Kai stood before Mordax Rex, his fists clenched tightly. The confrontation had been a long time coming."You deliberately taught me indexes that block my system," Kai accused, his voice steady but burning with quiet rage.Mordax scoffed, stepping forward. "Watch your tongue, boy," he snapped. "I’ll not have a failure like you questioning me!" He turned to the gathered students, then back at Kai. "Try that again, and I’ll report you for insubordination."Kai didn’t back down. “Enough of this! I’m not training under you anymore.” He yanked.That single sentence set Mordax off. As his anger blew up, his hand flew, striking Kai across the face with a sharp slap that echoed through the room.“You dare defy me?” Mordax seethed. His face hardened in fury. “You’re coming with me… right now!” He spoke fiercely.Other students training under Mordax Rex that was watching gasps.“Why would Kai accuse trainer Mordax of teaching indexes that would block his system?”“He must definitely be out of hi

The battle arena buzzed with anticipation as students filled the stands. The atmosphere was heavy. Everyone wanted to see if the infamous Kai Draven would fall without his sword and armor.“We have watched him fight without a sword in the past. He is definitely going to win this.” A student said.“Kai had faced ordinary students in the past and not some rogue. Right now, he is facing a rogue and I can't arrest that he is going to win.” Another student replied.“I believe in Kai.” A student echoed. In the center of the ring, Kai faced off against the rogue student. His fists were raised and his mind focused. The match began.Kai struck first very quickly. It was fast, clean, and brutal. His fists moved with bone-crushing force. The rogue student tried to retaliate, but Kai ducked, weaved, and countered with precision. Within moments of fist to fist combat, the rogue was sprawled on the arena floor, his body bruised. The rogue student involved had been a feared one but now, he was hum

Mordax Rex’s hand hovered on the doorknob of his secret chamber. Just as he was about to twist it open, he paused. “Wait,” he muttered. “I forgot the map coordinates for the new safe house…” He hit his head and hissed. Mordax had actually walked aomg way back to his chamber and now, he had to go back again. He turned and walked away, buying Kai the precious seconds he needed to escape.From the dark corners, Kai emerged and he slipped out with the bow and arrow silently without making a noise. The System pinged. ‘Mission successful.’Back in his dorm, Kai carefully unwrapped the bow and arrow. It was the very ones used to slay Reina Ulhart. He secured them in a hidden compartment beneath the floorboard.‘Justice will come very soon.’ He echoed within himself and at the same time wondered why the system was letting him take it slow. This evidence was enough to present that Mordax actually committed a murder. The bell rang across Ironsphire Academy. It's time for training. Kai dism

Kai’s thoughts were restless. Cane Ash was dead after getting murdered violently. And Kai couldn’t get the image out of his head even though he hadn’t seen it yet. He couldn't just help having those images swarm his head. He wondered how humans could be so cruel and evil to take a man's life.DING!The system chimed again, cutting through the silence of his dorm room like a dagger. Kai's attention was called to his soul."Mission Alert: Trace the murder site. Objective: Follow the map and uncover the truth. Reward: Fear imprints on the enemy."Just after the echo from the system, a glowing map emerges before Kai’s eyes and it reveals a hidden location deep beyond the eastern woods behind Ironsphire Academy. The coordinates pulsed in red for identification by Kai. Kai exhumed out some breath. Without hesitation, Kai suited up in the fake armour incase of sudden impact. His blue flames were faint under his palms and it was ready for an action. The night air was cold and biting. Kai v

The heat from Kai’s last battle hadn’t even cooled before the entire Ironsphire Academy was ablaze with whispers.“Kai… did you see the flames from his feet?” A student whispered to the other. “Was that blue fire? What kind of protocol power is that?” The student replied in awe. “I heard he trained under Trent, the academy’s reject trainer!” Another echoed.“No way! Nothing good ever came from Trent.” Another student gave his reply. Despite the murmurs, no one could ignore the truth. Kai was a rising phoenix and the school had no explanation for how a once-ordinary boy was now defeating opponents above his level.Mordax Rex stood silently in his personal tower. His eyes were on the arena grounds as the battle replayed in his mind.“That flame… it’s not normal,” he muttered to himself, gripping the window rail. “Just how much more power is this boy hiding?” Fear gripped his heart and he narrowed his eyes.“He must have found a new system. There is nothing else that explains this ra
