Secretly Godly

Challenge Accepted

Henry's voices shakes the surrounding, they couldn't believe he will be this stupid. Mr Dawson clapped with joy.

“So be it. As the eldest son of the Tucker family, your words are the same as your father's. The duel will take place in the Dawson training hall, and it will schedule five days from now. Is that agreeable”

Henry nods, he knows Mr. Dawson is after the land, there is nothing they can do anyway, rather than give him easily, he will fight for it.

Henry helped his father up.

“Dad it's okay”

Mr Tucker inhales deeply, he is only pretending to be dumb, he knows what Mr. Dawson wanted, but that land was meant for Lora treatment. He couldn't believe they lost it, they have failed Lora.

“You are awake”

“Yes”

Derek step to them.

“Better start training, moron. I can't wait to kick your ass”

Henry didn't listen to him, he helps Lora up and places her back in her wheelchair.

She hasn't said anything since, and it hurts him.

They left immediately.

Mr Dawson stared at Henry, he could feel a strange presence with the boy.

before he looked like a normal human, now he had the scent of a mage and he saw Derek attack earlier.

How come Derek's strike had no effect on him. He stares at Derek, the boy has been playing recently.

It times he gives him some magical tool that will boost his levels. He must kill that scumbag in the duel.

*

Henry drives Lora home, his father was taking the lead, and he hasn't said anything since they left Mr Dawson's mansion.

Henry moved faster to catch up with him.

“Dad. Trust me. I know what that land is meant for. I won't let Derek win. I will win”

Mr. Tucker faked a smile.

“I know you can. You just have to train harder than him”

“I will do my best. I promise I won't let this family down”

Mr. Tucker taps Henry on his shoulder.

“I trust you”

Even if Henry was at the same rank as Derek, there is no chance Henry will win.

The Dawson family is madly rich, they can buy magical item that will fasten up their son leveling rate, and the worst of them all, magical jewelries, which don't only boost the holder's level but also increase the stamina, reflexes and strength of the holder.

Henry stands no chance against Derek.

he doesn't blame him, there was noway to keep the land anyway, but he doesn't want to see his son gets humiliated.

Mr Tucker stopped walking. His voice was calm and neutral in emotion.

“Henry. I am proud of you”

he faces Henry.

“You are a good son”

Tucker walked away after saying that. Even though Henry awakened the weakest rank in the world. He has never let what people say get to him, instead he fights for what he wants.

He wish he had that heart before, but it's not too late now, he must make sure Henry goes to the academy and he will pay for Lora treatment.

Henry stare at his father, he wonders why he said those words, but it touched his heart gently. He holds his tears, and vows not let Derek win, he must win the duel for his family's sake.

“It's okay brother. I don't mind being like this forever. I am used to it anyway”

“You won't be like this forever. Don't say that again. As soon I become mage. I am taking you to the best mage healer in Blue Terrain”

“Hahaha, in the country”

“Yes, so don't worry”

“Okay brother. I will wait!!”

Henry takes Lora home. He immediately went to their backyard to start his training.

He must level up on his fire skills. He knows the resources Derek will be getting, he can't level up in his class, since he doesn't have any magic item nor has he killed any monsters.

The only thing he can level up now is his normal skills, which will require a lot of practice.

Henry believes if he trains for five days straight, he can level up his skills to being able to fire many at a time or continuously use of it.

Currently, he has only one skill, until he reaches level two in class, he can't unlock more skills.

Henry inhales deeply.

“Fire magic: Cube”

A mini cube size fire appeared in Henry's hands, then he throws it in the air.

“Explosion!!”

The cube fire exploded in the air, forming a bright mini circles fire.

Henry's cheeks moved as he felt the pressure, he could see a drastically change in his magic, before it barely formed a circle, now it exploded a little.

Henry was excited by this, skills power effect usually depends on the class of the mage, if it was Derek doing his explosion skill, the impact would've been five to six times greater, however he was happy his skill improved.

He faces the wooden human figure in front of him.

“Explosion!”

Henry sends the cube flame to the wooden figure direction.

It exploded with impact, but the flame quash immediately. There was no damage except a little black smoke.

Henry gazed down in disappointment. He must do better.

He continued training until the next morning. Henry rested to have his breakfast before he started again.

he wasn't going to give up, he must train for four days, then used the last day to get ready.

He was still trying his skills when Jeremy dash to him.

“Henry…”

he couldn't finish his words, he was shivering with immense fear.

“What is it”

Henry was worried by his attitude.

“The gold mine…. a monster appears in the gold mine. Your dad is rumored to be there”

Henry's heart skipped. He runs to the road immediately. His heart was jumping as he moved to the protective wall direction.

He couldn't believe his father went outside the protective wall.

The gold mine was rumored to be a few distance away from the protective wall.

Few days ago, some bounty hunters entered the outside zone to hunter monsters, monster crystal are used to create magic items and jewelries, so big companies pay bounty hunters to help them with certain number of crystals.

The bounty hunters consists of high-class mages, they are the ones allowed outside the wall.

They spotted a gold mine and informed the military. The military will be coming to acquire the area few days from now.

Henry couldn't believe his father used the secret passage to enter because he wanted to save his family from this disaster.

He reached the secret place in the wall and insert the secret password, only high officials know about the password, his father was lucky to eavesdrop the words, but he ridiculous anybody that will dare go outside the wall.

Who would've thought he will go outside the wall. Henry's eyes were wet.

A portion of the wall form a door and he entered quickly before anybody spots him, there was supposed to be guards here but surprisedly nobody was here.

Henry passed through a tunnel before he came out to the opposite side of the wall.

his heart seized as the air vibrates his clothes.

He is outside the protective wall for the first time and anything can go wrong quickly, the biggest problem was: He didn't even know where the gold mine was located.

Henry stepped forward, and a screen appeared in front of him.
