Chapter 138: You Will be Accompanying My Son
Rex went down from his room and go to the Training Hall, Adhara said that Edward is waiting for him there.
Many people glance at him but he ignored it.
Not long after, Rex arrived at the Training Hall.
‘It’s been so long I’ve been here’, Rex thought but then, he saw many people gathering in the Training Hall which makes the place crowded.
The students of Ochyra University are all gathered in the Training Hall, even the non-Awakened students are gathering here with excited expressions.
‘Is there an event here?’, Rex thought, the Training Hall is usually not this crowded.
Rex went inside the Training Hall, the students make way for him when they saw Rex’s face.
All of them including the non-Awakened knows Rex by now, he’s the pride of Ochyra University but unknown to them Rex is almost decided to move to Faraday University.
He then looks through the crowd searching for Edward but then, “Look! He won again! Oh my god, he can even beat Fred!”
Hearing this, Rex glance to his left and saw Edward in the arena.
Edward’s arena gathered a bunch of students that are watching him, he’s currently fighting against a non-Awakened with a bald head.
The bald head guy tries to penetrate Edward’s defense to no avail, his defense is rock solid.
But Rex notices that the bald guy’s movements are not sluggish like the other Awakened he fights before, it seems the bald guy trained in close combat for a little bit.
Edward didn’t use any enhancement, he’s matching the power of his opponent to make the brawl pure skill exchange.
He then kicks the bald guy sending him outside of the sand arena, “Who’s next?”, he said with a smile.
Edward scans the surroundings but then his eyes landed on Rex, he taunts Rex by flaunting his fingers but Rex denied it.
“Let’s go, we got things to do”, Rex said.
Seeing that Rex is unwilling to spar, Edward sent a mocking look to Rex.
He wanted to spar against Rex who is a match for him but Rex didn’t have the time, Edward then jumped out of the arena and leave with him.
They both went out of the Training Hall under the students gaze,
Edward’s dominating hand-to-hand combat skills become unimpressive when they knew he knows Rex, all of the people around Rex seem to be powerful people.
It’s the university’s public secret to not mess with any people around Rex.
“Here’s the address, go there and tell Kyran that you will be training him by my orders”, Rex said, he already sent the address to Edward via chat.
Edward looks at his phone and said, “What do you want him to do specifically?”
“I want him to be able to scout places and gather information stealthily. That kid is gifted, so it won’t be hard to train him”, Rex said.
Hearing this, Edward wanted to ask how’s the kid gifted but Rex intervenes, “You’ll see”
After telling Edward about what Rex wants, he wants to leave and go to the Task Hall but then he stopped.
Rex thinks for a moment, ‘Should she just train? I think that’s better’
He then went back to Edward who is currently looking at the address, he then said, “Oh can I ask you one more favor?”
Edward got surprised, “I’ll throw you to the military again if it’s hard”, he joked.
Rex chuckles lightly before he said, “Remember Adhara? Just give her a training routine for her dagger-wielding skills, it’ll be better if you train her once in a while”
“Fine! But you owe me the most expensive steak after this”, Edward demanded.
After leaving Edward,
Rex went back to the room after he gets a mission in the Task Hall,
The Task Hall staff is weirded out by Rex taking peak rank three missions, but Rex does this based on experience.
The mission Rex takes from the Task Hall is to eradicate a horde of Kobold and Blue Lizards that are attacking a level four-city, it’s only a peak rank three mission so Rex will probably manage to handle it alone.
Because of the missions before, the higher-rank mission is too dangerous for Rex.
He plans to steadily level up while honing his Awakened skills, he needs to be strong enough to do the plan for the Platchi.
“Adhara, I’ll be going alone doing mission”, Rex said.
Hearing this, Adhara widened her eyes as she finds it sudden, “I’m tired but I can still help you, you don’t need to exclude me from this”
“It’s not that, you’re training to use daggers right?”, Rex asks.
Adhara nodded her head, she’s indeed trying to hone her dagger skills.
Then, Rex continues, “Well you should learn from Edward, he will be an excellent teacher for you rather than fighting brute Supernatural”
The reason for Rex saying this to Adhara is of course to make Adhara become stronger, but that’s not all.
He also wanted to spam peak rank three missions to raise his level, it will be more time-efficient if he does it rather than asking Adhara and Kyran to help.
They’re not strong enough, so it’s better to let them train first while he grinds some exp.
It’s not that Adhara and Kyran will level up too, so it’ll be better for them to prepare their skills for the upcoming event that Rex thinks will happen soon.
After saying that, Adhara finally agrees after some argument.
She then dresses and leaves the room after Rex told him to meet Edward in the house he bought, he also doesn’t forget to tell her to train hard because he needs her.
This makes Adhara secretly happy,
Rex then lies on the bed, he will go for the missions after he scans through the shop.
He wanted to find any spells he might need but even after scrolling for a while, he doesn’t find any spells that he needs.
He then just bought a breathing technique for Adhara and Kyran.
These breathing techniques are Swift Gale Breathing Technique and Deluge Shadow Breathing Technique, both are mid-rank breathing techniques.
