Chapter 46 Start Of Tournament
At Ochyra University Hospital,
"Where is the doctor? I can't believe I need to wait this long to even see my son's corpse?!", Duncan Platchi is pacing left and right.
His hands are clenched so hard that it turns white,
His face is dark and one can see that he is fuming with anger because the places around him are in a mess,
A woman beside Duncan is weeping in tears, "We didn't even get to give him an immediate proper burial"
As the two of them are getting more frustrated the longer they wait, suddenly the white door in front of them opened.
An old doctor dressed in a white coat emerge, "I'm sorry Mr. and Mrs. Platchi, your son's corpse is infected so it needs to get purified before getting buried, I hope that you can understand and follow the..."
Before the Doctor can even finish, Duncan flung the doctor to the side before he rushes into the room,
A Human that is killed by a rank 3 Supernatural or above will need to be purified, the Supernatural mana that is residing in the corpses can infect normal humans and makes them fall sick even if the burial is way deeper than the normal depth.
It can cause normal people to mutate into an abstract being, growing a limp horn, growing another head, abstract skin color change, and many more.
Awakened can also mutate but it is unlikely,
Because of it, the UWO has issued a law to purify corpses killed by a rank three or above Supernatural.
In the room, Duncan found Lucas that has a gaping hole in his body, Lucas's body is already been purified and ready to get buried.
Looking at his dead son, Duncan's eyes turned red as his brain gets clouded with anger.
He grips the old doctor's collar and lifts him up to the air, "Let me see the people that do my son's autopsy, I want to confirm if he's really dead because of a Supernatural or...Someone", Duncan said with fierce eyes.
The doctor can only wail in the air and nodded his head.
Somewhere in the Supernatural territory,
There is a castle on a rocky cliff that is almost as big as Ochyra University, the castle looks old with little to no light decorating it only torches were placed in certain places.
Trees around the castle are dead as mutated crows sit on the tree branches,
The castle is made of huge bricks that are constructed beautifully, there is only a one-pathway to enter the castle with a cliff on either side, the castle gives off an eerie vibe and mist is covering the surrounding.
Inside the castle, a beautiful woman that looks in her early twenties is lying on the bed reading a book.
The woman has pale skin with red ruby eyes, she has a little fang that is still growing and claws that also still growing.
She's reading a book called "Walking Amongst Humans", she is wiggling her legs with a happy expression as she read the book.
Then suddenly, she closes the book and went out of her room after wearing a nightgown that covers her athletic and curvy body.
She walks along the big corridor, there is almost no light in the corridor but she seems to walk perfectly fine.
Every time she passes, the guard wearing a light red combat armor salutes to her.
The woman only waves her hand gracefully every time she gets saluted, she seems to be used to the guard's behavior.
After walking for five minutes, she arrives at a huge door with a purple vampiric rune in the middle.
Knock! Knock!
She knocks on the door before the door opened,
"Calidora Dear? What's wrong?", a middle-aged man comes out of the door and asks with a soft tone.
Although he's using a soft tone, the king tattoo on his neck emits pressure but it is contrasting with his soft behavior towards Calidora.
"Father, Let me go to the human territory. At least let me see the battlefield to broaden my view", She said with pleading eyes.
Her red ruby eyes are shining as she said those words, it is mesmerizing to even imagine such red eyes she has not less seeing in person.
The middle-aged man was surprised before he replied with a cold tone, "No!"
Hearing the middle-aged man answer, Calidora already expected it and said, "Father, let me see what are we fighting against. If I'm caged in this castle, I won't become an outstanding Vampire"
The middle-aged man seems to fell into thoughts, he seems to hesitate in making a decision after all Calidora is his one and only child.
Unlike humans that can bear a child as long as they can,
Female Vampires can only give birth to one child, after giving birth to a child then their reproductive organs can no longer be sustained.
Because of that, Vampire is really possessive about their child.
If somehow their child got killed, it will hurt twice as much as when a human lost their child.
It is especially true for female vampires, upon having their child killed they will mercilessly find the culprit and hunt them for the rest of eternity.
When the middle-aged man wanted to decline again concerning his wife, suddenly a woman that resembles Calidora but looks more mature appeared from behind.
"You can go", She said calmly.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was surprised, "But, it is dangerous especially on the battlefield"
The woman smiles and replies, "Just let her go, but you need to take at least three peak rank-four guards. I will ask the Haltija to send three guards to accompany you"
Calidora jumped in delight, she then runs to her mother and hugs her, "Thank you, mother! I will always be careful!"
The woman smiles while rubbing Calidora's head, "But you will not go to the battlefield, you will only go to a sieged human city"
Calidora didn't even hear what her mother says as she nodded her head repeatedly.
Back to Ochyra University,
"AAHHHH!!", A high-pitched scream was heard from room 13.
Rex jumped from his sleep because of the scream and look at his side, he saw Rosie covering her body with a blanket with a shocked expression.
Rex scratches his eyes still feeling sleepy and asks, "What is it?"
