Kodak stands above his opponent. The azure shade of kinetic energy radiate across his body as looked at the remaining two students with a serious look.
[Skill: Statistical Overview has activated!]
Kodak then glanced at the person stood below. His eyes glowed a very light blue as he peered at the battered student.

I.R.T: Serrated Edge
[Information of I.R.T is not able to be seen without the user's permission!]
Kodak frowned at the last message.
"Great," he muttered to himself. "seems the skill isn't able to reveal techniques on the same level as me."
Kodak then looked at the other two, seeing the system scanning them.
[You cannot scan more than one target!]
Kodak frowned even more than before. He was beginning to get annoyed by the system's limits.
"Son of a bitch." He grumbled.
He then shifted his gaze at the another students. "What's your names?" He said with a cold stare.
The blonde-haired senior flinched at Kodak's gaze. "Just who the hell is this guy!?" He thought to himself. "He was not only able to counter the crushing, and serrated feeling of Yasei's I.R.T. But he did a counter within our first encounter, but what makes him creepier is this bloodlust I'm feeling."
Chills then shoot through the blonde boy's spine. "It's like I'm facing a rageful warrior!"
Kodak's face then grew impatient. "Answer me dammit!" He yelled in an annoyed tone. "What's your goal?"
The blonde boy then spoke up. "Kinko," He said nervously. "Kinko Haruka."
Kodak's ears then perked up at the surname of Kinko. It was a name Fumiko told him about. His jaw then clenched as his eyes become even more rageful.
"So your that shitty cousin. The one who always beat on her with that damn Azar!"
Memories then flowed into Kodak's mind. One's of finding Fumiko beaten, and wounded. The only thing that really stuck in his mind, was the screams he heard before finding her within that messy beatdown.
Kodak's chest then raised and lowered as he breathed heavily. "Calm down dammit!" He muttered in his head.
But that rage didn't dwindle at all. The anger in Kodak's heart only got more violent. It was like he was fanning his own flames without knowing.
It was different from his rageful out bursts in the past. His revenant might have had something to do with it, but regardless he felt a type of rage towards Kinko that was nothing but pure violence.
The black-haired student in the orange jacket next to Kinko then scoffed at Kodak's rising anger. "How lame!" He said in an overconfident tone. "Forget about him, I'm Arashi. And I'll grind you down to a pulp!"
Suddenly, a blast of a light green energy shot out from Arashi's palm. Kodak's left hand then balled up into a fist, and charged with kinetic energy instantly.
[Innate Skill: Siphoning Charge Activated!]
An azure color than tightened, and reinforced itself around Kodak's entire body. [Innate Skill: Pulsing Aura Activated!]
The back of his fist swatted the energy blast away, and through a nearby wall.
Arashi looked at him in shock. His hand then started to glow green once more, but as he fired the blast.
Kodak's arm then fell limp, deeply surprising him. "What the hell!?" He exclaimed.
Arashi then ran up towards Kodak, delivering a brutal knee reinforced with revenant directly to his stomach.
Kodak coughed hard as his back slammed through the classroom's wall, his body tumbled along the light grey tile floor. His body bashed and rolled through the school, until he flew through a stack of metal chairs.
Kodak held his head in pain as he groaned from his large crash. He then turned to the wall he was just sent through, seeing Arashi and Kinko walking through the debris.
"Don't get cocky just cause you took down our weakest member!" Arashi snapped at Kodak with an overconfident smirk.
Kinko then scoffed at Kodak's beaten, and bruised face. "Damn, and here I thought you got stronger!" He said in a cocky tone. "Seems your just as pitiful as you were a year ago."
Kodak then stood up, feeling the bruises and slight injuries all across his body. His voice groaned as he stood up. But that pain Kodak felt didn't stop him. "My pitifulness... can go straight to hell!" He yelled.
Kodak's voice echoed as he saw his two opponent's looking at him unimpressed. They then began to laugh loudly in disbelief.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Kinko then smugly smirked at Kodak. "DAMN WEAKLING!"
[Innate Technique: Golden Fantasy Activated!]
A golden liquid then floats around Kinko. His mind tenses, and a spear of this golden liquid then solidifies completely.
Kodak's eyes then widen as the spear makes it way closer to his face. His hands shoot up, instantly stopping the spear as Kodak grips it tightly.
Blood then leaks from his palms. Kinko's hands then tighten around the spear's handle. He pushes harder, driving Kodak into a wall as the spear inches closer.
"YOU CAN'T WIN THIS, YOU'RE NOT STRONG ENOUGH!"
Kodak's eyes then glare at Kinko as he felt the strength from his opponent growing stronger.
"He's right," Kodak thought to himself. "and I know it all too well. I just got back into becoming stronger, and showed slight signs of strength and felt a surge of overconfidence. I've been weak all my life so how can I decide that I can be strong!?"
Kodak then feels the floor beneath him cracking. The sounds of the tiles cracked, and groaned as his feet were forcefully pushed deeper into.
Arashi then started chuckling at Kodak. "How sad," he taunted in a mockful tone. "Azar told us who you were after your little exchange in the front of the school's entrance."
Kodak's eyes then widened as Arashi. "Azar!?"
