Chapter 239: Breakingthrough in One Go
Rex sigh helplessly after realizing that he just got trapped,
But when he’s about to exit the bathroom, a notification appears in front of him.
<Sudden Quest!>
<Evelyn Luc Trap!>
In exchange for information about the Atkins Family, the user has been outwitted by Evelyn Luc. Complete the mission given by Evelyn Luc to avoid further complications that will drown on the user for not completing it.
Quest Reward: 10,000,000 Exp, 500 High-Grade Lightning Stone, Lightning Rune.
Looking at this, Rex clicks his tongue in displeasure.
The system bold the word ‘outwitted’ as if the system is trying to mock Rex, and it definitely is working based on Rex’s annoyed expression.
After getting out of the bathroom, Rex crashes his body to the bed beside Adhara.
Talking to Evelyn before takes a toll on his mentality, the way she teases him seductively drains his energy rapidly just like a succubus.
Even now Rex still breathes heavily, Evelyn is just too stimulating.
Added with the mock from the system, Rex felt even worse.
“What are you doing?”, Rex asks after seeing Adhara playing with her phone.
Adhara is rocking her legs back and forth while looking at her phone happily, it makes Rex curious because she rarely does this.
She realized that Rex is talking to him before she replied, “Nothing!”, she said while hiding her phone.
Looking at this, Rex becomes even more suspicious.
But Rex is too tired to attend his suspicion,
Rex grabs Adhara’s waist and pulls her towards him, he then leans his head on her chest before closing his eyes lazily.
Getting pulled by Rex and noticing Rex’s weird behavior, Adhara is surprised.
“What happened to you?”, Adhara asks with a blushed face, but her slender fingers still play with Rex’s hair bringing a comfortable feeling to him while hugging him.
But then, Adhara remember something, “You didn’t go to Rosie did you?”
“No”, Rex answered lazily.
He then continues, “I got an invitation to attend the 25 Golden Crest banquet, and it bugs my mind because I’m not one of them”
“Reed Family invited you?”, Adhara asks.
Rex then replied, “Yeah, and I just can’t help but feel suspicious of this”
“It’s going to be okay, you’re Rex Silverstar so there’s nothing to worry about”, Adhara said while keep caressing Rex’s hair.
She kept saying good things to Rex until eventually a smile crept on Adhara’s face.
Adhara saw Rex is asleep soundly in her embrace, it seems that the weight from his mind is tiring him to this state.
Three days passed,
Edward is still sick lying in his room,
His body is still in a weakened state and his well-being is deteriorating.
Adhara already visits him two days ago and told Rex about his condition, but Rex is currently in rigorous training and he promise that he will take a look at Edward after finishing his training.
He’s been disconnecting from the outside world these past days.
After talking to Evelyn and talking to Adhara, Rex felt wrong,
With so many things that needed his attention, he just waste a day slacking.
That is why he decided to do this, he will train to his utmost limit to make up for him lazying around and not training.
Because of the urgency of all of the problems that he had, he need to get stronger fast or at least reach the sixth rank before he do any of his plans.
Mastering Chandler’s technique filled his time, and he progressed fast.
Rex stayed in the quiet room inside the training ground ever since he got back from talking with Evelyn, the matters kept pressing him and he can’t be too long to get stronger.
These past three days have been non-stop training,
With the physique he has added with being a Werewolf, Rex can train without sleep and even barely feel any mental fatigue.
It’s a huge advantage from the others, and Rex used it to his full extent.
BLITZ!
BOOM!
“Yes!!”, Rex punches the air in excitement.
He manages to reach perfection in Chandler’s technique, he can change the course of lightning mana from far away and even create two lightning strikes at the same time.
Thanks to the Learning Pill, he felt more familiar with the lightning mana.
Rex even got a new understanding of his black lightning,
The disturbance property of his black lightning is astonishing, he manages to create a small shockwave when the lightning strike he created hits its targets.
This black shockwave is like a flashbang, but it only affects the mana in its surrounding.
After feeling confident in using the technique, Rex can now begin the next process, ‘I know that the system told me that I won’t die, but it’s still better to be prepared first’, he thought.
