Antihero In the Hero Academy: I Can Connect the Past Heroes-Chapter 31: The Gifts I Was Searching

Atlas seemed to have won the goddess’s curiosity.

At his words, Nyx straightened herself in her seat and then asked curiously, "How did you realise so quickly what I gave you?"

Atlas smiled and said, "I have a spell, I am aware of everything you have given me. I am aware of the Nyx’s Shadow class, Night’s Flow, Goddess’s Fury, Night’s Step, Superview and Starry Night abilities, my lady."

"Very well. To tell you the truth, even though you’re a mage, I saw that you can use aura and I wondered how far you could go with it. Still, I gave you a talent for magic, didn’t I? I don’t think it’s that serious," Nyx replied.

Atlas scratched his head with his hand when he heard these words and then replied, "My lady, there are very few people who can surpass me in magic, you can be sure of that."

The great goddess seemed to be holding herself back from laughing after these words. Seriously, Atlas could see that the woman in front of him was holding her hand over her mouth.

"There’s a reason for your ego, after all, so I won’t say anything, little one," Nyx said suddenly.

"What can I say, my lady, I am under your leadership," Atlas replied with a shrug.

Nyx finally got up from where she had been standing and began to walk down the stairs in a polite and incredibly graceful manner.

Atlas took a few steps back out of respect and waited where he was. When Nyx appeared in front of him, he could do nothing but stare at the beautiful goddess.

"I don’t know how you got this ability... Amazingly, you can have this ability that even most of the gods and goddesses barely have. Even though you are a human. I think I did a good thing in choosing you." Nyx said suddenly and then asked, "And what is it that you want from me?"

Atlas gently took a few more steps back and put as much distance between them as he could so as not to disrespect the goddess. Nyx seemed annoyed by this, but seemed to choose to wait.

"The ability that brought me here clearly states that I can receive help and teachings from heroes. You are someone who exists in sacred books and stories, so you must count as a hero," Atlas replied.

"I would like to learn from you, my lady, if possible, or at least if you have any suggestions or guidance for me, please do not withhold them from me."

Nyx nodded and said, "Alright. Since you’ve come this far, maybe I can help you." and then started walking towards Atlas.

Before Atlas realised what was happening, Nyx grabbed him tightly and then kissed him on the forehead. At that moment, Atlas’ head began to spin and his eyes began to darken again.

The moment Nyx let go of him, he fell to the ground and then began to lose consciousness in front of the perfect night vision. At that moment, Atlas heard Nyx again:

"I hope we can meet again. You should come to see me when you get stronger."

After hearing these words, his consciousness completely shut down and the next time he opened his eyes again, he realised that he was back in the real world.

When Atlas managed to regain consciousness, he sat up from where he was lying and then began to drink the water directly from the jug on the table. Strangely, he was extremely thirsty.

Immediately afterwards, he sat back on the bed and then looked up at the system window in front of him, smiling as Nyx’s voice and words echoed in his mind, and then said the following words:

"Haha...I thought I was just going to get a little teaching..."

[Goddess’s Faith(Legendary+++++/Active) item won].

[Goddess’s Faith(Legendary+++++/Active)

The Goddess gives you this stone as an apology. When you run out of mana, which is the basis of your magic power, when you are caught in the middle of the worst time of the war, you must break this stone! Then you will have more mana in your body than you want to endure!

300% magic power increase when the user uses the item (for 1 minute)

Permanently 50% mana regeneration speed when the user uses the item and the item ceases to be used. (1 time only)]

Atlas smiled as he read the item’s specifications, then bowed his head and said, "Thank you, my lady, I am honoured." and placed the stone in his inventory.

At that moment, another window opened in front of him:

[{Night’s Favourite} title has been won!] fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

[Night’s Favourite

The person who has this title, you, will now be welcomed by the Churches of the Night. Thousands of [Churches of the Night] in the world will now approach you with %10000 closeness. You will look like a prophet in their eyes!]

Atlas couldn’t help smiling after the successive system windows. The Church of the Night, one of the most important powers in the world, had suddenly become his friend. The value of this gift Nyx had given him was truly priceless.

Atlas would have traded almost every single skill and item he had for this title.

The Church of Night could save his life. Each of the churches would play a huge role in exposing the worshipers of Satan and angels.

Luck was on Atlas’ side, and that was a wonderful thing.

With that, Atlas changed his clothes. He wanted to get some sleep and recharge his batteries for tomorrow. After all, he had classes to attend. He was a first-year student after all, and not even Cordelia herself could change that.

He had to attend this academy from the age of 15 to 20. Unless he was stupid enough to fail.

So he slipped into his pyjamas, drank some more water and got back into bed, sleeping after some time. Yet he had no idea what was going on in the room where the main professors of the academy were gathered.
