Chapter 46

A vast wave of reddish energy laced with electric snakes blasted out of Gustav’s body.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Trees within the vicinity were blasted apart as the energy wave incinerated a radius of three hundred feet around him.

Even the ground was scorched.

Gustav couldn’t imagine what would have happened if people were moving around here.

From then he had decided that he would only use the ability of this bloodline in cases of emergencies.

Although Gustav had said he wasn’t going to make use of the bloodline except in cases of emergencies, there were still times that the bloodline would activate by itself.

An example was when he almost absorbed the border during their travels.

He suspected earlier that a part of the energy would be absorbed into his body if the gravitational field was filled up but the system had shown that it would absorb the rest of the energy if the gravitational field was filled up.

Gustav would go to the forest area every day to try and train his control of this bloodline but even with that he still couldn’t grasp control of it properly.

He had calculated that the amount of force generated when he made use of discharge after absorbing two blocks of light was equivalent to a small nuclear electromagnetic force with wild electric currents within.

It packed a lot of compounded destructive force and he could tell that a Zulu-ranked mixed-blood would be instantly blasted apart if he decided to unleased it before them.

Right now his gravitational field was filled up again. The energy always surrounded him and couldn’t be sensed by anyone else besides him.

In other words, Gustav was like a walking bomb right now.

’I just need to keep things under the wraps, for now, I’ve been attracting a lot of attention to myself recently,’ Gustav said internally.

But after recalling every event that happened to date, he realized that there were a lot of things that he couldn’t have done low-key.

Although he could’ve carried out some of his actions better, he wouldn’t have been able to pull some things off if he wasn’t under the spotlight.

Now that he had a C-grade bloodline, he had fulfilled all the requirements for joining the MBO.

The only issue was coming up with a good explanation as to why he was C-grade instead of being below F-grade.

Gustav started coming with other plans and drafts in his mind for possible future occurrences.

It was already seven pm at this time.

Gustav remembered that he was supposed to meet Angy on the two-hundredth and thirty-eight floor to play some games.

He stood up and walked out of the room.

It took him about five minutes before he arrived on the floor where a lot of students visited to play arcade games.

On entering what greeted Gustav’s sight were glittering lights and a crowd of people moving to and fro.

The place was as large as an entire outdoor park. Different kinds of gadgets could be seen at different spots.

There were spots for playing shooting games, parkour games, virtual reality, casino bets, e.t.c.

This floor was always busy because of this.

"Gustav," A feminine voice called out to him from ahead.

It was a girl in a white and green gown with an athletic figure. She had a beautiful and warm face; with silver and pink shoulder-length hair. Two small horns protruded from her forehead and light makeup was applied on her face making her look particularly dazzling.

"You came," Angy said as she arrived before Gustav.

"Yes, why wouldn’t I?" Gustav asked with a confused look while checking her out.

’Why is she all dressed up?’ Gustav wondered.

He was astonished by the way Angy looked so gorgeous with her get up.

He was only wearing some plain trousers and a blue jacket so he didn’t stick out in any way among the crowd of people unlike her.

"Hihi, I thought you would ditch me..." Angy said with a smile on her tender face.

"Why would I ditch you, Angy?" Gustav asked with a look of confusion as they walked together

"Well... You always avoid me since I’m such a bother and you never take that look off your face," Angy said with a look of embarrassment.

"What look?" Gustav with a confused expression.

"Ah, don’t mind me, what games are we playing tonight?" She quickly changed the topic.

"Hmm," Gustav stared at her from the side with a suspicious look before replying, "Let’s go to the spacecraft simulator first,"

"Ah, I knew you were going to pick that one,* Angy said with a smile, "My friends are waiting for us there," She added.

"Friends?" Gustav said with a surprised look.

"Yes, they wanted to meet you," Angy replied with a gleeful expression.

Gustav still felt uncomfortable when the word, friend, was mentioned but since it was Angy he didn’t think much of it.

They kept walking until they arrived somewhere around the middle of the floor.

Around here there were different screens placed above that showed spacecrafts battling in space.

There were several battle rings where people with a helmet over their heads sat onto a chair.

