Dragon

Eun-woo was at the rooftop of the dormitory creating dark spheres around him, as he had created a ice barrier earlier none could see what he was doing inside.

"I see so this is how I should layer another energy on top of another"

Eun-woo had read the Ice King's diary in front of him which contained theories and principles of F- to EX rank level spells, he had been reading this diary aside from Luxuria's for the past month ever since he had raided his tomb which would explain his instantaneous casting and efficiency.

"Divine Aura can merge later now I just have to layer basic energy matters"

Murasame had appeared in front of him and floated, it had turned into a normal looking Katana as Eun-woo had willed it, it's original appearance was Dark Red but it was now just looking like a normal one.

[ Fuse! ]

Lightning and Ice energy fused into Murasame, the sword accepted the energy it then changed into another appearance it then turned into a Golden Sword and it's handle now had a white flower pattern.

"I guess you do live up to your status, I wonder what secrets do you hold"

Eun-woo then grabbed the sword and cancelled his ice barrier, he then created a practice dummy made out of ice meters away from him.

Eun-woo then gathered mana and fused it with Murasame as he didn't know what would happen but all he knew that the two energies had fused which somehow gave Murasame a new appearance.

He then casually swung out towards the practice dummy, even though it was made out of ice too he saw it was then encapsulated but he also saw streaks of lightning trying to strike the ice.

"Isn't this just two spells with extra steps?"

He didn't know since it was made out of ice so he could have been wrong, he then opened his ring and pulled out a wooden dummy this time, he placed it in front of him.

He Slashed it and half, as soon as he did he saw before Murasame made contact with the dummy lightning traveled around the wooden dummy and soon as it cut through it froze the thing in between and encapsulated both halves in ice.

"A live subject would be best but that's going to have to wait until next week"

As soon as Eun-woo removed the two energies from Murasame, Murasame had returned to normal steel but it soon also sensed that Eun-woo was done testing and had returned to it's Dark Red palette and malevolent energy.

"I think I like you better when I think you're in your normal mode"

Murasame then returned back to it's normal looking appearance as it looked dull and gray, Eun-woo nodded and returned it to it's sheathe and placed it into his ring.

Shortly a figure approached him

"Have you done what I've told you?"

"Ye-yes! Here are the files that have been submitted to you and I've filtered the combat positions and only saved the unique ones instead and I selected some people who looked unique enough to warrant your attention"

The figure who approached was Ivan, it was not until Hand of Sancus had finished cooling down he had decided to use it on Ivan, both made a deal that Ivan would no longer suffer curses but instead work wholeheartedly for Eun-woo, Ivan also knew as long as he was cursed it would only be a hindrance and that if even he double crossed Eun-woo his family would be implicated.

"You can leave now, continue filtering and keep an eye out on some of the people I've listed down over the weekend"

"Ye-yes Young Master!"

"Stop it with the Young Master, Eun-woo is just fine, besides if you do well for me in the future perhaps inheriting your guild won't be a pipe dream anymore but I gotta say you're sights are too low but I won't judge"

"Yes!"

Ivan happily strutted away as the thought was beginning forming in his head perhaps he should have just approached Eun-woo instead.

Eun-woo stayed a while then looked up at the moon as it lit the night.

"I'm coming for you soon"

-

It was early morning and there were no classes scheduled as there was an emergency meeting so all professors were called to join in on the meeting.

"Eun-woo!"

Eun-woo turned around to see Ling Shu waving at him as he had finished his exercise at the rooftop.

"Did something happen?"

"No, but when will you give me an artifact?"

"Maybe when you move out of the room I'll give you one by then"

"I'll pass then, but I have a favor"

"What is it?"

Ling Shu smiled and whispered her favor into Eun-woo's ear

"I'll consider it but even then I won't hold back"

"It's fine if they think you can be beaten, I think I hurt Zhao Yi's pride too much and I'm worried that he'll do something stupid"

"Isn't he one of those that have hero complexes?"

"Well, he does have a hero complex but I think's he also has something else"

"So you want me to be the beatable goal?"

"He can't aim for Lee Jun-ho since they're going to be teammates but you on the other hand"

"I don't get anything out of this, but all right"

Eun-woo nodded and summon his spear as he followed Ling Shu

-

"Damn it!"

Zhao Yi was practicing his spear arts as he couldn't forget how he couldn't even stop Yu-na or even block Eun-woo spear.

"You're over doing things again Zhao Yi"

Fan Mei told him as she had been watching him practice ever since he got beaten seemingly copying Lee Jun-ho.

"It's annoying to know I can't even stop a girl or block a stick!"

