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, shall we stop him? ” A burly man dressed in black said, beside him was another man and a woman all dressed in similar clothing.“No, let the boy train, his determination is something I have never seen, his will is undying, and he cares not about his physical body, his instincts are sharper than a blade, that boy is on his way to becoming the greatest warrior Zurblis has ever birthed. ” Sir Oluwale said with admiration, he had a soft smile on his face as he looked at Nate who was lodged in a fierce battle with the doll.“Sir, isn't that stupidity, his determination and resilience might end up causing his death one day. ” The burly man said once more, in his eyes, Nate was nothing more than a powerless fool who was working so hard to do something that wasn't working.“Stupidity you say, that young boy landed two hits on that doll earlier today, he nearly died but he did it, he has a powerful mind and spirit, I just hope he becomes dedicated to saving people, or else this entire town would be burned down by his wrath. ” Sir Oluwale said with a bitter smile on his face.“What do you mean sir? ” The burly man asked once again, it was clear he was confused, Sir. Oluwale always spoke in proverbs.“My people have a saying; The child who is not embraced by the village would burn it down to feel its warmth,” Sir Oluwale said with a bitter smile on his face.Nate dodged an incoming sword strike, he grabbed the doll's right arm and pulled it as hard as he could attempting to break it.He didn't want to use his skills so early to avoid getting tired and he had decided that the sword was what made the doll so dangerous.The doll shook its arm violently forcing Nate to let go and tumble to the ground, Nate could sense imminent danger as soon as he landed and he immediately leaped out of the way.There was a burn mark where his head had been previously and now he was getting more serious, it looked like the doll was out to kill him and he could feel it was dead serious about accomplishing its goal.Nate calmly walked towards the doll and was interrupted with another slash to the head which he quickly dodged.[DRAGON FLASH]Nate's body blurred and within a microsecond, he had closed the distance between him and the doll.[DRAGON STRIKE].Nate's first exploded forward, propelled by immense draconic power and sheer will, his fist landed straight to the chest of the doll causing small parts of it to break off.[DRAGON FLASH]Nate's speed exploded once more and he returned to his starting position, he was not a fool, and he knew exactly what would happen if he had stayed put.The last time he did his back was scorched by frames and littered with bruises and burn marks, he was careful not to repeat that mistake anymore.“You see, you call him a fool, but he has learned the attacking pattern of his enemy, not by strategy but by instinct, he has walked through fire, but instead of letting the fire burn him, he mastered it and was forged by it, once bitten twice shy, he dey hear word. ” Sir Oluwale rambled once more.The men and the woman did not speak and calmly let Sir. Oluwale continues his ramblings while watching Nate battle it out with the doll.Nate tried to dodge another incoming attack but was too slow, the sword hit his back, burning a part of his clothes and sending him tumbling.“UGH” Nate groaned in pain, the doll had been whacking him relentlessly ever since he had managed to get his first hit.He felt like he had angered the doll and the doll decided to get more serious with dealing with him.[-10 H.P][H. P: 70/100]Nate's body was now littered with bruises and cut marks, ‘I wonder what happens if I reach 0 H. P? Do I die? Do I pass out, can I die? ’ Nate asked himself strange questions.Nate charged in towards the doll again, Nate's speed exploded midway, barely avoiding the flaming sword that was descending upon his head.[DRAGON STRIKE]Nate struck once more at the doll but this time it turned at the last second making Nate hit nothing but air.[DRAGON FLASH]Nate's speed exploded once more and he had managed to evade the flaming sword that was about to hit him.[+1 speed][+1 Strength][+1 Endurance][DRAGON ENERGY: 0/50]Nate did not understand how he had managed to gain stat points but decided not to bother about it, his dragon energy had been depleted for today and frankly, he was tired so he decided to play it safe for today, there was no Sir. Oluwale to save him.Nate was currently staring at the doll, it was still active but he was just outside its range and was currently wondering how to deactivate it.“Err... Turn off. ” Nate said, his instincts were telling him to just do things the easy way and surprisingly it had worked, the doll suddenly lost power and went to sleep just like magic.That was because it was magic, Nate had failed to notice the small pulse of energy, Sir. Oluwale had used to turn off the doll.Nate checked his stats and left the training grounds the same way he came heading back to his home.SYSTEM LEVEL:1POWER LEVEL: 1NAME:NATE BLISSAGE:17RACE: HumanCLASS: Draconic being in transitionBEAST: Dragon King BeastBEAST TYPE: DragonBEAST CLASS: XX+HP: 20/100EP: 0/50MANA: 10DRAGON ENERGY:0/50SKILLS: 2SPEED: 16STRENGTH:13ENDURANCE: 16EXP:50/100STAT POINTS:0.*SOMEWHERE*Within a dimly lit room, six beasts sat on their throne, all staring at one throne, an empty one, they had horrified looks on their faces as there stared at it.Above the throne a dim blue flame danced around, the flame looked so weak that it could barely illuminate the room but it was burning.“What is the meaning of this Kanan, you promised me you finished off Marv, how is his flame still burning? ” A beast questioned and by the tone of his voice one could tell he was scared.“Relax, I have sent my finest knight to the human world, the old Dragon King must die, look at how weakly his flame is burning, he must be very weak.”“Have you gone senile Kanan, we all know what Marv is capable of, the concept of time does not exist to him, he would do whatever it takes to rise to power as soon as possible and he would come for our heads. ” Another beast king said in fear, they were all aware of who Marv was and what he could do.“Relax, I would never give Marb the chance to rise again, Marv must die, this I promise you all. ” Brad said once more trying to reassure the council.“Kill him soon Krad, or I would go to the human world myself and tear it apart. ”*WEST CONTINENT, WEST BEAST ACADEMY*“I am finally here, I am free, now it's time to please master and kill whatever is left of MarvThe 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
Nate and Erin looked at Ragnar in shock, he looked to have reverted to his previous state but this time his eye was glowing brighter than before. “What the fuck, did you just bite me. ” The fat boy said as he started at Ragnar, and with a violent thrust stabbed his stone sword at his head, aiming to finish him off in a single attack. Ragnar placed his hands on the stone sword and it crumbled to dust before fading away, Ragnar smiled revealing his sharp set of fangs. “Get away from me you beast. ” Chumo the fat boy said in fear, his legs were shaking faster than a vibrator and he honestly didn't know if he would survive. A stab from Erin made Chumo scream his lungs out, he jumped away in fear and turned to look at Erin who had a smile on her face. Despite being impaled and stuck to the wall, Erin still had a little bit of Mana left in her and Ragnar had provided her with the destruction to create an ice spear. Ragnar wasted no time placing his hands on the ice spear that held Eri
The rest of the boys tried to explain their predicament but the sight of a battered Erin, and two wounded boys by her side said otherwise. The villagers quickly deduced that Erin was about to be raped when Nate and Ragnar had most likely tried to defend her and only managed to take care of four people leaving six active. The villagers didn't even care who was right or wrong, they just swept up every member of Ivan's gang and got ready to beat their frustration into them. Nate, Ragnar, and Erin were all panting heavily with tired looks on their faces, it was clear they had over-exerted themselves. “Let's all go home and rest then meet back at school to train with sir. Oluwale later today., ” Nate said before dragging his tired body home. Nate got home, freshened up, had a change of clothes then got ready for the rest of the day's events. It was around 4P.M and there was ample time for him to go back and train with Sir. Oluwale and now he was on his way. “It is crazy how my body
