Everyone froze in shock the moment that voice resounded in the hall. They all turned towards the direction the voice had come from.The voice sounded just like Leo, but there was something different about him. He sounded very annoyed and pissed.Leo walked towards the podium area with a face full of a frown, ascertaining he was irritated.However, even as everyone else was dreading due to Leo's presence, there was one person that wasn't a bit spooked by the sudden presence and that was the black-haired second-year dude.'Isn't this the best time to attack these little bastards, for they are distracted? After all, Leo is still very far away from where we are,' the black-haired boy thought, grinning mischievously.However, unbeknownst to him, this was by far the biggest mistake of his life. Just as he raised his hand to use his ability secretly, a bolt of sharp yellow lightning raced from the crowd and banged into his body, throwing him off the podium. "I was serious when I said everyon
Erix and the others were now back in their rooms. Today was very tough. The fight with those second-year students wasn't all that easy.Had it been Leo didn't arrive or Orah didn't fire his dark aura attacks, they would have met their demise. Even though they won't die, they will get heavily injured, which may be life-threatening.Today hadn't only been tough but eventful and joyful too. Exam dates had been shifted and the same would be said for people's plans.The rescheduling of the exam date will cause many agendas to change and Erix's plan was among those plans that will change.His plan of surpassing level 10 before journeying to the beast planet would no longer be effective. He might manage to level up once, but the rest of the level-ups leading to his evolution would be done and completed on the beast planet.All he had to do now was try his best to level up at least once while getting stronger at the same time. As usual, the VR game will be there to help him achieve that goal.
Salvador's facial expression twitched a little when he heard those words before eventually turning expressionless. He was confused. He didn't know whether to tell Erix the truth or not. In truth, he wanted to be friends with Erix because he was curious about him. His boldness, strength, and connection weren't something he believed an ordinary level one would be able to have ordinarily.But besides that objective, he had no bad intention of seeking to be friends with Erix. Erix was very different from the people he had met in his life. Despite being a level one, he still stayed optimistic and never let anyone intimidate him without picking a fight, which was very rare. This was the kind of positivity he hadn't seen in a person before and this made Erix unique from all the people he had come across before.'Should I tell him the truth? He said I should be honest. But I don't think he will still accept me if he finds out the truth,' Salvador thought, worried."I see, you're still consid
"Are you surprised? Don't be because I'm about to show you even more surprises if you don't know," Erix said with a menacing smile."This guy is the definition of a monster. He really survived that barrage of attacks. How was that even possible?""When I told you this was only the beginning, you thought I was kidding.""That still doesn't declare him the winner anyway. The tide of a match can turn around when one least expects it.""You're right, that doesn't make him the winner.""This Sinful child is damn strong. I can't believe he managed to survive that ice attack. When I fought that ice boy last week, this was the technique he used to defeat me. I'm surprised someone who wasn't a fire or speed ability user was able to outlive that attack."The spectators were buzzling with comments. Some were for Erix and some were against him.Among the thousand spectators present there, a black-haired girl was quietly seated, keenly observing the fight closely."You really have gotten stronger t
"Really? If that's the case, then the problem is solved," Erix said with a smile.'Why did you say that? Tell me it's not what I think,' Lena said, deep in thought."I don't know what you're thinking, but whatever it's, it's obviously not going to work," Erix replied firmly. "Natasha is the perfect person for this stuff. She's the only person I know with fire ability. I plan to drag out the fight so she's forced to use more fire abilities and eventually use up her mana."'Understand me correctly, I'm not against you fighting Natasha. I just don't want you to get too attached to her,' Lena clarified."Why do I get the feeling you hate Natasha for no reason?" Erix blurted out without mincing words. He couldn't stand it any longer, so decided to just say it.'Come on, stop acting childish. I barely know this girl to have anything against her. I'm just concerned for your safety. I hate the fact that she knows your biggest secret. She exudes something that makes me uncomfortable. She looks
