Chapter 197: Elias Deathwill’s shock
‘I should control myself… How could Elias Deathwill be here? It’s someone who looks like him,’ Alex whispered inwardly before cooling off his emotions.
Although Alex hoped for the game to be real yet fake at the same time, he was sane enough to know the limits of fantasy.
However, Alex soon realized that he couldn’t quench his flames of hatred. Even if that man just looked the same, Alex still felt like he had to say something. He wouldn’t be able to forgive himself if he said nothing.
Alex extended his hands for two wooden swords. He then made his way toward Elias Deathwill despite his girlfriend still talking with others.
Because Alex also wore a mysterious aura around himself, many girls noticed him before he even did something. He had his own charm, after all.
And as he got closer to Elias Deathwill, everyone threw their eyes at them. Olivia also stared at Alex, clueless as to why he didn’t wait for them. But for some reason, she felt like Alex had his own cause to act solo.
“Have we met somewhere?” Elias Deathwill asked with a gentle smile, feeling Alex’s glaring.
Alex shook his head, “It’s our first time meeting.” He then lifted his eyes and whispered, “I would like to test my abilities against you. Let’s have a spar.”
Everyone in the crowd shook their heads.
It was just too rude to ask one of the sensei like that… It was the norm in Elias Deathwill’s case, so they just expected him to ignore Alex.
But to their surprise, Elias agreed, “Sure. You are a dual wielder?”
“Yes,” Alex nodded, deeply focusing on Elias’ reaction.
He didn’t miss Elias’ surprise and shock flashing briefly in his eyes. That was weird as it was indeed their first meeting.
So why would his face flash with disappointment?
Alex clenched his hands, ‘It has to be a coincidence… It has to be…’ His heartbeat increased as he thought about the impossible.
But as Elias lifted his wooden sword, Alex’s heart rate returned to normal. He focused on his enemy’s posture, sword, and reach. Alex analyzed everything he had learned during his game experience.
He also thought about his moves during his prime. Back then, Alex was using Elias Deathwill’s swordsmanship; after all…
‘I will confirm it… in this way…’ Alex decided…
Thus, the spar between the two Deathwill started.

BANG! BANG! BANG!
“It’s different from his usual spars,” One of the dojo masters whispered.
Olivia asked, “What’s different here?”
The master narrowed his eyes, “He’s slower than usual as if he’s analyzing the youngster’s swords… And look at his face… He always smiles during his spars… Yet, he’s so focused now…”
Olivia couldn’t tell what was going on.
But as she looked at her boyfriend, his expression was the same. He was in a deep focus, doing his best against the handsome teacher. She was happy to see him being this good in a real-life as it meant that Alex had a lot of potentials.
But more than anything, it was always cool to see their sweetheart shining.
However, after a while, Alex’s countenance began changing… He scrunched his face with evident anger and hatred. His moves became uncharacteristic of his usual style as if he was just throwing swords around with fury.
Elias Deathwill was calmly parrying them all, controlling his heart.
Olivia couldn’t look at such Alex. He was definitely not himself, highly influenced by a third party… As a girlfriend, it was her turn to help him return to himself. It was her job to clear his mind!
“Alex! How could you forget your own words?! Remember what you told me after our first meeting! You are making me cry, stupid!” Olivia clenched her hands, shouting out of her lungs.
Alex’s mind flashed with their first meeting. Back then, his girlfriend was more than your usual delinquent. Her fists hurt everyone, including teachers. She used her power for everything.
It was him who told her to control herself… With a proper mindset, she would see more of the world. She would be able too to enjoy her life more!
Alex jumped a few steps back, then inhaled deeply. After exhaling everything, his focus returned, “Thank you, Olivia.”
He then bit his lips and rushed forward. After his two swords clashed with Elias Deathwill’s sword, he brought his face closer to him.
He whispered so that only Elias would hear him, “I don’t know whether it is the reality or I am dreaming. I never expected to meet you in this way. Heck… I can’t even tell whether it is you…
But if you are that Elias Deathwill… Then let me tell you something… From the bottom of my heart, I hate you,” Alex pushed all his emotions toward Elias, shocking him as his strength surged.
Alex then slammed all his power onto defenseless Elias!
However, Elias wouldn’t be called a peak of humanity if that was enough to throw him out of his flow. He quickly corrected his posture, blocking Alex’s attack.
As their swords clashed, the powerful fantasy force came out from their bodies!
BANG!
All windows in the dojo opened, heralding a sudden draught! Everyone’s clothes fluttered wildly as if they were in a tornado.
Elias Deathwill… fell onto his bottom…
Alex threw all swords behind, pouncing at Elias like a feral beast. He saddled him, then punched his face with all his might, “LISTEN! I will take care of your daughters, for I love them deeply!
I will never let you hurt them! Your fucking plot does not matter at all!”
Elias Deathwill’s cheek swelled as he puked a mouthful of blood. He closed his eyes, listening to Alex with his heart beating fast.
Alex didn’t think that Elias would spit out all his plot… He knew that this bastard had been plotting something for years.
But more than anything, he was a selfish bastard who never loved his wife and daughters… His love toward them was… different…
“You treated them like objects, didn’t you?!” Alex kept punching Elias Deathwill’s face for as long as he could before other disciples took him away.
