The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 17: Historical Record
Chapter 17: Historical RecordMax held the book in his hands, his gaze narrowing as he read the title aloud:"History of the Year 2076."A flicker of intrigue crossed his face."Isn't that the same year the Lytaians were said to have descended upon Earth?" he murmured, his grip tightening around the thick tome.His mind reeled back to something Miss Raelyn had said earlier."She mentioned Library D…"His eyes widened in realization."That's the restricted archive—only accessible to elite Xeon Users."Max glanced down at the book again, turning it over in his hands, inspecting the spine and cover. He had spent years pouring over history books in the public libraries, but never—not once—had he come across a volume like this.Most history books barely spared three pages on the arrival of the Lytaians, offering only the widely accepted, diluted version of events. He had always suspected there was more—hidden truths buried beneath the carefully crafted narrative. But without access to the
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 18 - Whispers of Conflict
Chapter 18 - Whispers of ConflictA voice, sharp and laced with suspicion, cut through the stillness."Who are you, and what are you doing here?"Max turned his head toward the source of the voice.Three rows down, a woman with sleek black hair strode toward him. She wore a fitted pink dress that accentuated her rigid posture, a monocle perched over her right eye. Her sharp features gave her a stern, no-nonsense appearance, and she moved with the air of someone accustomed to authority.She looked to be in her mid-twenties, only slightly older than Miss Raelyn, though without the same effortless beauty. Unlike the esteemed instructor, this woman bore an air of calculated arrogance.Max instantly recognized her. Librarian Delora, the overseer of Library D—the most restricted section of the institution.Her sharp eyes narrowed in scrutiny. "I don’t recall ever seeing you here before. Who authorized your presence?"There was no recognition in her gaze, which worked in his favor. It was no
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 19: Mental Fortitude
Chapter 19: Mental FortitudeThe faint glow of the desk lamp flickered against the worn pages as Max turned to the final passage of the last book. His tired eyes skimmed the carefully inked words, absorbing each line with unrelenting focus. The silence of his small room was broken only by the soft rustle of paper as he flipped to the back cover, finally finishing the last of the volumes stacked beside him.A deep breath filled his lungs before he exhaled slowly. It was over.The weight of knowledge pressed down on him, leaving him both enlightened and unsettled. The truth—layered, fragmented, and buried beneath countless omissions—painted a picture far different from what he had been taught.Max leaned back against the creaking chair, his fingers tightening around the edges of the book."This has been an eye-opener… The general public hardly knows anything about the past. Is this the government's way of keeping information from people?"His lips pressed into a thin line as his mind re
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 20: Facing the Juniors
Chapter 20: Facing the JuniorsA thick mist curled from Max's fingers, dissipating into the cool afternoon air as the flames on the ball died down. He stood motionless, his expression unreadable as he stared at the group of students approaching him.They advanced across the pitch in a loose formation, seven figures moving as one. Four of them wore yellow athletic vests over white shorts, while the other three were clad in green vests with blue shorts. Their builds were imposing—each of them muscular and broad, like bodybuilders sculpted from stone.One of them, a student with long blue hair tied back, took the lead. His eyes flickered with surprise as he recognized the person who had caught the ball."It's you," he muttered, narrowing his gaze.Max remained silent, simply watching them approach with a raised brow."Return our ball," the blue-haired student demanded, his tone tinged with hostility.Max turned the ball in his hands, inspecting it as if it were a fascinating relic rather

Chapter 21: The Challenge“I’ll deal with him myself.”A sharp voice rang out from the left, cutting through the murmurs of the gathered students.All heads turned as the crowd instinctively parted, making way for the approaching figure.Max, who had been walking away without sparing the fallen attackers another glance, recognized the voice almost instantly. His steps slowed as he turned slightly, watching as a familiar, broad-shouldered figure strode through the parting mass of spectators.The student pushing forward had dark brown skin, a powerful build, and a look of pure determination set into his hardened features.The murmurs in the crowd swelled as people recognized him."Oh my god, isn't that Jace Holloway?""Yeah, it's him!""But where are Roy Madsen and Theo Vance? They’re always together."The students exchanged glances, confusion mixing with intrigue as Jace Holloway marched straight toward Max.Max’s gaze remained impassive as he turned away.“Oh, it’s you,” he said, his
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 22: The Titan Industries Construction Site