Back at school, Rin had just finished his training and was on his way back to his room.He doesn't need that much time to train because of his mental capacity, coupled with the fact that he dislikes pushing himself beyond his limit.He knew his limit very well. Once he reaches it, he stops whatever he's trying to attain. By doing so, he won't disrupt his seat of understanding.Surprisingly, after today's training, he managed to increase his level to level 6. His progress was extremely fast but it wasn't anything less than what he had expected.He knew his capability, so he wasn't so surprised when all that happened."Shota was right, if I keep growing at this rate, very soon I'll surpass those bastards. Gosh, I can't imagine the look that will be on Quito's face after I beat his arse," Rin said with a grimace.He didn't like Quito in the first place, but his hatred for him ran deep after receiving that torture from him that night.In no time, he was already in front of the dorm's entra
Paul quickly toward Erix with his two mutated hands extended horizontally.After what Erix had done to him a while ago, he was so angry that he wanted to grab Erix and tear out his flesh with his claws, but that was just impossible.'I'm not holding back this time. You're more ominous than I first thought,' Paul thought with a wrinkled nose.Erix, on the other hand, prepared for a counterattack as soon as he dodged the boy's attack.When he saw that both of Paul's hands had been transformed, he quickly had a change of plan.At first, he didn't want to use his demon abilities, but after seeing the boy's first wave of attacks, he knew he wouldn't just win the fight with brute strength alone.He had to add something to his brute strength.But as much as he needed to supplement his power, he also didn't want to use too many demon abilities.After careful thought and weighing the pros and cons, he finally decided to use the second function of the eye of sin skill and demon fist skill.He ha
Erix was at a loss for words when he saw the messages before him.One came from his system, asking him to accept Zora's alliance, which he hadn't even seen.The second one came from the game menu and said that Zora wanted to talk to him in private.What would she possibly want from him? He didn't know her and they had nothing to do with each other, so what would she want from him?As Erix thought about what she might want from him, a thought crossed his mind and he began to laugh."If she wants me dead, I don't think that's possible. This is a game. She's going to have to meet me outside the game to make that happen."'Are you sick in the head? Haven't you thought about how the system wouldn't possibly ally you with someone who wants you dead?' Lena admonished."Of course, you should be sure of that. After all, you're the system,'' Erix sneered.'Believe me, I'm not. I'm only in control of the things you tell me to do. Without your command, I'm completely non-functional.'"Well, that's

In the fifth city of the planet of demons, the darkness was absolute. The only source of light was the dimly red light coming from the sky. Amidst this eerie atmosphere, a young lady could be seen walking down the street. Her long red hair fluttered in the chilly wind as she made her way to her destination.The demons on the streets recognized her instantly. She was none other than Tania, the famous saintess of the tenth city. Her reputation preceded her, and the demons knew her for her unparalleled strength and her unwavering respect for the demon laws. They were surprised to see her walking down the street of the fifth city at this hour, and they couldn't help but wonder what brought her out of her abode.As Tania walked past them, she maintained a cold and expressionless face. Her demeanor was as stoic as ever, and it was impossible to guess what was going on in her mind. She continued walking, lost in thought until she finally arrived in front of a modern and decent bungalow.Wi
Lord Julian led Erix, Shota, and Orah up a grand staircase to the second floor of his regal mansion. The walls were adorned with paintings of famous battles and landscapes. Once they reached the top, he turned and gestured towards a door on the left."This will be your room," Lord Julian said. "I hope it'll suffice for your stay here."When they entered the room, they admired the room.The furniture was made from the finest wood on the planet and decorated with intricate engravings. There was a large three-poster bed, a vanity table with a mirror, and a fireplace to keep them warm during the colder nights.Shota nodded with admiration "It's habitable. Not bad."Orah examined the room carefully, old habits from his training, and started to make a list of any potential security risks. When he was finished, he said, "It's perfect. Better than that crappy rubbish from earlier."Lord Julian noticed the absence of Scott and raised an eyebrow. "Where is the servant goblin? Did he not wish to