"That girl you spoke of, if I'm not wrong was a Valkyrie, and that Stick wasn't an ordinary stick I've been hearing it was an EX rank spear or at the least a Legendary one even so"

"Just you wait! I'll beat them up they don't even know the meaning of hard work all they got-"

Before Zhao Yi could finish a spear landed in front of him as he dodged to the side.

"I stand corrected you don't have a hero complex but a superiority complex, I guess being a sore loser is all you'll ever amount to be"

Fan Mei didn't say anything as Zhao Yi looked at Eun-woo with eyes full of rage, Eun-woo then landed in front of him as he jumped from the stands, bystanders immediately looked at them with interest as Zhao Yi chose to practice in an open field.

Eun-woo grabbed his spear as soon as he did it was blazing with flames coming out from its tip.

"Fire isn't even my best element yet you got blown away, I guess it's a bit overkill to use this"

Eun-woo then unsummoned the spear and brought out a normal one, the academy issued spear.

"This feels better, I guess with this you won't have any trouble keeping up and finally knowing that you're just a piece of trash who thinks he's supposed to be above everyone once you've trained enough."

Zhao Yi turned red as he felt he was being embarrassed, an opponent switching to a weaker weapon and lowering his skill cap to deal with someone was an embarrassing thing to do if someone was on the other end

Eun-woo then tapped the ground with the pole of his spear as lightning immediately surrounded him.

Zhao Yi also got into his stance and readied himself, he lunged at Eun-woo as he aimed his spear towards Eun-woo's heart, the spear got near but when it was about to come in contact everyone heard a loud boom as Zhao Yi was knocked forward as Eun-woo appeared behind him and hit his spine again with the pole.

"Imbecile"

Eun-woo immediately

'What if I use my arm as a conductor?'

[ Dragon's Strike! ]

Before he could complete his train of thought Zhao Yi leaped and slammed his spear as Eun-woo dodged leaving a crater on the ground.

"Why are you dodging me! Fight me head on!"

"I'm not an idiot"

[ Flash Step ]

Everyone soon heard loud consecutive booms as Zhao Yi looked like another rag doll as he was being barraged by Eun-woo's strikes, to anyone they could see his uniform was ripped every time a boom could be heard shortly they could see his bare body full of bruises as Eun-woo didn't stop.

Eun-woo stopped after he saw Zhao Yi's arms were trembling from being forced to defend, he then slammed the spear to the ground and pinning it down and created a chair out of ice and sat there as he looked at Zhao Yi.

"Come at me then"

Zhao Yi roared as a silhouette of dragon appeared behind his back as his body started regenerating and he excluded a red aura, every one saw he looked like he was transforming as his physical body would change any moment

"All right show's over"

Eun-woo snapped his fingers freezing and encapsulating Zhao Yi in ice, he then stood up and went near Zhao Yi, he looked at his eyes, Zhao Yi's eyes were moving indicating he was aware of what was happening he wanted to break through the ice but every time he would get zapped inside.

"So this is what happens on a live target"

Eun-woo looked at the trail of Ice as he had enchanted his spear and directed the ice path towards Zhao Yi and combined it with he lightning energy.

Zhao Yi couldn't say anything other than moving his eyes.

"Blink your eyes if you get Zapped"

Eun-woo looked but he soon saw that Zhao Yi was flinching every second.

"You thought that I would let you transform? Sorry but you have to cool your head and know your place you're not that protagonist in this school"

Eun-woo then punched the ice making sure only Zhao Yi's head could hear what he wanted to say next.

"I am"

Zhao Yi roared as he wanted to push his limits now and be pummel Eun-woo but he soon snapped his fingers again trapping him inside.

Eun-woo then grabbed his spear and left Zhao Yi.

-

Ling Shu greeted Eun-woo as she had waited on the other side

"Was that enough?"

"It was more than enough I think, I guess you overkilled it but I can't complain, I think he needed to learn his place."

"Are you? I think I overdid it"

"It's fine Eun-woo"

"All right Ling Shu if you say so"

"I just hope he learns and on the bright side I think he finally awakened is dragon lineage"

"What about your lineage?"

"I won't ask how you know but I honestly don't know how, till then only time will tell"

"Then just do what you continue what you've doing, and also I want dumplings today consider it as your payment"

"Sure! I think I'll immediately cook one up, I wonder if Sowon is still awake"

Both of them quickly left the arena.

-

"Are you okay?"

Fan Mei asked Zhao Yi who looked distraught as he had just gotten freed.

"Ask me tomorrow, I want to sleep"

"Okay, take care Zhao Yi"

Fan Mei sighed and left him alone as Zhao Yi was contemplating on today's loss as well as the last team battle, Fan Mei shook her head and closed the door wondering what to do next.
