53 [Bonus chapter]Taking A Walk Through The Base.
"Upgrade Dash and Regeneration."Looking at the skills and abilities, Zeras chooses to increase his Dash and Regeneration.
[Congratulations, Dash has been leveled up to level 3.]
[Congratulations, Regeneration has been leveled up to Level 2]
Dash-Level 3
Host speed has been increased to quadruple that of his normal speed.
Regeneration- Level 2
[Host will now recover from wounds twice faster than normal.]
Why did he choose to increase his speed and generation, Simply, he could feel that's what he'll be mostly in need of in the EIA training.
With that done, Zeras directed his attention to the system's new ability
[System Ability]
>>Scan: Ability to instantly learn the basic information of all living or non-living matters.
"Hmm, it's just like Its name." While it might appear simple, he could feel it'll be a handful in the future. It's like having an extra dictionary in hand.
Zeras stood up as he directed his attention to the watch. It was one of the Cadets' tools that was given to them.
It contains mainly the maps of the entire school, a means of communication with other students, receiving EIA updates, school rules, and the rankings of the students. Like on Zeras', the number 1 would always be seen if he wasn't trying to access any other thing denoting him to be the number one on the new cadets rankings. The only thing he probably hated about it was that it couldn't be taken off. It must be on the student's hands all the time acting as some information gatherer for the EIA in case of mishaps.
The Training will be beginning the next day and today was more of a free day for all the students to make them familiarize themselves with the environment.
As for Zeras, he'll properly make use of this free day by resting his head and brain.
Zeras immediately headed towards the bedroom and opened the door, giving himself a good nod due to the huge bed that was placed in the center of the room.
That was the most important thing in the entire place to him.
Immediately jumping on it, his bones let out a comfortable crinkling sound as an intoxicated smile appeared on his face.
To be honest, he would die a happy man if he could sleep on this till the end of eternity.
Zeras was about to drift into his smooth dream world when a beeping sound suddenly rang on his watch...
"Tch, talk of a bad timing..." Zeras snitched as he opened one of his eyes to stare at the notification. contemporary romance
<Quinn Voidspace>
<Hey man, where the fuck are you. I'm thinking of going out to explore this cosmos. What do you think? You'll join. Yes? That's great, I'm waiting for you outside, with a surprise too.>
"Damn kid, how did he even get my contact..." Zeras muttered as he looked at the notification.
"Hmm, exploring the cosmos? I'd rather sleep." Zeras ignored the notification as he sank into the comfort of his bed but he wasn't in it for long.
<Quinn Voidspace>
<Hey man. Hurry up, I'm in the splash zone right now and you need to be here. It'll be worth it, I promise.>
"Ahhh, ok, ok. You win kid..." Zeras said as he struggled to raise himself from the bed.
It wouldn't hurt to go out and check the base out too, he could even test out his new system ability. Win-win.
Zeras stood up as he moved towards the bed. Immediately arriving at the exit, he pulled open the door, exiting the room, and right in front of the room was a young man with silver hair who had a big smile on his face and wore a large dark glass in his eyes.
"Yoo-hoo, ready to go man?" Quinn said flashing Zeras a smile as he waved from the distance opposite his dorm room.
"You... Since when have you been here? What are you even doing here..." Zeras said as he slowly locked his door unconsciously tightening the knob even more than necessary.
"Tch, I live just five meters from you, can't you see..." Quinn said pointing towards the distance as Zeras looked at the house closest to him and truthfully, that was Quinn's dorm.
"Talk of bad luck..." Zeras muttered under his breath as he moved towards him.
"So where are we going..." Zeras said moving towards the exit when suddenly the third closest room to his dorm slowly opened and emerging from it was a young Elvian guy with long white hair and no pupils at all.
"Triton Elvianor?" Zeras said shocked.
"Zeras Celestria?" Triton too said shocked unbelievably as he couldn't believe Zeras was also living just opposite his dorm room.
"Are you also going to explore this new cosmos, brother? You can join in too." Quinn said waving at Triton.
"Hey, you..."
"Are you guys also going to check out the base? Nice, then we can all go together..." Triton said cutting Zeras off as the trio slowly moved out of the dorm.

Zeras felt his stomach rumbling as they'd been walking around the base for almost three hours now without a single rest.
"Ok, if I can remember very well Quinn, we've visited the Training area, The classes hall, the genetic serum hall, the Mana manual hall, and even the already visited New cadets building. I think that's all, right?" Zeras asked tiredly.
"Of course not, we've not checked out the second and third years area," Quinn replied...
"But that area is prohibited isn't it?" Triton asked shocked. The New Cadets are not allowed into the senior year area according to the rules.
"Ok, ok. But there's still an area left out and that's the...." Quinn asked looking at the duo as Zera's stomach rumbled once again.
"Um... Cafeteria?" Zeras asked subconsciously causing a smile to appear on Quinn's face.
"You're right? That's the last place we'll be heading." Quinn said dragging them in another direction.
"But visiting the cafeteria on the first day, that seemed a little unusual right? Besides the senior areas also make use of the cafeteria too. I believe crossing them right now is also a bad idea." Triton said doubt in his voice and also slight fear.
"Tch, you don't have any moxie man. You won't survive long in the EIA without Moxie bro. But don't worry, we won't spend long, just grab some food and exit. Eazy peazy?"
"Hmm, okay then." Triton finally agreed as Quinn dragged his neck towards the cafeteria.
As for Zeras, all he could think about right now was to fill his stomach.
