Before Keith could know it, Jake was already creating two fireballs from his palms. The others watched with confidence, believing that Jake was going to beat Keith to stupor. However, Keith only studied his moves and tried to create his own skills. String of thunder! There was no doubt that fireballs are 1-star skill so Keith was relieved because his current skill was the same as that of Jake. Though he didn't guarantee his win, he knew that he had an equal chance of winning just like Jake. Jake charged towards Keith with the whooshing fireballs on his palms. His speed was utterly incredible, though, it never stopped Keith from dodging the attack. Just as Keith dodged, he scowled and blinked his eyes. ——————————[Do you want to activate your skill: String of thunder?]. ——————————"Yes," Keith requested. ——————————[String of thunder activated]. ——————————Suddenly, lightning with a blue hue, like the structure of a tiny string, emerged from Keith's palm. It was thunder!Just a
Keith ignored the words of the system, however, he displayed his happiness in attaining his first Core Fragment inside of him. Yet, at the other phase of his mind were waves of shock and disappointment. The curious look on Sage's face gave him a clear concept that she had noticed something. After all, the path through this spot was straight and she could possibly see the fighting scene from afar. Keith was dazed. "He is an Awakened! He can create thunder!" Jake shouted with fear and ran away, leaving his friends behind. Keith attempted to chase after him, but Sage's stunning words made him halt his movement. "Why do you lie to me? You are able to awaken your talent but you kept it a secret, why?" Keith faced the other direction which Jake had taken, shocked and dumbfounded. He wanted this to be a secret until the Postings, but now that it had been licked, he wouldn't be able to cover it up. After all, he caused it. 'I should have fought a normal fight.'Keith hesitated'But he
"Well, I talk too much... I don't think I can adapt," Keith remarked and smiled. The Immortal Mage System was quite nosy in its own way and Keith could attest to it. At a point, he wondered if this was what the Supreme Warlord had encountered. But actually, he knew that the Supreme Warlord would have experienced even more. Literally, he already knew that there were more experiences to come. Keith blinked his eyes the moment he approached the entrance of the Menace Forest. Swiftly, the system obeyed.——————————[Do you want to activate weapon: Longsword?].——————————"Hell yes," Keith replied. ——————————[Lv1 Longsword activated?]. ——————————The longsword appeared on Keith's hand suddenly, making Keith smile in relief. Keith wondered why the system brought out the weapon section without his appeal. It had happened most times like this and Keith was only getting curious.Was it that the system knew his mind? Or was the system his mind now? Keith pondered for some moments, conte
Keith thought of turning back and running for his precious life, but he knew that that wasn't the right action to take at the moment. He knew that he wouldn't make many steps before being caught by the Critter. As Keith stared at the monster, his eyes widened in fear as it made more steps forward. Right now, the Critter was totally delighted to have found breakfast. The Critter has three heads attached with each having two eyes. One faced Keith directly, the other to the left, and the third facing the right side. Its long fangs and curvy sharp claws were enough to reveal that Keith was on a thin line between life and death.It possessed a dark wood-like body, short hands, and shanks of about a foot tall. Still glancing at the Critter, the Immortal Mage System popped up. ——————————[Name: Critter].[Race: Monster]. [Tier: 1].[Brutality: D]. [Remark: Cannot be killed with level 1 weapons]. ——————————Keith stared at the system screen with a confused countenance. "Monsters do ha
Keith staggered out of the Phantom Falls with his left hand placed on his chest. He was happy to have slain the fuckin Critter, but, the pain he felt didn't enrich his happiness. "Level 2 longsword deactivate," Keith ordered. Swiftly, the longsword he held in his right hand disappeared into thin air. 'I think it's time I purchase a spear. Killing monsters won't be that hard anymore...'Keith thought as he descended the hill of the Phantom Falls. At this moment, Keith felt weak... Sure, if even a Gold-rank Awakened was in his shoes, they would have felt exactly the same way he was feeling right now. Truthfully, his chest hurts so badly. His ass aches. 'There is no way I can kill five Tier-0 monsters today. I am gonna just die and face the impacts of foolishness in the heavens.' Keith thought as he leaped against a fallen tree by the forest pathway. However, the Immortal Mage System remembered him of something... ——————————[Host, do you want to purchase some healing portions fo
Keith heard the roars of a group of monsters from behind. It was much like a sound exhibited from an angry monkey, though, Keith hadn't seen an angry monkey before, but he guessed this was just the right explanation. A group of seven Tiger-fanged monkeys could be seen behind him, each staring at Keith as though they were looking at a prey. Of course, what would they have thought of? Monsters do sense the power level of a human... They can even detect one's talent when close to the person... It was certain that the Top-tier gods granted powers to every being they created... Actually, they couldn't just keep their powers to themselves. It was too much. Monsters are considered as Sensors, Specters are Dark Mages, Dark Orcs somehow retained the Spell Casters title, and humans, the "soon to be demolished race" of the multiverse, are known as Manipulators... They are users of all kinds of elements. Keith frowned as he stared at the Tier-0 monsters, his eyes exhibiting a sudden hue of
Keith was shocked at the moment. Without making any attempt to activate the newly mentioned Three Bolts Of The Heavens, he quickly stepped out of the Menace Forest... Luckily, he sighted an abandoned building not quite far from the entrance of the Menace Forest. This building was formerly used as an English and Chinese educational teaching hall back when the Blue Planet wasn't that enthralled by the tremendous benefits of talents. Heretofore, humans were highly interested in getting a Western Education in order to become literate in the modern sector and develop the Blue Planet's economy. However, since the threat and war with the Specters, no one was advised to learn Martial Arts in order to protect themselves.All of a sudden, no one wanted to be educated... Not because they didn't want to, but because they had to give it up. So, Western Education suddenly ended... Even the teachers themselves were now proudly Awakeneds. No one was ready to die. Keith strode quickly into the ab
"Apocalypse?!" Keith questioned in surprise as the system said those words... He was on the verge of suffocating at that instant, his eyes getting blurry. His was ruled by his sad emotions, the recollection of seeing his beloved die without him offering any help. Keith was utterly frightened where he stood as he couldn't hold his stance anymore, falling onto the solid substance he had stood on. "Tell me! What does this mean?" Keith asked the system with a fearful yet serious expression. ----------------[First Bolt: Apocalypse]. [Description: This is a situation whereby the world would be shaken to its core... Grounds would tremble, lives would be lost, buildings would fall flat, and all cores would be extracted. This is the first intention of the Top-tier Gods to wipe off humanity, thus, there is no way this can be stopped from happening]. [Host, this will surely happen, I repeat]. ----------------"Hell no! There is no way that would happen, not when I'm alive..."Keith assur
