Outside the gate...

Confusion etched on everyone's faces.

"Is he going to do something crazy again?" Frederick scratched his head in confusion.

After the spar with Lucas, he had a rough guess about Lucas' strength. And the truth was, he was starting to feel a bit afraid of this guy knowing the crazy things he could do.

Just recently, he almost wiped out half of the Professors of Horizon. Though the work was done by others, Lucas was the one who pulled all the strings until the end.

This proves that this guy had already made a vast connection aside from his and Charles's house.

In this brief confrontation, the only one who had gained many things was none other than Lucas.

Meanwhile, Ami and Herman stared at Lucas' daunting gaze.

"Why isn't he pulling out his sword?" Herman spoke with a frown wondering if this guy had been frozen by bloodlust.

Contrary to everyone's thoughts, Lucas stared at the huge figure unchained before him. It had a huge statue standing on its hind limb. A dark visage, huge bulky hands and claws. There was a goat-shaped skull stuck over his forehead from which four huge horns extended.

Most of the Demonkin in a way are considered evolved monsters due to the intake of miasma and can stand on hind limbs but in no way they are slower compared to the monster.

Seeing the size of the Demonkin, Lucas calmed himself as a gust of powerful wave assaulted him.

The area around him started turning red, as the Demonkin gawked at him hungrily.

'I hope this works.' Lucas muttered.

He wasn't trying to show off, rather he needed to do a test and though it was safe to do this with Demonkin chained, as taught by Harris, a person should experience a certain feeling of death and fear because only then can you bring out your full potential.

'Damn, I don't want to do this.' Lucas sighed as he asked Harris for help but that man told him to do it.

The Demonkin chains suddenly unhinged and it charged towards Lucas with a loud piercing shriek.

A huge pressure descended on him and the blood lust from demo kin assaulted Lucas like a wave but he stood unfazed.

Lucas felt that his own killing intent had surpassed this beast's one.

Leaping over the ground, it extended its claws at Lucas, aiming straight at his vital spot. But just as it drew near, Lucas' eyes glowed fiercely with a golden hue.

Many closed their eyes in fear of any mishap but what happened next, shocked them out of their wits as the gnarly claws just stopped an inch away from Lucas with the Demonkin face appearing right before Lucas' face.

The Demonkin's arm that extended to seize Lucas suddenly felt trapped by an invisible layer of chains restraining his movements.

Realizing that it was trapped, it opened its jaw revealing sharp teeth.

Veins started appearing all over his body and his muscles bulged outward.

"GRRRRRRR!"

"What is that?" Herman asked with curiosity.

"Is it a restraining spell? When did he get that?"

Everyone who watched the scene felt perplexed, yet their eyes were glued onto Lucas who inched closer towards the Demonkin.

Lucas raised his right arm and pointed downward.

"Kneel!"

A cold dominating and ruthless voice echoed following a surplus of the amount of mana flaring up in the surroundings.

BOOM!

The ground beneath the monster's feet was pulverized and its huge body crashed onto the ground unable to move an inch.

The Demonkin started to scream in despair as it felt his whole body chained by an invisible force and then, a huge weight slammed his body trying to crush him internally.

Seeing the demokin slowly getting up, Lucas raised his feet and slammed it on the Demonkin's head.

The goat skull over its face shattered exposing its hideous face. Its teeth were exposed without lips covering them and there were no eyelids.

Its appearance was enough to cause nightmares in many but in Lucas' eyes, it was just a leech that was supposed to die.

"No wonder you wear that mask to hide the ugliness inside."

Lucas summoned his sword but at that moment, due to his lack of mastery over telekinesis, his grip over the monster loosened a bit.

The Demonkin uses the chance to topple Lucas and run. However just as Lucas was thrown back into the air, he unsheathed his sword.

A red line drew across the horizon drawing a beautiful reddish line with a golden tint following which a monster head flew up in the air.

[You have killed an early 4-Star. You have gained 50000 experience.]

