Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 255 Who is the motherfucker?
Chapter 255 Who is the motherfucker?
“Does everyone have a house?” Arthur said.
“The Official Mages, yes. As for the students, they all share dorms.”
It made sense. The school would use all of its resources and land to give all the students a house. Only those who proved themselves could earn one, like Arthur.𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄e𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺
“You can use the day to explore the school, and tomorrow Laura will help you out with things. Remember, you can only enter the first four peaks. As for the fifth, it is where the school leader is, and the sixth peak is a place not even him can enter.” Willard said as he left.
A place that not even a rank 2 mage could enter. Arthur was curious about the sixth peak now, but there was not anything he could do to go there.
“Each peak has a strange barrier blocking people from lower levels. I can’t even enter the fifth peak, as I need the rank 2 to access it. Does it mean the sixth peak is only for the legendary rank 3 mages?”
The thought of it made Arthur’s body shiver. That was an existence world apart from him, but he knew one day his level would reach that point!
He went inside his house to have a look. It was not luxurious, and it was in fact a house made of wood with little space.
Arthur knew some people would hate such a simple place, but he loved it!
“This is small but probably way bigger than the dorms all the students have. Also, it is not like the school can keep building houses for everyone forever,”
“And this place has a decent space for a garden!”
What Arthur enjoyed about his house was not the house itself, but the location. It was way distant from the houses of the other Official Mages, and he could also build some formations in case anyone wanted to break in.
It was peaceful, and there was lots of space for him to plant some things, which ignited his passion for alchemy once again!
A lot of things had happened so fast that he did not have the time to study alchemy, but now the peaceful time has finally arrived.
The path to reach the rank 2 and beyond was long. Arthur was prepared to train for more than a decade before reaching such a level, and that was actually fast among the mages!
But one thing he knew for certain was that alchemy played a huge role. Rare and well-prepared potions could boost their efficiency in training, diminishing the time it took for one to reach the next level!
Now that Arthur would stay in the same place for some time, he wanted to take the time and get better at alchemy. And there was also the tree he got inside the dimensional realm!
“Let me see this!”
Arthur opened up the magical pouch he had got from Rolf, but when he saw the tree, sadness took over his body.
The tree was still there, which was a good thing as it meant it could be planted again, but the golden fruits were on the ground, rotten.
It was impossible to bring the entire tree without damaging the fruits, which was unfortunate.
“Well, it can still be cultivated, so let’s think it brightly.”
He wanted to plant that tree as fast as he could to not damage it like what happened to the fruits, but Arthur doubted something like that would happen, and he could not put the tree at everyone’s sight!
The other herbs he wished to plant for his alchemy could be outside, as no one would try to fetch them. But that tree was something even rank 3 mages would want, so Arthur had to find a perfect location to plant it!
“Should I just put a lot of formations to protect the tree? Maybe make it invisible? That way the Official Mages will not find it, but the leader of the school probably would if he visited my house, so that is a problem.”
Arthur was confident in hiding the tree from the rank 1 Official Mages with no problems, but for rank 2 mages it was a completely different story.
“Maybe plant it inside the sixth peak? Willard told me no one can enter that place, and I am not sure if the requirements are truly being a rank 3 mage or something else!”
The idea was insane, but it could work if Arthur found more information about the sixth peak. He assumed what one needed to enter was the power of a rank 3 mage, just like the fifth peak required the power of a level 2 mage.
But that would not make sense! All the other peaks had some barrier blocking their passage, but when Arthur passed through them, he analyzed such formations, and they weren’t special at all!
It looked like a formation set by the school leader itself on the fifth floor.
What did that mean? The ancestors of the school did not place those formations, so it was not true that one needed the rank 3 status to reach the sixth peak!
“But this still leads me to nothing! The school leader has access to all the five peaks, which meant he read all the books and diaries about this school, and even after doing that he had not found the way to enter the sixth peak.”
The school was rather mysterious in Arthur’s eyes. All the ancestors who built the school weren’t around anymore. Arthur had a strong guess they had left the planet and locked the sixth peak before doing so.
Arthur did not know why, but it surely had something incredible behind it!

“I am finally here!” Elena thought as she got out of her mount, returning it to its bestial pouch.
She was greeted by someone in the first peak who showed her the dorm and explained a lot of things about the school.
There was no test she had to take, as they were already tested before being invited to join there. Elena listened to all of it carefully, not missing a single thing about the school’s affairs.
After the man explained most of the things and left, Elena was all alone at the first peak. A few male students passed near her and whispered to each other, “look at the new student. Isn’t she gorgeous? Who do you think will get her first?”
“Maybe Roger? All the ladies go crazy over him.”
“You’re right, but I wished it were me!”
These were disgusting sentences, but Elena could do nothing about it without power.
But it was at that moment Arthur appeared, as he knew Elena would soon be at the first peak, so he came to look and heard everything those students said.
“Wished it was you what?”
“Huh?”
The two students looked up to gaze at Arthur, but they did not recognize him, but they recognized the token he had, meaning he was one of the few Official Mages of the school.
“Why is someone of his caliber here during the middle of the night?”
“I am so sorry. We did not mean to say that.”
They both kowtowed a few times and then left, hearing Arthur’s words, “I will remember you two.”
When Elena saw Arthur handling those two idiots with such mastery, she yelled in happiness, “Arthur? I’m sorry I did not warn you back in the inn, but aren’t you supposed to be there?”
“Well, I also left during the night without warning you, so we are both assholes.”
Elena burst into laugher, recovering the happiness she had before hearing those nasty words from these students.
“Are you going back to your dorm, or would you like to eat something? I heard the restaurants here never close.”
“That would be great!”
They both looked for some restaurants at the first peak. Each peak had everything the students needed. It was their way of making them focus on their training and not having to leave the school for any necessity.
Arthur walked around acting as if he knew the place, but in fact he did not. The only reason he found a decent restaurant was because he used his senses to look for the most crowded one, as it could only mean two things. It was the best or the cheapest.
“I am so sorry, there aren’t any tables left, so you two better wait outside and- “
A lady responsible for the guests said, but stopped mid-sentence when she realized who she was talking to. An Official Mage!
The token Arthur had on his chest represented his authority inside the school, and the lady could not stop shaking after realizing the words she had spoken.
“I am so sorry! We have a VIP room that is being used by some students from higher circles. We will kick them out now and let you two inside!”
She quickly left and went to the second floor of the restaurant where the VIP tables were. There, Roger was sitting with some of his friends. All of them had the power of a fifth circle mage!
“What? Are you kicking me out? Who is the motherfucker who wants my room?” Roger yelled angrily, and left the second floor without hearing the lady’s words, aiming to confront Arthur at the door.
