When Jake opened his eyes once again, he was t with a scene that was now sowhat familiar to him. The white ceiling, the sll of chemicals was a dead give away. He was once again lying in a hospital bed and so soon at that.
While opening his eyes, his eyes t with that of soone he was familiar with. It was nurse Hayley, checking on him.
"Oh boy, it looks like you like the clinic a lot. This is the second ti you are being admitted here in a week." Hayley jokingly said.
"Is everything okay with ?" Jake asked sitting up.
"Yes. Your vitals are normal, everything is ok, you are going to be discharged today after you get so rest." Hayley said.
"Why was I even brought here?" Jake asked then he finally started rembering the events of the duel.
"I was told you fell unconscious after your duel. Apparently it was because of fatigue and bleeding." Hayley answered while going back to her seat to complete the formalities of discharging Jake.
After Hayley left, Jake finally rembered that the system had given him a quest to defeat Blade.
"System! Pull the last notifications I received." Jake said.
"Zee, what's a stat point?" Jake asked.
"A stat point is a point you can allocate to any of your attributes like: Strength and all that." Zee answered.
"Ohh ok. I understand now. But where do I allocate this free point to now." Jake thought.
In order to decide, Jake decided to pull up his status screen.
"Wow! This is aweso. I have being given lots of rewards just for completing one quest." Jake exclaid excitedly. "I think for now, I will keep that free stat point till when I really need it because I'm unable to decide where to allocate it now."
Then Jake's mind wandered towards the duel.
Jake sighed. "I can't believe I actually won that duel. I'm still confused how that happened. But it was very difficult. If ranked 180 could give such a tough fight then think about the double digits ranks."
Just as Jake finished his thoughts, his roommates entered to check up on him.
"Hey, my man. How are you doing?" Peter asked coming over.
"I'm feeling better now. Thanks." Jake said.
"For real, you were aweso out there. I couldn't believe my eyes, you actually defeated soone who was ranked 180." Vynn said with stars in his eyes.
"I guess you are not as weak as I thought." Sophia said coldly.
"Too bad, because of your win, I have gone from rank 199 to 200." Vynn said sadly while looking at his watch.
"Am sorry. I didn't intend to fight. But don't worry, am sure soon you will be able to rank up and the we could all get to the top ten together." Jake said trying to cheer Vynn up.
"Yeah, I hope so. Anyway can we take you back to the dorms now?" Vynn asked.
"Yes. You can take him now, he's all better so no need to keep him in the clinic anymore." Hayley answered coming over to their side.
After that, they all left the clinic together while chatting happily and with Peter also bragging about not losing faith in Jake.
While they were going, they saw Blade who in turn glared at Jake.
"You think you have won this right? I know that your win was just pure luck and am gonna make sure you pay dearly for making go down a rank." Blade said while standing in front of Jake's face.
"Hey! Cool it man. Do not start a fight that you can't win right now." Peter said showing his watch to Blade that was displaying the level 7.5 and rank 2.
To which Blade backed off and looked Jake in the eyes while leaving him with one word.
"Watch your back, Jake. I know you are not strong enough to protect yourself and your friends won't always have your back." Blade said walking off.
"He's right you know." Zee said. "You need to get stronger so you don't have to worry about people like him."
"Yeah I know, stop reminding that am weak." Jake said annoyed.
Just as Jake finished saying the word, he heard a ding in his head then he opened up the system to which he saw a ssage.
"Woah! this is amazing." Jake exclaid excitedly in his mind. "Level 3 huh? It's just three days away."
After that, All the friends went to their dorm to relax before they will go to Combat training and Jake was required to co after he was discharged.
When it was ti for combat training, they all went to the training grounds for the class. They did their normal physical exercise and sparring with each other.
And this ti there were no issues, everyone sparred with each other. Jake sparred with the person ranked 179 but he couldn't win the fight because the person was more skilled than Blade.
After a long day of training, everyone retired to their dorms to get so rest.
