Chapter 34 : Speed
"Where is the road leading outside?" Bright asked
"Use your full speed and scale the wall" the system answered
"Hmm...how am i meant to pull that off ?" Bright complained.
"Stay right there and expect miracle, ahh i blame the world for punishing me with this dry head of an host" the system exclaimed.
Bright..."_"
Bright made a stance and immediately bolted forward with immense speed making dust and the rocks and where he was previously standing to be blasted upward.
'Swoosh' 💨
He scaled the wall in a blink of an eye but due to lack of control he fell into another hole.
Bam
He crashed on the ground so hard but he didn't feel any of his bones breaking. He bolted upward again this time stopping a moment before he fall into another hole.
"Where is this place, isn't it a maze, what am i doing in a maze?" Bright thought out loud but no answer came.
Bright decided to use his full speed to ran over and jump over multiple walls, in less than two minutes he has crossed the maze which immediately crumbled.
"Wow, i could have being there and killed" he exclaimed
"Thank me for saving you" the system said
"No you didn't, i saved myself " Bright replied
'Ding'

"Nice still you got there lad" the blade said
"Let's go help my friends " Bright with a look of determination
'Swoosh' 💨
Bright came across multiple beasts, beasts below the mediate tier directly explode with his single punch. He had to learn to control his punches enough to keep the beasts crystals.
He then store them in his separate dimension, beasts at the peak mediate tier was killed by a wave of his hands which generates sharp slashes which cut them into half .
"I have gotten 50 crystals already just in an hour, this is so small" he thought to himself
Suddenly his sharp ears picked noise and he immediately tried to see what was going on, his eyes zoomed in and he could see students all gathered around battling a peak intermediate tier and a newly advance tier beast, his view was a little blurry due to the distance.
"Activate mystic eyes" Bright commanded
"When did you learn to command? " the system asked mockingly
"Are you activating it or not?" Bright questioned back.
"Really, then wait there" the system said and went silent.
"Snort...if i could activate the twin blades power without no help, why shouldn't i be able to activate my very own skill" Bright smirked
He focused and the skill got activated.
(Mystic eyes activated)
System....."_"
"Haha....i can't believe you could make the ancient system speechless." the blade laughed.
Bright eyes glowed a white and gold shade in both eyes and his sight zoomed on the fighting figure in the distance, he now has a clear view of who and what beast they are fighting.
"Isn't that the tentacled beast that almost caused my death? And the other one is an huge tortoise with multiple legs " Bright thought out loud.
"You actually died you know, i saved that life of yours" the system said mockingly.
Bright ignored it...
"Time for pay back " Bright dashed forward with speed.
'Swoosh' 💨
He dashed forward with extreme speed and closed the distance. He speed past the fighting students and took one that was holding a storage device.
"I'm not an enemy, i need one spare of your uniform pls" Bright pleaded to the student he kidnapped.
"Cough Cough.....who are you and how did you get me away from the others? " the guy questioned.
"Look, i have no time for explanations now, i need to save my friends " Bright stated
" Hmm" the guy muttered.
..............................
Everyone were busy hunting beasts until they all met in a vast land, the students were all surprised at how they were able to meet up.
Few of them were able to deduce that it was planned, they all waited wondering what to do next, because they meeting up means they have already cleared up the first stage of beasts, and they were told that they could come across the ruler of the beasts in in any stage of the adventure.
Some were even planning to steal frombtgw others, while some were preparing to head on their way, but suddenly a ground shook and they were all attacked by beasts ranging from the loweank tier up to the mediate, the beasts were led by the peak intermediate tentacled beast and a newly advance tier multiple legged tortoise.
The rare gens were all focused on the multiple legged tortoise while the rest were attacking both the tentacled beast and the other low level beast around, it was a tough battle.
"Why didn't they tell us that there will be an advance tier beast here?" one of the rare gen asked with frustration because all their attacks were futile.
"Are they planning to kill us? " another joined in.
"Those bastard will be taught a lesson when this gets to my father" a female rare gen cursed
..............................
"Why humming, are you giving me or not? " Bright asked with a tinge of impatience evident in his voice.
"How are you even going to help, you look horrible " the student complained
"How about i give you five ranker crystals, isn't that a fare trade? " Bright inquired
"Really, make it four ranker tier crystals and one mediate tier, that or nothing " the student responded.
