I lost my Copy System and awakened a Plundering System - Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Familiar Aura: Copy Talent

“I will spare your life for now. Be prepared to die during the contest,” Draco said coldly, releasing Damien.

Damien’s eyes blazed with fury.

“How dare you!” the middle-aged elder roared. This was a great slap to his face—Draco dared to harm someone he was protecting, right in front of him.

If he didn’t handle this, he might lose his reputation, and his fellow elders would ridicule him for letting a young man disgrace him.

He glared at Draco in anger and prepared to conjure an attack. Draco sensed this. While he could defeat the elder, the issue was that he didn’t want to reveal his full strength, which was why he had left Damien alive.

“You should stop and let the younger generation handle their own matters,” Tera’s voice echoed in the air. The attack the middle-aged elder was preparing was forcefully dissipated.

The elder turned to Tera, recognizing his identity. “Does the Vice Chancellor of the Luminari Academy intend to interfere in the affairs of my Royal Academy?”

“Yes,” Tera replied with a chuckle. “He is one of my academy’s students, and it is my duty to protect him. Besides, he didn’t kill anyone—just a few bruises, which are normal among the younger generation.”

The elder’s expression turned grim. He had no confidence in fighting Tera, let alone defeating him. “I hope your academy doesn’t regret this,” he said with a snort.

Boom!

The middle-aged elder suddenly found himself flying, coughing up a mouthful of blood. He looked at Tera in fear.

“How dare a minor elder like you speak to me in that tone? What do you plan to do against the Luminari Academy?” Tera asked coldly.

The elder remained silent, knowing that a single misstep could lead to his destruction. Even so, his heart burned with anger and malice.

Draco released Damien, who glared at him with rage-filled eyes.

“I’ll make sure I kill you and skin you alive!” Damien roared.

Draco chuckled, “I’m waiting.” He turned to Damien, locking eyes with him, and Damien involuntarily shivered. Without another word, Draco turned and walked away.

Draco suppressed his killing intent as he left. Although he was furious, he knew it wasn’t the right time to kill Damien. The young men who had followed Damien also watched Draco’s retreating figure with anger.

They, too, had been humiliated, knocked down by Draco. Revenge during the contest became their sole focus, and Damien shared this determination.

Eventually, everyone—including the middle-aged elder—left the area. They had all lost face, both individually and for their academy.

The girls sighed in relief, thankful that nothing more serious had occurred. However, they were baffled by Draco’s monstrous killing intent and the grudge he seemed to hold against Damien.

Tera observed in silence. He didn’t question Draco as they left the scene.

The crowd that had gathered watched in astonishment. They couldn’t believe Draco’s audacity in wounding and humiliating the young master of a main clan—especially in front of an elder from the Royal Academy.

They speculated that the contest would be unforgettable.

“It seems this contest will be entertaining,” Dive chuckled as he led the Wave Academy students away.

The Luminari Academy moved to a designated area where they would stay for the duration of the contest.

The accommodations were impressive, reflecting the Luminari Academy’s status as one of the top five. It seemed the Royal Academy wasn’t completely unfair, as they treated other academies decently.

As they settled in, Draco excused himself, telling the girls he wanted to be alone.

The girls watched him leave, sighing. They couldn’t help but wonder what kind of grudge Draco had against Damien.

As Draco entered his assigned room, he sat down.

“I never thought you would be lucky enough to meet one of the preparators, and it turned out to be her brother,” Xylara’s voice rang out.

Draco sighed, hearing this. Others might be confused as to why he was so enraged with killing intent, wanting to eliminate Damien.

He felt a familiar aura on Damien, as if something that belonged to him was on Damien. His Copy Talent—he sensed it on Damien. This was what made Draco’s killing intent spike.

He had finally found his talent and the people responsible for it, and he could complete the mission. He could begin to think, ruminating on what was happening—how was it that Rose’s brother had his talent? He would never mistake it.

From the stories Blum and Ming used to tell him, he was close to their family. Even her brother had welcomed him during their competition.

Then Draco caught onto something. On Rose’s body, she had an item used to control her, and for the person who plotted this, it was her father.

He then remembered when Rose knocked him unconscious in Drymin Forest. Her father had used her to knock him unconscious.

He began to connect the dots. Her father must have been greedy for his talent, sending those people to kidnap him, then extracting his talent and giving it to his son.

But Draco felt there was more to this. He remembered that he and Rose had been lovers before this accident. Since he was going to be their future in-law, not enemy, why did her father do this?

“Anyhow, no matter what the reason, they are my enemies now,” Draco muttered angrily.

The news of what happened and what Draco did to Damien spread all over the Royal Academy. All the academies that attended this competition were surprised by this. The young contestants couldn’t wait to battle Draco.

Some even said he was arrogant, and they were going to discipline him not to be too proud.

In another room.

“How dare he!” Damien’s face was full of maliciousness as he roared. He had never felt so humiliated in his life. He clenched his fist, eager to lay his hands on Draco.

“Young master, calm down. You mustn’t lose your composure. The contest is nigh, and you can do whatever you want to him during that moment,” the middle-aged elder who was beside Damien tried to calm him down.

It turned out the elder was also from the Everett Clan. This was also why he felt so angry but helpless at Tera’s words. Their young master’s reputation was tarnished, and an unknown man dared to force his head to the ground.

What impudence!

Damien calmed down after hearing the elder’s words. He then began to think of how he had offended Draco, causing him to want to kill him so badly.

“Elder, I would like you to investigate this young man,” Damien cupped his fists, and the elder agreed.

In another place, an unknown group of people stood together.

“That kid dares to come for the contest, as we guessed.”

“Hmph, we must eliminate him in this contest. Our reputation mustn’t be tarnished.”

“What about Tera?”

“Hmph, who would know that we killed him?”

“Let’s send Fian to fight him.”

“Is the kid worth it? Fian is our number one genius.”

“This is to prevent any shortcomings. The reputation of our Flynn Family mustn’t be tarnished.”
