49 Chapter 49: Show No Mercy
What Zoe told Lexa just now really surprised her. Dan had been crushing on her and didn’t tell her? But she knew even if he asks her out, she won’t agree to date him. The one she likes is Kevin not Dan, she can’t force herself to love someone she doesn’t even like.
Thirteen students had came out to challenge Kevin. Five were elves while the other eight were fairies. The first student had went up to the stage to fight Kevin. His eyes were tied with a clothing as both students stood opposite each other. Kevin could see the aura of the person standing in front of him through his spiritual eyes. His Aura was glowing brightly but not as bright as his own. The way he was looking at the person in front of him was like looking at a green person. From head to toe, the person was green.
“Now we have two opponents and they are both elves.” Luke announced. “You two will be sparring with each other for a full twenty minutes, after which you will be stopped. If one of you couldn’t use his spiritual eyes, maybe the limit of your skill is up, signify so we could stop. This is not just a sparring match but a match determining how long your spiritual eyes could last. Others lasts five, ten minutes while some lasts thirty minutes. The longest one I ever saw was sixty minutes. Believe me, this is not a joke, it is something I saw myself.”
“So now, activate your spiritual eyes skill, these are the rules. If the opponent you’re fighting reaches his limit, you’ll be given another opponent to fight until your skill finally reaches his limit. Also, no one must use magic or anything.. it is a hand to hand match. Use your fists, thigh, and foot only. If anyone is caught cheating you’ll be punished, I hope you understand? Let the match begin!” As soon as Luke announced the beginning of the match, both opponents had activate their skill and were now ready to attack each other. Once the match is over they would deactivate the skill until they are ready to fight again. The cooling time for the skill is the same for everyone, twenty minutes cooling time before they could use the skill once again.
During the time Luke was busy explaining the rules, Kevin tried to see if the information about his opponent will be shown to him. But since his eyes has been covered, he couldn’t see anything. He needs to lock his eyes on his opponent if he wants to see what magic he had. Fortunately for him the system had given him a notification as Luke announced for them to begin the fight.
Kevin’s combat strength is 12 points greater than his opponent’s which means he is far stronger than his opponent. The match with his opponent will be so easy, so he got nothing to worry about.
Even the system confirmed that he would win easily as it gave him the percentage of success in the match.
No matter how long he keeps his spiritual eyes activated, it doesn’t have a cool down time so he was able to fight up to infinity without getting worn out. This was a lucky card for Kevin. He’s probably the only one with an infinity limit of the skill. Even the weapon hall teacher said the longest he ever saw was someone with sixty minutes limit, so it means he’s the only one with an infinity limit.
“How interesting.” Kevin said go himself with a smile.
.....
Kevin was more than excited to start this match, seeing how much Exp he would be receiving if he completes the quest, he was more than determined to complete the quest at all cost.
‘ Note that this is no mercy quest. You mustn’t show any mercy to whosoever your opponent is. Do you understand.’ The A1 system said.
‘ Alright,.. alright I’ve heard. I won’t show any mercy at all. Are you happy now?’ Kevin replied.
The two students had charged in at the same time. They were both skilled in a hand to hand battle but there was a difference in strength between both opponents. Although one has a great strength and was able to attack massively, the other was skilled in defending. Kevin was attacking the elf but with how well Edward was able to defend the attacks, he was finding it hard defeating him.
Since the duration of the match is twenty minutes and the student’s skill limit is eight minutes, Kevin knew he would win no matter what since his skill will not be running out anytime soon.
Finally on the Eighth minute, his opponent started losing directions of where Kevin was because his skill was already deactivating. Using that chance to his benefit, Kevin kicked the elf so hard on the stomach and the system notified him of the defeat success.
‘ Nice Job Kevin, keep going.. I have a good feeling you’ll win this quest. Just as long as you don’t show mercy to anybody your opponents.’
Kevin sighed and just ignored the system. “Whatever.” he pouted his mouth as he saw the teacher come closer to him.
“Well done kid, is your skill still active?” Luke asked to see if Kevin had reached his limit or not. The other student that Kevin defeated has been taken to the clinic bay by some Soldiers guarding the weapon hall.
Kevin nodded that his skill is active so the teacher proceeded in announcing the start of the next match.
A different opponent had went forward to challenge Kevin.
