Chapter 166
"But they will be even more confused about our relationship like this!"
June complained, standing from his seat .
"Do you prefer to go through their harassment every day?"
June was silenced by Noah's retort .
"Anyway, it's just temporary . As soon as I leave the academy, things should calm down . "
"Wait, will you leave soon?"
Ivor appeared from one of the adjacent rooms and shouted at Noah in confusion .
June too seemed surprised by his statement and waited attentively for his answer .
Noah shrugged his shoulders .
"We can't stay here much longer, it's already our third year . Instead of remaining here for the whole year, it's better to take a profession in the Royal city and stabilize our position . "
Noah was already thinking about his job in the Hunters' guild .
He was constantly in need of materials for his experiments with the forging method and the position of a hunter could provide him with a wider assortment of resources .
Also, there was a problem with his power .
He was attracting too much attention on himself, he wanted to loosen the control that the Royals had on him inside the academy .
'I'm losing sight of my situation too . The academy is a peaceful place but the real world isn't . Here I feel that my hands are always tied, I'm just accumulating problems without solving any of them . '
All the troubles he had with Daniel's followers could be solved by simply killing the students .
However, that was prohibited due to his status as a student, and all those noble youths were left alive harboring hatred toward him .
'Once I become a rank 2 cultivator, I will leave . The faculties of the academy can't offer me much more at that level anyway . '
Places like the Sulfur domain lost their effectiveness on stronger cultivators .
After all, if they really could be useful at each rank, cultivators in the divine ranks would be a common sight .
June lowered her head in thought .
Noah's words made sense, they had to secure a position in order to ensure that their journey as a cultivator won't stop due to the lack of resources .
Also, leaving the academy didn't mean that they would lose access to the inventory, their status as students would be removed but they could still contact the Royals to make transactions .
It had to be said though that her situation was more complex that Noah's one .
He had to take care only of himself while June had a family full of expectations behind her .
"I think I won't stay much in Elbas city . I'm not really good at anything except for fighting and I can't be a Royal guard or I will neglect my family . Maybe, with the help of my Master, I might ensure a friendly relationship with the Royal dynasty and appoint my family in one of the areas near the capital but that's as much as I can do . "
Noah understood the meaning of her words .
She could not freely cultivate like him, every noble heir that managed to be enrolled in the academy would have to shoulder enormous expectations .
They would become the pillars on which build the future of their families, most of them would aim for the position of patriarch!
However, in Noah's eyes, those things were pointless .
