Before Zak got the chance to celebrate, a flurry of system notifications flooded his vision. The amount of XP he farmed off Eric was insane! It made him level up 10 times in a row. Zak imagined that he would get a lot of XP, but even he didn't expect to get this much.

Zak patted himself on the back for his amazing accomplishment. He jumped up and down celebrating like a child opening his presents on Christmas. He was too happy to hold back his excitement.

Then, he noticed that one notification lingered and didn't disappear like the others.

< You Have Reached The Stage Of Evolution! >

< Do You Want To Evolve? >

Zak stopped his celebration and wore his usual serious expression.

He didn't know the exact meaning of the notification so he didn't want to rush into any decision.

"Avilia, what is this evolution thing?" Zak inwardly asked.

"It's a surprise! If I tell you now, it will ruin it!" Avilia said in a cute tone.

"Some help you are…" Zak said while sighing.

"Don't be like that! Fine, I

    Zak calculated that with his current speed he should be able to reach the dorms in 30 minutes. However, this is way too long. To make it even worse, he couldn't go in a straight line back or else he would be caught by the retrieval team so he would have to take a detour. This would delay him by an extra 20 minutes at best.As Zak started feeling helpless and was about to give in to his cruel fate, he suddenly remembered that he had 105 free ability points to assign.Zak knew what he had to do. But, he was reluctant to do it as it would mess up his previous plans.Zak that screamed a mental "fuck it dood" as he used 75 of his new points into the agility stat. Although he was hesitant to do it in order to not drastically unbalance his stats, he knew it was his only chance at surviving this ordeal so he went with it anyways.Zak then assigned his remaining 30 points into strength. He knew that he is a total glass cannon right now.He has almost no points in endurance but, this was defini

    Zak was still standing in front of the door shaking while inwardly cursing. When the door fully opened, Zak noticed a boy lying in bed holding a handheld game device in his hands.He had dark blue hair that fell down past one of his eyes. His blue eyes looked completely empty with terrible bags under them. He wore a pair of headphones that blocked out all the noises from his surroundings. He did not even bat an eye to Zak that abruptly opened the door.commentZak's mind was in shambles not being able to make heads or tales of his situation. Zak instinctively readied his Katana and was about to attack the student when he felt Avilia's voice ringing in his head."ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED??!"Zak suddenly stopped what he was doing and finally regained his senses."That boy does not even notice that you entered the room! You were about to ruin everything with your stupid impulses. Now go to the washroom and clean up before he notices you!" Avilia urgently pleaded.Without even a moment o

    Everyone around Zak nodded in agreement at his remark.Zak, Ray, and Alex then decided to have a "male bonding session" to get to know each other better and deepen their bonds.They discussed many things about their lives, their plans for the future, and then they played video games for the rest of the night.Alex was from a rich, important family that used one of the most powerful elemental abilities, lightning. He said he was once a stuck up bully back in elementary school but an incident happened that made him change his perspectives. He did not go too in-depth into the story and nobody wanted to pry any further to respect his privacy. His dream for the future is to change society for the better no matter any cost.Zak admired Alex's dreams and ideals. But, he still does not trust him yet. He will have to observe him for a while longer before making his final judgment. If what Alex said was true, he can see them becoming good friends.Ray was a child genius, he was not part of any

    After only 3 hours of sleeping, Zak woke up feeling completely refreshed.The time was already 6 am.Zak was used to sleeping for only a few hours every day due to his rigorous training regimes. But, even still, he had never felt so full of energy after a measly 3 hours of sleep."Demons have a much faster natural regeneration ability to that of humans, therefore, requiring much less sleep," Avilia said.Zak took a mental note of that."Avilia, you're already awake?" Zak said as he quietly got out of bed trying not to wake up his still sleeping roommates."Well yes, of course I am. I am always awake," she said in a snarky manner.Zak remembered that he has yet to retrieve the bags that he gave to the sergeant that escorted him to school.He went over to the terminal in the corner of the room and scanned his student ID to retrieve his bags. Suddenly, the white plate beside the terminal started to glow. His bags suddenly teleported on the plate a mere moment later.Zak Only had 2 small