He clenched his fists a couple of times before sitting in a meditative position.
Rex felt that he’s ready to step the fifth rank ladder, and he also has enough resources to achieve peak fifth rank instantly or even sixth rank.
Swoosh…
Subtle wind gushed out of Rex’s body,
The insides of his body are filled with lightning mana, he also gathers as much mana to use it to make his first media.
With the goals of capacitating Devo the Gatekeeper spirit who is a spirit that lives for more than a dozen millennia, and Rex needs to gather as much as he can.
If any normal students or Awakened feel the mana inside of him, they might think that it’s too much and he can contain any spirit with half the mana he currently has.
But the system already told him his goals,
In order to reach the sixth rank and contain Devo the Gatekeeper, Rex needs to gather a week worth of mana to create one media.
The system told him specifically to gather a week worth of mana,
People with high-affinity elements like Rex and the others have multiple times absorbing rate of mana than other Awakened, it almost makes them have unending mana.
It’s basically a cheat code in this time,
And for the system to say that Rex who has a high affinity to lightning to gather mana for a week, that shows how powerful Devo the Gatekeeper is.
It will basically make normal Awakened gather months or even years to create one media in order to sustain Devo the Gatekeeper.
NGIING!!
The high-grade lightning stones inside the inventory got summoned outside.
Dozens of those lightning stones dropped around Rex like rocks as they started to glow, the lightning mana that came out got sucked into Rex’s body instantly.
BLITZ!!
Cracked of lightning started to envelop Rex’s body,
The terrifying amount of mana inside Rex’s body then gathers onto his right shoulder.
Rex’s shoulder glows as a black circle envelops his right shoulder, cracks of lightning also decorate the black circle as Rex’s expression changed.
“Rrrghh”, Rex grunted feeling the pain start to kick in.
With the amount of mana inside him right now, he still struggles to control it.
Even by mastering Chandler’s technique to control mana from far away, it is still hard to do with this much mana that he’s currently controlling.
It’s five times the amount of mana to use Sky Rupture spell.
The glow on his right shoulder kept getting brighter and brighter, it also becomes bigger the more mana Rex manage to concentrate on it.
It goes on for an hour, the suction voice and also the glow created becomes even more intense.
By this time, the black circle is already turned into a hollow circle that looks almost like a black hole and it is throbbing uncontrollably.
Until suddenly,
SWOOSH!!
Just right after the last strand of mana Rex has gathered on his right shoulder, a lightning shockwave exploded from his right shoulder.
Some of the chaotic black lightning even zaps the ground around Rex.
The walls, sandy ground, or even the equipment around Rex got charred.
If one was to enter Rex’s room, then they will be shocked by the aftermath of the black lightning that looks exactly like a battlefield.
As if there’s a huge battle undergone inside here.
Rex then opens his eyes as his eyes turn black, he can feel that the first media that he created is a success judging by the immense energy he felt on his right shoulder.
‘So this is a media, I can feel an overwhelming amount of mana from it’, Rex thought.
After successfully creating the first media, Rex stands up.
Nothing much has changed aside from the immense energy Rex felt, and it seems that it will only take substantial effect when Rex reached the mid-fifth rank.
With that, Rex kept going intending to reach peak fifth rank before the end of the day.
Meanwhile,
Inside an underground canyon,
The canyon is vast and deep, moist wind added with the rocky terrain makes it easy for anyone to slip and fall.
But there are no ordinary people here,
Countless Awakened are inside this canyon as it is a newly found canyon, signs with a number on it are put in front of each cave inside the canyon.
The last time Rex is here, only half a mile of this canyon is lit but now it’s lit up brightly.
Almost all of the caves are signed, and the higher number on the sign the less Awakened gather to go inside of it.
Number 1,2, and 3 is the most popular caves,
These numbers clearly indicate the power of the mutated animal inside of the cave, and it makes sense for the higher number to have fewer people.
In front of one of the caves is Kyran,
Kyran is currently walking towards a cave excitedly, he just become an Awakened, his dream came true because of Rex.
