Adhara is currently inside Ochyra University's Training Hall, the sweat on her body indicates that she's currently working hard on her skills.

Swish! Swish!

The dagger on Adhara's hand dances as she swings it left and right.

She remembers the routine given by Edward, he said that she will need to swing a dagger in front of her before quickly turning her body and slashing her back.

Edward said that she need to do this until she can do it easily.

It's the basics of dagger-wielding, if she can't do that much then Edward advised that she's not meant to use a dagger.

From that, Edward told Adhara to try this for a week.

If she can't swing a dagger easily within a week, then she is better off learning other weapons aside from a dagger.

That is what Adhara currently aiming for, she swears to herself that she will master this movement in a couple of days or two to make sure that she's indeed worthy of wielding a dagger.

Many students glance in her direction, the purple fire is a sight to behold.

"Did she evolve her element?"

"What a powerful fire, I can feel the intense heat it emitted"

"Look at my fire! It's started to diminish as if it's scared of Adhara's fire"

The students discuss Adhara's fire in a whisper, they're marveled at her domineering fire that makes the other fires look weak.

Along with her dagger skill training, she also tries to perfectly incorporate the purple fire she just got into the dagger.

It will make her attack more lethal if she manages to do this.

Her dagger glows purple as she jumped and slashes like a ballet dancer performing for the eyes that are glued onto her.

The ground is charred black, it can't contain the purple fire Adhara emitted.

'I'm still not used to the purple fire, I need to be faster', she thought.

Adhara's body permeates intense purple heat that makes the students that are training around move back, the heat she emits makes their skin boil.

It's simply an element way higher than the other students, it's on a completely different level.

SWOOSH!

The purple fire envelope not only her dagger but also her body as she started her training again trying her best to be accustomed to her new element.

From the incident before, where she ran out of mana.

It comes to her attention that she needs more time with her new element, its power is still a mystery for even herself.

Having that incident happen to her once is not her fault, but if that same incident manages to cucked her the second time then it will be her fault.

That's why she will address this incident, she doesn't want it to happen the second time.

Adhara's eyes glow purple as he looks at the dummy in front of her,

The dummy is a regular dummy, it's not the same as the dummy in Faraday University that can be adjusted to the power of the Awakened using it.

She readies her dagger before she sent a purple fire slash towards the dummy, "Hyaaah!!"

BOOM!

The dummy exploded upon hitting the purple fire, it got completely scorched as the purple fire spread to the ground.

While looking at the purple fire, Adhara felt a connection with it.

It's like the purple fire is asking her for more energy, it's communicating with Adhara as if the purple fire has a consciousness of its own.

Adhara squinted her eyes as she tries to control the purple fire, "BURN!!"

BOOM!

The purple fire exploded as it obeys Adhara's command, the purple fire become rampant as it spread to the surrounding even more as if it got fueled by Adhara's word.

Seeing this, Adhara looks at her hand in realization, 'The purple fire got stronger because of my emotion, the stronger I put my emotion in it the stronger the purple fire'

Adhara finally realizes the purple fire's innate properties, she can see the purple fire absorb the emotion aura around her body.

It's a sight to behold, the purple fire is stronger than what she expects.

The day turns to night as Adhara trains endlessly, her body got more and more accustomed to the purple fire.

'I didn't feel that tired yet, is this the effect of becoming a Werewolf?', she thought.

Even after training until almost midnight, she can still feel that she can keep going endlessly until the sun rises again.

It shocked Adhara to find her stamina increased greatly, or her stamina recovery has been enhanced. She didn't know which one is true but the main thing is that she was not tired.

Just as Adhara wanted to continue her training,

Clap! Clap! Clap!

She heard someone clapping from her back, she turns her body and saw Hera clapping her hands while walking towards her.

Hera is wearing her usual Lecturer's outfit, and Adhara can feel a slight change in her.

The fire mana her body emits is stronger than before, it almost reaches rank five if given a little bit more time of meditation.

"Ms. Hera? What are you doing here?", Adhara asks, she and Hera are not that close.

Hearing this, Ms. Hera glanced at the purple fire and said, "That's a powerful element, did you just evolve your element?"

Adhara looks at the still-burning purple fire before she waves her hand and extinguishes it, "Yes, I just evolve my element with the help of Rex"

Hera's eyebrows raised when she heard Rex's voice, her expression becomes complicated.

Adhara notice this, she saw Hera's emotion aura become gray which means that she is nervous, concerned, or confused about something.

"Can you accompany me to the south wing park?", Hera asks.

Adhara wanted to say no because she's currently in training, but when she looks at Hera she can feel that there's something she wanted to talk to her about.

'Is she wanted to talk about Rex? It's the only thing major enough', Adhara thought.

Unknown to Adhara, Hera becomes even more concerned when she saw Adhara's fire turn into purple fire.

Hera also got stunned when she heard Adhara say that she manages to evolve her element with Rex's help.

