Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

Chapter 118 Survival Class: Cold Weather Version (Part 2)



While everyone was going up the flying ship, Daimon couldn’t resist the curiosity and used the truth seeker eyes along with sixth sense, to inspect some parts of the structure, as he expected he found a crap ton of magic formations all over the thing.

He more or less recognized some of them, he turned to see Liz and mentally sighed.

“Weight reduction, optical camouflage, material solidification, aerodynamic, lessen wind resistance, fireproof, enhanced surface… this girl must have worked really hard on this and she even did it when I wasn’t looking for it to be a surprise”.

Once everyone was on board a transparent dome covered the deck leaving the sails out to fulfill their purpose.

Boris was the one which received the operation manual of the ship and seeing that Liz didn’t show the slightest interest in piloting he walked towards the captain’s cabin not without saying.

“Brats the dome reduces the impact caused by the pressure of the wind, but you will still feel it so I suggest you all sitting down until we reach a stable pace, there is a compartment inside of the ship, but for this class you’ll have to stay on the deck”.

“In any case miss Elizabeth and instructor Richard will stay with you, but don’t cause them troubles… that is for you Calvin”.

Not even a few seconds passed when the roof of the storage opened, the ship trembled a bit and then everyone saw the turbines illuminating in a dim blue light before the ship started floating upwards.

Following Boris advice, everyone sat down and just enjoyed the first trip of the many they will be taking part of in the future, before they left the storage which worked as a hangar, the optical camouflage formation activated and the ship became “invisible” for the those which were not travelling on it.

This place was isolated from the rest of the campus and since the ship was registered under Aura’s authority, only she could see it in the detection formations which covered the academy.

The ship started advancing forward as it gained height, Richard and Liz remained stood up, the sight of the academy and the city of Latiz from above was quite something else.

For the students it was different though, the ship was quite stable but there were some slight turbulences from time to time as it gained altitude, the more they went upwards the colder and stronger got the breezes of wind.

The dome protected them from the snow wince it was a “solid” thing, but the weather was getting colder, and once Boris dived into the clouds the cold reached a point where everyone but Liz and Richard, needed a coat or a jacket.

As he previously expected, Calvin was the one which was suffering more, he felt a shiver due to the cold, so he took out a coat from his storage ring and wrapped himself on it leaving only his face visible.

Michael laughed his ass at Calvin’s comical appearance.

“For someone who always brags, you are acting like a wuss Calvin”.

“Try to say that without using mana to warm up your body, you shrimp bastard”, said Calvin looking at Michael which had a dim orange brightness around his body.

Leslie saw Loren’s body trembling and she smiled.

“Come with us, Leslie will be a heater for us sisters… although Aisha doesn’t seem to need it”.

Yvonne waved her hand at Loren, Leslie was using the same spell as Michael, so she stayed close to her, Liliana on the other hand was indifferent towards the cold weather, so there was a free space which was offered to Loren.

Loren nodded and she sat next to Leslie, a decision she immediately liked, unlike the others Daimon was the epitome of relax right now, he was laying down on the deck with Aisha using his right shoulder as a pillow both of them sharing their body warm.

Aliya kept her distance from her students, although she couldn’t use high ranked spells, using fire mana to keep her body warm didn’t affect her.

Calvin sighed he didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry, his idea was to do something similar to what Daimon was doing, with Loren of course, but cold hit him like a truck so right now he couldn’t think on something else.

“Not fair while my ass is freezing, Daimon is living the dream, also that damn old man is doing this on purpose”, he thought seeing that they weren’t leaving the clouded area.

Liz soon got bored of seeing the limitless sky, so while Richard remained on guard in case a flying magic beast casually intercepted them, she also laid down next to Daimon as feigned to be trembling due to coldness.

“Warm me up Daimon ♥”, she whispered while she hugged him.

The rest of the travel was quite smooth, the flying ship used a similar system to the flying carriage so after entering the coordinates of their destination, the only thing Boris had to do was supervise that they didn’t distance themselves from their path and correct the direction if needed.

