Chapter 313: The Most Dangerous Person!

At this moment, in another part of the forest, in a clearing, a black-haired youth with grey eyes dressed in ornate white and golden armor was locked in a fierce confrontation with two others, who were clumsily pointing their weapons at him.Wrong, this was no confrontation... Instead, it was! The youth in gold and white armor had a relaxed posture with a hint of boredom flickering in those grey eyes. His expression alone seemed to say, This is futile, just give up!

The other two Awakened, however, weren't so relaxed. Their eyes, arms, and legs were trembling with an unstoppable force. They were even struggling to stay on their feet as they tried to mask their tearful gazes with defiance, but they were failing horribly.

The scalps of the two tingled as they cursed their terrible luck. Why! Why does it have to be him? The two examinees thought in dread. Of all the people they could run into, it just had to be the entrance exam favorite!

What was worse, one of the examinees was the one who had said he'd pity whoever would be paired up with Theo. That youth bit his lips, almost drawing blood. Perhaps he could've just kept his mouth shut then.

"You guys really want to do this the hard way, don't you?" Theo Fanum yawned, tears streaming down from his eyes. Theo wasn't hot-headed like most of the teenagers present here. He was someone who liked to avoid a fight if it could be resolved through dialogue.

Unfortunately, not everyone was like him. Though terrified because of their enemy's intimidating level, they were no cowards. They wouldn't give up their dream to attend the prestigious academy and make a name for themselves in the kingdom and the human domain as a whole.

Their eyes seemed to burn with resolve, as if that moment and their grasp on their weapons tightened! Initially, both were about to fight each other, but they figured that taking out the most dangerous person in the scene was the best thing to do! With a subtle nod at each other, the two examinees kicked the ground and shot forward like a pair of unleashed arrows.

"So you want to play it like this? Very well then." A resigned expression appeared on Theo's face as he shifted one foot backward and brought one of his arms to the hilt of his jewel-encrusted sword.

"I'd avoid a fight if I could, but that doesn't mean I'm a kind person." Theo's voice echoed again as he locked his eyes on his opponents. Then, in a lightning-fast arm movement—which was too fast for the advancing examinees to see—Theo sheathed and unsheathed his sword... At least, this was what his opponents had seen.

They knew something was wrong, but they threw all their thoughts aside and continued to charge forward in reckless abandon. If only they'd been more observant, they'd have noticed the trail of silver lights expanding out from Theo.

Just when they were a few meters away from reaching the white-gold armored knight, the two abruptly fell face-flat to the hard ground. They hurriedly tried to get up, but then their eyes widened as they realized that their lower halves had been separated from their torsos, and blood was flowing out like a broken tap.

"W-what! Are you trying to kill us?!" The two shouted as they felt the cold embrace of death. Many questions passed through their minds. Wasn't this an entrance exam? Why would he go to such lengths just for a token? And how can he remain so calm as if this wasn't the first time he was doing something like this?

But what was most terrifying about Theo was that they hadn't even seen him fully draw his sword. From their point of view, they had only seen him pull the sword slightly back from the sheath and unsheathe it. So how...?

Just then, Theo said calmly as he walked forward, "I'm not trying to kill you, but I'd do it if you don't give me the token."

"Dang it, it's not worth it!" The two quickly handed their tokens to Theo, who accepted them, then turned his back and walked away.

As he left, they heard him click his tongue in disdain. "This is getting too easy. Perhaps that musclehead or that Nyx girl would be interesting."

Elsewhere, the full-bodied armored warrior whom Nox had found a bit odd was engaging three examinees in what appeared to be a one-sided beatdown!

It was as if the person found it beneath themselves to touch the swords behind them and simply used their feet to deal massive damage to their opponents. Because of the helmet, which perfectly hid their face, it was difficult for the three examinees to discern if their attacker was male or female.

However, from the way this person moved and the overwhelming power, they strongly suspected that the person was male!

Before long, the three examinees were beaten into a pulp and hesitantly handed over their tokens, which totaled eleven, to the armored figure with a dejected expression. Though there was still enough time for them to target weaker people, it still made their hearts bleed, knowing that they'd be left far behind by their peers.

But their wallowing was none of the armored figure's concern as they began to leave the scene. Plus the eleven tokens, the armored figure now had 49 tokens, placing them among the current top five!

"At first, I didn't think too much about this entrance exam, but now that you're here as well, I might as well win this thing," the figure thought.

Just then, their danger senses blared in their head, and they swiftly turned around—just in time to sidestep a massive iron sledgehammer, which was about to slam into their helmet. Experience tales at M V L

BANG!

The blade of the sledgehammer, after missing its target, struck the ground and lodged there. The sheer power behind the attack caused slight cracks to appear in the surroundings.

"I knew there was something odd about you." A deep masculine voice echoed, and a youth with golden eyes made his way from behind a tree trunk. The armored figure stared at this person with no apparent emotion in their eyes, despite knowing that this person was one of the favorites to win the entrance exam.

Kali nodded his head slightly as he saw the relaxed posture of this mysterious person, which contrasted against the other examinees he had encountered.

"I thought as much," Kali whispered as he stretched his arms. The sledgehammer trembled, and the cracks on the ground seemed to expand outward. Then, as if it possessed a subconscious of its own, it flew back into his grasp.

"The others think Theo is the most dangerous person in this exam, but... I beg to disagree!"

Although the armored figure didn't respond right away, a moment later, the sides of their lips curled upward, and they declared in a confident, arrogant voice, "You're not wrong, and now you'll see just how dangerous I am!"
