The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 212: End of my fourth year (3)

So keeping someone's talent and achievements to themselves would be good too in a way.

Spreading the news of their achievements might bring fame but also bring danger to them, dangers that shouldn't have anything to do with them in the first place.

As time passed, I was getting more and more confident about the choice that I made by keeping most of my talents a secret.

At first, I felt a bit of guilt for keeping the most important parts of my life a secret from my parents but time proved to me that I made the right choice.

I am alive because my enemies underestimated me. If they had thought that I was a true threat to them, then their plans and implementation would have changed. I may be already dead if they thought so and did so.

There was a saying that one has to have trump cards to win a battle.

If every move of yours was known to the enemy, then they would only battle you once he had everything to counter your moves and that means you wouldn't have any superiority in the battle. No, you would not be on equal terms, unless you have something that your enemy has no idea about and that something should be able to overwhelm your enemy.

This is why a trump card is required. Everyone should have one to keep themselves at least alive in the event that they can't win the battle.

I have a few, which I brought from the Cosmic Market, which would make the others not understand the principle behind that and fail to stop me from escaping in the event I can't defeat my enemies and have to disappear from the battlefield.

The best escape method was using a teleportation device, which could teleport us to a random place or a specified place depending on what type of device we were using.

So many high-rankers would seal the space around them to stop their enemies from using teleportation to escape. Using teleportation was very common, so everyone would try to have a way to efficiently seal the space but that's not always possible.

A dungeon wouldn't have real monsters but fake ones. They are created directly from magic and the reason why they sprout out after an interval of time. Different dungeons have different time intervals depending on the type, rank of the monsters and also where the dungeon is present.

If the magic power in the area is sufficient, then the dungeons will quickly sprout new monsters, which would increase the rate at which the people would get EXP and increase their ranks.

Of course, there are certain dangers if the dungeons are present in a place with a high level of magic power. The monsters would sprout faster after dying and that would make the people who entered the dungeon fall easily.

No matter how powerful one is, one can't fight a battle for a long time without proper rest and food.

This is why not all dungeons were conquered or claimed ownership over. One can say that a high-ranker can clear a low-level dungeon but dungeons do have some restrictions.

Not every dungeon would allow people to enter the dungeon as they wish. Only the ones who has satisfied the conditions can enter. Of course, there are no minimum conditions, but rather the maximum conditions.

It means a Tier-0 can enter any dungeon but a Tier-9 can't.

The year-end exam ended similar to how it ended in the past three years. I came out on the top, with Malia following behind me. Man, she was really pissed than before.

Next year it would be our graduation. So I think that she wanted to show off for at least a year before we graduate but seems she has no chance of doing that.

Anyway, now that the exams are done, I get to go home.
