Chapter 94 - 93: Not The Weakest Anymore

"Who do you think will win?" Christina asked Rebecca with a smile and Serina's face twitched a bit. That definitely wasn't the right thing to ask her. She had just been rejected after all.

Serina looked at Rebecca with a complicated look on her face. She was wondering whose side she would take. If it was a regular day, there would be no doubt that she would be cheering for Aiden.

"It's tough to say…" Rebecca muttered in a low voice and didn't say anything further.

"I don't think so.." A voice sounded and a figure took a seat beside them.

It was Duke.

"Why are you always after him?" Serina asked him with a frown. These people here were all part of the same circle, and had known each other since a young age. So, it was not like they were unfamiliar with each other.

"He accepted the challenge. He could have always refused it. So, don't say that I am the one after him. He is the one seeking his demise." Duke shook his head with a smile as he looked at the ground where the battle was about to begin.

"You say stuff like that, but your actions sure are different." Serina snorted. This guy was really annoying.

"How about I tell you guys why he is so obsessed with him?" A voice sounded from behind. And, people turned around to see a guy smiling at them. He was almost showing his teeth.

Duke's face instantly turned grim when he saw the pink hair clown.

"What are you doing here, Ronnie?" Serina frowned as she looked at her brother. The two of them were siblings.

"Nothing, I just heard there was something fun going on." He smiled before taking the seat behind them.

He then turned his head to look at Duke, and spoke, "You haven't change, do I tell-"

"Mind your own business, Ronnie." Duke looked at him with a grim look in his eyes, "If not, we can settle this with a fight anytime…"

"Scary~" Ronnie smiled, not at all affected by that threat.

"It's starting.." Christina muttered, and it attracted everyone's attention.



[Keep your calm. He is only a level above you. You can beat him easily. Just concentrate and use what you have been practicing until now-nya.]

'I know..' Leo calmed himself and took a deep breath in before walking ahead.

His opponent, Pako, came forward as well. There was a wide grin on his face, and he really seemed to be happy.

"Get ready…" The Instructor spoke looking at the two, and a projection screen appeared above the field showing the two people participating in the bout.

There was also a countdown on it which would signify the start of the battle.

"Draw your weapon out. Don't tell me later, that I didn't give you a chance." The little looked at Leo as his lips curled up into a smile. Leo clearly was being looked down upon.

But he shook his head. He hadn't learned to use any weapon at all. There was no way he would be able to use one even if he picked it. That would just make things harder for him.

"I am fine."

Leo's response took people by surprise, and they really became curious. Aiden earlier was known for his skills with a Spear. It was the main weapon in his arsenal, something he was very good at.

Yet, he had refused to pick it up. These made people curious as to what he was going to do without any weapons.

"What about you?" Leo asked the goblin. He could see that he had strapped his dagger to his waist. It was not in his hand.

"I don't think I need one.."

Well, he sure was one cocky guy.

'Scan him Arthur..'

Name: [Pako]

Lv 6: [Awake]

Yellow Rank Skill: [Furry Dash]

Race: [Goblin]

Comprehensive Body Assessment: [F]

[Stats]

Strength: 47

Agility: 64

Stamina: 57

'Well, he isn't much stronger than me..' Leo muttered to himself. This guy could be said to be agile on his feet.

[Seeing how he is treating you as a weak plaything, I know he would come straight at you. So, be prepared-nya.] Aiden warned Leo and he noted it down. Aiden after all was a veteran who had gone over thousand battles.

The Arora energy in Leo's body began to move, and he prepared himself to react.

"Buzz!"

A buzzer rang across the stadium as the countdown above hit zero.

"Whoosh!"

Pako immediately rushed in without a single bit of hesitation. He was really quick on his feet but thanks to Aiden, Leo was prepared. The yellow colored aura enveloped his feet as he pushed his left foot against the ground and turned his body before throwing his right foot out, performing a spinning back kick.

