The lunch area of Elite H.
"Excuse me, can you move aside? I came here first."
A young man from the Martial arts department asked Viktor to move from the small balcony. He was sitting on the edge of the 25th-floor balcony.
Viktor looked behind and saw a blonde-haired man with his lunch tray in both hands.
"Don't mind me." He again looked in the direction he was looking at.
"Um, I said that I came here first. Are you going to disobey the words of a noble? My father isn't going to like this."
Viktor immediately cast a mind manipulation spell on him and made him forget about the conversation he just had. The blonde-haired man walked back and never came back again.
"Hah.. Rae, can you not use your fairy appearance inside the college? And Welis, don't walk around the shadow. Someone might see you."
Both of them came out of nowhere and said, "That spell was really powerful. Why did you use it on a normal human?" Rae asked.
"Because I am tired of causing useless problems. Plus, he's from a noble family. So I don't want to get involved with someone like him again."
Welis took away the cigarette that Viktor was smoking and said, "It's a no-smoking area. Can't you see the sign?"
Viktor cast a water vapour spell around his hand and face to clean up the smell then said, "Nobody saw me smoking. It was under my invisibility spell."
"Don't use magic on everything. You'll forget how to do simple things one day. And let's go right now. Our practice class is in 10 minutes. The teachers are going to rank us by the way we control our mana and strength."
Viktor took a deep breath and said, "Hah. Let's go then. And don't pull my cigarette from my mouth again."
Welis immediately knew she did something very wrong so she apologised and walked quietly behind his back. She was terrified to see his eyes and his soft murderous smile. He was not happy with her too-friendly actions towards him.
Even though Viktor seems like a young friendly guy who loves talking with people, he can change into a different person if something goes out of his will.
Everything around him will be good until someone crosses the boundary, disrupts his personal times and goes against his personal opinions. He will not express it with anything but his sharp murderous smile that a normal human can't pick up. It's a type of murderous intent that only a guardian can release and only a guardian can feel it.
It's so powerful that if a human gets in the middle of it, their mana core will go wild and it will trigger self-destruction. A normal human with no mana will just drop on the floor because he will die within a second.
But not every guardian can ooze this kind of killing intent. It's a sign of nobility and superiority among all the guardians and only the first generation can do this.
But Viktor giving off the killing intent made Welis traumatized.
Maybe I went too far.
So he put her hand around her shoulder and said, "Don't worry. I won't do anything to you. I promise."
"O…ok."
I only used 1% of that killing intent because he's inside a new body. But I didn't think this would traumatise her. I better stop using this on normal people.
Rae just saw the whole thing going in front of his eyes and acted as if he saw nothing. He didn't want his friendship to end on bad terms with him. So he said, "Why the long face, guys? Let's go to the classroom now. The teacher is going to be there soon."
Viktor laughed a little and said, "Hahah. Alright then. Let's see who ranks the lowest."
Rae looked at him with the dumbest expression and asked, "Why lowest?"
"Eh?"
"Huh?"
The three of them looked at each other's faces.
What are they trying to do? Be the king of this world-_-?
"Do whatever you want. I'll just go sit in the corner."
…
The physical training room was situated in the middle of a big field beside the building. It was big enough to fit 500 people at once but only a class full of people use this when they are training. So that means, only 30-40 people use the training field when they are practising martial arts.
Viktor had only 36 people in his class so it wasn't easy to hide. Everyone was noticing him walking with the queen of class 'Welis' under his shoulder.
Someone also thought that they were dating so he made tons of enemies at one glance. But when Baek Suk said that they were cousins, everyone felt relieved.
At that moment, a muscular man came in with his long cane and stomped it on the floor. It made a loud sound that attracted everyone's attention throughout the training ground.
"I am Euin Kim. Your new instructor for the physical training class. I am already guessing that you are all well-trained from your family but today, I will rank you by measuring your strength and weaponry controls. But this year, I've noticed some ignorant punk who has taken their weapon as a plaything. I will call their name one by one and you will demonstrate the technique. Moreover, you'll be sparing with me. If I say that you don't deserve it, you will be obligated to change your weapon today."
