The Mysterious Black Magician Chapter 52

After the first arrow, he followed up by another one then another and so on until his quiver was emptied. Yet, not even once that his arrows landed on the bullseye.
Yman finally gave up hitting the wooden cardboard when the last arrow landed farther off from the bullseye.
He used his arm to wipe the sweat on his forehead. He already expected such result. Not far from him, some trainees were snorting.
"Puffft, what that idiot trying to make a fool of himself?" A rich looking guy wearing a training suit like the others asked the other trainee beside him.
His deity beside him replied.
"I heard that guy is a mana-less person." A rich looking girl said.
"A no mana person? Then why is that guy allowed to enroll in this academy?" Asked the rich-looking man.
"I heard he has a weird talent that enables him to use magic even though he has no mana." Said the second girl with them.
"What? A talent that enables him to cast magic without mana? What bullshit is that? Uhm... wait, do you mean mana channeling?" Said the rich-looking guy.
Said the deity beside him.
"It is a crap ability though!" Said another man with 2 earrings on both ears.
"Right?!" Agreed with the girl with purple long hair.
"I told you he is crap. In any case, don't get bothered by him. That guy is a waste!" Said the rich looking girl.
"I'm sure he came into the academy to brag himself as a full-fledged magician." The rich-looking guy added.
"Hahaha. What a joke person." Said the girl with purple long hair.
"It's better not to waste our time talking about him. He was so gross. Look how unhealthy he looks! He looks like someone who had no money to buy decent food." A rich looking girl said.
"Yeah, hahaha!" Laughed the guy with 2 earrings on both ears.
"Let's go, sweetie!" Said the man with them.
Yman briefly glanced at his back and saw the leaving figures of some trainee, two boys, and 2 girls together with their deities.
He wondered if he did something bad to them. Although they didn't mention a name, he knew they were talking about him. Their voices were slightly loud.
Regardless, who are they? Yman didn't even know them. Looks like his being infamous reached a different height that even some random group of people would take notice of him.
Well, they were already gone, so Yman decided to leave the firing platform too and went back to where Bob is, who was busy punching the punching dummies. Beside him was his deity named Mac. Mac was imitating what Bob is doing and also threw punches on one of the punching dummies beside his owner.

Bang, bang, bang!
The consecutive one-two combination of left and right punches that shook the training dummies. When Bob noticed him, he stopped and asked: "You're done with your training, bro?"
"Yeah," Yman nodded.
Bob asked him: "How is it?"
"Ahaha, not quite good. I needed more training but I guessed I would do it next time..." Yman replied while scratching his face then pointed out a direction towards them using his head.
Bob glanced at where he pointed. They saw the other trainees together with the instructors. Those trainees were the chosen Elites. They also noticed Keremi waving his hand at the two.
"It's Keremi," Bob muttered.
Yman sighed but soon he frowned and wondered why the Elites came together with the instructors.
They also saw the beautiful girl Almina Amulet and the blonde. Both of them were wearing their fitted black training suits.
The other trainees started whispering how cute, how pretty, or how handsome they are. Looks like those Elites had become academy idols for some reason.
There was even a group of trainees quarreling about who was more pretty, Almina, the blonde, or the Encan girl.
The other male trainee on the training ground suddenly liven-up seeing those two goddesses coming. Not only them, but there was also another beauty. There were the beautiful Encan lady and a cute loli, even Kesha was of top-notched beauty also. So seeing these groups of people really liven the atmosphere of the training grounds.
Yman was not aware, while he was staring at the coming people, Almina's eyes darted to his direction with a rosy-colored face.
She remembered her message to him yesterday. Now she was shy to stare in his eyes. As of the moment, she could not focus on her mind. She wondered if she made an excuse that the message he received was a wrong sent. Yet deep inside something in her wanted to protest that it was not.
Almina's mind was in a mess. What if Yman asked her about the message? What will be her reply? For some reason, she was not ready and she was shy.
Her face was becoming redder every second.
"Best friend, are you okay?" Now, even Kesha who was beside her noticed her redness.
"Ha?! A-A-Ah y-yes! Of c-course!" Almina replied in difficulty and was shaking her hands in front of her and Kesha. Kesha frowned. It was clear that her best friend wasn't okay. And it looks like something was bugging her.

