Anon is sitting on the last bench as always, with Eve beside him.
"Where is she?" Anon asked Eve.
"Who?" Eve asked.
"Elena. The girl that I was asking you about," Anon explained.
"Oh, there... Fifth bench from the front. She is sitting at the 3rd position from the left," Eve pointed.
Anon looked at her and noticed a girl with long blue hair sitting at the location Eve was pointing at.
"Mr. Jule will give me the answer to this question," Richard said as he looked at Anon.
"Hmmm.... Same hair as your mother, huh?" Anon said as he observed her and completely ignored Richard.
[Name: Elena.]
[Race: Elf]
[Class: Archer]
[Level: 65]
[Description: She wants to focus on studies and become like her mother.]
"Mr. Jule, I am calling you?"
"Hehe... Level 68. Most of my spells will work on her," Anon said, a smile appearing on his face, but he still ignored Richard.
"Okay, that's it. You paid the fees, but that doesn't mean you can ignore me," Richard snapped and threw the chalk towards Anon with all his power.
"What? The chalk is floating in the air?"
"Look, Mr. Richard's chalk didn't hit him."
"How did he do that?"
The students started talking about this, but Anon immediately looked at the attacker who threw the chalk at him.
Anon stared at Richard with a very serious expression.
"Now you're looking at me, huh?" Richard spoke as he looked at Anon.
Anon immediately threw the chalk back at him with double speed.
Boom
Richard barely dodged the chalk, but when he looked back, he noticed that the chalk had gone into the blackboard.
"What the-? How can he do this?" Richard wondered as he murmured in a low tone.
"Why did you attack me?" Anon asked as he stood up from his place.
"W-What? I-I didn't attack you. I just threw a chalk at you because you weren't paying enough attention in class, and you used magic in class without my permission. You are done for," Richard said as he looked at Anon with a smile.
"No, I was forced to use magic when you ambushed me with your attack. Why did you ambush me?" Anon asked with a serious face.
"Well, he's saying the right thing."
"Yes, the teacher attacked him first."
"I agree, Mr. Richard attacked him first."
The students immediately started discussing this matter.
"Are you saying that it was my mistake that you had to use magic?" Richard questioned.
"Yes..."
"You could've just taken the hit or focused on the lecture in the first place," Richard spoke.
"First of all, I study in the best academy of the elven kingdom, and you think as an honorary student of this academy, I don't even have any reflexes for danger? Obviously, I will use magic in self-defense as the first reflex. You are a teacher and an adult; you should know that," Anon spoke.
"Second, I was paying attention to the lecture. Who says that I'm not paying attention?" Anon asked.
"I say, I saw you laughing while you were looking somewhere else," Richard spoke.
"What proof do you have?" Anon asked immediately.
"Woah, brother is scaring the teacher."
"Mr. Richard got scared of a child?"
"Haha... He knows how to use his words."
Everyone started laughing as they noticed Richard's helpless condition.
"Okay, you want proof, huh?" Richard asked.
"Yes," Anon replied.
"Well, if you were paying attention in the class... What is the topic that we are studying today?" Richard asked.
'Oh, fuck. I wasn't paying attention... Okay, there are so many calculations on the board. Maybe magic math? No, I don't think that's even a subject.
Shit! It's me vs. him.' Anon thought as he tried to figure out what Richard was teaching.
[Multiple Casting of opposite affinity spells, master.] Link spoke up.
'How do you know?' Anon asked.
[I have been studying everything in this class... I know that this will help you pass the exam, but everything he taught until now is old knowledge to me. I don't think he has something new to teach.] Link explained.
'Nice one, Link.'
"You're teaching Multiple Casting of opposite affinity spells," Anon replied.
Suddenly Richard's jaw dropped. He looked at the board and tried to find out if he had written today's topic anywhere on it.
"T-That's correct," Richard spoke in a very low voice.
"Can I sit now?" Anon asked.
"No, tell me the answer to this equation right here," Richard asked as he pointed to a half-solved equation.
'Link?'
[That would be 20 seconds, master.]
"The answer is 20 seconds," Anon answered.
