“You see students, there is more to some things than it meets the eye. ” Sir Oluwale declared, from the onset, that he knew that Nate would win the match and that Gecko would fail due to overconfidence.
‘This young lad, there is something strange about him, a tick beast but yet he moves with unparalleled speed and strikes with unimaginable strength, he thinks like a battle veteran, this boy has potential. ’ Sir Oluwale said, he had been observing Nate ever since he started fighting.In his mind, it was clear Nate knew a little bit of martial arts but his technique was sloppy, he did have good instincts and was an excellent tactician, but he could also notice a strange energy surrounding him, one that wasn't domineering and a bit premature.‘This boy, I do not believe that is his beast, he is hiding something. ’ Sir Oluwale thought, Sir Oluwale was a smart man and he knew Nate was hiding something.“Now, everyone please take this as a lesson. ” Sir Oluwale said, he walked right up to Gecko who was just barely regaining consciousness.With a swift swipe, he crushed Gecko's jaw with his cane, making Gecko wince in pain, “The next time you call someone stronger than you trash, I will give you hell, do you understand me? ” Sir Oluwale said while looking straight into Gecko's eyes.Gecko was too weak to reply so he just nodded his head with tears in his eyes, “Good, now scream to the healing department, they will take care of your wounds, and do not be late. ” Sir Oluwale said and then he turned to face Nate.He looked at Nate's body but was surprised to find out that his bleeding had stopped and his cut marks were slowly healing back up.With a mere swipe of his hands, blue energy left his arms and was headed towards Nate at an incredible pace, Nate wanted to dodge at first but he could feel that the energy was not meant to harm him.The ball of blue energy landed straight on his chest and Nate could feel a rejuvenating feeling in his system, he could feel his energy replenishing and his wounds disappearing completely.[FOREIGN ENERGY HAS INVADED YOUR SYSTEM. ][HEALING INTENT HAS BEEN DETECTED IN FOREIGN ENERGY][FOREIGN ENERGY HAS BEEN ACCEPTED][FOREIGN ENERGY IS

could feel it, he was sure he could match up to more people now.“Now, I believe we have wasted enough time, let us head to the Battle Mage Block. ” Sir Oluwale said and the students began following him.After selecting a specialization students were to be trained for six months before heading to their continent's academy where they would receive extensive veteran training before becoming fully-fledged warriors and handling the cases of wild beasts.“We are here. ” Sir Oluwale said as soon as they arrived at the battle Mage building, at the entrance was a statue of Sir Oluwale himself with a sword held in one hand and a ball of energy held in the other.Past that were several small buildings that seemed to be residential areas for servants and Sir Oluwale himself, there was also a huge and empty field of grass with weapons surrounding them and several wooden dolls which had human shapes in place, the whole place was a bit quiet and the smell of freshly cut grass was the most potent smell there, besides that nothing else could be seen.Sir Oluwale made his way to the field of grass which also had a little stream running by and the students followed, some had already theorized what would be going on.There were huge trees surrounding the field of grass which provided shelter for the students and Sir Oluwale to train in peace.Sir Oluwale sat at the foot of a huge tree and instructed the students to sit on the other side of the lake under another set of trees.The number of students in the Battle Mage specialization was around 20 including Gecko, and they were all seated comfortably.“A Battle Mage is a unique specialization, it consists of the training of a knight, that of a Mage, and that of a martial artist, it is a perfect and harmonious balance of both sides, and it excelled so well when it was first tried that it became a specialization of its own.However, a battle Mage cannot be called a full knight or a full Mage nor can they be called a full martial artist.As we all know a jack of all trades is a master of none.By the end of these six months of training, only ten of you will be selected as ready to go to the academy, while the rest of you will be trained further.Every day every one of you would receive theoretical knowledge on how to cast spells, fight, and use weapons, and then you would put into practice what you have learned against those wooden dolls over there.Your fighting skills would determine your rank in class and only the top ten would be recommended for the academy, there would be monthly duels to challenge people for their positions and the whole thing would be selected by me.This is how these classes would be graded until I die, the students who failed last year would also be joining you all to make the place livelier and more competitive.If you fail next year the same will be repeated in your case, if you fail this class twice, however, you will either choose a new specialization or you will kindly exit this school.There are also weekly duels among each specialization to determine the best, fail this and I will fail you.Now, enough talk show me what you have got against those dolls. ” Sir Oluwale finished, his explanation and speech were so perfect that no one would get confused and everyone understood perfectly.