anwered Bubbles Up.

"Where is my crab? Why I only got cliparts? I want the brain?" Demanded Horseman.

"Idiot!" Said Hellsparadise.

"And I thought I was in the cave, I just wanted a good night sleep but there always some distractions" said Geo.

The three of them laugh at him.

"And then here comes this blacksmith that disturbs my sleep,clanging with his metals and hammering till dawn then again there was an earthquake and rumblings and explosions that I thought miners are in the way trying to trap me under and finally it ended up it was just cooking a delicious crab out of all those chaos" Geo continued and they can't stop laughing.

"I really thought Bubbles Up had hidden you on that Carcass on purpose." And they all laugh again while eating.

"That was good though, it saves me a lot of time to explain" said Bubbles up and they all laugh again.

"Yeah, we spend a lot of time searching for you at the bottom of the lake but we can't find you. We don't have the idea you've been swallowed by that beast the moment you fall into the deeper part of the lake."said Horseman.

"How would you know if I don't even know?" Asks Geo. Then they laugh out loud.

Time has passed and they reach thier destination-The Heroes Academy.

The captain goes on a seperate way because he has to report to Zander who is Ruppert and Geo's father then he will go to the Association of Heroes because he was also summoned to report due to unusual attack of demons that never happened before.

As soon as they arrived, Geo was summoned to the Dean's quarter and many students were envious of this kind of favor.

"So, you are Geo, your mother has high expectations of you" told the Dean.

"Sir, you know my mother?" Asks Geo.

"Ofcourse she is my student, she excels in everything and was the strongest of her batch, Do you want to become my personal student as well?"

"I apolosgize sir, but I don't want to become a hero. I don't even have a core to begin with." Told Geo.

The Dean take a hold of his pulse to check on him and it made him stunned.

"How come? How can it be? This kid has no core. Did Cassandra made a mistake this time?" The Dean taught to himself with so many questions in his mind.

"See, sir. I don't have a core to begin with, how can I become a hero?" Said Geo.

"Well in that case, I can't decide it on my own. Since you are here, you will take the test tomorrow. and let your results decide if you are going home or will stay at the academy" The Dean explained.

Geo just nodded.

"By the way, I heared from your mother that you have a soft body so your brother is calling you Geosoft. She even said that your body is soft as that of a slime which is so tangible so she even tell me to look after you. Judging from what are you today, it doesn't seem that your body is soft. How is that?"

"Sir, I was able to improve my physical body" anwered Geo.

"Very good, I hope you can develope your core as well." Said the Dean.

"Sir can I visit Dynna my cousin before we can't be able to know each other's names and wear masks." Asked Geo.

Of course, that should really be the case, you can also visit your brother. Your brother's room is just next to you as of now. Rooms will be interchange after today. Dynna's room is at the ladies chamber number 308." The Dean told him everything.

When Geo went outside, he sees the two heroes that ushered him.

"Hey Hero Horseman and Hero Bubbles Up, Why are you still here?" Geo asks.

This leads to a commotion, now the students are asking someone.

"Who is that? How can he know of a hero?"

"Oh boy, thanks I found you, Come on I treat you this time. Let's go and eat." Said Horseman pulling Geo away from Bubbles Up.

"You are disregarding me, I told you I have become a SSS class hero" told Bubbles Up which had become the center of attraction all of a sudden.

"I have enough of your boasting" yelled Horseman.

"I am not boasting, I'm telling the truth!" Bubbles Up yelled back.

"Can you stop yelling and yapping it's too noisy can't you see you become the center of attraction here, aren't you afraid as a hero." Said Geo.

"A new comer, lecturing the hero is he crazy' someone said.

"Yesterday, there was someone crazier than him, he demanded a sword from the SSS Hero Supreme Sword Master who happens to be e a new teacher in the academy saying the sword was their national cultural heritage, and you know what? The Supreme Sword Master give him the sword and apologize to that kid who was a new comer." Someone replied.

"Who's kid was that? What is their background?" Somebody asks.

"I heared, he is the son of the SSS class hero" someone answered.

"What name of that hero?" Somebody asks.

"I think I remembered it well, It's Cassandra" anwered Bubbles Up.

"Just shut Up!" Geo said.

As they were in the foodpark Horseman ordered 3 cups of ramen for each of them.