"Hahaha... Got you. This equation has never been solved until now... Even the best magicians couldn't solve it from here.
It proves that you're not paying attention to the question," Richard spoke as he laughed at Anon.
'Link, are you sure that's the answer?'
[I am 100% sure, master. One of my intelligent friends in the past showed me the same problem. We solved it for the next 200 years, and only then we found its answer: it was 20 seconds.] Link spoke with confidence.
'If you're confident, then this fucker is gone now.'
"The answer is 20," Anon repeated.
"Huh? Did you not hear me? No one was able to-"
"I did, and the answer is 20 seconds," Anon cut him off.
Everyone fell silent and just looked at Anon and Mr. Richard.
"C-Can you prove it?" Richard asked.
'Link, can you?'
[I can, master.] Link replied.
"I can," Anon replied.
"Then do it." Richard called Anon as he summoned another chalk in his hands.
Anon walked up to the front and took the chalk from him, starting to write something on the board.
In just 1 minute, Anon solved an equation that no one had been able to solve for decades.
Richard was speechless... The whole class was speechless.
"This is impossible... This can't be happening right now." Richard spoke as he looked at the board.
"H-How did you prove it?" Richard asked with a surprised expression.
"That's for you to find out," Anon said as he turned around and started walking back to his seat.
As he turned back, the first person he saw was Elena. Her body was medium-sized, and her face was beautiful, just like her mother's.
She had a cold demeanor and sharp eyes.
Elena also looked at Anon, and both of their eyes met each other. Anon didn't miss the opportunity; he immediately winked at her and gave her a small smile.
After that, he went back to his seat and sat down.
"Hmm...? Was he winking at me?" Elena said as she started looking toward the board.
"Very well... Today's lecture is over. I will meet you guys after the hunt festival now. Have a good holiday... Bye," Richard said as he exited the class.
"Uhmmm... Can I sit here...?" A girl asked Anon as she came back to the last bench.
She had red hair, red eyes, a good body build, and short pointy ears.
"Hmm...? Who are you?" Anon asked.
"I am a big fan of yours, my name is Deris. I see you every day; you're like the bad boy of the class, and I thought if I could sit with you?" She asked.
"Oi Deris, sitting with him won't change your reality," a guy shouted from the front.
"Yeah, a half-breed like you will always remain a half-breed."
"Ahaha... Don't listen to them. My mother had some genetic problems, that's why I was born this way. I am not a half-breed," she spoke.
"You are lying," Anon spoke up.
"Huh?"
"Your eyes are moving too much. It means you are lying to me. If you want to lie and make it sound like the truth... You have to say it while looking directly into my eyes," Anon spoke with a smile.
"So, that means you will not let me sit here, right?" Deris asked.
"You can—"
"You don't even deserve to be in this class... Half-breed." Before Anon could finish his sentence, another guy shouted and threw a thick wooden ruler toward Deris.
Anon threw back the ruler with double speed at the same guy who threw it.
Bonk
"Ouch!"
"You can sit," Anon spoke as he slid a bit to the right.
"That was cool," Deris said as she laughed at the guy.
"Oi, Jule. You can't use magic like that in the class," a guy with a very big body build stood up and spoke. This guy was none other than Oxmaul himself.
The big bully of the class... Oxmaul the dark elf. His father has many companies in this kingdom, and he is one of the richest nobles around.
No one tries to mess with him because everyone is afraid that his father will destroy their family, except one guy.
"Oh, what are you going to do about it? Go back home and cry about it to your mother?" Anon spoke up.
"Hahahhahahhaha..."
"Hehehe... He destroyed Oxmaul for the second time."
"Brother knows how to mess with people with his talk alone."
All the dark elves in the class started laughing at Oxmaul.
"A-Are you making fun of me?" Oxmaul asked with an angry expression.
"If you can't understand that... Then you're stupid, simple as that," Anon replied calmly.
"Oiiii, don't challenge me." Oxmaul jumped out of his bench and walked toward Anon.
Anon also stood up and walked toward him.
Both of them stood in front of each other, their faces very close to each other.
