"Yeah! Yeah! Pummel him!"

 "That's what I'm talking about!"

 "Loser! get up and fight!"

 Entering the battle rambo building, Aiden winced in discomfort at the loud noises the audiences were making.

 Due to being a Vampire, his senses were more enhanced than humans. As such, the noise was amplified a hundred times over.

 It was as if someone placed a megaphone besides his ear and was screaming into it.

 "First time here kid?" the middle aged man who was walking besides Aiden, smiled when he read his body language.

 "Hm. I don't know how to address you sir" Aiden replied.

 "My name is Xavier. What's yours?"

 "Aiden"

 Mr. Xavier grinned.

 "Alright Aiden, let's get you booked up!"

 Leading the way, the duo arrived at a counter.

 "I want to book a fight" Mr. Xavier said to the female behind the counter.

 "Oh? what battle stage please?" the counter lady asked.

 Mr. Xavier observed Aiden for a bit before responding.

 "The Beta stage"

"Alright. Let me prepare the booking. Is your fighter a Magi? and what level is he?" the counter lady asked.

 "Uhm. I'm not sure myself" Aiden shrugged.

 It hadn't been that long since he obtained the system, so he didn't know how the power level ranking worked.

 "It's fine. Pair him up with a 2-star Omega Warrior level magi"

 "A-Are you sure sir?" the Counter lady swept Aiden with her eyes.

 No matter how she looked at him, she didn't believe he had strength comparable to a 2-star Omega Warrior level magi.

 Magis were divided into various levels, depending on their strengths.

 The Omega Warrior was the first level and it was further classified into 3-Stars Omega Warrior level, 2-stars Omega Warrior level, 1-star Omega Warrior level and Ultra star Omega Warrior level.

 "Are you telling me what to do now?" Mr Xavier frowned with displeasure.

 "N-Not at all!" the counter lady hurriedly prepared the booking roster.

 "Would you like to place a bet on the match?" she asked.

"What are the odds?"

 "Let me see.." the counter lady read through the bookings roster for a bit before responding.

 "3/1"

 "Then, I'll bet five thousand on his win"

 After making the payment for the bet, Mr. Xavier was given a betting slip. If he ever won the bet, he would be able to withdraw his loot by using the loot.

 "Your confidence in me is quite scary and at the same time suspicious. Do you know me from anywhere before?" Aiden asked as they made their way towards backstage.

 "Well, what can I say? I sort of find you unique and interesting" Mr Xavier smiled mysteriously.

 "Unique huh?"

 Arriving at the backstage, Aiden selected the gimmick he was going to use for the battle match.

 The outfit consisted of an elbow length fingerless gloves, a red headband with a skull emblem, body suit made out of latex and combat boots.

 "You look amazing. The gimmick suits you well" Mr. Xavier praised Aiden after he had finished suiting up.

"Tch. Too tight" Aiden complained.

 But he had to admit that the outfit also made him feel lighter.

 "Next Match! Bloody Kiddie Vs Macho Steel!" the sound of the announcer's voice rang, being amplified by a mega phone.

 "That's your cue kid!" Mr Xavier pushed Aiden out of the backstage.

 "Hm. Let me see what you are capable of.. kid with no sign of beta force" Mr Xavier mumbled, a knowing  glint flashing past his eyes.

.

.

 "Bloody Kiddie? what kind of sick name is that?" Aiden mumbled as he jogged towards the direction from where the announcer's voice originated from.

 Along the way, he passed by a combatant, ridden with bloody wounds as he got wheeled away on a stretcher.

 "Tsk" Aiden licked his lips as his eyes shone with a mad glint.

 -[Your Battle intent grows..]

-[71/100]

 When Aiden arrived at the battle ring, he saw his opponent waiting for him, arms folded as he enjoyed the praises of the cheering crowds.

 Macho Steel.. living up to his name, his opponent was 12fts tall, with bulgy meaty muscles.

Sporting bronze tanned skin that glistened with sweat, Aiden felt like as if he was facing off against a war god.

 But strangely, he didn't feel any fear. Instead, he felt a strong desire for battle.

-[Your Battle intent grows..]

-[87/100]

 When the audiences saw Aiden entering the ring, a string of booings ensued.

 "What is a kid like that doing there??'

 "Kid! step out of that ring. It isn't a playground!"

 "Is there even a need to watch this? Macho Steel is going to pulverize that kid in an instant!"

 Hearing the degenatory remarks flying around, Aiden smirked devilishly.

 "Wipe that grin on your face, are you looking down on me?" Macho Steel roared as he dashed at Aiden.

