Luke looked at John with scorn “It was a great speech .I must say you are talented but it is too late . We have already set up a soul barrier around this building so that even if you try to leave this place with your soul form ,you will be captured . Now hand over the object obediently.”

John smiled in response “So it seems like ,you and Carl were already occupied by someone else. No wonder you behaved like that.”

Jaden laughed “Aha..Aha.. at least you know now before your death .”

[Dear user , congratulations you have successfully accumulated all the points required to level up. Initiating level up ,please wait]

John finally heaved a sigh of relief internally . He knew it was still not over .He needed to somehow break the barrier .He was betting on Eva to come up with something when it gets upgraded. He decided to buy as much time as he can in the mean time. He knew it was pointless to deny that he didn’t have the object at that point of time.

John said mockingly “Unfortunately I am unable to give what you want . The microchip is already attached to my soul and it would self destruct ,if you try to forcefully snatch.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up .They finally got a clear affirmation from the person himself . They had 80 to 90% probability but when John admitted himself ,they finally heaved a sigh of relief. But the later part of his words made them anxious.

Jaden’s face suddenly distorted “You are bluffing .Don’t play child tricks ,I have seen all those in my past.”

[Dear user , you have successfully reached Level-8. Congratulations, Please check the reward panel]

John felt like he was in between hell and heaven. He couldn’t enjoy the feeling of leveling up when a bunch of people showing him guns on his face.

“Believe it or not ,it is true .Even if you kill me you won’t get any shit instead you will have to face the fury of sun school .In fact many people from sun school already might be on their way to here. Aha aha”

After saying that John directed his awareness to reward panel

[Reward panel,

Inventory : 14 lottery tickets

Note : User can now safely leave his body just by commanding Eva]

‘Eva do you have any recommendation?’ John knew that intelligence of A.I has increased substantially after leveling up to higher level .

[Dear user, soul barrier is a low class treasure from Devata realm . Although it is not possible to use soul power in lower realm ,it is entirely possible to use treasures .

You have 2 options , one delay the enemies as much as possible till sun school rescue you . Two, use your lottery tickets .If you are lucky you might get the knowledge required to break the barrier. But I must warn you , lottery tickets are very precious .If you use it in Devata realm ,your rewards will be 100 times better ]

Although it might look long conversation but in reality it took a fraction of seconds.

Jaden and the rest started panicking but Dara who was watching everything from the sidelines till now ,stepped out and said calmly “Even if the microchip gets self destructed ,if we kill him the rewards outweigh the loss. Don’t forget that he is the only disciple of supreme being in sun school and proclaimed as next clan leader.

If we kill him before he matures that would be saving countless brothers and sisters of our schools. I am pretty sure our leaders will reward us regardless of microchip if we kill a future threat. Lets kill him and take his head to Devata realm with glory .”

Many people in the pack were moved by what Dara said .Jaden inwardly appreciated Dara’s calmness and critical thinking .

John without any choice commanded Eva to use lottery tickets . Although he knew rewards would be less here in the lower realm, if he lost his life everything would be pointless. As far as waiting for Sun school, it seemed too late at the moment.

‘Eva I will give you full autonomy ,use all the lottery if required till you find something useful . You can stop the lottery wheel whenever you want . All you need to do is inform me if you find something useful .’

[Dear user , I will do my best . Wait for sometime]

John steeled his heart .His brain worked at lightning speed and finally he thought of something

“I don’t know whether to laugh or cry . Are you all idiots? How can you let go of precious treasure like microchip? Can’t you use some technique to get information from me?”

Suddenly everyone’s face contorted including Dara . Jaden replied this time “Stop wasting time. Even if your sun school came now ,what can they do ? We can simply take you as hostage .”

John didn’t give up “If you think I am buying time for them .Be my guest . I really should command your cowardliness. The treasure is right in front of you but you don’t have the balls to take it .”

Everyone felt like they received invisible slap in their face. Their faces turned red . They agreed unconsciously that they were being too cowardly.

Dara smiled “You don’t need to worry ,we are not giving up on the treasure. Initially I thought I should give you painless death but seems like you love getting tortured .Let me use the most cruelest method before sending you off. I know you can simply self destruct and die but I will make sure you don’t die easily and beg me to grant you death.”

[ Congratulation user ,you have won a technique that can help you break the soul barriers . Remaining lottery tickets are 2. Please visit reward panel to check out rewards won]

John didn’t have time to check out his rewards, he directly gave commanded Eva to transfer the knowledge to his brain.

[Dear user ,I must warn you that this technique will inflict immense pain on your soul .Please be prepared]

John smiled in response. He didn’t mind going through some pain. All he worried about was his family, who would suffer from grief if he didn’t not go back alive. He remembered his master’s words that life was not a walk in the park . How could he achieve great things if he can’t even face some uncertainty and pain.

Dara commanded his guards to hold John while taking out a piece of paper and sticking on John’s forehead. He had a cruel smile on his face .Everyone gasped at the sight of paper

Someone shouted “ Isn’t it ,low grade treasure cruel note? Poor fellow seems very unlucky . Once it sticks on someone’s forehead ,he will suffer as if 1000 needles are poking on his brain.”

Suddenly they heard the sound of cars outside the building and realized that sun school has finally arrived. They didn’t panic because it was not Devata realm. No one could use soul power and every one has to depend on mortal weapons.

Sun school people hurriedly went inside the building and were stunned to see John was surrounded by group of people with guns. They garnished their teeth and pointed their gun straight at other schools.

“Young master ,forgive us .We are late .”