The ruthless demon towered over the cowering goblin, its eyes glowing red in the dim light of the forest.The goblin had lost all of his comrades in the battle that had been raging for minutes and was now at the mercy of the demon that had led the attack."Please, spare me," the goblin pleaded, his voice trembling with fear. "I surrender."The demon let out a deep, thundering laugh. "Very wise of you, little goblin," Orah growled. "You have made the right choice. I will let you live. But there are consequences."Instead of killing the goblin, however, the demon did something unexpected. He looked the goblin straight in the eye and muttered words in a language the goblin did not understand.Suddenly, the goblin felt a strange sensation coursing through his body. He paled, but at the same time, a strange sense of loyalty blossomed within him. He looked up at Orah with wide eyes and suddenly realized what had just happened."You... you manipulated my mind just like your friend did with Ro
Erix heaved a sigh when he heard what Orah said. Orah had deliberately spoken of the rebellion to give him no choice but to agree with his words, and it had really worked.Definitely, they wouldn't let the goblins go after learning of their plan for fear of being exposed. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean they must kill the goblins to silence them. There are other ways to silence them without actually killing them.As much as Erix had the urge to kill the goblins for the sake of exp, he didn't want to miss the opportunity to gain loyal servants who undoubtedly would bring more benefits than just the immediate gain of exp.Thus, instead of complying with Orah's appeal, he acted differently."No, we won't kill them. They'll be useful to us if we have them as servants. I don't want us to waste them by killing them," Erix told his friends."How are we going to tame these losers anyway? Why don't we kill them now to save ourselves the trouble of doing that in the future?" Shota spoke up, soun
Erix and his friends delved deeper and deeper into the forest as they talked to relieve their boredom.However, that was only until they came upon a group of seven goblins, armed to the teeth.They stopped a short distance away from the goblins before they were seen.The goblins carried spears, bows, arrows, and many other vicious weapons."What should we do now? Go back?" Orah asked in a very low tone."These guys are armed. They are not like any other goblins we have encountered so far. Maybe we should leave before they see us," Erix asserted. In his opinion, he found it pointless to waste their strength fighting the goblins."Come on, it'll be fun to fight these losers. Only I can take them out at once," Shota said with excited eyes. However, seeing that none of his friends reciprocated this enthusiasm, he sighed and said, "Fine, if that's what you want, then... Ahhh!!!" Shota cried out and jumped up in startlement.A few seconds later, a rat ran out from under the ground where he h
In the portal room inside military base two, a purple opening appeared from which five soldiers emerged.The soldiers were the military team that had gone to look for the students who had gotten lost inside a beast planet. However, they had returned empty-handed, believing that the students were no longer there.They saw it with their own eyes as the students dissolved into red, invisible dust."Everyone, except Leo, can go back to their domains and rest. I'll report to the General Staff with Leo," General Stanley announced shortly after they arrived.They all nodded and went on their way. But all of them except Leo.General Stanley looked at Leo and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this? Roaming about Camuti alone is dangerous, you could even die there."Although he was always envious of Leo and his impeccable way of doing things, he didn't wish him death.Leo's face was cold and expressionless. He only nodded but said nothing."If you say so. Just know that you don't have to kill
Josh was a little startled when he heard that. He didn't know why, but Erix's words made him anxious and frightened. He tried to put up a calm facade, but that immediately crumbled as Erix approached him.Erix walked towards him calmly and with a cold expression. He didn't look excited or angry.'But he's only human,' a thought popped into Josh's head. 'What if this is only a technique to intimidate and disorient you? He may have super healing, but he's not invulnerable to death, so be smart. Kill him when you get the chance.'Josh's courage immediately picked up as this thought crossed his mind.He got into a fighting stance and laughed nervously, "Come on, little human. You can't scare me."Erix chuckled when he heard this. He pronto activated his light wing boots and transported himself behind Josh, invisible as a bullet."How about now, are you afraid of me?" Erix asked in a whisper, chuckling. He wasn't attacking Josh yet. He just wanted to scare him a little.Josh was terrified
