As Quinn walked up to the stage he noticed that Brandon, his opponent’s indicator showed that he was at the power level of three. If this was a fight in the outside world, where they both could use their abilities Quinn felt like he didn’t have much chance of winning.
But here in the arena, where abilities weren’t allowed. Quinn had a body stronger than most, his speed was faster than most. In the Novels he had read, a Vampires strength was far greater than the human race before the introduction of abilities. If they wanted to, they could have ruled the world.
Brandon held a large spear in hand which had great reach. The end was sharp with a single curved blade at the end.
\u003c Opponent power level 3\u003e

It seemed like Quinn’s day was only getting better.
"Begin!" Leo shouted.
Brandon immediately charged in with his spear, while Quinn stood there and took a fighting stance with both of his hands held out in front of him. When Brandon was within striking distance, he thrust his spear forward. It was fast and impressive to the people watching outside.
But to Quinn who had 12 points in agility, it was easy for him to dodge. He avoided the spear strike and ducked down, then before Brandon could pull the spear back Quinn went and grabbed the spear with his hand.
"What the hell!" Brandon said as he tried pulling the spear back. "Let go!"
While holding the spear with one hand, Quinn opened up his other hand and swung out his fist like a claw as hard as he could at the spear. Then a few moments later the spear had been sliced in half.
"What the, my weapon, it’s faulty!" Brandon complained but Leo did nothing to step in.
Quinn rushed forward and before Brandon could do anything, Quinn punched him hard in the stomach. Brandon’s feet lifted off the ground and it looked like his body was about to fly away.
"Inspect"

\u003c Ability: Elemental \u003e
\u003c HP 5/15 \u003e

Quinn knew that if Brandon was to fly out of the arena it would be considered his win but the system wouldn’t allow him to win like that, he needed to beat his opponent down to at least one HP. So before Brandon could be lifted into the air, Quinn grabbed him and pulled him back down and at the same time kneed him in the face causing Brandon’s nose to bleed and his head to be sent backwords.
And finally, Brandon collapsed lying there on the ground.
"Winner, Quinn Talen." Leo said.

"You fool, will you stop being so disrespectful to the teacher." Erin said, "Do you not know who he Is, Perhaps if I told you his war name you would know. This man is General Leo, or known as the Blind swordsman."
The chatting between the students had gotten even louder. The name Blind swordsman was known well between common folk. He had helped out a great deal when fighting against the Dalki.
"He’s blind?" Loop said unsure whether it was true or not. "Doesn’t that mean he definitely couldn’t tell if the person used an ability or not."
In that instant, Leo threw a piece of the broken spear in the direction of Loop. The spear just missed Loop and had hit the back wall.
Loop then started to feel a sharp stinging pain on his cheek, as he touched his cheek he noticed a scratch mark.
"I can see, and hear very well. Better than most of you. My ability allows me to see the Aura of people and when people start to use their ability, their aura’s change depending on what ability they are using. And I’m telling you now, Quinn didn’t use a single ability."
With that, the students startled to settle down a bit. It was a memorable first day for all the students in the weapon club so much had happened. But the class was finally over and it was time for them to head home.
Leo, however, couldn’t stop thinking about the student known as Quinn. He inspected the spear again and again and found nothing out of the ordinary. However, what Leo didn’t reveal was form the very beginning when Quinn had stepped into the room, he could see his aura was slightly different from everyone else’s.
It wasn’t the same as when someone used an ability though, it reminded him of an aura of that of the beasts or the Dalki had, one that wasn’t human.
"Pull up the file on Quinn Talen for me."
"File found." Leo’s watch replied.
"Ability?"
"No ability, power level 1." The watch said again.
"Hmm, just what are you hiding Quinn?"
