"I will take revenge on you, weakling!" The student shouted as he darted forward at a decent speed despite his now bulky build. "I'm not Dave! And I'm not a weakling!" Vince cried out as he also dashed forward with the aim of a clash. And just like that, they met in the center of the battleground with a bang. The student swung his golem hand forward which broke countless sound barriers but Vince managed to side step just in time. His sword crashing down towards the earth hand but unknown to him, the student had already swung out his second hand which smashed into Vince so hard that it sent him flying with blood spraying from his mouth. His body crashed into the ground with a loud thud as he touched his nose with his thumb and could see his thumb stained crimson while the third year student still dashed forward. Earth spikes were shot forward towards Vince at terrifying speed but he quickly stood up, his metal sword moving on its own. Cleaving through the spikes like a master swordsman. With an arc swing, Vince's metal sword tore through a spike, a sharp pivot, he avoided another spike that grazed his cheek drawing a slight trickle of blood and flying away. "Over here!" Vince heard a shout from the third year student as he appeared beside Vince, his earth covered hand swung forward with a loud bang. Reacting quickly, Vince brought out his hand that was covered in a metal gauntlet in front of him taking the brunt of the attack which sent him skidding, the ground cracking beneath his feet, his teeth grit. "Curses!" Vince cried out as he tried to swing his metal sword forward when a small slab of earth erupted from the ground and whacked him in the face finally sending him flying and bouncing on the ground. "Look at you." The student said as he causally strode over to where Vince lay, his body twitching, blood dripping down his head and nose. "If someone saw you, the way you are so weak and pathetic, they wouldn't believe that you are the son of the great captain Amir." The third year student said as his tall figure hovered above Vince, his shadow casting over the injured lower classman. 'Damn it! Damn it! Am I still this weak? I…I…' Vince stuttered in his thoughts as the third year student lifted his earth covered foot and smashed the tip in Vince's stomach sending his body skidding with a cough. "How on Earth did the captain give birth to a waste like you?" The student asked as he appeared beside Vince, his earth covered feet rose up again and smashed into Vince's side sending his body skidding away, blood spraying from his mouth. "You should have died the day you were born since you brought nothing but shame to your family." The student said as his foot smashed into Vince's side again this time, a cracking sound was heard as Vince coughed out a mouthful of blood. Grey who was at the spectating stands and watching all these, had his hands tightly clenched, his teeth grit in anger and then, lightning began crackling around his hands. Max on seeing this, quickly spun around. "I know what you are thinking, but trust me. It won't do you any good to go out there." "It won't do me good to go out there?" Grey asked through grinding teeth. "Vince is getting battered out there and you want me to keep on sitting here?" "You want him to grow? Do you want him to keep depending on you? He can't grow if you keep on saving him whenever he is in trouble. What if you aren't here whenever he is in trouble and he has grown so dependent on you? How would you save him then?" Max asked. "He is right." Noir's voice echoed in Grey's mind. "You can't keep acting like a savior every single time. I have already told you this but I don't know why you are so hotheaded!" "Fine." Grey said, his hands finally unclenching as he grit his teeth and continued watching what was going to happen. Even in the viewing booth, Amir and Lucian were currently watching what was happening on the battlefield. Lucian's eyes were dancing around the field looking for anybody of interest when his gaze briefly landed on the battered Vince. "You gonna keep sitting here and watch your son getting battered?" Lucian asked, a playful smirk on his face. "This is the only way for him to grow. He is already seventeen, I can't keep babysitting him." Amir replied frankly as his gaze left Vince and moved towards the others. "Isn't your fatherly instinct kicking in? That urge, that drive to save your son." Lucian asked, a smirk on his face. "It is kicking in. But I need to overlook it and let him grow on his own. He is going to be an adult soon, he need to learn to take care of himself." Amir replied as his gaze locked onto Vince again. "If you say so." Lucian shrugged as a small frown appeared on his face. 'Now, why the hell can't I find someone of interest? No one here interests me at all. Although, this is just team B versus team B, before I finally decide, I need to wait for the team A match up. I just hope my gut feeling didn't fail me this time.' Back at the fight, the third year student smirked as he looked at the sprawled Vince who was clutching his side, pain coursing through his every vein. 'I…I thought it was going to be easy. Since they got chosen as the team B, I thought they were useless.' Vince thought, tears streaming down his face. 'But who am I kidding? A third year is still a third year damn it! I…I…I give up! I… I can't fight an…' his thoughts trailed off when he saw Grey's face appear in his mind. "It's now, I realize why Dave hate you so badly." The third year student spoke as he stood directly in front of Vince, his heavy earth body still towering over him. 'If…if it was Grey in this position, what would he do?' Vince thought as Grey's image kept flashing through his mind while drowning out what the student in front of him was saying. "Do you want to know what I would do?" Grey's voice suddenly flashed in Vince's mind. "I would fight, fight back regardless of whether my opponent is stronger than I am. That is what made me who I am today. Defy all odds and prove your supremacy." 'Gr…Grey?! That's what he would say. Despite being a cripple before, he still fought back and came out on top. I can't give up now, not when Grey, dad and my friends are watching. I…I…' Vince thought his teeth grinding back and forth. "Do you know what I would do in your position?" The third year student asked as he raised his foot again aiming for another kick. "I would give up and stop trying to prove myself because, you are useless!" He shouted as he swung his foot forward at tremendous speed breaking the sound barrier again. Hearing the loud bang, Raze swiftly turned around, blood dripping down his face. "Damn it! Vince!" He shouted but then, another bang was heard again as the students foot connected, dust got kicked up blurring where Vince lay. "I…I…I would never give up!" Vince roared as the dust cleared up, metal encasing his arm, from his shoulder down to his fingers which he used to grab the student's earth foot. Eyes blazing with immense fury as his teeth grind back and forth. __ {A/N} This Supreme Author wants to make an apology to you all. This chapter might seem jumbled, the writing style might be different from before and I think there are still some grammatical errors in it. That's because the app I always use to edit my chapter is now misbehaving badly. It keeps removing my content (chapter) and flagging it as 'Going against their damned policies.' I'm so sorry for this guys! I hope the app will get back to normal before the next chapter drops. Thanks in advance for understanding guys!????????✌️ Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
