Good Luck - Shadow Hitman - Small Fight - Rage - Static Anger

"So, what have you come here for? What are you doing?"

"Oh, uh.... Uhm... I was sightseeing around the academy and happened to stumble here! Yep." The man said obliviously. It was obvious that he sounds very suspicious and he doesn't seem to hide it

"I see... Then nice meeting you!" Philip said as he started walking past the man. He ignored the man's suspiciousness as he find it funny when he does it intentionally

At this point, Philip raised his head and widened his eyes

'Intentionally?' Philip thought to himself and slowly turned around to look at the man

The man was standing as his body is half turned as Philip passed by him. He was smiling like a mastermind and his face exudes extreme confidence

Philip's eyes were dilating as he stared at this man. He feels that his body became restless yet his mind says that this person is a good guy

'This guy's dangerous!' Philip thought to himself as he fully turned his body back around

"Are you in a hurry? Are you a student of the Genesis Class?" The man asked with curiosity even though he knows the answer to his question already

"Yes, and yes. Why do you ask?" Philip answered and asked a question back without thinking. He became alarmed at this point as he was usually careful at what he says before blurting it out

"Well, do you know of a student named Lyre?" The man asked with curiosity again. The look in his eyes tell that he already knows the answer

"Yes, she's my friend and my seatmate." Philip tried to hold back his voice but he couldn't help but blurt out an answer. He even added unnecessary information that might bring him problems

At this moment, Philip became alarmed at this person because it seemed that this man gets the answers that he wants from him. Maybe it's an ability of his or just Philip's recklessness

Also, Philip noticed that, for some reason, he could read this man like a book. He could tell what he was thinking or feeling at the moment

He racked his brains trying to know why this was the case. After digging deeper in his memories, he remembered that he once can read body languages easily and he used this quirk to understand other people's feelings in a certain subject or scenario

Was this an ability? Perhaps it was awakened when his abilities were overloaded, along with Supreme Sense of Measurement and Extreme Self-awareness. The ability of Body Language Translator

======================

[Body Language Translator]

Rating: G

> The ability to read certain languages, emotions, and thoughts from observing the bodily movements of an existence

======================

"I see, can I join you to your destination? I have nothing to do right now anyways." The man nonchalantly said as he shrugged his shoulders and raised his arms. He wanted to know more about Philip and his relation with Lyre

"Uhm... N-- Yes, sure!" Philip was about to deny the man only to allow him anyways. Philip was surprised at himself. Surely this is the work of the man's ability

Philip began to walk along the hallway and the man followed beside him. There was a minute of silence in the air

Philip was annoyed at the man's ability. Was it a mind controlling ability? Or is it like a conditional ability? It was like it was controlling him to do things that he doesn't want to do. He hated that the most

Anger surfaced inside of him. He decided to use all of his abilities so that the man can't control his thoughts and actions. He used the resurfaced ability of Body Language Translator. He even went as far as to peek at the future for at least 5 seconds to prepare to answer the man's question. He is also preparing his fingers to snap if push comes to shove and he asked about his abilities

A dense aura formed around Philip as he walked along the hallway. His eyes are also widened because of the boiling anger inside of him

Of course, the man noticed this change but he was unfazed. He believed that his ability will save him if something dangerous will happen, is what Philip's Body Language Translator is telling him

"So, how did you met Lyre?" The man asked with curiosity. He seemed curious is all

Philip didn't see anything wrong in the question and he answered honestly, "I bumped into her in a corner and he almost fell over. Good thing I caught her and our faces were near each other"

Philip closed his eyes in bewilderment and shock when he blurted out the unnecessary pieces. Anger rose once more as he is angry with himself at saying too much and at the man's ability

"Oh? Are you boasting? That's fine, women aren't into me anyways..." The man said with sadness. It was obvious that he was joking and he is aware that girls of all ages find him attractive

Philip's anger rose even higher at that statement. It was clear that this man looked like a real life anime boy that every woman can fall for. Yet, he is saying this absurd statements. He was about to counter the man only to stop as he is seeing 5 seconds into the future

"I heard that Lyre's ability is Songstress and it's a newly discovered type of ability user, a summoner." The man said as he learned about the results of Lyre's Mystical Test. He was intrigued and his demeanor changed as he said his thought out loud, "But I wonder what is the ability of the person that destroyed the facility in the north?"

