Chapter 176 - Voss and Frost

The fact that the American Hunter Academy only had six classes was no longer anything strange to those who knew about the academy.

The teacher replacement system here was also quite interesting. When a homeroom teacher died for some reason or lost the ability to teach, that position would be replaced. Quitting was impossible because the homeroom teachers were the core members of the academy.

There was no such thing as coming to work when you felt like it and quitting when you didn't... The rule could be changed if an S-rank hunter voluntarily asked to become a homeroom teacher, but such a situation had never happened before.

"Everyone should already know more or less about the academy only having six classes. So now, I will introduce the six homeroom teachers who will lead everyone through this school year."

After a whole bunch of chaos, everything finally returned to normal. The teachers inside the building were now ready to meet the new students.

"First, please welcome the homeroom teacher of Class I, Mr. Voss!"

An elegant middle-aged gentleman slowly stepped forward. Each of his steps was so leisurely and light that they made almost no sound.

His long, pure white hair reached the back of his neck and swayed slightly along with his long robe, which was white and completely wrinkle-free. His bangs were swept to one side, covering his left eye and revealing only a cold silver-gray eye with an unusually small pupil.

Because he always shaved clean and always dyed his hair, it was hard to tell from his appearance that he was already forty-seven years old.

At his waist was a sword so thin that at first glance it looked no different from a long silver line, neatly placed inside its sheath like a precious item rather than a weapon.

Voss adjusted his sleeve, his eyes sweeping around before slightly frowning when he noticed a speck of dust accidentally floating toward him.

Before the speck of dust could even touch his robe, he decisively brushed it away with his hand. His expression remained calm, but the decisive movement was enough to make people stare wide-eyed at his excessive cleanliness.

His pure white outfit was almost blinding, seemingly inspired by the clothing of European nobles from several centuries ago.

Anyway, no one had ever made any rules about what hunters had to wear, so there was nothing strange about him dressing like this.

The moment he placed one hand on the hilt of his sword, he gave off a sharp aura like a sword tip that could pierce through anything, making everyone who looked at him unable to take their eyes off him.

He said nothing and only elegantly waved at everyone, then took the initiative to stand in a corner and give the center back to Zero.

"Voss is a veteran A-rank hunter with decades of combat experience. His ability is Piercing Acceleration. Simply put, his sword thrusts are extremely fast and precise. If an enemy lets their guard down even for a moment, they'll have several holes in their body."

Zero only gave a brief introduction. As for the details, Voss's ability allowed him to enhance his weapon, increasing its damage and penetration. On top of that, the speed of his sword thrusts was much faster than his slashes, so in battle, he only stabbed.

As soon as the introduction ended, a round of applause rang out from the plaza. Even though no one knew who would become their homeroom teacher in the future, it was better to clap and make a good impression first.

"Next, please welcome the homeroom teacher of Class II, Miss Frost!"

"Quite a few people have given her the nickname 'Ice Queen,' and I feel that nickname is extremely accurate."

A cold and elegant woman slowly stepped forward, like a unique eternal snow flower blooming atop a mountain covered in endless white snow.

Her white hair was neatly tied up behind her, without a single stray strand, making her clear blue eyes stand out even more, yet they were so cold that anyone facing her felt as if they were looking straight into a frozen lake.

She wore a long white dress with the bearing of a queen. Every step she took was graceful and precise, and her noble aura made the entire plaza fall silent just to look at her.

When she stopped, she suddenly winked. That powerful wink directly took down countless hearts of the young men and women in front of her.

Although her outfit had even bigger problems than Nyx's when it came to combat, it wasn't a big deal. At worst, if she encountered a battle that was too difficult, she could just tear off the unnecessary parts and fight comfortably.

"She is very beautiful, isn't she?"

Zero grinned and asked the students. Going from an older middle-aged man to such a great beauty would definitely make everyone much more excited.

Immediately, a thunderous round of applause was given to Frost. Just from the applause, it was obvious that the students were much more enthusiastic about her than Voss.

As an elegant gentleman, Voss naturally wouldn't want to compete for applause with a junior like Frost.

"That's enough. If you keep clapping, you won't be able to hear me. And don't misunderstand just because she's beautiful. She's actually thirty-two years old, so she's also been single for many years. But…"

These words weren't completely meaningless either. Zero wanted the students to focus on their studies instead of having a group of people lining up to confess to their homeroom teacher every day.

It's just that before he could finish, he suddenly felt a chill around his legs. Frost had already turned toward him.

Frost narrowed her eyes, the veins on her forehead bulging. If Zero dared to say anything more, he shouldn't blame her for fighting him with everything she had.

"Ahem, I'm getting off topic. Let me introduce her ability. She's an A-rank hunter with a very interesting ability called Cream Master."

The moment they heard the name of this ability, even those who didn't know her could feel the sweetness coming from Frost.

As for those who already knew, they naturally immediately remembered the Frost ice cream chain. Frost was the owner of this ice cream brand.

"Just as the name suggests, her ability is closely related to ice cream. She can create and control ice cream to restrain, attack, defend… In short, it's very versatile, and it also smells strongly of vanilla."
