Capítulo 30: Remember My name

Chapter 30

Immediately they left the class, they made their way to the training grounds for their combat training. After the usual physical training and sparring with each other, they continued practicing the axe kick and thankfully, Jake got the kick right. He was so excited. Looking around, he saw that majority of the students managed to get the kick right.

Seeing that most of the students got the skill right, Lee was happy and he was even smiling which was a rarety to see.

"Okay." Lee said clapping his hands to get the students attention. "I'm glad to know that majority of you managed to get the skill right. So I want to announce, after tomorrow's physical training, you will all spar with each other officially by only using the skills I have thought you so you can know how it feels when you use it in battle."

"Class is dismissed for today, I want you guys to prepare for your duels tomorrow. After that, we will move onto the next type of kick the day after." Lee said dismissing the class.

After Lee dissmed the class, Jake, Sophia and Jack decided to head off for their weapons class. But this time, Cindy tagged along. On the way there, Cindy noticed how boring the group were, no discussion or anything. This Caused Cindy to be bored out of her mind.

"Oh for heavens sake!" Cindy said.

"What? What happened?" Jack asked.

"You guys are so boring and quiet and it is really boring and making our walk seem longer." Cindy said.

"Trust me, you don't want to hear us talking. It can turn pretty argumentative." Jack said.

"I will appreciate it. Anything but this quietness. It is truly annoying." Cindy said.

"Don't worry. You gonna get used to it soon." Jack said.

After thirty minutes more of walking, they finally get to the swords hall. As usual, Von was sitting in front of the class with his legs crossed and in a meditative position. Jake and the rest took their positions in front of the class awaiting the start of the class.

After thirty minutes of waiting, the class was now filled up with eager students. When the class was filled, Von stood up and beginned the class.

"You can all go ahead and pick up your swords from the wall." Von said. To which all the students rush at once to pick the sword they used the previous day. After the students were done picking their swords, they went back to their positions awaiting further instructions from Von.

"You can now pick your dummy and start practicing The Primary Guard." Von said.

And the students picked their dummies, started practicing away for an hour straight no rest. After practicing for two hours now, Von dismissed the class. After leaving the sword class, Jake decided to head off to the VR room since there was still time before curfew. Curfew was at 10pm and the time was currently 7pm so Jake decided to head to the VR room to play a few matches. And he decided to inform his friends.

"You really wanna go to the VR room by this time? Isn't it too late?" Sophia asked.

"Don't worry, I will be back before curfew." Jake said.

"Alright then, just don't be late and keep off from trouble." Sophia said.

"Don't worry, I will be fine." Jake reassured.

"Awwn, so sweet. You guys are so sweet." Cindy couldn't help but comment while Jake headed off.

After splitting up from Jack and the rest, Jake finally got to the VR gaming room. He payed for 2 hours which cost 60 credits and then he hopped into the pod ready to play. Jake decided to split his time Into two as usual. The first hour was for playing against werewolves while the remaining last hour was to play against humans.

With that settled, Jake quickly selected the play against werewolves option and started his game. Unknown to Jake, immediately he logged in, three humans who were spectating his match the previous time, were notified because they were interested in Jake.

When Jake started his match, the humans were already in the stands spectating his match.

"Do you think he can win against the werewolf?" One of the spectators asked the other.

"I'm not sure, I have only seen him fight against humans earlier." The second person replied.

"Well that means you people haven't done your research properly. Because I have searched up his previous matches and I saw him battle against werewolves. Although he struggled a bit so I don't know if he has improved or not." The third person replied.

Jake battled against the werewolf so skillfully, he used all the skills he learnt during the week. Although he struggled at times, he managed to pull a win. Meanwhile the second fight he had with another werewolf, it ended in a bitter defeat when he wanted to use a skill but he got the timing wrong thereby resulting in his loss.

After an hour of battling werewolves, Jake decided to get a little bit of rest before challenging humans. Although he wasn't battling with his physical body, he was quite mentally drained.

When Jake was about to rest, that was when he noticed the humans in the spectating stands.

"Huh? What are they doing here? And who are they?" Jake thought.

"Maybe they are your fans or something." Zee said chuckling meanwhile Jake just shrugged and decided to go for his next match. Selecting his match, Jake was matched up with a bronze player at first.

