Chapter 119 5 Elemental Gem- A Super Relic?
(From MC Perspective)
Little Star Gate High School – Red City,
Huh, everyone is cursing at fatty. He is taking too much time to defeat Lex Root. If he had used his fart magic the duel would have come to an end sooner. Shaking my head, I observed Lex Root's complexion. After probing his status using my system, I find out this guy's mana comes to a drastic low point.
It will be a matter of seconds before he gets smashed by fatty. I reveal a small smile on my face realizing one important thing. Earlier, I thought that the silver runic screen would hinder the system's probe function. But it turns out not, the system didn't even face any problem.
Day by day, I'm beginning to understand the potential of the system. With the status panel alone, I can do many things. Apart from knowing the enemy, I can use it for real time monitoring during the battle, where the mana capacity of the wizards plays a crucial role.
Hmmm, I was in a fixed mind apart from the miracle function of raising up the talent. The system has no other use. But now I realized that by knowing your opponent's details you can do a lot of things. For example you can scheme many things from the background. It will definitely help me, if I can plan things correctly.
After gaining some clarity, I observed the duel.
Combat platform,
Lex Root's mana completely drained, due to the fact that he wasn't able to cast wind spells anymore. Using this opportunity, Lucas Brad Punched him straight his chest.
"Thud"
When Lucas Brad's punch hit him hard, Lex Root flew backwards like a broken kite and crashed on the ground directly. Lex Root feels agonizing pain all over his body, he wasn't even able to think straight.
"Phew" Fatty Lucas sighed in relief.
It took more than two hours to defeat him. But Fatty feels it's worth the effort he puts into defeating him. Otherwise, he would have been cornered to use his fart power.
Feeling people's gaze, "He…He…He…Sorry to disappoint you all, you will never see my magic." Fatty Lucas laughed in his heart.
Seeing the match come to a surprising end, the combat teacher declared Lucas Brad as winner of this duel.
Combat Teacher Freeman deactivated the silver runic screen using his mental method. When the screen came down, fatty Lucas walked out of the platform. He walked towards his friend Vincent Carey.
Mr. Freeman sees Lucas with a different light in his eyes, he then gestures to healer wizards to take care of Lex Root.
Seeing Fatty Lucas coming towards me, I welcomed him with a warm smile, "Lucas you gave everyone a huge shock."
"He…He…He…, Brother you know my strength." Lucas replied with a knowing smile.
To his reply, I nodded and patted his shoulder in appreciation and commented, "Well, I guess no one in your family is going to stop you from consuming mana meat."
Lucas Brad's expression became solemn hearing Vincent's answer. He came closer to him and replied, "Brother, you guessed it right." Then he asked, "Brother Vincent, What do you think? Will I have any changes in my physique in future?"
Shaking my head, I answered, "How am I supposed to know? You can only wait and watch. But I personally feel there is not going to be any negative changes."
Lucas Brad sighed in relief, as long as there are no negative changes he can live with peace.
…
While both of us were talking, the other side of the discussion was going very hard. The Combat Teacher asked others to come up for the challenge. But everyone is hesitating due to time constraints. There is only half an hour left before the combat class is over. So no one is interested in fighting a half an hour battle.
Combat Teacher Freeman raised his eyebrow in tension, he understood that there is not much time left. But still he doesn't want his students to waste half an hour in the combat class. In his opinion, every wizard should utilize each and every minute in training.
While everyone is hesitating, around the corner one wizard is in a worry that someone will call up his name. Rank 5 in class, Level-1 Soil Wizard Jake House. Jake House is 5th position when it comes to top mage in class. Apart from Brent Dale, Danny Quinn, Victoria Shields and Frank Lambert there is no one in the class as his opponents.
Only flaw that he has in his character is that he is timid in nature. Jake House doesn't offend anyone, he is not very talkative at the same time he is very talented. His soil magic is very strong, Jake can easily defeat other normal earth elemental wizards.
Because of his talent he easily rose up in ranks by defeating others and achieved 5th position. Yet he is not satisfied with his ranks and he wants to go further. That can only happen after defeating rank 4th, Frank Lambert which is not easy.
In order to defeat Frank Lambert, Jake House prepared very well. Jake already has something in his storage bracelet which can further increase his strength. He received this unranked relic from his organization Royal Force Hall.
Royal Force Hall gave this unranked relic to Jake House in the name of investing in future high ranked wizards. Royal Force Hall is a government force. Since Jake House will become part of their power in future, they gave this relic generously. But Jake didn't think so, he doubted their generosity.
Sometime ago, he asked for help from his organization. But they gave him an unranked relic, they told him that it is very useful to soil wizards. Truth to be told, even the royal force couldn't even identify what the object is. Yet they found, when tested with elements, it has some reactions towards soil.
Coincidently, Jake's request came to them. Instead of giving him another opportunity to raise his strength. The officials simply dumped the unidentified object to Jake House. In this way the royal force hall didn't suffer any loss and they also made him owe too much to them.
Jake House is clueless about it, but somehow he feels something amiss about the relic. But he didn't dare to question his powerful organization. Since they told him it has something to do with soil, he can only test himself.
Since he hasn't used this unidentified relic, his power remains the same. Jake worries that someone will take this time to challenge him.
Seeing the timid appearance of Jake House, Frank Lambert snorted, "Another clown in the house."
At the same time, Frank sighed with relief in his heart that Jake won't challenge him. Even though Jake looked timid and low, Frank understands that Jake's soil magic is no joke at all. If not for his timid nature, there is a possibility that he could have achieved top 2 ranks in this class.
After that Frank didn't trouble Jake, since there was no threat to his rank he minded his own business.
The other hand, Jake House stood quite close to Frank Lambert. Feeling that guy is troubling him, Jake walked away from the spot and walked towards the opposite where top 20 wizards were standing.

(From MC Perspective)
While Fatty was talking to me, someone walked past us. At the same time, "Ding!" sounded in mind.
"Ding! Host, 5 elemental gem a super relic is detected nearby"
"Ding! Host can use this super relic to improve the talent by one whole grade"
A series of messages flood my mind. By hearing the system's message I feel like lightning struck my body. "Super relic, what is the concept?" I grunted.
Dad told me it is impossible to improve one's talent in this world. He even told me other than common relics & special relics he hasn't heard of any other miracle things. But at that time, I simply agreed with him.
I didn't even refute his words, because I don't want to argue with my father. And at the same time, I have utmost trust in the system. Because, system existence itself is a miracle one.
Right now, my belief has come true. Super relic, it is the relic high above special relics. Such relics do exist in this world. Sure, such things can't be sought after, it only depends upon chance.
Next moment, I feel complete ecstasy. System gave me another miracle opportunity. After essos crystal, I thought it would take some time to come across relics. But now everything has changed.
I turned around to observe everyone intently, and the system reminded me that a super relic is nearby. "Where could it be?" I mumbled under my breath
Fatty Lucas is stupefied by Vincent's actions. He asked, "Brother, What happened?"
I replied, "Huh, it's nothing"
But my mind sprung up in action. There is only half an hour left before the class is over. I need to find the location of the relic before that. I saw everyone talking about the next challenge. Since it's impossible for top-10 wizards to duel, the combat teacher is convincing other wizards to duel.
My mind was on them for a moment before I retracted my thoughts. Then I observed people around me. Is there any new guy who came to the group beside me? I have been standing in the same spot since the beginning yet the system reminded me just now.
