My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

Chapter 31: A Lesson



After logging off, Jake quickly rushed off to his dorm before it was curfew time. Meanwhile at the same time that Jake got to his building, a secret meeting was going on in the second year building.

"C'mon brother, it has been so many days and you haven't done anything yet." Sebastian said.

"You are so impatient. You have waited for some days now right? Then wait for a few more hours then I will help you get revenge. Just be patient." Harry said. And then Sebastian left the second building for his dorm because of the curfew.

The next day, Jake woke up feeling good for defeating the shark fighter and then he got out of bed for his daily quest as usual. After his quest, he pulled up his status screen.

After checking his status screen, Jake headed off to his room for a bath. After a few hours, the whole room except Peter and Jack went to take their breakfast. When they were done with their breakfast, they headed to their homeroom class as usual without Peter but when they got to the entrance of their homeroom class, them and several other students were stopped.

The people stopping them, were second-year students and they had asked all the students to gather at the assembly hall.

"What the heck is going on?" Kate asked.

"I have no idea." Jake answered. "But I think it will be best for us to comply with whatever they asked us to do."

Of course, the second-year were powerful and the first-year students had no choice but to agree. Even the higher level and rank, had agreed to comply afraid something might happen.

All of the hundred and fifty first-year students had gathered in the assembly hall, around them was not a single teacher but just several second-year students. Up on the stage, the curtains were drawn and in front of it stood Harry.

"What the hell is going on now?" Jake asked quietly. "And who the heck is that?"

That was when Jake noticed that Vynn was shaking, no, more like he was trembling in fear after seeing who was on stage. It wasn't only Jake that noticed it, Sophia and Kate also noticed it.

"Vynn, what is the matter? Why are you trembling?" Kate asked looking concerned.

"No no no no. This is bad." Vynn said shaking his head.

"What happened? What is going on? Why are you suddenly afraid of who came on stage?" Sophia asked.

"That.. Don't you know who is that?" Vynn asked his lips quivering in fear.

Suddenly, a realization dawned on Jake. "Vynn, is- is he Sebastian's elder brother?"

To which Vynn nodded answering Jake's question. Sophia and Kate were both shocked and a little bit afraid but they decided to listen to what Harry had to say.

"Welcome every single one of you." Harry said. "Today we have a very special event, a special message to all you first years. You see, there has been someone who decided to go against us and also to mess with us and am here to tell you that this is what happens when you mess with us or our family."

Harry pulled down on a piece of string and the curtains on the stage opened up, as the curtains moved away slowly, it started to reveal a student who had been tied up and placed on a large piece of wood. The student was bloody and had markings of being beaten everywhere.

"Peter?!" Jake said.

Just then several of the second-year students pulled out carts that seemed to be filled with large black circular stones. Harry picked up one of the round balls and held it in his hand.

"This here is a metal ball that has been embedded with the power of a beast crystal." Said Harry. "When the earth had found beasts and their crystals, and a way to forge equipments with beast crystals, that was what gave us edge against the werewolves. But what they don't teach you as first years, is that the crystals or weapons need to be activated. And it can only be activated by something all of us humans have which is Qi. Once activated, they can give out extra power."

Jake watching the whole thing couldn't help but look at the badly beaten up Peter. He was wondering how on earth Harry could stand there and talk so casually as if he was giving a presentation to the whole class.

"So us second years have decided to give you first year students free lesson and a short cut. Today we will show you how to activate beast crystals by using these metal balls."

That was when a first year student raised his hand to ask a question.

"Uhmm, does any of the teachers know about this?"

For a moment, there was silence in the hall, even the first years couldn't believe that someone could ask such a question in this type of situation. It was obvious even to the dumbest of person that this was done behind the teachers backs.

Then a second year student had come from the side of the assembly hall and immediately punched the student who asked the question in the face. The second-year student repeatedly punched the person until he eventually passed out.

"Any more questions?" Harry asked.

The first year students stood in silence afraid of the second-years. They didn't want to say anything or ask any questions after they saw what happened to the boy who asked a question earlier.

"Good." Harry, said before continuing. Now to explain, these beast stones here were made with the purpose to help you activate your equipment so, to be honest, they are quite useless but they are very useful for demonstration. Now in order to activate this balls, you just have to focus your Qi into it and it will activate. Even the tiniest bit of Qi when focused into the ball, it will activate."

Just when Harry finished saying that, the ball he held in his hand started glowing a bright yellow colour.

"Normally, your weapons won't change colour but as I said, these balls are just for the sake of helping you learn how to activate weapons. Once the colour has changed, that means it has been successfully activated and its strength has increased. Now today we will be practising target hitting." Harry said.

'Now let's see how he feels when someone he cares about gets hurt badly and he can't do anything about it.' Harry thought while smiling.

'This is wonderful! He is going to feel powerless against what is happening and if he tries anything funny, he's going to be beaten in front of everyone.' Sebastian thought.

Meanwhile, the second-year students wheeled the board that Peter was tied on from the stage onto the floor where the first-year students where.

"This board here, is very special in the sense that even a bullet can't penetrate it. That is how tough and hard the board is. Only the power of beast weapons or Qi can damage the board. So hence today's lesson is to throw and hit the target. Simple right?."

After finishing his speech, the remaining second-year students poured out the crates that were filled with beast stones on the floor. There were more than enough stones there for each students to pick and throw at Peter.

"So for this lesson, you have to get 50 points to pass otherwise, I don't know what will happen." Harry smiled. "The stomach area of this student, worth 50 points while the area a little bit to his arm side is worth 30 points and the outer area is worth 20 points each and you only have two throws. So who's going to go first?"

The first-year students were all hesitating to do it and no one wanted to step forward except one who managed to step forward.

"I am gonna do it." Sophia said stepping forward smiling. "I have been looking for a chance to hit him just once and now I got it so I'm not gonna turn it down."

Harry was initially shocked because according to his Intel, Sophia was friends with Peter so why was she going to hit her friend.

"Great." Harry said snapping out of his surprise. "It's a good thing there's a volunteer. So you need to pick one of the balls and throw."

Sophia bent down, picked up a ball and focused hard and then the ball started glowing a bright yellow colour just like when Harry held the ball. And then she aimed at Peter then she flung the ball hard and it hit the the 30 point side, then she picked up another ball and threw it again hitting one of the 20 point area therefore earning her 50 points.

"See, we can avoid hitting him by hitting the other areas." Sophia shouted towards the first-years.

Then one students also went ahead to hit the target like how Sophia did but he missed his target therefore earning him a severe beating by the second-years therefore rendering him unconscious.

Seeing this, the students all decided to comply with the second-year students wishes by hitting Peter with the ball causing Jake's blood to boil the more Peter was being hit. And then finally Jake decided to do something.

"Hey! Let me go next." Jake said smiling while picking up one of the balls.
