'I'm..calm?'

Alexander thought to himself as he and his group wandered through the dense forest.

His breathing was calm, his steps were steady...and most importantly he wasn't...afraid?

'What is this?'

He questioned himself in his mind.

What could be the reason for this?

Could it be...

'That weird mushroom?'

He had figured out the answer pretty quickly.

Or rather you could say late because whenever Alan had come across these mushrooms, either he would stiff it in his Alex's Bag, Or eat it then and there.

And Alex had felt his breathing becoming more st.u.r.dier and his mind becoming happier.

'Does that mushroom increase serotonin levels?'

It had to be.

'If it's that...then.'

Cautiously turned his head to have a glimpse of Kyle, who was stuck as glue would to Sabrina, Bombarding her with questions.

And to his shock, he was calm even after looking at Kyle. Previously he would've shuddered at the thought of him.

But Now, he was as calm as water.

He looked ahead and continued moving when in the corner of his eye, he saw something around a tree moving.

*She!*

It was a venomous snake!

It launched itself from the tree towards Alex.

Its skin was so similar to the bark that it was almost unnoticeable.

And its speed after launching itself from the tree was tremendous.

Yet to Alex...it felt lacking.

It was like he could see the snake slowly coming towards him in slow motion.

'... it's not as fast as master.'

He thought, all during the time the snake was approaching.

And...as it was instinct, his hands made their way to the handles of his swords...and then

*Shwing!*

With the sound of Air being sliced apart, the body of the snake, now cut into two halves went along with it.

And as a little amount of blood splattered on his shoes. He calmly looked at the body of the disintegrating.

He then turned his head around towards his teammates, who were looking at him with shock except for Alan, who had a smirk on his face.

***

(Kyles POV)

I looked towards the piece of s.h.i.+t with shock on my face...

It was hard enough for me to see the snake make its way towards the piece of s.h.i.+t...and I couldn't even see his hands move, his swords coming out of the scabbards..and finally cutting the snake in half.

His attention was then brought to the shocked look of another person in their team.

As he watched her amethyst eyes widen in shock at what just happened he felt anger rising in him.

'...you're gonna pay for this you son of a b.i.t.c.h.'

***

(Sabrinas POV)

What..just happened?

I knew there was something special about him as he was the one who brought a doorstep away from death Alan Peccator to the infirmary.

She had studied him and his special traits, and skill level.

But...she had also studied and memorized everything about every monster up to the 7th floor.

And the one that just attacked was called the Tree Crawler.

A Highly venomous snake that had skin similar to the bark of a specific tree.

It would coil itself around the tree and would wait for its prey to come close and rapidly thrust itself towards the prey, if the prey was small it would swallow it a hall, however, if it was big it would first bite it and inject its venom into it and slowly wait for it to die before taking the prize.

Their speed was monstrous for a snake.

And she, who had enhanced her eyes with the lightning element couldn't see it...

'Just how fast was he?'

I questioned myself in my mind.

'Hmm?'

I suddenly felt the temperature around me heat up and I looked towards the source to find that the reason was Kyle, who had a red fiery aura around him.

'E+ rank skill, Blaze Empowerment'

I knew about this skill, it was one of the special skills that were not activated by thought alone and only activates when certain conditions are met.

And in this case, the condition would be anger.

'It's getting hotter.'

I thought the environment was already humid and now because of him, it was getting hotter and hotter.

It was annoying...first traveling in this muddy terrain, the humid weather, and then later kyles outburst was making me sweat even more.

But I didn't complain, or rather I shouldn't complain.

I hated being a liability, and I wasn't going to admit I hated it at all.

Besides, I'm not the only girl on this team.

I looked towards Amy...who was struggling even more.

'...well at least I'm not alone.'

***

(Alans POV)

,m Heh, Alex, you did well.

Well, he was the real student of the Sword Saint and the future Sword Saint.

Those ranks cannot be achieved without effort...

And Talent.

The former was the only one I had, while the latter was something I only wished to have.

And my talent in Spearmans.h.i.+p?

It wasn't mine. It was 'His'.

My talent with Mana?

It was all due to Mana Master.

I had no talent, not in this life or the life before.

Not in my life did I ever feel like a genius in something.

But...was it a subconscious thought?

That I believed the talents of this body...as my own?

Thinking deeply about it, I closed my eyes and continued to think even more closely.

I spread my mana out in a 30-meter radius so that I could feel if something was going to attack me during the time I was thinking.

And lo and behold, I felt something move 13 meters to my right.

I immediately covered my spear with Mana and swung towards the location.

*Shwing*

The spear blade went in a crescent arc and released a crescent shape arc of mana towards the location.

The man was so powerful and pure that it continued even after reaching its target, which was a poor tree crawler that messed with the wrong person.

*Rumble!*

The trees cut by the blade of mana collapsed and pretty soon all the team could see were trees falling with half of their trunks missing.

Now it was their time to be shocked.

Kyle gritted his teeth and the temperature around him rose even higher.

And all I did was not pay any attention to him.

Why? Because it would make him angrier and angrier until he attacked me first.

The cameras built in our suits were recording everything we did.

And there were rules, and there were loopholes.

The first and most important rule was that students were not allowed to engage other students in fights.

Doing so will result in disqualification.

But this also had a loophole, That the student was allowed to protect themselves if the attacker continued despite being disqualified.

So, all I need to was play the waiting game.

Until he attacks me first.

So I can rip his throat out.