Satisfied with the prompt, Lucas walked out from the vortex and stared at everyone's bewildered expression.

His casual expression looked as if he had gone for a stroll in the park and come back after killing a bug.

All of their brains screamed trying to understand what the hell they saw now.

Was this guy really that strong?

Didn't that mean he was hiding his strength and if he had gotten serious, he would have beaten them to shit in the tournament?

As they thought about this, many of them felt relieved that it was good that the tournament was stopped in the middle otherwise it would have been too humiliating to get beaten by a 3-Star commoner before the whole world.

Seeing their weird look, Lucas tried to explain,"It was a restraining skill that I got recently."

"Yeah, we believe that.'' Both Frederick and Charles spoke aloud but their expression was saying something else.

"Frederick your turn and Charles come with me to the vault. Rose had selected her thing."

"See you." Charles nodded and left after the greeting while Frederick went to select the monster.

Meanwhile, Lucas who was now left alone saw Rose walking out holding a greenish bow.

Lucas knew what it was.

A bow made from the branch of World Tree with a tremendous shooting power that adjusts itself to the user's growth.

You can either use your arrows or create arrows of pure mana imbued with your attributes using this. Even if Lucas wasn't an archer he somehow felt jealous of that weapon cause so many attributes lying dormant in his arsenal would make great use of this bow.

Alas, he finds shooting with a gun more fun.

As Lucas was lost in his thoughts, Rose came to his side and asked.

"Is your fight with Frederick settled?"

Lucas' whole body shivered and for a moment he looked around wondering if Rose was talking to someone else as he had rarely talked with Rose and the truth was, he found Rose's personality somewhat distant.

It was just that she was too monotonous and stoic without much fun.

"I am talking to you." Rose said, seeing Lucas looking around.

Cough!Cough!

"Yeah, it settled. We don't have any deadly enmity, just minor clashes of opinions."

"I see."

An awkward silence prevailed for a moment making Lucas uncomfortable so he decided to go and talk with Jeanette who was looking at him.

But just as he took a step, Rose spoke again.

"Frederick may be a bit unfriendly and had a habit of keeping things to himself. You may find him seriously frustrating when he does things on his own."

"And why are you telling me this?" Lucas asked wearily.

Rose stared at Lucas' face with a softened expression.

"That's because you are the only one whom he feels comfortable with. Truth is, I am jealous of you. Despite my repeated approach he still tried to do things by himself thinking that he had to rely on his own and had to bear the burden. And I don't know what it is but after your confrontation, I can see him change." Rose closed her while remembering Frederick who seemed quite relaxed now.

"He is much more relaxed and worry-free now. So, please take care of him. He trusts you."

Lucas stood rooted in his place reminiscing about Frederick's character.

He reminds Lucas of people who have so many grievances but they can't share it with their loved ones in case they would be worried. So suppressing the pain, all they can do is wear a mask of happiness.

"He might trust me but he believes in you, Rose. You mean more to him than anything else. And the reason why he doesn't share his burdens is that he didn't want you to be suppressed by those weights and worries. I know it's wrong but we need to look by standing in his shoes. Just do your best, he will surely open up to you one day."

Rose's eyes widened and her expression brightened up.

"Lucas, you are next."

Their conversation was interrupted by Ami's call.

lightsnοvεl "Sorry, I have to go now. As for this matter, just believe in yourself and your love. And you too try to relax and have some fun. Don't keep that stoic boring face all the time. Your face will be filled with wrinkles if you keep worrying all the time."

Lucas then ran away leaving those words.

"Relax and have some fun, huh!"

Rose smiled thanking Lucas for the advice.

Meanwhile, Frederick, who dealt with the Demonkin easily after a brief spar, on walking out, was suddenly struck by thunder seeing Rose's sweet smiling face.

'Oh my God! What happened to my Rose?'

'Why is she smiling like a normal girl? Is she sick?'

'My poor Rose!'
