Chapter 138: You Will be Accompanying My Son (1/2)
Rex went down from his room and go to the Training Hall, Adhara said that Edward is waiting for him there.
Many people glance at him but he ignored it.
Not long after, Rex arrived at the Training Hall.
'It's been so long I've been here', Rex thought but then, he saw many people gathering in the Training Hall which makes the place crowded.
The students of Ochyra University are all gathered in the Training Hall, even the non-Awakened students are gathering here with excited expressions.
'Is there an event here?', Rex thought, the Training Hall is usually not this crowded.
Rex went inside the Training Hall, the students make way for him when they saw Rex's face.
All of them including the non-Awakened knows Rex by now, he's the pride of Ochyra University but unknown to them Rex is almost decided to move to Faraday University.
He then looks through the crowd searching for Edward but then, ”Look! He won again! Oh my god, he can even beat Fred!”
Hearing this, Rex glance to his left and saw Edward in the arena.
Edward's arena gathered a bunch of students that are watching him, he's currently fighting against a non-Awakened with a bald head.
The bald head guy tries to penetrate Edward's defense to no avail, his defense is rock solid.
But Rex notices that the bald guy's movements are not sluggish like the other Awakened he fights before, it seems the bald guy trained in close combat for a little bit.
Edward didn't use any enhancement, he's matching the power of his opponent to make the brawl pure skill exchange.
He then kicks the bald guy sending him outside of the sand arena, ”Who's next?”, he said with a smile.
Edward scans the surroundings but then his eyes landed on Rex, he taunts Rex by flaunting his fingers but Rex denied it.
”Let's go, we got things to do”, Rex said.
Seeing that Rex is unwilling to spar, Edward sent a mocking look to Rex.
He wanted to spar against Rex who is a match for him but Rex didn't have the time, Edward then jumped out of the arena and leave with him.
They both went out of the Training Hall under the students gaze,
Edward's dominating hand-to-hand combat skills become unimpressive when they knew he knows Rex, all of the people around Rex seem to be powerful people.
It's the university's public secret to not mess with any people around Rex.
”Here's the address, go there and tell Kyran that you will be training him by my orders”, Rex said, he already sent the address to Edward via chat.
Edward looks at his phone and said, ”What do you want him to do specifically?”
”I want him to be able to scout places and gather information stealthily. That kid is gifted, so it won't be hard to train him”, Rex said.
Hearing this, Edward wanted to ask how's the kid gifted but Rex intervenes, ”You'll see”
After telling Edward about what Rex wants, he wants to leave and go to the Task Hall but then he stopped.
Rex thinks for a moment, 'Should she just train? I think that's better'
He then went back to Edward who is currently looking at the address, he then said, ”Oh can I ask you one more favor?”
Edward got surprised, ”I'll throw you to the military again if it's hard”, he joked.
Rex chuckles lightly before he said, ”Remember Adhara? Just give her a training routine for her dagger-wielding skills, it'll be better if you train her once in a while”
”Fine! But you owe me the most expensive steak after this”, Edward demanded.
After leaving Edward,
Rex went back to the room after he gets a mission in the Task Hall,
The Task Hall staff is weirded out by Rex taking peak rank three missions, but Rex does this based on experience.
The mission Rex takes from the Task Hall is to eradicate a horde of Kobold and Blue Lizards that are attacking a level four-city, it's only a peak rank three mission so Rex will probably manage to handle it alone.
Because of the missions before, the higher-rank mission is too dangerous for Rex.
He plans to steadily level up while honing his Awakened skills, he needs to be strong enough to do the plan for the Platchi.
”Adhara, I'll be going alone doing mission”, Rex said.
Hearing this, Adhara widened her eyes as she finds it sudden, ”I'm tired but I can still help you, you don't need to exclude me from this”
”It's not that, you're training to use daggers right?”, Rex asks.
Adhara nodded her head, she's indeed trying to hone her dagger skills.
Then, Rex continues, ”Well you should learn from Edward, he will be an excellent teacher for you rather than fighting brute Supernatural”
The reason for Rex saying this to Adhara is of course to make Adhara become stronger, but that's not all.
He also wanted to spam peak rank three missions to raise his level, it will be more time-efficient if he does it rather than asking Adhara and Kyran to help.
They're not strong enough, so it's better to let them train first while he grinds some exp.
It's not that Adhara and Kyran will level up too, so it'll be better for them to prepare their skills for the upcoming event that Rex thinks will happen soon.
After saying that, Adhara finally agrees after some argument.
She then dresses and leaves the room after Rex told him to meet Edward in the house he bought, he also doesn't forget to tell her to train hard because he needs her.
This makes Adhara secretly happy,
Rex then lies on the bed, he will go for the missions after he scans through the shop.
He wanted to find any spells he might need but even after scrolling for a while, he doesn't find any spells that he needs.
He then just bought a breathing technique for Adhara and Kyran.
These breathing techniques are Swift Gale Breathing Technique and Deluge Shadow Breathing Technique, both are mid-rank breathing techniques.
Rex also didn't forget to buy for himself, he bought a high-rank breathing technique.
