Chapter 35

Lucky 35

A gasping person came out of the sinkhole, Devon was sweating hard as he huffed and climbed up, he pushed his body just to live. He reached the top and escaped the sinkhole, his face was pale perhaps because of the tension and fatigue. It was fortunate that Devon was a veteran Vindicator and he knew how to climb stiff mountains. He grabbed the wall before he completely fell. The sinkhole was indeed endless and he couldn't see the bottom. 

"It's good that I grabbed into something or else I will die and will never see the sun again."

He wiped the sweat on his face. He was sweating bucket and he looked exhausted. 

"Sir Calix is really powerful, truly befitting as the son of the Steel Legion. He made a hole in the ground using his willpower alone. Every hair on my skin is standing in awe. He's a monster."

Again, just like earlier, Devon still misunderstood Calix's power. All that happened earlier was luck and nothing else. However, Devon was too stupid and he wouldn't accept that kind of justification. Calix is strong and made a hole in the earth, then used it to trap Devon in a bottomless hole. 

"As expected of him."

He laughed and admitted his loss. He looked around and realized that his companions were on the ground and unconscious. They had injuries but they were not fatal. Although their mouths are filled with bubbling saliva and their eyes are white.

"Still, he's a good person and didn't kill anyone."

Devon acknowledged Calix and he was impressed that no one died today. He lay on the ground and decided to rest. Climbing up to the surface was tiring and he spent all of his energy. 

"Good luck, Sir Calix."

Good Luck, Calix definitely has that power on his side. 

Devon closed his eyes and fell asleep. He snored just like the others on the ground, he had a relaxed expression as if he didn't fall into an endless pit. He was happy to meet someone like Calix, the next pillar of their country. He was proud to be defeated by him. 

'I didn't regret it, it is an honor to lose against Calix Romoel.'

He was sleeping with a smile on his face. 

...…

...

…

As for Calix that Devon revered so much, the man was now rummaging his room just to find his X-battlesuit. Calix understood that he would die if he doesn't use a battlesuit. His enemies are Term Attribute users and they could kill him with just a snap. To prevent that from happening, Calix had to use his battle suit. 

He would gain superhuman strength and speed, Calix experienced how his power works and he was confident that he could do it. His Luck would keep him safe. Still, it was better to be sure. 

"Got it."

Calix saw the case under his bed, it was color black and didn't have anything special. The X-battle suit was designed as armor for males or females, the suit would adjust its proportion depending on the user. The X-battle suit was one of the newest suits from Cudgel Tech. It was ironic that Calix would use it against them. The X-battle didn't have any special features since it was made to be used by common soldiers. Still, its fighting power was above any average suits. 

Calix didn't think anymore and immediately pushed the button. The suit dissolved and morphed around his body, it looked like a jet black spandex suit. Because of the suit, Calix's muscles from shoulder to feet were expressed well and looked great. 

He looked like a player from the manga called Gantz. The only missing thing was the weapon and he would definitely look like a player from Gantz. 

He clasped his palms and sensed his body, he felt powerful as the suit maximized the capability of his muscles. Every fiber of his muscles was invigorated to its utmost limit. Calix felt that he could destroy a wall using his bare hand. 

'So this is the power of a battle suit…'

Actually, to use a battle suit, Calix should have an authorization card first, a license, which he didn't have. On top of that, even if Calix had a battle suit, it was illegal to wear a battle suit in public because battle suits could be used to perform illegal activities. 

In short, if Calix showed this armor outside, the authority would come at him. 

However, Calix didn't care about anything right. He was anxious and determined to save Scarlett. 

"I have to do it, I will save her."

Calix started walking and opened his window which is on the third floor. Calix was not afraid and jumped down, the battle suit absorbed most of the force, and Calix was not hurt at all when he landed. 

He started running towards the location where Young Master Chen was staying. The thugs said that Young Master Chen planned to do something bad to Scarlett and Calix felt that it was going to be sexual. Young Master Chen was known as a lustful man who used his money to take advantage of the weak. He even raped a teacher on the campus but the school authority turned a blind eye because Young Master Chen bribed them. The poor teacher was still new so she was not well protected. 

Calix won't let anything happen to Scarlett. Gusts of wind brushed against his face as he accelerated towards the place. It was good that Calix had crazy stamina and he could run continuously without taking a break. 

The battle suit may help the body to become optimized but it has limitations too. If the user has a weak body from the beginning, then the battle suit could only increase his strength equivalent to what his body could reach. In short, if you're strong, the battle suit would make you stronger. The battle suit didn't have an exact percentage performance since it all depends on the user. 

"I will make him pay."

His green-brown eyes glowed deadly, he would do everything just for Scarlett. 

It was kind of romantic that the couple had the same reactions. Calix and Scarlett didn't hesitate and rushed towards the place just to save each other. However, what they didn't know is that no one is going to be rescued since both of them are safe. Their fate right now is moving in one path so that they could achieve LUCK. Although it is mostly on Scarlett's side only. She would grow tremendously because of having segs with Calix…
