Chapter 122 Explanatory Ch: The awesome Link. (Skippable)

In the Great Freya Academy, there are barely around 100 second-year students left, and all of them are now in the same class, because of the smaller number of students, there\'s no need for different classes now.

At the beginning of the first year, a thousand students had been enrolled in the academy, but by the first half of the second year, only around a hundred of them were left.

Most of the students were kicked out because of their low potential and a few of them died last year. Only the talent potential of B rank or above is still surviving until now. And by the end of the third year, likely, only ten or twenty students will graduate and the rest will also be kicked out too

This is the cruel and competitive environment of the greatest academy of the human empire.

There are many other second-rate or lower-level battle academies out there in the various cities and districts of the vast human empire, but only the great Freya Academy has the highest criteria for graduation.

The graduation criteria for most battle academies is to become a C ranked by the end of the third year and finally graduate by completing an assigned mission.

Even most elite battle academies only require the students to reach B rank to graduate successfully.

But the great Freya academy is different, it asks the student to reach at least rank A in three years to graduate successfully. This is a cruel method but it\'s effective.

Most of the A-rankers or above rank individuals present today, have once been students of the Great Freya Academy.

You may wonder, why the academy bothers taking lower potential individuals then, if they have to kick them out in the end either way why not just take the most talented ones and be done with it?

The answer to this is very simple, the academy needs funds for its management. They have to give salaries to S-rankers and many A-rankers. Moreover, they need to maintain the top-notch facilities they provide to the students.

Although the government is providing most of the funds for the academy, it\'s still not enough. Not to mention the academy\'s premises are equipped with the most cutting-edge technology in the human empire, they also have one of the SS-rankers \'Raji Croft\' sitting here in person, as the principal of this academy too.

(Most of the money is spent by the government to satisfy Raji and make her stay in the academy, if she had mood swings one day and she left the academy, the academy would be in great trouble.)

Although the academy scouting staff is always on the lookout for talented children, it is still extremely rare for them to find children with A-rank potential, and finding a kid with S-rank or above-level talent is like finding a gem in the vast ocean.

Such gems rarely even appear once or twice every few years and are highly sought after.

The scouting staff of the great Freya Academy is spread all over the human empire and tries their best to rope in, as many talented children as possible, but very few awaken the potential of A-rank or above each year, thus it\'s like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Barely a hundred people awaken A-rank potential every year in the vast human empire, and most of these children are from poor backgrounds, thus the academy has to give them free scholarships.

(The human empire has a population of around 10 billion, yet the appearance of A-rankers is so low, by this, you can imagine the rarity of talents like Link who have the potential to go beyond the SS-rank. Someone like him rarely appears in a thousand years.)

(Aside from the 100 seats reserved for poor people\'s children, those who awaken A-rank or above level potential can get insanely high amounts of scholarship money if they enter the Freya academy.)

These scholarships are the main reason why the parents of this world say to their children, "If you awakened A-rank potential, your parents would be proud of you." Just awakening A-rank potential can turn your life from rock bottom to the top of the world.

The lack of talented individuals has always been a great concern for the government. It\'s like they have the best facilities available, but there\'s no one to use them.

Because of this lack of talent nearly 800 seats are left empty every year and the Freya academy staff have to fill these empty seats with the untalented children of the rich people.

Rich people, who provide enough funds to the academy can get their children a seat in the academy in the hope of their children getting the best study environment, but most of the time these children are arrogant and have less potential.

And since there are empty seats anyway, the academy has no other choice, but to reluctantly accept the huge amounts of money from these rich people, in exchange for a guaranteed seat for their children.

Although these Rich people also know that their children don\'t have much talent and can\'t graduate or survive in the academy for more than one year, still, providing your untalented kid with the best place to study, every parent would want to do that much for their kid.