Nevertheless, Yman was unaware of it, and he already forgot about the message. His mind was focused on what he would do with the Magic Cryst that he looted from the Noble rat. He could sell it or use it.
"Formation!" Shouted by Mr. Goki. Whenever the HI Stone De Guzman was not here, Instructor Goki would take his place.
All the trainees immediately ran to their respective position per usual and lined in rows. Not the sun-rays formation but the regular rows and columns formation.
Like usual, Yman was at the back of Bob and Keremi was behind him.
"Before we proceed in our training, there is an announcement coming from the Elites. So all of you listen up!" After instructor Goki said this, he beckoned on Almina Amulet and the other members of Elites.
Almina and the others walked to the front.
"Hey, why are you still here? Your group went to the front though." Yman asked Keremi when he noticed that only him didn't go to the front.
"Ahaha, there's no need for me to go there, my prince," Keremi replied.
Yman wondered what's up with these people, will they go to perform a dance or sing in front?
Needless to say, this Keremi still calls him my prince, my prince... Which was very inappropriate for him.
He already tried to put a stop on it but this guy still kept on calling him like this. What a weird dude, he thought.
After Almina and the others went in front, they immediately announced their purpose.
"What? A party?!" Bob exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, that's what the Elder told us in the meeting yesterday." Keremi approved.
"Hmm... A party of trainees to explore a wider hunting grounds?" Yman also muttered.
"Yes, my prince," Keremi nodded.
"And what is this Resource War mentioned by the Elites?" Yman asked.
"I don't really get it. The elder only said that it is one of the competition mechanism where trainees from different academies fight in a team battle. And at the end of the battle, each team will be ranked accordingly depending on whoever had the highest accumulated resources." Keremi explained what he understood.
|Hmm... what a vague explanation.| Yman thought.
The other trainees seemed to be excited after hearing that they could get a chance to join a party with Elites.
"Whooo, I wanted to join Miss Almina's party!" A guy trainee shouted.
"Please Miss Blonde, my love invites me to your party!" Some un-shameful guy with thick-skinned shouted.
"Miss Rui-Rui chose me, I offer my life to become your servant!" Another shameful bastard shouted and offered his life to the beautiful Encan girl.
"Loli is life!"
"Must protect!"
"Loli is life!"
"Must protect!"
"Loli is life!"
"Must protect..." Some chanted the words repeatedly.
Yman wondered if loli was an endangered species. But when he noticed Bob screaming 'Must proteeeect!', |For real?!| He shouted in his mind.
"Ahahaha..." Keremi just laughed. Looks like the loli girl had many fans.
Some girls also scream the Elite boy's name.
Yman finally understood why Keremi had chosen not to go in front together with the Elites.
Before the trainees lost their control, the Instructor Goki immediately announces that the recruitment and building of parties would be held tomorrow morning in an open forum event for the trainees.
When the heat finally calmed down. The training immediately resumed. Yman had to suffer again from passing out several times.
The other instructors could only shake their heads at him. However, Instructor Goki was secretly cheering on him.
But from a distance. A girl was snorting, "Tsk, that guy is literally a waste. I wonder why he kept on staying in the academy. Even though the academy doesn't need him." Kesha muttered.
The blonde girl just rolled her eyes and thought that Yman was struggling for nothing.
"Look, that guy, he passed out again. He really was the weakest in the academy." Some girls pointed out.
Regardless, his vision had started to dim. Not only was he physically weak, but at the moment his stamina was also very low. He needed more rest to regain it. Although, he passed out again. But Yman felt that his CE already hit the peak. He was excited somehow.
But right now, he had to succumb in the face of exhaustion, and slowly closed his eyes.
Keremi and Bob immediately ran to his side and took him into the medical tent.
After laying him down. The two left the tent and continued their training. Yet, after the two left, a girl sneak-in inside.