They weren’t moving but their brains were working at the moment.

This part of the arcade was where VR games were played.

"Arianna, Elle," Angy called out to two girls who were currently occupying one circle.

"Angy," Both girls called out at the same time and walked to meet up with Angy ahead.

Arianna was brunette with cherry red lips while Elle has green short hair and matured looking face.

Both of them were good-looking.

"Is Lim still at it with that guy?" Angy asked when she arrived in front of them.

"Yes, he’s proving a bit difficult to defeat," The girls turn around to look at the circle behind and the screen above.

The two other people within the circle currently seated on a pilot-like chair with helmets on their heads.

One was a female while the other was a male.

They were currently inside the game going against each other with their spacecraft.

On the screen above, two large war spacecrafts wheezed across space shooting laser beams at one another intensely.

It was hard for one to hit the other due to the way they moved fluidly.

One was pinkish and red while the other was full black.

The former was being piloted by their friend while the latter was being piloted by the guy.

- Meeting Angys Friends

- Meeting Angys Friends

- Meeting Angy's Friends

It was obvious that they were both skilled.

The two girls noticed the handsome blond hair male behind Angy.

"Angy is that...?" Elle voiced out with an astonished look.

"Gustav?" Arianna shouted out with excitement and walked towards him.

She arrived before Gustav and grabbed his right hand with both her hands.

She held them up with an excited expression as she spoke.

"Gustav I’m a fan..."

Gustav was surprised with the way she just grabbed him.

Another thing was his hand was currently resting on her perky boobs. Gustav didn’t know if this was done on purpose or subconsciously.

"Your knowledge on almost everything is second to none among our peers and I’m still in disbelief even now, I’m also shocked that you’re dating our best friend, let’s all be friends please," She begged with a smile.

Gustav was still short of words so he didn’t hear the part where Arianna mentioned dating their best friend.

Pah!

"Oi, what are you saying? You’ll scare him away," Elle slapped Arianna’s head from behind causing her to drop Gustav’s hand.

The feeling of softness and squishiness left his palm after it disengaged from her chest.

"Gustav, just ignore her, We’re glad you’re here," Elle said with a smile.

"Hey, come on why did I have to receive a slap?" Arianna said with a glare and pout.

"Because you’re creeping him out," Elle glared back at Arianna.

Angy’s face was already turning red from embarrassment behind them as she stared at Gustav’s face occasionally, ’Da-da-da-da-ting,’ Her mind wandered to another realm as the redness on her face intensified.

It was almost like smoke was going to start erupting from her head soon.

’Hmm what a fun bunch... They don’t seem bad,’ Gustav said internally while scrutinizing bickering girls.

"He doesn’t look creeped out to me," Arianna said in her defense.

"Well..." Elle was about to answer when she was interrupted by Gustav’s statement.

"It’s ending," Gustav said while staring at the screen.

"Ending?" Both girls voiced out as they followed Gustav’s line of sight.

They stared at the screen also and noticed that the battle was still going on.

"She has won," Gustav said with a certain look.

The girls stared at the screen with a look of confusion.

They couldn’t see any signs that their friend was winning but in the next few seconds, their eyes widened.

Two wormholes suddenly appeared out of nowhere while the pinkish spacecraft was being chased by the black.

Due to the fact that the wormhole was still gathering power when it just appeared its pull wasn’t powerful enough to hold the pinkish spacecraft in place.

This allowed the pinkish spacecraft to speed out of its AOE but the same couldn’t be said for the black spacecraft behind.

The black spacecraft was being pulled left and right by the gravitational force of both wormholes, preventing it from moving for a while.

The pinkish spacecraft suddenly did a one hundred and eighty degrees turn and shot out a large pillar-like Lazer beam towards the black spacecraft.

Trooiinnn!

The laser beam pierced through the spacecraft.

Boom!

The spacecraft exploded into smithereens.

"PLAYER LIM WINS!"

"Haha, Lim won," Arianna voiced out gleefully.

Angy was brought out of her imagination after hearing that.

"Damn it how could I lose! Let’s go again!" The guy who had just lost pulled off his helmet and voiced out.

