Chapter 68: Blood magic
"Seems like you'll meet the Julius guy early, if you win your first round and he wins his, you'll get to beat him up" Damon said
"We won't meet Caleb or Albert, unless we made it to the finals"
-That's good- Diana replied
-Let's hope someone use a bond too, I want to help fight- Ace said
-I'm better at close combat, so I'll get first pick- Siege argued
-I won't join in, I'm too strong for any of them anyway- Diana said
"Bear academy, one of the minor ones, but it sounds fun" I smiled

"I finally met with the famous 12 year old captain, time to smash you to bits" the big guy said
"What's your name?"
"Did you not hear it when the announcer said it? Well I'll tell you if you beat me"
"I'll call you bastard then"
He was this big guy, 185cm tall, brown hair and brown eyes
"Dude, are you sure, you're not an adult? You're huge!"
"That's what they all say but I'm only a 2nd year, now get out your equipment, I'll get mine" he then took out 2 tall C-rank shields stab them to the ground
I took out a gloves resembling claws and a breastplate
"Strange choices, but I doubt your fist and claws can hurt a tank like me" he laughed
"Ready...start!" the referee shouted

Perseus then clawed his left arm and let blood flowed out of his arm
"What is Perseus doing?!" Eliza yelled
"Well let's trust him, the kid always have a plan" Luke said "He ask us to make it for him, so let's see what he'll do"
"Do you have any idea, Damon?" Mary asked
"Yes" Damon nodded "Prepare for a surprise"
"Well let's hope so" Axel replied nervously
"Hahaha, that's a new way of forfeiting" bastard replied
"Blood magic: Great blood sword" Perseus casted as he then warped in front of the guy, and slashed down on the shield and he kept going till he destroyed one of the shield
"Curse magic: Poison fog" Perseus casted
<I'm not too familiar with these spells yet, I still can't do it silently, but I will sooner or later> Perseus thought
"You'll also poison yourself idiot!" Bastard yelled but Perseus ignored him
His regenerative ability can heal him from any kind of poison, making him immune and has already healed his injured arm
"First spatial magic, now curse magic and blood magic! Just what else is he hiding?!" Eleanor shouted in her room with the king
"Seems like uncle invested well" the king muttered
Perseus then dissolve the blood sword to surround his arm and charge in, slashing with his claws and a large blood claw hit the shield
<Blood claws can be used silent, noted>
With rapid warping and slashing, and his opponent couldn't catch up with Perseus' speed, his blood flew everywhere, and Perseus caught some in his mouth and drank a huge amount.
"Come out of the smoke and fight me like a man, you coward!" bastard shouted while coughing
"I am a coward" Perseus replied "Cuz I only fight in a battle where I'm certain I'll win, but I'll turn off the poison if you wish"
The stage was then cleared of smoke
"Hehehe, I shouldn't have underestimated you but I can finally beat you properly" bastard chuckled but as he tried to get up, he know longer feel his arms and he couldn't move them
"What's the matter?" Perseus chuckled "Can't get up?"
"What the fuck did you do to me?!" bastard yelled
"Quiet down, but if I must, during our fight, I drank a lot of your blood, and let's just say, I can partially control your blood for a few minutes, you can cut them off and grow them back, then I won't be able to control it" Perseus shrugged "Referee, I don't think he can continue"
"Can you continue?" the referee asked
"...No, I can't" bastard held his head down "I surrender"
"The winner is Perseus Silver of Phoenix Academy" the referee announced to the crowd, who cheered loudly
"Have he ever tell you guys about these attributes?" Olivia asked
"No" Axel shook his head
"He didn't want to" Damon answered "He was afraid that you'll worry"
"Well he's right, but tell him to tell us next time!" Mary said
"I will do as you wish" Damon bowed
-I would've expected them to freak out a bit more- Perseus said after hearing from Damon
-I'm surprised too- Damon replied
-Imagine their surprise if they found out you reincarnates can't be control or hypnotized against your will- Dabria joined in
-They would worry less if that were to happen- Diana said

Professor Steel opened the door into Anthony Magus' room to see him accompanied by Professor Williams, Professor Blue and Professor White.
"Headmaster, did you see his match?" he asked
"Of course, but to think he hid it from us, ho what an interesting young man, Julius Nero should fear his upcoming match" The headmaster chuckled "Professor White, I'll give you a 10% raise, if he proceeds to win, make it 20%"
"Thank you headmaster" Professor White replied

"If only I can use blood magic too, would be an amazing skill to have as a vampire" Urie said
"I want it too" Draven agreed "Seems like he really got talent, let's just pull him to our side now, would save us a lot of time"
"Well just because we agree doesn't mean the top 2 agree, they barely even come" the woman voices said "I even tried seducing our number 2, barely got away with my life"
"Us 3 here is peaceful enough, but don't just seduce everyone you meet Alice, succubus are the strongest creatures in term of combat" Urie said "Besides even the others don't come so, I'll doubt those 2 would come without the others"
Alice was a woman around 172cm tall, has black hair and pink eyes with pale white skin, she is wearing a red gown
"Well let's continue watching the show, seems like this year's junior team has great potential" Alice said "But I can't wait to meet him after this, we need to accomplish our little goal first"
