Chapter 149: 149. Ways Of Ranking Up.
Looking at the list of missions that were given to him by the system, a smile appeared on Orion's face because he was pleased with the quests he was seeing.
As always, the system gave him tasks that wouldn't be too difficult for him to complete.
Also, there was no time limit attached to the quests, and this was because the system wasn't forcing him to fulfill any of the quests.
In a nutshell, Orion was reminded of why he loved his system, and with this thought in mind, Orion closed his eyes and fell asleep with a smile on his face.
The next morning, Evelyn and Elena said their goodbyes before leaving his room.
Evelyn returned home to the elf kingdom while Elena decided to meditate in seclusion.
Elena would continue meditating in seclusion until the club tournament began, which meant that Lucille would be in charge of everything that happened in the academy until Elena returned.
Elena was going to achieve a breakthrough from her current rank soon, so she needed to meditate behind closed doors to ensure that she successfully ranked up to become a new Apex Knight, and once she became an Apex Knight, she would be equally as strong as Ariel, the Lion King and all the other Apex Mages and Knights.
As a mage or knight, there were three ways one could improve their ranks, and that was by training, engaging in direct combat, and meditating.
Most of the Apex mages loved the last method because it was always relaxing and soothing.
If they wanted to meditate, all they had to do was head over to an area with a high amount of mana and spiritual energy.
Mages needed to isolate themselves in places that were rich with mana and spiritual energy while knights had to go through dangerous and hellish training in dangerous terrains for them to be able to achieve a breakthrough in their rankings.
However, since Elena could manipulate spiritual energy, she could also rank higher by meditating in places with a high amount of spiritual energy, and the best place for this was the elf kingdom.
Spiritual energy could be found anywhere in the mortal realm, but the amount of spiritual energy present in the elf kingdom was far greater than what could be found in any other kingdom in the mortal realm.
This was why Elena returned home with Orion's mom to meditate in isolation, rather than doing it at the academy.
Although the spiritual energy in the elf kingdom might be higher than that of any other kingdom in the mortal realm, it still wasn't up to five percent of what the spirit realm was made of.
Orion was currently on his way to see Sabrina, and while he was walking along the academy's corridor, one could see a huge smile on his face.
He was smiling because he understood the reason why his aunt wanted to meditate in seclusion and that was because she wanted to catch up to her sister's progress.
Surprisingly, his mother had ranked higher and was now above the mage rank. The sudden news caught Orion and Elena by surprise, and the two of them had their jaws practically hanging open when Evelyn revealed this to them.
Evelyn had giggled at the expression the two of them had on their faces and she had also teased them both about how hard they were going to have to work in order to reach the same rank as her.
However, Orion and Elena weren't hurt by what she said. Instead, they were both eager to grow stronger and rank higher as well, and this filled them with even more love and respect for Evelyn.
Orion was genuinely happy and pleased to hear about his mother being the first to rank higher than all the other Apex Mages and he couldn't wait to catch up to her or better yet surpass her as well.
Now, Evelyn was no longer an Apex Mage and she wouldn't be referred to as an Apex Mage anymore. Instead, she was now an Omega Mage in the mortal realm.
Also, she was no longer a Pseudo god like all the other Apex Mages in the mortal realm, rather, she was now a True goddess, walking amongst mortals, transcendent beings, and immortal beings.
Orion's smile broadened even more when he recalled that same goddess moaning countless times under his ministrations last night.
There was no doubt about it, he was certainly going to be the subject of envy from a countless number of men around the world if they found out that he actually slept with two goddesses.
Well, since he was an elf, it wouldn't take too long before the news became known to the public.
As an elf, it was normal to see children getting married to their parents, but it certainly wasn't normal to see a transcendent being banging two gorgeous goddesses on a daily basis.
Yep, the council of men would certainly declare war against him the moment this fact became revealed to them.
As a rank ten mage, Orion was not only a Master Mage, but he was also a transcendent being,
The rankings of mages were divided into several ranks.
