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

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 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.

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 50: Research Max's gaze locked onto the list of skills displayed before him, his breath hitching slightly as he waited for their descriptions to appear. He was particularly eager to review the details of a newly discovered ability—one that had remained inaccessible to him until now. Within moments, lines of text materialized beneath each skill, outlining their functions and parameters. Most of them were already familiar to Max, but as his eyes trailed downward to where "Recreation" was listed, his expression shifted dramatically. "What...?" His pupils dilated in shock as he absorbed the information before him. --- [Skills and Abilities] » Dash - Level 4 (Enhances current speed by 25 points for twenty seconds) » Sprint - Level 3 (Multiplies current speed by 2.2x) » Regeneration - Level 3 (Recovers from injuries at a rate twenty times faster than normal) » Morph - Level 3 (Bloodline ability - Alters hair color, skin tone, and facial structure) » Joint Movemen
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 51: Uncompleted Daily Task
Chapter 51: Uncompleted Daily TaskMax had spent the previous night deep in research, poring over every available document regarding Lytaians. His mind was still grappling with the sheer existence of such creatures on Earth. He had lived for sixteen years, yet this was his first real encounter with one in person.Through his research, Max discovered that the Lytaians he had defeated was classified as a Level 2, a threat comparable to a Step Three Zeta Rank Xeon User. That realization alone sent a chill down his spine.But what intrigued him even more was that not all Lytaians were mindless monstrosities bent on destroying human civilization. Some, he learned, were once Xeon Users whose Xeon Awakening had gone horribly wrong, mutating them beyond recognition. Others were strange, twisted aberrations—beasts unlike any that had ever roamed the planet, yet somehow sharing eerie similarities with familiar species."Wait... their bodies can be exchanged

Both figures emerged from the shadowed path behind the skeletal framework of an unfinished construction site.Her attire and makeup suggested she had come from an event—perhaps a party. But now, fear distorted her once carefully composed face, her breath ragged as she fought to escape.Max’s sharp eyes quickly assessed the situation. Both the girl and her pursuer moved faster than an average human, making it clear they were Xeon Users. The area was mostly deserted, save for a few scattered individuals loitering at a distance. It was unclear whether they were ordinary people or not, but even if they were Xeon Users, they were too far away to intervene.Unlike them, M

Chapter 53: Rush of FeelingsThe cool night air carried a crisp stillness as Max sprinted through the dimly lit streets of BB City. His breath came out in steady puffs, controlled despite the speed at which he moved. The rhythmic pounding of his feet against the pavement was the only sound accompanying him, aside from the occasional flickering streetlight overhead.By the time he reached his neighborhood, the hands of the clock had nearly ticked past ten. Two hours remained before the day's end—just enough time to complete his final daily task. Relief flooded his chest, easing the tension in his shoulders as he exhaled.His plan was simple: head toward the sparse forest area near the city outskirts.With a flicker of energy, he activated Dash once more, his body surging forward like a shadow breaking through the night. The cityscape blurred past him, and in mere moments, he crossed the last row of apartments and left behind the familiar concr

He frowned, his brow creasing in confusion as he stared at the moisture glistening on his fingertips."Am I... crying?" he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper.A soft chuckle escaped his lips, a strange mix of amusement and disbelief. He hadn't shed tears in years—not since the day his world had shattered around him. Yet here he was, alone in his dimly lit apartment, with a silent tear tracing a path down his cheek.He knew why. Deep down, he understood the reason, even if he didn’t want to acknowledge it. But there was no point in dwelling on it.With a quick shake of his head, Gustav wiped his face and pushed the thoughts away. He had already made a decision regarding Angy.---The following morning, Gustav was up before dawn. His internal clock had long since adjusted to early risings

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!Max’s claws raked across the serpentine beast’s neck, leaving deep, jagged marks that bled heavily.