 For every mighty step he took, the ring trembled.

 "Eat my fist! I don't even have to use my mojo on a wet nosed brat like you!' he swung his big fist at Aiden's head, with the intent to smash it into blood patty.

 Many of the audiences licked their lips, anticipating the scene of Macho Steel, pulverizing Aiden's head.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as they pictured.

 Pa!

 To their greatest shock, Aiden caught the meaty fist with his small palm, that same devilish smirk on his lips.

 "Is that so?"

 Aiden twisted his arm, snapping the arms of Macho Steel into an irregular shape.

 "Uwaaa!" the hefty man staggered, while screaming miserably.

 "Eat mine too!" Aiden pounced on him, raining fast punches on his chest.

 Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow!

 At that moment, nothing but Macho Steel's chest mattered to Aiden. He felt a strange kind of exhilaration as he inflicted damage to his opponent.

 It was an addictive sensation. He just couldn't get enough of it. He wanted more. More!?

 "Stop!!" the announcer's loud voice rang in his hear. Due to being a Vampire, the sound was amplified a hundred fold, vibrating strongly in his head.

 Only through this did he manage to stop.

 Looking down, he saw that Macho Steel's chest was all but a disgusting mush, with all his intestines and organs exposed.

-[Congratulations. Host has completed side mission: Defeat First Contender]

-[Host will recieve the below rewards..]

-[1 skill]

-[5 Blood drachmas]

 However, Aiden was too frightened to even check the system's notification. Staring at his blood stained fist and the bloodied corpse underneath him, he couldn't make out a coherent thought.

 "I-I did this?"

.

.

 "You were really wild out there. Was that the side effect of your mojo?" Mr. Xavier laughed as soon as Aiden returned back to backstage.

 "Here, clean yourself up. It's gross to look at" he removed a white handkerchief from his trouser pocket, tossing it at Aiden.

 "I've done what you asked for. Isn't it time for you to keep to your end of the bargain?" Aiden skillfully evaded the question, while wiping off the blood on his fist and face.

 "Smart kid. I won't pry on your secret though"

 "As for the surprise, what do you think of yourself becoming a student at Nightshade Royale Academy?" Mr. Xavier grinned.

    "Nightshade Royal Academy?" Aiden repeated with skpectism. "Tsk. Tsk. It is an Academy owned by the Nightshade Country" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Say what?!" Aiden almost had an heart attack. "You aren't kidding withme right?" he asked suspiciously. In this current world, there were cities, counties, States, dukedoms, kingdoms, empires and continents. The Sentry Association was an organization that had jurisdiction over all Magis. Their counterpart were the Mercenary Fraternity, that often lived in the shadows. However, there also existed noble and royal power that ruled over their own regions in the world. Starting from the bottom were the Lords. They often ruled over hamlets and villages. Then were the Barons who ruled over towns. Viscounts were nobles and rulers of cities. Counts were nobles who ruled over counties. Earls were nobles ranked higher than Counts. They ruled over states. Dukes ruled over Dukedoms, Kings ruled over Countries, Emperors ruled over Continents.As for

    "This is the Academy?" Aiden mumbled as he alighted down from a black limousine. The sheer size and decor of the Academy's building was beyond anything he could ever imagine. Taking a look at the premises, he noticed that all the students came in expensive looking cars. From the grandeur of their movement and the dignified air surrounding them, even an infant could tell that they were all nobles. "Pheew. I can do this" Aiden took a breather as he sauntered towards the school building. At the lobby area, there were four platforms with plaques besides them. Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior "Hm. According to my card. I am at the class D for the Freshmen Students" Aiden mumbled to himself as he followed a group who were headed for the platform with the *Freshmen* plaque besides it. "Though, I wonder what the platform is used for?" he mumbled with curiosity. As if answering his question, a male noble amongst the group stepped on the platform.As soon as he did, the platform got

    Not long after Nyx departure, a new teacher walked into the Class D. It was a female with dark spots underneath her eyes. Her lips were covered in black lip gloss and she was a devilish beauty. Comparing her to the maid at Xavier's house, Aiden shook his head. When speaking of natural assets although the Teacher before him was slightly above average, she didn't come close. "Good morning Class D! I am Lisa, your Geography Teacher!" "Oh. She has a beautiful voice. Not bad" Aiden mumbled to himself. "Hm.. Let's begin our classes then. Today's topic is going to be the distinction of regions.." Lisa began her teaching, which she did for over thirty minutes. If not for her beautiful face, many students (mostly guys) would've dozed off because of just how boring the Geography class was. Very soon, Geography class period ended and the next teacher took over. This time, it was a slender man with delicate skin and feminine features.When the females in the class saw this teacher, their e

