265 Chapter 265

Alex and Riya hurried toward the place filled with dense trees.

Alex and Riya moved nimbly in between the trees and jumped over one of the trees and observed the scene standing on the branch.

The three big fatties surround a boy of similar age with a sinister expression.

They threw some punches and used the boy as a sandbag.

The trio weren’t able to detect them and carried on their usual tasks.

The boy who was beaten pitifully didn’t give up and his eyes were burning with an emotion which showed his immense persistence.

It was filled with anger and hatred directed toward the bullies.

“Hahaha!”

“You said you are going to be the sharpest sword of Kinley, my foot!” One of them spoke and spit on the ground.

“Ptui!”

The other two followed the boss and copied his movement.

As they went on teasing Jeremy, Alex glanced at Riya and whispered.

“This boy’s talent isn’t good but he had strong willpower.”

“Hmm! Jeremy is an unlucky one,” Riya added.

“Huh!” Alex has Riya’s weird gaze.

“You don’t know him,” Riya questioned.

Seeing Alex’s curious look, she spoke.

“He is in the Martial Arts Department and is also a second year but he is in another class. When he enrolled, at the opening speech, he boasted that he was going to be Sharpest Sword Kinley and became a swordsman who could even slay a dragon.”

“And those words hurt this brain-dead egoistic bastard,” Alex said, trying to hold his laughter from leaking out.

“But I can’t blame them. Unless you have the talent to back you up, one should lay low but these idiots are too proud to do that.” Alex shook his head helplessly.

Alex didn’t know about the future but this guy’s behaviour fit to be a protagonist who gets wildly beaten up and then sets the stage on fire later on.

But was this guy boasting without any strength to back him up or was this just an illusion cast by him?

Alex felt that something was quite fishy about this.

‘This is interesting.’

“Boss, let’s just give him our daily dose and leave. It’s going to be dark soon.”

The Boss snapped his knuckles and showed his white teeth pouncing on Jeremy.

Jeremy dodged to the side and evaded the attack but he was met with a kick by the henchman and before he could do anything, the trio ganged upon him.

At that time, they heard a voice from the back.

“Hello, gentlemen!”

The trio stopped in their tracks when they heard a sound from behind and turned their heads to see Alex standing with a foolish smile.

“Alex, turn a blind eye and leave. This had nothing to do with you.” The Boss of the gang stood up and spoke.

“Kan, I know this had nothing to do with me but the sight of you ganging up on him disgusts men.”

“Can’t you just take it somewhere else?”

“It’s our choice and our territory. What right do you have to butt in here?” Kan shouted but his words choked as he found Alex vanishing from his spot and the next moment, he was standing in front of him.

“Were you saying something?” Alex’s eyes glowed dangerously and a faint fear tingled in Kan’s heart.

“Who the hell do you think you are?”

A henchman was unable to take it in and ran towards Alex raising his fist.

Alex tilted his head and looked at the very cute being darting towards him.

Just as the henchman’s fist appeared over his face, Alex backed his head and stepped back quickly.

The movement was too quick for the henchman to follow and his fist missed Alex’s face by an inch.

Alex slanted his feet and the henchman tripped over the remaining momentum causing him to fall to the ground causing him to eat dust and dirt.

“Ohhh My, you should run carefully lest you fall and injure yourself.” Alex chuckled.

The other one’s face became red with anger but unlike the previous one, he didn’t run immediately to attack and asked his boss’s permission.

Kan slightly nodded his head to give the permission.

“What are you doing?”Alex’s grin grew wider and their lips curled upward.

The second henchman, Rony, clenched his fist coating it in aura and threw a fist.

A small crystalline first appeared in the air and shot towards Alex.

” Childish!”Alex snorted and flicked his finger.

The fist was hit by an invisible mass of pressure and shattered much to Rony’s surprise who wasn’t even able to guess whether Alex used a spell or aura.

“You..” He shouted and drew closer to Alex and threw some fists.

Alex stepped backwards while dodging the blows narrowly by tilting his head.

He observed Kan’s face whose expression had already been distorted.

Kan was in the early disciple rank and these guys were at peak squire rank while Jeremy seemed to be mid squire rank.

Alex’s palm gilded through Rony’s fist and he held his wrist with one hand and put his finger with another over the chest.

“Wind Blast,” Alex murmured.

A small ball of wind condensed on his chest and a strong force seemed to permeate inside Rony who suddenly flew back in the air as if he was struck with a heavy kick.

Kan who was unable to understand what was going on was too late to realise that Rony was coming in his direction.

“Shit.”

BAM!

Rony slammed against Kan and both of them clashed on the tree trunk and were knocked out.

“Get the hell out of here, before I change my mind.” Alex spoke, dusting his hands.

The trio quickly got up and ran away tugging their tails.

Alex walked towards Jeremy who seemed unconscious.

Riya landed beside him and stared at Jeremy whose face had been hit badly.

Blood trickled from his nose and lips.

“Should we carry him to the infirmary,” Riya asked.

Alex just smiled, shaking his head and said “Brother Jeremy, you can get up.No need to act anymore. I know you are awake.”

Riya’s eyes widened and he looked down to notice a slight fluctuation in Jeremy’s expression and drops of sweat forming on his face.

Jeremy opened his eyes and stared at Alex and Riya and asked”How did you know?”

Alex smiled and spoke puffing up his chest arrogantly “Your acting skills are too amateurish. You need to brush up your skills and seek guidance from a master.”

“You can only fool those idiots, but not me. Your strength doesn’t lie in rank.”

The words startled Jeremy and he was alarmed by Alex’s words.
