Michael stood still while looking around, he was currently surrounded by a group of 5.
"So why have you stopped me?" Michael asked lazily while his sword layed on his right shoulder.
He had come here for the dungeon here, but as soon as he arrived this group stopped him.
"I didn't expect that our first fish was alone, where's the rest of your team little fishy?" A blonde boy said as played with his daggers.
"Stay alert his team must be hiding somewhere around here." A women in a robe holding a staff said as she looked around.
"Oh we got nothing too worry about." Another said as he pointed his spear at Michael.
"No don't let your guard down." A boy said as he pointed his sword in front of him while getting read to block with his shield.
The last person had some sort of support class as they where standing behind them.
Michael watched on in interest, not taking them seriously at all.
"Hand over all your food and valuables!" Hearing what they wanted was to steal from Michael lost all interest in them.
Michael put away his sword and started walking towards them.
"What do you think your doing?" Seeing Michael advance the group of five became nervous.
"Well I'm here for that dungeon behind you, and I'm here to clear it, so I would recommend that you give scurry away somewhere as I don't want to waste my time on you." Michael said his tone relaxed as he advanced.
"Take take him down!" With that four of them rran forwards to attack while the last prepared to support them.
"Sigh, why do you have too make it so hard on yourselfs?" Michael asked right as their tank reached him.
The tank slashed forwards towards Michael without any hesitation, while at the same time keeping his large sheild in front of him to block any attack.
Michael used this shifting himself into the blind spot created by the sheild before kicking the back of the shin.
Sending pain throughout the tanks leg, that caused him to lose strength in his leg.
Using this Michael two hit comboed him with a punch too the stomach which made him lean forwards opening his head, which Michael used to send a quick kick to the jaw knocking out the tank.
All it took was three attacks for him to take out the tank which shocked the on watching parents and teachers.
But he wasn't done as the others still continued with their atack.
A flash of magic flew past Michael as he took a step to the side where the the tank was standing.
"Tsk magic, after this I'm going to have to look for skill or techniques against it." Michael muttered to himself as he suddenly leaped forwards towards the spear user closing the distance.
Which caused them to panic and send forth a series of sloppy stapes.
But to Michael it wasn't much of a challenge to use his hand too push away the spear.
Till the spear user used all their strength in a single stab which Michael used as the spear user had over extended himself.
So Michael grabbed the spear before pulling it with a large amount of strength, pulling it's user of his balance.
Michael followed up with a uppercut to the chin then a round house Rick to the side of his head, which push the spearman as he lost consciousness.
Michael all of the sudden lost his leisure lazy attitude as he rolled forwards before pushing himself into the air before landing on his feet.
Turning around he saw his suprise attacker, standing right where he was before.
"Huh? Now that was a surprise, if I was any slower than you would have cut me there." Michael smiled as he patted his helmet.
"Tsk stand still!" She yelled, leaning forwards as she ran at Michael while brandishing her twin daggers.
Michael stood in a nonchalant stance as she got closer, she slashed forwards with both daggers.
Only to be dodged as Michael side stepped her while spinning around, and leaning to the side as a spell flew past him.
"Stand still! Give me some Buffs!" She continued to slash and stab, while their support applied buffs on her.
Increasing her speed and strength slightly. Michael smiled before taunting her.
"Is this the best you guys can do?" She gritted her teeth before using her skills.
{ Dagger Barrage }
Her speed further increased as her dagger bearly glowed with mana.
"Fine I'll show you some skills." Michael smiled before his stance changed as he entered a martial art stance, separating his feet as he raised his arms into a lose guard.
"Ha I got you!" She yelled as her eyes glowed with anger before attacking with her daggers.
Michael's face no longer care free turned cold as he used the back of his hand and palms to deflect her attacks by either hitting her hands or the side of the blades on her daggers.
Using his superior strength, experience and technique to deflect her attacks before using one of her many openings to knock her arms out of the way.
She panicked as pain shot through her arms, her eyes widened as Michael took a hard step forwards, as he pushed down creating a powerful force.
That traveled up his leg into his twisted back, into his pulled back shoulder.
Like a arrow shot by a bow, his first fist shot forwards towards her defenseless stomach.
"Bang" "Ahh" Her mouth opened in pain as she coughed out spit, she felt Michael's knuckles push into her as she was pushed 10 centimetres off the ground.
She felt her vision fade as she collapsed, falling unconscious.
Michael just brushed his hands before turning too the panicking Magic users.
"Yell I guess it's just you two left." Michael sent shivers down their spines.
The mage without any protection wasn't able to muster much resistance, the support was even easier.
Now it isn't that magic and support classes can't do anything without protection, it's just that these two much like every else don't have many abilities or spells.
Not to mention that movement and defensive spells are hard and rare, meanwhile skills at this level are weak without much effect.
So don't think that mages and support classes are weak, in fact some of the strongest defence and movement abilities (skills/spells).
Like the spell Blink that allows the user to teleport short distances, or Magic Shield that creates a sheild that blocks both physical and magic attacks for the caster.
It's just that these two didn't have enough time to learn any defence or movement abilities.
Back to the present Michael began looting them, but not for valuables, no.
He took their food... Well only half their food and water while a stupid happy smile overtook his face and a cheerful mood filled him.
Meanwhile back in the city parents, teachers and guests were shocked, the teachers and principal stood up, not believing what they saw.
"He took them all down by himself..." The Principal muttered in disbelief.
"He never showed this level of martial arts before..." The school martial arts teacher said not understanding why Michael hadn't used such skill before.
The staff couldn't help but talk amongst themselves, as what Michael did was just too impressive for a student too do.
Violet couldn't help the corner of her lips curl up, it wasn't a surprise too her that Michael dominated these students without even using his weapons.
Even when Michael started learning martial arts and training, he was always considered a prodigy.
His ability to easily pick up techniques or battle experience or comfortably use a sword or shield.
This combined with the fact that his boby was literally perfect for both speed and strength, even through his muscles were large it still incredibly didn't affect his flexibility or speed.
Where's Victor had a swimmers physique with little fat, muscles that were just hidden beneath his clothes, Victor's body was built for speed and quick explosive power and stamina.
Michael strength was far stronger than Victor with his only negative being that because of this his large energy usage his stamina even though large was quickly drained.
And he needs to consume a lot more food but luckily for Michael and everyone else who needs extra energy, there is monster meat and magic plants that hold a lot more nutrition.
If Victor and Michael were to have fight only using martial arts, then 99% of the time Michael wins, even though Victor is slightly faster and flexible, along with having more stamina.
It still doesn't allow Victor to breach the gape between them, in fact there hasn't been someone as talented as Michael in the Knight family for a long time.
Both Victor and Michael are two sides of the same coin, Michael was born with a body and mind perfect for battle, and shouldn't be judged as stupid for even a second.
Even if he purposely acts that way, as even though he's lazy and layed back, when he gets serious that's when his true self shows.
Where Victor used to be a happy layed back kid, that not many could keep up with interms of learning or intelligence, that made him playful and layed back much like Michael is now.
But on that day many years ago because of that... He changed turning himself into someone who gives it all, and can no longer feel emotion as easily.
But even still Victor is equally if not more talented at magic, comprehension and understanding than Michael's own talent, especially considering that Michael's magic talent is just above average.
But even still they both perfectly complement each other and cover each other's weakness.
"What level is he?" The Principal couldn't help but ask, thinking that Michael must have a far higher level in order to take out a perfect party of five.
"Umm I..." The teacher on the side checked but was left speachless.
"Come on spit it out!" The Principal impatient pressured her to answer.
"Y-Yes, umm he is level... Level 9 sir...."
