"START", I shouted out loud.
Training session initiated. Monsters would keep spawning until STOP.
As soon as I started, a mechanical notification came. After that, monsters spawned. The numbers appear to be around thirty but the strength of these monsters appears to be very high.
If I don''t fight with them with my strength, then I would only lose.
With so many monsters and future monsters to fight against, my skill levels would definitely increase, maybe even my EXP. If I could increase my rank using Nexus, then I don''t need to worry about anything.
Let''s rumble.
---
I was wrong.
There was no EXP gained from killing these monsters. These are not real monsters but virtual projections. I can kill them but I don''t gain any EXP from them but my skills are getting sharper than ever before.
It was true that only when you fight against someone threatening the skills progress faster, rather than just by training in a hall.
Though I know that fighting with these projected monsters doesn''t threaten my life, I have to fight with my full strength to survive as these monsters act as if they were real monsters. So they always go for the kill, unlike trainers who trained me or like Ang in the academy.
Though the training is efficient, it isn''t perfect.
The strikes Inded on these monsters seemed low. It is as if the room was calcting the strikes based on my rank rather than my INT value or skill level.
I matter not. It was not as if I got EXP anyway. Whether they die or not, there are always the same number of monsters every time. When one dies, another takes its ce. It looks like the number would be recorded.
There are no rewards for total kills anyway. It was training, so I didn''t need to think about whether the monsters die or not. All I had to do was fight them without thinking about anything else.
Though I would lose and there would be permanent records of such failures recorded in the Nexus, living long is more important than some fame in the future.
I mean if I can''t improve my skills faster, I won''tst longer.
Instead of my record saying that I failed multiple times, it would say that I died young because I am weak.
I prefer to be recorded as a constant failure than die young in the history books. It sounds so much better both for me and the future readers.
Ah, now I need to sleep. There is a theory ss in the morning. Though as a Tier-5 ranker, I can live without sleep for a few nights, it''s good to refresh my body and mind regrly.
Using anything for too long with rest and maintenance would lead to early retirement.
From now on, I should visit Nexus at night when there are sses. On other days, I should allocate some time for dungeons and the rest for training in the Nexus.

Three weeks went by before I knew it. In these three weeks, there were a lot of improvements, but they were confined to my skills.

Shadow Bolt Volley increased from level 15 to level 18.
Both Evade and Dodge increased from level 16 to level 17.
Fusion and Split too increased their levels from level 16 to level 17.
With Inari still present, Sexual stamina increased by a level, reaching level 6.
The only issue with skill levels was that there wasn''t an improvement in Scent Recognition level. I didn''t spend that much time in the dungeon and there weren''t that many students that came into contact with me.
Physical Resistance increased from level 16 to level 19.
Non-Attribute Magic Resistance which has been dormant for a long time improved from level 5 to level 7.
Space Resistance increased by a level and reached level 5.
Fire resistance increased by two levels reaching level 8, while water resistance only improved by a single level reaching level 7.
Wind resistance improved by three levels, reaching level 6. The lightning resistance on the other hand only improved by a single level reaching level 4.
Staff Arts after a long time progressed from Advanced level 1 to level 2.
Movement Arts increased from Intermediate Level 2 to Level 4.
Handbat Arts moved up from Basic level 9 to Intermediate level 1.
Everything went well. Though I couldn''t develop as much as I thought, these developments are very good. Everyone knows that improving a skill from level 2 to level 3 is more difficult than improving a skill from level 1 to 2.
At first, I wanted to improve scent recognition but I saw that it was not improving as I thought, so I found a new solution for the problems in the family.
With that, I believe I can mark every traitor in the family.
It''s time to start weeding.