    Aiden couldn't believe what he just heard. Xavier was the Country's protector?! "So, are you related to him in some way?" Charlotte asked. "Something like that. Hm? how did you figure that out? don't tell me your mojo is telepathy?" Aiden gave Charlotte a wary look. "Pft. If I had such a mojo, I would be in Class A, not Class D" Charlotte giggled. "As for how I did it, I kinda compared you both skin tone. Not to mention that you both have a dangerous vibe around you" Charlotte explained. "Ohh" Aiden nodded. Grabbing the syrup can, he splayed it on the french fries before tossing it into his mouth. -[Ping! You have ingested a harmful substance!] As soon as the system sent this warning, Aiden felt a sharp pain in his stomach. It felt like a scorpion was clawing at his guts. "Ugh!" he groaned as he held his stomach in pain, sweat trickling down his face. "Are you okay?" Charlotte sharply noticed the look of pain in his face. "I.. I think I ate something poisonous" Aiden stutte

    "Mold beta to connect to our mojo?" the Students murmured to themselves. "Watch" The Mojo Analysis Teacher brought out his palm. "Fire gauntlet!" A burst of brilliant flames wrapped his hands, reaching his elbow. "This is an hex I casted. My mojo is pyrokinesis or flames manipulation. By molding and connecting the beta force to my mojo, I was able to cast this hex" The flame gauntlet dispersed. The Teacher continued. "However for novices like you with limited amounts of beta force, casting hexes would easily sap away most of your beta force since you still haven't learnt control. And when that happens, your opponent will exploit such an opening to take you down. So it is advised to save your hexes for last, when you are confident in taking down your opponent with that single hex" "Now. To connect your beta force to your mojo recquires meditation. An intense one at that. Picture your beta force as a bowl of soap and your mojo as a sponge""Then try visualizing that sponge soaking

    Aiden stared at his clothes which were now soaked with the blood of the shriveled up corpses lying around. Lick. He moved his tongue, licking up the blood stained on his upper lips. For strange reasons, the blood taster sweeter than even the sweetest gelato he had ever eaten. Staring at his blood soaked clothes, he groaned. Anytime his bloodlust grew, a bloodbath always followed after. He had to think of a way to deal with his huge apetite to drink blood or risk alerting the Sentries or the LEA.

    "Talent often refers to the potential of a Magi's mojo. Starting from the bottom are.. Pawn tier talent, Rook tier talent, knight tier talent, Bishop tier talent, Queen tier talent, King tier talent and Demonic talent" "Just like it's name, a Magi possesing a mojo with pawn tier talent has a limit of only mastering two hexes in their life time. Not only that, their rate of comprehension is pitifully low, as such it is very rare to see a Magi of such a calibre surpass the Omega King rank. It's like waiting for it to snow during june" Charlotte giggled. "As for Magis with mojo having rook tier talent, the maximum amount of hexes they can master in their lifetime is three. Their rate of comprehension is slightly above those with pawn tier talents and their cultivation limit is the Gamma Lord rank" "Compared to the first two categories, those with Knight tier talents can master the maximum of six hexes. Their rate of comprehension is average and their cultivation limit is the Delta Warr

"Then I look forward to your performance". . . "Does your mojo really have demonic tier talent?" Charlotte hurriedly asked Aiden as soon as he arrived besides her. "I think so. Although I'm not really certain" Aiden replied. "Now that you all have introduced yourselves and what kind of mojos you posses, it is time for me to move over to the next segment, connecting to your mojo" Nyx said, waving his hands, causing a stack of booklets to materialize from thin air. "These are Hex Tomes" He introduced. "Hex Tomes?" the Students mumbled, it was obvious that the word sounded foreign. "It is always said that the mojo of every Magi is distinct, yet there are many cases of Magis possesing mojos like fire manipulation, ice manipulation and the likes. Doesn't that contradict the popular saying?"The students of Cla

    As soon as Zoram dropped this sentence, he made his move disappearing from his current position, only to appear above Marie as he slammed the Soul Banner towards her head.. "Shit!" Marie tried using her base Vampiric speed to dodge the sudden blow, only to realize that the soul barrier seemed to project an invisible pressure that not only possessed a powerful concussive force that was threatening to crush all the bones in her body, it also possessed an effect on his psyche, instilling a deep rooted fright in her. However Marie was once a powerful Soldier back during her time at the Red Sharks gang. Although she could ignore the effect on her psyche, the bone crushing effect caused her speed to reduce by twenty percent. Bang! Marie had barely escaped the attack range of the Soil Barrier when it finally landed, creating a powerful fissure on the ground, the rebound force knocking her into the air.

