Nameless soul

Chapter 4: General knowledge



After reading the book these were the key points which Spade thought to be the most important of them.

'Once a star is prepared to venture outside the barrier they use a portal to the any of the three continens they wish to explore. On the other side of the portal they enter into human settlements outside the barrier which have been built around the portals on the other side.'

'After they are done with preparations they will leave the human settlement to go hunt monsters on suitable areas where the chances of encountering high rank monsters is less. The monsters are ranked from E to S rank but there are are different types of monsters in each rank. For example rank E has three types of monsters, first are the mindless beasts who only move on instinct and don't possess extraordinary abilities but still possess the necessary might to be of that rank, they are referred to as E- or Low E rank. The ones above them are possess extraordinary abilities along with increased might but the thing that makes them difficult to face is their intelligence which allows them to utilize their abilties and strength more efficiently, they are referred to as E or Mid E rank. The next ones are alot stronger but the most frightening thing about them is the abilty to command lower rank monsters who serve them they are highly intelligent are at the pinnacle of each rank, commonly referred to as E+ or High E rank.'

'Once a Star manages to kill a monster they can extract a 'Soul Crystal' from them. These crystals are very valuable and acts as a form of currency in the world of stars, and every star is also required to pay a portion of their Star Crystals to the government. The other thing that monsters drop is a Steller Essence this is the key to ascension to the next rank and is only dropped once a monster of a higher rank is killed by a Star of lower rank, but even then the chances of their drops are very low.'

'For a Star to ascend to the next rank they need to first completely master their own powers then they have to consume a steller essence of their own element to move to the next rank but once a Steller essence comes into existence they are required to be stored in a Crystal Orb or consumed right at that moment or they will transform into an item with powers related to the monster from which it originates. And that is also the case when a Star kills a monster of same rank or lower or lacks potential to ascend to next rank the item will be bestowed to the Star instead of a Steller essence.'

'Then there are the elements, each Star possess abilities related to their element and the known elements are Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Light, Dark and their combination and some variations like Ice, Blood, Plant etc. There is also another important condition for advancement the steller essence which is used to advance to the next rank should be of the same element as the user and those which come from combination of two or more elements they will need to find either a Steller Essence of same element or find 2 or more different Steller Essence of the Elements which make their element and combine them to create a Steller Essence to ascend to the next rank.'

Rubbing his forehead Spade said "That's just great, not only do I have an element which has never existed before but I get the feeling that my unique condition makes it unlikely for me to be use the Steller Essence from a monster even of the same element because I possessed two different elements at the start and then they were combined to form the Twilight element."

Well No point feeling bad about it now let's get something to eat and go to bed early today because from tomorrow onwards the training begins.

On the next morning, after freshening up Spade entered the training area. It was quite spacious to accomodate thousands of students which would be coming soon but for now it was very empty, there were a few who were working out or sparring with others and even among them a person with grey hair stood out the most.

Taking a closer look Spade came to realize that the young man was quite the handsome man but there was a sense of mystery about him because despite with his twilight sense Spade was not able to read the young man's thoughts.

Twilight sense was not an omniscient ability, but even through simplest of expressions and reactions it could gauge quite alot but this guy was different maybe they had an ability which made them immune to prying eyes.

Noticing Spade's gaze the young man noticed him and gave him a puzzled look but before things could progress Spade took his eyes of him.

'What are you a stalker... ' first everyone was thinking him is as weird for wearing a mask and now he will have a reputation of being a stalker as well.

Calming his nerves Spade got started he did some simple warm up exercises and then got to the intensive ones and despite knowing the changes his body has went through after awakening he was still shocked to see himself so much stronger. Spade might've been a tough muscular guy before he became a Star but the one currently occupying his body was one of the weakest in class but that wasn't the case anymore, let's increase the intensity

abit.

From then on his days went on just like that he spend his time training or acquiring knowledge about various sorts of monsters found outside, their weaknesses, how to use them in times of need etc but the most affective thing which he was dying to try was to be in actual combat with a Star and that wish would only be fulfilled once the regular classes start and that day was drawing near.
