Wang Ya Se sat on the second floor of the villa.
Beside him.
Was the swimming pool.
Night had fallen, and the dim darkness shrouded everything.
His head.
Was still a bit dazed. The conversation he'd just had had calmed his furious mind, but then he thought about what his teacher had said, and cold sweat immediately broke out.
His teacher…
Who was he?
How could he know so much…
He remembered Rex's incident.
It was all so confusing, but the most important thing right now was the Rex incident. After his teacher's words, his mind felt much clearer. Thinking back on what he had done…
“Foolish.”
“To think that I, the great King Arthur, could be so foolish.”
“My heart was clouded with concern and anger. My spirit is not strong enough.”
He realized his weakness. His spirit was too weak, so he had been manipulated by Rex. He had known that Rex had been in Ultimate One Class for two years, yet he had expected those idiots to believe his words. It was simply laughable.
He…
What should he do?
As he pondered, a surge of fury suddenly erupted in his mind. The resentment of being wronged by Rex resurfaced, making his veins bulge and his aura shift!
Wang Ya Se naturally noticed something was wrong. But thinking that he, the noble King Arthur, had been played and framed by Rex, and those idiots still believed Rex over him, and wouldn't trust his good intentions, the rage within him intensified.
But…
What should he do?
Kill!
Fight!
Break through ten thousand points, how to fight?
He had already fused with the Excalibur Demon, reaching nearly ten thousand points, but breaking through ten thousand points would take a few more days. Plus, he realized Rex seemed to have changed. Every time he got close to Rex, he felt the Excalibur buzzing within him.
The reason he had discovered Rex was because when he first met him, the Excalibur buzzed. He only felt that buzzing sensation in the alley, so at that time, Wang Ya Se had almost confirmed that Rex was the one who had attacked him in the alley.
“…Do you want revenge?”
He stood there, and a faint voice suddenly echoed in his mind. It was a voice that seemed to hold hypnotic power, causing him to nod involuntarily.
“…They don't believe you.”
“…They fear you.”
“…They wronged you.”
“If so…”
“Destroy them…”
“Accept my power and everything will be solved. Those who wronged you will kneel and beg for forgiveness, those who don't believe you will pay the price. Just…”
“Accept my power.”
The hypnotic words rang in his ears.
The night wind rustled.
Leaves rustled.
He didn't know when, but his surroundings were enveloped in black mist. In front of the mist, a colossal shadow, the one he had seen before, appeared again. Those crimson eyes seemed to hold a hypnotic power, and the voice made him involuntarily sink into the words of the shadow before him.
At the same time.
Wang Ya Se felt his battle power index fluctuating constantly, surging from 9700 points towards 10,000.
‘9700… ’
‘9999… ’
‘10000… ’
‘11000… ’
In an instant, he had broken through to 11,000 points. The Excalibur's locking mechanism was continuously being undone.
“Do you feel it…”
“This is my power…”
“Just accept me…”
“And you will completely obtain it.”
“Revenge…”
“Revenge.”
The faint words, filled with seduction, echoed in Wang Ya Se's ears, along with the surging power within him.
At this moment.
Wang Ya Se felt like he was about to succumb.
At that moment, the dark force within him seemed unstoppable.
But.
“…”
“No.”
Wang Ya Se whispered.
In his mind, his teacher's words burned like fire in his heart.
In the deepest darkness, he seemed to see his teacher standing at the edge of the black mist, hands behind his back.
‘I can teach you skills, and any ability, but… ’
‘You need to solve your own problems. ’
‘If you learn skills from me, but can't solve these things, it just means you're useless, and not worthy of being my disciple. ’
Those words pierced his heart.
He, the great King Arthur.
Could he…
Not even solve these things?
Did he need to rely on others?
No.
He, King Arthur.
Did not need to rely on anyone.
Buzz!
The next moment, his eyes gradually regained clarity. As they cleared, he instantly activated ‘Swordsmanship’. A surge of power engulfed the dark force!
The Excalibur Demon had been shrinking back. Even when he used ‘Swordsmanship’, his speed was slow. But this time, the Excalibur Demon had invaded his being in order to make him fall into darkness. As Wang Ya Se regained his will, the dark force had not retracted in time and was absorbed by him.
‘9700… ’
‘10000… ’
‘11000… ’
As he absorbed it, his battle power index surged from 9700 points to 11,000 points!
“Idiot.”
“Absorbing you…”
“I can still obtain your power.”
Under the dark night, a smile spread across Wang Ya Se's lips.
“Rex.”
“Now.”
“You are the prey.”