While Oxmaul was filled with anger, a very big smile was sticking on Anon's face.
"Don't you know who my father is?" Oxmaul asked.
"Why are you getting angry? It's not my fault that your mother never told you who your father is," Anon spoke as the smile widened.
Everyone started laughing even more loudly at Oxmaul.
Oxmaul's face turned red in anger. He took off his left hand's glove and threw it at Anon.
"I, Oxmaul Paradise, challenge you to a Duel in the Immortal Ring." Oxmaul spoke.
"Whoa... An Immortal Ring challenge?"
"What the hell? Did he just challenge him to an Immortal Ring match?"
"Jule, I think that's enough for today. We should go back and sit down." Eve spoke as she grabbed Anon's left hand.
"Yeah, Madam Eve is right. We should let it go. He is Oxmaul." Deris spoke as she grabbed his right hand.
"No, no..." Anon said as he removed his shoes and took off his socks.
He threw the sock at Oxmaul's face and spoke, "Challenge accepted."
Everyone inside the class fell silent as they observed what Anon just did.
"Did he just throw his sock at Oxmaul's face?"
"Why would he do that?"
"I don't know."
"Uhmmm.... Why would you throw your sock at him, Jule?" Eve asked.
"Well, I accepted the duel. So I have to throw a piece of my cloth at him as well, right?" Anon asked as he looked at Eve.
"No, you idiot. If you want to accept the duel, you have to give your glove to the opponent," Deris explained.
"Oh... But I don't have any gloves?" Anon spoke.
"Here... Take mine." Eve said as she gave him her glove.
"I accept," Anon said as he threw the glove too.
"Very well... Come to the Immortal Ground in one hour. I will meet you there," Oxmaul said as he immediately left the room after that.
"Yeah, I'll be there, Mr. Ox," Anon said as he saw him leave the room.
Suddenly, a teacher entered the room. He had green hair and green eyes.
"Are you Jule?" He asked as he directly looked at Jule.
"Yes," Anon replied.
"Good. Here, you have to sign this before fighting in the Immortal Ground." The green-haired teacher spoke as he gave Anon a form.
There were words written at the top of the form. Anon read them out loud, "No Life Guarantee Form."
Eve, Deris, and Anon... The three of them are sitting on the last bench of the class.
Eve and Deris are talking about something really important while Anon is casually sleeping while the teacher is still teaching.
"Jule, wake up," Eve said as she touched Anon.
"Hmm...? What? Which girl is getting naked? Oh, Eve. What happened?" Anon said as he woke up from his sleep.
"You are sleeping? How can you even sleep after Oxmaul just challenged you to an Immortal Ground Duel? Don't you have any questions about it?" Eve asked.
"Yeah, I do have one question," Anon spoke.
"What? Ask me... I will answer it," Eve spoke as she looked at Anon.
"What is an Immortal Ground Duel?" Anon asked, and both of them just looked at him with a still expression.
"Y-You are kidding, right?" Deris asked.
"No, I am really asking. What is that?" Anon asked.
"If you don't know what an Immortal Ground Duel is, then why would you say yes to Oxmaul's proposal?" Eve asked with a confused expression.
"Well, he threw his glove at my face. That's one reason, and the other reason is... No, there is no other reason," Anon spoke as he looked at Eve.
"Fuck...." Eve said as she grabbed her head with both of her hands.
"Wait, we have to tell him," Deris said.
"Okay, in an Immortal Ground Duel. You are allowed to do anything, literally anything. You can use anything you want inside the Immortal arena.
You can't die inside that arena... Every injury you sustain will be healed almost instantly.
So, to win this match, you either throw your opponent out of the arena or beat him down to shit until he accepts defeat himself.
The duel Challenger and the duel Accepter both will be given choices according to the duel.
They will put 12 cards in front of you guys.
There will be 6 blank cards on each side... You will be given the opportunity to flip a card when it's your turn.
If your card is not a blank card, then you can choose one condition for the match.
After the conditions of the match are settled... You guys will fight.
The first one to lose will have to follow one wish of the winner. That wish can be anything unless it's dangerous to the Loser's life.
