Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman

Chapter 54 The Winner Of The Graduation Tournament!



Rex achieved a legendary feat that not even himself ever thought possible!

The first time that Rex entered the world of his mind was when he fought against the mystic pig. Then, it was detrimental, almost resulting in his death, and was why he dreaded this strange occurrence happening again.

The next time that he entered the world of his mind was in his dream.

In his dream, Rex saw himself on a bloody battlefield where he saw an older version of himself. He wasn't sure if that was his future self, but the resemblance was uncanny, and his intuition told him that the dangerous figure was him.

He didn't understand exactly what the dream meant and what connection it had with what happened when he fought against the mystic pig.

This had always been a concern that nagged at him as he contested in the graduation tournament, and here in the finals, it happened again.

At first, on seeing it happen again, Rex despaired, thinking that this would be the catalyst that would make him lose but what happened next shocked him.

In the world of his mind, his future self sighed and this sigh affected his current self. It was this sigh that dragged him into the special state of inspiration where he seemed to have achieved nirvana.

After he came out of the world of his mind and closed his eyes, the inspiration that he got revealed a lot of mysteries that he didn't know of before.

No matter how much inspiration a basic mystic warrior got though, he could never create an advanced skill.

Rex never created an advanced skill though, all that he did was comprehend the advanced skill that his future self created through the world of his mind.

Rex had no idea how this was possible; everything was still a mystery to him but he didn't care because he sought strength and he finally got it.

With this strength, Rex believed that he could win the finals of the graduation tournament and he did not hesitate to make use of it.

During the time that he closed his eyes to comprehend the advanced skill, Turan managed to stab him in the abdomen with his Triple Kill Sword but all that didn't matter now since Turan was now in grave danger!

"Self-created Advanced Sword Skill: Nirvana Slash!"

The attack came too fast, and Turan was too close, he could not dodge.

At this moment, Rex seemed to carry the aura of an otherworldly creature as his mystic energy-empowered sword slash came down like it had the power to slash the earth in twain.

The spectators all held their breaths at this moment as the sword came down. By now, they were already too shocked to feel shocked again.

Whoosh!

"I CAN'T LOSE!" Turan roared again.

The determination of both students came to the rescue again as in the nick of time, Turan was able to let go of his sword and try dodging to the left.

He managed to avoid death, but Turan lost his right hand!

"Ahhh!!!"

Turan roared in pain as his eyes became bloodshot, he gritted his teeth to suppress the pain as his fierce determination to not lose rose again like a Dragon who was determined to protect her eggs.

Despite the blood that flowed like a fountain from his right hand, Turan's blood-shot eyes shone like lanterns as the veins in his face moved like worms.

Whoosh!

Rex's Berserker came slashing again for the killing blow but Turan managed to duck and roll backward despite his bleeding arm and his hopeless situation.

Having lost his sword, this battle was out of his control already and his only hope of winning was to try flipping the chess board to make the game even again and this was exactly what Turan did.

"I CAN'T LOSE!"

Turan roared before exploding with speed towards Rex again to try tackling him down. Rex looked on calmly as he raised his sword for another mighty slash.

"Self-created Advanced Sword Skill: Nirvana Slash!"

Rex was not about to take any chances, he respected Turan too much to do that, he intended to end this battle without any fanfare now that he had the chance, and unleashing his strongest skill was the best way to go about this.

Before he could finish channeling his remaining mystic energy to empower the skill though, Rex's concentration wavered…, the world of his mind struck again!

"No…!" Rex could barely shout before he lost concentration.

Bam!

Before he could regain his concentration, Turan already arrived before him as he dived at him with his lone hand and tackled him to the ground.

With blood-shot eyes stimulated by desperation, on finding out that he could not fight effectively due to his lost right arm, Turan's brain worked at the speed of a computer as he improvised instantly.

Turan opened his teeth and ruthlessly bit on Rex's arm.

Rex tried to retaliate but the world of his mind struck again!

Bam!

Turan elbowed Rex with his lone hand and with this, Rex finally lost grip on his mystic sword. Berserker fell on the arena without being able to help.

On seeing Rex in a state like he was struggling against himself, Turan was confused but the desperation in him to win was too strong for him to care about his opponent as he rolled on the floor towards his sword the next moment.

Once he grabbed his Triple Kill Sword, Turan jumped back towards his opponent, putting his all in for a last desperate stab.

Rex's mind screwed him completely, when he opened his eyes, the tip of the sword was already before his face, he was helpless.

This time, there was no breakthrough out of the blue to help him out.

Just a moment before the tip of the sword pierced Rex's head, the watching intermediate mystic warrior who was assigned to the finals finally intervened and rescued Rex, the winner was already decided!

Unlike what was expected after a final battle, the spectator stands were as silent as a graveyard as the spectators struggled to comprehend exactly what just happened. Their emotions were still on cloud 9 without any signs of coming down.

The commentator was the one who recovered from his astonishment first.

"And we finally have our winner after an unforgettable spectacle of genius mystic warriors that would probably remain in our minds forever".

"This is a final battle that is iconic enough to go in the records!"

"The winner of the graduation tournament 508 A.M is Turan Elliot!"

This was when the spectators finally reacted as they exploded, roaring, cheering, and applauding no one, in particular, all for this unforgettable spectacle.

While the spectators roared, an exhausted Turan collapsed on the arena. Tears mixed with blood flowed from his eyes as he finally fulfilled his dream.

While Turan rejoiced, Rex was in agony. His eyes teared up on their own volition as he looked back to how close he came to winning, Rex fainted.

While celebrations that marked the end of the graduation tournament started, taking Obedin City by storm as Turan Elliot, the hero was celebrated, Turan and Rex were rushed to the academy hospitals for emergency treatment.

The battle was legendary, but it came at the cost of the 2 contestants as they came out of the finals battered and shattered.

All visitors were restricted as the 2 students received treatments. 2 hours later, the treatment finally ended and both students survived.

Just 2 minutes after the Doctors left the hospital room though, insisting that the patients be given time to recover, Rex sneaked out of the hospital.

At this moment, Rex was in an extremely unstable emotional state of mind. He was angry, frustrated, depressed, and disappointed all at the same time.

At this moment, he wanted to rediscover his purpose for living because he seemed to have lost it.

Once Rex sneaked out of the hospital, he started a sprint despite his aching body as he intended to either let off some steam or just collapse again.

He didn't have a direction in mind, he just sprinted out of the city into the woods where there were as few humans as possible.

On the way, a few people recognized him as Rex who just fought in the final battle but he stopped for no one until he got deep inside the woods.

Deep in the woods, Rex let off his frustration as he started punching trees randomly. Tears flowed down his eyes as he did this, but just 3 minutes after he started doing this, Rex's intuition warned him of danger!

After unlocking his sword domain, his danger senses became sharper.

Whoosh!

Rex jumped back swiftly, barely dodging the dagger that almost pinned him to a tree as he turned only to see a group of unanticipated guests.

Rex saw a group of 15 black-clad warriors all with long broad swords tied to their backs. They had a black hood and a mask on, Rex could not recognize them but their motive for being here was as clear as day to him.

The one who seemed to be their leader raised his head a bit and spoke. "Feels nice to unlock a sword domain, right?"
