" What the- "
" Urck!... "
Black smoke mixed with violet lighting like they were veins or rivers going across the smoke, escaped my body.
" Oh? " Unbeknownst to Mon, Griza looks at him with a cunning smile.
Well, it's not only Griza who was paying attention to the fight below. Mon garnered almost all of the attention of Sense's higher-ups.
Though they were all filled with different reactions, whether they thought it was good, interesting, or bad there was one thing they were sure of. This is the first time, someone who was destined to have no ability, performed a miracle.
Mon knew he would have to face more hardships the moment he showed off his ability, but he wasn't scared of a challenge. This was a chance and almost a dream for the empty guy. Showing off was rooted to his core. Acting that has been a part of the entire half of his life and the desire to be a part of the story he so loved, wasn't something he could just forget.
" Urgh... you.... fu- " The weak-looking man fell to his knees as he stares at Mon, who went from the average weakling to someone terrifying.
" What? Cat got your tongue? "
" Yo.u... " He tried to speak up, but this ability had the strongest backing from my stats.
' Charm: S+ '
With his rank, as much as he tried, he wouldn't have been able to escape this ability as long as I had energy.
Though, the big dude wasn't the same. He was having problems standing up straight, but moving was just a small inconvenience to him. His hands started glowing red as he decided to punch the hard floor in annoyance.
I mean I did expect this factor, as I knew my ability was more of a support skill rather than an offensive one, so if my ability didn't affect my opponent, I would be a sitting duck.
" You dare do this to my brother?! " he grunts with a deep and husky voice.
Well I guess, I know his ability now.
He has his hands through the hard floor like it was some soft marshmallow.
Though his strength was indeed remarkable. There was still a factor that affects the outcome of this match.
That abysmal speed of his.
Speed: F+
So with that being said. There was a way in getting the upper hand here. It's by abusing this shitty system.
Speed has been promoted from E+ to D-
A notification popped up in front of my face as I use the voucher I received from the second quest reward.
" Yo...u You! " Well, it seems like that's how far my ability would go against that guy.
Jon shouts as he stares at me in rage.
Well, I couldn't fucking care less.
" HAHAHA, that was a fucking surprise..." The frail kid who was on his knees started to speak again as my ability started to grow weaker. " Who would've thought? The Wanderer kid could release such a terrifying presence. " He laughs again like he has a few loose screws.
" I'll remove that smug face of yours... " Jon whispers as the veins on his arms started to pump.
...
" Hah. Like you're fast enough for that. " I say as I dashed forward rushing toward the brothers.
!
Jon steps up as he tries to reach me all while guarding his frail brother.
" You won't become a guardian with that skill. " I say as I stood next to his brother grabbing his face with my palms.
" Ho... How... "
" You should be a speaker you know. You motivated me to plant your face on the ground too much. "
" N... NO! " Jon shouts as he looks at me in despair and starts sprinting towards me.
Here comes the bull...
Slow, but it didn't take too long as he was close to his brother in the first place.
Just where I want him to be. He swings his fist though lightly as he seemed quite afraid to hit his frail brother.
I shifted my body lightly to the side easily dodging his punch. Damn, that change from E to D was such a massive difference.
" Fall " I whispered activating my ability again. I was tired so I only did a small tick, but it was enough for me to achieve the upper hand.
" Urgh!.. " He flinches slightly causing me to find an opening on the big guy in front of me.
" Good night. " I whisper slightly.
" Let me show you how the normal people, or in your words wanderers, optimized combat against people. " I said as I perform an armbar on him.
" Argh! " Jon grunts as he tries to strengthen the caught arm.
" I wouldn't do that If I were you.. As it ca- "
* Crack *
" ARGHHHH!! " he screams in pain as he dislocates his arm from his body.
" I wouldn't plant your brother's face on the ground like that. What if I break your brother's face? Who would want to marry him then? But I'm sure such a nice brother like you would do it for him. " I grabbed Jon's face head and immediately shoved it on the ground.
...
" Woah... did a Wanderer just... "
" He has an ability? "
" What was that move he did? "
...
" Are you guys done... " The voice of an old man enters my ears.
...
" Do you think this was a place where you could just do anything you want? "
... Tsk...
" Oh shit... It's the president. "
" They're dead. "
Griza shows up behind us as he approaches us slowly with an angered face. I know you're entertained old man.
...
Hah... Though it's not like I would gain anything by confronting this guy right now.
" Who said you could do this on my campus? And break a classmate's arm at that matter... "
Then why didn't you stop us earlier when they were about to do that to me?
Tsk... I guess I should entertain this guy.
" I'm sorry sir Griza. They were threatening me and were saying Sense was an idiot. "
" What?! "
" They dare? "
The surrounding students suddenly erupted in disbelief as questioning Sense's authority was one of the most prohibited gestures in the academy.
" They questioned your authority as the best academy for Guardians, saying how did a useless Wanderer enter this school. They said it was severe nepotism and corruption on your end. "
...
I stare at the emotionless face of Griza. There was only one way to face these types of people. You have to show ability and skill in their own fields.
Though, it's giving me the nerves, as the S-rank peak human stands in front of me.
" Yeah, sir Griza! I saw them punch him first even when he apologized for bumping them. "
" Yeah, yeah! it was just a bump but they socked him straight in the stomach. "
The students surrounding us started to vouch for me as they look at the situation.
I guess high levels of charms are quite useful.
" Hmmm... I see. In that case, I'll let you off with a warning. Though I wouldn't say the same for these two. " Griza leaves, leaving the two brothers on the floor.
Let me off my ass... I'm sure I'll be seeing your face for quite a long time.
