Over 50 tattoos on his body shattered sending green glass-like fragments flickering around and immediately after, 50 different bladed weapons appeared hovering around him.

Lexi held onto two weapons, a spear on his right and a new sword on his left, which replaced the former that was destroyed in the crash.

What he just pulled off was impressive, hence, it obviously required a significant amount of mana.

Five green shurikens spun towards the red demon-masked man, with Lexi narrowing his eyes to monitor what would happen. And similar to what he expected, the air around 5 different points began to shimmer and condense, which was followed by 5 beams of shockwaves shooting toward the shurikens.

Having control over the shurikens, Lexi was able to change their directions mid-air, successfully evading 2 of them from the shockwaves while the other 3 were completely destroyed.

He didn’t seem bothered about that in the slightest rather, he had a smile on his face as just that simple exchange

    The contest continued with more and more contestants joining in, and now, it was finally time for a good entrance.“Introducing contestant 20.” The moment this was heard, the fighting of the previous contestants seized as everyone looked towards the approaching figure.*Step**Step**Step*Whoever this contestant 20 was, gave off a confident and dominating aura together with the menacing mask. It immediately gave the impression that another formidable force had arrived. No one needed to be told the outcome of two tigers staying in one mountain. It would be very normal if this new contestant fought it off with the red demon-masked guy whom no one dared to approach after the fall of Lexi and Red Redder.Strangely enough, he hadn’t made a move either except for the occasional shockwaves that go off once someone gets too close. So everyone stayed out of range from him while fighting and eliminating each other.Seeing all the attention, contestant 20 couldn’t help but smirk internally at

    “Huh?” Art raised an eyebrow when seeing the change in the woman’s expression, or better put, he could feel it. ‘What is she planning?’ Immediately after, he felt himself lose control of 5 earth bullets, which was when what she had in mind dawned on him. “ I see. What a bothersome woman. “ Because of the number of earth bullets, his control was spread thin enough for her to take control over a few. Before Art was able to regain control to stop her, the five bullets shot towards the red demon-faced masked man. As it reached the normal range, the shockwaves were released, rippling all five bullets while progressing further to Art. All the earth bullets moved behind him, towards the direction of the incoming attacks, merging together to form a shield. The shockwaves slammed, cracking the shield while the resulting force spread across the arena. “Is it just me or do those shockwaves seem stronger?” One of the contestants left standing muttered. Art had a slight frown on his face w

    Art’s eyes darted towards the arena entrance as a figure walked towards them. This person was covered with a black cloak, wearing a white and purple wolf mask. Yes, this was the same girl he met during the contest registration.Something was very unsetting about her, especially with the kind of smile her lips were curved into.She arrived beside the kneeling Art with her smile growing even brighter, and before he could react, her hand was on his lips cleaning the little blood left.‘She’s fast!’ He hit her hand away from his face using his before stepping back.He didn’t know if he was imagining things but she seemed saddened by this.“Who are you?” He couldn’t help but ask. Her smile returned as she voiced out, “Quite disappointing, but you’d be finding out soon enough. Why don’t we take care of him first.” Hearing her voice caused his headache to be triggered once more as memories came flooding in. He groaned in pain with his eyes widening as he realized who this person was. “Tr

    “Lady Freda, where are you?” The holographic man’s image voiced out. “Why ask me that? I’m sure you already know where I am. Aren’t I being tracked?” She replied, obviously dissatisfied by this.“Well, that’s true, but what reason caused you to leave the school like that and come here.” He looked towards Art who wore a blank expression. “I guess there’s no need for me to ask that either. All this just to come see your failure of a brother?”Of course, he knew the infamous Art Von Silver and Art knew him as well.The man in the hologram went by the name Kurt Von Silver. He heard that this man was put in charge of his sister which was something the Silvers usually do for students who show promise in their third year, as part of the final act of preparations for the outside world.The atmosphere changed instantly, matching the frown on his sister’s face. “What was that you said about my brother?”Art was expecting this.The easiest way to piss her off was to speak badly about him right

  • The Successor System    Princess's Gift

    With his full name getting called like that, he was without a doubt the person being spoken to.Turning behind, he saw a female figure dressed in an emerald and gold sleeveless robe, accompanied with green elbow length evening gloves. Her brown and green hair was tied into a beautiful bun, endorsed with a very expensive looking golden hair pin.The mask covering her face had the same emerald and gold colour as her dress robe.She screamed elegance and easily stood out from everyone else. The aura she gave off was something unique.So even with the mask on, quite a number of people could tell who this was.And Art was one of them.“Princess Elora?... What are you doing here?”He expected someone with her status to possibly not even be within the school premises, and even if she was, then it would be in a special place.But now, not only was she here, she also seemed to have been searching for him, whatever the reason was.“Even with my mask why does so many people recognize me?” she s