Rex also didn’t forget to buy for himself, he bought a high-rank breathing technique.
It is called the Bulwark of Supernatural Breathing Technique and it belongs to the Basic Moon Technique category, which means that Rex can use it on any night.
The breathing technique will give the user an anti Supernatural aura that will reduce their power by 5%, and also 10,000 Exp per hour.
Rex really likes this breathing technique, it’ll give him a cutting edge against the Supernatural.
Added with his Alpha Intimidation, that will give them a 35% decrease in power!
The great thing about the breathing technique is that the target doesn’t need to have lower mental stats than him, it will affect any kind of Supernatural regardless of their power.
He spent about 12 thousand gold for all of that, but he doesn’t feel any remorse.
After that, Rex packs his clothes and other things before he went out again to do the mission.
Rex goes to the house he bought to drop the breathing technique to Adhara and Kyran, he wants them to use it immediately to be stronger faster.
Arriving at the place, Rex saw Edward is teaching Kyran.
Adhara on the other hand is not here,
Edward said that she went to a training place to try out the training routine he gave her, so she will not be back until later.
“Kyran, come here”, Rex said signaling Kyran to go to the other room.
Edward looks at Rex, “Class is in session, please don’t disturb my student”, he joked.
Hearing this, Rex felt helpless.
He wanted to just leave the book here but he’s afraid that Edward will read it, that might happen because Edward got curious easily.
Rex contemplated for a while before he said, “I’m leaving for a mission, see you guys later”
But before he can leave, Edward called out to him and said, “What about the other kid? Should I teach him too?”
Rex face-palm himself, he forgets about Ryze.
“For now, just let him join you and Kyran”, Rex said before he leaves the house.

Meanwhile, on the Black Tiger Guild office.
Duncan is lighting up his cigarette, his usual angry and stoic expression becomes relaxed nearing happy.
He looks like he’s in a great mood, the way he plays with the lighter shows it.
“President, we manage to pull another one into our sides. It won’t be long before they ask for a parley”, a guy said from the sides.
Hearing this, Duncan laughs loudly.
The success in overturning Sullivan Family’s business cracks a smile on his face, he finally manages to push the Sullivan back.
Many of his cash deposit got attacked by the Sullivan, it makes him fuming in anger.
But now, the table has been turned.
The Sullivan Family is overwhelmed by the sheer number of Awakened under the Platchi family, they also use the Black Tiger’s Guild members to overwhelm them.
Of course, all of this happened in secret.
None of the legal authorities know about this, the red wing that is happening between the Sullivan and the Platchi is completely a secret.
“With the success of fending off the FAA about the white assassins, and the success against the Sullivan. Our peace will be near, and it all thanks to you”, the guy said, he sends praises to Duncan who looks like he enjoyed it.
Duncan smiles triumphantly before he asks, “How’s the mercenary sent to Rex?”
He looks at the guy in front of him while blowing smoke out of his mouth, he’s confident that the mercenary finished what they’re tasked with.
The guy stutter under Duncan’s piercing eyes, he suddenly looks nervous.
Duncan notice this before his face darkened, “How many did they send for Rex? I told Leon to not settle it if there’s no mid-rank five in it”
“There’re…There’re only mid-rank four in it…”, The guy said meekly.
Hearing this, Duncan intertwines his hands together with a frown, “Why didn’t they send more powerful Awakened?”
“The Anarchy Mercenary said that it’s a waste of Awakened power to kill a kid, they said that Rex is only an early rank four so they sent a mid-rank four to kill him”, the guy explained.
Duncan’s body jolted, he then waves his hand and said, “Call Leon here”
Hearing Duncan’s order, the guy immediately left and call Leon without wasting any second fearing that Duncan will be angry.
Leon came inside the room before he kneels in front of Duncan.
Seeing Leon openly showcase that he’s in the wrong, Duncan stands up from his seat and approaches Leon who jolted every time he hears Duncan’s steps.
He puts his head down, he doesn’t want to look at Duncan’s piercing eyes.
Duncan squat in front of him with a cigarette in his hand, “How can you fail such an easy job? Can’t you convince them to send a mid-rank five?”
Leon didn’t answer, he started to sweat.
“Hey, I’m asking you a question”, Duncan said while poking the guy’s chest with the burnt side of his cigarette.
He then continues, “You said that I can consider it done, but what now? Rex is still roaming out there undisturbed while MY SON! LYING IN THE DIRT BECAUSE OF HIS HANDS!”
Duncan shouted right in front of Leon, he kicks Leon away crashing to the wall.
He then tidied his clothes, he looks at Leon who is lying on the ground in pain before he said, “You said that it will be done, then you will kill him yourself”
“From now on, you’re not a part of the Platchi”, Duncan said.
Hearing this, Leon looks up to meet Duncan’s eyes and saw Duncan smiling meaningfully to him, “Yes president! I will certainly take out that kid myself and bring his head to you!”
“That’s the spirit, but just so you know”, Duncan said while sitting back in his chair.
He then continued while pointing at Leon with a smile, “If you fail, you will be accompanying my son along with your families”
