The Invincible Full-Moon System

The sky is getting dark, the windows in the training hall show the noon sun shone a golden light.

'Whatever Mr. Joseph is planning, I'll just deliberately lose. Although the students are clumsy with weapons, they should be way faster and stronger than a normal person", Rex thought after breaking off his eye contact with Mr. Joseph and get into the arena.

Laura saw Rex gets into the arena,

She then helplessly get on the arena too,

Laura thinks that Rex is not even an opponent for her, Her power can even rival the top of the class and now she has to fight a non-awakened person. It is an unhonorable fight for her, this can be called bullying.

'He's probably better in hand-to-hand combat judging from his military background, let's just overpower him with speed' She thought after hawking Rex from head to toe.

Rex has trained in hand-to-hand combat in the military before, His abilities can even match the veterans. He is confident to win in hand-to-hand combat but if magic is added to the mix, The favor will turn on him.

After they both stand face to face inside the ring, Rex suddenly has a flashback.

'Are you worthy enough to approach me?'

'A normal person like you should get away from me'

'Face reality, we're on a different level'

Rex gritted his teeth, the words that came out of Laura's mouth hurt him so much.

'I'm confident in beating the likes of Poru, If Laura is stronger than Poru then I probably have a slimmer chance to win', Rex thought.

His mind is clouded by his pride that keeps prickling him to not let it slide especially when he has the power to do so.

'Wouldn't it be nice if I can see the enemy's stats, wait, I can!', Rex thought. He looks at Laura with the thought of seeing her stats when suddenly a dinging sound was heard and a notification appeared just beside Laura.

<Laura Frostbrand>

Race: Human

Power: Rank 3 Awakened (Early) - Water Elementalist

Mental: 21

Strength: 9

Agility: 23

Endurance: 12

Intelligence: 30

When Rex saw Laura's status he started to sweat, 'I'm still lagging behind', Rex notices Laura's low strength and decided to use it.

Laura looks at Rex and saw the sudden change in his temper, She unconsciously takes a step back.

Rex lifts his head up and looks at Laura, Rex's eyes stare right into Laura's. He doesn't know why but Laura ignites something within him, his eyes seem to lit up like a fire.

'What is happening? Why is my body shaking?', Laura thought as she looks at her trembling legs.

Meanwhile, Mr. Joseph looks at both of them in silence. The corner of his mouth quirked up.

Other students also noticed the change in Rex,

But they still look at him with contempt underestimating Rex's abilities as a non-awakened, while Laura who is in the same arena as him can't help but become alert.

Suddenly,

<DING!!>

<Sudden Quest>

'Okay, it seems I have to go all out', Rex goes into his battle stance as he waits for Mr. Joseph's signal to start the battle.

The same goes for Laura, She didn't want to underestimate Rex so she started circulating his elemental properties into her body and her new katana.

Blue aura started to cover her whole body as water vapor comes out of her body,

"START!"

After the signal from Mr. Joseph both of them dash to each other.

Laura slashes her katana while Rex sent out a punch with his new battle gloves, Rex's arms bulge as he sent out his punch.

One can even feel the power by just looking at it,

CLANG!

The sound of metal colliding was heard from the collision, Laura is pushed back a little by the impact.

'What? Is her strength really way lower than mine? How come I can only push her a bit?', Rex thought in surprise.

Rex then realizes, 'It's this blue aura that is covering her, It increases her physical abilities just like what Benjamin and Poru do before'

While Rex is deep in thought Laura was also surprised, 'Did he just push me back? A non-awakened?!' she frowns and jumps back to make the distance between them.

The students that are watching widened their eyes,

"HOW?!", exclaimed one of the students.

"He's a non-awakened but he can match Laura?!"

Adhara also gasp in shock, 'He's really not simple, But I really can't feel any elemental from him so how?'

Laura snaps out of her shock, the blue glow on her body is getting intense as she bolted towards Rex vanishing from her spot.

Rex steps back and brings his hands up in defense, he can't follow Laura's movement!

Laura appeared on his right and sent a slash with her katana,

Rex brings his hands up to block the slash when suddenly,

BAM!

"Argh!", Rex grunted in pain.

The slash was a fluke! Rex got punched on his guts, He was pushed back a couple of steps to the right.

Laura vanished once again from her spot and sent another slash while Rex is recovering from the previous punch,

Rex's eyes widened when he saw a katana aiming at him just as he recovers from the blow.

The katana makes a swooshing sound as it grazed Rex's cheeks, Blood came out of his grazed cheek.

