17 Final Title, the Hunter is set free in the World!

ONE VERY IMPORTANT THING!

I decreased the size of the continent! All of them in fact

Previously it was immense, if you forgot, the continent alone was around 4.5-4.8 times bigger than Earth's surface... A little bit hard to grasp.

I thought it would be possible to manage such a place, and I even had my own explanations... But I threw that away.

So I changed that to something much more manageable. This makes something easier to explain and set in motion.

The world is now a bit bigger than Pangea. Meaning, it would be about one-third of the size of Planet Earth's surface.

That's around 170000000 km² as I said, a third of the Earth. And it's pretty easy to visualize distances since the only thing you need to do is look for Pangea with the current countries' frontiers.

I am not specifying anything else here since it serves no point.

Sorry for such a sudden change. But I wanted a world that could be easier managed than some sort of super epic, giant Cultivation world.

And also, I will post the images for the Mc, Dae, and Petter down here when I come back from eating, you can vote on your favorite!

—-------------------

'Petter frowned in horror as he watched Dae stab a nail right in the middle of Philip's forehead.'

'It wasn't fast but it was certainly very precise.'

'However, this only showed how calm and resolute Philip was.'

'From his perspective, Dae sudden move wasn't really that fast, he could've easily evaded, however, he knew he couldn't and most likely, shouldn't. So he stayed still as he watched the nail approach his forehead, unmoving.'

'It wasn't as easy as it sounded… Perhaps that potion he drank helped him in staying still?'

/Pierce… Pierce…/

"..."

That… Is so… Calm, yet tense!

'Petter continued to watch as Dae stabbed more and more nails all around Philip's body.'

'It seemed painful, but Philip was completely still and Dae was extremely professional as if he had done that hundred of times.'

'It was so bizarre for Petter, that he thought Dae was a legendary pharmacist performing acupuncture on a legendary immortal...'

'As the seconds turned into minutes and minutes turned into an hour. Philip's body went from just half-naked to filled with nails.'

'Not even his fingers were spared, Petter couldn't look anymore by the time he saw Dae placing nails on Philip's nose, when that time came, he turned around and went to another room, and soon enough, he fell asleep due to the boredom.'

'It seemed all of the pressure from the past month came at once and he finally had his 'peaceful' sleep.'

"..."

{359…360… Done} Said Dae mentally to Philip

'Petter thought the two were silent, but in fact, that was a lie, as the two were constantly talking mentally with each other ever since the start.'

'Dae needed to instruct Philip so they could work together, else, this process would most likely fail.'

{It's hard to believe that there are 360 nails in my body right now, but again, whats the purpose of this?} Replied Philip

{The nails are there to stimulate the channels inside your body, it might sound like something from a martial art novel, but the energy you use every day, has to flow somewhere}

{It's true that some types of energy don't need such channels, the channels exist for a purpose, otherwise, we wouldn't have evolved to have them in the first place}

{In normal Humans these channels are normally shriveled or broken, the Humans were Earth had actually devolved and lost them since they didn't practice any sort of energy arts. But since we did all of that shit and bla bla bla, yours are now all open}

{And we need to stimulate them so the energies I am about to give you are properly passed through your entire body} Said Dae

{Let's just get this over with, I am not very comfortable with several dozen nails on my finger and back… And my head} Said Philip

{I know, it is a pain, but stick with it, for now, things will end soon} Said Dae

{First, we need to increase your other stats, while being careful as to not breach the barrier of your Mind stat}

{This Talent we are aiming for, actually has 5 different stages, well, infinite if you consider its true potential, but getting even two is almost impossible for someone, much less more than 5…}

After all, not everyone has future knowledge to help them… If 5 is already practically impossible for me, imagine for others.

Its all thanks to that 'small' event that I can have Philip get the fifth stage.

{First, we will open your body potential and then, we will break open your limits all at once, and with that your Talent will come} Said Dae

{If that's the case... I am ready} Said Philip

'Dae nodded as he picked up a small flask from his inventory.'

{First, the Physical stat. That's pretty straight foward} He said as he took out a flask filled with some sort of sand from a box on the ground

{Eat this and let the energy flow in your body, don't resist it, no matter how painful it is} He said as he pored the sand down Philip's throat

'Since he couldn't move, Dae had to be very precise since Philip couldn't even open his mouth that well.'

