The Mythical Necromancer

I gained 5 attribute points. I expected something like this after leveling up. I guess I'll just put them into my strength and speed, since I need to improve my physical over mental.

Arthur allocated the points accordingly, feeling surprised at the difference:

⦗System⦘

⦗Name⦘: Arthur Grimwood

⦗Level⦘: 1 (30/500 exp)

⦗Guild Rank⦘: Only Available With Academy Certificate

⦗Military Rank⦘: Only Available After Reaching Platinum Guild Rank

⦗Physical Skills⦘: Only Available After Reaching Level 5

⦗Class⦘: ERROR

⦗Stats⦘:

Speed: 7

Aether: 9

Intelligence: 17

---------------------------

This wooden staff feels so much lighter in my hands, and I feel like I could set the world record for the 100 meter! And my Aether went up! Must be from learning how to infuse it in my attacks..

"T-thank you. I don't know what would have happened without you.." the boy whimpered.

"Thank you, for the exp. But please, stay more aware of your surroundings. Try to locate singular beasts rather than a group, if you want to fight. Otherwise, you can always go back," Arthur advised.

"I'll continue and try my best. But thank you again."

The boy looked like a commoner, with worn down clothing similar to Arthur, so he understood the boy's determination to continue.

...

Arthur realized that there was still time left, so he took this opportunity to get some exp.

After leveling up and gaining stats, fighting these beasts, even the larger ones. The notifications kept rolling in:

+35 exp

+50 exp

+35 exp

+70 exp

…

After killing countless beasts Arthur for a couple more hours had not only reached level 2 but also level 3, giving him an extra 10 stat points:

⦗System⦘

⦗Name⦘: Arthur Grimwood

⦗Level⦘: 3 (30/2500 exp)

⦗Guild Rank⦘: Only Available With Academy Certificate

⦗Military Rank⦘: Only Available After Reaching Platinum Guild Rank

⦗Physical Skills⦘: Only Available After Reaching Level 5

⦗Class⦘: ERROR

⦗Stats⦘:

Speed: 10

Aether: 13

---------------------------

The second trial should be over soon, he thought.

As if it read his mind, a soft ping shifted Arthur's glance.

⦗System⦘

⦗Stage 3⦘: Aether Trial

⦗Objective⦘: Show your capabilities with Aether

"What…?" Arthur mumbled to himself.

Do they want us to just use an Aether-infused attack??

He quickly located a nearby monster and with lightening speed, he infused an immense amount of Aether in his staff, stepped forward, and slashed down.

This all happened in the span of half a second.

On impact, the wooden staff shattered and the level 2 beast disintegrated instantly.

+35 exp

Oops, looks like the points I just allocated in Aether and strength made quite the difference.

⦗System⦘

⦗Trial⦘: Congratulations Arthur Grimwood. You were 1 of 12 students who passed this year's trial.

Suddenly, Arthur was spinning rapidly, feeling like he was falling off a cliff and shut his eyes.

After a couple seconds, he opened his eyes to see himself in a small, yet elegant looking room.

He looked around and saw 11 other students including Ella and Damien, who had a look of surprise on his face.

"You got lucky this time, Grimdirt was it? Even though you passed, you must've only reached level 1," Damien smirked with his superiority complex, "I was able to reach level 2 and the stat point I gained from it puts me at a different level than you."

Arthur looked shocked.

"Ha, surprised are you Grimdirt?"

He only got 1 stat point for leveling up?? But I get 5.

Silently, Arthur decided it would be best to not tell anyone this, for now.

"Congratulations, all of you," A voice boomed.

All the students turned around to see the Headmaster standing there, his prescence creating a strong pressure.

The Headmaster sighed because of how few passed. However when his gaze shifted to Arthur, his eyes widened.

"Level 3? Just how fast where you killing these beasts? We haven't had someone reach level 3 in the Trial for decades."

He can see my level? Well I guess I should've expected that from such a profound master. Anyways, I probably reached level 3 so quickly due to the fact that I have been getting 5 times the stat points.

Ella, Damien, and all of the other students where in shock as they whispered about him.

"Level 3? I barely got to level 2…"

"I didn't even get Level 2. Just what kind of monster is he?"

"Ahem. You will each be assigned a senior who will guide you to your dorms and show you around our esteemed campus."

With the flick of the wrist, the Headmaster summoned 12 seniors and assigned them accordingly.

The senior with Arthur was a tall, older, teenage girl with long brunette hair. She was wearing a uniform with a purple emblem symbolizing the Academy color. She looked kind and had a warm smile on her face, reminding Arthur of his mom when he was still a baby.

"Hello, Arthur. My name is Grace Stamm and I will be helping you get familiar with this place!"

"Thank you for your help Senior Grace," Arthur said respectfully.

"You can drop the formalities, just call me Grace!"

"Alright then, Grace. Where will be heading first?"

"First I will show you to your dorm, where you can get a few hours of rest before I show you the remaining. Then you will go to get your class awakening!"

Hmm.. Looks like I will finally get to find out my class.

But a deeper thought crossed his mind.

What about the error..?