    Once again Art found himself seated in class. The first lecture for the day was scheduled to commence in the next few minutes.Art slowly glanced around before letting out a sigh.It was quite evident from some of their facial and body language that they had a lot of ‘fun’ last night.It was a different way than his former world, but the fact still remained that if you want to become successful you have to strive for it from an early age.Not everyone had the luxury and luck of becoming successful later on in life without earlier investments or struggle. Or at least that’s what he believed. He was still learning things from this world.Not that he cared about them tho.Just shortly after, Professor Prisca walked in. She seemed a little bit exhausted if paid close attention to.Standing in front of the class, she looked around letting out a sigh before proceeding to speak.“I’m sure you all had lots of fun yesterday. Well I have more good news for you.”The words she uttered lifted the

    “You must be very confident to barely carry anything with you for the raid,” Art voiced out staring at Viron who wore regular clothes with the only equipment he had being an iron breastplate.All the first-year students were currently in a large hall, most dressed in defensive materials and carrying weapons.There was still the fact that some students had all or more items stored in spatial storage devices. So Viron stood out in a way…, or more like the trio.Sil was dressed in light gear made from the skin of a defense-based beast. It wasn’t too strong but it provided him with the mobility needed by an archer. As for his weapons, he had a quiver strapped to his back which contained low-grade arrows, as well as a low-grade bow which he held with his left hand.Basically speaking, it seemed as tho he was going to hunt rabbits and the exhausted expression on his face made him look even more unserious.But with proper use of magic, he could deal significant damage to a D-ranked beast at

  • A New Resolve

    It took Caitlyn even longer than expected to find Valor.Back in the dream, the fox had told her to find him. She was pretty sure it had been referring to Valor—after all, he was the only male soul summoner in the entire school.Ultimately, she found him seated alone in a secluded building, his posture slumped, a defeated expression clouding his face.Well, considering he had actually been defeated two days ago, it wasn’t all that surprising.He was so lost in thought that he only noticed her when she got very close.His gaze shifted toward her, his brows furrowing. "Who are you?" he asked, frowning."Uh—sorry to bother you. My name is Caitlyn Slerh. I'm a summoner, also in the first year." She figured he wouldn’t recognize her since he rarely attended classes. "I’d like you to help me with summoning magic.""You’ve really got some nerve," he scoffed. "Leave before I get any angrier.""I'm sorry, but I can't do that. I need to tackle my problem if I want to keep up with him. Please he

  • Fox Soul Summon

    Shallow breaths escaped along with gasps as the darkness around a girl twisted into a white landscape.She stood at the center of the brightly lit scenery, a thick white mist curling around her ankles. It felt both cold and hot at the same time.Faint echoes of whispers drifted from the distance beyond.Suddenly, a deep growl rumbled through the air.Her body tensed as she slowly turned.And there it stood before her—a towering nine-tailed fox with gleaming white fur. Its crimson eyes burned like embers, and each of its nine tails swayed along with the wind.She tried to step back, but she found herself unable to move.The fox advanced, its massive paws making no sound as it circled her."Why are you scared?" A soft, layered feminine voice slithered through her mind.Her eyes widened, her breathing becoming faster and more labored."W-Who are you?" she barely managed to whisper."I am the one you freed and saved. I am sincerely grateful for that, so I shall dedicate myself to serving

  • The Cost of Escape

    *Pant**Pant**Pant*Art slowly brought his breathing under control. He had been so close to dying once again.He placed a hand on his damp, bloodied chest. He had managed to escape by using the space swap attribute he copied to switch places with the clone he left in the forest. Normally, the space swap attribute didn’t work over such long distances, but it works specially well with the clone attribute since the clone carried the same mana signature as him. So, It was successful—though at an immense cost.The technique had drained a large amount of his mana, leaving his MP low. He had also timed it as perfectly as he could, but she had been too fast, managing to partially pierce him before the switch.If he had been even an instant slower, he would be dead by now."I need to leave," he muttered, pushing himself up and staggering away. This place had nearly killed him twice—he had no intention of returning.Art navigated through the forest, even though he had no real idea where he wa