The match was a quick one between Jake and his opponent. Ending in his victory. Meanwhile Jake was quite disappointed. But he decided to suck it up and played another match but he was just matched up with bronze players all through the time.

"Damn! I came here to probably learn something new or find someone worthy enough to push me to my limit but I'm here matched up with newbies." Jake complained. "At this rate, my time will be up and I haven't learnt or seen anyone worthy to push me to my limits. If only I could be matched up with that fisherman dude."

As if the universe heard Jake, his next and last match of the day was between him and the fisherman player.

"Finally a competition." Jake said excitedly.

"Woah! Wolf hunter is being matched with Shark fighter." One of the spectators said.

"Huh?" One of the earlier spectator thought and then he turned around to see 5 more players and he recognized each and every one of them because they were the Bronze players who Jake battled against.

"Probably they also became fans of Wolf hunter after their matches."

The match between Jake and Shark fighter was already starting. When the timer hit 0, Jake didn't rush in, he waited and decided to watch his opponents next move.

"Wise decision." Zee said.

"I won't lose to you again." Jake said to the Shark fighter.

"Huh? Lose to me? Do I even know you?" The Shark fighter said.

"Are you kidding me? You don't remember me?" Jake asked.

"No I don't. And if I don't remember you, it means that you are too weak to be remembered and I only remember the strong." Shark fighter said smiling.

To which Jake just smiled and looked at him. "Then I just have to show you how strong I am."

Jake wasted no time in dashing towards the shark fighter with full speed he threw a punch with his free hand that wasn't holding onto his sword. The shark fighter ducked therefore avoiding the blow then he punched Jake in his stomach so hard that Jake stumbled back and held his stomach for he was feeling the pain.

But his high Endurance was helping him currently, so he got over the pain quickly then Jake ran forward again and slashed his opponent with his sword but his opponent blocked the strike with his fish pole and then gave Jake a kick in his stomach therefore pushing Jake back a bit.

"Is it just me or is the wolf hunter losing?" Someone in the stands asked.

"I think he is." Someone else said.

"He battled against werewolves, winning his fight again and again and now he can't even beat a silver ranked player." Someone else said.

"Aren't they supposed to be in the same rank?" Someone else asked.

"I think you don't know who the shark fighter is." Someone replied.

"Who is he? I just know he's a silver ranked player that is winning the fight with the wolf hunter." The person said.

Then the spectator laughed. "Then that means you don't know who he is."

"The Shark fighter is currently the strongest silver player. But he is still weak because no matter what he does, he can't move onto the next rank."

"That means Wolf hunter doesn't stand a chance." Someone said.

"Apparently he doesn't, didn't you hear him say he lost to Shark fighter before."

"And you missed something he also said which was he fought with him when the wolf hunter was a bronze player." One of the earlier and original spectator commented.

"Any how it is, let's just watch what's going to happen." Someone else said.

Meanwhile back at the match, after being pushed back, Jake didn't give up. He dashed at the shark fighter then he used the new sword skill he had been practicing at the academy 'The Primary Guard'. And the attack landed perfectly therefore slashing the shark fighter on his shoulder causing a deep wound and then Jake used 'The Triple Threat' technique to get behind his opponent quickly and struck him at his back causing another large and open wound on the shark fighter's back.

Not letting up, Jake moved back to create distance again and he activated two of his skills at once while using 'The Triple Threat' technique again to move forward. Jake activated<Melee combat; that deals 10 percent damages with any basic weapon.> And then he quickly activated <Frenzy skill> attacking the Shark fighter rapidly for two seconds.

The shark fighter couldn't even defend, he was just being attacked in several places for two seconds and then finally, the two seconds was up and Jake moved back again to observe his opponent.

The shark fighter was now a bloody mess with injuries riddled on his body from head to toe. He couldn't stand properly, his feet were wobbly. Satisfied with this, Jake smiled. "Now remember my name." Jake said dashing forward with full speed and then he slashed the shark fighter's neck. "Wolf hunter"

And then the gaming system congratulated Jake on his victory and also announced his moving on to the next rank in the game, (Gold) satisfied with this, Jake logged off.
