51 Duty! (1/2)

”Thank you,” Jessica was anxiously biting her lips as she continued to heal him. She couldn't understand why Zed will go to such an extent for helping her.

Zed didn't say anything. He has obviously lied when he said that his current state was due to the usage of fire domain earlier.

The truth is he has used the power of Cosmic Spark to awaken Jessica's abilities completely. He has summoned very low power but even that became a very huge burden for his current form to handle. This was precisely why Cosmic Spark gave him his Kiba form to use its power.

A few minutes later, Zed told Jessica to stop healing him. His internal injuries were healed but he was still exhausted.

He turned his face towards Ryan and said,” You were saying something, right?”

Ryan's expression was unsightly. He has a hard time believing the change in Jessica's ability but he knew what he saw was true. He has challenged Zed to prove his claims of ”there are no trash abilities in this world but only trash teachers.”

Zed has proved his words in front of the entire class and assistant trainers. Ryan could hear the sounds of discussion among students and trainers alike. He knew his reputation would be sullied after the words spread.

”Trash, in the end, is still trash,” Zed made a final remark and turned back.

Ryan's eyes burned with fury. He dashed towards Zed and threw a punch on his back.

Zed fell on the ground with a loud thud. Everyone was caught off guard with the situation and it applied to Felicity as well.

”You dare!” Felicity's eyes were radiating green light.

BOOOM

The ground was torn apart by gigantic roots. With sonic speed, they arrived at Ryan and pierced his thighs.

”Bitch!” Ryan's skin turned into metallic. He ripped apart the roots in no time.

”You are going to pay a price,” Felicity spread her hands apart and then suddenly brought them close.

The branches of nearby trees rapidly expanded in size and they rushed towards Ryan. Ryan jumped up to dodge the branches and arrived in front of Felicity.

”Stop otherwise I will---” Ryan stopped in middle. He saw strange green vines appearing from Felicity's hands aiming at his head!He tried to jump back but the vines were much quicker than he thought.

”Ahhh!” Ryan was able to protect his head but his arms and shoulders were pierced.

”I tried to show mercy on you,” Ryan gritted his teeth. He could have punched Felicity but he didn't afraid of her background. How could he have known she will pay his 'mercy' with an attack?

”Show mercy to your mother,” Felicity clenched her fist and more vines appeared from the ground nearby.

”Felicity, stop,” Zed stood up from the ground by Jessica's help. He knows Felicity is strong but he also knew Ryan couldn't be underestimated. He was an ex-military and a strong strength type mutant. Zed was sure Ryan wasn't using the full extent of his ability before.

Felicity was still adamant but Zed quickly calmed her.

”I am fine and he has already paid a price,” Zed's voice was magnanimous. The injury he has taken wasn't light but his voice was full of kind intention.

”You are far too kind for yourself,” Felicity made the vines disappear. Zed gave a hollow laugh but deep in his eyes, there was a sinister glint.

Jessica offered to heal Zed again but he refused by saying, ”There is no need since help is arriving.”

”Help?”

”It is here.”

A red hovercraft suddenly arrived in the training field. Alex and Jamie's expression was of envy.

”It is the latest S class,” Alex was annoyed.

”That bastard is sure rich,” Jamie muttered. They were rich but they couldn't afford to waste money as Zed did.

”You are going home?” Felicity asked. She wasn't aware of the lab in his house but she knew he has advanced treatment room.

”Yes. I will come back later on so don't worry about me,” Zed reassured her. He sat in the hovercraft and left.

Jessica saw the hovercraft disappearing from her sight.

”I will certainly repay him.”

-------------

The hovercraft was modified by Claudia so she could control it perfectly well.

[[Sir, should I provide the treatment?]] The hovercraft has the facilities for emergency treatment.

”No need,” Zed has a smile on his face. His body started transforming into Kiba.

As he transformed, the wounds on his body rapidly healed. When the transformation completed, all signs of exhaustion were wiped out.

Both Zed and Kiba's form shared the same body. This was why Kiba's sense of crisis automatically activated during his meeting with Hank in White Angel Corporation and made him wary of confronting Sky Fiend Group, even though this ability belonged to Zed and not Kiba.