  • Marked by the Kyusei

    Art’s grip on his weapon weakened slightly at the sight of the person staring down at him.From the inscriptions on her eye, he could tell—she was part of that group.And judging by the sheer presence she exuded, she was powerful. Very powerful.Fighting was out of the question."Is something wrong?"Another voice drifted in.'Wait… there’s two of them?' Art’s panic grew, now visible on his face. 'I didn’t even notice either of them…'"Yes. Someone’s here," the woman responded, narrowing her eyes at him. "Though I’m still debating whether he’s here on purpose… or if he’s just lost. Because coming here at that level of strength would be incredibly stupid."Art didn’t even have the luxury of feeling insulted.His mind was working at full speed, trying to figure out how to leave here alive.The second figure—the male—arrived at the scene, his gaze settling on Art.His eyes had an eerie, faint blue glow, and like the woman, he bore those same strange inscriptions. It seemed to be a shared

  • Remains of the Grand War

    Art stared at the little chest for several seconds. 'Is it safe to touch that?'After contemplating for what felt like a minute, he decided against opening it now, opting to store it away for later. With a flick of his wrist, the chest vanished into his storage device.Once he finished collecting everything, he placed them inside the larger spatial device he had bought.Now, it was time to check the ruins.There was a chance they held clues—fragments of history that could tell him more about the battle that took place here.Anything that could provide insight into the Grand War.He exited the central building moments later, stepping into the ruins once more.Unlike before, there was no lingering sensation of being watched.Only silence.An eerie stillness hung in the air as Art cautiously made his way through the crumbling remains of what had once been a grand city.The walls, faded with time, bore cracks and scars from the past. Vines crept over the structures, slowly reclaiming the

  • Back to the city

    Art carefully navigated the forest, mindful not to lose his way.He had planned ahead before now, placing the teleportation circle in a spot that would make this journey easier.After a few minutes, he arrived at the area where he had once fought seventeen D-rank beasts. Much of the mess had been covered by vegetation and nature, but the site was still recognizable.A good sign—he was on the right track.Before long, he reached the stream where he and Asura had fought.It was just as beautiful as before, though he had no time to admire it.‘I believe it was there.’ His gaze settled on the tree where she had told him to meet her. Without hesitation, he headed in that direction.Then, he noticed something."Hmm?"Looking up, he spotted several beasts perched in the trees, staring down at him.They were D-rank beasts, clearly hungry, but none of them dared to move closer—let alone attack.Their instincts and intelligence warned them otherwise.Art ignored them and continued walking.Afte

  • Out of the Academy

    Two days later, A girl with bright pink, pigtailed hair leaned against a wall, her arms crossed. Seated beside her was a black-haired boy with a scarred cheek."You're telling me he's gotten that strong in just a few months?" Karen, the number one Elite, asked, his tone laced with curiosity."Yep. I saw it myself. Not only can he use the Silver special arts, but he also wields rune magic decently well. Honestly? I’m not even sure who's stronger between us." Uramia’s eyes flickered with interest at her own words.Even after Art’s fight, more surprises had followed."And it's not just him. There was another one. Another Silver. He caught me off guard the most. You should keep an eye on them.""If what you're saying is true, then even I would struggle to handle them alone," Karen admitted, looking up at her. "I might need your assistance."Uramia met his gaze with an unreadable expression before bursting into laughter."I’ll lend a little assistance here and there, but don’t expect much

  • Declaration

    "You wish! Don't think you'll just have your way. This isn't over yet!" Valor spat. "Go!"His C-rank summon charged at Art once more, its sheer presence pressing down on the spectators. Many students shifted uncomfortably in their seats, intimidated by its raw power. But Art? He didn’t even move.The summon closed in fast, one of its heated appendages whipping forward, aiming straight for Art’s forehead.About two months ago, back during the raid, this attack would have seemed overwhelmingly fast. But now?It was nothing.Casually, Art stretched out his blackened right arm, catching the appendage mid-strike—right at its burning hot-spot.A scream echoed across the arena.But it wasn’t from Art.The beast recoiled in agony, thrashing wildly. It lashed out with its second appendage, but Art dodged effortlessly, then twisted his grip and slammed the creature into the ground. A deep crack spread from the impact.The summon screeched, struggling to break free. Its flailing tails radiated i

  • The Beauty of Power

    The C-rank summon charged forward furiously.Just by running, its paws and claws left deep marks on the ground.Many students watching were disturbed by its presence. To think Valor would summon something this powerful for just a spar—it was absurd. But despite its ferocity, the beast only showed interest in Art, proving that Valor had complete control over it.The summon was a four-limbed creature resembling a massive hound, but it had two additional appendages sprouting from its back. These thick, tail-like structures ended in razor-sharp points, radiating immense heat. A strike from them wouldn’t just cut—it would sear flesh instantly.Art steadied his stance, his true weapon shifting into a long spear as he faced both the beast and its summoner. Valor smirked, gripping his short sword tightly as he advanced in tandem with his summon.The beast lunged first, its molten tails whipping toward Art with deadly speed. He dodged, pivoting on his heel to evade the searing strikes. Counter
