âWHICH ONE OF YOU IS REX?â
The students in class 1-C knitted their brows, some students canât take the attitude of the four groups of guys that came to their class causing a ruckus.
The class president, Aldo, stands up from his chair abruptly, âWho do you think you are?! Arrogantly coming to our class bringing trouble, you think the other students will just sit idly?â
Hearing this, one of the guys in the group that seems to be their leader scoffed, âI am Lucas Platchiâs subordinates, You dare offend me?â
Aldo gritted his teeth after hearing Lucas Platchiâs name, he threw his face away and sits back down.
âHa! Thatâs what I thoughtâ, the leader of the group said disdainfully.
Laura and Adhara glance at Rex who is scrunching his face uncontrollably, they both thought that Rex is regretting his decision in becoming Rosieâs boyfriend. With that thought, Laura and Adhara smile pleasantly.
Their thoughts were absolutely right, Rex is regretting his decision.
âSigh, Do I really need to fight these kids?â, then suddenly he remembers something.
âSystem, Does fighting that group gives me Exp?â, he asks.
<yes></yes>
The system replied plainly as usual.
Rexâs mouth quirked up, âIt seems being the scapegoat of Rosie is a blessing in disguiseâ
He stands up, his move attracted the groupâs attention.
âI am Rex, Letâs take this outside shall we?â, Rex said confidently.
In the military, he always plays rough although he never fights with an awakened. He used to fight with an experienced fighter so he felt wronged fighting with these kids, He doesnât like to bully other people!
âHo, How bold of you. Saving your face in front of the class? Very well then, Follow usâ, the group leader said.
Rex nodded his head and follow them.
They brought Rex into an abandoned corridor that is isolated, the place has nothing in it except for a couple of locked doors.
âLucas wanted us to beat you up but he is a generous man, instead of getting beaten up you can just strip naked and apologize to him while groveling. How bout it?â, the group leader said playfully followed by the other laughter.
âWow even in the military, this kind of thing will never happen because we are focused on the same enemy. I canât believe kids these daysâ, he shakes his head in contempt.
Looking at Rexâs calm face, the group is infuriated.
âIf you want it the hard way then so be it. You beat that guy upâ, the group leader said while pointing to the square-faced guy beside him.
âGladlyâ, the square-faced guy said with an evil smile.
His body glows bronze as he walks towards Rex, heâs cracking his knuckle to look intimidating but on the contrary, Rex found it funny.
Rex look at square-faced guy stats and smiles,
<rey blockhead=ââ></rey>
Race: Human
Power: Rank 2 Awakened(Early) â Earth Elementalist
Mental: 3
Strength: 8
Agility: 6
Endurance: 4
Intelligence: 10
Looking at Reyâs stat, he canât help but chuckle.
âIn terms of power I should be around Late Rank 2 Awakenedâ, he thought after calculating the rough number of a Late Rank 2 Awakened.
Rex then refocus on Rey again, âHis body emits bronze aura, it should increase his overall stats by a bit just like Laura didâ
Just as Rex was thinking, Rey bolted from his spot and sent a punch to Rex.
Rex easily parried it and smack Rey on his head, he didnât take it seriously because of the difference in stats and experience. In front of Rexâs eyes, his move is sluggish and looks so much like an amateur in Noob Box.
âYou Non-Awakened! Stay where you are!â, Rey said with anger.
Hearing this Rex scoffed, âWhy would I let myself get hit by the likes of youâ
Rey is angry, he runs with all his might and musters all of his power to swing down with his hands.
While he was swinging down, Rex notices that a dull sword made of rocks started to form on his hand.
Rex brought his hand up to block it,
BAM!
The sword didnât even do anything to Rex, It just stopped mid-track by Rex easily.
Rey was speechless, âWhat the? How did a Non-Awakened block my attack?â
Rex looks at Rey in the eyes and said, âYour movement is sluggish which means you didnât even train in close-quarter combat at all, Let me give you a piece of advice. Keep this up and you will die first when facing a supernaturalâ
After saying that, Rex twists his body and sent a kick to Reyâs chest.
BAM!
âWhack!â, Rey screamed in pain feeling the air inside his lungs was forced out by the kick as he screech towards the group leaderâs feet.
The group leader was dumbfounded, He thought that this is an easy job given by Lucas but who wouldâve known that this Non-Awakened trash can be this strong.
<defeat early=ââ rank=ââ two=ââ awakened,=ââ obtained=ââ 150=ââ exp=ââ></defeat>
Rex smiles after reading the notifications given by the system, âIt seems beating people up can raise my level quickly, Letâs take advantage of Rosieâs pursuersâ, he thought while making a plan to harvest Exp.
Rex turns his body and looks at the three guys left, âCome on, I ainât got all dayâ
The group leader was infuriated by Rex, âYou two, beat him hurry up!â
The other two guys with similar strength to Rey nodded their heads and dash towards Rex.
They both envelope their bodies with red and blue aura and rain blows to Rex who is easily dodging and parrying them.
For Rex who is an expert at a close-quarter fight that can even fight veteran soldiers, these kidsâ attack patterns are simply childâs play.
