Chapter 261: Chapter 206: Stars Falling Before Your Eyes 2.0

Bear Pounce Attack!

Bear Capture Hug!

Bears...

"Mr. Gapar, why are you just watching!"

Roger was being chased around the hall by a Lune Bear, his clothes torn to shreds by bear claws, narrowly escaping fatal attacks several times.

He was gasping for breath, drenched in sweat; when he looked back, he saw the other three were watching the spectacle as if at a play.

Hiss—

He drew a sharp breath, his anger just beginning to surge before he suppressed it. Stay calm, stay calm, these people were not ones he could afford to provoke.

But wasn’t it heartless of them not to come and help?

"Seth instructed us to give the lad some thorough training," Turci said with schadenfreude: "It’s no wonder Seth is angry with this kid focusing on monsters instead of writing his paper every day."

Roger was covered with an invisible magic shield, which Turci had applied to him when he first encountered the Lune Bear.

But this shield only protected his body, leaving his clothes out in front, hence his tattered and pitiful state.

His numerous close shaves with death were also thanks to Hades’ help. As a professor in the field of magic power control, Hades could even manipulate someone’s magic power from a distance, imperceptibly altering their magic release to help Roger perform certain physical actions.

It seemed as though there were three seniors, but in reality, they were all helping.

So what was Gapar doing?

Roger looked back to see the Sword Saint gesturing various hand signals at him, as if directing him?

I can’t understand at all!

He clicked his tongue, taking advantage of the momentary lull as he dodged the Lune Bear’s pounce to cast Invisibility Magic in tandem with Flash Magic—calling it "Flash" was a bit of a misnomer since it was really just a brief burst of high speed—and simultaneously created a noise, hoping to use the sound to draw the Lune Bear away and run far off.

However, the startled Lune Bear was not attracted by the noise and ran straight at Roger with unerring accuracy!

Damn it, footsteps and scent can’t be hidden!

Roger was running in a shambolic state, he certainly knew Silence Magic, but the casting of that spell required time to chant and wasn’t suited for the current circumstances.

If only he could learn an instant casting Silence type magic from the Magic Academy, perhaps there would be one in Sain Dungeon?

So far, the magic coming out from Sain Dungeon almost didn’t need any casting preparation, which was convenient, but not earth-shatteringly extraordinary, because this world already had plenty of magic that could be instantly cast.

After some initial disarray, Roger felt he was starting to get the hang of the Lune Bear’s attack patterns, even boldly attempting to counterattack.

Then he was forced back into a frantic retreat by the unexpected frenzy of wild clawing from his opponent.

This is hopeless, there’s no way to predict a wild beast’s movements.

"Roar! ┗|｀O′|┛"

The Lune Bear suddenly leaped up, its giant shadow instantly enveloping Roger, a distance too close for even Flash to evade.

Just as he was about to be crushed to death by Mount Tai Pressing, finally, his savior arrived.

"Swoosh—"

The familiar flash of a blade, and his vision blurred. When his sight gradually cleared, he found himself tucked under Gapar’s arm, with the Lune Bear slowly falling behind him, making a heavy thud.

Cause of death: Stabbed multiple times, divided into seventeen parts, death by suicide.

Roger heaved a long sigh of relief and thanked Gapar profusely, finding this man to be unexpectedly reassuring.

"Not bad performance there," Turci chuckled, shaking the Image Stone in hand: "We’ll show the recording to Seth later, might just cool him off. Don’t blame us for not helping, it’s all at your mentor’s request."

Roger’s facial muscles twitched, and he began to reflect on his past mistakes of frequently ditching Seth’s assigned tasks.

Despite his scruffy appearance, he was in his thirties, prime age for a Magician.

Although he had already graduated, if he wanted to hold a higher position within the association, he needed to publish academic papers and deal with a myriad of bothersome tasks, which were indeed energy-draining.

He had always wanted to use monsters as the topic for his paper, but it was a no-go, so he had to switch to other topics, which he found uninteresting and was less knowledgeable about, making writing papers akin to groping in the dark.

And he managed to anger Seth.

These days, diligent professors were rare, so he decided to bear gifts and apologize to Seth as soon as possible and diligently work on his paper.

"Clank—"

With the dispersal of the Lune Bear, the Spade key dropped to the ground, emitting a crisp sound.

Gapar picked up the key, observing the dissipating Biomimetic Tear Drop with a complex expression.

The Biomimetic Tear Drop and the Tear-Drop Embryo are only a few words apart, but their manifestations are entirely different.

He had just entertained the small hope that killing the opponent might drop a Tear-Drop Embryo, which was why he had moved before the other professors to steal the kill.

But it turned out he was too optimistic.

"Sigh." Gapar sighed, pocketing the Spade key.

Three keys, now only the red heart key was missing, to continue exploring or return to check what was inside the Spade room?

The company chose to continue exploring, but couldn’t find the monster with the red heart key, no matter how. Strange, where could it be hidden?

Undeterred, they pushed on and eventually realized... there was no way forward.