You can ask anything you want from him, and he can also ask anything from you." Eve explained.
"So, I have some data that I want to share with you. Oxmaul has done over 12 Immortal arena matches in the past year, and he won every single one of them because of his one condition," Deris spoke.
"What is that?" Anon asked.
"Artifacts... He always chooses to use artifacts in the arena. That's the only condition he needs to win the match. His father is crazy rich, he buys expensive artifacts to defeat opponents in the ring, and after winning, he also gives them tasks that are impossible to complete.
Like, killing a 5-year-old slave or asking for the Loser's sister in return." Deris explained.
"Oh my, he is one psycho bastard, huh?" Anon said as he pretended to be surprised.
"He is the real psychopath, Jule. Why don't you just ask a teacher to cancel it? You will be saved," Eve suggested.
"Nope, I am going to fight him. If you admit defeat without even fighting, then that's just foolishness." Anon said as he went back to sleeping again.
"For one moment, I thought he was serious." Eve said as she grabbed her head and looked at Deris.
"You are a noble... Don't you have some artifacts that he can use?" Deris asked Eve.
"No, My house is very far from here. Even if I tried to go and get an artifact for him, it will be too late." Eve said as she looked at Deris.
"Bet, Bet, Bet... Who will win the Immortal Ground? Jule Or Oxmaul. Bet now and get 1.8x of your bet."
"Me... Me."
"Me too."
"Hey, I bet on Oxmaul."
"I will bet on Jule."
"Mine on Oxmaul."
Students started betting on their match.
Principal's room...
"Hmm...? What's all this noise in the classes?" She asked her assistant.
"Ma'am, the Oxmaul kid challenged another kid to duel him in the Immortal grounds." The assistant replied.
"That bastard... If only his father wasn't an upper noble." The principal said as she punched her table.
"Who did he challenge this time?" Principal asked.
"It's someone named Jule. His fees were due for the last three years until 5 days ago. He submitted a platinum coin as his advance fees." The assistant informed.
"Oh, how did a commoner guy like him get his hands on a platinum coin? Search for him deeper and arrange my chair near the arena; I will observe the match personally." The principal replied.
"Yes, ma'am." The assistant answered as she exited the room at once.
"Hmmm... Jule, huh? Let's see what kind of fool you are." The principal said as she also exited the room.
45 minutes later...
"Jule, it's time for the fight. Let's go," Eve woke up Anon.
"Hmmm.....? Yawn I feel refreshed. Let's go and beat the shit out of some dark elves." Anon murmured as he yawned loudly.
All three of them left the classroom and started walking toward the Immortal arena.
The Immortal arena was in the back of the academy.
As soon as they reached behind the academy... They noticed a very big crowd standing all around the ring and appreciating Oxmaul, who was dancing here and there inside the arena.
"Oi, Jule is here."
"Haha... My boy is here."
"Jule! Jule."
All of them started cheering for Anon.
"Calm down, everyone. The principal is coming..." Suddenly a teacher's voice came.
Everyone fell silent immediately as the principal approached the scene and took a seat near the ring.
"Why is the principal here?"
"I don't know. She never came to these things. What is special today?"
Students started chatting among themselves.
Anon and Oxmaul are standing inside the arena, facing each other... Where Oxmaul looks confident and angry, Anon looks calm and collected.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today we have gathered here to witness the great duel between the two young men of our academy.
The rules are simple: Anything goes inside the field, but the one to step out of it first will be declared the loser.
On the right side of the Arena, we have a 12-time winning champion... Who has never faced defeat in this arena: Oxmaul Paradise.
This guy just crushes everything in front of him... He doesn't care if it's a thing or a human.
On the left side of the academy, we have a student known as Jule. This guy has accepted Oxmaul's challenge of a duel. What do you think, can he defeat him in this battlefield? Because I don't think so.
But we never know where lady luck shines. Let's start this competition without any further ado.
The special guest of today's match is the Principal of the Academy itself, and I would like Principal Madam to say the word," the announcer announced loudly.
"May the god of winning bless you. Start," the principal announced.
Oxmaul immediately summoned a claw-type artifact in his hands and started running towards Anon with his full speed.
