Apex Predator! (2)

Toto ran towards Link, his Air boost made him fast and intimidating, but Link just stood there, smiling.

When Toto was right in front of him about to make contact, Link teleported right behind him, smacking him on the back of the head.

By doing that Link meant for it to be more of a taunt, he wanted to smack him around a bit, the result he was expecting was for Toto's head to lean a bit forward and that's it, but what happened shocked him.

With a loud smack, Toto was flung forward, his head slamming to the ground with a loud thud. Making him lose consciousness.

The fat kid froze for a bit, surprised by how quick his friend was defeated, but the thing is, Link was as shocked as he was.

"Oh no" The fat kid muttered, disabling his spell. The walls started melting into the ground, opening a way for him to run through.

"Haha" Link laughed, he understood why his hit yielded so much strength "It's that Skill isn't it, all that pain was not for nothing" He looked up, staring at the Kid attempting to escape.

Wosh!

Link appeared in front of him, pulling his arm back and punching him in the stomach.

"ARGH" He let out an odd sound, signaling that all the air left his body, he was sent back a few feet. Losing consciousness easily.

*Whistle* "Now this is impressive" Link said, moving towards the two students and claiming all their items, after taking what few he needed for his list, Link sold the rest.

*****

"Is that him?" A man with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse spoke, he was a centaur, one of the professors in the Academy. He stood next to a woman, watching what looked like a screen showing the Town, focused especially on a boy.

"Yeah, he's pretty good isn't he?" She asked.

"Good indeed, the kid didn't even use any sort of Magic or spell but he managed to cause that much damage with simple attacks, that's impressive strength." The centaur spoke, he was a Warrior, a giant sword hung on his back, which is why he admired people with strength.

"That is a surprise for me as well, I saw great talent in him for Magic, I didn't think he had that in him as well, but I already claimed him so don't get any ideas" The woman said, looking at her colleague. She stood up, the light of the screen shone on her, revealing a familiar face. It was Saya.

*****

Link's journey was pretty easy, many Students tried their Luck with him but they ended up losing everything. With a full bag containing all what the List asked, Link only focused on collecting as many Points as he could. But he was no thief, so he only focused on whomever attempted to rob him.

Ding!

A loud sound echoed through the Town, signaling the end of their little shopping trip. After selling what little extra Items he had Link headed back to the Dorms, finding all Students lined up in front of the door. As he stood amongst them he was met with hateful glares.

"These guys want to rob and not get robbed huh" Link thought to himself, he wasn't really bothered by the looks so he just ignored them, he was in a good mood after all. On his card Link managed to collect over 1100 Points.

"I'm Rich" He muttered to himself excitedly.

…

"Alright boys, let's see what you got" Tommy spoke, next to him were a set of tables with a staff member on each.

Students slowly started showing their Items, and with each one the staff took note.

"Is this some type of Test?" Link asked.

"Yes, I think so" Fei answered, Link met his two new friends a little after getting there.

As the number of Students started to slowly decrees, it was finally Link's turn.

"Show me your List please" A pretty woman asked, she looked at Link's average clothing, not expecting much off of him.

"Here you go" Link smiled and handed her his List, Then he sat his bag on the table. After she checked the List and the contents of the bag, she was impressed, Link had all the items asked of him without one missing. She was used to seeing the Noble kids having better results since they received better education and training, but Link now was the first student to have all items.

"You must have robbed so much from the others" She said, she knew that if one needed to purchase all the items on the List, 50 Points is not enough, but one would need 200 Points, some items were pricier than the others.

"I only took from the ones that tried to take from me" Said Link, still smiling politely.

"Do you have extra funds in your card left?" She had to ask this as well.

"I do, here you go" Link handed her the card, after she inserted it inside a small machine, she was shocked.

"1145 Points? How did you get so many, was there a mistake" She spoke in a loud voice, catching the attention of all present.

"What? 1145 Points? How many students did he rob?" One of the students said.

"I know right, what is happening"

"No way, look at him. His clothes are ones owned by peasants, there was definitely a mistake."

"You're right, he was probably brought here to take care of the town's gardens"

"Hahaha"

Hearing the commotion, Tommy approached.

"What seems to be the problem Sally?" He asked the woman with a frown, she made a mistake speaking loudly like that, that was unprofessional.

"Sir, i apologize, please check this out." She said, handing him the device with Link's card.

"I don't understand the issue, there was no mistake with the Point distribution, i've kept monitoring the Town as things were taking place and i can confirm that this student successfully beat up and 'hospitalized'" Tommy looked at Link as he said that word "Many other students, so please take note of his achievements and move on to the next student" After finishing his words Tommy walked back to where he was.

"Wait, so that means this peasant got those Points from people?"

"That's kinda scary"

"Did you hear him say hospitalized?"

"How did he manage to do that? Who trained him?"

Sally took notes and moved to the next students embarrassed, she has been working in this place for years and that was the first time she made such a mistake.

"That kid is scary, how did he do all of that and still be in great condition?" She thought to herself. Link managed to collect so many was because of his clothes, when other Students saw him, didn't matter if they were Nobles or Commoners, they came up to him in an attempt to take what he has, which ended in a disaster for each and every one of them.

Link went back to his dorm room, he took a shower and got some rest as he checked his Skills Window.

<The Story of Genes> <0 / 200> <1> <Apex Predator>

"So this thing took 100 permanent Mana Points from me to Level Up?" Link thought "Considering my new fitness, I think it was worth the trade, I can get them back later anyway. I hope I don't have to deal with all that pain every time I Level it Up or it might be an annoyance."

Link noticed as he was fighting all the others, that not only his strength increased, but his speed, healing and also his senses. He was able to hear better, see clearer and even smell someone from a great distance.

"Too bad i can't get my hands on Beast Mana Cores in here" Link continued "I should buy some new clothes, my current clothes don't look too good."

After going out of the dorms, Link found the Town crowded once more.

"I was right, that was indeed some sort of test" He headed towards a store he had his eyes on since before.

'Jenny's Armor Shop'

It was a big story with so much armor on display, from leather to heavy metal armor, she had it all. The owner was a big lady named Jenny, she's a blacksmith that was hired by the Academy for her detailed work.

"Welcome, did you see something you liked?" She smiled towards Link, inviting him inside.

"Yeah, do you have any Enchanted Armor?" Link asked, this was a term he learned from Fei. Enchanted equipment are ones imbued with a certain spell, depending on the Level, Mana is required to activate the spell inside the Enchantment.

"I do, what Spell do you need? And what type of Armor?" She asked as she led him inside.

"Leather Armor please and one imbued with Clean and Repair" Link answered, these two Spells are one of the most popular ones. Clean is as the name states would keep the Armor Clean. The Repair Spell is one only available for the Leather Armor and average clothing, since it is not functional for Armors and Weapons made of metal or steel, if one required something similar to be Enchanted on their Sword or other steel Equipment, a higher tier Repair is needed.

"I do have one indeed, one of my best works as well." She showed Link a beautifully crafted Leather Armor displayed on a wooden stand. It was Black in color with some detailed decorations.

"How much?" Link asked.

"1000 Points please" She said with a smile.

"What the F*ck"
