[+10 Xp]
The System prompted after he returned to his physical senses.
'Status'.
[Body. Enhanced Path L5: 580/2000
Space Path L4: 70/1000
Lightning Path L4: 465/1000
Morpher (Plantae) Path L4: 0/1000
Telepath Path L4: 10/1000 (+10)]
The fog providing Xp was a surprise, but given the state of things, he wouldn't be able to repeat it continuously. Still, it'd be a steady source of Xp.
At the same time, with the rest of his paths reaching Level 4, his actual combat power reached new heights.
Before he knew it, he had already grown into a little monster.
Enhanced path's physical capabilities served as the central pillar.
Space Path's powers gave control and teleportation.
Lightning path's allowed him long range attacks.
Plantae gave his stats significant boost in normal form. If he transformed, his stats would improve drastically. Especially his vitality.
A pity that stats after transformation weren't stacked with Enhanced's physical stats.
Then finally, Telepath powers let him perform illusions, hypnosis and mental attacks. More importantly, it allowed him to better guard against such attacks.
That didn't mean he could guard his mind against a level 9 Psychic. But if a Level 9 Psychic did attack him, he would be aware that he was being attacked.
Previously, he wasn't even aware that his memory was altered.
All in all, Varian satisfied with the improvements.
The only let down was that he couldn't use these powers completely in the duels.
With more enthusiasm, Varian returned to the banquet hall.
The large hall was filled with transparent hemispheres.
Some fights had enthusiastic audience.
Varian recognized a few familiar figures and sauntered to their location.
Williamson, the narcissistic senior was fighting a girl. He wasn't winning. In fact, with a swollen face, tattered clothes, he looked miserable.
'Isn't William second strongest in our academy? Who is beating him up so badly?' Varian wondered and focused on his opponent.
The girl had short hair, beautiful face and a slender figure. As she sent wave after waves of ice arrows, ice fists, she looked like a goddess.
It's just…her expression was abnormally chilly.
Varian couldn't hear the content of the speech, but he saw that the more William talked, the colder her expression turned.
"Who is he fighting?" Varian approached a young man in the back of the ground and tapped on his shoulder.
"Huh? Var-Ah, yes. I'm Lofer, from Nice to meet you." Lofer said with a smile.
Varian raised an eyebrow at the name but smiled politely. "Varian from Earth. It looks like they have a grudge?"
His question caused a few members in the front to look back, as if they were about to glare at him.
But after seeing it was the rumored Evander's disciple who was still only a first year, they shut up and resumed watching the duel.
Just one glare remained.
It belonged to a young man who greatly resembled the girl.
'Twins.'
"Gudong." Under Philip's gaze, Lofer swallowed saliva and bowed continuously.
Philip snorted and turned his attention back to the duel.
At that moment, Boo provided him the information about the twins.
Philia. Philips. Top geniuses from Venus.
They were both at high level 6, just like Williamson.
Philips was slightly weaker, but Philia was stronger than William or at least, they never fought seriously.
Lofer cautiously signalled Varian to a distance and whispered.
"Williamson…is pursued by Philia. He rejected her. Since that day, she is pissed off." Lofer explained the crux of the issue.
"Wait, what?" Varian recalled William's goofy face and his narcissistic words.
Then he checked out Philia. She was quite a beauty.
Why the hell did she pursue the narcissistic William? Was humanity really doomed?
And even if she was rejected, there's no need to fight….right?
Wait, what if she wasn't fighting because she was rejected?
"…what did he say during rejection?" Varian asked and the next moment, he felt his surroundings cool down.
A scorching gaze glanced in their direction.
Philip, the red haired twin brother of Philia literally spewed fires through his gaze.
Unlike Philia's cold expression, his expression was distorted in rage.
Lofer hurriedly bowed his head and whispered. "Never bring that up. Philia's loyal fans will fight it out with you."
He turned to look at the red haired young man and shuddered before turning to Varian. "Her brother is also very protective of her."
"Tsk." Varian snickered.
"…anyway, Philia and Philip Twins are from Venus. So, Williamson and Philia had many chances to interact during missions. They even performed several missions together.
After a few months, she confessed to him and he said…" Lofer paused and closed his eyes with a painful expression. "You're flat."
"Huh?" Varian was puzzled at first, but he glanced at Philia and realized she was quite lacking there.
Lacking was a big word. It was better to say nothing existed in the first place.
"He's courting death." Varian couldn't but smile as he recalled Ivy, the petite senior in Siarah's team.
She too was pissed off when this topic was brought up.
"Of course, she was pissed and fought him later on." Lofer put on an unbelievable expression as he said. "But…Williamson, on his social media, he said that Philia was fighting him because she can't let go of him….that she can't live without him."
Varian nearly laughed out loud.
'How can he be so shameless?'
He glanced at the injured Williams' injured and rolled his eyes. Even during the middle of the battle, he kept looking at Philia's chest and shook his head in disappointment.
'You deserve it!' Varian felt like facepalming.
'Neither Sia nor Sarah are flat, if anything, they're the opposite-eh, what am I thinking?' Shaking himself out of his thoughts, Varian thanked Lofer and was about to leave.
"Hey, you!" It was a rather rude greeting from behind.
Varian saw a young man with an enraged expression.
'Wait, this guy was standing besides Philips, so…'
"Let's have a duel. There are some people you shouldn't laugh at. My miss Philia is one of them."
A blue screen appeared in front of Varian.
[Body Level 5 peak]
"Oh yes!"