[Claws Of Phantom Tiger]
[Rank- A+]
[These claws are made from the bones of the phantom tiger. They are very sharp. They can cut through the strongest armors. Once worn, they also boost the host's Agility and Strength by 20%] [Mana: 50/Second]
As soon as he reached near Anon... He swung his hand at his face with full force, but before the claws could've reached his face, Anon disappeared from his position and appeared behind Oxmaul.
Without any wait, Anon summoned his sickles of death and pierced them right through Oxmaul's nape, killing him instantly.
"Oh no, as all of you can see... Anon scored the first point by killing Oxmaul." The announcer announced.
As soon as his body fell down on the floor... The barriers around the arena started shining and Oxmaul's body did too.
He got recovered and stood up again.
"You motherfucker..." Oxmaul spoke as he looked at Anon.
"Na... I didn't fuck your mother yet, or did I?" Anon spoke as he laughed at him.
"Die..." Oxmaul shouted as he ran towards him again, but this time he summoned a sword in his other hand.
"Oh, new weapon, huh...?" Anon spoke as a smile appeared on his face.
'This kid has potential... Why did I not see him until now? Stars like him always outshine the others. Where was he until now?' The principal thought as she observed Anon more closely.
Oxmaul's speed increased as he reached Anon even faster this time.
Anon noticed this but decided to ignore it.
As soon as Oxmaul reached near him, Anon disappeared again and reappeared behind him once more, but this time he didn't kill him with the sickles.
This time Anon grabbed his neck and turned it around 360°.
Crack
At this view, everyone closed their eyes for a second before looking at the arena again.
"Ohhh... That's evil. Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see... Anon has no mercy for his opponents. He just broke Oxmaul's neck without giving him a second to react." The commentator announced.
Thud
Oxmaul's body fell down on the ground and the barriers once again started shining, and so did his body.
He recovered again, but this time... As he was about to stand up.
Anon summoned his sickles and cut his neck down again.
"Huh?"
"Huh...?"
"What?"
"The hell?"
"Did he just?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, Anon didn't even let Oxmaul stand up this time. He just cut his neck down before he could even stand up." The announcer announced.
"Now I understand what that saying means: 'The best defense is the offense.'"
The barriers shined again, and Oxmaul recovered again, but before he could've done anything, Anon cut down his neck this time too.
For the next 30 minutes, the same process repeated over and over again...
Oxmaul tried to stand up, but Anon was waiting for him right there... With his sickles. He would cut off his neck whenever he recovered.
"H-Hey, he is not even giving him the chance to protect himself."
"This guy is a menace."
"What the fuck is wrong with him?"
"H-Hey... That's cheating."
Everyone started talking about this scene where Anon was just being a menace and cutting Oxmaul's neck like a chicken every time it grew back.
"T-This is making me sick bwaaaahhhh" a girl puked as she saw this scene again and again, but there was one guy who was enjoying this, and this guy was none other than Anon himself.
'Hahaha... What a fun game to play. I can do this all day. The more I kill, the more fun it becomes.'
'What a psychopath...?' The principal thought as a smile appeared on her face, and she decided to step in now.
This time when Oxmaul recovered from his injuries... The principal used a spell.
Suddenly, a hexagonal barrier covered Oxmaul's body and prevented Anon's sickles from killing him this time.
"Hmm...?" Anon immediately found out who was using this magic and looked at the principal.
'What? How did he find out that it was me?' The principal's eyes widened in surprise, and this time Oxmaul stood up.
But he was not the same Oxmaul as before... There was fear in his eyes.
He had seen death so many times that his soul was now crushed. He had no will to fight now. He had no intention of looking at Anon.
He was so scared that he just threw his artifacts on the ground and rushed towards the closest boundary of the Arena.
"I-I-I can't... He... A monster... Run." Oxmaul said as he ran towards the boundary with a very scared face.
He just wanted to quit and return back to his father and mother, but before he could've exited the boundary, a hand grabbed him from behind.
"Where are you going, princess? The fun is about to begin." Anon asked with a psychopathic smile.
