I, the All-Class Magus, All My Awakening Skills are LvMax

The situation unfolded much as Lucas had anticipated.

When Baron learned of the circumstances, he didn't scold Lucas.

Instead, he even smiled and said, "Albertus was thoughtless, I hope you won't mind. Since this heritage is so important to House Carter, we naturally shouldn't obstruct you. However, if you wish to obtain the Crimson Demon's heritage, you'll still need to pass the trial, and I'm afraid I can't assist you with that."

Hearing Baron's words, Lucas was overjoyed and didn't take the latter part of the statement seriously.

He quickly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Chief Baron, for your understanding. After today's events, I will surely bring my elders to House Fairfax to express our thanks."

Baron simply smiled, saying nothing more, watching Lucas's figure enter the Bones Tower.

Albertus scratched his head, puzzled, "Uncle, are we letting him off too easily? Aren't we making it too easy for Lucas?"

Albertus had initially thought Baron would give Lucas a hard time, but to his confusion, Baron had simply let him go, not even mentioning the fact that he had forcefully entered House Fairfax's secret realm.

Baron, with a smile, reassured, "Don't worry. As for today's events, once I return to the capital, I will ensure House Carter provides us with an explanation. And as for Lucas, he will soon face his own challenges. To obtain the Crimson Demon's heritage, he must defeat eleven bosses of his level to complete the trial.

If he fails to do so, or dies within the secret realm, even House Carter won't have much to say."

Albertus then realized Baron's intentions.

Baron appeared amiable but was cunningly laying a trap.

He hadn't informed Lucas about the trial's specifics, intending to ensnare him.

By the time Lucas realized, it would be too late.

Unprepared, he would inevitably fail the trial, and at that point, it would have nothing to do with House Fairfax.

It would be Lucas's own inadequacy, and they could continue to hold House Carter accountable without any loss on their part.

Albertus inwardly admired, acknowledging that experience indeed comes with age.

His uncle had skillfully avenged themselves, not only causing House Carter to suffer silently but also forcing them to come and apologize.

…

At this moment, John was unaware that Lucas had also entered the Bones Tower.

After stepping inside, his vision blurred momentarily.

When John regained his senses, he found himself in a vast open-air coliseum.

A notification appeared before him:

[You have entered the "Death Arena." The first level of the trial is about to begin. Please prepare yourself!]

John looked around and saw that the coliseum was enormous, spanning ten thousand meters.

Looking up, he could see the azure sky and white clouds, and he stood right at the center of the coliseum, with spectator stands on both sides.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Not long after John entered, the sound of gears turning echoed through the arena.

Soon after, the ground began to tremble as if some massive creature was about to emerge.

John heightened his alertness.

Then, at the edge of the arena, a stone gate slowly opened.

A figure, towering four to five meters tall, came into John's view.

It was bare-chested, with a bronze-hued body, immensely muscular, wielding a two-meter-long giant machete.

Its head was tightly wrapped in bandages, leaving only a hole in the middle of its face, through which a large crimson eye could be seen staring intently at John, filled with savagery and madness.

[Name: One-Eyed Lich King (trial)]

[Level: lv15]

[HP: 150,000]

[Strength: 1771]

[Stamina: 1315]

[Defense: 1057]

[Speed: 245]

[Skills: Blood Strike, Blood Resurgence, Roar Intimidation, Blood Blade Barrage, Blood Rage…]

John, eyeing the One-Eyed Lich King's stats, gripped his staff tighter.

Although the monster was only level 15, its attributes and HP far surpassed the creatures he had encountered before, even overwhelmingly surpassing the level 20 Bloodstripe Wolf King he had faced earlier.

Clearly, the monsters within the trial were specially enhanced and couldn't be judged by normal standards.

As soon as the One-Eyed Lich King emerged from the stone gate, it charged at John without a moment's hesitation!

Its bare, gigantic feet thudded on the coliseum floor, making John feel the ground tremble under the immense force.

A blue glow lit up in John's eyes, and a cyan shield shimmered around him in an attempt to widen the gap between them.

However, the One-Eyed Lich King didn't afford him the opportunity.

With a powerful stomp on the ground, its majestic body transformed into a colossal projectile, hurtling towards John.