Easy to predict, Easy to parry, Using no brain just swinging.
Rex quickly shoves his fist on both of their faces and knocks them out, Rexâs strength is stronger than Laura who is an Early Rank Three Awakened so these kids canât take one of his punches.
The group leader steps back in fright, Just like that three of his subordinates fall.
<defeat early=ââ rank=ââ two=ââ awakened,=ââ obtained=ââ 150=ââ exp=ââ></defeat>
<defeat early=ââ rank=ââ two=ââ awakened,=ââ obtained=ââ 150=ââ exp=ââ></defeat>
Rex doesnât want to waste his time, He checks the group leaderâs power just in case,
<brock rigen=ââ></brock>
Race: Human
Power: Rank Two Awakened(Mid) â Earth Elementalist
Mental: 9
Strength: 11
Agility: 9
Endurance: 9
Intelligence: 14
âMiddle-Rank Two Awakened eh? Letâs just end thisâ Rex thought after looking at Brockâs stats, not even worried a little bit.
Rex turns into a blur as he appears in front of Brock and sent a punch,
Brock snapped from his daze, âStone Skin!â
Brockâs skin turns dark brown, Rexâs punch landed on the group leaderâs stomach.
BANG!
Rex felt his hand hurting a bit, Brockâs skin is pretty hard but his pained expression tells Rex that he felt the punch too.
Rex observed Brock and noticed that his headâs skin is not brown but his natural skin,
Before Rex can engage once more, Brock moves first.
He dashes towards Rex, Rex brought his guard up waiting for Brock to make his move but suddenly Rexâs right leg was gripped by rocks that make him unable to move it.
Brock arrived in front of Rex and sent a punch aiming Rexâs face,
Rexâs eyes flash and he grabs Brockâs fist, The fist was stopped by Rex.
This shows the difference in their strength, Brock canât even push Rex back even a little bit.
If Brockâs strength is on par with Rex, he might push Rex back which will result in breaking Rexâs right leg.
But reality proves that he is not strong enough,
Rex held Brockâs hand and his eyes flash with ferocity, Rex headbutted Brock right on his nose.
BAM!
Brock covers his nose in pain, his nose is broken by Rexâs headbutt. he fell to the ground miserably with blood leaking from his nose.
Rex didnât sit idly and punch Brock on his face sending him to dreamland right away, Rex is trained to not show any mercy so his instincts make him knock Brock out.
After looking around, Rex smile with guilt, âDid I go overboard?â
<defeat middle-rank=ââ two=ââ awakened,=ââ obtained=ââ 200=ââ exp=ââ></defeat>
<level up!=ââ></level>
</increase>
<obtained 3=ââ attributable=ââ stats=ââ></obtained>
After hearing the notifications Rex smile in delight, âItâs all worth Itâ. Then he decided to check his stats to immediately attribute the stats to the mental stat.
<stats></stats>

<average human=ââ adults=ââ have=ââ 5-7=ââ points=ââ for=ââ each=ââ stat=ââ except=ââ for=ââ intelligence=ââ></average>
After attributing his stats, he looks at the four unconscious guys and decided to leave them be.
âThis university is developing awakened to help the frontline, a fight between students is probably a normal occurrence, Rex thought while walking back to his class.
While walking, Rex sigh, âThese kids, even though they are greenhorns and fight like amateurs they can pose a threat to me because of their elemental power. I envy them for being an Awakenedâ
Arriving at class, Rex walks back to his seat leisurely under the studentâs gazes and Mr. Joseph.
âWhere are you from? You know that class already started 5 minutes agoâ, He said with a warning tone like a proper lecturer.
Rex smiles and replies, âI just got back from the toilet, my stomach hurts. I wonât do it againâ, he said lying his way out.
Mr. Joseph scoffs and lets Rex go after reminding him to not repeat this again.
Rex sits on his usual seat and found that Adhara is sitting beside him,
Adhara looks at him curiously and asked, âDid you beat them up?â, she said while knitting her eyes in suspicion.
âDidnât you hear what I just said? My tummy hurtsâ, Rex replied lazily.
âYou definitely beat them upâ, she nods her head agreeing with herself.
Rex felt wronged when Adhara didnât believe his lie, âI just talk to them okay?â, he said coming out with another lie.
Adhara didnât believe him for one second and said once again, âYup you beat them alrightâ
Rex decided to ignore Adhara when suddenly notifications appeared in front of him,
<ding!!></ding!!>
<quest completed=ââ></quest>
<make sure=ââ that=ââ rosie=ââ will=ââ keep=ââ the=ââ userâs=ââ identity=ââ to=ââ avoid=ââ future=ââ problems=ââ></make>

<obtained 3=ââ attributable=ââ stats=ââ></obtained>
Rex was surprised, Now that he thinks about it the quest was completed now rather than yesterday when he talks with Rosie.
âThat annoying girl, so you just made up your mind after knowing I beat those guys earlierâ, Rex thought while shaking his head thinking about Rosieâs annoying behavior.