At this moment, an audible sound reverberated throughout the hallway as Philip snapped his left fingers at his side. A burst of condensed energy swept both of them as the adjacent walls and floor cracked

He then turned his head towards the man with wide eyes and swirling pupils due to anger. His dense aura grew larger and began to overwhelm anyone in its presence

The man jumped back after feeling the burst of condensed energy. Chills went through his spine after he saw Philip looking at him with anger and an overwhelming aura covered the opposite wall. The man immediately regretted his action of trying to pry for confidential information and he felt that he woke up a sleeping monster, is what Philip's Body Language Translator is saying

"Are trying to pry about my abilities?! Do you know that even the Headmaster doesn't know about it?!! Yet you're here trying to be all mysterious and trying to be clever with your smooth and playful voice?!!" Philip said with anger as the walls and floor started to vibrate

He snapped once again and an audible sound reverberated throughout the hallway despite the rumbling noise. A burst condensed energy once again swept the both of them. This time, the man had to cover his head as he can clearly see the burst of energy originating from Philip's left fingers

"I see!! So your ability was neither a kind of mind control or a conditional activation... What are you doing here?!! Why are you in this place?!! Embodiment of Good Luck?!" Philip shouted after he learned about the true identity and ability of the man

======================

[Embodiment of Good Luck]

Rank: S

> Title given to existences that symbolizes good luck itself. They are lower than the concept of good luck or Good Luck Concept. They also harbor the absolute favor of positive probability and can get almost anything that they want

======================

The man was wide eyed after his identity was revealed when no one knew his true ability. He then smiled and exuded extreme confidence. He was calm despite being overwhelmed by the overflowing emotions from Philip

"Oh?! How did you find out the true nature of my ability?!" The man asked with calm but piercing eyes. He doesn't seem to be afraid at Philip's show of power

An audible sound reverberated throughout the hallway after the man asked that question. Condensed energy swept through the both of them

"You're trying you luck once again! Let me tell you this, you won't be able to use it when you're dealing with me!" Philip shouted after he snapped his left fingers once more. This time, the whole Core Academy shook because of the continuous small use of Fate Control

Pratically everyone inside the Core Academy felt the vibrations. Yozu, the Guardians, the chilling and roaming members of the Comfy Cartel, the professors, and the noisy Genesis Class. All of the students in the Genesis Class stopped whatever they were doing and became wary of the shaken walls and ceiling

"I see... It looks like you have some sort of ability that can alter the course of time and space..." The man clutched his chin with his right hand and looked up, as if he was thinking. "Perhaps it's some sort of a reality manipulation or alteration of fate?"

The man grinned at Philip, it's as if he knew what sort of ability Philip has. With his ability, it was not hard for him to identify his ability after experiencing the burst of condensed energy three times and seeing him snap his fingers. He can also deny his good luck and the only explanation for that is that Philup can see into the future and he can change the course of it

The man was excited upon discovering the ability of the most confidential information on the most mysterious person in the academy. He raised his arms to his sides like he was sort of a mastermind. He opened his right eye and took a peek at Philip

He expected Philip to be in despair or in panic after someone learned one of his deepest secrets. Instead, he felt chills in throughout his body and he felt deep fear after a long time

Philip did not react after the man almost specified his exact abilities. The only thing that is drifting in his mind is that this man is dangerous and that he must die

He didn't care what happens after he killed this man. The most important matter is that his abilities must be kept secret at all times, Fate Control and Future Vision

