Apocalypse: I Have One More Keyword Than Others

With this credential, he could move around within the novice-level mecha training section, purchase mechas, spar with peers, and participate in various competitions organized by the battle network, among other activities.

However, the novice-level module was essentially a newbie village, populated by beginners, and the mechas available in the stores of the novice module were mostly basic models.

It could be said

that this was a place for amateur novices to entertain themselves, and it was rare for any experts to appear.

Anyone with a bit of skill would quickly clear the newbie village and progress to a higher-level module to spar with peers of the same level, improve their skills, and train their adaptability to various mechas.

In reality, practicing with mechas is prone to injury, and due to the precious and limited number of mechas available, students aren’t allowed to spend a lot of time in actual operation.

So,

most mecha training for cadets is completed in the battle network.

And to break through from the novice to the intermediate module, one must possess the skill of an intermediate-level pilot.

Of course, the skills of a novice pilot in the battle network, which don’t require much spiritual power, are a completely different concept from a novice pilot in the real world.

A novice pilot from the battle network might not even be able to walk steadily if they were to control a real mecha.

But pilots in the real world are trained for war, and there’s only one way for an ace pilot to become well-known: that’s when they are adorned with medals. These scarcely satisfy the public’s curiosity about pilots.