{...Urg… Do you have something for me to drink? Swallowing sand is very hard… I think I am suffocating here!}

{I have it, I have it…} Said Dae as he picked a bottle full of water

{...}

{Did you drink it all?} Asked Dae

{I think there are some left on my teeth…}

{So it's fine… It should start soon…}

'Philip started to sweat heavily, at the start it was only sweat, but as time went on, it started to get a dark coloration… Some were bloody red…'

{THIS FUCKING HURTS! IT FEELS AS IF MY BLOOD WAS SWITCHED FOR MAGMA!}

{It's okay, resist it for now, please…}

The effect is bigger than I predicted, I guess all of these potential boosting effects were really worth it.

But I hope it wasn't too much...

I even had him unequip his Class and Titles so they wouldn't get in the way… But I guess it was still beyond what I expected…

If it's already this much just by himself... If his Titles were equipped...

This only means we need to be fast, otherwise, the chaotic energy will break the limit sooner than I planned…

{Alright, let's continue}

{WHAT?! Just like that?! I barely had time to process this!}

{I told you it was going to be painful, so focus and listen to me} He said as he took another bottle from his inventory

{I will inject this energy into your body just like the bottle, so make sure… To not move! Else you will die}

{I don't like where this is going…}

{Let's do it!} Said Dae

{...}

'A traditional magic circle appeared in front of Dae as the contents from the bottle poured out.'

'It was in fact, the energy Dae had previously collected from when he was trapped in the darkroom!'

{This will hurt…} Said Dae

{End my life…} Replied Philip

{Heh… Not so easily, there is a lot to do yet my friend}

{...}

'Slowly, the strange, prismatic energy from the bottle started to move like a snake in the air, and under the guidance of the magic circle, it entered Philip's nose.'

'After all of it entered Philip, an extremely complicated magic circle flashed on the ground…'

{AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCK?! WHAT THEEEE…} Screamed Philip in pain inside Dae's mind

{...}

I know… I know… But you must resist…

'As Dae said that, he looked at a small clock on his waist. Almost done…'

/Change of POV…/

'PAIN, not just any 'pain', but a pain so great that I doubted I could ever forget this feeling.'

[Castle town ***** soothes your mind]

[Castle town ***** stops you from falling unconscious]

[Castle town ***** impedes your mind from colapsing]

[Your Unyielding spirit refuses to give up]

[You maintained your composure…]

[Your body is being torn apart from the berserk energies!]

[A strange energy heals your body back into its full state]

[Your physical body is being strengthened by an unknown force! Physic + 0.1]

[A fragment of ***** is being refined and purified inside of your body! Spirit + 0.8, Energy + 2]

[Castle town *****....]

'If the pain wasn't enough, the constant sounds of the system brought Philip to the verge of madness.'

Shut up… please…

[Physical + 0.1]

This hurts… A fucking lot. Can I get a break?

'Philip wanted to sleep, but he knew he couldn't, the only thing that gave him strength was knowing this was going to end at any moment and that he was going to get some free time.'

"..."

'Dae also observed Philip, he was very attentive so that in the case anything went wrong, he would be there to fix it.'

Just one more thing and this will be over…

'Dae took out a red jar from his inventory.'

It's time for you to work.

{Philip, still holding there?}

{... Barely}

{Last thing and we are over}

{Great!} Replied Philip

{I just need you to say a phrase…}

{Just tell me already!}

{... I wish to make a contract with you. Its just that}

{Really?}

{Yes, you can talk if you wish, just don't open your mouth more than a few degres}

"... I wish to make a contract with you…"

/Tremble!/

'The red jar suddenly jumped from the ground like a rocket and… Fused with Philip's head?'

{What the?...}

{Phew, it is over}

[DING!]

[The contract has been made]

{Just like that?} Asked Philip in confusion

[The Ancient Tool, ***** recognizes you as its owner]

[Your potential scares *****]

[It has deemed you worthy to be called a Master]

[It lends part of its strength as a gift from the contract so you may accomplish your current goal]

[***** Has entered hibernation to recover from the excessive energy loss]

[*****]

{Take a look at your stats} Asked Dae

{...}

[...