[QUEST: IMPRESS YOUR TEACHER.INFO: YOUR TEACHER HAS GIVEN YOU A TASK, DEFEAT THE DOLL'S AND IMPRESS HIM.REWARD: +50 EXP]The system gave Nate more motivation to do his best and impress his teacher, who would not want more power.‘I love this system. ’ Nate said to himself, ever since he had gotten the system things were looking up for him.‘I am watching you Nate, show me what you have got.’ Sir Oluwale said internally.Nate stood before his magical doll, there was enough for everyone in the class and they were all staring at them. The dolls were all made of wood and were designed like Japanese samurai wearing masks, they had a katana which was held by both their arms, they held one leg before the other, and their eyes were dead and focused. Although the dolls were made of wood they were still human-looking and looked extremely durable, the amount of craftsmanship that had been put into every single one of these dolls was simply outstanding, and their functionality was mind-blowing. “These are magical dolls created by the forge mastering department, each of these dolls is designed with the intent to train students on their battle techniques, these dolls are all capable of five different levels. Level one is a basic sword and magical attacks, at level two these dolls increase in speed, strength, and sensibility. At level three they possess amateur magic and sword attacks, Level four is for expert
Nate got to work, he knew he had only a week to beat this doll if he wanted his EXP and he could not afford to let up, give up, or get tired, his mind was inhumanely focused and he had gone into a state of such focus that made men gods. Nate searched the body of the doll and was able to see a switch that went all the way from level 1 to level 10.Nate turned the doll on and soon it had assumed the battle stance he was familiar with. The doll unsheathed its blade coating it with pure orange flames that burned with low intensity but were hotter than regular flames. Nate stared at the dancing flames of the sword, he knew he had to be careful there was no Sir. Oluwale to heal him and if he made a silly mistake that would be the end of his life. “Let's do this. ” Nate shouted and immediately assumed a battle stance, he was more than ready to take this beast on and his undying determination was burning like flames in his heart, whatever Nate set his mind to, he would achieve it. “Sir,
The next day Nate woke up to the chirping of birds above his house, Zurblis was a really beautiful and peaceful land filled with naturally beautiful sights. Nate quickly freshened up and got ready for school, he put on the clothes which were gifted to him by Sir. Oluwale the other day and swiftly made his way to school. Nate was peacefully walking when suddenly mud splashed on his face, “Aghh” Nate groaned in anger, he knew there was only one family in Zurblis that could be such dick bags. “Hey loser, just wanted to remind you that you would never be greater than me. ” Nate heard the same voice he loathed with every cell in his body. “That is what your father was told as a kid. ” Nate snorted, he knew what he just did was punishable by death but why would he care? Mark's face turned red with fury and could be seen through the carriage glass, “You are lucky I do not have time for incessant fools like you. ” Mark said angrily and ordered the chariot driver to keep moving. Nate was
This time the students would not be tested using a magical doll but instead be tested using a strange magical orb. The orb was just like that which they used to awaken their beast, but instead, this one was transparent and had a small luminescent flame burning in the center, dancing ever so slightly. Everyone would line up and calmly place their hands on the ball, the reaction of the flames would determine their magical talent. The students quickly formed a long line before the orb and Nate had somehow found himself at the last position, his heart was pounding Nervously, he had no idea if he had any magical talent or not so he quickly checked his system to see.

