My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

After his match was over with the red dragon that turned out to be the son of Rex Slade; Alex's brother, Jake went to his room to relax and that was when he felt and heard a shuffling sound coming from under his pillow.

Pulling out whatever was making that noise, Jake saw it was a letter that read.

"I know your identity and if you don't want it revealed to the whole academy, then meet me at the academy's arena by 9pm."

Reading it, Jake screamed Alex's name swearing to make him pay for ever trying to blackmail him.

After waiting for a few hours, it was almost time for the supposed meeting with whoever dropped the letter in his room.

It was 8pm and all his roommates were filtering into the room one by one and that was when his eyes laid on Kate.

Who had an annoyed expression on her face looking at Jake.

'Ah that's right. I was supposed to meet Kate on the roof today.' Jake thought as an idea just clicked in his head.

Opening up his system, Jake navigated to the guild part then he clicked on Peter's name to send a message.

After typing it, he sent the message and everybody heard Peter yelp in surprise.

"What happened?" Sophia asked.

"It's nothing." Peter replied as he stared at the system screen in front of him.

'I forgot that I even had this system screen of a thing.' Peter thought as he went on to read the contents of the message.

It read, {Tomorrow, after the academy's classes are over, I want you to find an excuse to bring Kate over to the roof.}

Reading it, Peter looked at Kate then at Jake before replying the message.

{Sure boss}

After seeing Peter's reply, Jake relaxed and waited for when it was going to be time for the meeting. That was when Jack said he was going to bed and everybody also decided to go to bed by 8:30pm.

Jake pretended to be asleep as he waited for the time. Jake waited for a few more minutes before sneaking out of the room heading to the academy's gates.

There, he saw that the soldiers were still guarding the gate. Thinking fast, Jake ran back to the roof and looked out at the city then he equipped his robe so he could cover his face and also his gauntlets along with his boots.

Before Jake started scaling the roof's wall heading down. He was climbing down rapidly and so quickly until he was now outside the academy gates.

Jake didn't waste any time in rushing ahead to the arena with full speed. Strangely, with this amount of speed and running, Jake wasn't tired nor out of breath.

'I think my high level of Endurance is kicking in.' Jake thought as he sprinted forward.

And finally, in ten minutes, Jake was already in front of the arena five minutes earlier than the scheduled time. Just in case, Jake equipped his sword again and slowly walked into the arena and there, he could see someone waiting for him.

The person jumped out of the now repaired stands and landed a few feet away from Jake under the now fully shining moon with his red fiery hair and his trusty giant sword strapped to his back.

"I knew it was you." Jake said with his face contorted in anger.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I warned you right, that if you were to try stand in my way of achieving my goals that you will have to face the full force of my wrath and you went ahead to send me that letter." Jake asked already gripping his sword tighter.

"Letter?" Alex asked genuinely surprised. "What letter?"

"Don't play stupid here!" Jake shouted. "You sent me a letter saying if I didn't get here by 9pm, you were going to reveal my identity to everybody."

"To be sincere, I didn't send you any such letter. I was in town getting some things. I was allowed to go into town because of who my family is; perks of being the son of one of the world leaders."

"That was when I saw you heading this way and I decided to get a head start to get here and see why you were here. I didn't send you any letter." Alex explained.

"If you didn't, then who did?" Jake asked as he lifted his head when his eyes widened.

"Look out!" Jake shouted as he pushed Alex out of the way and then grabbed a flying projectile that was heading towards Alex initially.

"What is this?" Jake asked as he brought it further closer to his face. "This is an arrow! Who shot it?"

Alex also came over and stood beside Jake and that was when from the stands, and also the gates, 6 men jumped into the arena all having one thing in common which was their black outfit that concealed all of their identities.

"I never expected you to grab a Qi filled arrow like that. Which goes to show how dangerous you are and why the boss wanted you dead." A man was heard speaking.

Hearing the name boss, Jake turned to look at Alex. It all made sense for Alex to get people to come assassinate him since Alex knew he wasn't strong enough to.

Looking at Jake's expression, Alex shook his head.

"Don't look at me like that, I don't know them neither do I know who the hell their boss is. So don't you dare suspect me." Alex said. Enjoy new adventures from empire

Jake was now stumped on what to do but he couldn't dwell on who sent the assassins for long because they were now rushing towards he and Alex.

"No matter how strong I am, I don't think I can handle six people on my own especially if they are skilled. So I need to ask this favor from you, can you please take care of at least three of them while I handle the remaining three." Jake requested.

"Awwn, you are being cute asking me nicely like that." Alex smiled then he pulled his giant sword from his back and his face went from playful to serious.

"You saved my life earlier with the werewolf attack and now you still saved my life from that Qi filled arrow. If you weren't here, I would have died tonight so I owe you massively. And I was planning on paying them back ten folds for trying to take my life as well as yours." Alex said as they could see the men running towards them.

Looking back at Alex, they both nodded their heads together at the same time and they also charged forward to meet the men in the centre of the arena.