Arashi nodded. "Duh!" He said in an immature tone. "After that fight from today, he explained who you were, your weaknesses, blind spots, and even your powers."
Kodak's jaw then clenched angrily as his grip tightened. "THAT DAMN BASTARD!" He yelled inside his head. "WHEN WILL AZAR FINALLY JUST FUCK RIGHT OFF!"
[Revenant Skill: Echo State activated tenaciously!]
Scars then flashed in a dark blue shade of revenant. The scars were in the shapes of stabbings, burn marks, and a symbol of a dragon showing on Kodak's right hand.
Kinko's spear then completely shattered--catching him by surprise.
"What the fuck!?" He yelled out in shock. "How the hell did you break my spear?!"
Kodak then lunged forward towards Kinko, tackling him harshly to the ground. He then locked his arms around Kinko, trying to choke him out.
But as his grip just started to choke Kinko, a rough elbow then struck him in the stomach--making him let out.
Kinko then got up, chuckling as he looked at his armored golden elbow. It was sharp, dense, and then dissipated into the same golden liquid.
"Almost had me Kawanari," Kinko said smugly. "but close doesn't cut it. Even for someone like you."
Kodak held his side while looking at Kinko. "Think again."
His fingers then snapped loudly. Nothing happened.
Kinko and Arashi then started bursting with laughter. "HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Kodak's face didn't flinch at all though. In fact, he smirked with confidence. "Feel it yet?"
Kinko then stopped laughing. His face tensed in pain as a searing pain then began spreading all across his back. Kinko immediately then felt the pain amplify.
A loud explosion of black and blue smoke then filled the room. Arashi jumped through a window, dodging the explosion as glass shattered as the smoke leaked from the room.
Kodak then smirked while looking at Kinko's unconscious body. "I warned him, but even that was risky move. Despite my hypothesis being correct.
A message then popped up from the system. [New innate skill has been discovered!]
[Innate Skill: Searing Application!]
Description: The user can cause a type of ignition-like effect to their kinetic energy. The damage is vastly greater, however it costs more energy to be used.
Kodak then snapped his fingers, watching as his blue kinetic energy then became a purple pulsing flame. "Whoa," He muttered to himself. "this power. It's amazing!"
But as Kodak looked at his newfound skill, echoes of footsteps raced across the room.
"He's back up even from searing application!?"
Kinko then lunged from the smoke, sending sharp golden tendrils towards Kodak's way. His voice then screamed as he launched the tendrils. "YOU'RE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO BEAT ME!"
Kodak gritted his teeth as he blocked, and dodged the tendrils. They were strong, sturdy, sharp, and most of all--deadly.
Kinko then continued his as he screamed more insults at Kodak. "YOU WERE WEAK BACK THEN, AND YOUR STILL WEAK NOW!"
The back of Kodak's head then harshly bashed against the wall. Dust and debris scattered as he flew back from the tendril's force.
Kodak's eyes then widened as a tendril was headed his way. His legs then dipped low to ground, causing Kodak to bend backwards, and dodge the attack.
A slight sound then swung through the air. Kodak's head darted around, seeing about ten golden tendrils aimed at him. He dodged the first two with his footwork.
[Innate Skill: Searing Application Activated!]
[Searing Application: Pulsing Firepower Selected!]
The next three were then completely destroyed as Kodak's body was completely ignited in purple flames. His head pounded, and his heart pumped oddly. It was loud, and quite unnerving.
Kinko then watched as the nest three golden tendrils were shattered to bits. Shards of golden pieces were flung everywhere across the room. But then Kodak felt a pain he hadn't felt before.
A pain all across his body. HIs eyes then widened as message from the system appeared. A message he didn't think he'd see.
[WARNING: ALL YOUR REVENANT HAS BEEN USED UP!]
[STOP USING REVENANT OR YOU WILL EAT AWAY AT YOUR LIFE ENERGY!]
Kodak was completely defeated. His knees, and arms became painfully weak. And his chest hurt like hell. He had experienced multiple types of physical pain before, but this was different.
It was like the pain was in a whole different plane of existence. Kodak couldn't feel the sharp pain in his leg, and shoulder as Kinko pierced him. Kinko himself was even surprised. He knew that he wanted to harm Kodak, but he didn't want to kill him.
"Shit," He muttered in a worried tone. "you were suppose to dodge asshat!"
Kodak's vision then went black, and he then became completely unconscious.
Kinko and Arashi immediately stopped using their revenant, and rushed over to Kodak. "This wasn't the fucking plan, Kinko!" Arashi yelled furiously.
"No shit asshole!" Kinko snapped back. "I didn't think he was so weak he couldn't keep up his revenant usage!"
Arashi then opened his mouth, only for a strange--yet strong thing to strike his head. Kinko then looked at the Arashi, deeply confused.
"The fuck's wrong with you!?" He shouted. "Don't tell you got 'tired' from this pathetic fight!"
But as Kinko started to shake Arashi's body, trying to wake him. He felt a strong presence behind him. A creepy, yet familiar presence he knew all too well.
"OH SHIT!" He screamed in scared tone. "WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU HERE!?"
And there stood the leader of council: Ashiro Tensai.