    Zak noticed the time on his watch.He still needed to take his morning shower and get ready for school so he headed back to his dorm.When he reentered his dorm, he noticed that his roommates were still fast asleep in awkward positions.He couldn't help but chuckle a bit at how ridiculous they looked.He did not even have to get clothes ready for the shower as he already had everything in his inventory.As he casually entered the bathroom, he went over to the sink to wash his face from the little sweat he built up doing the daily quest.As he looked at himself in the mirror, he could not help but inwardly scream."WHAT!? WHO THE FUCK IS THAT!?"This was the first time he ever saw his face ever since his evolution. The last time he was in the bathroom was when he was washing his clothes. At that time, the bathroom mirror was all foggy from Alex taking the shower so he was not able to see his reflection.Zak's previously pale skin has turned a shade darker giving him the look of a natur

    Zak stood there speechless trying his best to hide his immense shock.Zak quickly looked over at her watch to check her power level to see who he is dealing with.Zak inwardly cursed. She was way too powerful for him to take care of at his current power level.His only chance is if he maybe caught her off guard as he did with Eric.Zak's current top priority right now was to stay on her good side until he finds an opportunity to take her out. So, he needs to try to stay as respectful as possible."Ummmmm, excuse me miss, I had a hard time understanding what you meant," Zak said, trying his best to sound respectful.She started to giggle even more which made Zak even more nervous."I mean that you are really attractive and I want you to be my "servant", "she looked at him while winking.All the boys that were previously looking at him with eyes of envy now look at him like they were ready to murder him.Zak forced down a gulp of saliva and responded with the only possible answer."It w

    Alex took a deep long sigh before proceeding with what he had to say."My family and hers have always had good ties. Our parents were really good friends even before I was born. When I was young I was always forced to spend time with her whenever our parents met, which I might add was pretty often.""At first our relationship was pretty good, we were really good friends. She had a really kind and caring personality that showed compassion to all. At Least that is what I thought."Alex took a long pause to calm down and gather his thoughts before continuing with another long sigh."One day when we went to the park to play in the playground, a boy accidentally bumped into her. She fell on the mud ruining her favorite dress. She damn near killed the kid. If it wasn't for me holding her back, the kid would have been definitely dead.""That is when I understood that the way she treated me was not like how she treated others. She sees everyone who is weaker or of lesser birth than her as no

    "Good afternoon young miss Jayden. You told me that you had plans for me earlier today. So, I am here as per your request," Zak said with a fake smile.Jayden started to chuckle a bit before saying."I was going to punish you for making me wait 3 minutes. But, your impeccable manners have saved you just this once.""Next time you make me wait you will be punished. Do you understand, my little poodle?" She said in a dreadfully serious tone."Yes, ma'am. This pet shall never again subject my mistress to such treatment," Zak said, trying his best to hold onto his smile and not strangle her."Good, boy!" She said as her expression cheered up again.Zak was already fuming with anger, but he somehow managed not to show it on the outside. He had never been publicly humiliated to this extent in his entire life."We shall go to my mansion. Once we are there I will explain my plans to you," She said as she entered the limousine."What are you doing there like a dog! Come on and come into the li

    David was on the ground still in shock looking at the man in front of him like he was death itself.It was the same man that they beat up and tortured in a dark alley a few days ago, Zak Farrell. However this time, the number on his watch displayed 3240 instead of 800.Zak had assigned 30 points in Intelligence from the start points he gained after levelling up 3 times from defeating Abby bringing his power level up to 3240."BOSS!! BOSS!! HELP!! IT'S AN IMPOSTER!! IF WE TEAM UP WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO BEAT HIM!!" He screamed at the top of his lungs.However, no one answered his cry for help. Instead, Nathan showed up behind Zak with a huge grin from ear to ear."It seems you don't understand what just happened. Let me enlighten you." Nathan said as he shrunk down into the form of a girl."You thought it was Nathan Johnson, but it was me! Jayden Griffith!" She said with a cute chuckle."Jayden Griffith?! Where is Nathan!

The video has already been posted online and has garnered over 20 million views worldwide.He had been beaten and mocked so many times in one day that he could not take it anymore. In one day, he had endured more punishment and humiliation than he had ever had in his entire life.

Even Nathan and his gang have kicked him out of the group with a beating for being an embarrassment. "My chances of ever having a social life has already been flushed down the drain!

