It took the rest of the week and finally Ethan was able to somewhat achieve proficiency with his water bullet. Thanks to merging repeatedly with the slime his water bullet was now faster and cost less mana than before.
The entire execution was a lot cleaner. It was far from perfect like how the slime cast it, but he was slowly getting there. It was just that he felt as if he was missing something crucial. A important link that connects everything.
On the plus side, the academy entrance test was finally here. Ethan had managed to gather more information about the academy system in this world and learned that only the low-tier and the mid-tier academies had students automatically allotted to them.
To enter any high-tier academy one had to take a proper entrance exam or pay an exorbitant amount of gold coins. The latter method was obviously frowned upon and not many high-tier academies resorted to that.
