Chapter 76: Petty Duel with Luke
“I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL!!”
The guy can be considered to be short, he looks innocent and naive but he’s currently pointing a sword at Rex.
Hearing the guy’s declaration, the surrounding people stopped and glance at them.
“Did someone started a fight?”
“That’s Rex! Oh no, someone is messing with him again”
“We can’t blame him, Rex is not an Awakened so I get why he wanted to challenge him”
“Who’s that guy? I have never seen him before”
The crowd broke into a discussion, some are worried for the guy who challenged Rex while some already sent prayers to the guy who is about to get bitten by Rex.
Rex, on the other hand, was confused, “Who are you?”, he said nonchalantly, in Rex’s eyes the guy in front of him is nothing.
Rex already checked the guy’s power and it is only mid-rank three, pretty good for a young guy like him but not enough.
“How dare you a non Awakened join the sparing tournament! You’re not worthy!”, the guy said.
Hearing this, Rex was baffled.
His eyes turned cold, he turns to his back and walks away leaving the guy.
Rosie on Rex’s side put out her tongue to annoy the guy, she then turns her head smugly while leaving the guy.
The guy’s pride was hurt, he never treated this way before.
“Wait!!”, he shouted desperately but his shout is ignored by Rex and the girls.
The guy gritted his teeth in anger, his face is flushed red.
He readied himself with a sword on his side, the sword started to burn with dark-red fire. The fire is twirling around the sword as if it’s alive, it suppressed the fire Elementalist in the surrounding.
“WHAT’S THAT FIRE?!”
“Dark red fire? Is it a higher form of fire?!”
“What a talent, he will be very strong in the future. Rex might not be able to take him on!”
The crowd was amazed by the guy’s fire, it gives the guy more confidence. The muscle on his legs contracted as he lunges towards Rex.
He swings his blazing sword to Rex’s back, ‘How dare a non-Awakened ignore me. I will teach him where he belongs’
Slash!!
The guy slashed the blazing sword towards Rex’s back but Rex dodge it to the side,
‘This guy is persistent’, Rex thought but then he remembers something, ‘Duncan is on my tail and I don’t know when will he come for me but he will eventually find out, I need to raise my value in front of the university’
The guy didn’t stop, he twists his body around powerfully.
Dark red energy burst from within the guy, the energy gathered fiercely on his sword, “Normal Magic, Fire Dragon!”
ROAR!!
The guy slashed as the dark red energy turned into a fire dragon swirling around the sword, it roared fiercely making the fire Elementalist around trembles.
The fire dragon burn even brighter as it got nearer to Rex, it’s like a tide of fire wanting to swallow Rex whole.
Looking at this, Rex’s eyes flash with lightning.
He activates the lightning mana inside his body, the electric current started to blitz around Rex’s body viciously.
The crowd was aghast, they can’t believe what they’re seeing right now.
“He…He becomes an Awakened!”
“OH MY GOD!! How is this possible?!”
The crowd was shivering in fear, they already tasted Rex’s power when he’s not yet Awakened. But now, how strong will Rex be if he suddenly became an Awakened.
Even thinking about it makes their heart shrank, but many become inspired by Rex.
The guy is still smiling viciously, in his mind Rex will unable to block his attack and burn.
But reality proves otherwise,
Rex suddenly disappeared from his spot, he just suddenly disappear in front of everyone’s eyes.
Before the guy can even react, Rex already arrives in front of him.
The guy panicked, he swings his sword instinctively aiming at Rex’s head.
SWOOSH!!
The fiery sword slashed towards Rex’s head, ‘Oh no! I can’t stop the attack! I might just kill him!’, the guy thought in panic, in the heat of battle he unconsciously let out his full power.
But right in front of everyone’s eyes, Rex raises his hand and caught the blazing sword.
BAM!!
A shockwave was created pushing everyone back because of the collision, the crowd sucked in a cold breath in shock.
Rex caught the blazing sword bare-handed!
They thought that the attack might threaten Rex with its fire but what in front of their eyes shatters that thought, the attack was nothing in front of Rex!
Rex’s hand was burning because of the dark fire but it barely burns Rex’s skin, adding with his regenerative abilities the fiery sword becomes child’s play in front of him.
The guy was shocked, he widened his eyes as his face drains from all colors, “Imp…Impossible”
Rex’s eyes glow a blue hue, his eyes are staring right into the guy’s eyes.
He cast Alpha Intimidation making the guy crumble in fright,
Rex becomes an unbelievably huge monster that can kill the guy in a blink of an eye, the guy’s face drains from all colors, ‘He’s a monster!!’
His legs started to tremble uncontrollably, the proud look on his face was instantly wiped off.
“Little guy, you shouldn’t provoke someone you can’t handle. Let this be a lesson”, Rex readied his fist, swiftly after, his fist landed on the guy’s making his stomach caved in.
BAM!!
“HUAKHH!!”, the guy spat a mouthful of blood feeling the power from Rex’s punch.
The punch was pure strength, but to the guy, it felt like he just got hit by a train.
The guy held his gut while blood still flowing out of his mouth, he’s kneeling on the ground unable to move because of Rex’s punch.
Rex held his punch back,
If he uses his full power he feared that the stores on the guy’s back will get destroyed and the guy will probably be killed instantly or maybe his fist might’ve pierced through the guy’s stomach.
He did not want any more trouble so he held back,
Rex looks at the guy with cold eyes, he approaches the guy to ask who sent him.
The guy that is kneeling on the ground was utterly hopeless and shocked, ‘That guy is secretly an Awakened?! but I can clearly feel his lightning mana is not that powerful, how did he become so strong?!’, he thought with a shock.
The onlooking crowd was silent, some of them expected the outcome but not like this.
