Chapter 95: Kevin Luc
In the Black Tiger’s guild office,
Duncan is seating on his desks while attending to the piles of paper in front of him, he looks quite busy.
The sun is shining bright behind him and he felt refreshed when suddenly,
BAM!
“Dear!!”, a woman shouted after slamming the door open.
The secretary follows after she tries to hold her back to no avail, the woman’s face was in a panic as she strides towards Duncan.
Duncan raises his gaze, “What are you doing here, can’t you see I’m busy?”
He looks calm and collected even though last night he already knows the killer of his son Lucas, it is highly commendable patience that is pretty terrifying, to say the least.
The woman then said, “The Sullivan just sent us a Red Wing! They attack our cash stack in Aglaenira Church and left a red wing letter”
“Red Wing? But we didn’t even approach much less kill one of their family members”, Duncan replied with a frown, he didn’t know why they sent him a red wing.
The woman held her forehead, “They blame us for the death of Chris”
Hearing this, Duncan stands up abruptly with clear anger, “How dare they?! Do they really think I will be that petty? Killing their son because my youngest son is dead?!”
Just as they’re talking, the phone on Duncan’s desk rings.
“Sir, there’s a guest in the meeting room. It’s the Sullivan Family“
Duncan slammed the phone and stormed out of the room leaving the woman,
He arrives at the meeting room and saw five people wearing red formal clothes with a Hellcat crest on their chests, they are all sitting calmly on their respective seats but a terrifying chill can be felt from them.
The five of them send a cold glare at Duncan just after he arrives at the room.
“What is the meaning of this?! How can you think so lowly of me to do that”, Duncan shouted in anger, he felt his pride got hurt because of their accusation.
A woman with blonde hair stares at Duncan’s eyes coldly, she stands up slowly and said, “This is too far Duncan, our family has been a rival for years but I can’t believe you stoop this low”
Duncan points at the woman angrily, “I didn’t do such things! This is nonsense!”
Slap!
The woman threw a photo on the meeting table, “The evidence is pretty obvious, these are your doings”
Duncan grabbed the photo angrily, he looks at the photo and can’t help to get shocked, ‘What? Why are the assassins sent by Manuel are there?’, he thought.
The photo shows Chris’ corpses beside two white assassins.
“Stop your acting Duncan, although our family is weaker than yours, we will not stand by and let you trample on us. You did this, and we demand the red wing, ” the woman said, her words raise the room temperature.
She then squinted her eyes and said meaningfully, “I could’ve just killed one of your family but I decided to send the red wing, Blood will demand to be paid by blood”
Duncan was at a loss for words, he’s thinking about how can this happen.
Then suddenly a thought came to mind, ‘These white assassins are sent to test Rex, is this his doing?! He knows I’m after him so he decided to strike first?’
He grinds his teeth in anger, “Diana, you must believe me! it’s not me! It’s that kid Rex doing!”
Hearing this, Diana glance at Duncan in confusion, “Rex?”
“It’s the kid from Ochyra University! He also killed my son!”, Duncan said desperately, he was still shocked to realizing Rex’s scheme.
Diana chuckles, she then cast a mocking gaze, “That’s your best excuse? Unlike your son, my son is guarded by a rank five. Your excuse is pretty pathetic I must say”
After saying that, Diana signals to the others and left the room.
Family war is coming and the Sullivan is not backing out of this, leaving the room means they’re set in stone to have the Platchi family pay by blood.
Duncan was left speechless in the room, his hands burn with blue fire as he smashes the meeting room table to pieces.
BAM!!
“REX!!!”, he shouted frantically.

Back to Ring of Tenacity,
Rex is sitting on a metallic chair in the backroom waiting for them to be called, the others also minding their own business.
The lecturer brought back a device that shoots a blue hologram.
“Gather around, I will introduce you guys and explain the tournament”, the lecturer said as the students gather.
The opening is already started as they can hear the principal of Faraday University already started his speech.
Rex listen to the lecturer attentively,
“First let me introduce myself, I am Anthony that is in charge of managing students during outside tournaments like this. You can call me Tony, and I will be your instructor”, Tony briefly introduces himself.
Rex studied Tony and see that he’s quite good, he’s a mid-rank five Metal Elementalist.
He looks well built wearing a training uniform, black hair, a kind aura, and there is a grey rune on his cheeks.
Tony then continues, “The tournament consists of three stages, Mana Control, Supernatural Hunt, and Duel. In the first stage, you will be tested on your control of mana by making any weapon using purely mana. In the second stage, you guys will hunt down a Supernatural. And lastly, you will fight against Faraday University students one on one”
“We are not expecting this, we thought that the tournament will only be a one on one duel but this is unexpected”, he said while shaking his head.
They thought that it will only be a regular match but who knows it becomes like this.
Hera also added, “I tried to speak with them but they can’t change the tournament, so we must make do. They wanted us to look bad, so we must prove them wrong”
Hearing this, Rex frowns as he was not expecting to be like this.
The other representatives also complain about it, it was understandable for them to be mad.
The mana control is a bit new for Rex, he only relies on the system on using spells and he never fought an opponent that can utilize mana like this.
“Adhara, do you know how to do the Mana Control?”, Rex asks.
Adhara glance at Rex briefly and said calmly, “You need to be at least rank three, if you manage to enter rank three in one day which sounds impossible then I can help you not that I’m any good at it”
‘Seems like I need to use the mana charm elixir today, it’s embarrassing for me to be still in rank two’, Rex thought.
After Tony explains the tournament, he also gives each of the representatives a badge and a uniform.
