"What were you thinking letting him fight?"
My said looking at my with an angry expression, my dad on the other hand had a look of confusion
"Are you seriously worried he'll lose? His fighting someone his age, he won't lose, I don't think he'll even get hurt"
."I'm not worried for him! I'm worried for the other kid!"
My mom said pinching the bridge of her nose, She does have a point, I'm not at a normal level of strenngth for kid my age, so that does leave a level of concern for the my appointment
"Yeah, but his awakened too so it's going to be fine"
My dad said, oh? Seriously? I didn't even notice, I have to get better at my sensing abilities, but back to that, when did he awaken? How much training does he have?
"Yes but Kein has three years of training, and that barely has one year l, it's just not fair"
My mom said, again she does have a point about not being fair, but for a normal kid to awaken at such a young age he must be naturally talented in MANA usage
"If it makes you feel any better, I'll only use enhancement on two parts at a time"
I said, it still might be unfair but come on I want to win with a little bit of style
"Alright fine, but only use as much force as you have to"
"Yeah, but also win ok?"
My parents said, mom sounded a bit unsure but my dad sounded completely confident, I guess my dad really does care what people think of huh?
Then the door to our room opened and Sebastian walked in with Mio, then Mio ran up to me grabbed my shoulders and started shaking me
"what do you think you're doing fighting Arnold?"
"If—you—stop---shaking---me—I'll----tell—you"
I manage to say through all the shaking, the she stopped shaking and looked at me with a concerned face
"honestly I have nothing, I feel like fighting him"
I said, she just looked at me in shock, Sebastian than clapped his hands to get my and Mio's attention
"It is time to get ready for the duel"
Said Sebastian, really? They are calling it a duel? This is just family rivalry, Sebastian continued
"Mio please take Sir Kein to the ring area, and Sir Kelvis and miss Artoria please come with me to the viewing area"
Then Mio grabbed my hand and we exited the room and went down to the hallway to the stairs climb down the stairs and turned left and walked past all the rooms we visited earlier today and got to a door
"walk out this door and you'll see the ring area, I have to go to the viewing area"
"ok"
"be careful ok?"
"I'll try"
Then I opened the door and walked out, there it was the ring area it was just a concrete square I think twenty meters each side, and it was in a middle of field of grass, a s from the door was a concrete path that led to it
I started walking down the path the the area, as I was walking I saw Arnold reach the area, I flowed some MANA into my eyes and focused on him, after a second I could see his aura it wasn't much weaker than mine , but unlike mine that didn't have a color, his was red
I reached the ring area I look around and to the left of the ring a few meters away there were stands and sitting in the stands were my parents Samuel and the three old men then I turned to Arnold
"You done looking around?"
Arnold asked me with a cocky expression, man who does he think he is? Then he continued
"I going to show you what an Arianiti can do"
"Seriously? You know I'm an Arianiti to right? My dad is literally brothers with yours, are you stupid or something?"
After I said that I could see his expression change from cocky to angry, that little chab got him pissed? Wonder how far I can push him then he spoke again
"Sebastian start the match, I wanna beat this guy"
"uhhhhhhh scaaaary, bring it on"
Then Sebastian who was standing at the side of the ring raised his hand up, me and Arnold both got into a fight stance, the Sebastian snapped his hand downward
"FIGHT!!!"
Then Arnold charged at me full speed, I guess he wants a quick victory, to bad he isn't getting one, he began to throw punches at me Enhanced with MANA, not at my level but just one below, but I flowed MANA to my legs and began just dodging all he blows with my hands in my pocket
"Weren't you going to show what a Arianiti can do? Since apparently I'm not one?"
"just stay still and I'll show"
And so I did, I stood still in front of him he obviously to hold of the opportunity and threw a punch at my face, but to his displeasure at focused all my MANA at my head, and when the punch hit I didn't move a millimeter, he looked perplexed, but I just grabbed his right hand with my left
"It that it? Is that all you could muster? And I even stood still"
Then I pulled him by his right hand with my left and punched him right 8n the stomach, I felt go of his hand and he g pushed back about a half a meter, I got to give him credit though his defend the area of impact with MANA then I walked up to him and looked down at him
"if you fight with just MANA enhancement you won't beat"
"Then I'll just use THIS!!!"
The lifted his right hand palmed toward me and light up on fire and It blasted at me, but in that split second I put both my arms in front of my face and then I focused all my MANA I my upper body which projected my face but caused me to be blown back by about a meter
After a got back my footing I lowered my arms, as I lowered them I noticed the sleeves of my shirt were burnt, man I really liked this shirt fuck it I'm going serious, I turned my head to my parents a d my dad gave me thumbs up, then I turned to Arnold and smiled
"are you smiled to hide your fear?"
"Ohhh you'll see why I'm smiling"
Then I breathe out and focused my sense into my MANA core and I flowed MANA to through out all my body, but it wasn't like before this was like a river that went all around my body
"Know your PLACE!!!"
The he threw a fire ball at me, as it was coming I saw the look on his ut was one of pure arrogance, you're going to regret making that face, then stuck out my right arm and bitch slapped the fire ball to the right side
The look on his face was priceless, I love how the look of arrogance just turned into a look of shock with a hint of fear mix in
"again, Is that it?"
And then it turned to panic, as I start walking toward him he just starts shooting fire balls, just for them to be slapped away like bugs, he stopped he panic shooting when I reached him, he started to fall backwards but I grabbed him by his shirt and held him up, and looked invisible eyes
"5-----4-------3--------2------"
"I give up"
Then droppe him on to the ground
"Kein wins"