With the power of the Dark, Kyran determines to get used to this element as soon as possible.
He then stopped in front of a cave with the number four sign in front of it, and when he wanted to get inside, a hand tapped his shoulder.
Kyran looks back to see who taps his shoulder and finds a group of three Awakened.
“Are you going inside this cave?”, a woman that seems to be the leader asks with a smile, she doesn’t seem to have bad intentions.
Kyran then replied, “Yes, I will appreciate it if you guys let me have this cave”
Hearing this, the woman widened her eyes in shock, “You’re going to go inside alone? You’re so young and are you a Fire Elementalist?”
Kyran shakes his head making the woman sigh,
“You can’t fight what you can’t see, why don’t you come with us”, the woman invited.
Although the canyon s lit up brightly, the caves are not as it is completely engulfed in darkness.
But hearing what the woman said, Kyran looks at them weirdly, “I can see clearly and I don’t want to join you guys, so if you’ll excuse me”
After saying that, Kyran went inside the cave even when the woman called out to him.
By being a Werewolf, Kyran has the same night vision ability and his senses are very sharp making him confident in fighting alone.
Kyran walks inside the cave slowly,
His footsteps reverberated lightly through the cave, and he can already feel the presence of the mutated animals inside this cave right after he enter the cave.
Tap…Tap…Tap…
While walking cautiously, Kyran already activates his new element.
Adhara taught him how to meditate and gather mana, and now with his high affinity to dark elements, he reached the second rank easily.
In just a couple of breaths, Kyran reached the second rank like a monster.
Because of that, he also already manages to activate his elemental aura to enhance his physical attributes further.
Kyran glance left and right cautiously, When suddenly,
HISS!!
A three meters long mutated black scorpion appeared in front of Kyran,
Its steel black body bulge with muscle, claws as big as a human’s body, and the scorpion’s tail are long and thick with a deadly stinger on its tip that drips with a green substance.
Even third or fourth rank Awakened will be wary of this scorpion, but not Kyran.
Instead of getting scared, a wide grin appears on Kyran’s mouth as his hands glow with dark energy that emits a chaotic nature.
The scorpion flinch upon feeling Kyran’s aura, but it didn’t back down.
CRACK!
Kyran leaped towards the scorpion with a maniac smile, there’s no sign of fear in his face but instead, a maniac smile is plastered on his face.
SWOOSH!
The scorpion attacks with its tail trying to pierce Kyran,
But Kyran with his powerful sense dodged them easily, he slipped past the scorpion guards and punch the scorpion’s back.
BAM!!
HISS!!
With just one punch, Kyran cracked the scorpion’s hard exoskeleton skin.
From just the look of things, Kyran got way stronger with his elemental aura.
The scorpion hisses in pain as its internal organ shook, but after that roar, Kyran can see that the exoskeleton is repairing itself.
It seems like the scorpion has healing ability, but then,
Kyran instinctively points his fingers towards the cracked exoskeleton, it’s like the mana inside of him is telling him what to do.
His finger glows with dark energy,
The dark energy shot forwards and hit the black scorpion, and upon getting hit the cracked exoskeleton stopped healing.
It’s as if something is stopping its healing ability.
HISS!!
The scorpion hisses and slams its body around in pain, it can feel some foreign energy enter its body and completely nullify its healing ability.
With that, the scorpion began to panic.
Looking at this, Kyran smiles evilly when he saw the scorpion wail in pain.
Kyran jumped and punch the same cracked exoskeleton again,
BAM!!
Upon receiving Kyran’s punch at the same spot, the scorpion’s got planted to the ground as its exoskeleton broke and punctured the scorpion’s inside, killing it instantly
Black blood splattered on Kyran’s face, but the wide grin didn’t fade from his face.
He then kneels on the ground right beside the scorpion’s carcass with heavy breaths, he seems to be surprised with the thing he did.
All of the things that he did during that fight are instinctive, it’s like someone told him to do that.
HISS!!
HISS!!
The roar of other scorpions can be heard from the inside, and Kyran stands back up again but his crazed expression is still there.
It’s as if he becomes different…