The negative emotions inside Philip has bursted out of the container inside his body. It fueled the overwhelming aura behind him and it enlarged that it covered most of the hallway. The lights dimmed and darkness covered the both of them

The man couldn't see anything as he slowly stepped back until his back was against the wall. He was very scared at this moment. He wished for a specific person to save him. Of course, eventually, his good luck will activate... Eventually

"It seems you have really crossed the line... You don't know when to stop do you? Don't you have a common sense as to why I keep my abilities a secret? I know you're doing this for your Cartel, but you just f*cked up!" Philip said with a deep angry voice and it echoed through the darkness as he lifted his two right fingers in front of him and straightened it

"You know... During my Mystical Test, I had this intense affinity with the sword for unknown reason. I also want to learn about it. But based on my understanding, I should be able to use the concept of a sword! I want to test it." Philip said with an ominous voice. His voice sends chills to the man inside the darkness

He then horizontally swung his pointed fingers at the man like his fingers were a sword inside the hallway of darkness. An invisible line came out of his fingers and swept through the air towards the man like a flying blade

Despite not seeing in the darkness, the man couldn't help but fall to the floor so he luckily dodged the flying blade which made a cut on the wall

The man was in fear as he clutched his head. He seemed to have utterly regretted his actions and he might lose his life. Anyways, there's a reason why he was brave at confronting a sleeping monster

"CORPSE!!" The man shouted for help and for someone in the darkness. He couldn't help but call for help because he needed it and he was sure he's going to die here

As Philip was about to swing another swipe, a figure emerged from the darkness itself and rushed Philip. The figure's right eye was glowing a bright red. Then, a hand clutched the entirety of Philip's face and he was pushed back as his head slammed into the wall and then his body. The wall formed cracks around Philip as he was slammed quite forcefully

The darkness dissipated as Philip's brain was jogged due to the impact. The darkness shrunk back to Philip and light started to appear in the hallway

"What have you gotten yourself into this time, Tom?" The figure became clear after light enveloped the hallway. The man named Corpse spoke and his voice was as deep as 30hz of sound and it rumbled anyone's soul that heard it

Corpse was a well built man with well defined muscles throughout his arms, legs, chest, and stomach. He wears a black vest with rolled up white polo long sleeves and black pants. He also wears a red bow on his neck and an ominous black mask that has fangs and rabbit ears. The left part eye of the mask has been torn, revealing his red colored eye and ruffled hair. The left rabbit ear is also gone but the right ear is still intact

Philip's mind was rumbled and jogged once again. His body vibrated as Corpse spoke

"I was trying to probe for information regarding the person that Lyre took a liking to. You know? Jerry and Brad said so!" The man named Tom explained to Corpse about his actions

"You shouldn't have made contact with this person, you are severely underestimating him. You also shouldn't have pushed him into a corner, and because of this, we'll suffer the consequences." Corpse said while his voice was fluctuating because of the absurdity of the situation. He immediately read the atmsophere and understood the situation as he stil has Philip's head pinned on the wall

"Oh... Well, you already got him, don't you? What could possibly go wrong?" Tom obliviously and nonchalantly said as he saw Philip unmoving body pinned on the wall

"Tom, you don't understand!! You shouldn't have met him in the first place!" Corpse raised his voice, it's as if he's worried about something

"What's wrong? He's already pinned down! He can't do anything anymore." Tom still kept being oblivious. It is currently unknown if he's acting stupid or he is actually stupid. In reality, he was nervous but still calm for some reason. It seemed that he was used to having the ability of good luck to save him in every predicament

"Haaa... Tom--" As Corpse sighed and was about speak, Philip grabbed his muscular arm and clenched it

Corpse was surprised and quickly turned back his head at him while his right eye glowed bright red behind the mask

Philip was overswept by a mysterious force and he lost strength in his hands and released his grip on Corpse's arm. His arms and legs began to shake uncontrollably from the influence of Corpse's right eye

