There was no exchange of words, James just lunged forward at full speed throwing out a punch.

Scarlett was stunned for a second but quickly gathered her thought and dodger the punch, but it was already in front of her. She leaned to the side missing the punch by a hair's width. After successfully dodging, she increased the distance between them.

She cleared her mind off unnecessary thoughts and focused solely on her opponent. He was fast, faster than her by a large margin, she knew she barely dogded the punch just now.

'What do I have, I'm not as fast as him, running away will do me no good...think'

James left her no time to think, he attacked again this time sending out a kick. Scarlett this time did not dodge and instead stretched out her hand wanting to catch the kick. She was trying to determine if he also had more strength or if she could contend with him in that aspect.

The kick came and the impact made her feet slide back a bit but in all she achieved her purpose. Though her ha

Scarlett was so elated that she failed to remember the fight was being watched not just by them. She wore a large grin thinking of how easy it would be to complete quests in the future."Aviva, you're the best, can you do me a solid and win eight more opponents?" she had her hand clasped together begging Aviva and for the first time Aviva smiled before nodding.Then wasting no time she rand

    "I'm strong" Aviva's words were so unexpected that Scott stumbled, Scarlett facepalmed while the teachers had an expression that screamed 'whaaaaat?'"Stronger than them" it was a last minute save but it was better than 'I'm strong' she said before."Ryder lasted only two seconds and you did not even make a move, it was the same with your other battles, except the first one" teacher Cain banged his fists on the desk but Aviva did not even bat an eyelid."I am not obligated to share my techniques"Scarlett's face paled listening to Aviva's words. She inwardly gave her a thumb up for acting cool but disrespecting the teachers could bring trouble."Normally no, but this situation calls for it" teacher Cain was surprisingly patient."What is in it for me" if not because Scarlett was scared the teachers might notice something odd, she would have swapped back with Aviva by now. The other souls stood awaiting the worst outcome.The teachers were not so pleasantly surprised. Any student would

    "Hi Ryder what's up" Scarlett greet with an awkward smile worse than an frown."We need to talk" Ryder's tone carried seriousness.'Here we go'"About what?" she feigned ignorance but Ryder saw through her actions."Don't play dumb. Come with me" and then without hearing Scarlett's opinion, he dragged her out of the pod room.Scarlett was caught off guard, suddenly being dragged out of the pod room. When her mind had finally registered what was going on, she freed her wrist from Ryder's grip and wore an angry expression."What wrong with you?" if there was one thing she hated a lot it was people touching her without her permission, with the exception of her friends and family, she hated being touched by others."I don't have time for this, let's go" Ryder reached out his hand again but was sent flinging by Scarlett."Don't touch me. What is wrong with your head? I beat you, but it was just a fight. That's the end of it, there's no way I'm going anywhere with you, not with that attitud

    "Scarlett wait!" Scarlett turned to see Maple running after her."Please just leave me for a bit Maple" Scarlett's sounded dull as she was upset and sad at the same time."There's no way I'm leaving you alone in this condition" Maple hugged Scarlett with watery eyes and even though she wanted to refute, she stopped herself, it was just a hug any way."Feeling better" Scarlett asked the crying Maple. Maple quickly wiped her tears, red from embarrassment and crying.Seeing Maple pout in dissatisfaction, she chuckled. More than half of the reason Maple hugged her was to calm herself down and that was why she did not refute."Thank you Maple, you're the best friend a girl can ask for""Okay stop with the touchy stuff, I won't be able to hold back my tears" Maple sniffed making Scarlett smile."You're here to console me but you're the one crying, what should I do then?" Scarlett asked with a playful smile on her face.Maple laughed and playfully punched Scarlett, then holding her hand she

    "I can identify them"Aviva's words made everyone turn towards her and Scarlett hearing her word wore a large grin almost reaching her eyeballs."That's impossible, not even the ranked (humans that have gone through mana baptism are known as the Ranked) can be sure unless you're not human at all, I don't see how you can see a soul stone inside a beast"Scarlett frowned at Druce's words. He was right to an extent but seeing Aviva's eyes go dim again she threw away the thought."Who cares?" she walked to Aviva and held her shoulders before she continued."I don't care what you are Aviva, enhanced human or not just keep doing your thing, you're my magic wand... no that doesn't sound right, mystery box? anyway you get what I mean, just do you and smile more"Aviva beamed instantly with a smile they never thought she was capable of, then she stepped back from Scarlett's hold and bowed."Thank you, Scarlett.