After nearly two hours of flying the ship stopped moving, Boris left the captain’s cabin and he was amused by the different situations in which his students were in, but right now it wasn’t the time for that.

As the ship descended, everyone stood up and gathered around Boris and Richard.

Daimon tried to see if he could recognize where they were, on past years Aura took him to a coupe of places but they weren’t that far from the Revy clan, also thanks to the magic formations he couldn’t really calculate how fast they were moving.

Richard judged their reactions and he smirked.

“I’m pretty sure none of you have been here, this place extends for thousands of kilometers, the frozen fields of Halia, in my whole time as an instructor no one has cleared this training”.

“The mission is to find some certain things that were hid here back when I was younger, in less than 72 hours of course, also you will have to reach the peak of the biggest mountain, because we will pick you up there”.

“Just so you know this will be the easiest among the many scenarios I will bring you to, the idea is for me to see what are your current survival capabilities”.

“Flying is not allowed of course… also I won’t interfere unless you are about to die so be careful”, he added while stealing a couple of glances at Liz.

“If you don’t have any questions chose the weapon you need and then give me your rings, so that the class can start”.

Narasha’s eyes glowed.

“Daimon, I want to go out to play”.

Daimon smiled, from the very beginning he was going to use Disaster or more accurately Gram, because of two reasons, first because Narasha wanted to and second because he was supposed to not have a storage item, so the guns were out of question since the bullets will be “limited”.

Richard frowned his brows, Liz forged a special sheath which changed its shape along with the form used and also covered the aura radiated by Narasha, so only Gram’s hilt was visible right now, but that was enough to make Richard feel threatened since his affinity is darkness.

Surprisingly the only ones using broadswords were Daimon and Aisha, Calvin had a Warhammer, Yvonne used a bow, Leslie had a fan with metal spikes, Liliana chose a rapier, Michael a dagger and lastly Loren who used a Morningstar.

Calvin nodded seeing Loren’s weapon of chose, “We are made for each other after all”, he thought.

As they handed their rings to Aliya, Yvonne suddenly remembered the mission assigned to them by Richard.

“We are supposed to bring some things back from the tundra, but without our rings how are we supposed to carry them?”.

Richard nodded, “You are right, here take this”, he said as he handed everyone a bag.

“I nearly forgot to mention it, but each one of you must retrieve something, because this is both a team and individual test, anything else you want to say?”.

Daimon and the others shook their heads, the ship landed and they got off the deck, Boris purposely left them at the entrance of the tundra, so they will have to walk all the way towards the mountain.

The ship floated again and the concealment formation activated thus making it disappear from the eyes of others.

Unlike back at the academy, the snowing in this place was quite heavier and due to the difference in the horary zone, it was earlier here.

Daimon looked at their surroundings, there were a lot of rock formations about one kilometer away from them, so it was important to decide the next course of action.

“Liliana, Yvonne can you two feel how strong will it snow in the next hours?”.

“Mm?”, they both nodded nodded, she closed her eyes and focused her attention on the sky, the snow eagle clan has a high affinity with ice and Yvonne has an excellent pair of eyes, so while one felt how strong was the ice mana of the clouds above them, the other saw the flow of the mana.

They discussed between each other and then reached a conclusion.

“It’s going to be snowing like this for about four hours, then it should go down”.

Calvin stretched his body feeling all stiff due to the cold, luckily Richard didn’t take his coat away, so at the very least he could manage to not freeze.

“Class rep, let’s find a place to stay while this stupid weather gets a bit better, we don’t have mana recovery potions, so it’s better if we travel in a moment where we don’t need to use that much mana to protect our bodies”.

Daimon nodded, he pointed at one of the small rock formations and gave his orders.

“We’ll make a temporal camp in that place”.

From the sky Richard and Aliya were evaluating their decisions.

“Not bad, others would have tried to advance as much as they could before finding a place to rest, but to fight one must think first… and believe me you will need to fight later”, thought Richard.
