Kayden wanted to head out on his own because he felt confident in his ability to move swiftly along the desert, while remaining undetected by the beasts roaming that particular area. He was hoping that he would be able to move to and fro from the town to the area where he would be hunting the beasts stated on the map.

However, after being spotted by a random beast, it wasn't long until a whole horde, comprising of over thirty beasts, began giving chase as well. Kayden had no other option than to channel more Mana into his legs, giving them more power to run faster than he usually would. He hoped it was enough, but after a stinger from a Scorpanion had missed him by mere inches, he proceeded to channel more Mana as possible into his legs.

The beasts seemed uninterested in giving up anytime soon. Kayden had been running for quite a long time now, but it seemed like they were not going to let him be. Up ahead, he could see the habitat where the other beasts resided. He had basically ran

    The adventurer was intrigued by this creature that was on the run from so many beasts, so muchh so, that he went out of his way to slay all the beasts in his way just to get to it. Of course, he didn't let the Mana cores they would drop go to waste as he quickly blazed through the burning forest. He was now closer to the other end, when he could finally see the teenager trying to run away.Thanks to his speed, he was able to easily catch up with the teenager. Looking back, Kayden could see the strange man who had helped him getting closer to him. He knew that he wasn't fast enough to outrun the man in the first place, and it wasn't long until he eventually grabbed a hold of the teenager."Hey, what do you think you're doing out here on your own? Don't you know that this place is dangerous? There were numerous beasts in the area, and the forest is on fire! You could've gotten seriously hurt if you weren't carful!" the man lectured the teenager, before dragging him away from the burning

    Dan and Marcus could see where it was they were heading to on the map which was given to them by the Guild Master. However, after travelling for a while across the desert, Dan was beginning to look dull and sluggish as he began dragging his feet along the sand. His expression resembled that of frustration as he began shaking his fists aggressively."I wonder how far Kayden had gone on his own? Hey, do you think that he might already be there?" Marcus asked, turning to face his classmate. "You don't look so good. Dan, what's going on with you?" he asked, concerned. Dan turned his head to look at Marcus, his eyes wide in furry. "Are you mad?! How could you ask me such a question when you already know what's wrong?! We're out here, in the middle of the freaking desert crawling with dangerous beasts everywhere because we're looking for some idiot wanting a death wish!"Marcus took a step back in fright. He had never seen Dan ask so rashly before. Normally, he looked more calm and collect

  • Beast Driven   Dan Must Decide

    Dan And Marcus were on their way to wherever Kayden was, travelling across the purple desert on foot. So far, they hadn't encountered anything that could be considered a threat, still, Marcus seemed to be more nervous than usual. From time to time, he would grab Dan's wrist tightly, forcing him to shake away the tight grip before turning to yell at him.Neither of them knew how long they were walking, but it wasn't like they were getting tired either. They were both strong enough to trek like this for hours. What was bugging them was the fact that they had yet to spot the wolf boy anywhere. At this point, Dan was beginning to think that they teenager perhaps might have been killed and eaten by a random beast. It wasn't until they had made it to the end of the desert, entering a different area, that they could spot beasts. However, there weren't just one of them. A few meters away, they could see over a dozen beasts surrounding a single individual. The individual, in turn, used his ab

    Kayden was unable to move from his current position. Feeling a powerful force keeping him in place, he began to hear a female voice speak to him. Moreover, he recognized who it was that was talking to him. It was that second year student whom he had fought against yesterday. She seemed more than eager to get her revenge, putting him in his current situation. Suddenly, his environment had changed, what was in the hallway of the academy, was quickly replaced by dirt and dense vegetation. Then, a couple students had appeared seemingly out of midair, and in front of them, was the blue-haired female student who glared intently at him.Not saying a single word, she began to channel her energy in her hands, creating two balls of light and shooting them out, causing them to hit Kayden square in the chest. Feeling the effect of her ability, Kayden could tell that it was a lightning ability, however, he wasn't expecting it to be so powerful in the first place. 'I need to do something quickly!

