Ancient Tears BloodLine

Saw Scale Viper Academy:

Soon the news about the Rain Water Faction\'s Challenge began to spread like wildfire. The name Eurice Frye was popular. The name attracted the attention of other elemental factions as well.

Already the Flame Faction & the Metal Faction genius are defeated at the hands of Zack Lockwood. So this time everyone is looking forward to it. 

Dean Office,

Rebecca received the message from the Rain Water Faction Head. After knowing that another student is going to challenge Zack. She felt a headache coming. 

She knows Zack\'s circumstances. He doesn\'t have lightning essence in his body. Even if the duel happens, it would be like a handicap match.

But if Zack decides to fight using his body strength then the outcome is uncertain. She also knows about Eurice Frye. 

She is a talented water elemental warrior and her techniques are exquisite like her Faction Head.

So the duel will be worthwhile to watch. Thinking about Zack, her eyes flickered with complex glints. Normally, she used to directly contact him for any matter. 

But after Carlos Kent\'s issue, there was a gap. Zack is starting to have trust issues. She can\'t initiate a conversation like before. 

Sigh~

She let out a deep sigh. Then she accepted the duel request and allowed it to happen. The coming weekend the duel arena will be filled with students.

Special Faction Head Cabin,

When the news reached Carlos Kent. His expression turned ugly. For a moment, he doesn\'t know whether it\'s a coincidence or not. He knows that Zack and his friends are suspecting him.

Maybe they even try to avoid the mission. But it was unlikely to happen. It\'s like breaking the rules of the academy. Unless there is a strong reason, they can\'t disobey his instructions.

That\'s why he thought it was their scheme for a second. 

Shaking his head, he muttered, "It may not be their scheme." Because he knows that RainWater Faction Warrior ended her retreat recently.

So it may not be their plan. He also knows that the Rain Water Faction Member took the initiative to request the challenge.

Thinking about the challenge date. His eyes flickered with killing intent. He gave them 7 days of reporting time. 

But the duel will be taking place on the 7th day. Which means Zack can\'t go for the mission outside. And he has to wait for next week.

A blue vein begins to pop up on his forehead. "How unfortunate?" He said to himself. His heart tells him to strangle him right now.

But he knows the supreme elder might be watching everything. His odd behavior already made them wary. He doesn\'t want to make any mistakes. 

It\'s just that he arrogantly spoke to the Giant Tower Headmaster the other day. If he knows the current situation, then he would make fun of him.

Then he loosened his fists. Now he has no other choice other than to wait for the weekend to finish.

Or he can pull up some tricks for Zack\'s duel. If Zack dies in the duel, it would be better. But the women behind the RainWater Faction are righteous. She won\'t allow any trickery to happen.

What about that girl? Carlos Kent tapped his fingers on the table. It\'s not easy. There are still a few days left for the duel. He decided to collect the information first. 

If that girl Eurice is narrow-minded, then she will be helpful for his plan.

RainWater Faction Head Cabin,

A beautiful woman in a white dress is sitting behind her desk. She looked at the blue-haired girl in front of her. The blue-haired girl is none other than Eurice Frye.

Eurice Frye has long silky blue hair and a pair of blue eyes. She was dressed in the academy uniform. Her skin tone was fair. She stood 5.8ft tall in height. 

She met the gaze of the Faction Head without worrying.

Feeling the Peak Elite Stage Pressure in her body. The Rain Water Faction Head smiled like a chrysanthemum.

"Eurice, you did well."

"Looks like your isolation practice went well," She commented.

"Elder Alice, thanks for your support," Eurice replied. 

The name of the RainWater Faction Head is Alice Brown. Her students call her Elder Alice.

After hearing from her students, she waved her hand. But the next second, her expression turned serious.

"The dean permitted the challenge duel," Alice said.

Hearing that Eurice\'s expression lit up with joy. She was worried that the dean wouldn\'t give permission easily. But now the worry in her heart disappeared.

Alice saw through her thoughts. She shook her head in response. 

"Eurice, are you confident?" Alice asked. It\'s not like she underestimates her student faction. But a few days ago, she heard the shocking news. Which was known only to bigwigs.

The bedrock city\'s incident shocked her heart. She knew Zack Lockwood was the target of hostile forces. 

But his performance against the rogue warriors overturned her view. "That kid killed Super Elite Warriors without using any technique," She said in her heart.

At first, she thought it was absurd. But the news was confirmed by another faction head as well. So there is no doubt that Zack can fight across ranks.

She doesn\'t know whether Alice can withstand his attacks.

At the same time, Alice\'s expression turned dark. She didn\'t expect to hear this question from the elder. She was confident that\'s why she issued a challenge.

Then looking at the elder she said, "Elder, I made this decision after learning about him. I believe my technique can restrain him."

Hearing her confident tone, Alice sighed inside. She doesn\'t want to bring the topic of bedrock city to her. Because it would hit her confidence.

Maybe this duel can become a learning experience for her. 

"Okay, I believe you. Go and prepare well for the duel. And don\'t underestimate your opponent," Alice said with a smile.

Eurice regained her confidence. Then she left the room.

Alice Brown knitted her eyebrows. She is not feeling good about this. Both the Flame and Metal Faction have failed to defeat that kid.

Now they are going to join this line. A bitter smile appeared on her face. She hopes that Eurice will learn something. 

...

From MC\'s Perspective:

The following day,

Noon:

After coming from the gravity chamber, I entered the bath to clean myself. I changed into a fresh set of clothes a few minutes later.

Then I sat on the sofa and started to access the social media site. Right after, several messages popped up. 

Not surprisingly, many of the online posts are about the duel. Seeing that my mouth curved into an arc. People have already started discussing it.

Then after scrolling down a few pages. I decided to focus on something else. 

Beep~

But before I could do that my sci-fi watch lit up with notification. When I saw the contact name. I stood up from the sofa.

"Jonathan!" I uttered in joy.

Then I opened the message to read it. As expected it was an encrypted message. I started to decipher it. 

When I read the message. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. 

"Jonathan is in Viper City?" 

"What is he doing here?" I mumbled under my breath.

Then after calming down my heart, I began to get ready. After changing back to the academy uniform, I hurriedly left the dorm building.

On the way to the monster facility, I came across other faction warriors. Apart from scrutinizing, none of them hinder me. 

Ignoring everyone, I hurried to the monster transit facility. When I entered the facility, I registered for a monster carriage. 

Shortly after, I sat down on the back of a giant falcon. The Giant Falcon is a Class-3 Monster. But its speed is exceptional. It quickly crossed several miles in a few minutes.

One hour later,

The Giant Falcon enters the air space of Viper City. Then the monster immediately slowed down its speed. 

When the falcon lands on the platform. I stepped out and exited the facility. Jonathan seems to be staying in the inn. 

But a trace of doubt flashes in my eyes. 

As far as I know, he doesn\'t like to expose himself. Then shaking my head, I head straight towards the inn.

Shortly after, I arrived in front of the Black Pine Inn. The inn looks normal with fewer customers. Then I walked to the counter and booked the room.

After getting the code, I walked upstairs. When I found the room. I entered the access code.

Creak~

The door opened.

After entering inside, I sent a message to Jonathan. I thought he was waiting for me in this inn. 

Swoosh~

Before I could think further. A figure appeared in front of me. The person is none other than Jonathan.

Seeing him in my presence, I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulder. 

"You are back?" I uttered.

Jonathan nodded before saying, "Young master, are you alright?"

Sigh~

I let out a huge sigh before sitting down on the bed. 

"The Special Faction Head is targeting me," I replied.

Hearing that Jonathan didn\'t reply instead he sat on the chair.