"Boy, what did you talk about with the Dean, I think he is fond of you more than your brother."

Before Geo could answer a girl came on thier table and offer Geo a handshake.

"Hello! I am Jasmine" she said.

"It's pointless to tell me your name for tomorrow we won't know each other again" Geo answered. Then instead of a handshake he snap her hands off.

"How rude", she said, then she used her taming ability to make it appear he is abusing her.

"Oh no, why is your core empty!" She cried.

"No it's not empty,, It's actually V-v-vo-vo" then she collapsed unconciuos.

"Someone fainted, need people of the medical department or helears" someone shouted.

The medical department team assisted her and immediately bring her to the clinic.

The teacher of the medical department was shock since her condition was the same as the two testers that she treated yesterday.

"Who is that boy that did this? I want to see her myself." Ask the teacher of the medical heroes department.

"Hero student of the medical department I want you to invistegate this matter properly." She ordered.

The Teacher of the Heroes Medical Department is a fat woman who always wears an eyeglasses with red lips. Short red hair that she divides it in two. That was her hairstyle. She loved to wear redshoes with high heels as well. (I can't imagine a doctor wearing red high heels shoes)

At night, Geo went to Dynna's room first.

"Geo, why are you here? Ask Dynna.

"I just come to say good luck for tomorrows test and to give you a gift as well." Geo answered smiling at his cousin.

"What kind of gift?" Dynna asks.

"Here take it since I can't used them it's better to give it to you." Geo Replied and then touch Dynna's forehead and passed her the Supreme Devine Skill: Heavenly Shield of Fate.

Geo willingly pass it since there is something in his body that hate it so much. The thing would destroy that skill if he will not force it out. Thankfully the skill was not contracted one. The one that Hates it so much has no shape and even destroyed his core and is a contract skill. Contracted skill is a skill given by the Gods as a blessing to hero of choice and it cannot be given or pass to others nor can be forcibly taken. This skill is more than a curse than of a blessing Geo taught about it since it destroyed his core.

After Geo had finished passing the Supreme Devine Skill to Dynna, she collapse on the floor. Then he brought her to bed and lay her down. Then he went out of the room and close the door. Next, he have to say good luck to his brother Ruperth.

Geo knock on the door of his brother's room.

"Come on in" Ruperth said.

Geo entered his brother's room, his things and weapons were scattered on the room . There is also a large chunk of meteorite stone in the center of the room.

"It a gift from the Dean" he said as Geo was looking at the chunk of meteorites stone.

"Did the Dean gave you something"? Ruperth asks.

"No, nothing" Geo admitted.

"I know mother trust you more than me, sorry for not treating you well as your older brother." Ruperth said.

"Is these the Datu Lapu-lapu sword?" Geo asks as he picked the sword on the table.

"Yeah! It's quite heavy and somehow rusty. It has long lost it's power since it was been keep for too long. Sword feeds on blood to become powerful, do you know that." Ruperth asks.

"I am not a swordsman to know about that" Geo replied.

"I'm not a swordsman as well, but I know about that. Sometimes it is good to read books somehow than just train physical exercises." Ruperth explained.

"I heared you asked the Supreme Sword Master to give this sword back." Geo reminded.

"Yes, He said he got the sword unnoticed and apologize". Ruppert admitted this time.

"It's the Supreme Skill of a swordman ten thousand swords that give them the right to steal anybody's sword. That technique is ridiculously powerful" said Geo.

"Haha indeed" Ruperth agreed.

"Well, I just come to say good luck for tomorrow 's test" Geo said.

"Good luck then to you brother, don't bring shame to the family" warned Ruperth.

"Me? I don't have that confidence to pass the test. I don't even have a core to begin with." Geo told his brother.

"Then I will just repeat my words brother, do not bring shame to the family." Warned Ruperth again.

Geo just thinks something is wrong with his brother. Does he have some other plans keep on secret?

"Tomorrow we might not know each other again brother so just keep praying you might not meet me in the arena or I might accidentally kill you." Ruppert continued to give Geo a warning.

Geo taught to himself "Surely he is not seriously sorry" Then he responded his brother, "I may not know you tomorrow brother, but I know your skill." He then drop the sword on the table.

" I'm leaving now, good luck!" Then Geo close his brothers door and left.
