"What....what happens with my eyes?"

Even though Xiao can feel his eyes with his touch, he has this strange feeling that his eyes no longer belong to him.

"Hmm...I guess I punch too hard till your eyes become weird, Hahaha!"

Tom laughed it off and was already readying his left punch to be released.

"Here, let me fix that for you!"

When Tom was about to release his punch, everything suddenly became slow motion to Xiao. He then saw something like a shadow of Tom delivering his attack punch to Xiao's face.

(What's this? Some foreshadowing?)

Before Xiao fully realized what was happening, the speed of time resumed back to normal and Tom was about to let go of his punch already.

Xiao quickly dodges based on what he had seen in the slow-motion mode just now, which he successfully evades Tom's attack.

"You little! How about this?!"

Angry at Xiao dodging his punch, Tom relentlessly performs another attack.

Again, the slow-motion mode kicks in, and also Tom's shadow. This time, it was an uppercut from the bottom right.

After a sec and a half, the speed of time resumes back to normal, Tom performs the same action shown by his shadow, which Xiao dodges effortlessly again.

"Stop dodging, you little cockroach!"

Angry that his two punches were hitting only air, Tom furiously threw out multiple punches to Xiao. And Xiao, having to see all the foreshadowing of every attack, evades every attack with ease.

Tom nearly exhausted all his energy in trying to land a punch to Xiao. Still, none of his attacks hit Xiao.

The position has switched now. Tom was already out of breath while Xiao was slowly recovering from his injury.

"What are you doing? Tom! Hit him, you dumbass!" Jerry shouted frustratedly from afar.

"I'm trying!" Tom shouted back, still gasping for air.

Although Xiao did all the miraculous dodges, even he was surprised by what he had just pulled off.

(No idea what kind of power I awakened, but now is not the time to find out.)

With this new obtained power, he saw the chances to escape from this situation. As Tom was still recovering his strength, Xiao started dashes to pass through him.

"Shit, you're not going anywhere!" Tom shouted as he tried to grab hold of Xiao the moment enters his parameter.

Xiao's prediction power activated as Tom's broad palm was heading towards him. He easily dodges the grab and continues forward.

Jerry was so stunned by Xiao's breakthrough that he panicked when Xiao was nearing him.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

As Xiao was closing in, Jerry reflectively threw a haymaker punch to him. Xiao does a perfect dodge and counters it with a straight punch to his face. Since Jerry was several times weaker than Tom, Xiao's attack sent him rolling to the ground.

"Well then, good night, shit heads!" Xiao sarcastically greets Jerry who's still moaning in pain on the ground and Tom who was heavily breathing as he tries to catch up.

Xiao then runs away from them with satisfaction. He was smiling like a child as he finally returned a portion of all the things the duo had done to him.

Without anyone stopping him in his path, Xiao successfully reaches his room, quietly climbs up to his bucker bed, and lays down on it.

A mixture of emotion runs through him, which has blown away all drowsiness he has. Xiao was excited about the new power he has obtained, which allows him to predict the action of his enemy for the next 1.5 sec.

(How the hell did I get this skill? Indeed, this isn't the result of my magic training, so it must be something to do with the unknown "thing" that Lars placed into my body.)

Xiao deduced that this prediction skill may be in the same category as his undying skill, which is still a mystery to Xiao as Lars never explains anything to him.

Xiao touches his eyes, thinking back the feeling he had when the prediction skill activated. It was a complicated feeling as he felt that his eyes were no longer his.

(I wonder if there are any side effects of using this skill? Lars did mention that my undying skill has a side effect as well, considering if I died too many times.)

After a long process of digesting the information Xiao had in his mind, his body finally reaches its limit as the fatigue kicks in, and Xiao falls asleep naturally.

The next day, Xiao reluctantly woke up and proceeded with the usual daily drill like the other private rank soldiers.

Surprisingly, Tom and Jerry were not present during the training. Xiao deduced that they may be having a hangover after drinking so heavily last night.

Xiao also lets out a relieved sigh as he doesn't have to meet them as it will only bring trouble to him.

Since lieutenant Carl announced private Tom and private Jerry were taking sick leave for today, that means Xiao won't need to participate in the combat simulation training for today, for the duo was assigned as Xiao's training partner.

(Lucky me, I won't be those shitheads punching bags for today. Yet, why did I get something worse than that?)

Supposedly Lieutenant Carl should exclude Xiao from the combat simulation training because his training partners were absent. Yet, he ordered fix people to replace the duo for today.

"Seems like Tom and Jerry were not here to take care of you today, don't worry, we volunteer to do it in their place in return!"

Fix people surrounding Xiao from every side of him, each of them rushes towards him like a wild animal.

(They seriously want me to suffer, huh. Well, no worries, I wanted to test out something too.)

Xiao quickly activates his prediction skill. His pupil instantly appears a blue edge cross, followed by all the foreshadowing he saw from all his attackers.

(It even works with multiple targets, this is perfect!)

Xiao begins dodging all the rush attacks with minimal footwork. The five private were surprised at first, but they made a battle cry and continued their relentless assault on Xiao.

Even with the ferocious shouts and death threatening of the five privates while they dish out all the attack that may end up killing Xiao, Xiao was surprisingly calm as he dances around their punches and kicks.

While evading and countering their attacks, Xiao found out a few things about this prediction skill of his. First, he needs to open his eyes to keep this skill activating. Second, the longer this skill is active, the greater the feeling of him losing control of his eyes, which he thinks may end up losing the ability to close his eyes.

The third point is, this skill can evolve. Xiao was only able to see the foreshadowing of his attacker when this skill first manifested. But now, he was even able to see the level of his attacker. Numbers were floating on each of his attackers.

(Now I can even see their level, it's just like those RPG games I played before, this is so cool!)

It was not long before all five of the privates lay tiredly on the floor, out of breath and holding the places they attacked in pain.

The only one standing in the middle was Xiao. Instead of gasping heavily for air or crawling on the ground like he used to, Xiao was still in excellent condition. He was overwhelmed with excitement at the skill he had discovered.

(Let's just call it the eyes of Gamer for now, in short, Gamer eyes!)

Xiao walks away from the training field casually as he thinks of a name for the skill, leaving the five people on the ground in awe.
