My Hermes System Chapter 28
Advertisement
Van could not help but breathe deeply as he finally somewhat understood what was written on the board. He could recognize some of the words, he needed to think for a few seconds for each word, but still, this was a drastic change from what he could do a week ago.
"It is time for all of you to learn about your Status Window and what Status you should choose depending on your System type"
The instructor continued writing on the board. The instructor drew a chart, similar to the Status Window that one would see if one summons their System's Window.
Van nodded numerous times, an excited expression was plastered on his face as he quickly recognized the words that the instructor was writing.
"If you look at your Status Window, there would be 4 variables there-- Strength, Agility, Vitality, and Intelligence", the instructor continued his lecture, "Intelligence increases the effectiveness of your Skills and also increases your SP. But, it doesn't mean that if you have a Mage-type System, it will be the only Status you need, no"
The instructor drew a stickman on the board, "You need to be nimble enough to avoid attacks while you are using your skills, and maybe even sometimes take an attack head-on. You will not be able to defend yourself if you only put all of your Status Points in Intelligence"
"It goes for Enhancer-type Systems as well", the instructor let out a sigh as he continued to write on the board, "You need to be able to sustain your skills during a match, and for that, you would need to allot INT."
As the instructor continued on with his explanations on how the Status works in harmony with each other, Van squinted his eyes as he called on for his own Status Window.

Based on what the instructor was saying, the value of your attributes is determined by numbers… so why exactly did his Agility have question marks as its value?
Following what the instructor said, Van curiously tried to add a point to his Agility attribute. However, a window suddenly popped up in front of him as he did so.
[Agility is Locked]
Is what it said as it did not allow Van to add any points to it. '...Weird', Van slightly tilted his head in confusion. Van was going to explore his System more, but he chose to do it later as he wanted to focus on what the instructor was saying.
"How is it, Van!?", as soon as the classes ended, Harvey excitedly approached Van, "Are you able to read everything the instructor wrote?"
Harvey has been asking this question every day since the start of Beatrice's lessons.
"Hm", Van replied with a nod as he released a satisfied sigh.
"Nice!", Harvey raised his fists in victory as he heard Van's reply, "Let's go and celebrate it once more by eating at Van's house!"
"You guys go ahead", Beatrice said as she took a piece of paper from her bag, "I need to submit my System type for the extracurricular classes"
"Ah!", Harvey clapped his hands, "Isn't the deadline for submission tomorrow? I already submitted mine on the first day", Harvey laughed as he crossed his arms.
"...What?", Van could not help but be confused with what the two were talking about, "There was something like that?"
"What do you mean?", Beatrice raised her voice, "They mentioned that during the entrance ceremony!"
"D...Did they?", Van widened his eyes in shock. Due to everything that's happened in the past few days, it glossed over his mind. The freshmen were required to submit their System type so that the Academy can put them in their specific extracurricular classes.

"Since we're both Enhancers…", Harvey said as he placed his hand over Van's shoulder, "Then we will be in the same class again. Kakakaka!", Harvey laughed as he turned his head upwards.
"This…", hearing Harvey's words, Van could not help but furrow his eyebrows.
'Is my System… really an Enhancer type?', Van placed his hand on his chin. Sure, he was able to move extremely fast, but he also had skills that Enhancer types should not have.
"Here"
Van's thoughts were interrupted as Beatrice handed him a pen and a piece of paper, "I had two application forms in case I lose one", she said, "You can fill it up now and we can go together to submit it"
As Van grabbed the application form and pen, his eyebrows furrowed even further.
"You can do it, Van!", Harvey said as he clapped his hand, "Write!"
Van took a deep breath as he placed the pen on top of the form, his hands were shaking uncontrollably as he started writing the first letters of his name on it.
"Y...you can do it, Van!", Beatrice pumped her hands as she watched Van write on the paper. She could not help but feel excited that her teachings have borne fruit.
And although it was a bit messy, he successfully wrote his name.
"Yes!", Harvey almost shed a tear as he looked at Van's beautiful penmanship, "Now on to the System type."
Van nodded resolutely towards Beatrice and Harvey. He then once again let out a deep breath as he started writing on the paper again.
"Wait… Van!", Harvey leaned his head closer, his tone containing a hint of panic, "Enhancer doesn't start with the letter 'U'!", he said.
Beatrice was also going to say something, but then she quickly stopped as she saw the next letter that Van wrote-- the letter 'N'.
"Could… it be?", Beatrice could not help but whisper as she stared at Van.
Van had made his choice. He wasn't an Enhancer type, there was no use in hiding that from his friends and from the Academy as they would find out about it sooner or later anyway. And being in the wrong extracurricular class might hinder his growth.
And so, with all those thoughts, Van reflected his choice on the paper.
