He looks at Ben while dodging his attacks, although Ben remains standing there without moving an inch, Seito can feel there are obvious changes with Ben and the atmosphere around him. This is not that Dr. Ben he used to know. Then Ben looks at him with a rather evil smile...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the other training hall. Itsuki is now surrounded by a whole group of flaming monsters, however, if compared to the beginning of the training, his movements get more agile and his attacks get more powerful and accurate. He easily eliminated the flaming monsters around him with just a few moves.

Seeing Itsuki"s progress, Maria thought for a while and smile. Then he took out a feather-shaped pendant.

"Suzaku, want to come out and play?" said so, he threw the pendant into mid-air, the pendant transformed into a magnificent phoenix.

"Don"t be too rough to him, okay?" said Maria while giving the phoenix (Suzaku) a wink.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suzaku is *flying high up in the sky, with a pair of magnificent flaming wings. Then she opens up her wings, fireb.a.l.l.s shoot out from her wings, charging directly towards Itsuki"s direction, Itsuki barely dodged and blocked with his wooden sword. Then without giving any time gaps for Itsuki to prepare himself, Suzaku swings her wings and created a fire tornado around Itsuki which successfully engulfed Itsuki in walls of fire... "Ah... She overdid it a bit." said Maria, a bit surprised by Suzaku"s move.

Just when they thought Itsuki is totally trapped in the fire tornado and about to lend a hand, the fire tornado bursted by a magic force, Itsuki is freed from the tornado and totally unharmed, however, his left eye had turned red, but still remains his sanity.

Seeing this, Suzaku is a bit excited, and so she transformed into her human form, which is a fine-looking lady with golden hair in red traditional dress...

*The training hall is actually a huge dimension that is bigger than the building itself, so it"s totally alright for Suzaku to fly in that hall.

Meanwhile, old temple. The giant lizard is currently getting bound by a strong bind from Chris. While the two are examining the statue.

"Hmm... I seriously wonder why are they so obsessed about this statue." said Sky.

"Mhmm... To be honest, I seriously feel that, this creature here has more value than the statue. Especially the antlers. Looks like a good material to make another weapon." said Chris while looking at the lizard.

"You want it?" Sky asks.

"Mhmm..." Chris look at Sky with sparkling eyes.

"Uh... Let"s finish it off then." said Sky.

"Yes!" Chris is super excited.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back to Seito"s training room. Seito had slowly gotten used to the unseen force from Ben, he is now able to dodge, block, and even repel it perfectly. They continued these for about another thirty minutes, then Ben stopped his attack, ending this trial fight.

Seito who is really surprised at Ben"s ability is intrigued to know more about Ben"s power.

"Well, actually there is nothing interesting about my power, it"s just some tele-based power that every magic user could do." said Ben with a casual tone while wearing back his gla.s.ses.

"Is that so?" Obviously, Seito does not believe Ben"s answer.

"Well, you can ask those two when they are back, or you could ask Maria." said Ben.

"Ah... Ah! Talk about Maria. There is something I"m really interested to know... Is he really Sky"s Fiancée? I mean, those two... Are they really... Uhm..." Seito asked in a rather careful manner.

"Yes and nope." said Ben.

"Heh? What do you mean by that?" Seito asked.

"Maria was engaged with Sky, but they are not in that kind of relationship." said Ben.

"Hmm?" Seito is confused.

"Hmm... How should I explain about this? Let"s just say Sky did that in order to save Maria"s life from some stupid rituals believes." said Ben.

"Oh... Now I can imagine some images of it." said Seito.

"Why do I have a feeling that the images in your mind are quite wrong." said Ben.

"I bet Sei-chan is thinking of how sweet darling and I was huh?" said Maria, who just entered the training hall.

"Maria, have your training with Itsuki kun ended?" Ben ask.

"Well, not really, we are just taking a break, but Itsuki chan really has a lot of hidden potentials that yet to be explored." said Maria.

"As expected. He is the bloodline of Dracula after all." said Ben.

"Eh? Itsuki chan is Dracula"s bloodline?" said Maria, really astonished.

"Huh? Hold on. Don"t tell me you don"t know about it, even after all these mess and incidents!" said Ben, totally irritated by Maria"s statement...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later, the quest center. The crowd is having some drinks at the sidebar while talking about some gossips, most of them are talking about the two idiots that accepted the level X quest a few hours, some are even making bets in whether or not they can come back alive.

Suddenly, someone walk into the quest center, it"s the two idiots they are talking about.

*Something out of the story

Sky: "Dear readers."

Chris: "Hmm?"

Sky: "This chapter is meant to be released for webnovel.com."

Chris: "Oh! This matter. Yes, if you"re reading this chapter on another platform than webnovel.com, know that it"s an illegal copy diffused without the Writer"s authorization."

Sky: "As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer."

Chris: "Mhm... There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup... But not recommended."

Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."

Chris: "But look out, those sc.u.ms might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.

Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it"s cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