"See?! He has a strong willpower! I don't even know where he got this strength after being slammed on the wall!" Corpse said with surprise as he pointed to his arm that was just clutched by Philip. His arm had grip marks. Despite Corpse having hard and iron muscles, Philip left grip marks around his arm

"You're right! I guess I really made a bad move, huh?" Tom said as he accepted defeat, he found Philip as actually dangerous. Looks like his good luck has saved him again

An audible sound reverberated throughout the hallway as Philip snapped his left fingers. His limbs that were shaking uncontrollably suddenly stopped and his arms flicked back to grip and clutch Corpse's arm

Corpse's danger senses screamed as he glared at Philip's widened eye in the middle of his fingers. His red glowing right eye intensified

"The feeling of Terror, huh? I was caught off guard at first but good thing I quickly controlled it because their is a much more powerful emotion that terror." Philip said as he gripped Corpse's arm harder

Blood started to drip from his hand. It was not from his hand, but from Corpse's arm where the blood vessels were popping and tearing apart as the skin was flattened

Philip was able to crush the arm due to his Pain Denial. The pain that he received from being slammed on the wall was being converted to strength. It was enough to crush the strong and durable muscles

Due to panic, Corpse pulled Philip's head and slammed him again in the wall. He then slammed him on the floor two times. Philip's back head was bleeding profusely but the pain is keeping him awake. With pain constantly accumulating, his strength is also increasing

Philip tried his best to bring back the pain that he is receiving back to Corpse's arm so that he could release his grip from his head, but to no avail since Corpse is stubborn

Philip tried another method and he grabbed Corpse's face with his right arm and gripped it harder. Well, this may be the decision that he will regret instantly

As he grabbed Corpse's face, both Corpse's eyes glowed bright red and he screamed. Strength surged from his body and gripped Philip's arm that was gripping his head with his left arm

Corpse slowly pulled Philip's arm away from his face and it was apparent he is struggling, but he managed to pull it away. He then scrramed again as he punched Philip's stomach which made Philip lose his strength due to the sudden immense pain

Nonetheless, with this immense pain, he clenched his left fist and palmed Corpse's right arm that was gripping his face

Corpse's arm snapped backwards and he lost his grip at Philip's head

But Corpse quickly recovered and clenched his right fist. He struck Philip's head which made him slam to the ground head first and that almost made lose his consciousness

He quickly stood up as he resisted to scream from the accumulating severe pain only to be met by a fist in front of his eyes

He quickly reacted and tried to slap it with his two pointed fingers due to reflex as he moved his head to the left

He succesfully deflected the fist as a flah of light slashed between Philip and Corpse. Blood then spurted from Corpse's fist and arm after being sliced by Philip's "finger sword" unconsciously

Corpse screamed and the hallway reverberated from his deep voice. He was about to launch a right kick at the half kneeling Philip only to be launched backwards by an unknown force. He was swept back at the end of the hallway

Philip looked back and saw Yuze with her posing with her right leg bent and her right arm extended forward with two fingers pointing at Corpse

"Yuze!" Philip shouted as he was glad that Yuze was here

Yuze used her Shift ability to blast Corpse away from Philip before he even kicks Philip

"What's happening here?" Yuze asked after he quickly shifted herself and arrived towards the source of the energy bursts earlier

"Trouble." Philip calmly said despite the accumulated pain inside of him. He said one word and he knows that Yuze will undesrtand immediately

But Yuze didn't understand immediately as she was instead confused. She tilted her head to the side and didn't understand him

Philip's eyes widened, Yuze was not like this. He then turned towards Tom, who was standing with his back on the wall as he was smirking while looking at Yuze

Anger exploded inside Philip and he swung his two pointed fingers at Tom with extreme power. He was about to make a full swing only to be stopped by Yozu's hand when he suddenly appeared in front of him

Yozu then smacked Tom's head with power and he immediately lost consciousness. He didn't became lucky enough to avoid losing his consciousness

Then, Corpse immediately came back as rage filled his eyes and he screamed, "He touched my mask!!! He must die!!!"