  • Beast Driven   Too Much Pressure

    Zain, who had been struggling to learn Mana control for a while now, was busy learning how to fight with his chosen magical weapon. His daggers required him to get in closer proximity with his opponent to utilize, but it was what suited him the most, since he had a lot of experience in hand-to-hand combat in the first place. His opponent before him was the same student he had fought during the abilities class. The one whose ability tended to shift from one class to another. As these two continued to train, Zain was beginning to see that he was loosing the upper hand, as the latter was quickly catching up to him in terms of skills.'This guy's got talent, but I'll show him that not everything's about being gifted!' Zain shouted in his mind, using his strength to push both of his opponent's hands aside, before delivering a wife slash to the cheat, drawing out blood and pushing him forward. However, the student would refuse to go down just like that, as he had quickly let go of his weap

  • Beast Driven   Punishment

    Dan and Marcus could feel a constant pressure coming off this large man. Seeing the scar on his face, and his muscles bulging through his uniform, it made both of them tremble in fear. Then, their eyes panned towards the students before him. Their bodies we're laced with deeps wounds and bruises. Their faces looked deep purple, perhaps from the number of times they had been punched. "That's it! I'm getting outta here!" Marcus yelled, making a beeline towards the exit, however, the military man had suddenly appeared before him, blocking his only means of exiting the room. Glaring down at the blonde-haired student, he gritted his teeth in anger."I will make sure that all of you will face the consequences for your actions!" he yelled, grabbing Marcus by the throat, before chunking him back into the centre of the room, crashing against the floor. "Today, I will make you my special project, Blondie," he said, stepping forward.That night, neither of them were allowed back to their dorm ro

    Kayden kept on travelling towards wherever on foot. So far, all he could see was the sight of large, purple trees, and shrubs including all other sorts of vegetation. It seemed like the adventurer had gone out of his way to clear this path of beasts as well. Moreover, he wasn't sure if he was even strong enough to go up against a strong basic grade beast. The last three he had encountered in the past-the Dogtooth, the Scorpanion, and the Deranged Viper, were all far stronger than him.Right now, what he was looking for was a way to grow stronger. Currently, his Mana holding capacity was at seventeen thousand. After what he had been through over the last two days, he could feel that his body had gotten stronger from the experience. Still, he didn't feel like it was going to be enough.He needed items such as Mana potions to help increase his Mana holding capacity, and also, he needed this system to give him quests to complete. After travelling for a while, he had eventually made it to

    While Kayden was busy in the simulation, another student was busy with his own work that he didn't even show up for any of the classes today despite knowing the consequences of his action. Shawn was in his underground laboratory running some tests on the strange blue liquid, and a bunch of readings began to show on a large screen in front of him."This is quite interesting," he said, taking a sip of a drink before placing it down on the table. Feeling satisfied with today's results, he decided to head back into the academy and join the other with the other classes. That is, if the instructors decided to pardon him.Shawn was more invested in his research than in the academy. He felt like he could take on whatever punishment awaited him in the Arena, thus he quickly got ready and headed down to the abilities class without showing much fear.The moment he entered, he caught the attention of a few of the instructors, who stopped what they were doing and walked towards him. Of course, for

    A Growing Power

    Fighting against the large centipede-like beast, Kayla was doing her best to evade its attack. Now, standing a good distance away, she activated her ability, covering both her fists in flames as her eyes glowed bright yellow.She rushed forward, delivering a punch to the centre of its body, quickly moving away before it would close its legs, attempting to slash at her skin. Observing the beast, she was waiting for another opportunity to move in to attack. Whenever she would see a chance, she would rush in and deliver a strong blow, her flames burning the area she would strike.Meanwhile, the adventurer had made quick work of the beasts that were rushing towards them. Instead of focusing on Kayla fighting against the large beast, he was more interested in the reason why so many beasts were running towards their direction.'Before these beasts came, there was a loud bang coming from the north. Maybe it's a higher grade beast, or maybe…' he began to run in the direction where the explosi

    "I like it when they run," Marcus said, a wide grin tearing through his face as he gazed upon tbe multitude of people scattering across the open road in search of safety. With screams filled with terror, the street was turned upside down as people ran across the roads, some crashing into glass windows just to get to safety.Seeing all of this unfold right before his eyes, there was a sense of excitement brewing within him.The soul that was taking over his body, seeing everyone running to safety, quickly kicked off against his feet, rushing tiwards tbe nearest person before swiping his hand, killing the man in a single strike.Quickly, he rushed towards the next person, repeating the process as he killed people after people, slowly littering the street with a pile of dead bodies.With all this chaos going on, ut wasn't long until someone had gotten in contact with the local police station, informing them lf the crises currently taking place.