    "You don't look shocked" Maple was a bit disappointed by the lack of reaction from Scott."What's there to be shocked about, I was expecting something like this" Scott replied nonchalantly."Really, so it was on purpose then" Maple arched her brow staring directly at Scott with her arms folded.'Crap' this time Scott knew Maple was laying a trap for him. If he had simply answered without thinking then he would have faced the anger on both sides, Scarlett and Maple.Then taking a deep breath, he turned towards Maple and gave a big smile before saying:"Your hair looks extra pretty today what's the secret"Scarlett facepalmed, was that even how to change a subject? but the next moment she was surprised Maple actually bought it."You noticed, it's a new hair cream, It's one of the things dad sent for me yesterday" Maple smiled, playing with a strand of her hair before looking at Scott apprehensively and then she spoke."You've changed""How?"

    "Please teach me"Scott had his brows furrowed in confusion. "Teach you what?""Your fighting clip has gone viral, don't act like you don't know. Almost all the major families are looking for a way to rope you in" Ryder was right, Scott knew that already."So..." Scott still did not get it."I don't want to be like the others thinking of ways to please you. I want to be strong like you, so please Teach me" Ryder said with a lot of conviction that impressed Scott."So let me get this straight, you want to be my student?" Scott had the urge to laugh but somehow held it in."I'll do anything," Ryder said seriously.Seeing him so serious, Scott didn't know what to say but after giving it a little bit of thought he decided to put him on hold and not plainly reject him. "Okay, I'll think about it".Ryder thanked him and left."Now how the hell am I supposed to return to the cafeteria? guys any help?" Scott asked but the others completely ignored him.

    Two hours later, Wallace regained consciousness with absolutely no recollection of himself, he was completely blank."Let's begin separation and then we'll call for the young master" Dr. Link said to the other men in white coats.Wallace was then moved to a circular table where his code would be temporarily removed. Things were done carefully this time as they made him unconscious again.Several minutes later, a floating disk with a white manacore sitting on top flew towards the glass pod in the center of the room and ever so gently placed the manacore inside it.After the manacore was placed in, other floating disks started appearing, each carrying a purple or red mana core and then flying towards the opening of the pod.What happened then was a feast for the eyes. As the other manacores entered the pod, each released a hue that was absorbed by the white core.Thirty minutes later, the white core was brought out again, still retaining its color even after absorbing all those differen

    Deep in an underground facility, a young man stared at the reports in his hand and smiled. He couldn't suppress the joy in his heart."You have finally found a way to wipe his memory?""Yes, young master and you should probably continue reading the report" the man standing beside him said.The young man being referred to as young master nodded and continued reading until his eyes widened. "White? How is that possible?""I had them redo the test a couple of times but it kept giving the same results," the assistant said."A white mana core? It sounds unbelievable, the highest so far is gold and Aviva is the only one we have captured with a golden core, how can there be white all of a sudden" the young man lost his composure.While the world was still in the dark about mana core and other related subjects, he had been studying them for years."I was shocked as well, but isn't this a good thing? We have someone stronger than Aviva ever was" the assistant said."Do not say that...Aviva had

    Few hours later Scarlett logged out. Fortunately, she got almost everything, the one thing remaining was elemental stones, not just hers but for the others too and she was hoping on them to get the coins she needed to buy them.After putting down her glasses, she was greeted by Maple's angry expression."I thought you said it was important?""It is important" Scarlett mumbled and then shook her head. She told her everything Alan told her while removing a lot of things though and inputting hers just to be safe."How do you even know all of that?" Maple eyed her suspiciously."Well actually..." Scarlett tried to explain but she was interrupted by Maple."Don't tell if you don't want to. I can't take it when you lie to me" Maple sighed with a dejected look. Ajax wasn't the only reason she was stressed, she had no idea what Scarlett must be going through but she wasn't telling her about it.Seeing the atmosphere becoming awkward she decided to change the topic."Where are your ghost frien