Just as Rex wanted to grab the guy’s neck and questioned him, “Stop!!”, a woman’s voice shouted from afar.
Rex felt the voice is familiar, he glances and found Hera running towards him.
“Stop! Rex! It’s a misunderstanding, Let’s talk things out”, Hera said with a worried expression, she checks on the guy fearing he’s too badly injured.
The guy is already limp lying on the ground, his expression scrunched in pain.
“Who is he?”, Rex said casually.
Hera bits her lips, she is hesitating to answer Rex but she then sighs, “He is Luke, Kevin’s little brother”
Hearing this, Rex raises his brows mockingly, “This is his brother? Really?”
Luke who is lying on the ground spurted another mouthful of blood, “Just you wait, my brother will definitely beat you!”
Rex chuckles lightly, “You should be worried for your brother, I held my punch for you but I might go overboard with your brother”
Luke wanted to rebutted but suddenly,
“Rex! Let’s go, why are you arguing with him anyway. He’s just a little kid”, Rosie said while hugging Rex’s arm from the back.
Rex shrugs Rosie’s hug making her pout, “Fine, let’s go”
Just as they wanted to walk away, “You’re…You’re Rosie right?”, Luke said while being helped to stand up by Hera.
Hearing Luke, Hera wanted to stop him but Rosie already replied, “Yea why?”
“Are you that guy’s girlfriend?”, Luke asks with a hint of anger.
Rosie puts her delicate fingers on her lips in thought, she then replies, “Well, you can say that”
Luke was surprised for some reason, he’s currently grinding his bloodied teeth in anger, “How dare you cheat on my brother!! My brother will surely beat you, Rex!”
Rex frowned, “What did he mean?”, he asks Rosie.
Rosie panicked, “I don’t know! I never even meet Kev…”, just as she said this, she suddenly remembered the guy she bumped the other night.
Seeing Rosie stopped, Rex was confused, ‘Did she met him before? When?’
Feeling the situation might get escalated, Hera panicked and decided to intervene, “It’s not what it sounds like, Kevin is just curious about you so he visited the university yesterday night”
“Then why’s this Luke kid said that?”, Rex asks while squinting his eyes.
Hera was at a loss for words, she wanted to make an excuse but under Rex’s eyes, she becomes unable to think.
Looking at this Rex frowns, then suddenly that frown turns into an evil grin, “Then let’s return the favor, shall we?”
Hera was stunned, “I’m sorry I think I caught it wrong, can you repeat that?”
“I said let’s go to Faraday University today to visit”, he replied before he walks away leaving the stunned Hera.
“Eh?…EH?!”, Hera screamed in surprise, “This is bad!”
The tournament opening should’ve been held tomorrow, the fight will then be held the day after tomorrow after the opening.
But hearing Kevin visit his university to try and provoke him, he cannot just take that mockery and leave it be.
He will return the favor the same.

Meanwhile,
Calidora just arrived in the Vampire Kingdom not too long ago,
She gains so much experience from visiting Zrolis City, from the way humans fight, the war environment, and even socializing with the humans when she’s captured.
Not to mention she brought a couple of goods from there, she glanced at the mirror excitedly.
The Vampire citizens sent praises to their origin for Calidora’s safe return, they sang songs and sprayed blood to the surrounding in joy.
The guard that guards the Vampire King castle immediately bowed upon seeing Calidora before opening the entrance.
Just as Calidora walks into the castle, her mother sobbed in delight seeing Calidora’s return.
She runs towards Calidora disappearing from her spot and hugs her tightly, the news about Calidora got kidnapped makes her entire being tremble in fright.
She cried day and night nonstop, her husband the vampire king even got blamed for it although she knew it’s her fault for letting Calidora visit Zrolis City.
“My dear daughter…I’m so glad that you came back safely”, she said while crying hysterically.
Calidora pats her mom’s back, “It’s okay mom, I’m back now!”
The Vampire King also approach the both of them and join in the hugs, “I hope you be more careful in the near future, Don’t make your mother worry like that”
“I will dad, I’m sorry”, Calidora replied, her eyes become teary because of her mother’s cries.
After having their reunion, Calidora said excitedly, “Mom, Dad! Look what I brought”, she signals the guard to bring the mirror she got in.
The guard held the mirror in front of them, he’s holding it carefully.
Calidora grabs her mother’s hand and brought her in front of the mirror, “Mom look! you can see yourself through this item!”
Nezera looks at the mirror, she already knew of this item but seeing Calidora’s face she doesn’t want to sour her mood, “Oh! I have never seen this before, dear come quick! It’s a miraculous item”
The Vampire King joins in the act, “Oh my, I’m quite handsome as expected”, he said proudly.
Hearing this, Nezera and Calidora give him a disgusted look.
The Vampire King smile wryly, he coughs to ease his embarrassing side.
Then Calidora said excitedly, “Father, you also won’t believe who I just met when I’m being held by the humans!”
Hearing this, the Vampire King gives Calidora a questioning look.
“I met the Werewolf Spy! I can’t believe the Werewolves manage to make one of their people into human-skinned”, she said while shaking her head in admiration.
Hearing this, the Vampire King and Nezera look at each other with a surprised look.
Then Calidora continues, “That Werewolf is pretty strong for his age, I reckon he’s in his early teen just like me. I told Fredrick to not kill him, it’s because I saw a powerful helper on his side and also I don’t want to ruin the Werewolf’s spy”
Nezera was quite shocked, “You…You met the Werewolf Spy?”
“Yeah, he even gave me some of his blood to help me. Quite a nice Werewolf I must say, unlike the others”, Calidora said, her eyes are containing stars as she remember Rex.
The Vampire King got surrpised but then his expression turned serious, “Tell me all about him”