    The Urge To Kill

    Simply on her way through the strange land, searching for someone who could help her leave this strange planet, she was surprised when she stumbled across someone who went by the title of adventurer, a person who hunts down beasts for a living, using their Mana core to either earn money on the global market, or to increase one's own Mana pool by absorbing the energy contained in the Mana core.Standing in front of him, Kayla was wondering what she would say now. She wanted to use this man to help her gain more strength on this planet, and also, she was hoping if he would be her ticket to actually leaving this planet and heading back home."Are you an adventurer?" The man asked, quickly scanning the attire she was wearing. He immediately noticed that her uniform was unlike anything that an adventurer would wear while put in missions. After staring at her clothing for a while, something finally clicked in his mind."Are you a military student?!" He suddenly screamed, his eyes wide in sh

    The Lone Adventurer

    In order to restore her Mana, she would have to practice the total concentration breathing technique, the technique that would enable her body to siphon the natural Mana that was in the air all around her, transporting that Mana into her body for her to utilize her ability.After a few minutes of concentration, Kayla began to notice something strange.'This is weird. Normally, whenever I cultivate my Mana using total concentration breathing, it would take at least a whole hour for my Mana to fully restore. Depending on how injured my body was or the overall quality of Mana I would take in, it would usually take a longer time for my Mana pool to increase.'But, on this strange planet, it's like my mana is increasing at a much faster rate than it would normally back on Earth. I wonder, does this have something to do with the nature of the Mana in the air?'Regardless of what it was, she was glad that she would be able to increase her Mana holding capacity at a much faster rate on this p

    "Hey! What is going on here?!" A voice yelled, as the door leading into the room swung open, and rushing in, were two academy instructors who looked to be in a state of panic after briefly witnessing the scene taking place. Quickly, one of the instructors rushed towards the student still standing, grabbing hold of his arm and twisting his body, sending him crashing towards the floor the next second.Meanwhile, the other instructor rushed towards the student who had collapsed on the floor prior to their entry. Kayden was still in his werewolf form, but the instructor knew the student's identity, since there was only one first year student with a transformation ability."I hope he will be okay," picking up the student, the man rushed out of the room with Kayden slumped over his shoulder, taking him straight to the infermary to receive medical treatment. "How on Earth did this happen? Aren't all students meant to be in class during this time?"Picking up the other student from the floor,

    Stronger First Year

    After a while of rolling non-stop on the floor, Marcus's cries for help had finally come to a halt. Staggering for a while, he eventually managed to regain his stance, standing upright and facing Kayden with a mixed expression on his face.'Why wasn't I able to tell him what was going on?' he asked himself. 'Does it have something to do with this mark?'His gaze then fell upon the red mark on his arm. For a moment, nothing seemed too out of place about it at this point, but then, after looking away, his eyes went wide in shock as he looked back at the mark on his arm.'It changed!' he hadn't noticed it before, but now, looking at it for the second time, he couldn't help but admit that there was something different about the mark, abd remembering the sizzling pain he felt when he tried to tell Kayden the truth, he had a feeling that the change of the marking had something to do with it.'The last mark was meant to keep me from betraying the second years, but this one.

    To Have An AbilityRunning through the hallway, Kayden couldn't help but admit that whatever was going on in the academy was strange. For one, everyone's memories had been changed, and after the system had confirmed that Marcus was the one responsible for it, he still wondered why he would go ahead and do such a thing.And also, how he was even strong enough to do something like that.The yellow scent in the air led him towards the abilities class. Swinging the door open, his eyes immediately locked on to Marcus. Without giving him time to react, he rushed forward, raising his hand to deliver a strike right to his face. Opening his eyes, Marcus was able to see the attack just in time as he moved to the side, avoiding the strike completely."Kayden! Wait! I've done it! I've changed everyone's memories back to normal!" Not knowing why Kayden had suddenly arrived and decided to attack him, Marcus couldn't think of anything else to say. However, now that he thought about it more, Kayden

    Borrowed Power

    One of the skills he had unlocked from completing a quest from not too long ago. It happened during the time of the inter-student competition, when a rogue Shale had crashed into the arena and started attacking everything in sight. The quest stated that he simply had to survive the encounter, and after doing just that, he had unlocked this skill.As easy as that quest was for him to complete, he now had a skill that would allow him track down just where Marcus was.'Still, I wonder, is all of this really his doing? Did he just decide one day that he would turn against us? But why?' his mind then drifted back to the first time he had attended the abilities class. He remembered when he first heard of Marcus's ability. At the time, he wondered why the academy would let someone with such a dangerous ability be a part of the classes.Following the yellow scent, he ran through multiple hallways. The closer he got, the stronger the scent and the yellow mist would get. After a while of runnin
