我年轻漂亮的继坶4

It was as if Ivan had left an unsettling knot in her heart that she was unwilling to let go of until she defeated him, she was almost at the point of obsession with challenging Ivan.

Of course, Ivan always won every single time that they dueled. It became easier after he discovered Miko\'s abilities and their fight would always end within minutes after it had just started.

During the past three weeks, aside from attending usual training routines and occasionally going to the Nexus chamber, Ivan had poured most of his time into challenging the training room and climbing levels.

But despite his numerous attempts to climb higher up the levels of the training room, he was still stuck at level 27!

He had only managed to clear two levels after level 25 the last time and was currently unable to clear through the 28th level.

Ivan had discovered a harsh truth after clearing the 25th level of the training room and that truth was that all the monster(s) on every single floor above the 25th level were as strong as bosses that usually appeared every five floors before.

What\'s worse was that these monsters were now unreasonably strong and very strange, some would refuse to die even after he chopped or blasted them into pieces; they just kept regenerating!

But this little setback wasn\'t enough to stop Ivan, who craved strength so much; he finally found a reason to push his ability to the extreme and discover new ways to use his cards. This had caused him to almost abandon everything else aside from compulsory training just to spend more time inside the training room.

And this has affected his growth to some point because, for the past three weeks, this was what Ivan\'s profile looked like.

…..

NAME: Ivan Von Charles

Talent Group: Primal         Talent type: Wisher   Talent: Wish card

Talent lv: SS          AP: 29.65%      Rank: TRUE KING

….

He only managed to move from an AP of 29.05% to 29.65%, this showed just how much he had neglected his AP training for clearing levels.

"Eishh! Doesn\'t matter, battle experience is equally experienced" Ivan consoled himself while staring at his AP that hadn\'t improved much for three weeks.

Other Nexulytes might trash him to death if they heard this; others were taking months to increase just this much, but Ivan was this slow because he had been neglecting this part of his training.

Pushing the thoughts out of his mind, Ivan left his room and headed for where he would undergo weapon training with Miss Elora.

Due to his frequent visits to the training room, his use of weapons and battle styles had become so refined that he was now able to match against Miss Elora during their training…as long as she didn\'t use her rank abilities or fight with the intention to kill, of course.

Ivan passed the lobby and ran into Glen who was returning from the cafeteria. The boy now had changed very much compared to three weeks ago; one had to praise the effects of the Nexus chamber.

Ivan had once bothered to watch a duel between Glen and one of the top 10 trainees; he was surprised by the battle prowess of his friend, who always acted…silly.

Although he wasn\'t at Ivan\'s or Ralph\'s level yet after the latter had used the Nexus chamber for first place for three weeks, Glen should now be able to hold his own against Ralph from three weeks ago.

His coordination with his white snake had reached a scary level that they were able to fight as if they were a single entity, this was something that not every trainee could deal with. What\'s more, was that the white snake, which was now the size of a long bus, had the strength of a Mortal King when it fought alone!

Adding Glen, who wasn\'t too weaker than the snake, was just a nightmare for other trainees.

*Hey, Ivan! What a coincidence to meet you; you\'ve been disappearing a lot in the past weeks. Tell me, are you sneaking out to get me a sister-in-law?" Glen immediately called out to Ivan upon seeing him, he wrapped his arms around Ivan\'s neck and whispered into his ears in a mischievous tone.

Ivan\'s face did not change despite Glen\'s teasing, the boy was just speaking beautiful nonsense. Was it possible to go out of the training center unless one was done with training?

" What sister-in-law? I\'m busy in the training room" Ivan replied indifferently.

"Hey hey, don\'t lie to me like that even if you don\'t want to tell the truth. What training room? You\'ve only been able to climb two levels higher for three weeks, and you say you aren\'t hatching a love affair behind your brother\'s back? Even if you are not sneaking out, she must be in the training center too, right? Is it a trainee or an official?" Glen said with bright eyes, looking very thoughtful.

Ivan only looked back at him without saying a word, but his expressionless eyes made Glen realize that Ivan wasn\'t kidding, and he staggered back.

"Are…are you trying to say that even you can\'t climb higher in three weeks? Are the monsters above level 25 so strong?" Glen gasped in shock, he suddenly looked lifeless and exhausted.

Ivan did not know why the boy would have such a reaction, but he decided not to comment; it wasn\'t like Glen could even reach the 25th level, to begin with, so why was he worrying about the monsters at higher levels?

"Where\'s Ralph?" Ivan asked after a while.

"He\'s in the Nexus chamber; I think he\'ll stay there all day," Glen responded after calming down.

Ivan only nodded before excusing himself and saying that he had training; Glen didn\'t hold him up since he had things to do as well.

Arriving at the place where he held his training with Miss Elora, Ivan was surprised to find James there as well.

"What are you doing here?" He asked after greeting him; the latter was the tower master, after all.

James smiled gently at Ivan after hearing the question before replying.

Turned out that he wanted to inform Ivan about a change in his training routine personally. According to him, Elora was to go on a special mission assigned from the Tower and would not be able to stay here and continue teaching him anymore since she would have to leave and would most likely not return to this tower anytime soon.

"So…what\'s going to happen to my training?" Ivan asked as a disappointed frown settled on his face.

" That\'s why I\'m here; I will be in charge of your weapon training," James replied, an expectant look on his face. This way, not only will he be able to monitor this young man\'s talent training, but he\'ll be able to follow with his weapon training as well; this will help him gain a better understanding of this monster.

"Then about our usual training?"

"We\'ll be mixing both"

"Oh, I see" was all Ivan replied before turning to Miss Elora.

"What?" Miss Elora asked when she saw Ivan staring at her, a faint blush shading her face.

"Nothing" Ivan answered before moving towards the weapon rack on the side and picking up two laser guns.

Miss Elora watched him go over to the weapon rack, her cold face flashed with a helpless and unwilling expression for a second.

After teaching this student of hers who wasn\'t much younger than herself, Elora was unaware of the feelings she had been developing and was now suddenly feeling so empty that she had to leave.

\'I don\'t even understand why I\'m feeling this way\' She thought to herself while staring at Ivan\'s back.

Shaking her head, she turned to look at her father, James.

"I\'ll be leaving now," she said before moving towards the door.

James nodded with a small smile, he muttered to her as she walked past him.

"You\'ll see him again"

Elora paused but only for a second and resumed walking without looking back.

James turned to look at Ivan after Elora left.

"Now that we are alone, why don\'t we start?" James said and suddenly disappeared.

Ivan\'s face turned serious immediately, he turned to the left and fired two rapid shots of lasers while jumping back.

Dong! Dong!

James appeared exactly where Ivan had fired at, he summoned Nexus energy and easily blocked the two beams that had been fired at him.

"Not bad; I didn\'t use even 10% of my strength, but it seems like I\'ll have to do more if I want to be of use." James grinned before disappearing once again.

The entire room was soon covered in rays of laser beams as Ivan tried to aim at James\' figure.

Meanwhile, in the Nexus chamber underground.

"Finally!"

An excited voice burst out as two pairs of shining brown eyes opened behind a pair of glasses.

He was finally a Mortal King rank Nexulyte!
