Anthony felt the space fold around him as he stepped through the portal.
Anthony had arrived at his 'supposed location'.
The atmosphere here was stained in utter chaos, destruction, death as not a single sign of vitality existed here.
Even those that tended to have vitality were already corrupted as they were no longer considered 'living'.
Dread gnawed at anybody who stood here at this moment because they knew only one thing could live in such an environment.
The Demons and whatever was stained with their chaos.
Anthony felt space twist as about five students instantly appeared next to him.
The five of them also getting the feel of the environment they were transported to.
Then suddenly their face turned dark as the confidence radiating of their body earlier on in the Academy suddenly vanished.
Although they had fought demons during the Academy invasion, that was on their own turf.
Entering the enemies territory was a completely separate matter in itself.
The chaos here was off the charts.
Chaos on its own tends to always corrupted mana whenever it came in contact with it making it chaotic.
Chaotic mana is very hard to control and to use during battle.
This made the ability called Mana Zone become nothing but a decoration to most.
So everyone has no choice but to rely on the mana they have in their core and don't dare to try and replenish from the atmosphere.
Their only hope would be their potions.
Even being in the presence of chaos for too long could lead to corruption, although the process can be slow or fast depending on the concerntration.
Of course mana can be used to purge any sign of corruption, but doing this waste too much mana that should have been channeled into an attack or defence.
Of course there are outrageous geniuses that have developed skills and techniques that allows them to use chaotic mana without too much problems.
But it was very difficult getting such techniques, but, getting them was one thing, using them was another thing.
There is a reason why only geniuses could even create them in the first place.
But chaotic mana aren't only caused due to chaos.
It is also caused due to intense collision of mana and elements like during war.
Mana in this state becomes harder to control, but at least without the risk of corruption.
As Anthony kept looking around, the five voices sounded.
"Damn it, how can the Academy send us to our deaths"
"Is the Academy going crazy"
"Shit, we might be able to escape, but that's if we don't die before we can even activate the escape mechanism"
They were discussing their lives here and he was discussing about the outside world.
Beside what does a racial standing have to do with absolute power.
The four of them never dared to believe Anthony's power was a fake or anything like that.
Although they looked down on humans in general, when they meet the strong ones they dare not show the same attitude.
Anthony looked at the clown who just spewed something unrelated to the matter at hand.
Then he said with a sigh.
"I do not care about being leader of the party, besides who even said I was going to be in the party in the first place when I have nothing to gain"
Anthony shook his head as he said this.
As soon as Anthony was done speaking, the boy's aura exploded out of his body as his mana rank showing that of a beginner B ranker burst forth.
"I don't care what you say you lowly human, you who use your family's power to clear an impossible mission then flaunt around in a false power you do not have"
"Knell before me human, do not let me repeat myself"
The boy said as his aura stayed as strong as his stupidity.
The other four didn't intervene, they didn't even know each other, or even the boy, so they just watched wondering how Anthony would deal with this.
'It seems I finally encountered an arrogant young master'
Anthony thought as he looked at the boy.
Anthony had not the strength to exchange words with him.
He won't be playing the useless cliché scene for anyone to watch.....read.
Before any of the four watching could react, they a heard a bang sound followed by warm blue liquids splashing all over their bodies before they could even react.
The boy was dead and his blood has splashed over them.
Anthony had controlled space within the boy's body.
With just a minor command over space, the boy's body exploded, erupting his innards everywhere.
Anthony looked at the boy's remains then turned around and left by simply walking.
It was against the rules to kill a fellow student of the Academy.
And Anthony has just broken that rule.
But did Anthony care? Nope.
The school won't antagonise the most talented being they had ever witnessed over a dead idiot they didn't even know.
Anthony knew this, he knew even if the entire thing was to take a hug turn, the Dean would still rule in his favour.
Power was simply everything here.
Rules? Bend them with power.