The mortal ranks, The transcendent ranks, The immortal ranks, The Pseudo God ranks, The True God ranks, and one more rank which was unknown.
The mortal ranks include mages and knights like; Adrian, Arthur, and Aslan.
Transcendent beings were mages like Orion and a few other instructors at the academy.
Immortals were Professor Draco, Lucille, Daisy, and Sabrina. While Pseudo God ranks included the Apex Mages and a few other mages like Elena and Karen.
But now, Evelyn was the only mage in The True God rank, and this made her the strongest being across the four realms.
With that out of the way, Orion hastened his steps towards Sabrina's private study. He could have easily teleported himself to the doorstep of Sabrina's study room, but he didn't because he was trying to recall something he saw last night on the system's screen.
One of the missions given to him by the system requested that he clear a Rank C dungeon and labyrinth with the aim of becoming a Rank twelve mage.
That shouldn't be too difficult for Orion to do, but if he wanted to clear a dungeon in a different kingdom, he would need to obtain permission to do so from either the Headmistress or her deputy.
Unlike the lifespan of mages in the mortal rank, the lifespan of transcendent beings was way higher than that of mortals.
'There are nine mage ranks in the transcendent rank category.'
'It's similar to how there are nine mage ranks in the mortal ranks as well. However, the corresponding lifespans for each transcendent rank are far higher than that of mortals.'
Here are a few mages and knights ranks in the transcendent rank category with their corresponding lifespans.
===
Rank Ten:- Master Mage or Knight {10,000}
Rank Eleven:- Superior Mage or Knight {20,000}
Rank Twelve:- Advanced Mage or Knight {30,000}
Rank Thirteen:- Legendary Mage or Knight {40,000}
===
These were the current Mage and knight ranks Orion was hoping to reach before the end of the semester and he was prepared to work hard in order to obtain the ranks.
With his mind made up on what he wanted to do, Orion lifted his head and suddenly realized he had arrived in front of Sabrina's doorstep.
He knocked twice before stepping into the room.
To his surprise, he noticed Sabrina seated behind her desk while reading intently from the book she was holding. He greeted her before asking. "What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to recall the name of a herb I saw in one of these books and what it was capable of doing," Sabrina replied before closing the book.
Since Orion was here, she decided to discover the reason why he came to see her very early in the morning. Orion was meant to have a class this morning, so he wouldn't be staying in the room for more than a few minutes before he left.
Once he was gone, Sabrina would keep searching for the name of the herb in one of the books on her desk.
With this thought in mind, Sabrina lifted her gaze and asked. "You're having classes today, right?"
Since classes officially began today, it was only natural for Orion to have a class today.
"Yes, but I have just two classes actually. Culinary Class and Art class."
"Oh, it's that dumb cow's class."
"Dumb cow?"
"Yeah, I'm talking about Professor Daisy. Just try to be careful whenever you are close to the dumb cow."
"Why?"
"She's a demoness in the body of a beast woman. She also likes to lie about having a boyfriend and will use this lie to get anything she wants."
Orion listened attentively to what Sabrina had to say but he wondered why Sabrina was saying all these.
As though Sabrina could read his mind, she explained what she was trying to say to him. "Daisy tends to be a bit clingy to those she likes and it is really annoying."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Orion's face as he took a seat on a couch.
He could see that Daisy and Sabrina were close friends, or seemed to be because that was the only reason why Daisy could ever cling to Sabrina.
They didn't seem to be in any kind of relationship. It sounded like it was just a habit of hers to cling to those she liked. "It seems to me that she does this to you because she sees you as her friend."
"Maybe, you are right, but you still need to be careful around her."
Orion nodded his head in understanding.
He wondered about the possibility of Daisy ever clinging to him in a way that he was used to seeing Mia doing.
Based on what he had heard from Sabrina, Daisy seemed to be a beast woman with cow horns, ears, and a tail.
So, he couldn't help but wonder if Daisy was as busty as the cowgirls he had seen in manga and anime because if she was, then it wouldn't be that bad to have Daisy being clingy around him.
