Awakened The Strongest Talent

Chapter 4

Jobe moved forward, his speed was quite fast and impressive, while Draken just stood there calmly, awaiting the big guy.

When Jobe got in striking distance, he punched his fist forward, heading straight to Draken's face. Draken stared at the fist heading towards him, the speed of the punch looked extremely slow to Draken, giving him a chance to swirl his body sideways, dodging the punch completely.

The whole eyes in the cafeteria widened in shock after witnessing the so-called trash dodge the punch of a Platinum 2 ranked student with ease, and also with his two hands crossed behind him.

Jobe quickly retrieved his outstretched hand in anger, swinging out another set of punch towards Draken's head. Reacting swiftly, Draken ducked low, making the punch go over him.

With Draken now ducking low, he clenched his fist and sent out a punch of his own towards Jobe's right side.

BAM!

The fist slammed heavily into Jobe's right side, wild pain etched over his face. Jobe could actually feel his ribs being shattering to many pieces.

“Such insane strength!' Jobe screamed internally, leaping a few meters backwards to regain composure.

“That felt good,” Draken mused, glancing at his fist with contempt after successfully harming the ribs of his oppressor.

Two of Matthew's minions launched forward and headed straight to Draken. One of the students halted his steps, joined his two palms together, and throwing it forward, releasing a round green energy beam.

The beam shot out from the palm of his hands and charged towards Draken. When the beam was only a few inches away from Draken. Draken swerved sideways, making the beam miss him by a hair's length.

After successfully dodging the beam, Draken could see yet another fist heading towards his face with great speed. “The beam was only used as a distraction, yeah?” Draken mused, leaping a few inches backwards and making the student's punch nothing but a flap in thin air.

The student quickly closed the gap immediately, punching out his second fist. Draken stood there as he watched the fist heading towards his head slowly as usual.

When the fist was a few inches away from his face, the speed doubled and moved twice as fast.

“He must have used his technique to increase his speed,” Draken mused, moving his head out of the way, and the punch missed him by a hair length.

Seizing the opportunity, Draken sent out a series of punch of his own before the student could retrieve his outstretched hand. The student would have loved to block it, but the punch were just too fast for him.

POW! POW! POW!

The punch connected neatly to his right and left cheeks, lifting him off the floor, and sending him crashing on a table before passing out instantly.

GASP!

A collective gasp filled the cafeteria as Draken, the boy they all deem as trash, knocked out a Platinum 2 rank student like it was nothing at all. Draken has always been the trash who was only able to awaken a useless Talent and because of that, everyone bullied him.

But what everyone was witnessing right now seemed unreal to them. Did he get overpowered overnight?

That was the collective thoughts of the students as they watched the trash take down someone greater with ease.

"Hey, why are you two just standing there?!" Matthew shouted at his two minions who were currently dazed after watching Draken knock out someone stronger than them. "Don't let him scare you! He is trash and will always be trash!"

The words of Matthew snapped the two students out of their dazes and they came to realize that they were only fighting trash. 

“He is finally using his technique,” Draken mused, his eyes glued on Jobe as his body and height began to grow greatly. The hair on his head began to fall off and his height was now 8-foot tall, with long vicious claws growing out.

"Jobe transformed?!" A female student exclaimed in shock after watching the student grow in size and features.

"I thought they were only fighting the trash, why then did he need to transform?" Another student questioned.

"Does that kid look like the trash we all know? He looks different and his strength has now improved greatly," another student chimed in.

"Yeah, I thought I was the only one who noticed how handsome he looked," a female student said,biting her lower lip.

"I can't believe you are crushing on trash, Sandra!" The female student's boyfriend voiced out.

Draken stood there, examining Jobe and his new size. “So his technique is a transformation technique. He is able to transform his body into a full beast or half beast, and once he transforms, his strength, speed, and agility will also increase,” Draken mused as a slight smirk appeared on his face.

If this system does work like a video game, then once he defeats a stronger opponent like Jobe, he will surely gain rewards and level ups. Draken couldn't wait to find out what happens when he levels up. Would he gain new technique and ability? 

“On top of that, I could also steal the bastard's talent once I defeat him,” Draken pondered as the mighty Jobe charged forward, causing the whole cafeteria to shake with every step he took.

Closing the gap, Jobe slashed his vicious claws towards Draken's neck. The increase in Jobe's speed was evident to Draken, so he performed a backflip, making Jobe slash nothing but air. 

“If that claw hits me, my body would be divided into two.” Draken mused, dodging another slash from the vicious claws. 

Jobe joined his two giant fists together, lifted it above his head, and swung down an hammer-like strike towards Draken's head.

“Lightning speed, activate!” Draken called out internally. 

[LIGHTNING SPEED, ACTIVATED -5 TALENT POINTS]

Once the ability was activated, Draken felt his whole body lighter than a feather, and his whole surrounding seemed to have frozen on the spot like a statue including Jobe. 

Of course, Draken found the whole thing strange and foreign, but he knew he only had limited time.

Leaping into the air and in the same level as Jobe, Draken sent out a punch towards his giant frozen head.

BAM!

The brute force behind the punch hurled Jobe into the air and sent him flying backwards, crashing on the table and also passing out instantly. His once huge gigantic body began to shrink back to its normal size.

Every single student in the cafeteria couldn't believe their eyes anymore. The whole thing now looks like a movie being played out right in front of them.

“It must have been me placin all my points into my strength, plus using the Lightning speed that made that single punch this powerful. If Jobe didn't transform, then that punch would have ended him on the spot,” Draken pondered, glancing at his oppressors that were out cold on the floor.

"Don't get cocky now, Trash! I don't know what ever drug you used, or whose Talent core you tapped into that made you this strong, but you are still nothing to me!" Matthew, whose broken fist was now healed up a bit, joined his two palms together and black energy could be seen gathering around it.

[WIPE OUT THE LAST OPPRESSOR, STEAL HIS TALENT, AND GAIN MORE REWARDS]

“Very well then, let's see how this talent drain works,” Draken mused as he watched Matthew's black energy beam head towards him.
