Isaiah realized he couldn't develop a Strategy to fight any of his classmates because he really didn't know what powers they possessed. Everything he knew was based on their introduction.
Isaiah started to look at his abilities and realized he didn't have any offense powers or attacks.
[Abilities]
Telekinesis 🔓-The ability to move objects with your mind. (Level 5)
Body Temperature Manipulation 🔓- (Level-3) Able to control the temperature of the user's body
Psychic Energy Manipulation (Locked) 🔒 - conditions not met
"Telekinesis can be used offensively, but that just depends on the situation. I'm going to need a weapon if I want to be effective. My best bet is to use my body temperature manipulation. Still, it's not going hard to close the distance between any of them because I bet most of them are long-range fighters. Ughh, what a drag," Isaiah said.
Isaiah looks at his abilities page again in his system.
[Psychic Energy Manipulation (Locked) 🔒 - conditions not met]
"I bet this ability is an offensive one. How do I unlock it, though?" Isaiah thought to himself
[Level cap and condition not met. The host must be at a current level, and a current condition must be met.]
"Level and condition!? Dang, they're treating this as an actual video game. Anyways Let me stop playing and get ready to go to the gymnasium." Isaiah said as he was going up the stairs to change.
5 min later, Isaiah was heading out of his tiny home and headed to the gymnasium.
So what do you think of our gym clothes? Lia said. Her voice came from behind Isaiah.
"They're tight. I'm not going to lie; it feels better than my Nike sweatsuit." Isaiah said, looking down at his clothes.
Isaiah was wearing a red and black hoodie. His sweatpants were also the same color. He looked like an athlete in a Nike commercial.
Lia was wearing the exact same thing. She also had her locks in a ponytail which showed more of her soft-looking clear skin.
Isaiah noticed that Lia's complexion looked even better in the sunlight. But, unfortunately, he didn't realize he was staring too long at her face.
"Are you alright? Wait, do I have something on my face" Lia said, whipping her check.
"Yea, a whole lot of fine as h***," Isaiah Isaiah thought to himself.
"Nothing, I'm just tripping," Isaiah said.
"Mhmm, I bet you're hoping you don't have to fight me because you know I'll bust you up. Lia said, tapping Isaiah's chin and making a sound effect.
"Alright, chill before I show you the monkey knuckle," Isaiah said, making some random hand sign. They both laugh as they walk into the gymnasium.
"Mr.Greenwood, I've decided to let you pick your own opponents today; all results will be the same. So show me what you got." Mr. De Rossi said, trying to sound hip.
All the other students were already in the gymnasium. They all looked to Isaiah for his response.
Without hesitation, Isaiah said. "Titus Stormwright"
Simultaneously, Mr. De Rossi, Titus, and Lia all smirked at Isaiah's response, all for different reasons.
[Quick Quest available: Defeat Titus Stormwright and receive 10 state points and 3 levels]
"This system must love me for giving me a quest with such amazing rewards . . . I've would have done for free anyways
—————-
…
The gymnasium started out looking like a regular gym with just a basketball court and some bleachers.
It wasn't until. Mr. De Rossi touched a couple of buttons where the light switches where the middle of the court transformed into a ring with a glass dome.
"Isaiah," Kat whispered.
Isaiah turned in Kat's direction
"That's because of magic too," Kat said, pointing to the arena.
Isaiah made a face 😑
"Don't even entertain that with a response," Isaiah said to himself in the 3rd person.
Isaiah and Titus headed inside the arena. Their eyes met once they got towards the center of the ring.
"You're a fool for choosing me to face you after you embarrassed me in front of Lia like that. Although I respect you as well for giving me another chance to face you once more." Titus said.
"So you do have a thing for Lia all the more reason to crush you right here again." insert emoji. Isaiah said with a smirk.
"Do you fancy the All-Mother as well, I see? Having her by your side makes you a King in your own right no matter the background one may have." Titus said with a proud look.
"Dude, why do you talk like you are in the theater or something," Isaiah ask with an awkward look
"The All-Mother, there goes that title again. Does Lia really play that big of a part in the Infinite Void? That would explain why she tried to give her blessing to anyone that could be a potential host. But this guy only seems to care about her title and not Lia herself. Isaiah thought.
"Do you not know Gaia is the mother to all monsters and gods even among the supernatural and Kaiju? She is a god that even other gods must bow down to." Titus explained.
"You say all of this, and you haven't mentioned Lia once. You only care about titles and power, which makes you unworthy of her. Starting today, I will be Lia's Protector, and if Gaia gets saved in the process, so be it. Isaiah said with his eyes glowing green ready to fight
[ The system is pleased and confused with the host's decision. New Quest available
Defeat an unworthy Suitor of Lia/ The All-Mother.]
"Remember the rules I told you previously, don't get so out of hand that I would have to intervene. This is a sparring match, not life and death." Mr. De Rossi said
Both Isaiah and Titus completely ignored Mr.De Rossi
"Teenagers." Mr. De Rossi said, rolling his eyes.
"Began!" Mr. De Rossi shouted.
Within seconds Titus opened his right hand and conjured a fire spear above his hand. He grabs it and launches it in Isaiah's direction.
Before it makes contact with Isaiah, Isaiah jumps into the air, making himself fly.
"I knew he could fly," Xavier said. He is a very powerful Telekinetic. I haven't met anyone our age who was already a level 5. So he must have gotten his powers pretty early."
"How early do Psychics usually awaken their powers?" Carly asked
"Usually the age we are now, 16 to 18 for the second generation. I've seen some awaken at 13, which is pretty rare. But Psychics typically awaken due to extreme stress in their life for first-generation psychics. Then their children awaken at the ages I just said. Xavier explained.
"What if you're a second-generation psychic to living psychic energy? Carly asked
"You're the brainiac, you tell me. But I think we both know the answer." Xavier said.
Carly smiled and said, " We do even amongst ourselves the true titles of Monster goes to Isaiah Greenwood.
