"C'mon, bring it on!", Richard said that with provoking smile.
The masked guy is confused hearing what Richard said while tilting his head to left, but he chose to play along.
"Well, I haven't used my body for a fight for a while, I could use this opportunity", replied the masked guy and stretched his upper body.
Richard dashed to the masked guy and give a miss accurate blow with his right fist to masked guy's face.
"Hmm? What are you-?", the mask guy mumbled while dodged the blow.
BUAK!! WHUSSH!!
Suddenly, Richard's left foot hit masked guy's stomach and send him to the air, he jumped higher than him and hit the masked guy with both of his hand to his head, the masked guy bounced to the ground.
BRAKK!!
"…."
"Woaah, nice diversion magic, young boy", said masked guy while getting up after the blow and patted his upper body with both of his hands.
"I appraise you that you could stand up like there was nothing happened to you", replied Richard.
Then the masked guy blinked into Richard's back and said, "No, no, the appraisal is for you".
"?!"
Before Richard could even react, the masked guy was already behind his back.
BAMM!!
Richard got slammed really hard and flew off about 5 meters away from his spot. The masked guy was not even using his hand to hit Richard.
Exxone and Rotania was really surprised after witnessed Richard slammed away.
"Oi, he really dangerous, see what he have done to Richard", said Rotania and took a step back.
"I could see that too", replied Exxone with sweat on his face.
"You are the symbol of the element of freedom! Dash powerfully !! Vazdušna Igla !!",
Rotania moved multiple air around her into a round-piercing-wind bullet and shot it to him, but the masked guy easily dodged the wind-bullet like he already know where she was going to hit him.
Then the masked guy once again blinked to Rotania's face and punched her stomach.
BUGHH!!
"Buahh.. cough cough", she coughed because of the direct hit.
"Pritisni!!", she chanted another offensive wind magic.
BUSH!!
She pushed the masked guy to mid-air so she can put some distance between them.
"This magic gives power to give lifes into objects! Move! Plovak!"
At the same time, Exxone chanted levitation magic onto books from Rotania's handbag and thrown it to masked guy while jumped straight to him at the same time.
He was about to throw a punch on his face, but the masked guy dodged those books while floating in the air with wind magic and retaliate with his enhanced fist.
BUAK!!
Direct hit to Exxone's stomach flew him off away about 3 meters.
"He is also a wind magic element's user?" Rotania realixed that masked guy action.
"Whatever his magic element is not a problem for me!" cut Richard.
Richard attacks the masked guy once again as soon as he landed, he concentrated his mana on his right arm and punch the ground and made the ground transformed into spiky rocks.
BUM!!! BRAK!! BRAK BRAK!!
"Woah!", the masked guy startled while evading the rocks awkwardly.
Rotania dashed into close-ranged battle with him, she punched his back with her right arm right before he evaded all of the rocks.
BUAK!! Sound from a weak punch.
"PAYBACK FOR YA!", she screamed.
She casted wind magic and about to hit him with her left arm as a second hit, but he already blinked to her back and tapped her shoulder.
"Not fast enough, cutie", the masked guy send her away with his skill like he did to Richard.
BAM!!
That masked guy blow her hard with the same technique like he did to that tall boy. But the sound from the blow is weaker than before.
Exxone dashed once again from his left side and about to grab his lower body since he doesn't know what else to do. Of course he sees that coming and kicks his upper body and makes him fall to the ground.
"Looks like you are the weakest among you three", the masked guy said that to Exxone.
"Tch, yeah, I just started to learn magic here... and I couldn't use wind magic like Rotania or send you to air like Richard did, but!", Exxone replied with serious expression.
"NOW!", Exxone shouted.
"Hmm?", masked guy tilted his head.
Richard appeared behind his back and lock his neck with his long feet and drop the masked guy to the ground, Rotania once again using her Piercing Pressure and lock masked guy movement.
Exxone jumped to the masked guy's upper body.
"But I can do THIS as exchange for magic!" he is smilling widely, even both of his eyes do the same.
BUAK! BUAK! BUAK! BUNCH! BUNCH! BUAK!