“Sir, please I'm sorry, I am not a witch, my mother was one, I escaped when she killed my father for refusing to allow me to become one, please sir, I only have which magic in my veins, I am not one. ” Ragnar cried and threw himself at Sir. Oluwale's feet, showing a sign of surrender. He really wanted to escape taking this test because he was afraid of his secret being revealed. Ragnar was born into a pretty strange family, his mother was a witch, the leader of a coven to be exact and she had kidnapped his father keeping him as a pleasure slave. One thing led to another and she got pregnant with a child and bore Ragnar, Ragnar was half human half witch and from a young age Ragnar had displayed an unbelievable talent for magic. Ragnar being half human, half witch possessed something albeit unique, witch magic always gave more than it took and always destroyed whatever it came in contact with, while human magic only consumed Mana and could be used to create. Ragnar had developed a
“What are you, boy? ” Sir. Oluwale asked in shock, he had never seen a mana orb having such a reaction or any student ever having such a test result throughout all his years of teaching. “I. I. I. I don't know. ” Nate said confused, he clearly did not understand the results of his test, and he had no idea if it meant he was powerful or if he was weak. “Your magic talent is great, too great, boy you have the capacity to become a god mage if you are trained well enough” Sir. Oluwale said with stars in his eyes, he had never seen such a potency for magic as Nate's and he was sure if anyone was going to become even anything remotely close to a God mage, it was him. Nate looked at the man confused, he checked his system's stats to make sure he was seeing properly.

The boys all around Nate started showing signs of beastly transformation all entering into “Beast Mode” which was a sign of fusion between an individual and his/her beast. Beast mode was not something that could be achieved within days, it required months of training and communication with one's beast, the deeper the connection between a beast and their individual the stronger their beast mode would become. At the sight of the boys using beast mode Nate was, able to determine something, he now knew why he hadn't seen Ivan on the first day of class. Ivan and his group were all failures, one who failed the academy tests and had to repeat another six months of training. “Oh no. ” Nate said with worry and panic written all over his face. “I see, you at least have a working brain which means that you have realized your death is imminent. ” Ivan said and he was dead right. Four more boys had joined Ivan and his group making them all ten boys in total, now, if these ten boys were exact
Nate managed to get a glimpse of Ragnar and how he currently looked. Ragnar didn't look like the weak scrawny kid that Nate had seen previously in the class, instead, there were more things different about him, it was obvious he had changed, he felt darker, colder, and more evil. Ragnar had his hands placed on where Ivan's hand used to be, he had a crazy look in his eyes and his right cornea was reflecting intense red light making him look more ominous than before. A dark force could be seen emanating off of his body almost like red mist, it swirled around his body spreading forth and destroying everything it touched. Ivan instinctively tried to hit the boy before him but a fast-flying ball of ice hit his left arm, freezing it completely. “ARGHHHHHH” Ivan screamed in more pain thanks to the attack of Erin Snow who stood behind Ragnar, a spear made of ice was firmly held in her hands. Erin had the same cold look on her face as always and it was always hard to read her, Ivan tried
“There is no time to think about what just happened, let's go.” Melvin said while opening a portal. Sure Nate had just witnessed the most insane display of power in his entire life but he had something more important to do. Nate jumped into the portal along with Melvin, Aldrich and Brandon, if there was going to be anything too strong, they would take care of it alone. Emax tapped his feet on the ground, every shadow being in the area had vanished and even those who were shadow possessed had been set free. How he caused that, he had no idea, but he was finally happy, happy that he had set his old family and friends free from the curse of the shadows. “It took years, but finally I've set my family free.” Emax said with tears gathering in his eyes. “Emmanuel, is that you.” a strong female voice said, a voice that Emax would never forget . “Mom?” Emax said, unable to believe his eyes, in the blink of an eye he appeared before his mother and embraced her deeply. “You did it
“What exactly are you boy?” Kraven asked, he could feel his body quivering in fear, Emax had a rabid look in his eyes and his celestial energy began going wild. “You worthless human, how dare you scratch me.” Kraven said, he swung his arms towards Emax but the arm just passed through him. Shadows erupted all around Emax, his eyes has turned milky white. A beam of light shot out of his body, penetrating the skies and ripping a hole through space and time. The light was so powerful that anyone from every part of the world turned their heads to witness what was going on. Everyone has stopped fighting for a second just to stare at the light. “A god ascends.” an old man said before bowing to the ground, all around the world, various people like him had seen what had happened and had gotten on their knees. Whenever a god became supercharged with celestial energy, they experienced something called an ascension. When they went from mere gods to higher gods, it was also at this