Chapter 22: The Titan Industries Construction SiteMax strode through the academy’s bustling pathways, his steps purposeful yet unhurried. The late afternoon sun stretched his shadow across the stone pavement, painting long streaks of gold over the academy grounds.His hands gripped the cleaning equipment tightly, the weight familiar against his palms. Today’s assigned locations numbered seven in total—each one another reminder of his current predicament. He had long since come to terms with his punishment, yet a simmering determination burned beneath his calm exterior. This was temporary.A step toward something greater.For now, he moved through the motions.One of his tasks included returning the history books he had borrowed under Miss Raelyn’s name. He planned to check whether other volumes were available, particularly those covering restricted periods of history. The deeper he delved into the academy’s archives, the more apparent it became—something wasn’t right.Fragments of in
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 23 - Xeon Enhancement Pills
Chapter 23 - Xeon Enhancement PillsJace Holloway’s eyes widened in shock, as did Roy Madsen’s, the moment Theo Vance tore himself from their grasp and bolted straight toward Max Vale."You’re dead!" Theo bellowed, his face twisted in rage as he lunged forward, his right arm drawing back.A bright glow ignited around his fingertips, forming a small blade of condensed energy.The instant he closed in on Max, he thrust his hand forward, aiming straight for Max’s throat.Unlike before—where he had been on the defensive, dodging and evading—this time, Max had no intention of retreating.If anything, he welcomed the opportunity.The moment Theo’s strike came within range, Max’s hand shot forward with blinding speed.Theo barely registered the movement—just a blur before something heavy connected with his face.PAH!A sharp, resounding slap shattered the air.The force behind it was monstrous.Theo’s head snapped to the side, his body lifted clean off the ground as he spiraled through the a
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 24 - Death Crisis
Chapter 24 - Death CrisisMax barely evaded the strike.Jace's palm sliced through the air, missing his face by the width of a hair. The sheer force of the swing sent a sharp gust past his cheek, a reminder of how close he had been to getting hit. But before Max could completely stabilize his posture, Theo had already shifted his weight, his movements swift and unrelenting.A knee came rushing toward Max’s stomach—fast, precise, and impossible to avoid.In an instant, Max braced himself, crossing both forearms in front of his torso in a desperate attempt to block.Bang!The impact exploded through his arms like a shockwave, the sheer force launching him off his feet. His body twisted midair, flipping backward as he hurtled across the rooftop. A sharp crack resonated through his bones—a sickening pain jolted through his wrists.[Regeneration has been activated]Even as the system’s notification flickered in his vision, the agony still lingered.

Chapter 49: Stacking Up Paper Bills"G-Gustav wins the duel!"Supervisor Bola’s voice trembled as he made the announcement, his throat suddenly dry. Yet, even with the official verdict, the gathered crowd remained frozen, their gazes locked on the crumpled figure lying motionless on the stage.Yura Kaelis—once proud, untouchable, the self-proclaimed elite—was now unrecognizable. Her swollen face bore grotesque shades of purple and red, her once-delicate features marred by torn skin and bruises so deep they seemed permanent. Blood crusted along her cheekbones, her lips split and trembling. The girl who had always commanded attention with her beauty now resembled a shattered doll.A sickening silence lingered in the air. Even those who had supported her could not deny the brutality of the scene before them.Meanwhile, Gustav stood unbothered, methodically wiping the blood from his hands as he descended from the stage. His footsteps were cas

Chapter 48: Hash Disgrace Yura Kaelis remained on the stage even after her victory, standing firm with her piercing gaze fixed in a singular direction.A hush fell over the spectators as they followed her line of sight, curiosity flickering in their eyes before realization settled in. She was staring directly at Max Vale.“Max, I challenge you to a duel!” Her voice cut through the tense silence like a blade, sharp and commanding.Max met her gaze with an unreadable expression, his face composed and distant. Yet, beneath that stoic facade, an amused smirk played at the edges of his thoughts.‘So, she finally decided to make her move,’ he mused inwardly, his arms loosely crossed as he observed her.Murmurs erupted among the gathered students.“She’s challenging Max?”“Oh, this is going to be good.”“I’ve been waiting to see him in action again.”Excitement crackled through the air. Though m
Chapter 47: The Power of Creation
Chapter 47: The Power of CreationYura Kaelis froze, her sharp gaze locked onto the group approaching from the other end of the training hall. Her expression flickered with disbelief as her focus narrowed on the blonde-haired boy striding toward them with an air of complete indifference."That's...? No, that can't be..." she muttered under her breath, her mind struggling to reconcile the past with the present.Max Bladeheart had once been someone she barely acknowledged—a figure who had, at most, admired her from afar. Yet, now, standing before her, there was nothing familiar about him. No admiration. No reverence. No lingering trace of the boy who had once looked at her like she was untouchable.Instead, his crimson gaze met hers without hesitation, devoid of recognition, interest, or even disdain. It was as if she was a stranger, someone utterly irrelevant in his world. Yura felt an unfamiliar pang in her chest, something she wasn’t willing to n
Chapter 46: invitation