Mind> 90.2 (99.9) (+)

Physical> 93.9 (99.9) (+)

Energy> 95.8 (+)

Spiritual> 89.5 (99.9) (+)

Mystique> 390 (+)

…]

{Jesus! This Mystique!}

{Dont get used to it, this is only a result of making the contract, it's called, Fate bubble expansion}

{But why is this?} Asked Philip as he felt the pain decrease considerably every second

{We have some time, so I will be brief}

{Mystique is a very hard stat to describe. It involves things such as luck, fortune, and others. But it also values, your Fate}

{How so?} Asked Philip

{Hum… Let's say, this world tends to keep watch on those that can grow strong enough to majorly affect it}

{You could call it being favored by the world, or… Cursed by it}

{Fate can be said to be your end potential, it's not just that but I need to be brief}

{The moment you made a contract with that item, your Fate shot through the roof due to its identity…}

{But wasn't I supposed to have no fate because of my lack of a Class?…}

{Philip, you aren't a true Zero fate, but… That and this are two different things… Ah fuck, what a trash way to end this talk} He said as he looked at the clock on his waist

I wanted to explain it in a better way but this will have to do.

{As soon as your stats get to 99.9 tell me and we will start the final stage} He said

{Sure… Done} Said Philip after a few more minutes

{Good, for now, you can relax a little, but don't move}

{...}

How can I relax without moving?

/Whispers…/

'Dae started to say a lot of gibberish, and as he said that, multiple circles, squares, and triangles appeared in the air.'

'They fused into one blob that turned into a large fuzzy ball.'

"Good, we are ready to finish this!" Said Dae for the first time in over an hour

{Waiting for you… The energy inside of me is starting to build up… I feel like I need to fart, but I can't, and the fart is getting stronger and stronger…} Said Philip

"..."

I hate to admit it, but that is a pretty accurate description…

"Alright, then Philip! See you in a few minutes."

{What?...}

/ZAP!/

'The fuzzy ball suddenly clapped, sending a thunderbolt in each of the 360 nails, the shock sent Philip unconscious immediately…'

[DING]

[DING]

[DIN…]

'Sounds of notifications could be heard on Philip's head, but he was, unfortunately, somewhere else…'

'Dae looked at his fallen friend, and knowing he was alright, he smiled as he clenched his fist in excitement.'

"I did it… WE succeeded!"

HAHAHA!

/Sniff…/

'Dae finally realized the smell of burnt meat in the room, and he suddenly felt guilty, so he picked Philip and put him on top of a comfortable mattress.'

"Rest well, there is still some things I need to tell you before you go…"

/Around 2 hours later/

"... And take this as well." Said Dae as he gave Philip a book

"This is?" Asked Philip as he opened the book

"Everything I just told you and more is on this book, it is to help you take care of any possibility when you go out there. At least most of them."

"I see, I will make good use of it." Said Philip

'Dae nodded, somehow, he felt emotional, finally, the start of everything was coming to an end.'

"Is there anything else you would like to assist you? Although we will see each other soon, if you do get that Magical item I told you about, we would be able to talk anytime we wanted, else, we will see each other in 5 months." Said Dae

"Yes there is, you see after my race changed, I gained a new Title."

"Hm… What sort of Title?" Asked Dae

There are too many possibilities…

"Evolver. Do you know what it does?"

"..."

'Dae was pensive.'

"I don't know much about it, in fact, I don't know shit about it."

"That's… A problem." Said Philip

"It isn't, because I saw something similar several times. So I have a pretty good idea on how we should proceed."

"Tell me what Titles you have and I will guide you."

'Philip noded.'

"With that out of the way, let's start." Said Dae

"Fuse it with 5-Origin Body." Said Dae

"Already?" Asked Philip in surprise

I just got this Title.

"It's perfectly compatible, it will only waste space in your screen if you don't use it."

"Sign… Alright."

Activate effect, Endless mutation

[DING]

[Choose the target]

Fuse Evolver with 5-Origin Body

[Processing…]

[The two Titles are very compatible]

[Fusing complete]

"Is it done? Take a look." Said Dae

"Uhum…"

[Golden Evolver

Description: You seek to unshackle from the mortal body you currently reside in. One step at a time you will reach greatness through constant evolution.

But senseless evolution is not what you seek, its the perfection in the flesh, the mystery of the soul, the spice in the mind, all of it is a perfect balance, a golden ratio, only through that can you achieve a perfect evolution.

...

]

"This Title just got more absurd." Said Philip

"This is just the start… Now, fuse Number 1 and Pioneer into it."

"Sure thing… This is going to get ridiculous…"

[Processing done]

[Apex Evolver

Description: You seek to unshackle from the mortal body you currently reside in. One step at a time you will reach greatness through constant evolution.

But senseless evolution is not what you seek, it's the perfection in the flesh, the mystery of the soul, the spice in the mind, all of it is a perfect balance, a golden ratio, only through that can you achieve a perfect evolution.

