n15 minutes before the race started…

n“Anon,” Letti strode purposefully towards Anon’s seat at the back of the library, her eyes filled with urgency.

n“Yes…?” Anon looked up, his curiosity piqued.

n“There has been a significant change in the race track,” Letti spoke, her voice tinged with concern.

n“What kind of change?” Anon asked, his brow furrowing in confusion.

n“Take a look at this.” Letti unfolded the map of the kingdom, revealing intricate paths and landmarks.

nAnon examined the map, his gaze fixated on the familiar depiction. “It’s the same map. What’s the problem here?” he inquired.

nLetti’s finger traced a route, leading to three mountains standing side by side. “Look here,” she pointed, her voice laced with apprehension.

nAnon’s eyes followed her finger, and he raised an eyebrow. “Alright, what about them?” he questioned, trying to decipher Letti’s unease.

n“In every kingdom, the racers are required to overcome three hurdles: a sea, a desert, and a forest. But this time, the track has undergone a drastic change. An additional hurdle has been added,” Letti explained, her voice betraying a hint of anxiety.

nCuriosity sparked within Anon. “What is this new hurdle?” he probed, his mind already churning with possibilities.

n“You see these three mountains? One of the middle mountains vanished mysteriously two weeks ago, leaving behind a perilous valley. The once-solid ground has been replaced by treacherous terrain filled with colossal rocks and towering trees. That’s the new obstacle you’ll have to pass through. To make matters more worse, your first competitor will be Luna Warwood, a werewolf with an inherent advantage over you, Fuck that director.” Letti revealed, her worry etched on her face.

nAnon’s eyes widened momentarily, a flicker of recognition passing through his mind. ‘Hmm…? Ah, now I remember. I was wondering why these mountains looked familiar. Turns out, this is the very mountain that I blowed up during my first railgun test,’ he recalled in his mind.

nHe gazed at the map, his expression shifting to one of determination. “Don’t worry, Luv. I have a plan,” he assured her, a confident smile playing on his lips.

nLetti’s surprise was evident as she looked at him in disbelief. “You already have a plan?” she asked, astonished.

nAnon nodded calmly. “Yes,” he replied, his voice filled with conviction.

n“Are you **ing with me ? I just informed you about this change. How could you possibly think of a plan in such a short time?” Letti inquired, her curiosity piqued.

nAnon’s gaze softened as he offered an explanation. “I simply kept my mind calm, allowing the ideas to flow naturally. Sometimes, the solutions reveal themselves when we let go of the chaos and trust in our instincts,” he revealed, a hint of wisdom in his words.

n‘WTF ? Why is he talking like that ?’ Letti thought to herself.

nBack to the present…

n“Landon, what does this crazy kid plan on doing? He shows no signs of slowing down, let alone stopping. Will he meet his death today?” Seraphina’s voice rang out, a mix of concern and intrigue.

nLandon leaned in closer, his eyes fixed on the screen displaying the unfolding race. “I’m also eager to witness Anon’s next move, Seraphina,” he admitted, a faint smile playing on his lips.

nMeanwhile, Letti’s eyes remained transfixed on the screen before her, filled with a mixture of worry and anticipation. “Anon, what do you plan on doing?” she wondered silently, her heart pounding in her chest.

nSeti couldn’t help but laugh on anon. “Yes, die now, kid,” she muttered, a twisted smile forming on her face.

nInside the Commoner teacher’s room…

n“He’s about to die.” one teacher remarked, their tone filled with faux sympathy.

n“Yes, my deepest condolences to him,” another added, a tinge of sarcasm in their voice. 𝗼𝘃𝗹.𝗼𝐫𝗴

nAmidst the discussion, a female teacher chimed in with admiration, her voice tinged with a hint of infatuation. “What a smart and attractive young lad. It’s a shame he’s fated for doom,” she mused.

n“Yeah, he does have that charm, but ultimately, he’s headed for his death.” another teacher chimed in, their tone resigned.

nOn the mountain…

n“It’s time,” Anon whispered to himself, his maniacal smile transforming into a menacing laughter that echoed through the air.

nShadowsoar Strengthening Shadow Assassin Exclusive Skill S-Rank

nA skill exclusive to the elite shadow assassins, Shadowsoar Strengthening is a formidable technique that taps into the depths of darkness to unleash an unparalleled surge of power. When invoked, the user’s body becomes shrouded in a captivating veil of shadows, a tangible manifestation of their dominance over the realm of darkness.

nWith a surge of commanding will, the shadows answer their beckoning, obediently serving the wielder. In an instant, the user’s strength skyrockets, their muscles coiling with raw potential as they become an unstoppable force. Every movement becomes a testament to their amplified might, each strike resonating with darkened ferocity.

nHowever, this dark empowerment comes at a steep cost. The skill exacts a heavy toll on the user’s mana reserves, draining a staggering 3000 units in a single activation. Such a formidable expenditure places the shadow assassin in a precarious position, as the price of unleashing this extraordinary power leaves them vulnerable once the shadows recede.

nFor a fleeting duration of 10 seconds, the Shadowsoar Strengthening bestows upon its wielder unparalleled strength, commanding the shadows as loyal allies. Yet, the high mana consumption serves as a constant reminder that the embrace of darkness must be wielded judiciously, for even the darkest powers have their limitations.

nSuddenly, the crimson flames engulfing Anon’s body transformed into pitch black, and his muscles doubled in size, pulsating with newfound power.

nHis speed increased exponentially, causing even the noble audience to take notice.

n‘This power is awesome.’ Anon thought, marveling at his bulging muscles, empowered by the shadows.

nWarning: 50% Mana Remaining!!!!

nA large red screen materialized before Anon, a stark reminder of his dwindling mana reserves.

n“I know, I know, just one more time,” Anon declared defiantly, his determination unyielding as he approached the end point of the mountain.

nEveryone fixated their gaze on the screens, bracing themselves for what seemed like an inevitable death, but…
