"You bastard!"
Huna Ama's mother, Huna Annie, shouted towards Herald.
"Annie, Stop!"
Seeing his wife running towards Herald wanting to slap him, Huna Marx, Stopped her.
Her husband wasn't as emotional as her as he knew who was behind the kid.
But he still glared at Herald.
Marx looked at one side of the audience.
In there, there was a huge man with his silver hair watching them without emotion from his eyes.
Beside him was a very pretty and mature woman, that just looked at them straight without doing anything.
Marx knew that these two are the parents of Herald as well as the current Patriarch of the Zenith Clan and his Wife,
Karma Zenith and Neiva Zenith!
Them just watching and doing nothing made Marx very anxious and afraid. He knew that these people were thinking about something and is waiting for him to do a bad move.
"Let's Go check on our daughter Annie!"
"Marx... Okay!"
Annie was reluctant to let this go but saw the vigilance in her husband's eyes and tacitly agreed with him.
Over the years of being together made the both of them have a great connection with each other.
The both of them walked hurriedly back but glared at Herald before doing so.
Herald just shrugged his shoulders at them.
Then he slowly glanced at the walking Muri back to his seat and frowned.
He shook his head and went down the arena.
Eiji and the others saw everything and some of his classmates even shouted in anger when they saw him still continuing the sword art even though Ama was already clearly defeated!
"What a bastard! I swear I'm gonna destroy his face when I face him!"
Renji, as hot blooded as ever said so.
The others agreed with him.
While his rival Newark was there also silently watching Herald with heaviness his eyes.
Herald being able to copy a sword art from a glance is monstrous enough, but it was his inch by inch dodges that bothered Newark.
He knew that if cant out run the Blood Sword of the other party, no one can ever defeat him!
Eiji didn't care about his classmates and just silently consoled Lime beside him.
Lime was always bullied by Herald in the clan and reason it with as sibling training.
So Lime watching Ama getting pummeled like that made her tremble and afraid as she looked down and nearly hid herself below the chairs.
Eiji sighed at this sight and then glanced at Herald who was already in his parents seat smiling as he talked to them.
Eiji glanced at Herald and his eyes sharpened!
*Swwoooosshhh!
*Baaannnggg!!!
When Eiji sharply glanced at Herald, he was met a silver eyes and a pressure so great his ears were ringing!
------
In the other side of the stadium.
"You did great my son! Here have some water!"
"Hahha! It was easy! Mother! If I get that full version of that Sword Art I believe I can master it quickly!"
"Hmm...."
Herald said this to his mother with hidden intentions. Them getting the sword art would mean they would have to go to war with the other clan.
But as the strongest clan, it would still create a huge impact in thir reputation if people knew that they destroyed a clan just to steal their sword arts.
In fact, they already have quite a lot of sword arts in their clan which they had plundered or taken and created in the clan.
But the stronger ones were kept a secret while the others were just not up to standard.
Flying Leaf Of The Willow Tree, is one of the strongest sword art created in the whole kingdom. Which was what made the Huna Clan stand beside the other huge clans even without having a Blood Sword Powers.
And taking something from such people would take a great and extensive effort.
He wasn't saying they couldn't do it but rather, it would be very bothersome!
*Swooshh!
Suddenly Karma who was at the side of the mother son pair, felt something prickly in his skin!
He reacted and his huge ki immediately traced this prickly feeling.
'hmm??? Interesting!'
When his ki reached the cause of that prickly feeling, he saw a kid from the students area glancing at them.
The kid had a black hair and still had a baby fat in his face, Karma found this interesting.
A normal looking kid beside his daughter actually made him feel prickly!
With his power, even the teachers in the school won't even be able to take a glance at him much less make him fell prickly!
Yet, a ten year old kid made him feel so!
*Swwwooooooosshhh!
*Baaannngg!!!!
Before He could observe Eiji more, Karma suddenly felt something dangerous and vanished from his seat backing away from it.
"Dad?!"
"Dear? What happened?!"
Neiva and Herald was shocked by the sudden movements of Karma.
The other people were also shocked.
The people from other clans also saw what happened and frowned.
They knew that something wasn't right. From Karma's movement just now was clearly a hurried retreat!
Making someone like Karma hurriedly retreat was something all of them need to be scared about!
"N- Nothing! I just remembered something in the clan to do but decided to just postpone it!"
"O-okay?! Come sit back!"
"Dad..."
Karma sat back to his seat.
Before he sat he saw a small chip in the backrest of his char.
He glanced that the source of that sharpness that he felt.
In his sight was a man in a baggy black Nagagi Robes. He was also glancing back at him while his head was supported by his left hand, slouching slightly in the table for the teachers.
' Takazawa..... Muri! '
Karma instantly recognized him.
He had already seen him when he stopped that attack from Herald. At that time he was actually about to do it, but because Muri was just below the arena he arrived faster than him.
But he actually knew him from before. Once they have been in the same squad in the battlefield.
And he himself knew exactly how Muri acts when he was in his killing mode.
He wouldn't ooze his killing intent until the last second when his blade had already touched the skin of his opponent.
So Muri directing his killing intent and chipping the backrest of his chair was a clear warning from him.
Karma didn't take it to heart as he knew that his huge ki had made the kid nearly suffocated, so he was at the fault here as the stronger and older one.
Karma also didn't dare to make a fuss as there was also an old man smiling slightly watching the both of them.
Karma didn't want to anger Headmaster Brian, Not because he was weaker than him, in fact by now he is stronger than him, but rather from the fact that Headmaster Doron had taught him so much when he was young.
He saw his talent and privately taught and trained him in his own unique ways.
At that time, he couldn't accept Headmaster Brian as his master because he was from a civilian family and his father, the former patriarch had already arranged someone to be his master, who was from a different part of the kingdom and had traveled far.
They couldn't let him travel for nothing. And it wasn't like there was a rule of only having a single master, but as a person of a huge clan, it was always like a unwritten rule to get a master that both have the reputation and power to teach someone of his status.
So Headmaster Brian was like a secret teacher for him.
His teachings helped him in the battlefield as well as connect with his fellow swordsmen in the squad.
He survived the war mostly because of Headmaster Brian's teachings.
With his high repsect for him, Karma doesn't want to destroy the current atmosphere and affairs in the school by creating a scene.
It was also because of this that he and his wife didn't do anything when the Huna Parents dared to badmouth their son in front of them.
Karma sat back to his chair calmly and continued to watch the ongoing matches.