No one can stop you and all the tries shall become fuel for this endless mutation.

To seek a path none have traveled before, and to go beyond all others…

Effects: Body potential is greatly increased, along with your body's natural adaptation towards environmental changes.

First contact, your body creates a passive resistance to all environments it comes in contact with once. The degree of resistance depends on your body quality and how extreme the environment is.

Great Psyche, your body has breached into its true potential, and hence, all of its attribute's raw values have been increased.

Your evolution choices have been considerably enhanced due to your great body quality. With the chance of one high Tier evolution appearing due to it achieving 5-State balance.

Your body can take and handle foreign sources of energy to a considerable degree without hurting itself. This may change depending on the origin and purpose of the energy.

This Title can be linked with another Title allowing for two Titles to be equipped at once.

One extra effect may or may not be generated when another Title is linked.

>Extra effect: Endless mutation

This Title can be fused permanently with another Title; this effect has a chance to carry on to the new Title depending on the compatibility.

>Extra effect: Golden body

You achieved the impossible and evolved towards an impossible path, achieving the obscure 5 state body.

The Golden body is constant and as such, it boasts of the same level defenses of its outside to its inside.

The Golden body strives to keep the balance of the energies within itself.

>Extra effect: The path ahead

You can see up to one evolutionary choice ahead.

>Extra effect: Apex

Terrifically increases the learning speed of new subjects.

Greatly increases all attributes when being challenged. The effect can be bosted and decreased based on your feelings.

/Evolver has absorbed 3 Titles/

]

"It worked! Now what?" Asked Philip as he looked at the absurdity in front of him

"I don't think there are any more Titles… From here on it would be a gamble, so it's best if we stop for now."

"In the future, when you get the ability to fuse Titles, things are going to get even more amusing." Said Dae

"But for now… I guess this goodbye." Said Dae

"..."

'The two shook hands.'

"A lot happened. I won't be an ingrate, so I say it here. Thank you for the help so far." Said Philip with a straight face

"Don't be in such a rush to thank me, you will be asking to die soon enough."

"Just like a few moments ago?"

"That is only beginners mode, Hell mode will start soon. It will come even faster if you can do those tasks." He said

"... What about you? What will you do while I am gone?"

"I will continue to train Petter and the others, there are also many things I must get and do while in the wing of the royals."

"There is also the need to get stronger myself… After I do this process on Petter, I need to find a way to do it on myself."

It's the simplest and most effective way to raise your stats early on… I can't let these materials go to waste…

I won't find replacements for them anytime soon.

'Dae looked at his hand watch, it was one he brought with him from Earth.'

'It said: 2Pm.'

"It's getting a little late, people would soon start to notice our disappearance if we don't go eat." Said Dae

"Remember the path I told you about, even though most patrols are away, that doesn't mean you can just stroll out of this place. In the meantime, I will go back with Petter, this should buy you some more time."

"Alright, until next time." Said Philip as he turned around and left

"If Petter wakes up, tell him he owns me some drinks."

"I will." Said Dae as his face got serious

So it starts.

'Philip could now be seen walking in the middle of the forest, he walked nimbly and fast, making sure to not leave that many tracks.'

"This place is fucking big… Not to mention the insects… I hate this place."

I am not afraid of most insects however, this doesn't mean I am fine with a centipede the size of my arm crawling on my back.

"But I think I am far away enough…"

'Philip remembered Dae's words.'

I need to kill as many of them as possible in the shortest amount of time.

This means…

'Philip let out a full smile.'

I was tense after this past month, I was in need to blow some steam, even more after today.

'Philip removed several items from his inventory…'

'A dark sword clad in grayish chains.'

'There were bloodstains on the sword and the chain.'

'A hunter-inspired leather armor with some metallic parts. It came with a cool hat and a mask that covered his face.'

'And a large pistol, it looked chunky and heavy.'

"It has been a while… Oh shit, I forgot to clean them..."

Did I ever fight with my full strength ever since I came out of the memory?

"I don't think so…"

Ever since I came back, I have always been holding myself, normally, which would be taxing for most, but since I had a mental Trait, it was pretty easy to keep my composure.

But that doesn't mean I am not tense…

I just want to punch something in the face!

Nothing beats the feeling of making a 10-meter tall monster fall to its knees!

'Philip grasped the dark blade and put on the equipment.'

'He strapped the pistol to his waist and couldn't help but feel rather comfortable.'

"It's been a while you two…"

My trusty gear, the best of everything I had…

'He looked at his sword.'

