After the bell went off, everyone headed to their classes to finish the remaining lessons for the day. Erix and his friends equally went to their class after the bell sounded. As usual, Rin went to the ability class, while Erix, Shota, and Nicole, left for the weapon class. "Alright everyone, we will begin again with our practice. But this time, it will be a little different. I have seen some students here with their experience, and I will say, I'm truly impressed. You guys appear a lot better than any other first-years I taught in the past. Usually, we would have needed to practice for more days before doing this, but seeing how fast you guys are advancing, I think it's best we do it now because any further delay would be a total waste of time." Leo said after everyone had settled in the class. "In this practice, you will need to fight at random. What I mean is once you step out, any person that wishes to battle with you will come out as well and challenge you. It's random and no
"Nicole, do you want to hang out with us?" Erix asked as they walked through the hallway."Are you sure? I don't want to bother you.""You are already bothering us, so come if you want," Shota said with a sulky face. Erix gave a 'please don't start' look at him and that instant, he shut up."You're not, I wouldn't ask if that's the case.""Fair enough," she said with a smile. "Then if you don't mind, I will disturb you.""Sure." Erix had a reason for asking her to join them. He wants to create a solid relationship between them, so Nicole wouldn't have any intent on betraying them in the nearest future. They then went to pick up Rin, and as the latter saw Nicole with them, he glanced at Shota to see his reaction, but the latter only shrugged and pointed at Erix. "Nice to meet you, again," Rin said with a smile. Looking at Nicole's face, his face slightly turned red. "Likewise. I'm Erix's friend now and also Shota maybe, so don't act formal with me." Nicole said with a smile, obnoxio
Erix already heard the howling sound of the wolves before the system gave him that quest. Initially, he was a little anxious when he heard the howls of the wolves approaching them at a fast pace, but after he saw the quest, his anxiety vanished.This was for two justifications.First, the system probably couldn't bestow him a mission where he would lose his life along the line, though he wasn't sure, he just had the notion.Second, quests with confidential rewards were way cooler. The reward might possibly be something that will help him get stronger, just like the reward he got after finalizing the ironic quest. And since he had fewer ways of getting stronger, he decided to never waste any quest, be it small or large.Again, his power drain skill would be very helpful since the place was full of big trees.Looking at the message once more, he chuckled in travesty.'Maybe I was wrong, the system didn't care much about me. It looks like it only telling me to protect the lady without e
"Alright, that's by the way. Let's continue with what we're here for, our training," Erix said, before standing on his feet."Uhmm, wait a sec. That gauntlet you used when those wolves attacked, where did you get it from? I mean, you clearly came here empty-handed, so how come?""Spatial bracelet," Erix said, lifting his wrist to show the wristband tied around his wrist. "Wow, that's cool. Here I'm thinking the wristwear was for fancy. Where did you get that from?" Nicole was curious. She only heard of spatial rings, not wristbands. But even at that, Erix was an orphan and wouldn't afford the cost of spatial equipment, so she was curious to know how he got it.Erix contemplated whether to tell her the truth or not, but later decided to tell her what he made up in his mind."Before my parents died, they gave it to me." What he said wasn't entirely a lie. The system was from the necklace he received from his parents, so the wristwear was indirectly from them."Okay, I was just wonderi
Not long after, they got back to the academy. They walked until they got in front of the dorm, and just when Erix was about to bid his fare ware and enter the boy's dorm, he heard a voice calling from behind. And it was none other than Kylee."Hey cheater, do you care if we have a fair duel? Your friends are in support of it too," Kylee said while approaching Erix.Hearing that, he quickly turned around to see who it was even though he already guessed it was Kylee. Surprisingly, he saw Shota and Rin with Kylee too. But something was different about them. The look on their faces wasn't all that cheerful. "We would never be in support of this, Erix. Don't accept this motherfucking duel. You already beat him once and that should be enough." Shota said in a tone of anger as soon as he came to stand near Erix."He already beat you once in the weapon class, so scram," Rin said to Kylee's face, equally infuriated. Kylee turned red in anger when he heard that. Several veins popped out on
In an elegant and well-furnished suite at the third-year dormitory, a curly brown-haired guy was comfortably postured on his grand chair. His demeanor was awfully odd from the usual and the look on his face wasn't one of a happy guy.Kneeling in his front was a grey-haired boy begging and pleading uncontrollably. His eyes were all red. It was apparent that he had begged for way too long and was about to cry."So you mean you were beaten up by a chunk of first-year garbage? You weren't only beaten up, but were left barely alive too!" The curly brown-haired guy said in a harsh tone."I'm very sorry, Quito. I don't know how it happened. He seems to be something different from what he appears to be. I'm not sure, but he seems stronger than usâŚ" The grey-haired boy was saying before Quito slammed his hand on the table beside him, breaking it into pieces."That's bullshit! You're just giving excuses for losing to a common first-year. One more excuse from you again, you will regret ever comi
Shota gaped at the ring area in shock. Erix was no longer on the ground, on the contrary, Kylee was. The latter was lying tirelessly on the floor, motionless. Salvador equally followed Shota's line of sight only for him to behold what was going on in the ring. The table had taken a turn and Kylee was now the one lying on the ground, unconscious. "Erix, are you alright?" Shota tugged Salvador out of his way and ran to Erix. "Let's take you to the clinic now, you're hurt," Shota said the moment he arrived at the ring. "Bother not, I'm whole. Just a few bruises here and there but I will be fine. After all, I have my super regenerative ability," Erix reassured him with a smile. Rin and Nicole also left for the ring area. Even they were confused about how the whole thing played out. Erix hadn't done anything special to be able to knock out Kylee. It mustn't have been that effortless punch he threw at Kylee's face that did the job. Nevertheless, all of these questions would wait bec
"C'mon Erix, you can always confide in us. Don't hesitate to tell us whatever that's bothering you," Shota said when he saw Erix's hesitancy."Okay. It's about blood. I need blood right now." Erix said, not looking up at their face.Hearing that, Shota and Rin realized why Erix felt uneasy to talk about it at first. He must have been shy to ask of something as delicate as blood, but they were still happy that he chose to come to them for help rather than craving it elsewhere, or even going for a blood quest on his own."That's okay, man. You shouldn't act all tensed up over this small issue. We made it clear earlier that you can notify us whenever you need blood, so this is no big deal." Rin smiled before he stood up and walked to Erix."Here, take my blood," Rin said as he stretched out his arm to Erix. "Please don't do it gently, it tickles." Rin giggled at the thought of the tingling sensation he would soon experience.'Shouldn't I be the one doing this?' Shota thought when he saw