Rex got the number 1 badge, ‘Are this based on the student’s ranking?’
The badge is black in color with a white number carved on it from 1 to 8, the uniform is almost similar to the lecturer’s uniform worn by Hera before.
Rex and the other representatives went to the changing room and change to their uniforms,
He looks at the mirror and was satisfied with the uniform’s design, it is white in color with a golden outline, a white cape with red color underneath it that flows down covering their right shoulder.
Rex went out of the changing room and saw his uniform is the only one that is sleeveless, ‘Huh, that’s thoughtful’
The female outfit has the same design but the stomach part, the male one is covered completely whilst the female one’s belly button area is exposed.
After they change their uniforms, they round up because they can hear the principal has already stopped his speech.
The representatives started to line up, they will be called out soon.
“Remember, the opening is only a stand out against Faraday University. You guys will not fight or even mock them, just wave to the crowd and come back”, Tony reminded.
Hearing this, the corner of Rex’s lips quirked up a little.
“Stop it, I know what you’re going to do”, Adhara whispers from the side, she feels Rex’s excitement.
Rex chuckles a little, “What? I’m only going to say hi”
Just as they’re waiting to be called, a guy on Rex’s other side tugged Rex’s elbow.
Rex glance at the guy who he has never seen before while raising his eyebrows in question.
“My name’s Brock, I’m a huge fan of yours. You’re my Role Model!”, he whispers excitedly, his eyes are containing stars as he looks at Rex.
Rex got stunned for a second, his brain can’t process the unexpectedness of Brock’s words.
Brock then continues, “After seeing your fight against Gregg, I got so pumped and manage to get a spot in here. Thanks to you, I started to work hard even though I don’t have much talent”
Rex felt bad to ignore him so he answers, “I’m glad I can be a good role model for you”
Hearing Rex’s answer, Broc got excited even more but suddenly,
“Please Welcome, the challenger!, the newborn tyrant!, the representatives of OCHYRA UNIVERSITY!!”
The announcer announces excitedly, the crowd is going wild because of it.
The metallic gate in front of them opens revealing a crowd of people from all sides, flashlights can be seen from all around the corner and the spotlight shines on their entrance.
Hera approach Rex, “Wear this, you will be asked some questions to hype the match. Just don’t say anything too stimulating”, she said while she puts on a wireless mic on Rex.
Rex nodded his head before Tony signals them to go in.
Rex and the other representatives of Ochyra University walk inside the Arena under everyone’s gaze, the crowd shouted as they burn with excitement.
They are lined up in three rows, and they started marching into the Arena.
Rex is located on the back of the line as they march inside, they march neatly with arched backs like elite students.
They stopped when they arrive in the middle of the big arena,
In front of them are rows of the first floor and the second-floor audience cheering for them, Rex can’t even open his eyes properly because of the flashlights flashing in front of him.
Rosie’s parents cheered loudly from the second floor, they’re proud of seeing Rosie in the arena.
The cameraman from different channels can also be seen in front of the audience, it seems the tournament will be broadcasted.
“These students clad in bright golden are the challenger!, Open your eyes wide and meet the ELITES OF OCHYRA UNIVERSITY!!”, the announcer said hyping the audience.
It becomes absolutely wild, even other universities are also watching this tournament of Ochyra University debut.
He then continues, “The Ochyra University representatives are lead by the rising star! The rightmost man that stood tall like a tyrant, let me introduce to you!!! REX SILVERSTAR!!”
“WOOOO!!!”
The crowd went crazy after they got introduced to Rex,
Although this is the first time Rex went to a tournament, normal people all over the Elpida Alliance always watch these kinds of tournaments. Some of them even came all the way from corners of Ratmawati City to Sector 2E just to watch the tournament.
Awakened is pretty rare amongst humans so it took a huge chunk of the entertainment market, newcomers like Rex are always welcomed by the citizens.
“The lecturer claims that he is unbeatable in Ochyra University, the pride of the newly made university that wanted to take the spotlight of all other universities!!”
Adhara on the side slaps Rex’s arm,
Rex’s arm got flung upwards making the crowd went crazier!
Rex glance at Adhara in annoyance but got a chuckle reply from her.
After the announcer finishes introducing each one of the representatives of Ochyra University, and the audience has quiet down, he then continues, “On my left, we will bring out the host of today’s tournament!”
“ARE YOU READY!!”, the announcer shouted.
The crowd cheers with excitement, it went even crazier than the excitement when Ochyra University went out before.
“PLEASE MAKE WAY! TO THE ELITE OF THE ELITE! the representatives of FARADAY UNIVERSITY!!”
Hearing this, Rex’s head turns to his right.
He was also excited to meet the students that will be fighting against him, especially Kevin.
The metallic gate on his right opened abruptly, white gas comes out of the gate when suddenly,
BOOM!!
A huge dark red fiery lion came out of the gate making the temperature rise, it was blazingly bright and there are eight people on top of the lion.
Different fireworks shot around the arena making the scene look epic.
“KEVIN!!”
“KEVIN!!”
“KEVIN!!”
The crowd cheer one name that makes the Faraday University famous, and the person that Rex is itchy to fight against.
SWOOSH!!
The lion circle around the arena before it leaped and landed just beside the line of Ochyra University,
A man leads the group down from the dark fiery lion, he then snapped his finger before the dark fiery lion vanished instantly.
Adhara leans towards Rex and said, “That’s Kevin, the Blazing Lion of Faraday University from the Luc Family. He’s the second child of the Luc just after Kayla his sister”
“That’s Kevin?”, Rex said while a smirk crept onto his face.
