Chapter 80: Black Lightning (2/2)
She walks past the meditation room and saw the ground filled with blood.
Hera runs to her followed by Adhara and asks hurriedly, ”What's wrong?”
Rosie covered her mouth in shock and points towards the meditation room where Rex just left, her hands are trembling while pointing towards the room.
Following Rosie's hand, the both of them look to the side and saw the bloody scene.
Adhara widened her eyes in shock but she soon recovered, while Hera on the other hand is gasping uncontrollably.
She can't believe what her eyes are seeing.
'This room is the one Rex used, then that means this is Rex's blood right?', she thought before glancing at Rex.
”Excuse me! Can you please clean this up?”, Hera shouted to the train attendant.
After that, she immediately approaches Rex to see his condition but to her surprise, Rex is already fallen asleep, fatigue overwhelms him making him instantly fell asleep.
Rosie and Adhara also pops their head from her back and saw Rex sleeping,
Hera wanted to touch Rex's forehead to feel his temperature but to her surprise it is hot, she felt worried but Rosie intervenes, ”It's okay, he's always this hot”
Hearing this, Hera hesitated before decided to trust Rosie.
Just as they wanted to leave Rex to rest,
Hera saw a black current flashing around Rex's hand from the corner of her eyes, she turns her head to look at it but there's nothing, 'Maybe it's just my imagination'
Hours have passed by,
Rex's eyelids tremble slightly before he opened his eyes slowly, he adjusted his eyes to the surroundings and found the girls and Hera sleeping.
He stretches his body before straightening it,
The black lightning inside his body has already fully merged, he can feel it coursing calmly unlike before.
'I want to test it out but there's no training room, I'll just try to play with it', Rex thought.
He then activates the black lightning and plays with it on his hand,
The black lightning is filled with corruption energy, he can even feel some dark mana intertwining with the black lightning.
Rex felt stronger for some reason, he controls the black lightning to envelopes his body and felt his power increase dramatically.
He then opens his stats tab and sees the changes,

<average human=”” adults=”” have=”” 5-7=”” points=”” for=”” each=”” stat=”” except=”” for=”” intelligence=””></average>
Reading the stats, Rex frowns, 'It raises my stats for quite a bit especially my agility but why am I still rank two? I remember Rosie's intelligence is 43 and she is mid-rank three but mine, on the other hand, is 38 but I'm still peak rank two?'
Rex was confused but suddenly the system answers,
<black lightning=”” is=”” a=”” peak=”” second=”” rank=”” element=”” thus=”” to=”” reach=”” rank=”” three=”” the=”” user=”” need=”” to=”” have=”” 45=”” intelligence=”” stat=””></black>
'Oh, so that's it. Although my elements become stronger, the requirement to reach next rank also becomes heavier', Rex thought.
After playing with the black lightning for a bit, he gets up from his seat and went to the bar.
The bar is empty with no one except him and the bartender.
He takes a seat and said, ”Give me any drink”
The bartender nodded her head and takes a bottle from the cabinet, she takes a glass and put it in front of Rex.
She then puts a couple of ice before pouring the drink professionally.
Rex takes the glass and drinks it in one go,
Gulp!
He slams the glass on the table in satisfaction, he's currently looking down in thought.
Out of nowhere, he felt nervous, the closer the train got to Faraday University the faster his heartbeat.
Maybe because of how hard he prepared for this fight, he becomes like this, 'I'm confident in fighting against Kevin Luc, I prepare so hard but there's always the possibility of losing. If I lose what then?'
He leans his head on his hand with a frown,
The bartender notices this, she approaches Rex and asks teasingly, ”So, the strongest first-year. What's seems to bother your mind?”
Rex raises his head and saw the bartender asking him with a bright smile while wiping a glass,
The bartender looks in her late twenties, her blonde hair is twirling until her shoulder, her hazel eyes glow that will surely attract him but Rex decided to turn his head away.
”Nothing really, just give me the damn bottle”, he said.
Hearing this, the bartender chuckles lightly before putting the bottle beside Rex.
Rex pours himself a drink, he gulped it all in one go without a care in the world.
Not long after, the bottle is already empty and his head is already lying on the bar counter drunk.
”I work hard to beat that Kevin, so why am I so nervous?”, Rex started mumbling, his mind is not in the right place right now.
The bartender approaches Rex, ”Well, pour it all out. You can tell me anything, I'll listen to you”
Rex nodded his head dazedly, ”Do you want to know? I just evolve my element! how cool is that? I'm cool!”
”Wow really? What did it become?”, the bartender asks curiously.
Rex flexed his hands as black lightning started to course on his hand, ”Peak Rank Two! Ha!*Hic* How cool is that? I will *Hic* reach rank six smoothly”
Hearing this, the bartender widened her eyes in surprise, ”That's great! No wonder you're the strongest!”, she said while clapping lightly.
After flexing, he slammed his head on the counter, ”No worries,*Hic* I will certainly use this power to kill all Werewolves! How dare they *Hic* Kill my parents”
Tears started to fall down from his eyes,
The bartender was quite shocked by the sudden change, she approaches Rex and stroke his head gently, ”There, there, you will certainly avenge them I don't doubt it. How did you get so strong? have you killed anyone with this much power?”
”I killed many Supernatural and annoying people, they're all annoying people. and why am I so strong? HAHA, Of course, that's because I'm a We...”, before he can finish, he suddenly passed out.
The bartender clicked her tongue in displeasure, she then helped him up before bringing him back to his seat.
She then went back to the bar and takes her phone, ”Sir, I got some news and I assure you it will be quite useful”, she said to the person on the phone.
