Rise of the Crusader

"Mhmm…" Elisa let out a soft moan amidst the passionate kiss.

She held his face, as he sought after her lips in her frenzied. And the classiness of how Raphael went after her caused Elisa to begin to lose control of herself.

As the kisses then got more intense between them, Elisa placed her hands on the back of Raphael's head. Unknowingly, she gripped his hair tightly, causing him to groan a little.

And as punishment, she got bitten on her lips.

But while that was considered to be a punishment, it wasn't one for Elisa. She tightened her legs around Raphael's body, sucking his lips roughly.

"Uhn~!

Those painful soft moans, Elisa let out as Raphael reciprocated the rough kisses, were simply blissful.

His tongue sought her tongue, as he sucked it to taste her entirely. The thread of saliva was making and breaking as the aroused bodies didn't wish to stop.

However, after a long time, both of them stopped. They painted heavily, and staring into the other eyes, lust was evident from both sides.

Elisa slowly leaned towards Raphael, as she was to make contact with his lips once again, a light cough suddenly rang out.

"Ah-Ahem"

It wasn't from one of the students, but instead from the instructor in front of them.

And as of this moment, Elisa realized what exactly she had just done. She turned towards Raphael with shock written all over her face.

A second after, she slowly got down from Raphael. Elisa lowered her head and cowered behind Raphael.

As for Raphael, he adjusted his clothes, then with no tinge of shame on his face, he stared at the man in front of him.

"Damn!" Luis exclaimed. "But, I must say, you handed your sister to the right person."

"Someone who would fulfill all her unfulfilled desires because she clearly has many." Luis said, "You can already tell that he treats her right and after three months, she can't wait to get some of him."

I bet he gives it to her dirty,"

Surely, no brother would like to hear certain words about his sister, and this was one of them.

"Bastard!" Mason blurted.

With then a stomp from Mason, he transformed into a 14-meter-tall titan immediately.

And as Luis saw Mason dashing towards him, a sly smile appeared on his face. He then cracked his knuckles, and instantly, he transformed into a 15-meter-tall giant.

Luis and Mason were no strangers to one another, they had, in fact, fought together in the tournament.

Mason had the power to use the trait of a titan, while Luis possessed the power to use the trait of a giant.

The both of them fists were about to collide with one another when Jeremy hovered in front of Mason.

This, of course, didn't stop Mason from launching a punch forward, but his fist met an obstacle.

Bang!

Mason staggered a few steps backward, and as he stared at Jeremy, there was terror written on his face.

A full-force punch from Mason was stopped with a causal finger from Jeremy. Jeremy had done it so easily that it seemed that Mason's full strength was worth nothing.

"It's my turn." Said Jeremy.

Mason's eyes twitched, "Y-You…" He stuttered, and a second after Jeremy spoke, he struck a blow at him.

Before the attack, Mason could either elude the attack or send one of his forwards, but as Mason was to do the latter, he found himself unable to move from where he was.

Terror swept through Mason's body, as death flashed within his eyes.

There was a destructive force in that punch that Mason and the others felt that if he didn't dodge the attack, then death was inevitable.

With only a few inches separating him from coming in contact with Jeremy's fist, Mason shut his eyes closed, he desperately wanted to make a move, but the strength to do wasn't there.

Time seemed to pass very quickly, but after a few seconds and no damage of any sort occurred to him, Mason's opened an eye.

He stared at his surrounding, and his eye came in contact with Raphael, his other eye sprang open.

"Raphael," Mason mumbled in a low voice.

Clearly, he hadn't been expecting Raphael to intervene in the fight.

With Raphael standing on Mason's shoulder, and Jeremy hovering in front of him, the atmosphere got intense very quickly.

Whether it was the students, the instructors, or the guards, they all had their eyes on Raphael and Jeremy.

Even though Jeremy had lost to Hilario, and it denied his chance of facing Raphael in the tournament, there was no doubt that it was one of the most anticipated fights in the academy.

