Since he didn't have much time left and was planning to mostly use beast weapon all through the exploration duration time, Bernard kept fighting his opponent with the twin daggers beast weapons that way not only would he not need to use his bloodlines abilities or skills, he would also not appear suspicious to them, even if he leveled up several times.
However, that wasn't he had in mind ever since he got the beast weapon he had always gotten a bonus when it came to attacking his opponent, this was what he was timing to perfect it or look for a way to see if he could increase the amount of attack he could get when wielding it.
So far everything attempt at it was useless, not because he wasn't putting in the necessary effort but because the only to suddenly increase the attack bonus beyond the creator's capability was through self destruction.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis meant after going beyond the limit which would last for at most one minute, the beast weapon would self destruct itself for surpassingly it's limit.
Bernard had no idea if such effect was only for the twin dagger, or if it was also for other beast weapons as well.
At this moment even though his bracelet was showing rank 1 many were still thought he had the strength to fight a rank 4 symbiote user, attributing it to the beast weapon he was using and his unique perception sense, however even with that many still thought he could still lose if he was an ambush by a bunch of rank 3 and could be killed by a rank 4, simply because a rank 1 symbiote user healing physique would be way too slow to heal themselves when they were injured, since it would be difficult to avoid anything like injuries when fighting.
This was the reason why Sophia had volunteered to protect him, so the only thing Bernard could do at this moment was farm enough experience points to level up several times in order to get much stronger, and if they asked him what he had been doing he would simply say he had been training inside Rebirth to grow his mastery of beast weapon and perception sense.
Eventually, twenty minutes were over, and although throughout the fight he was using his daggers he was still able to finish most of his opponent effortlessly since he literally just needed to cast blood judgment on them and they would be on the ground, this meant at most he spent two minutes killing one person since no one was strong enough to pose any challenge, it was merely like a walk in the park to him.
After twenty minutes had stopped, Bernard had stopped not because he didn't want to continue but because, he was already growing tired of doing the same thing over and over again that he felt like he was bullying his opponents, the only thing that had been able to cheer him up was the fact he could see his experience was quickly shooting up, at this moment as he turned around that's was when he spotted someone, when he did he couldn't help but remember this person's strange bloodline ability.
While he was wondering why the girl was spectating his match and how she could do it, he suddenly saw her waved her hands at him with a sweet smile on her expression, Bernard couldn't help but raise his brow if he hadn't known any better he would simply have thought they were best of old friends, that haven't seen themselves in a while.
'How long has she been watching me? Was it before I used my main symbiote bloodline or after I started using it?"Bernard thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe would have loved to ask her, but then he didn't know who she was she could be a friend or a foe, from this she could either tell him the truth or lie to him as well, nevertheless, he decided against it, although he didn't like the fact she was spectating his matches, as long as she didn't notice anything strange then he doesn't really care.
Just then as he was about to ignore her, a thought suddenly came to his mind although he didn't like her spectating his match, he realize she could be put to good use, so he raised his head and couldn't help but wave back that like she did, as Amaka saw this she had a look of surprise on her expression as she thought Bernard seem a little more friendly than she thought he would be, at this moment a bright blue screen appeared before her after going through it she noticed he had sent her an invite.
When she saw this she couldn't help but become even more surprised, her initial intention was just to watch his matches and observe his bloodline abilities, to figure out a countermeasure just in case they met in the future and he didn't recognize her, besides that she also wanted to study him for the sake of her younger sister just to show her Blood_Of_Damocles wasn't that scary, considering that after her younger sister lost to him she seemed to hate his name and had grown a little fear for him.
So when she saw the invite she couldn't help but be surprised, she also found it suspicious but then it was not like he could do anything to her anyways since the game system did not allow for a person to challenge multiple people at once, nevertheless there was still a feature one could use when a person was already on their friend list, this feature was mostly used by students who had added themselves as friends on Rebirth or friends, who simply wanted chat and practice.
In the end, she didn't need to think too much what's more her curiosity had gotten the best of her, so she wanted to know the reason he had sent her the invite considering they weren't friends or students who knew themselves from the same thing academy, so she immediately accepted as she saw the invite appear before her line of sight.
