Inside a room in the first-year block, a lady was standing in front of a middle-aged man who was comfortably seated in front of a large desk full of paperwork.He had a case of terrible black bags under his eyes, probably because he hadn't had enough sleep. The lady was Jasmine, the school nurse, while the middle-aged man was general Ryker.She was there to submit her last report on the ongoing investigation."What happened to the witness?" General Ryker asked in a demanding tone after he must have gone through the report. It was apparent on his face that he wasn't satisfied."I apologize for not including the witness's information on the report. I thought it wasn't necessary," Jasmine apologized with a little bow. "The boy died. An invisible object appeared to have blocked his bronchi, thus disallowing him from respiring. But this is only an assumption, I didn't see anything on the x-ray result."General Ryker thought for a while. "You did well by not including the boy's info on the
Erix was utterly shocked by what he saw there.There were hundreds of capsules that students could use to play whatever game they wanted, but the most famous game was the one where students could fight each other.It was so famous because they could fight freely without the risk of damaging their opponent for real.Moreover, the matchmaking was done so well that they didn't fight against people too strong or too weak for them unless the person wished for something like that.When he inputted his military ID number on the screen in front of the capsule he chose, a payment option surfaced.He couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the cost of the VR game. It was awesomely unbelievable. He only needed 35 points to purchase an hour inside the game. The excitement started to build up in him.'You see, I told you to check it out first before finalizing things.' Lena told him.'Well, I can't be blamed. VR games cost quite a fortune for poor orphans like me in the city I used to live in.' Sin
'Seriously? What was that? I won't be able to go near him if he keeps using that every time,' Erix thought as he prepared to dodge multiple fireballs coming at him.However, these ones were a lot faster than the previous ones. Some part of his hair burnt off in the process of dodging that attack.'Shit! If he keeps dodging my attacks like this, he will have enough energy left to overthrow me when I'm low on power,' The black-haired guy grumbled in frustration. 'Wait, don't tell me he's intentionally dodging and waiting to attack only when I'm low on energy? You son of a bitch! I will f**king kill you!' He was fuming in anger, so without knowing it, he sent 8 fireballs flying toward Erix, but the result still never changed. The latter avoided all of the attacks."Stop dodging like a rat and fight like a real man!" The black-haired boy shouted as he sent faster fireballs at Erix. 'Is he kidding me?' Erix thought angrily. 'It's him who doesn't let me go near him and he has the guts to
The moment the fight began, his opponent rushed over him with his weapon.Probably because his weapon was a short sword, he wanted to get near Erix before attacking.When Erix saw this moves, he smiled in happiness. 'This guy is speedily approaching his demise.' Erix thought.Erix had more advantage in close combats over ranged fights, so when he saw his opponent running within his attack range he smiled at his plan's success...Erix didn't bother to react; instead, he just stood in one place waiting for the boy to get close enough.A few seconds later, Erix's opponent was an inch away from Erix, ready to thrust his sword at him, but before the boy could get to achieve that, Erix ducked a little backward and dodged the sword attack, before landing a demon fist punch on the boy's stomach.[Sinful child is the winner]Just like Erix predicted, the fight ended quickly. The moment he saw the boy running into his attack range, he knew the fight would be very quick and easy.After that, num
Before then, Erix already guessed Zora would try to use something to protect herself, so he prepared a surprise attack beforehand.Erix speedily ran towards the water wall to send his surprise attack.But unbeknownst to him, Zora was also preparing her attack behind that giant wall.However, he caught up with the wall and activated his demon fist, ready to land it on the water wall, but before he could, Zora discarded her water wall and unknowingly crashed into Erix's attack. Luckily, she was wearing intermediate chest armor otherwise, she could have been greatly injured.The collision had thrown both of them apart with tremendous force.Zora caught herself before she would reach the ground but the same wouldn't be said for Erix.Erix crashed into the ring wall before finally dropping to the ground."Awww!" Erix groaned in pain as he rolled on the ring floor.That attack was far stronger than he imagined. He never imagined it to be this strong.He raised his head to see the condition
Zora no longer had the upper hand, instead, she was the one at the receiving end. After regaining composure from that punch, Erix had activated his drain skill and used it on Zora and its outcome was truly remarkable. He drained Zora's life force, though not to the point where she will have to die, it still did a tremendous amount of damage to her. The result of that drain was that Zora turned extremely slow and very tired to launch an attack. [Skill Power drain] [50% of human life force has been consumed] [+5 points have been added to vitality] [+2 points have been added to stamina] [81/ 100 Demon energy] Those were the messages that appeared after Erix used that skill on her. He was surprised by the amount of energy he had taken from her. 50% was way too much for a few seconds of using the power drain skills on her. This means that if he had persistently used the skill on her for like a minute, he would have drained her entire energy. "That was really fast, to be honest,
[You've been surrounded by five enemy ability users][Quest received][Defeat at least two enemies][Reward: Hidden]After seeing that message, Erix stood on high alert for any form of attack or the sort.Strangely enough, he wasn't scared, though a little nervous. Being afraid would do him no good, nor would it enable him to win the upcoming fight, so he tried as much as possible to not be scared.Perhaps, being a level 5 helped him with this.Erix didn't stop walking, he continued walking as though he was oblivious to the happenings around him.He tried as much as possible to act oblivious and continue walking, but all of a sudden the sweet fragrance of something filled the air.He needed nobody to tell him that the scent was from blood.However, Erix's thirst began to rise. Though not to the point of turning into a berserk vampire, the effect was still a bit overwhelming.'No, not now, please,' Erix muttered in puzzlement as he felt his claws elongate a little.Unbeknownst to him,
"Alright, I get what you're trying to do. But I'm not that dumb to lose my cool over a few words. Hope you get that, asshole?" Salvador said with a sly smile. Though it wasn't noticeable, Erix turned sad. He never thought the boy would be able to figure out his tactics. 'This is bad. Looks like he has decent control of his temper, contrary to my assumptions. I think I'll have a really hard time dealing with him now!' Erix thought. He was worried. "Fine, playtime is over, let's begin this fight," Salvador said before blasting a lightning attack on Erix from both of his hands. 'What the fuck? Lighting ability! This is bad,' Erix muttered as he jumped out of the way to allow the lightning to pass. Erix's legs took him at an unimaginable speed beyond his speed limit. "Awww!" Erix groaned in pain as he crashed to the floor. [-4 HP] [18/ 25] Erix was shocked by his increased HP count but he didn't allow that to distract him. His life was more important than any other thing. "Wow,
