Ancient Tears BloodLine



From MC's perspective:

I took a deep breath looking down at the corpse. "That was intense," I mumbled under my breath. I had never expected to fight three warriors at the same time. 

But fortunately, they underestimated me. 

If not I wouldn't have escaped smoothly. Then I walked up to the dead bodies to remove the storage rings. 

After collecting the rings, I used the flight ability to go back. On the way back, I observed my injury from time to time. 

The bleeding stopped. But I feel something wrong with the dagger itself. 

...

Meanwhile, the bodyguard is hiding in the shadows. Noted everything he had witnessed. The dean had advised him not to interfere until it was necessary. 

Because the assassination is something they had expected earlier. That's why he was sent to guard Zack Lockwood secretly. 

The enemies are Super Elite Warriors. If it was the realm above he would have intervened directly. He had decided to wait and watch. But still, Zack Lockwood surprised him greatly.

Everyone had underestimated Zack's ability to fight across ranks. Zack is not only invisible in the same realm. He can even fight across one big realm.

The whole fighting process is deeply imprinted in his memory. He will report it back to the dean later.

But before that, he has to do something. 

A quick glint flashes in his eyes,

He noticed the dagger attack by the enemy was not simple. It's poison. After realizing that, he contacted the authorities in Viper City.

He told them to arrange a medical setup immediately. 

After doing that he collected the three dead bodies on the ground. 

....

A few hours later,

I reached the City Wall of Viper City. After landing in front of the gate, I verified my identity.

Right after, the 10 ft door opened. Then I entered inside and walked to the exit.

A trace of struggle appeared in my eyes. Should I go back to the academy? Or See an emergency medical facility here. 

While walking, a slight drowsiness affected my mind. When this sensation hit me. A woke up like a lightning jolt. 

I immediately observed my injury. The area around the wound is becoming black. Looking at this, I got a bad feeling about the color.

By the time, I walked out of the door. I feel like I'm losing consciousness very badly. I just took a few steps forward.

Tud!

Before I lost my consciousness, I fell to the ground.

Swish~

Right after, a shadowy figure appeared. He picked up the unconscious body and went to the medical facility.

Time passed,

When I regain consciousness. I felt my entire body being freshened. I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling.

"Where am I?" I muttered to myself. 

Then I recollected the memory before I fainted. A sudden realization dawned upon me. 

"Dagger?" I uttered in surprise before I removed the quilt to see the abdomen injury. 

A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. The injury was healed without leaving any skin scar.

Then I got out of bed and looked around. 

No doubt, I'm in a medical facility.

Creak~

The door opened. A petite female nurse entered the room. Seeing that patient was woken up. She immediately went back to inform the healer.

"Hmmm," I raised my eyebrows in surprise. I didn't mind her behavior. But how did I get here?

Shortly after, an old man in his sixties wearing a white coat entered the room along with the nurse. 

"You might be Zack Lockwood right?" The old man asked.

I raised my eyebrows. But I wasn't surprised. My face is quite well known. 

In response, I nodded my head and asked, "Can I leave?"

The old man revealed a bright smile on his face. "Ha..Ha..Ha... You can leave whenever you want."

"But before that, I'll have to check your body condition for the last time. Because if there is any lingering poison in your organs, it would affect your future growth," The old man answered with a smile.

"What poison?" My heart set off storms. 

The image of a dagger thrust into the abdomen comes to mind. I immediately connected the dots. They are killers. No wonder I had felt something ominous.

It must be because of the poison. The Super Elite Warrior intended to kill me with poison. 

"Sh!t," I said in my heart. Fortunately, I was near Viper City. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to find the cure. 

"How did I end up here?" I asked.

The old man is already prepared for this answer. 

"The authorities found you unconscious at the entrance. So they brought you here. As far as your identity, we found it from the entrance log," The old man replied.

I nodded in understanding. Right after, verifying my identity. I had lost consciousness. 

"Alright, you guys can proceed. I want to leave as soon as possible," I said to them.

The old man smiled before inspecting the abdomen injury. He placed his palm on the injured area which was gone now. He injected a healing essence 

At the same time, I'm watching the whole process silently. I was not a stranger to the healing element. 

I have seen this before back at Hansen Campus. 

Several minutes later,

The old man stopped the treatment. He looked at me with relief and said, "Great, you are completely fine. There was no trace of poison."

"You can leave now."

I sighed inwardly. The old man doesn't know that I'm a healer too. The wood scripture might have worked automatically to remove the poison.

A few minutes later,

I walked out of the room and headed to the registration desk. A female staff member is working behind the desk.

Seeing me coming, she revealed a smile on her face. 

Alas! Looks like my identity was not hidden anymore. 

"How much do I have to pay?" I asked.

The staff hurriedly replied, "No sir, your treatment is free. It is one of the privileges of the Saw Scale Academy Warriors."

A look of understanding dawned upon me. I almost forget the whole of Viper City is the property of the Saw Scaled Viper Academy.

After thanking her, I walked out of the medical facility. I almost spent 6 hours here. Now it's time to go back. Fortunately, they didn't touch my storage ring and they also left the dagger on the table beside the bed. 

After pushing down these thoughts, I booked an air cab and waited for it. 

Shortly after, the air cab arrived. I asked the driver to head to the monster facility. 

A few minutes later,

The air cab dropped me in front of the monster facility. After paying the amount, I stepped out of the car. 

The monster facility is operational for a full day. When I walked inside. I quickly found the registration desk. 

After booking the monster carriage, I decided to wait for the driver to arrive.

Several minutes later,

A giant falcon left the air space of Viper City carrying me and the driver. The Giant Falcon is a Peak level Class-5 Monster. 

The Monster's speed was fast. If this speed continues, I will reach the academy soon.

Time passed,

A few hours later,

The Giant Falcon reaches the air space of Saw Scaled Viper Academy. It crossed the D-grade, C-grade, and B-buildings in a blink of an eye and reached the A-grade institution.

The Giant Falcon then slowly lands in front of the Academy's Monster Facility. 

I stepped out and bid goodbye to the driver before going back to my dorm room. 

Meanwhile,

Six hours ago, 

The shadow guardian appeared before the dean and began to report the incident.

A few minutes later,

Dean Rebecca's eyes flickered with a slight glint. She had expected this before. She knew someone might target Zack Lockwood.

But they had sent three Super Elite Warriors to kill Zack. 

Her eyes grew cold. It's hard to believe killers are lurking near Viper City. She looked toward the guardian and said, "Dispatch a team to Viper City. I want to know whether any other killers hiding nearby,"

Hearing that the guardian disappeared from the spot. 

Rebecca fell into deep thought. She is wondering whether this is the work of the academy or some other force. 

She also inspected the corpses of three Super Elite Warriors. They are certainly not warriors related to the academy. 

Is it a Killer Organization? A frown appeared on her face. There was a lapse in the intelligence network. She hopes this would not repeat.

Not only for Zack but for the sake of the academy itself. Zack Lcokwood is a warrior with an influential background. She doesn't want anything bad to happen to him. 

After two years, Zack will enter the inner post. Until then, she has to protect him at all costs. If not, the person behind Zack will destroy their academy. 

Thinking about the person means a cold chill went down her spine. Even the Supreme Elder is clear about the situation. 

Next time, she made up her mind to send 2 guardians to protect Zack. It's not guaranteed that Zack's enemy would always be Super Elite Warrior. 

The hostile force might even send powerful warriors to kill Zack.