Rex brings his hands up to his face trying to guard his head,

Slash!

Slash!

Slash!

'Shit, I can't see her movements! She's aiming my blindspot!', Rex thought while he's being slash again and again by Laura.

'He has incredible strength but in the end, he's only a non-awakened person. This is his limit', Laura thought as she sent slash after slash.

Laura's speed is overwhelming, She is nicknamed the Water Vortex by the students because of her speed.

Laura appeared in front of Rex, "Surrender Rex, There's nothing to prove. Your talent is limited", she said. She flicks her katana, Rex's blood splat to the ground coloring the sand golden red.

Rex exhales a heavy breath as his eyes spark, His body is dripping with his blood but his eyes show no sign of yielding.

Out of nowhere, anger welled up inside him.

A dinging sound seeped into his ears as notifications appear,

<Night Time>

<Increased all stats by 50%>

Rex glanced at the training hall window, the sky is already dark with a crescent moon decorating it.

After hours of fighting between students, the day unknowingly turns into night.

The corner of Rex's mouth curved up, the anger within him somehow feels good that It's started to get addicting.

Laura raises her brows in confusion, 'Why is he smiling? Let's just end this'

Swoosh!

Vanishing from her spot, Laura appears behind Rex who is standing straight, and thrust her katana towards Rex's back.

'This is the end', Laura thought as she closes her eyes waiting for her katana to pierce Rex. But the scream of pain that she anticipated never come.

Laura opens her eyes and gasp in shock,

Rex held the katana by his hand!

The other students also suck in cold breath in surprise, Mr. Joseph smiles while looking at Rex.

'What?!', Laura wanted to pull the katana away but she's can't even move it as if the katana is held by god himself.

Rex pulls his hands back while inhaling, his figure is towering in front of Laura.

Laura was frozen in place, Rex's bearing intimidated her so much that her legs turn to jelly.

Rex's fist makes a cracking sound as he gripped it tightly,

"Ground Splinter!",

Rex launches his fist towards Laura, his muscle bulge with might as the fist descends. Rex now looks like a demigod sent by god himself with his towering figure.

Swoosh!!

The fist travels like a jet, it is so fast that only some students saw its trajectory.

BAM!!

The students look away in fright, 'Is that even a non-awakened person?!!', This thought travels into every student's head.

Whooshh!

The sand was blown by the force of the fist, The sand blocks the arena hindering other student's vision.

The sand slowly fades away as Rex's shadowy figure starting to appear and another person in front of Rex, the person blocks Rex's fist.

Rex was surprised after seeing who is in front of him,

Mr. Joseph steps in and blocks Rex's attack, His hands are covered by rocks as he grips Rex's fist.

"Rex, this is a spar. I already assessed both of your capabilities so get down from the arena now", Mr. Joseph said while smiling.

Laura fell to the ground behind Mr. Joseph with a dumbfounded expression,

Rex looks at Laura and decided to ignore her as he walks down from the arena.

Everybody makes way for Rex, They are all scared of him now. No matter how anyone looks at it, Rex is not normal.

They all nodded in realization, 'Well if he's really a normal person, There's no way he could get those medals'.

Rex walks leisurely when suddenly,

"REX! YOU DARE TRY TO HIT MY SISTER!"

A loud sound comes from someone behind Rex,

Rex turns his body to look at the source of the voice, It is Tom Frostbrand, Laura's brother.

"Eat my magic! Water Spike!", rows of spikes made of water burst from the ground aiming at Rex.

Laura noticed this and screamed, "Tom! DON'T!!"

Rex dodged the water spike by stepping to the sides,

Tom leaped towards Rex and sent out a punch while a faint blue aura covers his body.

Rex caught Tom's fist and stopped it midtrack,

"YOU BASTARD! LET GO!", Tom struggles to break free but Rex's grip is too strong for him.

Tom is just a rank two awakened, even his sister Laura can't beat Rex in terms of strength so how can a measly rank two awakened stand in front of Rex.

"Piss off!", Rex said as he kicks Tom's gut that sends him screeching away while holding his stomach in pain.

Blood leaked from the corner of Tom's mouth, His eyes burned with hatred.

Mr. Joseph didn't interfere when he saw Rex turns around and left Tom alone not intending to continue.

Mr. Joseph looks at Rex, although he is smiling his hand that is covered by rocks has a crack on it.

'He really is not normal'

Meanwhile, Rex left Tom alone with a smile on his face especially after seeing the notifications that appeared in front of him.

<DING!!>