    Jayden transformed back into her normal body before continuing the conversation. "You contacted me in the middle of class asking me to transform into you and to go to the general's office to answer some questions like they were directed at me! You gave me no explanation at all! And now, I even wasted all my lunchtime talking with the general! Just because your sorry ass was too lazy to go yourself!" Jayden said angrily. "That's because I couldn't explain anything to you without messing up the plan. You needed to go in blind or else it would have never worked, " he sighed."Really! Well then explain yourself!" She said while crossing her arms."I lost our mind link as soon as you entered his office so I got even more worried than usual. He must have had some magic crystal that prevents outside communication or interference. It seems like our mind link isn't something that can bypass everything," he groaned."Ok, I guess that's good to know, but you still didn't answer my question! Ex

    General Ryker was in his office flooded head to toe with seemingly endless paperwork.He was a middle-aged man with medium length black hair that went down to his nose. He had a scruffy unkempt beard and blue eyes that had a case of severe bags from exhaustion and lack of sleep that made him look straight out of a zombie movie. He was a very tall man standing at 6'6 with a broad muscular build.'When I signed up to become general I was expecting to be on the battlefield kicking ass, not stuck in a room all day forced to slave night and day on a never-ending pile of papers,' he inwardly sighed.'And now we have a case of murder in the school. I knew it would happen sooner or later but I did not expect it to happen this early.''If the noble households just allowed us to use the watches for tracking and monitoring every student at all times this would not happen! All because they fear us spying on their children! It's so frustrating! Why do they make my life so much harder!''We can't e

    [ You have defeated a C rank enemy! ] Zak was too deep in thought to even notice all the system alerts bombarding his peripheral vision. He was the only person who was able to hear Abby's last words because she said it in such a low voice that only Zak with his enhanced senses could perceive it. 'Fuck! Did I go too far, I did not want to use that move in order to not arouse too many questions but she forced my hand,' he inwardly thought.'Hopefully, she doesn't go running her mouth off after she wakes up about what just happened or else I might have to add her on my hit list,' he thought.The entire class was standing there speechless. They just witnessed the upset of the century. An F rank defeating a C rank even under these circumstances has never been heard of. From their perspective, it looked like Abby got startled from Zak's moves which gave him a chance to dash behind her and catch her off guard. However, their assumptions were completely wrong. What actually happened was

We have finally reached the finals! You all have done very well! But now it is the time to see what the 2 best hand to hand fighters have got to offer!"

    Suddenly, the ground started shaking like an earthquake. a huge whirlwind erupted in the middle of the arena blowing away everything and everyone in its way. The temperature in the room suddenly dropped by 20 degrees and the lights went dimmer and started to flicker. It was like the shadow of death was looming over everyone's shoulder.The entire class just stood in place shivering unable to take a single step.Zak looked up and saw a monster surrounded by shadows, or was it the god of death?Zak was so shocked that he did not notice that Laymen had disappeared from under him.The unknown entity was holding Laymen by the throat with such killing intent that his nether regions suddenly got wet and a brown stain can be seen from his rear. He was shaking so hard you can hear his teeth clanking against each other with the sound of an engine."When I say that whoever cheats gets a severe punishment, I really mean it," t

    Zak managed to make it to class exactly 30 seconds before it started. His class was located at the opposite end of the school so it takes him fairly long to get there. Thanks to Zak's enhanced hearing, he was able to pick up on every conversation in the room. Nearly every single student was talking about the crazy incident this morning. "Did you hear what happened this morning!" "Ya! Some crazy guy stripped naked and took a shit in front of everyone while jumping around like a weirdo!" "Dang! I wish I were there in person! That's hilarious!" "At least you can watch the video on the web. It already has 1 million views even though it was only uploaded 5 minutes ago!" Zak could not help but feel proud of his accomplishment. He caused quite the spectacle. Suddenly, Professeur Leo came into the room looking happier than usual. The entire class instantly went silent as soon as they noticed him enter the room. "Good morning class. Yesterday, we learned the basics of martial arts and

He was hoping that would be the case because he wasn't in the mood to socialize and wanted to instantly go to sleep.He used up a lot of energy today and he needed to sleep in order to recover.As soon as he laid his head on his pillow, he slept like a baby for the rest of the night.------------------------------------Zak woke up fit as a fiddle.