Chapter 46: invitation Max stood in the quiet dojo, his muscles taut from training. A flicker of amusement crossed his face as he sensed the presence of others outside the door. The muffled voices seeped through the wooden panels, laced with tension and hushed urgency.'Finally grew the nerve to show up, huh?' Max mused inwardly, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. Without hesitation, he strode toward the door and slid it open, revealing the figures waiting outside.Four individuals stood at the entrance—two boys and two girls, all seemingly around his age. He recognized two of them from the crowd that had watched his fight against Aurora, their expressions now a mixture of apprehension and forced confidence. The other two girls, however, were unfamiliar.The moment the doors opened, the conversation among the group came to an abrupt halt. The girl with streaks of black and purple in her hair eyed Max with skepticism before leani
Chapter 45 - Drawing Everyone’s Attention
Chapter 45 - Drawing Everyone’s Attention As Cedric strode through the academy corridors, a subtle grin played at the edges of his lips. "Maybe this place isn’t such a curse after all..." His posture was relaxed but poised, his movements fluid yet commanding. Unintentionally, he was drawing the gaze of nearly everyone in the hallways. Unlike before, the looks he received were not filled with disdain or condescension—this time, they carried something different. The female students found their eyes lingering on him, an unconscious fascination flickering in their expressions. There was something magnetic about the way he carried himself—an effortless confidence that hadn’t been there before. The male students, on the other hand, observed him with quiet envy, as if struggling to place why he suddenly seemed... different. Cedric remained oblivious to their stares, his mind occupied wi
Chapter 44: Collection Plan
Chapter 44: Collection Plan The neighborhood had been in an uproar since the battle against the Bloodwolf. The news spread like wildfire—Max Vale, the quiet and often unnoticed young man who lived alone, had single-handedly taken down the rampaging beast. At first, many were skeptical, dismissing it as an exaggeration. But after seeing the bloodstained pavement and the claw marks left behind, they could no longer deny the truth. The respect Max received from the community shifted almost overnight. People who barely acknowledged his presence before now gave him approving nods or whispered among themselves when he passed. Even the XAO Inspectors who had been dispatched to investigate had questioned him extensively. They had also spoken to Angy, as she had been directly involved. However, once their inquiries were done, there was little else they could do. The Bloodwolf had been a serious threat, and Max’s intervention had prevented fur
Chapter 43: Earned Recognition
. Chapter 43: Earned Recognition A sharp Zing! pierced the air. In a flash of blue light, the lifeless body of the bloodwolf materialized on the ground. Gasps erupted all around. "What…?!" A stunned silence settled over the gathered officers and bystanders. Every single pair of eyes was locked onto the grotesque remains of the bloodwolf, their expressions a mix of disbelief and horror. The creature’s head was barely clinging to its neck, connected only by a few sinewy strands of torn flesh. Deep, gaping holes riddled its body, each the size of a clenched fist, leaking fresh rivulets of blood onto the cracked pavement. Its face was caved in, its skull visibly fractured. The sheer brutality of its injuries told a chilling story—this beast hadn’t just been killed; it had been utterly dismantled. A shudder ran through the officers as they exchanged uneasy glances.
Chapter 42: Arrival of the XAO Inspectors
Chapter 42: Arrival of the XAO InspectorsBAM!The sheer weight of the bloodwolf sent the towering tree crashing to the ground, splintering bark and scattering leaves in all directions.Max Vale stood amidst the chaos, his breaths steady despite the ferocity of the battle. His golden-brown eyes glowed faintly in the dim moonlight, locked onto the beast. He had deliberately struck its head first, knowing that its unnaturally elastic hide would make a prolonged battle difficult. A precise, powerful blow was his best chance at swiftly ending the fight.But the bloodwolf was far from finished.With a guttural snarl, the beast staggered upright, shaking its head to dispel the dizziness from Max’s previous assault. Its dark red eyes flashed with renewed aggression as it planted its claws into the dirt."Awooo!"The beast’s howl echoed through the night as it lunged at Max with renewed ferocity.Slash! Slash!Its razor-sharp claws lashed out in rapid succession, carving through the air with

Chapter 41 – The Strength of Beast TransformationAngy spun around immediately, her heart pounding as a wave of dread surged through her.Swoosh!She shot forward like an arrow, her eyes locked onto the monstrous beast and the defenseless man beneath its shadow. The Crimson Direwolf loomed over its prey, claws poised to descend, a cruel glint in its predatory gaze.The distance between them was nearly a hundred feet, and despite Angy’s exceptional speed, she could only cover around forty feet per second. That meant she needed almost three full seconds to reach them.Three seconds too long.The Direwolf’s claws were already mid-swing.Its attack would land in less than a second.And that meant—Swoosh!Another figure moved.A blur of motion streaked past Angy’s side, so fast that a gust of wind lifted her hair in its wake.‘If even one of them dies, I fail the quest.’Max’s thoughts burned as he launched forward.[Sprint has been activated][-20 EP]His breath hitched as he compressed
