Reward - Upgrade of all skills to next level + 10 points allocated to all stats.
The system rang out in Min-ho ears as he threw a dagger at Chul slashing around his face, drawing blood from his right cheek.
"I am going to fuck you up punk" Chul said as he continued to shoot his fireballs at min ho giving me no chance to draw close to him.
The fight had dragged on longer than Min-ho liked, and the heat was growing immensely, threatening to swallow up both of them.
Chul was caught up too much in his rage to notice that he had burned up half of the remaining forest, making it almost impossible for his teammates to reach him.
Min-ho had tried everything he could to knock him out.
He was currently running around in circles dodging Chul fireballs, he had no long-range skill currently and was stuck between trying to close space between him and Chul which gave failed countless times.
"Listen buddy, I know you are a dick and have quite a grudge against me but for both of us it will be nice if you call it quits" Min-ho suggested.
"Over my dead body" Chul said as he crossed his finger.
His body glowed red almost immediately upping the temperature by a nudge, the hairs on Min-ho body stood alerting him to the upcoming danger.
He jumped backwards as the ground began to crack as molten magma burst out of the ground, gradually flowing to the surface.
Min-ho sighed as he jumps, landing on a high surface.
Chul was using a dimension skill that changes the environment to one favorable for him, the only way to stop him from killing everybody was to knock him out.
It was time to use his trump card.
Min-ho glared at the screen in front of him as he activated his new skill.
>>>>>Are you sure you want to activate the nine death movements>>>>>
The system rang out a warning.
Min-ho knew how dangerous this skill was, in fact it was his strongest skill when he was still in the Mafia realm.
It was created by the first and strongest assassin and the nerfed one was passed down to them, called the nine shadow movements.
But here was the original one which was the nine death movements.
It involved nine sword movements, each far more dangerous than the other.
The only disadvantage of this skill was it was far deadly for a skill that couldn't been stopped once it had gotten to the third movement.
But right now, it was his life or Chul and without hesitation he chose his.
"Yes" Min-ho replied the system.
Min-ho immediately felt strength flowing through his body like he was going to explode, he jumped off the tree as his movements were faster and sharper even far more than when he used burst.
With a single move, he was already in front of Chul as his katana sliced at his lower half, Min-ho had to control his strength as to not slice him in half.
His sword drew blood, pulling Chul back to reality as he grabbed his waist trying to stop the flow of blood.
Min-ho sheath his blade as he turned around to face Chul as the second movement killed in, he felt like his legs were going to burst from the immense strength flowing into them.
Min-ho brain couldn't keep up with the movements, he had mastered the nine shadow movements before, and he knew that to use it required several harden training to the body before one could even grasp the first movement.
But here he was using the original movement, without any real training. Min-ho feared that he would die first if not careful.
He made a mental note to focus on body training if he eventually survived this ordeal.
Chul screams of pain brought Min-ho back to reality as he just completed the second movement, using his sheathed blade to slash at his neck.
His blood crow was already active, halving Chul stats and increasing his damage by 50%.
Chul dropped to his knee as he spat blood, his eyes were blood shot.
He screamed as his body glowed even more, like he was going to explode.
"He trying to overload his magic space and kill both of us" Min-ho thought to himself as he immediately activated the third movement.
He crouched as he took a deep breath, as blood flowed to his eyes and ears, he could feel his bones crack as his muscles tightened around them.
He only left a blur where he previously was as he appeared in front of Chul.
From The third movement it contained a series of fast sword cuts in different direction as Min-ho hand moved so fast, leaving small cuts all over Chul.
Chul eyes whiten as Min-ho punched his solar plexus knocking him out.
But he could stop as he lifted his sword, aiming for chul neck in an attempt to end his life.
"Deactivate the nine death movements" Min-ho Commanded the system.
>>>>>Initiating command>>>>
>>>>>command failed>>>>
>>>>>completing sequence>>>>
The system replied.
Min-ho felt like his body was no longer his to control as his sword came down faster.
He suddenly stopped, a few inches from decapitating Chul.
>>>>>operation failed due to lack of mp>>>>
As Min-ho dropped his sword, he fell to the ground.
He felt dizzy as he heard the ping signaling the end of the competition.
He saw figures jumping into the flame as Ha-eun and Seo-yeon ran towards him screaming.
His consciousness slipped into the darkness, this was quite happening a lot and he hated it.
Min-ho body jerked back to life as he sat up on the hospital bed, he had several bandages around his body as he was along this time.
He felt thirsty as he reached for the glass of water beside his bed, drinking it up in one gulp.
He panted as if trying to catch his breath.
>>>>>side mission completed>>>>
>>>>>distributing reward!>>>>
"What the actual fuck?!" Min-ho screamed as the door was blasted open as Seo-yeon and Ha-eun struggled to come into the room.
"Are you alright?" They both asked in union as Min-ho sat up from the bed.
He ignored them, staring out the window.
His mind wandered back to the fight as he had lost control and nearly ruined all his plans.
Min-ho rubbed his chin for a while before turning to both of them, who were staring at him with worried looks on their faces.
"I am fine, never been better, in fact I just realized a few things and how navie I have been" Min-ho babbled on as if talking to himself.
It was an insane task that he was given, and in no way was he going to achieve such a task by acting sane or normal.
He bowed to himself that he was never going to be pushed to the edge against, not by anyone even the system.
He cleghed his fist in the air as a sign as he felt soft warm bags rest on his back as both Ha-eun and Seo-yeon hugged him from behind.
"Please stop pushing yourself too hard" Seo-yeon said, wiping the tears from her eyes.
"Yeah whatever she said" Ha-eun also added as she blushed turning her face away but not letting him go.
He turned to them, patting their head as he smiled.
Min-ho was rather surprised that they got along well, he was going to reveal to them eventually that he was not going to be bonded by one woman, but it seems they had already come to realize that themselves.
After spending a few days at the hospital he was finally discharged, he currently stood in front of the marble ranking board as he stared at his name
1 Ha-eun
2 kaneki
3 Seo-yeon
4 Duri
5 Hana
6 Min-ho
7 Chul
8 Hinata
He had jumped up ranking moving up by 10.
At least he was not on the list, and he could lie low as he had always done, or so he thought as he walked out holding his jacket in his hand.
Min-ho walked down to his new class, which was the elite class, he stood outside the door of a huge elaborate classroom.
He was pretty jealous while others had classes outside on the open field, here the elite class were basically treated like kings.
He adjusted his jacket as he heard his name.
"I would like to introduce a student who has successful ranked up and will be joining us from now on. I hope you guys are nice to him"
"Min-ho could you join us" The female teacher's voice sounded out from inside as he now stood in front of the others.
He could feel their death stare as if looking down on him.
"What an interesting year it will be" Min-ho said out loud, grinning as he took returned the stare.
