Bloodline of Gods: The Genius at Olympus Academy!

Oliver's face went pale as a look of despair flashed in his eyes.

"Shit! Shit! It's actually a rank 2 divine beast. How could this happen? I scanned the records, and it assured me that there was only a rank 1 divine beast here. A rank 2 divine beast should only appear at the top of the mountain!"

Oliver felt endless despair.

Don't look at the difference of one rank and underestimate it; for the normal man, the difference between rank 1 and rank 2 was like the difference between gods and mortals, completely insurmountable.

Oliver was scared, but if it was just facing a rank 2 divine beast, he could still grit his teeth and face his death like a man.

What truly made him despair was not the death of himself, but instead the death of the two friends he had brought along with him.

He was neither as talented nor as skilled as them, but he thought that with his cleverness and planning, he could help them advance their strength.

Yet despite his efforts, despite his countless nights planning and scouring through the records,

all that effort not only failed to bear fruit but even betrayed him in the end.

He had killed the friends he wanted to help with his own plan, with his own two hands.

Oliver looked down at his hands and trembled.

Is this it?

Self-loathing and hatred bubbled deep within Oliver, rolling in like an endless dark wave, clouding not only his vision but even his mind.

Fuck! I'm so useless! Because of me… because of me.

Slap!

As Oliver's mind was beginning to turn to shambles, a loud, crisp slap echoed.

"Goddamn it, Aiden! You actually hit me! Instead of doing something so useless, leave behind and realistic and run. It's my fault, so I'll buy as much time as I can."

"Idiot?! Instead of sacrificing yourself, we're all going to escape from here!"

Raelia growled, her silver light flashing from her eyes. "I get it; it's a rank 2 divine beast, but can't we kill it if we try?"

Aiden looked at this beautiful wolf girl and suddenly felt like hitting her.

"Look at this thing! Are you fucking crazy?! We won't last minutes in a fight. We have to run. Now!"

As soon as those words left Aiden's mouth, his face contorted into an ugly grimace as he pulled all the divinity into his fist and punched out.

[Daybreak Fist]

The tail of the Serpent Emperor swung out like a cataclysmic whip, exploding against Aiden's fist in a dazzling beam.

Aiden had managed to block the attack and save his companions, but his arm made an unhealthy cracking sound as he was swatted away as fast as a bullet.

Oliver and Raelia's faces changed from hurt to anger as they glared at the Soul Serpent Emperor with hatred.

Raelia's hair whistled through the air crazily as she rapidly transformed into a dazzling silver werewolf.

"You crazy snake! I'll fucking kill you!"

Her beast-like nature was fully revealed as she charged fearlessly at the gaunt serpent and slashed.

Sparks flew as her claws scraped against the monster's scales, like metal crashing against each other. Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

But the giant serpent didn't even react and only looked down at Raelia with an almost mocking gaze.

Raelia didn't care and kept up from the ground, crashing the earth beneath her,

and shot towards the monster's giant serpentine eye with her claws glowing in a lethal silver light.

Seeing this, the Serpent Emperor's expression finally changed as cruel light flashed within its massive green eyes.

It opened its jaws wide, and evil green energy started to swirl and form inside it.

Before Raelia got too close, a small ball of dark green energy expanded into a giant beam and shot out.

Boom!

Raelia's painful screech could be heard as her beautiful silver fur was singed, and she was sent crashing into the mountain.

The Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor looked down on Raelia, the mocking light in its eyes calmly returning.

Divine beasts of rank 2 were extremely intelligent. Some beasts were even capable of speaking the human language, so it wasn't strange for a beast to take pleasure in hunting humans.

The monster in front of them was obviously a type of that kind.

It had been slumbering, waiting for the Netherspring Lotus to fully mature so it could advance further along the ranks as a rank 2 divine beast, but it woke up to find its lotus stolen.

Fortunately, these three pests contained a high amount of divinity, and consuming them should have an even greater effect than taking the Netherspring Lotus as an elixir.

But since it had been asleep for so long, it couldn't help but toy with its prey.

Unfurled, even though it was still young, it seemed it had taken things too far, and things had ended rather quickly.

The Weeping Soul Serpent looked at Raelia's fallen body and slithered toward her with a malicious look in its eyes when suddenly, a bright flaming explosion erupted and blinded the side of its face.

The weeping soul serpent King was relatively unfazed by the attack only suffering some light bruising. But the attack definitely drew his attention and now it was completely pissed off

The Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor glared at Oliver but Oliver didn't seem to be fazed and glared right back with an greater level of hatred and ferocity

He had told his friends to trust him and had brought him here but now all it did was lead to their injury and near death

Oliver hated himself for causing such a tragic situation for his friends but even more than his elf loathing was his endless hatred for this vicious beats

It had seen it mockingly attack and dominate Raelia and held no fear and fired one of his strongest attacks towards it.

Even if it was certain he would face death doing so Oliver was furious enough to do the same thing countless more times
