Ever since Cassandra had set foot in the fallen city, she had not needed to draw these weapons that she had received from the academy for this trial. Yet, right now she had to bring them out to face this Grade 3 magical beast. Cassandra drew deep breaths of air, she was covered in injuries, but she didn’t care because they were already healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. This was how special Vampires are they have terrifying vitality so it is extremely hard to successfully kill one. Cassandra had a solemn look in her eyes as she looked at the Golden Crown "This can’t continue! The Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk is a powerful beast at the peak of Grade 3, and its a king species among Tyrant Black Hawks so if I don’t use drastic measures even I will lose and that would mean death in the real world.’ Drake called out. "I am eventually going to die, but I can’t let myself die just yet." her eyes shone with resolve and she finally activated her trump card. Unlike other elemental affinities, Vampires had no special long range attacks. The Vampire powers instead emphasized on enhancing the ability’s of the person. Strength, agility, senses, reflexes, vitality. These are the things that a Vampire relies on. They were basic things that made up the foundations of a warrior yet it was these basic foundations that made a Vampire so scary. Vampires couldn’t use long distance spells, but when it came to close up fights, they were the supreme masters when it came to close combat. Even among Mages, only very few affinities could compare to the terrifying physical power of Vampires. Thanks to their special powers the could brig forth terrifying strength, exceptional speed and agility, extraordinary vitality and It could be said that a Vampire wasn’t truly in their complete form when the Vampire form wasn’t active, and so they could not use their full power. Yet, now she had activated her Vampire form, so she was now in her most primal state. As soon as Cassandra activated this special ability, she felt her body heat up rapidly. Right now she was feeling like all the blood in her body was boiling. This sensation she was feeling made her feel like all the cells in her body had suddenly She felt as though all her senses had been heightened beyond their limits and as her magic power surged through her, she felt like her attack power seemed to had doubled. But when it attempted to go higher the light of the sun shone on her and she felt as if a set of shackles were placed on her. It was like thousands of chains had wrapped around her preventing her from unleashing any more power. Casandra raised her head and her eyes had turned blood crimson, they were like This was her special ability as a Vampire. When a vampire used their vampire form, their attack power would multiply. At this moment be, it her attack power, reaction speed, agility or the strength of her senses they had all doubled. The pressure from Cassandra’s aura caused the ground within several feet around her to crack and sink, her clothes fluttered in the wind.. She took a step forward and a crater several feet wide formed beneath her foot. The next second the ground exploded and her figure disappeared. She was moving at a speed so fast the human eye would not even be able to catch sight of Cassandra was moving at a speed twice as fast as her normal peak speed. One second she was on the ground an the next she was in the sky next to the Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk. The Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk also sensed the change in the human and felt the impending crisis. This caused it to raise its guard to max. Before it could do anything however Cassandra had already charged at it. One second she was on the ground and the next she was right in front of it. The Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk hastily raised its wings to defend against her and clanging sounds akin to metal colliding against metal sounded as Cassandra’s short daggers clashed with the Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk’s The Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk finally managed to send Cassandra flying towards a building several meters away, but as she flew away, she flipped in the air then nimbly her feet stepped on the walls of the building. Like a bullet shot from a gun, not even waiting for the laws of gravity to register she shot herself forward at the Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk again. The Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk was pissed that it was getting attacked so much, yet it could not get rid of this pesky human that was preventing it from enjoying its snack no matter how much it tried. Cassandra’s attacks did not relent, she would attack as much as she could to keep the Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk pinned in place. She would use the several meter high story buildings as footholds to launch herself back at it when she was thrown off or create footholds with her own magic power when she could. it had been a long time since Cassandra had gone all out and used her full power in a fight. Her eyes were blazing with excitement and her battle intent was burning like a raging inferno. She was truly enjoying this fight. "I’m going to kill this beast." was all she was thinking. She had completely forgotten that the Golden Crown Tyrant Black Hawk wanted to attack Sylvia. Drake and the twins had been on a killing spree since morning as they adventured through the fallen city. They had killed a lot of magic beast whether Grade 1 or Grade 2. However, they hadn’t encountered any Grade 3 beasts. Grade 3 magic beasts were Peak level beasts in the Fallen city so it was only natural that they were rare. Normally, Only one in a hundred Grade 1 magic beasts would evolve to Grade 2. And then maybe only one in a thousand Grade 2 magic beasts would evolve successfully to Grade 3. Yet, even then they had to make sure to stay out of sight of their competitors or the magic beasts that were only slightly stronger than them, or they would be If only one in a thousand Grade 2 beasts could evolve to Grade 3, then maybe only one in 10,000 would survive as Grade 3 magic beasts. That is why Grade 3 magic beasts were so rare. Grade 2 beasts were quite a bit scarce on the outer parts of the city and they needed Mage points so the trio decided to head deeper into the fallen city. Surely the deeper they went into the the city, the more frequent they ran into Grade 2 magic beasts. Before too long Grade 2 beasts became more common. Time went by fast and soon there were just a few minutes left on the clock for the survival training to end. So they were doing their best to kill as many magic Drake and the twins had just finished exterminating a hoard of Grade 2 magic beast Crazed Boars. When all of a sudden the sound of a terrifying beast cry resounded through the city. "I don’t know, but it does not sound like an ice cream truck." Peter rolled his eyes at the question. ’How the hell are we supposed to know? Do I look like a SHAZAM The cry resounded again, this time they were able to identify it clearly. It was the cry of a bird type beast and it carried a certain prestige that weighed down on ones mind like an invisible mountain. They recognized that pressure very clearly, it was the oppressive pressure similar to the one they had felt when they were up against the Wind wolf Alpha. That was the pressure of a Grade 3 magic beast. "That sound, it’s a Flying type magic beast!" Peter said with a solemn look. "Nothing gets past you, huh!" Paul snorted, he was still feeling bad after that earlier remark and wanted to get back at him. So he threw a jab at his brother This made Peter frown. "Paul, if you don’t have anything to say then be quiet. Nobody will think you are dumb if you don’t say anything." "That’s enough you two." Drake chose this time to interject, "I really don’t understand why you guys like talking to each other like that." "We’re twins, if we don’t bicker with each other who will we do it with?" they "It might sound stupid, but when we bicker we get rid of all the beef and misgivings with each other, this way we won’t have to worry about keeping long grudges with each other." "And if if he still holds a grudge, I kick his stupid ass." "Or I kick his stupid ass. It’s just how we get along." Drake was tongue tied by these two. But then he thought about it and realized that this was probably why they had such an unbreakable bond. In every relationship, there would always be times when arguments arose. These arguments were are as a result of difference in opinions contradicting each other. Normally, this is good since people had different thought processes and small debates can help them come to the best decisions. But these little contradictions can also lead to conflicts and if these conflicts aren’t settled the right way they result in rifts in relationships and that could cause 99.9 out of a hundred relationships to collapse. But with these two they had nothing to worry about when it came to piling up grudges. That’s because they treated their misgivings and contradictions like If the water in this tank was let to accumulate over time it would soon be filled, on the day it was filled they would have reached the limit of their tolerance. But, these two didn’t let this tank get filled because they would always empty out the accumulated grievances every once in a while. Normally, when one was up against people that fought as a team like the twins did, the first thing to do to take them out would be to create a weakness by sowing dissension between them. But these two had completely rectified any chance of having this weakness. This made it so their relationship with each other was always kept at it’s best. Nothing could be perfect but at least the trust they had for each other was kept it ’It’s no wonder they are always in tune with each other.’ Drake thought, with some jealousy in his heart. It was hard not to envy them.