[DarkLight Sword +10

A terrific monstrosity of a blade birthed from the crazy ideas of a talented weaponsmith and his professor.

Made from the fusion of the 2 other blades, brought together by a material that seeks to consume everything.

The sword, despite looking like a chunk of metal bound in chains, is surprisingly balanced and sharp on the edges.

Its power remains sealed due to its creator fearing its true capabilities.

Looking at the sword invokes a feeling of distress… One shouldn't look for long if he doesn't have enough mental fortitude.

The Sword seems to whisper, although few can discern its true words.

]

"Did you miss me?"

The idea for this sword came from a mysterious encounter I had in the dream.

While exploring the nooks and crannies of the city for loot and other things, I came across an immigrant whose name I forgot.

He wanted nothing more but to continue his dying lineage, so he needed someone to take on his mantle and learn his techniques.

At the time, I thought, why not? So I accepted…

Next time I opened my eyes I was in a desert…

After fighting my way through countless creatures I had never seen before, I found this sword being held by a strange mummified monster.

It was quite a strong monster as well, it used some kind of strange magic I had never seen before.

To this day I think it was quite a shame the guy died after I got out of the dream...

The Holy Sunlight Sword…

And its counterpart that I already had, the Holy Moonlight Sword.

And then I thought, why not fuse them together?

"A terrible idea… But it came to fruition when I found this strange ore in the depts of the Chalice Dungeons… A strange ore that seems to absorb other things into itself."

However, it couldn't absorb the two swords, so that's where the idea to forge a sword combining the three came from.

And this is the result…

I used a metal I found in the belly of a strange whale I found on the shores of a fishing village since it also couldn't be absorbed by the metal, its only downside is the fact that it's quite cold to the touch.

"But the problem came with what happened after…"

The more blood it absorbed from all of the monsters I killed, the stranger it got, even more so after I killed a great one with it.

And another... And another one...

So I sealed it in the hopes I wouldn't be corrupted by it... More than I already was.

"I don't think that is a problem anymore, so I might as well unseal it…"

But not before checking my other things…

[Nightmare Hunter Set+10

How deranged does a person need to be to skin a Great one and use its skin to make clothes?

Valuable and rare minerals were used to make this armor.

Despite looking as if it's made out of leather, the armor actually has many metallic alloys hidden inside in a way that it does not compromise mobility.

However, this makes the armor incredibly heavy...

A proper set of clothes for the Terrific and thankless task that is slaying a Nightmare.

"If you are going to die, might as well do it in style?" is written on the inside the hat

]

[Beast Buster +10

Designed with modern techniques and crafted with resistant alloys, this is a Pistol designed to penetrate thick plates.

It was enhanced from an Older Blueprint made by the Power kegs.

It packs a heavy punch, so it needs a wielder with a lot of strength to wield it.

All of this power comes from its intricate mechanism and the engineering behind it. So only a very experienced and specialized Hunter would be able to properly do maintenance in it.

]

"Good, I missed you all."

There are still some goodies in my inventory, like my Hunter tools, but they will have to wait for now.

Hm… Were they always this light? Or was is it because I got stronger?

"Talking about getting stronger… I actually forgot about this!"

'Philip opened his secondary system tab.'

"Not much increased in this since most of my Skills are already maxed, however… Those stats bother me."

I do have a lot of Echoes I didn't spend when I came back to this world.

Now is the perfect time to spend them!

"Summon messenger shop." Said Philip as he stared at the ground

/Blop!/

'Like a stone falling in water, the ground trembled as a small fountain appeared.'

'A bunch of strange creatures appeared, they looked like a bunch of mummified corpses.'

'They mumbled incomprehensible words as they moved their hands around the place. As if seeking something.'

'However, the funny thing was that all of them had different style hats on their head, they made sure to keep them steady on their tiny heads.'

"Nice to see you all again boys, now, let's get to business."

'Another window appeared in front of him, he went towards the, Level up tab.'

'After distributing his stats and pressing on confirm, he saw as most of his blood echoes disappeared.'

"Not even close… I need 98 more Levels…"

I need over 100 Million Echoes for that… What a drag…

(130 to be specific...)

Even if I only kill enemies worth 1K Echoes, I would need to kill over 100K monsters.

(Or 10K enemies worth 10K echoes...)

I hope those Orcs are valuable…

'Fully equipped and with all of his items ready. Philip made his way deeper into the forest'

'He soon turned into mist as he disappeared amidst the trees.'