Viktor looked to his left side and saw the girl who chose a gun biting her nails. She was scared because she wasn't a close combat hybrid.
Viktor took a glance at her record and saw nothing but ego and overconfidence.
Man, she's dead… I thought she'd be a good gun user based on her princess-like appearance. But I guess I was so wrong. Guns are just an advanced form of archery. If you don't know how to fight with a gun in close combat too, you're dead on the battlefield.
The teacher swiped his finger on his IPad and said, "Oliver Hunter, please step forward."
Oliver slowly stepped forward and walked closer to the instructor. She was shaking, but her ego made her look straight into his eyes with pride.
"Oliver Hunter, you selected a gun as your first weapon which is supposed to be a helper weapon. Why is that?" The instructor asked.
"Sir, I am trained with a gun with my mana and I can take down my opponent without any problem."
"Then come at me, I will show you what a real fight looks like."
Oliver took out her H. drive and turned it on. Her mana came out of her hand and the small device turned into a small handgun. She infused the bullies with her mana and quickly fired at the instructor. But who knew the instructor would catch them with his bare hands?
"I used only a small portion of my mana to stop 5 of your bullets. How, how about a hand-on-hand fight?"
She hesitated to move first because she never trained her body to fight in close combat. But her ego made her move her twig-like legs and threw a punch at the instructor's face.
"What is this?" The instructor asked.
In a second, her world became upside down and she kissed the floor. She was down.
"Please show her the path to the infirmary. We will contact her parents and question them about this matter. Next, Viktor E. North. Please come forward."
Viktor, who was busy playing games, suddenly strutted after hearing his name and looked at the front. The instructor was asking for him.
Why me first…
He put his phone back in his pocket and took out his H.drive. He stopped 10 feet away from the instructor and said, "If I can slice that cane, can I keep my weapon?"
The instructor laughed and said, "It's the first time in history to see someone asking for a scythe to be his main weapon. Yes, of course. This is called black steel, the toughest material on earth. Even a mana-covered sword can't cut it. Well, I will give you a chance. If you can make a small scratch on it, you can keep your weapon."
Did he just insult me? There's no way I will walk away after getting insulted by a kid. Even though I didn't have any intention of becoming the top, his ignorant act made my blood boil.
Viktor turned in his H.drive and it turned into a white shiny scythe. Its sharp long curved blade and its cane with a dark moon design caught everyone's attention. The silver hair perfectly matched with the colour of it.
He held the middle of the cane and began to spin it around his body while taking a step to another step forward.
The wind created by the scythe blew his hair and in a blink of an eye, he vanished and again appeared behind the instructor.
His came crumbled into small glass cutting edge pieces.
Viktor, who was sitting on his scythe's tip by balancing on its cane, took out his phone and started playing a game.
Everyone was shocked by his movement because none of them saw what exactly happened. They only saw the cane broken into pieces and then saw Viktor balancing on his scythe on one leg and playing games.
The instructor looked down and saw his six-month salary bid him goodbye and then saw Viktor balancing on his scythe without any mana.
"W..what did you do?"
"I broke your cane. So I get to keep this weapon as my main weapon. Do you have any objections?"
"N..no. Viktor E. North will keep his scythe as his main weapon."
"Then, I'll step aside. You have two more to examine. I'll take my seat."
He stood on his scythe on one leg and then jumped on the floor. His weapon turned back to a small steel handle so he put it back in his pocket.
"You are a show stealer." Rae smiled and patted Viktor's shoulder.
"Yeah, whatever. Don't kill the instructor."
"Heheh. I won't, don't worry."
Their casual conversation made everyone understand how powerful those three were and why they didn't choose any normal weapons.
They were from the family of a free hybrid that gives birth to rare talents.
Of course, it was all fake but to everyone's eyes, they were monsters.