He then ran through the hallway at fast speed. His rage increased further after he saw Tom's unconscious body on the corner of the wall and the floor

"Unfortunately, I can't let you do that." Corpse was surprised after he heard Yozu's voice on his left side. He tried to throw a punch on his left but he immediately lost consciousness after his neck shoulder was forcefully chopped by Yozu from his right

Corpse then fell over on the floor as he slid across it next to Tom

Yozu then suddenly appeared in front of Philip, "Are you okay now?"

"No!" Philip's anger is still high and he wanted to vent it out. Especially he hasn't released the accumulated pain inside of him yet

Yozu reached his hand on to Philip to help him stand up. Yuze snapped out from his daze and came closer to Philip

"Just give me a second." Philip did not accept Yozu's hand and stood up by himself in a struggle

"Please take a step back." Philip said as his body began to shake as it couldn't handle the contained pain anymore

Yozu immediately understood what Philip was about to do, especially after seeing the state of his body. He grabbed Yuze, along with Tom and Corpse and teleported to the Infirmary to drop off the two Cartel members. He then teleported inside the Genesis Class and dropped off Yuze. Then he hurriedly teleported back to where Philip was

Yozu expected Philip to either scream from pain or wreak havoc in the hallway, but what he saw made him confused

Philip was just standing in the middle of the hallway, unmoving. His arms and legs were shaking violently as he bent his limbs. It looks like he was taking a dump as he clenched his whole body. Veins popped along his cheeks and forehead as his face turned red

He then breathed out air in the most calm manner after clenching the entirety of his body. He stood up straight and closed his eyes

Yozu couldn't believe his eyes after he saw what happened next

After a few seconds, wind swirld around Philip as the visible particles of Mana started to gather around his body. The Mana danced around and sway around. Then, cracks in the air appeared like a broken glass. It's a good thing that these cracks were small and number a few

Philip then clapped and clasped his hands together as a burst of wind swept through the hallway like a shockwave. The visible Mana dissipated and the cracks in the air disappeared

Philip succesfully unleashed all of the accumulated pain and manipulated the unnecessary emotions lingering in his head. He unfortunately didn't manipulate the emotion of Anger though, so he is extremely angry at this moment

He then scratched the back of his head only to get wet by his blood. He pulled up his hood and wiped the blood off. He took a mental note to not wear the hood because it's doused with blood

He then looked around and surveyed the aftermath. Crack walls and floor, sliced wall, small debris everywhere

"It's a small commotion, no need to be alarmed." Philip commented to himself before he walked through the hallway. He is now going to the Genesis Class

As Philip left the vicinity, Yozu appeared from the point of the fight. He also surveyed the destruction only to shake his head

"This part of the hallway is unrepairable." Yozu commented as he thought that the destruction was worse than expected

He then walked away with his left hand behind his back. His left arm has violently shaking after he stopped Philip's fingers that he was swinging

"He's becoming more mysterious and mysterious."

With his title as the Mystical Numb Master, he won't be able to feel pain, even if he was stabbed or mutilated. But this time, he felt pain for the first time in a while as the entirety of his left hand was bleeding and his left arm was left with several cut marks that creates coagulated blood

He disappeared from the vicinity and teleported back to his office

Little did he know, there was someone watching the whole situation unfold from outside the window in the distance. The figure disappeared and dashed away

Philip met one of the most dangerous personality of the Comfy Cartel. It seems luck was on Tom's side as he found Philip

Now, what is this Embodiment of Good Luck? Why is Philip extremely alarmed at that name and ability? What do Philip know?

A hitman has emerged upon Tom's cry for help and looks like this person has common sense. Too bad he lost it due to rage

Now, what will happen inside the Genesis Class after that "small" commotion and sincr Philip still has his anger