Pako definitely didn't think that Leo could react to his speed. He was overconfident and hadn't prepared for a counter at all.

"Bang!"

Pako being short in height turned out to be a misfortune for him. The kick which should have normally landed at the abdomen or chest, sank into his face.

"Crack!"

Leo could hear something crack, and his eyes immediately widened. He surely hadn't planned for something like this.

"Whoosh!"

The poor guy went flying through the stadium before crashing into the outer wall on the opposite side. His body slowly slid down the wall and collapsed onto the ground unconscious. The guy's mouth was bloody with several broken teeth, and possibly a fractured skull.

"...."

There was a pin drop silence around the stadium which was finally broken by the Instructor.

"Match Over.."

"Aiden Wins!'

The voice immediately brought people back to their senses. But, they still were in shock.

"He seems to have leveled up.."

"Did you see that kick?"

" I think he has been practicing it in secret.."

"How is that possible? It would take one all they had to practice one's weapons techniques to master's level. How could he practice some kind of Kicking technique to such a level as well. He only has a Yellow grade skill to begin with how can he have so much energy to divide his attention.."

People began to gossip while Duke stared at Leo, there seemed to be some kind of light in his eyes. And, his lips were curling up into a devious grin.

Ronnie looked at Duke and smiled, "It seemed he is not the weakest anymore."



'Wasn't he strong?' Leo asked in confusion. He honestly was a bit speechless. That guy was weak as hell. Hell, his skill was related to agility but he was no ware fast enough.

[Well…that…nya..] Aiden was really lacking words to describe the situation as well. He had no idea what had just happened.

[The Niverian Kicking Art is the creation of my creator. Don't treat it in the same league as other people's technique. It's obvious that you can decimate people a bit stronger than you by using this technique.] Arthur finally came to explain the situation to them.

[That certainly is nice to hear. So, how strong is he-nya?] Aiden couldn't help but ask in curiosity.

[It will be better if you find it on your own.] Arthur wasn't going to provide an answer for everything.

"Beep!"

Leo looked at his smart link and saw that his points had gone up by a 1000. It was definitely from that goblin guy. He could see that he was now ranked 6451st rank. There were a total of 7000 students in MTP.

He currently had 2000 points and needed a few more to cross the person above him.

'Who is at the top?' Leo looked at it in curiosity, and his face twitched.

Rank No. 1: Rebecca G. Lynchfield - 1.4 Million Points.

Well, that surely was over the charts.

'Is she really that strong?' Leo couldn't help but ask, a bit doubtful.

[How am I supposed to know? It's not like I could last in front of her even if she uses half of her power, much less full-nya.] Aiden grumbled.

"Hmmn?" Leo suddenly felt a disgusting feeling taking over him. He was familiar with this feeling, it hadn't been long since the library incident after all.

It was a Zest.

He was sure about it. He immediately turned his head around to look, but he couldn't find anything as that feeling vanished. He was sure that it had appeared, he wasn't hallucinating.

'How could it be present here?' A frown appeared on his face. 'Don't tell me…'

Leo began to have a bad feeling about it. He clearly remembered that thing had drilled a hole into Harry's palm and was able to manage to gain partial control of his body. If that was the case, then there was no saying that it couldn't gain full control over a student and roam around the campus like any other guy.

"Clap!!"

Leo turned his head to when he heard the clapping noise, and a frown appeared on his face when he saw it was Duke.

"It seems you have improved…" He smiled at Leo.

[Be careful-nya!!] Aiden immediately warned as this wasn't something new to him. He knew this b*stard was crazy.

The next second, Duke disappeared from his spot.

"Zmmn!"

Leo's battle arm immediately lit up with a pale yellow light as the arora energy began to flow into it. This immediately made his strength stats to soar.

"Whoosh!"

Duke appeared in front of Leo, and threw a fist out. Leo wasn't planning to hold back and retaliated with all his might.

"Bang!"
