“I must be dreaming, but that's Jayden Tiger, right?” Wu asked with glowing eyes. His fellow students were just as baffled to see the Altered celebrity in person, but without a doubt, this was the famous ‘White Tiger’. Snow frantically started searching his pockets for something to give to one of his idols, eventually pulling out a carrot while also dropping a few on the floor. It was amazing itself how one could hide so many carrots on one’s body in the first place. With the carrot in hand, he was running over to Jayden’s side.“Would you mind signing it for me?” Snow asked with some slight embarrassment. “It’s the only thing I have on me right now.”In some situations, this might have been embarrassing but the others were just jealous that they didn’t have anything that Jayden could sign right now.“Just what strings did the AFA pull to get the 48th strongest AFC to teach us a lesson?” Sty wondered out loud. It was normal for students to be star struck when meeting someone from th

A lot of what Jayden said was unheard by the students. After all, more than of half of them had already been knocked out by him. Even Sty had been hit by a wind blast at some point, banging his head into one of the walls.Leaving the only students able to listen being Apollo and Gary, but with Apollo being on the other side of the room it was unlikely he heard anything and as for Gary, he was so focused on the person ahead of him, that he was drowning out the words coming from his mouth. ‘I scratched him… which means I can hit him as well, which means I can win this fight!’ Gary thought, as he burst off the ground from his position, swinging his arms at Jayden. Although the attacks were fast, Jayden was able to see them relatively easily, and he could parry away the strikes without touching Gary’s hand. Right now, Gary’s strength was unable to be felt because a single hit wasn't landing on Jayden. ‘I only have a few skills, Claw Drain, Last Stand, and Howling Force, but in this sit

In the past when things like a tough decision came up, Gary would have confined in Tom for advice. Since he was on his own, the teenager was wondering what his best choice would. Although there was no description on the skills, the skill names themselves gave him some information. Lethal Pounce had to be a type of movement skill. In the fight with Jayden, it might have allowed him to cover the distance between the two of them. It had been tricky getting through the wind attack, but in the end the Werewolf had managed to do it without the need for a skill. Of course, the skill could have some other effects, but there was no way to know that without choosing it.Then there was the Berserker Mode, which promised a lot more synergy with his current stats. From what Gary knew Berserkers were usually type that focused on their rage, gaining pure power in favor of defense. The more wounds they took, the more power they could exhibit, so in his case, the Werewolf assumed that less Health wou

Tom had been working for NIRV just as long as Gary had been at the AFA. When the two of them had split up that day and left school, Tom had resumed his prior work as a special case. His grades were more than good enough and although he was younger than what they usually got, as the son of two of their prominent researchers, NIRV had agreed to make an exception and sign him up for their program that was aimed at students who had just graduated, offering him a nice career. Of course, as soon as Tom had heard that there were some NIRV employees that worked at AFA he did his best to be a part of it. He couldn't imagine the look on Gary’s face as he would appear in a white lab robe, and he was quite with the result today. In a way, their meeting showed that although they were both taking different paths there could still be chances for them to be involved in each other’s lives, they just needed to get out of the current rut they were in. ‘It's nice to see you again, and from what I learn

There was a fine line between nervous and excited and, as Gary stood there in the white room, he didn’t know how he felt. A way to grow stronger, what type of beast would come out this time. Yet at the same time, he knew how dangerous this was, these creatures were trying to outright kill them, and there was the warning from Tom. Before the assessment was to start, Gary looked up where the glass screen was being seen. Now he knew the type of people that were keeping an eye on him. “Hey Gary.” Wu said, as he was already punching the air warming up. “You know we have to impress the people as well to stay in the lessons, you heard them right. So give me and Snow a chance.”“Give us a chance, what are you talking about?” Snow angrily complained.Wu never acted like this before, even after the last assessment. Yes, he knew Gary was good, but the way they were talking to him made it sound like he was on another level. Of course, this was Wu’s evaluation after seeing him take on the debut
