Tenebrous Wolf

Time slowly ticked by, and thus, the rune language lesson ended.

It was 2:00 PM. Klaus had already finished the Tactical Survival lesson at 12:00 PM and had spent the past two hours studying rune language. More specifically, he had been learning the peculiar subject from a particularly quiet girl. As it turned out, learning from someone else was far easier than struggling through it alone. Naturally, someone with better comprehension skills could explain their understanding more effectively to another person. However, this largely depended on the subject in question. For instance, a person might excel in Geography, while another might thrive in Chemistry or Biology.

Truth be told, this wasn’t strange in the slightest. Perhaps it would be more fitting to refer to it as a form of ’uniqueness.’ Ultimately, no two individuals could ever be exactly the same.

Following this principle, Klaus’s grasp of Chaos Runes was still developing, whereas Yuki’s understanding was significantly more advanced. It wasn’t necessarily because she was better than him academically, but rather because her comprehension of that particular subject was sharper. As a result, she could process and explain it with greater clarity.

Even though her personality was somewhat questionable (and a little messed up), she didn’t seem to mind him pestering her about his ’weakness.’ Normally, Klaus would have been ashamed to rely on someone else, especially considering his unpleasant experiences in high school. His social anxiety and guarded nature made it difficult for him to seek help. However, he had no choice since mastering Chaos Runes was crucial if he wanted to survive his First Departure!

Truly, nothing could be done about it!

Everything went fine, so I shouldn’t be too bothered. For that matter, I don’t think it will be long before I fully comprehend the Hermes and Elvis languages.

With a satisfied smile, Klaus continued his casual stride. After his lesson with Yuki, the two had gone their separate ways as usual. Since the academy’s library was positioned at the center, hence why it was called the Central Library, those from the North, West, East, and South Divisions could all access it with ease.

For the young Awakened, this was ideal. He could take his time walking while keeping an eye on his surroundings. Ascension Academy was filled to the brim with countless marvels, so it was only natural that one would wish to explore.

Fundamentally, humans had always possessed an insatiable desire to venture into the unknown. No, the same could be said for demons as well. If Briar had been with him, she would have observed the world through his Soul Stream. Unfortunately, the succubus had no such desire and remained in his dormitory, messing around with her Mini Pad. It was as if she had transformed from a proud demoness into a complete neet!

Ah, wasn’t that the case? As the thought crossed his mind, a wry smile tugged at the corners of Klaus’s lips.