Chapter 62: The Power of the Bloodwolf Max sprinted across the body of the massive serpentine beast, his hands engulfed in a radiant white glow. The ground trembled beneath its writhing form as it attempted to shake him off. With a sudden lurch, the serpent whipped its enormous tail upward, seeking to throw Max off balance. But instead of being sent sprawling, he used the momentum to propel himself forward, launching through the air with the grace of a seasoned fighter. His body arced high above, and as he descended, his glowing fist was poised for impact. Bang! His strike landed squarely atop the creature’s head, sending a tremor rippling through its massive form. The impact shook the beast slightly, but unlike before, Max wasn’t thrown back as violently. The radiant white light surrounding his hand had absorbed most of the recoil. Landing with a grunt, Max steadied himself, his breath measure

The sheer force of the blast shattered everything in its wake, obliterating reinforced structures and vaporizing any remnants of order.The supposedly self-repairing glass walls crumbled into countless fragments before the energy could even physically reach them, their integrity overwhelmed by the sheer power tearing through the space. For several more moments, the energy raged, crackling with chaotic intensity before the devastation finally settled into eerie stillness.As the thick mist gradually dispersed, the extent of the destruction became gruesomely clear. What once stood as an advanced facility had been reduced to nothing more than a ruin of broken technology and lifeless wreckage.Equipment lay in twisted heaps, their once-precise machinery now melted beyond r

The cool night air brushed against his face as he activated his enhanced speed, dashing between the towering trees with barely a sound. After a few powerful strides, he came to a halt before an ancient tree that stood at least twelve meters tall, its rough bark illuminated faintly by the moonlight.Crouching slightly, he gathered power in his legs before launching himself into the air.Thoom!His body ascended five meters instantly, and he reached out, his fingers sinking deeply into the tree’s rough bark. With practiced ease, he pulled himself up, maneuvering past branches and thick foliage until he reached the top. Perched on a sturdy limb, Max let his gaze sweep across the vast landscape, his sharp eyes catching even the smallest movement below.His perception had improved significantly over the past few days, stretch

How was school today?”“Hey, Max!”A few teenage girls standing nearby giggled as they greeted him, one of them even winking playfully. Max offered nothing more than a brief nod, his expression unreadable as he climbed the stairs leading to his apartment.It wasn’t unusual for him to receive a warm welcome whenever he returned, but today’s greetings carried a different energy. The sheer enthusiasm in their voices made it clear—they knew.

His tone was one of ceremonial pride, but the murmurs that followed came from something deeper—excitement, ambition, and barely contained adrenaline.Among the sea of students seated in neat rows, Max Vale leaned back into his chair near the rear of the hall. His lips curled into a subtle smile, one that didn't quite reach his eyes.So it’s finally here… The opportunity I’ve been waiting for—an excuse to cross the border without drawing attention.The auditorium buzzed with ener
Chapter 57: School Announcement
Chapter 57: School AnnouncementSince the downfall of Old Man Daki, the neighborhood had been left vulnerable. None of the Xeon Users in the area had achieved Zeta Rank—except for one individual. But even then, they weren’t a combat-oriented Xeon User, leaving the district largely defenseless against the sporadic incursions of lower-tier Mixedbreeds.Attacks had always been a part of life here, occurring about once a month in the past. However, before Old Man Daki's passing, the frequency had begun to increase, shifting from a monthly nuisance to a near-weekly crisis. It was thanks to his efforts that complete chaos had been kept at bay, but with his death, the situation spiraled out of control.There were fifty-seven buildings in the area that he had once protected. Without him, it was only a matter of time before disaster struck. One fateful night, a Mixedbreed infiltrated one of the apartment complexes, slaughtering an entire family before hel

Yura Vance, dressed in casual home attire, tilted her head slightly in curiosity at his unexpected arrival."I'm here to see your father. Is he in?" Max asked, his tone neutral yet firm.Yura blinked, momentarily caught off guard, before nodding. "Um, my father? Yes, he's inside."She stepped aside, allowing him entrance. Just as he took a step forward, a deep, commanding voice echoed from within the apartment."Come in, Max."Recognizing Theo Vance’s voice, Max proceeded inside, his boots making barely a sound against the polished wooden floor. The apartment had a warm yet modest aesthetic, its interior illuminated by soft evening light filtering through the window blinds.Theo Vance sat on a navy-blue sofa to Max’s right, his broad fr

A tremor ran down his spine, his fingers momentarily loosening their hold before he forcefully steadied himself.That voice… it couldn’t be—With a slow, almost reluctant motion, Master Jk turned, his breath catching in his throat as he laid eyes on the person who had spoken. His pulse pounded wildly. The composed expression he had worn mere moments ago shattered in an instant.A woman stood before him, her presence undeniable. Long strands of sleek, silver-grey hair cascaded down her back, catching the light as she moved with an effortless grace. She was clad in a short, form-fitting green dress, accentuated by a brown coat draped elegantly over her shoulders. Despite her slender frame, an aura of sheer dominance radiated from her every step.“Young M
