Chapter 157 Checking something
The air freshly hit my face as we enjoyed the ride of the aerial ship. The clouds were clear and we can see how the sun rose from the east. Its gentle warmth gives off a calming energy putting my tired mind at ease. Although the view was fine and welcoming some of my friends were quite dissatisfied with something.
"I can't imagine we got this for ourselves!" Niko said fully appreciating the warm morning light.
"You mean a barely maintained flying ship? What if this thing suddenly crashes!"
"Don't be like that Matilda our professors are here we should keep our mouths controlled" Agnes told her seeing her voice being too high.
"I don't really know Agnes but look at the place, it's all rusty and some of the floor has holes! I don't think Matilda's words are exaggerated" Arabella said while evading a hole in the floor she was supposed to step.
Although the sky was insanely beautiful I can't help but agree with them.
The fabric on the sail is almost torn, the engine at the side of the ship is shaking and the floor is covered with holes. Though it's still flying somehow and our room is a bit decent not as old as the outside.
[Creator I believe this ship is almost identical to the haunted ones we saw in the books]
"You mean the flying shipwreck?"
[Yes I think this legend is real!]
"Really?"
[Yes I have been analyzing information about it and it seems there is a pattern and connection towards its recorded sightings]
"Well, we will check that later once we have some free time"
[Sure!]
I continue to have my thoughts until I remember something.

"Sigh my stat points used to be so many, after the fight with the monastery most of the essence I got from the dead was used to boost me"
[That's because you refuse to use them for your stats]
"I already learned my lesson with Professor Adolfo, a higher stat is useless when facing an opponent who has the same level of power as you. I should first focus on mastering all the skills I have before upgrading them"
[Then how about upgrading them instead]
"Then where is the understanding there, I need to completely grasp my power not just upgrade it"
[Oh, so no more shortcuts?]
"Are you seriously asking me that? Since when have I ever taken a shortcut?"
I might have created a system to make everything easier but it was never a means as a shortcut. It's a helper I made to assist me towards the plan I had in mind.
"Hey Apollo what are you thinking about!"
I heard someone say to me until I realized it was Mckenzie.
"What? What is it"
As my focus began to shift to them I finally saw that all of them were looking at me.
"Um, did I perhaps miss something?" I asked feeling confused at their gaze.
"Apollo, can you do something for us?" Alicia suddenly said though her face had this mischievous glint.
"That's a bit suspicious," I thought to myself as she approached me. Confused I leaned towards her as she finally got close.
"Oh," I exclaim hearing her suggestion.
"Of course, I can"
I walked forward and was glad they thought of such a thing.
"Jeremiah open the inventory "
[Affirmative waiting for the Creator's command]
"Give me all the available blueprints about aerial ships and also records of our available materials"
[I will!
Initiating deep search...
Classifying available drafts.....
Analyzing inventory items...
Search complete!
Here are the compiled records of the Creator's inquiry]
I closed my eyes and saw all the blueprints Jeremiah had planned for me.
"Let's see....alright let's do this"
My thoughts began to weave a pattern to which the blueprints obey. With the plan in mind, the ground beneath me began to glow.
"Jeremiah activate the skill Automatic Machinery"
As long as I identify something as a weapon my skill will obey my call.
[Affirmative!
Initiating skill activation]
The inventory is open and the blueprint is ready, the skilled automatic machinery took over and the ship was bathed in light.
While my focus remained towards the thing I was doing my friends began to feel excited seeing how the entire deck changed.
"What's going on?"
Professor Alejo said as soon as a sudden light covered the chair he was sitting on.
"What it this!" Professor Timothy exclaimed while his blade was in his hand.

Inside the air base on the Eastern Academy, a group of students and professors stood waiting for the arrival of the ships from the Aster Academy. As they did so they bore quite a lot of ideas from the arriving students, especially towards the high aristocrats that enrolled there.
"I wonder how haughty those students from the capital"
"Arrix the Aster academy is comprised of students from different people from the continent not just the capital"
"Ah, was it? I thought they only came from the capital just like how our academy only allows students in the eastern kingdoms"
"Alright you two shut it, I can already see something flying towards us"
A senior student said making the two other students with him quiet.
"It should be the students of the High class, right? I was told they left first"
"Could be"
However, as the ship gets closer the more confused they get.
"Isn't the ship a bit fast?"
"Yeah it should be slowing down now"
Like what they notice instead of slowing down the ship storm towards the main campus.
"That didn't go as we expected"
The youngest among them said though the professors panicked as they witnessed what happened.
They all flew and chased the aerial ship making the rest of the students surprised.
"Now I wonder what's going on right now"
The president of the student council said as she saw how the ship moved in circles while their professors followed.
