"Yes, I am.

" Dayus nodded with conviction and turned to Sam with a smile.

nSam raised an eyebrow at this. Dayus and White backed down. White went to his teammates and they left the mountain. Dayus looked at the rest of the people and said.

n

"If any one wants, they can try and take the treasure.

" He also dove off the mountain.

nSam kind of expected this reaction and his smile widened.

n

"Well played, Dayus.

"

nHe muttered and…

n*SNAP*

nHe snapped his fingers. Dayus didnt even leave the vicinity and he cleared heard the sound of the finger snap. Even before he turned to take a look, he sensed massive energy fluctuations. A battle has began and everyone was attacking everyone.

nAll hell broke loose. They didnt understand why Sam's friends made a move all of a sudden. And its not just his friends, Sam also made his move against them. Of course, they didn't take it lying down, they fought back.

nDayus hurriedly turned around to take a look.

nTo his shock, Philip flew in the air with severe injuries. He flew past Dayus while bleeding through his mouth.

nAfter some other people followed, he saw Watt being dropped down the mountain, while two other Sam's friends ran to save him.

n

"Fuck, its flaming skulls.

"

nParas who was running after Watt yelled out loud.

nDayus widened his eyes. Now he hesitated with going along with his plan. Flaming skulls are definitely strong people in his opinion and since they were attacking Sam, this could be an opportunity. He stayed back just in case.

nEven though Sam's friends disappeared from the mountain, Sam was still there, he knocked the hell out of a lot of people, even though he was injured a bit because of the suddent attack.

nHowever, in the middle of it all, a young man kept on attacking Sam. He is strong. In fact, way too strong to be hidden so long under the wraps within the Academy realm.

nHe knocked the most people from the mountain and it looked like Philip and Sam's other friends were also knocked out by him.

nThis surprised Dayus.

n

"Who the ** is he?

"

nHe muttered.

nAnd he also noticed that he is not going all out against Sam. He is attacking him, but its like he was just keeping him busy.

nDayus looked at the timer and frowned.

nThere isn't much time left for the inheritance to come and it would be sam's to claim.

nAs soon as his thoughts landed here, realization dawned on his mind.

n

"Fuck

"

nHe cursed and dashed forward.

n*BOOM*

nThe young man threw a palm strike. The energy conjured into a huge palm shape and slapped Dayus in the face.

nHe blocked the strike with his spear and dashed forward.

nSam was about to make a move, but at this moment…

n*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*

nMassive explosions hit the mountain from all sides stopping Dayus' advance. He turned around to see a few people wearing Flaming Skulls' uniforms.

n*DING*

nA bell sound rang and the inscription circle shout out brightly. An orange colored beam of light converged at its center and covered Sam completely. Sam felt the sudden influx of energy that simulated his vitality. It was trying to heal all of his injuries.

nAt the same time, he felt a sphere, conjure in his hands.

nFrom this moment on, the legacy inheritance belongs to you. It is up to you to do whatever you want. I hope my divinity will be passed along for the next generations and help raise a worthy person to the glory.

nThose words rung inside Sam's mind.

nThe light beam disappeared and Sam stood there in the middle with the legacy inheritance in his hands.

n*BAM*

nDayus didnt wait anymore. He kicked the ground and shot out. Lightning fusion activated and he tried to deal with Sam in a single decisive strike. Sam was prepared though. Silver lightning covered his body as he raised his leg and kicked forward in the air.

n*BOOM*

nWith an explosive sound, a recoil hit laced with the Lightning energy was shot out. Dayus felt the horse hitting him and he launched his spear in the last moment.

nSam who used the recoil force to move away, suddenly got hit by the spear in his chest.

nDayus fell far away from the mountain and so did Sam.

nHowever, the three people in flaming skulls uniform along with the unknown young man who made short work of everyone launched themselves towards Sam.

n*CRASH* *BOOM*

nDayus landed in the ground, creating a huge crater. He hurriedly stood up and zoomed to the top of the mountain once again.

nThere is nothing there, nothing left. He ran to the other side trying to find where Sam could have fallen.

nAfter five minutes, he saw the unknown young man stand along with other flaming skulls people. The orb is no longer in Sam's hands. It is in the young man's hands instead. He couldnt comprehend how it could be possible.

nAs far as he could remember, Sam was always the strongest among the bunch. He didn't bow out to anything and anyone. He was completely in control of the situation and he can escape the worst of the situations. Four people at the same realm? That wouldnt even scratch the top twenty five of the list of things that could make Sam yield.

nHowever, he saw something that could definitely reach top five in the list.

nThe three men were holding unconscious Philip in his hands.

n

"What the **.

" He cursed under his breath.

nSam gave the orb and they threw Philip at Sam.

nDayus thought, Sam would be pursuing them, now that his friend is already in his hands. But instead, Sam laid Philip down on the ground and started treating.

n

"Fucking hell.

"

nDayus cursed out and pursued the four.

nHowever, the four of them seemed to have anticipated this.

n

"Think twice before you do it.

"

nFor some reason, Dayus sensed enormous threat from the four and he hesitated for one moment. That was all it took for them to leave. After some thought, dayus ran back to White's position. It was a bit far away.

nHe met with him and the teammates and said.

n

"Change of the plans. Sam didn't have the treasure. The flaming skulls has it. Their group is within the pocket dimension. We need to capture them.

"

nDayus was in a hurry and the team started their search.

nAt the same time, the leaderboards started changing. All of a sudden, most of Sam's friends started quitting, freezing their star count.

nDayus only glanced at it, but didn't care that much.

nLegacy inheritance is way too important.

nWhen he thought of how he hesitated not making a move against the four, he wanted to bash his head to a rock and kill himself.

nWhy would he do that?

nHe doesn't know. Even if some speculations are forming inside his head, he doesn't want to encourage them, because, just the thought of them beng true made his crazy with anger.

n

"What the ** happened to me?

"

nHe mumbled to himself as they searched.

nAfter some time, white stopped and said.

n

"There is no point. They must have left the pocket dimension. Judging by your reaction, the value of that treasure must be pretty high. So, there is no way, they will stay back after getting it.

"

nDayus knew there is some truth to that speculation. He just didnt want to admit it being true.

nAt that time, they saw another change in the leaderboard.

nSam's name.

nIt was on the top for a while, but the number is increasing at a rapid rate.

nEach change showed a difference of around a few dozen stars.

n

"This bastard must have gone on a rampage. Berserk bastard.

"

nDayus mumbled to himself.

nEven he wanted to go on a rampage for a moment. He lost way too much in this pocket dimension. But the most terrifying of all is that not just Sam, but someone other entity, an entity that he swore to capture has known about the most secretive information he had in his possession.

nExcept for the dean, nobody should have known about it. Dayus didn't discuss it with anyone else. But Sam knew and so did the flaming skulls, at least that is what it looked like.

n

"Fourteen days.

"

nDayus said out loud.

nWhite looked at him in askance.

n

"We have that much time to destroy flaming skulls and retrieve our treasure. Even one minute after fourteen days and we will lose it permanently.

"

nWhite had some questions, but he held it back.

nThe third day went on after that major event.

nThe news of some secret treasure and its usage spread to all the participants. When the third day was completed, the rankings froze and everyone was transported to an empty grey space.

nAll the previously eliminated candidates, their deadbodies and people who quite were all there.

nThat's right.

nUntil all three days are over, they cannot just leave and go out.

nThat means, the previous candidates that were eliminated and quit had some time to talk among themselves.

n
