Chapter 18: Fighting with a Rank Three Awakened (1/2)
”Hey Anita, I'm out of elemental stones. I'm close to breaking through, lend me some money please...”, a bald head guy said while pleading towards the girl beside him with puppy eyes.
The bald head guy has red eyes and a muscular build, his bearing is full of confidence and he emits pressure to the students around him. From the looks of it, He is certainly a high-ranking Awakened.
Anita glances at the bald guy helplessly, ”Elemental stone even if it's a low-quality one is roughly $2000. Noah, are you trying to rip me off?”
”You know that you're the best girl I know right?”, Compliment Noah trying to make Anita agree.
Anita has violet long hair that falls to her waist, although her face can be considered normal, the branded clothing makes up for it which makes her at least above average in terms of looks.
Anita's face blushed red, she threw her red face away and said, ”Fine just this once”
”Yes! Thank you!”, Noah said before hugging her excitedly.
Anita held her breath in surprise, her face turns redder than a tomato as Noah hugs her tightly.
They dwell in the romantic moment, when suddenly
”WHERE DID HE GO?”
”THERE! I SAW HIM”
”I AM GOING TO CHOKE HIM TO DEATH!”
A commotion was suddenly heard, dozens of students are running around looking for something or someone.
Noah grabs one of the students and asks, ”What is all this commotion?”
The guy who got grabbed by Noah glance at him and widened his eyes, ”NOAH! It's about Rosie's boyfriend”
Hearing this Noah frown, ”Lucas finally got her huh?”
”No, It's not Lucas but someone else becomes Rosie's boyfriend. He even purposely act all lovey-dovey to rub it on our faces”, the guy said with a hint of anger in his tone.
”What?! Where is he?”, Noah asks with bulging veins on his forehead. Although he didn't see it, he can already imagine how annoying that will be.
The guy pointed in a direction before they both run towards it while sending curses to Rex.
Anita was speechless, she just got into a good moment when suddenly all of that collapses in the blink of an eye.
'That bitch Rosie', she thought while clenching her fists.
Meanwhile, Rex was running tirelessly.
There are still three people on his tail, Rex glances at his back and looks at their stats.
'1 rank two awakened and 2 ranks one awakened, Should I try?', Rex thought while running. He is hesitating whether he can beat the three of them fast enough to not get caught up with the other.
After decided to try, Rex suddenly makes a sharp right to a hall heading to the library.
He gets inside the library and headed upstairs,
The library interior is mostly made of wood, it brings comfort to the students who are reading peacefully. Rows of books are assigned neatly on each cabinet with the name of the section on top of it.
After he looks around the third floor, he saw that not many students are reading here.
He chooses a random cabinet and hid there, waiting for the three students to find him.
”Where is he? I saw him go to this floor”
”You, go to the library entrance and tell the other that he's here”
Rex can hear them talking, he cursed the guy that ordered one of them to tell the others.
'I'm going to get surrounded if I don't move now, let's do that trick', Rex thought before he crouches beside the next cabinet where the two guys are searching.
Rex pushes the book to make them fall near the guys,
Thud!
”What was that?!”
”It's just a book falling”
Thud!
”Is there any ghost story here?”
”Based on what I know, there's a bully victim student who commits suicide here”
Thud!
”This is not right! Something is making this book fall”
The guys started to get scared, although they are an Awakened they are still human who's afraid of a ghost.
They both look towards their back where the three-book has fallen from the cabinet, just as they scaredly look around, a whisper seeps into their ears.
”Bo!”
The both of them jumped in fright before their neck got hit and their vision started to get hazy as they both fall unconscious.

”HAHA, works every time”, Rex murmurs when suddenly he senses someone approaching him,
BAM!
Before Rex can react, a punch landed right on his face making him stumbling before regaining his balance,
He rubs his hurting face as he looks at the one who punches him in annoyance,
In front of him, he saw a bald head guy with two other guys behind him.
The bald guy has a fire burning in his eyes, his red eyes seem to lit up brighter because of the fire and his hands are scorching with fire, he is Noah.
”You, How dare a non-awakened like you date Rosie. I will not accept this!”, he declared loudly.
Rex smirked, ”Who are you to order Rosie like that? Are you her father?”
Hearing this, Noah's face was red in embarrassment, ”Nonsense, Just know I will beat you up today”
”Let me see you try”, Rex said while waving his hand to taunt Noah.
