Conquering The Game's World

It took over an hour before the doorbell of Luis' flat rang. When he opened the door, he saw a middle-aged man standing in front of him. He was wearing the academy's staff uniform and holding a parcel in his hands.

"Student, Luis Suarez. It's your delivery from the academy."

"Thanks for your hard work." Luis thanked him with a gentle smile as the staff placed the parcel in his hands.

"It's just my job." His tone was neutral. However, the slight smile on his face betrayed him.

When the staff left. Luis stood there for a few seconds, then shook his head and returned inside. 'Watching a middle-aged man acting tsundere feels so strange.'

*Clack*

Right after, he closed the door; he saw Alicia standing him front of him with folded arms and staring at the parcel in his hands intently.

"Hurry and open it!"

"Calm down for a second. At least let me return to the living room." Luis chuckled while passing by her and strode towards the sofa.

As Alicia followed him inside, she kept her gaze fixed on the parcel in his hands.

After unboxing the parcel. Luis started taking out the contents one after one.

"First is a note stating that I will receive a month's worth of Mana Drinks' supply. I can get it from my dorm manager."

"Huh?" Alicia let out a surprised sound. Then she nodded thoughtfully. "Well... it's indeed a generous reward in the eyes of other students, at least."

Luis put the note inside his mana bracelet. "This isn't the main reward. Besides, it's free. So, what's the problem?"

"..." Alicia couldn't argue with his reasoning, so she urged. "Just take out the next reward."

The next reward was a dozen bottles of High-Grade Elixirs.

"As expected, of the number one academy of Alnaur," Luis said with a smile, but his eyes looking at the bottles were flat.

He placed the Elixirs inside his mana bracelet. and

"Now for the finale..." Stopping his sentence midway, he took out the last reward that made him excited. "We have a Skill Book."

What appeared in front of Alicia's sight was a blue skill book with white patterns on it and a note sticking alongside it.

"So, it was this skill book that made you so interested. What skill is it and which rank?"

"Wait for me to read the note. After all, the skill they give as a reward is completely random. But I am sure that it must be above B-Rank."

"... Is that so?" Alicia followed Luis' gaze to see the note in his hands and waited for him to read.

"Wow! It seems I lucked out!" Luis said, as his lips curled up into a grin.

"Don't keep it to yourself. Tell me too. What skill is it?" she asked with impatience.

From his satisfied expression, Alicia could tell that it must be quite good, and this made her curious.

Luis smirked at her and revealed. "It's an S-Rank skill called Flying."

Flying (S): A prestigious skill denoting a profound mastery of aerial artistry. Upon activating this skill, the user can fly in the air and do breathtaking aerial manoeuvres with ease. The user can execute this skill with their mana. As such, it doesn't require the user to possess wings, magical artifacts, types of equipment, or other racial conditions.

After his revelation, Alicia became envious. For her, being able to fly would be extremely advantageous when fighting against an aerial opponent. Like at the time when she fought against Mira.

Because Mira was levitating in the air, most of Alicia's attacks didn't even reach her. If Alicia had been able to chase her in the air, she wouldn't have needed to face the onslaught of Mira's long-range attacks staying on the ground.

Some time ago, Alicia had tried to create bird-like wings using her ice element to fly in the air. However, it ended up in failure. The wings needed to be big so that they could carry her weight. Besides, she didn't have enough mana to maintain such huge wings. She also constantly needed to use her mana in order to manipulate ice and make her wings move.

The speed of flying wasn't fast enough, and the consumption was too much.

If she uses all her mana just to fly in the air for a few minutes, then how will she fight her opponent? After thinking of this, Alicia scrapped that plan. At least until her mana reserve is at the level of an S-Rank magician.

This is why, when she saw an S-Rank flying skill, Alicia became envious of him. However, she didn't speak a word to express her desire. She had a feeling that Luis would give her that skill if she asked him, but she didn't want to do that.

Knowing well the allure of flying in the sky, she didn't want to be a greedy girl who took advantage of her fiance's affection for her.

Luis didn't seem to notice Alicia's envious gaze as he looked at the skill book for a few seconds, then said with a sigh.

"Although it's an amazing skill, but I still would have preferred something else."

His words stunned Alicia for a few seconds, then she snapped out of her daze and her brows twitched in annoyance.

"Don't you want this skill? You should know very well the advantages of being able to fly."

"Of course, I know that, but I have several alternatives that I can use as a substitution for the 'Flying' skill. Which is why this skill is not very necessary for me." Luis said with a serious expression.

What he didn't tell her was that in the Ancient Magic Book, there's a lightning element movement spell, which is much better than this 'Flying' skill. It's just that he needs to be C-Rank to be able to use that spell. Otherwise, his body won't be able to bear it.

Now learning a Flying Spell seems like a waste to him. When he won't use it much in the future.