"You...You...How did I get here!", She asks still screaming.
Rex with his half-sleeping state got annoyed by Rosie's scream, he put his hand on Rosie's mouth, "Quiet down will you, just go to sleep", Rex said while closing his eyes.
Hearing this, Rosie was put into a whole new level of shock, 'How can he be calm about this? Did he do something to me?!'
Fearing the possibility, "AAHH!!", Rosie screamed once again as the wind mana concentrated to her hand and blasted in Rex's direction.
WHOOSH!!
Rex who is still in his beauty sleep suddenly got pushed hard by the wind flinging him to the wall,
THUD!
Rex crashed to the wall still in his pajamas,
He jolted awake because of the pain, he scratches his head in pain, "What the heck? How did I get here?"
"THAT SHOULD BE ME WHO IS ASKING!!", Rosie shouted from the sides surprising Rex who is sitting on the cold floor.
Rex glance at Rosie and suddenly his memories came back, He raises his hand to Rosie who is gathering another attack on her right hand, "It's not what you think!"
"YOU PERVERT!!", Rosie said as she sent another blast to Rex.
BOOM!!
Rex dodges to the side, "Calm down, it's a misunderstanding!", Rex said trying to calm Rosie down.
The wall thankfully is enhanced by elemental properties, so Rosie's attack doesn't leave a dent on it.
"WAIT!", Rex screamed as Rosie gather another attack.
"AAHH!!"
"THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME!"
Five minutes later, Rosie finally calmed down after Rex explain it to her while dodging her attacks, she also trusts Rex after checking that her clothes are still intact and she didn't feel funny.
"Oooh I fell asleep, you should've said so from the start!", Rosie laughs not feeling guilty at all.
Rex got annoyed and replied, "If you didn't attack me and wake me up calmly then this will not happen"
"Oh shut up! For someone like you, it's a miracle that you didn't do anything to me", Rosie replied while tying her hair to a ponytail.
Rex was speechless, just before he wanted to rebut, Rosie already gets up from the bed and enters the bathroom.
'Did that girl think this is her room, entering MY bathroom like that', Rex thought furiously.
After half an hour or so,
Rex and Rosie are ready to go to class, they both look matching with their black t-shirt and jeans.
They stare at each other for a moment before turning their heads the other way, 'I can't believe I just slept with Rosie, I wish I can turn back time', Rex thought trying to remember all the details he got from yesterday.
While Rosie on the other side is blushing, 'I just slept with Rex, what do I do...'
The both of them got out from Rex's room and was surprised to see Adhara in front of the door wanting to knock,
Rex and Rosie were also surprised, "Good Morning!", Rex greeted Adhara awkwardly.
Adhara locked eyes with Rosie as Rosie's shocked expression turns into a smug, she then leans to the side and kisses Rex on his cheek,
Chup!
"Thanks for yesterday night! I'll see you later Rex", Rosie said as she waves to Rex cutely before leaving not forgetting to cast one last proud look to Adhara.
Rex touches his cheek in shock, a smile bloom on his face but immediately disappeared after getting a glare from Adhara.
Rex whistles and avoid Adhara's gaze before Adhara storm off the other way,
Looking at this, Rex was guilty, 'That Rosie!! She's a damn troublemaker!', he screamed inside his head while cursing Rosie.
Rex finally walks alone to the class,
Arriving at the class, 1-C students already lined up neatly in front of the class with Mr. Joseph in front.
Rex rushes to the line and follows them,
Today is the day of the tournament that will determine who will represent Ochyra University in a sparing tournament in Faraday University.
Rex needs to win this because he has a deal with the Rosiana Family to help Rosie,
The students arrive inside the training hall, the arena is already set as a barrier covers it.
There is already packed full of students, all of the Awakened from class 1-B to 1-D already gathered in the training hall creating a crowd of students inside.
Rex was chilling on the back when suddenly he felt someone is looking at him, 'Hmm?
He glances to his back and found a guy staring at him intensely,
Rex notices that the guy is familiar, he tries to remember from where when suddenly it came back to him.
'That's Gregg, I suppose he hates me because I almost take first place in the field test', Rex thought before he then stares back at Gregg.
Gregg slide his fingers at his neck signaling 'You're dead' to Rex,
Looking at this, Rex was speechless, he then laughs at how outdated this Gregg guy taste.
Gregg's veins bulge as anger creeps in him, he was angered by the audacity of Rex that can laugh after getting his threat.
Rex turns his head away from Gregg slowly, 'So, who is my first opponent?', Rex thought as he looks at the matching board being rolled in front of him.
Then suddenly,
<DING!!>
<Sudden Quest!>

Rex was delighted after getting the sudden quest, he gazed up to the matching board when suddenly a voice seeped into his ears.
"First Match, Rex Silverstar Class 1-C against Gregg Eerbo Class 1-D. Students that is being called please step up to the Arena"
Rex and Gregg was surprised before their surprised looks turns into an evil smile,