In Hera's eyes, Adhara also becomes a valuable asset for the university and she can't hold onto Adhara if she can't hold Rex back.

Adhara will always stick to Rex, that is what Hera deduce when they're living together.

That time when they were still in Faraday University, Hera told the upper management about her encounter with Rex outside of the Faraday University's principal office.

She told the upper management about her concern that Rex will be scouted.

If Rex got scouted into Faraday University, they will surely lose the second strongest first-year student that is Adhara who will always follow Rex.

"Okay, but I can't be too long", Adhara said.

After agreeing to talk with Hera, they both then leave the Training Hall.

They both went to a park near the Training Hall, there's a water fountain in the middle that decorates the park and lush greenery that makes the place beautiful.

Many couples went here as they talk with each other, it's a famous place for couples to hang out.

Hera sits on the park's bench before Adhara follows suit, they both are looking at the students that are laughing and flirting with their couple.

"Do you know what Rex talks about in the Faraday University's principal office?", Hera asks straight to the point.

Hearing this, Adhara frowns as she tries to remember.

But then, she didn't remember Rex told her that, "I don't think so, I didn't even know he went to the principal's office"

Hera expected this, she fears that Adhara didn't know about it too.

She then bit her lips and said, "After the tournament against Faraday University, Rex went to the principal's office out of the blue"

"You know what that means right?", Hera asks as she glances at Adhara.

Adhara frowns, 'So that's why I feel a weird vibe around both of them before, turns out they both meet when Rex went to the principal's office'

She then glances at Hera, "If you're asking me to beg Rex to stay then I can't, it's simply impossible for me to convince Rex"

After saying that, Adhara corrected herself in her thoughts, 'Well, it's not absolutely impossible'

Adhara remembers Rex's weird behavior that keeps occurring these days, she doesn't mind it though because she too feels the same weird feeling.

It's like butterflies tickling her guts, it makes her weak in front of Rex.

She then continues, "The only way to make Rex stay is through benefits, I know what he wants and his goal and both of them can't be reached without benefits"

Hearing this, Hera grabs Adhara's hand before she said, "Our resources are not comparable to Faraday University, we also got many more times the students so it's impossible for us to match the benefits given by Faraday University"

Adhara looks at Hera with a stoic expression, she then said flatly, "Then I can't help you"

After saying that, Adhara stands up before she left Hera.

From the way Hera talks, Adhara can see right through her lies.

She can see emotion aura and she can tell that Hera is lying, the university can give Rex more benefits but they're just not willing to.

It may be the repercussion that is too great, but they still can.

Knowing that Adhara left immediately, 'They just can't see Rex's worth, and Faraday University can see his worth that can even put the most talented people to shame'

After Adhara leaves, a guy approaches Hera.

"How did it go?", the guy asked, he's sitting on Hera's side while asking this.

Hera tied her hair in stress before she replied, "It doesn't go well, she said that the only way to make Rex stay is to give him benefits"

"Should we just threaten him? It will be easy for me to crack his will", the guy said.

Hearing this, Hera chuckles mockingly.

The guy looks at Hera weirdly before she said mockingly, "You? An early rank five? You will not crack him even if you brought more of you"

"It won't work, consider it an educated guess based on experience traveling with him. He got more stuff in the dark, you might even get killed by him if you try anything funny", Hera warned.

Her experience traveling with Rex in Faraday University makes her skin crawl, he kills many white assassins as if they're not human.

And she can tell that Rex is not going all out against Kevin, it makes her skin cold portraying the scene where the white assassin's bodies are scattered around.

Rex is simply not a regular student with a weak will, he's trained in the military.

"There's no way that brat can do that, I'm confident in my skills", the guy said brushing off Hera's warning.

Hera stands up from the seat and said, "You can be confident until you meet him, just remember that I warned you", she walks away leaving the guy.

Just when she's around the corner, she said, "Let me try a couple of days, I think it might work"

Meanwhile,

Rex is currently sitting under a tree, he has already arrived at the city where his mission lies.

There's a black book on his hand with a 'Black Field Orko' sign on the cover, it is the spellbook that utilizes his Black Lightning directly.

Unlike the Flash, Lightning Salvo, and Mystic Shock which are Lightning-based spells, the Black Field Orko is a spell that can only be used by Black Lightning Elementalist like Rex.

Rex's trying to learn the Black Field Orko because he wanted to save his gold, the frown on his face indicates that he's focusing on the spellbook.

He read the spellbook's content when suddenly, "Haachoo!!", he sneezes.

'Is someone talking about me behind my back?', Rex thought while rubbing his nose.

Just as he thought about that, he suddenly can feel the ground trembling as the city guards turn on the siren to warn the city folks.

Hearing this, Rex puts the spellbook in his inventory before he stretches his body.

Rex cracked his knuckles before he jumped to the city wall, he saw a huge cloud of dust from hundreds of creatures rushing towards him with a smile.

He checks his stats before he said, "Let's start farming Exp!"
