Eli stood up and narrowed his eyes.
[Full Throttle] Activated! 3x!
Speed: SS- (Up+)
A trail of blue lightning follows Eli’s movements. The students turned their heads around, and their eyes widened.
MP: 575/725 (-150)
I only have a few seconds.
You used [Moon Stomp]!
MP: 475/725 (-100)
I’ll take out the weakest one.
Eli’s foot sank into Gwyneth’s face, and her head slammed into the asphalt ground.
The two students grit their teeth and lunge at Eli.
You used [Pierce]!
MP: 275/725 (-200)
My MP is draining too fast! He’s still up!
The student staggered back as their hand shot out to grab their nose.
You used [Pierce]!
MP: 225/725 (-50)
The student fell with a satisfying thud.
“You bastard!”

“This is a battle between me and you,” Eli raised his guard.
Richard lunged at Eli and threw a punch. Eli ducks down, delivering a jab.
You used [Jab]!
Richard’s head jerked backward but quickly doubled down.
“What a weak punch!” Richard throws another punch but to no avail.
I want to try something.
You used [Paralyze]!

[Cooldown: Once]
Richard’s eyes widened as he couldn’t move his body.
“What did you do—?!”
Dozens of jabs rained on Richard’s body.
You used [Jab]! You used [Jab]! You used [Jab]! You used [Jab]…! Critical Hit…!
Richard’s eyes rolled back as he fell to the ground.
[Paralyze] ended!
Ding!
[New Main Quest!]
Main Quest: Defeat the Thugs (3/3)
“Reveal,” Eli’s back hits the wall. He slowly slid down the wall.
[Gold Card]
Title: Golden Tongue
Eli looks at the students as they groan in pain. Suddenly, a lightbulb lights. Eli sauntered over.
[Golden Tongue] Activated!
Eli crouched down at their level.
“Where did you guys come from? Also, join us, join the Eli Fam. Together, we will unify the A-District,” Eli extends his hands to the students.
“We come from this part, the south. The leader of the South wanted to see your strength.”
Hmm, they joined, but I still haven’t completed the quest. Maybe I should add one of them to my party. I’ll add Gwyneth since she has the most potential.
Gwyneth Reed has been added to the [Party]!

[Gold Card]> Reveal! [Diamond Card] Title: Training Field Durability: [Once] ---------------------------------------- [Gold Card] Title: Let Me See Eli’s eyes widened at the cards. [Training Field]? I would be able to train by myself? That’s good, hella good. [Let Me See]? Wait…other people have cards?! I guess they don’t know that they have them. I want to check. I’ll do it at the apartment. [Few Hours Later] Open party. Party: [Jules Lee], [Levi Lee], [Gwyneth Reed] Eli’s finger tapped on [Jules Lee]. Jules Lee Height: 163 cm (5’4 ft) Weight: 52 kg (114 lbs) Strength: B Endurance: B- Speed: S Potential: A Intelligence: B Exclusives: [Taekwondo] Oh, that’s how Jules can do those fancy kicks. I suppose that Levi also has the same? Levi Lee Height: 183 cm (6’0 ft) Weight: 83 kg (182 lbs) Strength: SS Endurance: SS Speed: SS+ Potential: S Intelligence: S Exclusives: [Taekwondo], [Copy] Copy? Eli’s finger hovered over the [Copy] button; he tapped it. [Exclusive Card] Wait a minute! Is that how he copied my moves when we fought?! That’s a broken ability! How many fighting styles has he copied?! Levi knows about Fixation, so he must know about Copy, right? Eli’s jaw hung loose. The apartment door swung open, and Levi waltzed, wearing a work uniform. “Hey, Levi?” Eli’s voice wavered. “What is it, Eli?” Levi took off his uniform, revealing his lean frame. “Do you know about Copy?” Levi stops in his tracks and narrows his eyes. “Yes, I know about Copy. Why?” Levi puts on his shirt. “Can you do that technique?” “Yes, I can. Eli, I need to tell you something,” Levi placed his hand on Eli’s shoulder. “When we fought, you were using Fixation, I know I told you that, but your eyes were soulless. The Eli I fought copied Jules’ technique. Just who are you?” Levi’s voice was slow and stern. “Who’s your family? Where did you come from? Just who are you, Eli?” Levi starts shooting out questions. “Uh, my family, I don’t know! My mother and father died! I don’t… I don’t remember. I don’t know anything past six years old. I remember that me and my br—guardian—“ “No, tell me, finish that word,” Levi intercepts. “M-my… brother, Jack Gray.” “Jack?! As the one who united the A-District in under a week?! No wonder you can use Fixation,” Levi’s eyes widened as his heart sank. “Eli, I speculate that you have Copy. Follow me,” Levi ushered Eli outside on the rooftop. “Try to copy what I do,” Levi crossed his arms. Levi swung his leg, performing a calf kick. Eli tries to copy it, doing a flimsy calf kick. “It’s miserable, but you definitely copied it. Copy this,” Levi spun his body around, performing a spinning roundhouse. Eli gulped and tried to imitate, failing miserably as he fell to the ground. “You need to grow stronger. You’re still too weak,” Levi ran his hand through his hair. “Let’s spar, Eli. I want to see how far you’ve come since we trained for a month,” Levi went into a stance. Eli gets into a stance and rushes to Levi. If it’s true… then do I really need a system? Can’t I just copy all the techniques? Eli’s hand curled into a tight fist as he shifted his weight, hammering a punch. Levi sidesteps, placing his hand on the ground, and rotates, performing a cartwheel kick. Levi’s foot slams into Eli’s skull, making it hit on the ground. Eli’s eyes rolled back as he coughed. He gets on fours as his vision spirals. Black spots filled his vision as he met Levi’s gaze. “You taught me that move, Eli.” Shit, I’ve been lacking in my training. I haven’t completed my quest yet!