    Preparation

    Nebillon city had many markets, there was even a grocery market but players rarely went there, although one could eat in SSO. It was still advised to log out at least once in two months.As SSO was a prototype it could have many unforeseen side effects, well at least that's what the students thought and the only thing keeping them at bay were these thoughts.Scarlett made her way into the busy market looking for any life-saving tool although she already had one, it didn't hurt to have another. Losing her hard earn levels was a nightmare, not because she was afraid to fight more creatures but because she had no time. It was just a week before the assessment and losing just one level could spell the end for you.She then walked into a store that sold accessories made of jade. Most life-saving tools were accessories so a good start."Welcome, welcome!!" an enthusiastic voice came from the other side of the counter."Hello?" Scarlett tilted her head in confusion. She heard the voice but c

    Time slowly went by and before anyone could realize it, it was just a week left before the monthly assessment.Scarlett had patched things up with Maple and placed her full concentration on training, even though she felt that her instructor was pretty slow.She also ignored the third chain of the quest for the time being. The quest could be shared with ten people and that spoke volumes of how dangerous the quest was.In all this, Scarlett never forgets that her main goal was to save her brother but she was still weak.* * * Scarlett was currently in the training room with instructor Talon."Concentrate!!" Instructor Talon corrected again messaging his temples."I'm trying but it's hard, being on fire without actually catching fire, what do I even need that for, assessment is just next week. Please instructor Talon teach me something that is offensive" Scarlett pleaded but her pleas fell on deaf ears."I will teach you at my own pace. Now quit whining and start working on increasing t

    Maple stood outside Scarlett's room, trying to comprehend what she was seeing."You guys?" she asked confused.When Scarlett started letting out curses, she knew something was up. "Scarlett?""You can see us?" Scott asked shocked. Being seen in SSO was rotatably different from being seen in real life and they all knew that. In fact, Maple just did them a favor by discovering them in the room, imagine they suddenly appeared in the class like they normally did, the outcome would be disastrous."What kind of question is that?" Maple frowned. "Scarlett?""I'm sorry for hiding it from you" Scarlett sighed, but the others had a change in expression."What are you doing Scarlett?" Bruce asked with a serious expression."What? I have to tell her about you guys at least. Scott back me up here, even if I make up an excuse, sooner or later she'll find out the truth so what's the use""If it makes any difference, I'm still here and I can hear you" Maple folded her arms.Scarlett facepalmed, who c

    "I have to complete this quest soon, 24 hours is almost over," Scott said before walking out of the room given to him but then he saw Obehi walking towards him from afar and immediately went back to the room. He had gotten an idea and planned to utilize it.'Don't know if it will work or not but there's one way to find out' he thought before using the small knife on the fruit plate to slightly injure his neck. The injury was healing at a fast pace but at least blood came out and stained his neck.Scott then sat down on the couch making low groaning noise and pretending to struggle.Obehi entered Scott's room and saw him groaning while closing his eyes. She immediately panicked and went to him cupping her face in her hands."What's wrong with you?" after caressing his face for a long time she noticed the blood on his neck and gasped.Scott gave himself a thumbs up before slowly opening his eyes to see Obehi's teary eyes, a part of him felt guilty but he used the fact that she was an NP

    Fire Control

    Scarlett stood in front of instructor Talon, listening closely as he exile the different tiers of the fire ability."While other instructors believe that there is no ability stronger than the other, I like to believe the fire is at the top, understanding your ability makes it stronger""Every ability has its tier, ranging from five to ten. Fire has seven, the first tier is 'Fire Control'"'That isn't so badAs if reading Scarlett's thought instructor Talon scoffed before he continued. "Fire control doesn't just involve you setting something on fire, your control over its will is what counts. Will it stop burning when you ask it to or will it continue to burn even after your orders?""Abilities were never ours in the first place, it's a way of earth's compensation towards our different lack to its current evolution so abilities do have a mind of their own, you have to tame them""Moving on, each tier of an ability has two sides, control over your element and that of others"Scarlett st
