Chapter 2134 Contingency
The elder felt a searing pain his chest.
He never knew the backlash from his attack could be so severe. He gritted his teeth and tried to fight the urge to puke his blood out.
"Come on, an elder is trying to attack a student? Is Zeus Academy in such a bad state? To hire some second rate idiots who cant control their temper as elders?"
Chorus spoke in a lazy tone. It isn't much different from the tone of a person who just woke up from a sleep.
"Chorus?" The Elder asked in a confused tone. He is genuinely puzzled. Rarely anyone ever sees Chorus outside of the academy. Even in the Academy he is only visible in his classes. It was already a big deal when he went to the freshmen tournament.
Now, that he is seen here, there is a good reason for being surprised.
And along with that surprise they also felt fear. There is a reason why even the Dean of the Thor Academy felt threatened and stayed on his toes with Chorus around. They don't want that smoke.
Sam knew that the situation finally turned for better.
He blinked from the spot and reappeared beside Dove. "YOU...."
An elder once again extended his hand to catch a hold of him, but Dove shielded Sam as she shielded him. She got ready to attack him upfront. Which stunned the Elder. And that stunned expression turned into an ugly scowl.
"How dare you? A mere student dares to attack an Elder?"
*CLAP* *BOOM*
Chorus clapped his hand at the moment and an energy wave hit the Elder in the face, throwing him off.
"Don't make me work like this. Stay put." Chorus lazily spoke and turned towards the rest of the students from the Gambler Academy.
"Let's go. Do you want to get interrogated by them?"
They shook their heads and ran towards Dove's side. They started moving back. However, even before they could leave the premises...
"Stop. No one is leaving this place."
Dean of the Zeus Academy made his way and spoke in a resounding voice. Sam sighed and almost cursed out loud.
Just when he thought they escaped.
The Dean is fucking persistent.
Chorus finally had a serious expression on his face.
"Dean, you shouldn't be doing things like these. You know what Dean Wharton is like. You don't want to see him angry."
The air is filled with burned hair. The cut of strands didn't even hit the ground, they just burned in a second and disappeared altogether.
Raios gulped hard.
In that small instant, he felt the heat from that plasma blade. Even the small scruff of facial hair he barely grew was burned off from that distance.
He gulped hard and he didn't even want to fight. He activated lightning fusion, turned into a streak. He started moving towards the pocket dimension. The three puppet's launched themselves into the air. There are several jet mechanisms installed in the back and the legs of the puppets. Plasma wings opened up on its back as they helped them glide through the air.
The blasters are similar to the design Sam implemented in his hoverboard. The three puppets flew towards Raios and blocked his path.
He swung his sword to block the plasma blade while dodging the other two puppets. Once again, he only escaped through hair's breadth.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
Explosions rang loud and clear, creating shockwaves all over the place, destroying the surroundings. Soon, Raios is crashed into the ground as the three puppets surrounded him. From one of the puppets' eyes a light beam shot out to scan Raios' body.
[Verification Done. The candidate has obtained the Puppet Created by the Southern Faction. Proceeding to Eliminate the target.]
Raios' blood turned cold. He immediately took out the puppet he just obtained and merged with it.
*SWOOSH*
As the plasma blade of the puppet came towards him, his own puppet wielded a plasma blade of its own and swung it back. He started performing the same sword art that the puppet tried to teach him. As he blocked the attacks one by one, he got more used to it.
He could feel the new information being injected into his mind. With every passing second the sword art became easier. He comprehended more and more of it. Along with that, the three puppets were also pushed back.
After three minutes...
Raios suddenly felt something click in his mind. The surrounding energy condensed into his energy blade and he slashed vertically downwards. The inscriptions of the puppet's arms glowed. The gravity around them is manipulated.
It is focused on the opponent puppet.
The vertical cleave landed straight on the chest of the puppet opening it up.
The second puppet in the distance stopped moving.
[Target already connected with the puppet. One of the puppets is down. Initiating retreat.]
The two other puppets came and caught the third puppet before all three of them flew away.
Raios finally rested. The puppet dismantled. He ran out of it.
However, the next moment, a searing pain invaded his mind and he passed out. At the same time the puppet the puppet shrunk in size and disappeared. In place of it, a ring appeared. The ring flew over and inserted itself over Raios' finger.
Raios had a pained expression on his face as several memories and information were forcefully injected into his mind, imprinting themselves into deepest subconscious."
