Chapter 45 Is Goren Crazy? And Fiona’s Hardcore Training
The morning came, and Fiona was not going to class today. She had plans to go to the gravitational training room.
While she was walking by, her path was blocked by a young man. She looked up and saw a familiar face.
It was Goren! He had heard Fiona's conversation with the professor and that she planned to not attend class today, because she would be going to the gravity room to train.
Goren saw this as a chance to finally be able to talk to Fiona alone. She was always with the other two girls, so he had not been able to get a chance to talk to her alone.
Finally, he heard the conversation between Prof. Hawkin and Fiona. He did not want to miss this chance.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in class?" She asked while looking up at him.
Goren shyly responded, "Mmm, b-but I was going to ask you something."
"What?" she said with an indifferent expression.
Goren gulped his saliva and said, stuttering his sentence, "D-Do yo-you l-like me?"
"Huhh?!! What the f*ck are you talking about?" Fiona fiercely glared at him before walking away from him. She thought that this guy was just as crazy as Noah and decided to just ignore him after saying her words.
Her action was immediately misunderstood by Gorin. [Waittt! Is it really what I expected? She really likes me?! She was angry that I found out about her feelings for me] he thought inwardly.
To be honest, no one really knows what girls are like. They always gave mixed signals. Girls are just strange creatures that are hard to understand. Unlike boys, who go straight to their point, for example, if they decide to eat somewhere, that's where they are going, while girls will always change their mind.
So it was easy to misunderstand girl's intention sometimes. No one can really blame Gorin.
Just that his misunderstandings were just on another level of misunderstandings. He was being delusional to the point that he starts creating a false reality in his mind.
While walking towards the gravitational training room. Fiona was contemplating whether to just ignore Gorin and not talk to him in the future. She thought that this guy was going to be another Noah.
She finally arrived in the training room and went to talk to the one in charge of it.
The one in charge of the gravitational training room was none other than the second elder Silvanna.
She was a bit surprised by her arrival because Fiona was a first year student and she should not have obtained any points yet. So she simply thought that she was just her to ask some questions.
But the next moment, she directly exchanged twenty five points for five hours of training in the training room, which shocked her even more.
This was academy points! Not just anything that can be picked up from the ground.
Fiona decided to use twenty five points for this training, and she would use the remaining points to access and study the skills recorded in the library.
After talking to Elder Silvanna, she headed inside the room. The room It was also made of special materials that were extracted from space, and how it worked was that, it increased the gravity to however much you could handle, which could train your physique.
They would feel much lighter and faster compared to when they first entered. It was able to go anywhere between one and one hundred times Pontiac's gravity. Compared to the earth's gravity, which was 1G, because of this planet's enormous size, the normal gravity was 50G.
Fiona was in the room and made up her mind to increase the gravity to four times that of Pontiac. That would be 200G, she instantly felt heavy and ended up kneeling to the ground with one knee supporting her, feeling her body very heavy.
Fiona decided to get familiar with it first and get started once she got used to it.
She stayed in the room for about five hours. Once she came out of the gravitational room, she instantly felt the changes in her body. Her bones, muscles, and mana have become more powerful. Her physical appearance did not really change, the changes occurred internally.
If her punch before could destroy a house, now that her strength has increased twice as much as before. She should be able to create a huge crater in a small town. Of course, if she were on earth, her punch could destroy half of that planet if her fist was enhanced with mana.
She left the building, and her next destination was the library. She planned to go to the second floor of the library, as that was where the skill books were located.
The one in charge here was the third elder Folmon. He had the same reaction as Silvanna when she saw her.
Fiona wanted to find a defensive skill, as she did not yet have any defense type skills except for her monstrous physique. She asked Folmon if there was any defensive skill she could learn that was suitable for her affinity. Folmon then told her about Ice Armor, which was located at the top right corner of the room's bookcase.
She was able to find it, and once she found it, she took the book and sat down at a nearby table. Since this place was where people went to learn skills, there was also a room in the second room where everyone could practice the skill.
Fiona read the Ice Armor skill information. This skill allows you to encase yourself in an orb of ultra-fine ice, granting you resistance to both physical and magical attacks. Once the skills mastery reaches fifteen percent, you could also absorb your Ice Armor into your body, using the magical ice to repair wounds,
This skill was really suitable, like it was made just for her. Fiona was pleased with the skills functions. She decided to learn this skill and stayed for five hours.
Five hours have passed since she entered the library. Although she was unable to learn it, she still gained some understanding. She would have another chance in the future to learn it once she gets more Academy Points.