“Come out. ” Emax ordered and instantly the shadow beings materialized but one in particular stood out. A human being, completely dressed like one and having the image of one, no claws, no tentacles, nothing just a regular human, at least on the surface. “Ahh, prince Emax I presume? ”The beast said in crystal clear British accent that would make even the humans of this day and age wonder I'd they were really facing off against a beast. “Let's get past all this crap shall we? show your true nature. ”Emax said , causing blue lightning to begin raining from the ground, how he did that? he had no idea. “Perhaps you cannot comprehend what you see? This is merely my true form, They knew you'd have a problem killing your own race so that is why they sent me. ”The beast said and like he predicted Emax's eyes began changing back to it's normal black color. “Splendid, it... ” The beast tried to complete it's sentence but two huge celestial spears crashed into it from behind. ‘
“What do you mean by the real shadow?“ Emax suddenly asked, joining the conversation,the last thing he needed right now was to battle another Wyvern level threat with Nate. “Do you really think you're the only one with a guild? The shadow scales are the biggest guild in every realm,if you're not careful you'd die soon.“ Melvin said and this time he wasn't smiling. “So what do we do know?“ Ragnar said joining the conversation out of nowhere, he needed somewhere to show off his powers. “Govern is here, one of Kraven's shadow Legions, and he's here with others, we need to move fast, if the shadow has spread as far as I think it has, we only have a limited amount of time even with three dragons.“ Melvin said with seriousness on his fac. “Let's move Nate, we all need to split up, this part of the Southern kingdom is divided into four, we all need to move simultaneously if we have any chance of surviving.“ Melvin said and took off into the air, no wings just like Emax, he just took
Northern Empire “Blake, what the hell is going on?” The Northern Emperor barked, anger filled his eyes, he was fully clothed in red and blue armor, anyone who stared at him would know he was ready for war. Unlike the rest of the world, the Central Northern Empire didn't use swords, scythes, katanas or things like that, they were heavily equipped with mana rifles. The weapons worked similarly to guns, but instead of a metal bullet one made of pure condensed mana would be used. And as soon as the bullet made contact with anything, the ability of the shooter would manifest, if it was a person with an ice ability as soon as the bullet hit, whatever it touched would instantly be frozen. “Dark beasts have breached the Empire's walls Lord Washington, it's not only our empire, every empire has been affected, there is a world wide state of emergency sir.” The soldier said making a salute. “Hmm, Contact the Kings of this empire, we are going for war.” The Emperor said, he knew this day wou
“Are we sure we can hold off this many shadow beings. ” Sir. Oluwale said, grabbing one of the shadow beings around him and removing its head. “I see you're pleased with your new body. ” Aunt Yuki said, dodging a shadow ball headed her way, and severing two more with her scythe. “Will the two of you quiet down. ”Lady Priyanka said, chanting several spells and causing the ground itself to open and swallow the shadow beings. “Woah, your new girlfriend is quite cool Daniel. ”Aunt Yuki said to Sir. Oluwale while pointing at Lady Priyanka. Lady Priyanka's cheeks turned red, she was clearly flustered but pretended not to hear Aunt Yue, she had a secret crush on Sir. Oluwale but he was always too cold and dense to understand her signals. “We need to move, I activated the statues and sent them to protect the king and other royals, more men have been deployed to begin evacuation, Kraven is trying to take this Empire. ” Lady Priyanka said with an angry look in his eyes. “What do we d

“Jack, what did you do?“ Emax asjed with a confused look on his face and his eyes slowly starting to glow blue. “He's trying to turn them all into werewolves.“ Nate said with his sigh, he could see the changes going on in the man's body with his dragon sight, the strange energy that had been growing in Jack had passed on to the men and was slowly expanding in their bodies. Nate could hear the bones and flesh tearing and repairing themselves which made it clear, it was similar to each time he evolved but for these men they were being turned into another creature entirely. “Relax Emax, it's nothing you should be bothered about, it's probably pressure from Jack's beastly instincts, he couldn't control himself.“ Nate said trying to diffuse the situation but all to no avail. Ragnar i* ored the trio and continued to move as fast as he could, he needed to heal from the damage soon or he'd die inside this barrier. “You could have asked them if they wanted to become like you,you don't just