Raphael stared at Jeremy with a neutral expression on his face but likewise did Jeremy.

They both had eyes on each other, however, after a few seconds, Jeremy's lips curved into a sly smile, and he said.

"Nicely done, Raphael."

It was all eyes on Jeremy, and as he balled his hand into a fist, there was excitement written on the majority of the people in the surrounding.

However, the excitement soon died known by Jeremy's following words.

"Now, isn't the time, but surely, we will meet soon enough," Jeremy said flatly.

With his hand placed behind his back, he landed on the ground and then moved to the murderer division.

As the other student stared at Jeremy, so did Raphael. His thought was unknown, but briefly after he moved to the murderer division camp, Raphael turned towards Mason.

"You're too weak," Raphael stated. "I did this because of Elisa, there won't be a next time."

Followed by those words, and Raphael touched the ground.

A stern expression emerged on Mason's face, he knew Raphael was saying the truth, but it still sounded wrong when it was coming from him.

Mason heaved a deep breath, before then readjusting to his human form.

Meanwhile, once Raphael walked back to Elisa and the rest, Elisa held his hand, "Thank you so much." She said, and then pecked him on the cheek.

As for Bane, Aiden, and Devon, the three of them kept staring at Raphael, grinning like a demented child.

"Ask him."

"You ask him.

" No… You ask him."

It would be a lie to say Raphael wasn't aware of what the three of them intended, but he instead chose to keep a straight face.

He ignored them and moved his eyes to the instructor who stepped forward.

"It seems to be like you all aren't interested in what we have to say, and would prefer to go ahead, fighting with each other. So, we will go straight to the point."

Followed by those words, Atticus turned towards Lucien.

"Open the city."

With then a nod from Lucien, he clapped both his hands together, and a door appeared a few meters away from where it was.

The students were still staring at the door when a paper flew towards them.

"Some of you might have already learned about it from your seniors, but for those who don't, the second year is going to hold in a cataclysm period."

"And it's precisely what you have in mind."

Atticus paused, "The papers in your hand will explain everything you need to know, as well as to survive in there."

"I wish you all best of luck, and also hope, we get to meet each other again." Said Atticus.

"I suggest you have a few moments with your friends, colleagues, acquaintances as well as instructors because in their… It's survival of the fittest."

Atticus had made it seem like they had some time to spend, but it wasn't even up to five seconds after he spoke that the door opened.

After the door opened, a majority of the student tried to look into it, including Raphael, but regardless of how far, they looked, it was void of nothing.

The door didn't seem to lead to anywhere, but they were all sure that was false, as it wouldn't be in front of them if it were useless.

"You will move in based on division ranks, the elite division is first, then the murderer division, and so on…" Atticus said.

He moved his gaze to where the elite division students were, "You go into the city, one after the other."

However, none of the students moved a step from where they were, which then prompted Atticus to say, "Not to worry, no harm will befall anyone of you."

"Even though the city is full of danger, the academy is generous enough, and you will have a day to prepare for the worst."

Those words manage to comfort the student a little, most were already aware of what lay in the city, but at least they would get to settle in there before it begins.

"Raphael, I believe you must choose the ten students who would live in the mansion with you, isn't it?" Atticus.

Though Raphael was the one who was asked the question, Bane, Aiden, and Devon had a huge smiles on their faces.

Raphael shook his head, "I don't have ten, but I have selected a few people."

One of the tournament rewards included a mansion in a new-age city, and as the students recalled these details, they couldn't help but wish they were the ones who won the tournament.

In a city where there was no shelter, and swarmed with overwhelming metabeasts, looking to rip one to shreds, it was certainly good to have a mansion that all beasts were prohibited from.

"Remember, survival of the fittest. Only the strong, and ruthless will survive, so show no mercy in there." Atticus said flatly.

"Goodbye!"
