Ascension of the Nephilim



"It has been a week…" A man stood over one of the peering towers of the academy. His house had an excellent view over the entire land.

The man had a serious expression, and after hearing all the reports, he finally determined that there was something strange with the new teacher, Emeros.

Since returning to the Floating Continents, Prince Alistair had suddenly gained grounds and various lucrative trade deals.

His strength has also increased, and more Commanders appeared among his ranks.

It was reported that Prince Alistair had begun to secure equipment and materials for Alchemy, Energy Conversion Circle, Enchantments, and Blacksmithery.

In the academy, reports of how Emeros could knock out a Senior Teacher were made known. Although Senior Teacher Artes had claimed it was an ambush and a trick, the Crown Prince did not want to leave anything unchecked.

His brother, who had no chance and was not even a threat in the race to kingship, was now making daring moves!

Students who were nobles who sided with the Crown Prince were sent down to the region but couldn't find the exact location of Emeros and his class!

Reports of strange mists, illusions, and even students that disappeared for hours and would resurface with no memory of what had happened occurred.

Crown Prince Rupert Fardur Powenquis was in deep thought. He had analyzed and anticipated the movements of those who wanted the throne. Still, the sudden actions of Alistair were the most significant and strangest wildcard.

"Prince Rupert. It seems that the Teacher that Alistair brought is troubling you!" A young noble laughed.

He was Rupert's best friend and constant companion. Like Rupert, they held a unique position known as Student Teacher. While they were students, their expertise in various fields made them capable teachers! The man was not a native of the Floating Continents but was the sworn brother of Rupert and a son of a noble in the Continents Above the Sky!

"At first, when I heard that my brother wanted to register as a teacher in this school and that the teacher would be barely a teenager, he was making strange actions. I thought his action was caused by a secret alliance with another member of our siblings. But this Emeros not only passed the test that Artes gave, he even managed to convince Principal Pedagog Xilar Burner to remain a teacher! It seems that my brother found someone of amazing talents."

"...Ha! A teacher from the mortal realms? They might as well find the Heritage of the Unknown King if he wants to make that lie. Prince Rupert. It's obvious what this is! It's a farce. That boy must have been someone from another continent or even from the Continents Above the Sky to have such capabilities! Are we not as skilled and knowledgeable as him? We only retain our positions as students due to our master's orders to learn and find the foundations that many Master Teachers have here..."

"I have guessed that this boy is not of normal origins. But he did manage to convince a Pedagog! I need information. Whoever this boy is, likely, Alistair is not his master. Have we not heard of the reports that he doesn't even call Alistair a Prince? He is a puppet. But who is pulling the strings?"

"Why don't we... find out? If the Prince is so worried, I can pull my strings!" The noble smiled.

"You would enlist someone from your land to deal with such trivial problems?" Prince Rupert laughed.

"Ah... But has not Prince Rupert determined that the cause of this is someone from my own land?" The noble smiled.

"...Then so be it. Jezael, If you want to help, I won't ask you not to." Rupert grinned.

"It's fairly easy. One of the physicians assigned to this school serves my family. He is quite good at assassinations. I can tell him to make quick work of this teacher."

"It would be best not to assassinate Emeros, Jezael."

"Of course, I know that!" Jezael laughed.I think you should take a look at

"I don't mean to assassinate. But we will have what we need and easily cross off this hindrance. He will have to secretly meet with Emeros. We've used him to draw out information. A secret magic that belongs to my family that we dare not publicize. But this man has knowledge and skill that would have made him a Pedagog! He is a master of Memory Sifting. Emeros won't feel a thing or even sense it."

"So... Pedagog levels up in the Continents Above the Sky are not the peak?"

"Of course. One thing you must learn, Prince, and why we are helping you here, is that there are greater powers to which Pedagogs bow." Jezael smiled.

"Then give the orders. I hope to find the truth of this matter."

"As you wish, Prince." Jezael held out a small stone and transmitted a message.

Within the hospital wing of the academy, where numerous wounded men were brought in to cater to those wounded in monster hunts, skirmishes, wars, and the like... 

A doctor was busy working and acting with great haste and precision. 

Suddenly, the talisman deep inside his brain began transmitting the message.

The physician smiled.

"I was very curious about that boy. This will be fun." The physician thought to himself as he carried out his task faster.

In his break time, he would have to take a leisure stroll towards the Valley Below the Lake and capture a boy!

Half of the students had returned deep inside the Valley Below the Lake, finally bringing out a beast that would have surprised most elites.

A large Millipede that had the power of a Champion was brought in along with numerous millipedes of great sizes.

The appearance of the students no longer looked like mages. They had a strange armor made from the body parts, furs, and chitin armor of the monsters they killed. And all of them were showing off their Force energy.

"Teacher... We have finally brought it down." The students bowed.

Chevik was the leader of this group and was excited. 

"Good. You guys learn quickly!" Emeros was pleased.

"To slay a Champion with only ten students yet at Champion Level would place all of you at the top 200 of this academy. But it's still a long way to go! We have a week to train. But now that you finally slew a Champion, I should head back to town and buy what I need." Emeros stood up and closed the book he was reading.

"Do what you want... Chevik. Ensure no student or teacher breaks the formations I've made."

"Yes, Teacher!"
