Chapter 145: Catching up with studies (2)



Having experienced a war first-hand and being mentored by the Gods Of War, Ravan, himself. Rocky now had a grasp on how to view a battlefield and how to strategize, as although not completely conventional in his approach, he found creative solutions to every problem his army was put in, during mock practice sessions.

Within a week, with the help of his photographic memory, Rocky managed to memorize all the major battle formations and how they were historically used to fight major wars and after completing and submitting pending assignments, Rocky managed to easily catch-up to the class, being able to actively engage in strategy discussions with unique insights.

Another thing he noted was that as soon as team activities started in the Battle Formations and Strategies class, he resumed the role of being a group leader right from the get-go albeit his long absence.

Although he was gone while it seemed like the dynamic between him, Buhara and Erin remained the same, as he remained the de-facto group leader, while his two friends relied on him and trusted his judgment when it came to formulating strategies.

While Erin and Buhara had grown a lot in the past few months when Rocky was absent from the university, each having undergone a massive transformation of their own, they still paled in comparison to Rocky himself, who had grown at a pace even faster than them.

Overall, he still remained the most knowledgeable, powerful and charismatic member of the trio, which was why he naturally assumed the role of the group leader.

*************

While Rocky had to do some catching up for the more theoretical non- combat related subjects, he had little to no catching up to do in the combat subjects such as the Practical Combat Class and Swordsmanship Class.

In the Practical Combat Class, Rocky\'s natural technique was already superior to what Professor Maven wished other students to reach by the end of the course, while in the Swordsmanship Class, Rocky was already at the point where he could solo the whole batch.

Hence, in these subjects Rocky only focused on learning better skill moves, increasing battle sharpness and awareness and improving body conditioning, as he was already ready to graduate from these courses without having attended much classes at all.

That left him with the final two courses that needed to be completed in the form of Team Battles and Practical Survival, which both fell under the purview of Professor Liam.

While the courses themselves were not very hard, Rocky had indeed fallen fairly behind his peers in these classes, as while the majority of the class had already cleared floor 9 of the tower, Rocky was only at floor 4.

In the coming weeks, every team was supposed to attempt a floor raid every Sunday, going from floor 10-20 in the second half of university, however, Rocky was lagging majorly behind schedule on this front.

Instead of attending Liam\'s lectures during the week, he was sent to clear tower floors solo as he experienced a new adventure every other day in having to clear some unique quest.

On floor five, Rocky was given the quest to subjugate a pack of Forest Wolves that had been terrorizing nearby villages.

With his academy issued dual swords and basic enchantments made for him by Erin, he ventured fearlessly into the den of wolves alone and swiftly defeated them without so much as a scratch on his body, securing peace for the surrounding communities.

On floor six, Rocky was given the quest to gather a rare medicinal herb called Moonshade Bloom from the shimmering lakeside by local herbalists.

There he had to navigate through thick mist and avoid being bit territorial water serpents as he collected the delicate flowers, using them to fulfill his mission and earn gratitude from the local herbalists.

On floor seven, Rocky was given the quest to defeat a Stone Golem guarding a crystal mine deep within a maze-like canyon.

It had been apparently accidentally unleashed as the miners tried to expand the mining cave recently and it had greatly hindered the mining operations since.

With the knowledge about golems he had obtained from the monster Weakness\'s class and by using his agility and excellent swordsmanship to his advantage, Rocky managed to outmaneuver the golem, finding weak points in its rocky armor and delivering precise strikes to bring it down, as he cleared floor seven with ease.

On floor eight, Rocky was tasked with collecting elemental essence from Fire Sprits living in a volcanic crater.

This was a slightly complicated quest as Rocky had to first understand the process of how to collect elemental fire essence from the locals and then practice it in a controlled environment before undertaking the quest.

The process of extracting elemental essence from spirits needed Rocky to keep them alive as dead spirits, unlike normal monsters, did not have a physical body and dissolved into environmental mana immediately upon death.

By managing to lure the spirits away from their fiery nests and into stone traps, Rocky managed to capture their essence without harming them, completing his quest on floor 8.

Finally, On floor nine, Rocky was given the quest to slay a Giant Venom Spider that had infested an ancient ruin.

Armed with anti-venom potions and a device for trap detection, he located the creature\'s lair and fought through its webbed labyrinth to reach the heart of the ruin, where he delivered a decisive final blow to its head, decapitating it and purging the remains to restore safety to the ruins as he cleared this floor with a perfect evaluation as well.