Another beautiful face was unveiled when the other girl removed the helmet on her head.

It was a slightly tanned red-haired beauty. Her body shape was already looking attractive before she removed the helmet. Now that she did, it further increased her attractiveness.

"Once a loser always a loser... You’ve lost the chance to have me, Get lost!" The girl said with a fierce glare.

"But... But I..." The boy wanted to retort but her fierce gaze made him flinch back in fear.

She kept staring at him in that manner till he turned around and left.

"Wow, Lim is at it again," Arianna said with a burst of light laughter.

Lim turned around to stare at Arianna, Elle, and Angy.

"He was bound to lose and there’s no way I’d go out with a loser anyway," Lim said.

"Oh is that...?" She noticed Gustav behind.

The girls noticed that she was staring at Gustav and smiled.

"Yes he’s Gustav," Arianna said with a delighted look.

Lim stood up from her seat and walked towards them.

Lim reacted with a look of astonishment and turned to stare at Angy, "He’s cute... Can I have him?" Lim said with a smirk.

Even Gustav was shocked by the sudden statement, ’Is this how girls act?’ he wasn’t used to speaking with girls so he had no idea how he was supposed to respond.

"Eh?!!!" Angy shrieked and move towards the side to stand in between Lim and Gustav.

"Haha I’m just kidding," Lim said and stood up.

"There will probably be another challenger soon," Lim added.

"Hah, it’s all your fault after all, why would you declare such a thing in the first place?" Elle said while sighing.

Lim issued a challenge recently. Anyone that was able to defeat her in this game would be given the chance to date her. Since then, boys from every school had been coming to challenge her.

"I declared such because no one can defeat me," Lim said with boldness.

Since she issued the challenge not a single person had been able to win her.

The three girls sighed when they heard that. Lim was very prideful after all.

"Hey Gustav I heard that you’re good at playing this," Lim said while walking towards Gustav.

"I’m just a beginner," Gustav replied with a dismissive look.

"Oh a beginner, Angy said you beat quite a lot of students here yesterday... How about we have a go?" She proposed while staring into Gustav’s eyes.

"I’m still a beginner compared to you so you’ll only waste time playing with me... I’m assured to lose," Gustav replied to her casually.

"You won’t lose anything from losing but if you defeat me you’ll get the chance to date me," She said while winking.

"Hey, Lim behave, that’s Angy’s crus..." Arriana didn’t get the chance to complete her words before Elle covered her mouth.

"Alright let’s play... I might need some tips from a pro player after all," Gustav said with a smile.

Angy had a worried look on her face after hearing that.

"Don’t worry he’ll lose," Lim said while staring at Angy.

Angy pouted her lips in displeasure, ’Gustav better lose,’ She said internally.

Gustav only smiled and walked towards the chair.

He grabbed the helmet and took his seat.

"Shall we," Gustav said like a gentleman.

"Yes we shall, haha, prepare to lose but don’t worry I’ll take it easy on you," Lim sounded like a sweet villainess with her statement.

"Alright let’s play," Gustav placed the helmet on his head at the same time with Lim.

-Three minutes later.

"PLAYER GUSTAV WINS!"

These words were displayed on the screen along with blown-up parts of a pinkish spacecraft floating away in space.

The three girls watching from behind had their mouths wide open.

"How did Lim lose that easily?" Even Angy was surprised.

- Repeated Defeat

- Repeated Defeat

- Repeated Defeat

Lim’s expression of disbelief became visible after she removed her helmet.

Gustav pulled off his helmet too. A small grin could be seen on his face.

"Thanks for going easy on me," Gustav said with a look of appreciation.

"Cut the bullshit, how did you do that?" Lim asked.

"So vulgar for a young lady," Gustav said with a smile.

The girls behind chuckled upon hearing that and seeing Lim swell up due to frustration.

"It’s really very simple, just study the patterns of the superclusters and Pleiades properly so you know which parts of space are weaker and more likely to collapse due to Intensely powerful blasts," Gustav explained with a profound look.

Three minutes ago when he started playing with her, Gustav didn’t try to battle her head-on.
