This all happened in an instant, which left Bones no time to react. It was the last thing he had ever expected to happen. As soon as Erix saw Bones' unconscious body, he couldn't help but laugh like a madman. Though he wasn't sure, he had an impression that this event was the happiest event of his life. However, he felt even happier when he thought of how cruel he would get to punish him before eventually killing him as per the system's quest. Now that Bones was unconscious he needed to hurry and get the job done before he woke but the question was, how and where to begin. From his guess, the boy would be out for about an hour or even more, so he needed to hurry up before that time. The system said he should kill Bones most brutally ever, meaning that the boy needed to be awake to experience the torture himself. The punishment wouldn't be termed as torture if he was unconscious, so he needed to have the boy awake, but the question was, how? He has no binding rope or anything li
Once classes ended, Shota and Rin took their time. Erix wouldn't suddenly disappear after just a few minutes, after all, right? And even if he did, he would surely contact them first. Shota appeared to have loosened up a bit and gone softer on Rin. He decided to try to be friends with Rin since he had done nothing but be nice to them. Also, he seemed to genuinely care for Erix, which went extremely well with Shota. During lunch today, they settled their differences and eventually became friends. But even after that, he still didn't have a silver lining of trust in him. Well, not only him but everyone else, even himself. They decided to go slowly to Erix's classroom. Though what they heard in the hallway wasn't that reassuring. People were talking about a low-level that managed to scare the shit out of four high-level students, so it wasn't hard to know what happened. But since there was no physical description of the low level, the boys just thought it wasn't Erix. There w
Seeing the once hovering balls now speeding toward him, his survival instinct kicked in. He knew he needed to survive and that would only be possible if he made a move. The sharp earth balls began closing in on him at a fast pace and the very last second before they could hit him, Erix ducked back and avoided the balls. Since the balls were numerous, he didn't let his guard down after bypassing the first phase instead, he regained his composure and continued dodging.The balls were fast but not so fast that Erix couldn't keep up with them. Thanks to his improved agility though, he was able to keep up with the speed of the balls even though he got hit from time to time. Unfortunately for Erix, the earth balls changed attack mode and began closing in on him in all directions. "Let's see if you can avoid my babies now." The big guy muttered with a sinister smile. Not only that, but he also began to juggle his earth balls in such a way that they magnetically hit Erix's back after he
Meanwhile, Rin quickly ran towards the big guy. Though he wouldn't kill him, that doesn't mean he wouldn't teach him a lesson. For Rin, people like him deserved to die. Even though he didn't know the feeling of being bullied, he imagined how painful and depressing it was. Bullying was something Rin would never want to experience in life. Even though his parents were only peasants that ran into Norxus clan to find refuge, he had a peaceful and comfortable life and got whatever he wanted. After all, he is the wisest lad in his clan. And surpasses most was the elites in his clan in matters concerning the brain. He invented many things that were quite useful to his clan. In his clan, he was known as a versatile elite. Well, despite all of his fame, none of it was heard outside the clan. This was how the clan worked. After becoming Norxus clan occupant, you indirectly pushed all your fame and achievements under the clan leader. The leader gets to decide whatever happens in your
The moment Shota heard that he understood what Rin was talking about. The retrieval team was probably on their way to retrieve the dead body of the student there. But that wasn't the case right now. It was the fact that Rin felt nothing upon contact with Erix's body. His body felt jolts of electricity when he touched Erix's body earlier, so how come Rin didn't have a similar reaction? However, curious to know if he'll feel the electricity again, he slowly patted Erix's body. Strangely enough, he felt nothing. The electricity he felt was gone and nothing could be felt again. 'What the fuck? But I felt something earlier!' Shota screamed in his head. His quietness was beginning to become weird for Rin, so he asked. "Hey, Shota, are you alright? Is something wrong? You haven't said or done anything, after all, I just told you." Rin said, a little puzzled. Shota was acting really weird. Shota didn't reply to Rin's words instantly. He held Erix's body for like a minute more befo
Now it was 10:45, and the boys had finally safely made it to the dorm. They tried hard to get in unnoticed. Erix's clothes were drenched in blood, so it would give them away if people saw them carrying him with blood-soggy clothes. After they got back to their dorm room, Rin suggested they take Erix to the clinic, but Shota quickly declined, telling him it wasn't needed since Erix had completely healed up. Rin was a bit taken aback when he heard that. He couldn't believe Shota's words, so decided to confirm for himself. Tearing open Erix's clothing, he was met with the clear skin under it. His skin looked restored and free of bruises. "B-But how come?" Rin stuttered in disbelief. He found it unbelievable. Erix's clothing was previously drenched in blood, meaning he must have lost a tremendous amount of it from injuries, but now, there weren't even any wounds to show for that. Erix was supposed to have bruises after so much blood left his body, but that wasn't the case. Looking a
Very early the next morning, Erix began to flicker his eyes open. 'I'm alive, how?' He muttered with half-closed eyes. He felt his heart cease beating after something heavy and rocky hit him in the back, so how come he was alive? 'I should be dead.' For a second there, he was unable to see anything when he first opened his eyes.The room was pitch black. But after his eye muscles relaxed, his night perception activated. He was surprised when he realized where he was. He was back in the dorm room. "Wait, what?!" He almost screamed and ran out of his bed. He clearly felt his heart crushed when that object hit his back. "What later happened in the forest last night?" He was becoming frustrated at the thought of what might have happened. 'Wait, did they follow me?' His best guess was that his roommates followed him but that was just impossible. He made sure no one followed him. 'But the big guy followed you.' His mind kept reminding him each time he thought of how impossible it
While Shota and Rin were busy preparing themselves for school, Erix decided to check out his system. He got about three skills after his re-evolving, so he wanted to check them out. [Blood Slash: (Lvl 1)] [Eye of sin: (Lvl 1)] Erix stood there speechless as he carefully read everything in front of his eyes. 'So indeed I'm a demon vampire now.' He thought. Like most people, Erix only heard demons/vampires, but not in the combined state. He didn't even know what it was, and if it was a real race. It could also just be something from the system, or it might as well not even exist. Well, he has already slowly started to accept the fact that he is what he is. Not like the system would respect his choice if he wishes to reject it, so he is better off accepting it since he would even get stronger along the way. If it would make Erix stronger, then he was in for it. With the changes he saw in his stats and skills, he is already liking what he is seeing. The first thing he noticed