/CLANG!/

/CLING!/

'Deep in the forest, near the foot of the mountains, a settlement of Orcs could be seen in an open field.'

'There seemed to be dozens of Orcs all around the place, however, it was clear most of them were males.'

'They had their primitive houses and the females were nowhere to be seen, however, a small orc could be seen from time to time.'

'To pass time, most orcs fought against each other, very few would do something else like smithing and tailoring, that's why most of the orcs were only wearing clothes to protect their waists…'

"!!"

'One of the fighting Orcs suddenly stopped fighting, looking around in distress.'

'He felt as if something really dangerous looked at him, just like when the tribe chief looks at him.'

"Kik Ikik?" Asked one of the orcs

'His opponent was confused.'

"..."

"Uj Kob..."

'The Orc shook his head… It was definitely a mistake.'

"..."

As expected, they are just wild Orcs.

There are two main types of Orcs, wild and Social Orcs.

Social Orcs, also called High Orcs are a race of Orcs that have developed acute mental cognition, allowing them to develop into a society no less complex than that of Humans.

Wild Orcs are seen by High Orcs just like how Monkeys are seen from a Human perspective.

[Lv 14]

[Lv 11]

[Lv 17]

[Lv 10]

'Most of the Orcs were between Level 10 and 20, that's quite something considering how hard it is for even a trained soldier to achieve within a few years.'

"Considering these Orcs have been gathering here for less than a decade with no formal training..."

This shows how stronger Orcs are when compared to normal Humans.

'Philip never underestimated his enemy, but seeing their levels did make him more comfortable.'

"Where is their tribe chief? When you fight such groups it's always a priority to kill their leader and special corps first."

Like Leaders and magic casters...

You wouldn't want someone ordering the enemy and casting magic.

And if I want to kill as much of them as possible, then I will need to do the classic…

'Philip took out a pellet from his inventory and ate it.'

'His eyes got red as his veins started to pop out of his skin. His muscles expanded and his finger got sharper.'

'He got a little taller as well...'

"Haa…"

'Philip exhaled a thick white mist.'

"I hate this taste…"

/CRACK!/

'Philip cracked his neck as he turned it to the side.'

"Much better..."

[Enhanced Crimson Beast Blood Pallet

Large medicinal pellets, supposedly formed of coagulated beast blood. Banned by the Healing Church due to their unclear origin. Grants a spurt of beasthood.

This is a Pallet made from the elusive blood of a Crimson beast.

The original prescription was further enhanced by a mad Hunter who had a resilient mind, it lasted way longer and provided much more strength at the cost of guaranteeing one to become a beast.

Ripping apart the flesh of one's enemies and being rained up by their splattering blood invigorates one's sense of beasthood, feeding strength and euphoric feeling alike.

It was a mystery as to what was passing in its creator's mind when this pill came into the world.

]

[Castle Town protects your mind, you have retained your sanity]

"Let's go."

/Fuaa…/

'Philip jumped and started to run, his body turned translucent as thin mist was left behind as he ran at high speeds.'

Notes

I will add the images as soon as I come back from eating.

And as I promised, here are the characters that appeared so far: (Most of them)

--------------------------------

Here is the list of characters that appeared until chapter 16!

I won't be counting the new world people! This obviously includes some spoilers.

.

University executives:

>The one above all!- God Emperor Avis, whose age precedes that of the Abyss. Arthur Vista 110 years old.

>Department of mechanical engineering- Mr shiny head, bald black guy, he is tall and strong. But overall, he is a nice guy.

>Department of Electrical engineering- Mr egg is a dwarf of a man with a big round belly, his pale skin and tendency to use white clothes, tends to make people associate him with an egg. His temper is short but he gets the job done.

>Petter -> The guy who wanted revenge against Foust. .

Teachers: 3

>Miss Mary, 28, rather shy but professional. Has long dark hair and wears casual modern clothes. She seems just like a university graduate.

And in fact, she is. Having just started her professional career she was already met with this situation. She is the history teacher.

>Miss Danielle,31, she looks fierce and acts fierce! She has a tomboyish look. No wonder… She was the PE teacher.

Her clothes consist of tank tops and mini shorts. Although she wears a gym jacket most of the time… Of course, her skin is slightly tanned.

>Miss Charlotte, "29", or so she says. Most likely a 34 or higher. She has a very strict look. She wears thick glasses and a rather long skirt, her dark hair is braided into a ponytail.

She would be beautiful if her fashion sense wasn't so old and stiff. No surprise, she was the Math teacher.