"Eh?"
BUAK! BUNCH! BUAK! BUAK! BUAK!
"Wa...WAIT!"
BUAK! BUAK! BUAK!
Exxone landed his punches to his abdomen and there was no sign from him to stop the never-ending blows until both of his friends' expression changed into frightened expression seeing that liltle guy did that.
We better not looking Exxone's expression now, I took a peak just now.
He looks like a devil right now.
"UAHKK.. UUHH.. ST-… STOP!.. HEY.. YOU! OVER THERE.. YOU JUST LET THIS THING HAPPENED TO ME? YOU!", the masked guy desperately shouting to the suspicious person who following Rotania and Exxone before while beaten up.
Yes, that person is still there the whole time.
Those three moved their sight to the direction where the masked guy is talking to, but saw nothing.
"What?! How that guy know that I'm here using stealth magic, besides he is fighting those three all time along?! HOW?!", once again the suspicious person is shouting really hard in his heart and began to sweating.
Yes, once again, he fled.
"UHHK.. YOU BRATS!", then the masked guy chanted another magic skill.
BOOM! He released a great air force from his body and sends those three away.
"YOU, THE SHORT ONE! I'LL REMEMBER YOUR DIRTY FACE!", the masked guy rushed to get up while holding his belly, blinked and disappeared.
"Uhh.. He is gone?", Rotania asked.
"Yeah, I could feel that he walked away really far", replied Richard.
"I must get stronger enough to defeat that guy! I HAVE TO!!", Exxone screamed.
At that night, from Exxone's second floor's house many people could hear someone is screaming, laughing, and talk like evil person. But no one dares to check what's happening since that guy's voice was really terrifying.
Yeah, I did that, I want to become stronger and read that shitty book again and again!!
Next day, Exxone talked with Rotania and Richard before entered the class since Richard is attended in a different class.
"Yesterday was epic wasn't it? And I have some thoughts on what happened yesterday", said Exxone.
"What is it?", asked the others.
"The person who keeps following me and Rotania, I think he or she might be a student who applied in this school, because no way that person could followed us out from class like yesterday, it must be an insider. Even the mask guy noticed that guy, I think", he explained.
"Who? Who is this strange person you keep saying from yesterday?", asked Richard timidly.
"The one who you caught was not the real person who is Exxone talked about, but somehow that masked guy was also looking for us as well, what's going on here", replied Rotania.
"Secondly that masked guy, from his statement yesterday he must be not a friend with us, and also not a friend from that strange person who keep following us", Exxone added.
"From now on, me and Rotania must be together and you must help us", Exxone ordered both of them.
"HAA?! Why I must stay together with weirdo like you? I'll just ask my father to get this thing done", Rotania insulted after hearing Exxone conclusion.
"Yeah, why I must protect you guys, we just met like yesterday, not happening", replied Richard.
"Well, I know you guys will answer like this, actually I want to catch this person by own hands and judge him by myself, but seems like I couldn't rely to a princess-daughter who always putting his father if anything happen and a scumbag who provoked every guy he met and always underestimated every single one of them", Exxone taunted them with underestimating expression.
"Hoo, DON'T you underestimate Slavia's power! I will get that person first before you, AND I AM NOT A PRINCESS LIKE DAUGHTER!!", replied Rotania with stomping voice and blushed face.
"Hmm, in the meantime I already beat that guy off his face before you, princess", Richard provoked Rotania while raised his right point finger to her.
"Cheap", retort Exxone in his heart after seeing both reactions.
Two days passed, no one realized anything suspicious from the suspicious person and Exxone spent his days in school without any problem. Also, no one could catch the suspicious person in those two days.
"That's all for our lesson today, class, it's time to go home, shall we?", the lecturer disband the class.
"You better not doing anything funny in weekend, you got me?", said Exxone to Rotania with doubtful expression.
"Who do you think I am? I am not a scumbag who provokes every person he met, you know. I have a life to live for", replied Rotania with cold tone and throw her face from Exxone's vision.
Then they having their weekend.
