Chapter 202: Rampage (2/2)

They heard an ear-piercing shrill. Then it was followed by a silhouette that flew away from the smoke and crashed on the wall in a loud bang.

Cinde and Rea had their mouths shut. But soon, Rea opened her mouth. ”I-Is this how the training is supposed to be?” She asked the question while having a bewildered face. But even Cinde was wondering about it.

The way Crimson fought with the training boss was like fighting it for his life.

And not just that, their battle was so unbelievable that one might think that they were watching a fight between two monsters.

Aside from that, Cinde noticed that Crimson was pulling some new skills that he never showed in the competition. Just how many spells Crimson can use? Cinde asked herself.

Every time he fought, he would never fail to amaze her. Might be the reason she... wanted to befriend him? Or is it just like that? Cinde was asking herself some questions that she never asked before.

She used to only care about playing virtual games inside her rooms and excluded herself from society. Every day she felt it was boring and only in the game that she found happiness, together with her online friends that she never met in real life.

At night, she was tasked to train her magic. As the family's successor of great magic, she could not even say no. It was also the reason that she felt life was boring for her.

Every day was repetitive.

But after meeting him. She felt there was more to life that she wanted to see.

She felt curious about him. And everything he did always amazed her. Now, she wanted to get stronger too like him. Maybe she admired his strength. His being surreal for pulling some tricks that one wouldn't expect. He seemed to be a mysterious person with so many surprises.

She wanted to see more about him. She wanted to witness all the surprise he would pull.

Cinde bit her lips when she felt her heartbeats had started to beat a little faster than normal.

(She wondered why… it has to beat like this…)

Ahead of them, behind the glass window, Crimson shot another Scatter Shot to the enemy. He would never let the enemy until it turns to light particles.

After he fired it, it was followed by a random explosion to where the enemy was. Then he shot himself towards it, like a rampaging monster.

The enemy had no time to restore its charred body because of its unstoppable follow-up attacks. Crimson arrived in front of it. Then he was slowly lifting his arm. The enemy was stuck in the wall and couldn't move. And in front of it, he was standing while pointing his fist.

His eyes were hidden under his bangs of white hair. Then a toothy grin appeared on his face. A moment after a bead of sweat fell to the floor, he rained rapid punches to the enemy.

The enemy tried to retaliate by shielding itself using its arms. But it was useless in the face of his onslaught. In addition to multiple damages that the enemy received a while ago, his life essence had finally waned.

Until it's endurance was not able to endure all the damages it received. Then a second later, it finally broke, and its body slowly turned into light particles.

But even though it was turning into light particles, he did not stop until the last particle of light lost its flicker.

Cinde gasped in disbelief while watching him.

Rea, on the other hand, was silent while fixed staring at him on a rampage.

Immediately, silence descended inside the room after the boss was killed. Just the heavy gasping of air could be heard inside.

The training suit he was wearing was tattered all over. Even the room was littered with pits and debris, that seemingly acted as evidence of an intense battle that happened in the place.

(Tap tap tap…)

He walked towards the exit. But soon stopped when an announcement from the management of the Training Pavilion resounded inside the room.

Yman glanced above and listen to the announcements.

The first word that the announcer spoke was congratulatory towards him, for successfully defeating the boss of the first stage.

”First stage?” Yman was surprised.

[Yes, there's a total of 100 stages to beat. If trainee 'The Mysterious' wishes to proceed to the second stage he can choose to select the choices, or to give up and exit the training room.]

Right after the announcer saying it, a box of the holographic screen appeared in front of him.

Inside the box, the text asking to proceed or not could be read. He was asked to select one of the two choices inside it.

”I wonder what Crimson will choose?” Cinde said with a big smile. She was happy that finally, their department would now earn points.

”It's good for him to rest--” Just after Rea said it, a notification saying [Welcome to the Jungle!]

'He continued! This person is insane!' Rea exclaimed.