(To get their kid the best things they can, parents go through various difficulties, this has been the norm of the world. Of course, there are exceptions like the parents of Qi Meng. It\'s a blessing if you have loving parents…)

(Explaining the awesomeness of our boy Link)

All the above facts point out, how much of a unique talent Link is.

Unlike normal people who generally become awakeners around the age of 15 and work hard to reach rank E from G-, Link was already born as an E-ranked awakened, \'Ashtel Rex\' had to seal his mana to prevent him from harming himself with his insane inborn strength.

In the evaluation section of Link\'s panel, it\'s written, that \'Even heavens are jealous of him\', this sentence is not a mere bluff, and it has actual meaning to it.

At the birth of Link, the heavens wept tears of jealousy and the sky rained for three months straight, major floods appeared and the earthquakes raged havoc on the ordinary folks, due to the anger of the heavens.

If not for Ashtel Rex to stabilize the situation and deal with all these things personally, the whole human empire would have been flooded at the birth of Link. (Historical records say this same phenomenon happened at the birth of King Allen von Reinhart two thousand years ago.)

Ashtel had to work hard and scatter those rain clouds personally. He even had to stabilize the ground by punching it and stopping the raging earthquakes. It may seem ridiculous but these are genuine facts. (Tell me whose reference is this?)

(Explaining the appraisal methods of this world.)

It is indeed true that every awakener can see their status panel in this world, and thus it\'s very easy to find what your maximum potential is, but this is also true that other people can\'t see your status panel. (This is a law of this world don\'t ask me why, it is like asking \'Why does the apple fall not up? Bro, it\'s gravity! A law of the world! It\'s just as simple as that.)

Since others can\'t see the status panel, it\'s very easy for people to lie and say that their potential is A-rank or above, etc. This used to cause major problems when finding the real talented people from the fake ones.

But then came the rise of the \'Appraisal Artifacts\'. These artifacts are capable of \'appraisal\' and talent potential detection. Nowadays these artifacts are so common that you can go to any random convenience store and buy the cheapest one of them easily at a very low cost.

Even the cheapest \'Appraisal\' artifact is capable of appraising items of A-rank or below.

They can even be used to find the talent ranks of the individuals easily, you just have to ask that awakener to put a little bit of his mana in the appraisal artifact and that\'s it. The result will be their maximum potential rank.

Every scout of the academy carries an appraisal artifact capable of appraising talents up to S-rank. Only For SS-rank talent or item appraisal, would you have to go to specific locations like the Freya Academy\'s talent inquiry office or the talent or item appraisal, would you have to go to specific locations like the Freya Academy\'s talent inquiry office or the reception hall of various major guilds.

Currently, there\'s no way of \'Appraising\' the maximum talent potential of people like Link, who have \'SSS\' level talents. Also, there\'s no known artifact or item in the world with the rank of \'SSS\', most people even consider the existence of Rank \'SSS\' a lie and think that only \'SS\' rank is the highest an individual can reach.

This is the reason why Link is said to have SS-rank talent by the people there\'s no way to accurately measure his real talent.

Except for a few people, no one knows that Link is a talent beyond the ranks of SS. Even though the world only knows him as an SS-rank talent he is still rare and worthy of praise in itself.

(Ashtel Rex hid the information and didn\'t let anyone know about Link\'s true potential. It was to protect Link from the prying eyes of the world.)

Author\'s Notes.

I have been thinking of writing a chapter to explain the various major details of the world. This chapter is to further enhance the \'World-Building\' aspect of this novel.

Question of the day.

Did you guys like this \'explanatory\' chapter?

1.Yes (It\'s good to explain the workings and the structural blocks of the world.)

2.No (Personally, I am not the type to read things in detail, I only look for the story…) (Wait are you even a true reader if you do that?)

3.Other (I don\'t know anything, I am still trying to comprehend Link\'s awesomeness…)

By the way, don\'t forget to use those power stones and also leave a review if you like the story. Comment your opinion about the chapter. Your support is my motivation.