It was an horrifying sight to see. "Filth. Next time you'd do well not to mess with my Feind race. Many of you think that we are just some peddlers with shallow parlor tricks that allows us to raise the dead" Zoram sneered as he slowly walked towards Marie. As for those from the other races, they tactfully chose to distance themselves from him. Perhaps it was due to the long time they spent in this Hidden Realm with meridian blocking chains, but memories of the evil methods of the Feind race were finally begin to surface. "My Feind race cultivates Necro force.. the most extreme yin of all forces in existence. Reviving the dead is just one of the shallowest demonstration of what we can do.

Their eyes were literally spitting out flames! The Elves were known to be the most prideful of all the seven races. They were known to take pride in three things.. their privileges, their strength and their looks. Now that Marie dared ridicule their looks, it was akin to signing up a death warrant.

"Weak" "What the hell do you think you are doing?!" it was only after the corpse with a gaping hole on the chest collapsed to the ground, did the crowd finally come to their senses. Whether it was Marie's sudden arrival or her sudden murder, it came completely unexpectedly and caught them all by surprise. "Do you want to give it a go?" Marie grinned, exposing her fangs.

    "What do you think you are doing eh? It isn't time for a break yet!" One of the Silver Rangers in charge of supervising the laborers remarked in the native dialect of the Winged Panda Man race while he swung down the whip he held. Whallop! A dry shriek rang out as the victim's knees buckled, kissing the rocky surface of the floor. It was actually a Humanoid with a large potato nose and a wide mouth with webbings on his hands and feet. The Myraid Beast race member was about to stand up on his feet when the Silver Ranger ruthlessly swung his whip down. However before the whip could land on its target, a pale skinned hand caught it in place, causing a few droplets of blood to slip past their palm. "How dare you!!" the Silver Ranger became enraged upon seeing a new face dare oppose his discipline. Ignoring his remarks, Red Rose gave the end of the whip she was holding a powerful tug, forcibly drawing the Silver Ranger closer to her before landing a powerful kick on his chest, c

This particular Winged Panda Man was actually one of the Elders who were in support of Prince Eragon. However the current Elder lacked the regal air displayed during the strategy meeting that had just concluded. "Yes" the Elder replied in a robotic manner as he immediately stood still. Nodding, Red Rose eyes took a shade of red as she revealed her sharp crystalline looking fangs, immediately sinking them into the neck of the Elder. Gulp. Gulp. Gulp. The body of the Elder trembled from how intense Red Rose was sucking his blood, however Red Rose strong grip held him in place. At first everything was alright, but the more Red Rose greedily gulped down his blood, the more the flesh on his body began to shrivel. Just as the Elder was about to become a sack of dry skin and bones, a voice rang from behind Red Rose, interrupting the young Vampire's feedin

    "We are here" Nimara who had been at the vanguard suddenly stopped walking as she shut her eyes briefly in concentration before opening them with a nod. "You mean to tell me that the infamous Ancestral Tomb is hidden inside this.. ordinary looking pond?" Oge coughed sarcastically. They were currently in the middle of nowhere, trapped within a wide expanse of soil. A few distance away was a pond.. running with muddy, dirty water. Ignoring her comment, Nimara gave Prince Eragon a look. "Only the bloodline of the Chief can open the Ancestral Tomb" "Ohh" Aiden suddenly slapped his palms on his forehead like he just recalled something. "Everything makes perfect sense now..!" At first Aiden was confused when he learnt about the Ancestral Tombs because things weren't just adding up. If Nimara was General Jazz queen, why was it that he was yet to enjoy the benefit of the Ancestral Tombs. Now Aiden finally got this answer puzzling him at the back of his mind.

    It was unknown who let the cat out of the bag, but two explosive news rocked the whole Hidden Realm.. The first was that, General Jazz was still in a secluded retreat and the second was actually more explosive than it's predecessor.. The Crown Prince was nearly assassinated within the castle walls!!! No matter how General Jazz loyalist tried suppressing this news, they couldn't stop the several tongues wagging within the shadows. For a long time, the mere mention of General Jazz was like a butcher blade hanging over many of their throats. He was a tyrannical figure who wasn't merciful when it came to punishing those not on his side. Unfortunately no matter how dissatisfied they were, nobody dared revolt. However with the release of these two explosive news, the whole Hidden Realm experienced a transformation. "You shouldn't be parading the streets.