"Here take it" five glittering crystals appeared from thin air unto Bright's hand
"Where did that come from?"the guy said
"You can knock him out and i'll hack his storage device for you to access " the system said
"Really " Bright was confounded
"Yeah i can do more, don't you ever thing of underestimating my powers " the system said proudly
"Great idea, but i'm not a robber nor a bully " bright responded.
The guy hand over an oversized uniform to Bright who immediately wore it.
"It's time" Bright muttered
(Quest received)
"What? A quest, why am i giving one?" Bright asked confused.
"Quest will be issued for you to grow stronger when completed." the system answered
"OH " Bright muttered
"Didn't you say you want to save your friends, why are you now standing there staring into this air, are you changing your mind already? " the guy questioned mockingly.
Bright ignored him and focused on the quest in his sight.
(A newly advance tier and a peak intermediate tier beast located)
(Defeat the beasts)
"What, how am i meant to defeat an advance tier beast, that's not possible and what is one doing here of all places, weren't we told that the strongest beast on the planet is the peak intermediate tier, how come there is a shift in power!!!. " Bright screamed with a look of horror.
(Quest failure : all host stats will be halved permanently)
"Just tell me you wanna kill me, you this murderer of a system!!!" another round of curse was being hurled at the system which stayed quiet.
"Lad, get yourself together and complete the quest, it's for your own good, moreover there are other students there to help you" the blades soothing voice sounded in his head.
"Okay let's do this then, no other option " Bright muttered.
"Hey, why are you ig...." the boy was saying when suddenly he was picked easily and now where he was take a from.
'Splitz' 💨
Something dashed around the battle field with extreme speed making everything that cross it's path to be cut in half, the speed was so fast that white and gold line were left behind, even the speed sters were astonished at such inhumane speed.
In less than a second all the beasts below the peak intermediate tier beast were all killed, leaving the peak intermediate tier beast and the advance tier beast.
"What the hell?"
"How is this possible?"
"Who is that?"
Were the thoughts running in everyone's mind when the perpetrator stood and revealed himself. All eyes were now on him and the battle ground remained silent.
"He looks familiar " Rina muttered
"Are you guys having the same feeling?" Noah asked his brothers.
"Yeah "
"Sure"
"Is that really him?"
"I's he alive ?"
They all voiced out their thoughts, the people close by were confused at what they were saying.
'Roar!!!'
A loud roaring sound was heard jolting everyone's attention, and they could see the intermediate beast glaring at the figure.
"Yeah you remembered me, i'm back to pay you back what you did" Bright was able to understand the meaning behind the roar likewise the other hybrids and tribrids around.
'Sswoooiish' 💨
Bright dashed with more and increased speed ready to release the anger burning in him on his opponent, the tentacled beast raised it's hand trying to catch him in its grasp,
'Switz ' 'Switz '
The tentacle was cut cleanly, more switzing sounds were heard, Bright ran round and leaped into the air, holding two blades in his hands, he slashed downward and descended with unfathomable speed that the beast couldn't avoid, he blades cut through the tentacled beast from the head to the bottom.
Blood splattered around but a dome like shape aura with constant spiraling blades block every drop of blood that tried to fall on him, the blades cut everyone single drop of blood.
Bright walked close to the beast and picked the crystal.
"take the beast body with you, it can help to make the guardian beasts body grow. " the system said.
"Hmm" Bright did as he was told and both the beast and the crystal disappeared from everyone's view.
Bright stated at the advance tier beast and the later did the same, they were both inspecting each other, while the students watching left their jaw open, they couldn't believe a student like them was able to kill a peak intermediate tier beast so easily.
They thought the same thing will happen to the advance tier beast until.
"I will need as much help i can get to defeat this one" Bright spoke .
"Here i thought you will just jump in and defeat the beast like you did the other " a bulky rare gen said.
"Where did the crystal go to and i can't find the crystals of all the beasts you killed!!! " a rough haired vampire shouted
"Hmm, what do you mean you can't find them?" Bright asked with a confused look.
"You can come over here to check for yourself" the rough haired vamp respond
"I took them all, it's your kill so the crystals are for you, you can just tell them you might have destroyed them them in your attack earlier, an obvious examples are the beasts that directly explode after making contact with your fist. " the system said.
"Emm...sorry i guess i might have used a bit much strength when taking out those weak beasts so i destroyed their crystals in the process " Bright said awkwardly not knowing if they bought his lie.
"So much strength for someone so stupid enough not to know when to control it" the same female rare gen who cursed the academy said.
More students opened their mouth to voice their complains but a loud hissing sound claimed their attention, reminding them that they are still on the battle field and not on the play ground.