John remained composed, his staff swirling as a dark light glimmered in his eyes.

In front of him, two black magical circles swiftly materialized.

"Novice Skeleton Summoning!"

Instantly, two towering, burly skeletons emerged from the circles.

Standing three meters tall, they donned tattered black armor, with ghostly flames flickering in their eye sockets.

In their bony hands, they wielded white bone swords and shields.

They exuded an aura of decay but stood resolutely before John, the flames in their eyes burning fiercely without a hint of fear or retreat.

[Name: Skeleton Warrior (common)]

[Level: lv20]

[HP: 80,000]

[Strength: 1078]

[Spirit: 833]

[Defense: 579]

[Speed: 125]

[Skills: Defense, Guard, Slash, Parry…]

Since acquiring this skill, it was John's first time using it, and he was thoroughly impressed with the outcome.

Both creatures' damage and defense nearly reached the level of elite-tier monsters!

This was likely due to his exceptionally high mind power.

After all, summoned beings are influenced by the summoner's strength, and with John's mind power being several times that of an average awakener, it was only natural that the skeletons he summoned were strong.

The One-Eyed Lich King reached John in just the blink of an eye, but the two skeleton warriors fearlessly stepped forward to block its path.

The Lich King's eyes were filled with brutality as it radiated a blood-red glow, swinging its giant machete to cleave the two daring 'ants' obstructing its way.

"Blood Strike!"

Both skeleton warriors gripped their weapons tightly and stepped forward, raising their shields to block.

"Clang!!!"

Two massive impacts, almost overlapping, echoed throughout the coliseum as the skeleton warriors were sent flying by the One-Eyed Lich King's immense force, crashing heavily onto the ground.

Even though they successfully blocked the attack, huge damage numbers still rose above their heads.

"-7189!" "-6855!"

Fortunately, the skeleton warriors managed to block most of the damage; otherwise, the strike might have left them severely crippled if not dead.

The Skeleton Puppets, incapable of feeling pain, quickly got back on their feet after being knocked down.

Once upright, they charged at the One-Eyed Lich King once more, brandishing their swords with great valor.

As the skeleton warriors charged at the One-Eyed Lich King, John was far from idle.

The ice and water elements around him were swiftly mobilized.

A massive ice ball rapidly coalesced in mid-air.

"Ice Meteorite!"

A gigantic ice ball, spanning several dozen meters, quickly formed.

Under John's command, it thunderously flew towards the One-Eyed Lich King!

At this moment, the One-Eyed Lich King was entangled with the two skeleton warriors, swinging its enormous machete in an attempt to smash these reckless beings into oblivion.

By the time it realized John's skill was upon it, it was already too late.

"Boom!!!"

The Ice Meteorite crashed down with a tremendous impact, causing the entire coliseum to shudder violently!

"-65215!"

Terrifying damage numbers instantly appeared, slashing the One-Eyed Lich King's HP by nearly half.

The two skeleton warriors, having been signaled by John to move away from the attack radius, were unharmed.

John remained vigilant, aware that this single strike wouldn't be enough to defeat the One-Eyed Lich King.

After all, this was one of the twelve Apostles of the Crimson Demon, and even a weakened version wouldn't be so easily overcome.

As expected, within mere moments, John saw a chilling blade light flare up, and the massive Ice Meteorite was suddenly shattered, transforming into a cloud of frost that scattered in all directions.

Following that, a blood-red figure charged towards John once more.

The One-Eyed Lich King was now enveloped in a thick layer of blood light, its speed and strength significantly enhanced.

At the same time, its HP began to recover at an astonishing rate.

In just a brief moment, it had already regained a tenth of its HP.

"Blood Rage!"

"Blood Resurgence!"

The two skeleton warriors, now at less than half health, quickly stepped forward to intercept the One-Eyed Lich King.

John dared not be the slightest bit negligent.

His body lit up with a blend of gold and earthen hues, and a majestic golden armor rapidly materialized around him.

"Gold Mail Armor!"

Then, a dark, ink-like, bizarre rune flew from John's Necrostaff, striking the forehead of the One-Eyed Lich King as swift as lightning.

Instantly, a faint black mist enveloped the One-Eyed Lich King.

"Silent Curse!"
