If the Gwandys can heal the wound from the awaken power, why isn't Jevro's wound healed? I frowned as I turned to him. Is there something I don't know? Or maybe because he doesn't perfectly match with his Gwandys?
"I understand." I answered sparingly while adjusting the black gloves on my hands.
"Thank you. Then, shall we begin the spar?" Alistair looked happy as he stretched his arm in the direction of the sparring ground.
The man whom I'm going to spar with, let out a smirk. His name is Devaugn, right? If they don't want to clarify what they want, then, I will force them until they say their plan on their own.
I can feel the tension of the viewers in their seats. Alfonso also looked anxious while Jevro had his legs crossed while smiling at me. It's like he's telling me to beat up the enemy because he's annoyed with them too. I smirked in response to his facial expression. A moment later, I heard the sound of the countdown installed in the upper part of the gym. With every tic-toc of the clock, I see the tension of my opponent's muscles. A few moments later, he gives off his black aura.
"You have the power of Teleportation. I saw what you did yesterday during your spar with Rowan. Unfortunately, I also have that power." Devaugn said before teleporting behind me.
How did I know that he was behind me? He may have teleported but his black aura remained visible in my eyes. So I quickly dodged his water attack. He continued the same movement. Teleportation and water attacking. Surprisingly, his water ability is comparable to Jevro's fire type ability. I do nothing but avoid his attack.
"So weak.." I whispered to myself.
Maybe because of the secret ability of my eyes, even Devaugn's movement is like slow-mo in my eyes. I was only slightly stunned to notice the water ball on my head. When I looked at him, before I realized that I was already inside the water wall he made.
"No escaping now. Even if you use your teleportation, my water will damage your body when you touch it. My water has 70% acid. Even the monsters I fought melt when they are inside the water ball." The man said while grinning.
I didn't say a word, based on what my eyes could see, what Devaugn was saying was true. His water has acid. Actually, its 75% acid. Powerful if used on monsters. Very impressive, as expected to American representatives. They will not send useless to embarrass their country. However..
"Hmmm.. Its powerful indeed." I said while motioning my hand.
The water wall quickly created a large gap that a person like me could fit through to get out. It was like a snake bit the man in front of me when I finally got out of his acid trap. I took a few steps away from him before I stopped. The onlookers gasped as Alistair secretly clenched his fists.
"H-How did you do that?!" My sparring partner shouted.
"Did what? Escaping from your trap? Your water is indeed powerful because of the acid. But if it happens that the water you released doesn't have acid, I will sadly tell you that its a useless trap. No offense. I'm just telling the truth." I told him which caused his face to turn red.
Maybe because I triggered Devaugn's anger. Suddenly, his water acid covered the surface of the sparring ground. I turned to Alistair to see how he was reacting to what his subordinate was doing. Surprisingly, the idiot is smiling as if he expected it.
Alfonso is obviously worried because there is a high possibility that the audience will be harmed if the person controlling the water acid makes a mistake.
"Don't be arrogant. You've only been in the world of awakens for three days. You don't know anything when it comes to fighting." Devaugn said darkly.
"Well, let's say you're right when it comes to how long I've been awake, however, I'm not like the others who lose themselves when they're overpowered by what they call a novice." I slightly scratched my cheek while talking so the man's appearance darkened even more.
Before everything got worse, I let out a deep breath before I stretched out my two arms. In just an instant, everyone stood up when they see Devaugn floating in the air. I now also controlling the water he released.
"I think, I won?" I turned to Alistair.
Alistair looked dark as he looked at me with his palms closed. Well, the rules are who is the first to trigger redo. But in Devaugn's situation now, there is a high possibility that his Redo will trigger because he can no longer move. When he tries to break free from my power, there is a good chance that something bad will happen.
"Ugh! Y-You son of a bitch! What was agreed upon was sparring! Not to play with your opponent!" Devaugn shouted as he fell.
"Who told you that I was playing with you? Even a little, you didn't even trigger my interest in fighting. You didn't even get a drop of sweat out of my body. Although I acknowledged the power of your Water acid , you're still weak compared to Jevro." I said seriously while staring at him.
Devaugn's face grew redder. His eyes also started to flicker. It is a sign that the rebellion of his Redo is starting. I took a deep breath before turning to Alastair.
"Asked your Gwandy to comfort him. He triggered his Redo. And, if what you want is to know my limit, I suggest to please wait the day of the raid. I will not disappoint you to see what you want to see. But if you'll still insist..." Alistair's eyes widened as all the metal weapons around suddenly rose.
"You can still try.." I said coldly as I slowly handed Devaugn to the group of Gwandys.
Devaugn seems to have come to his senses because the Water Acid that was floating on top of the gym suddenly disappeared. Alistair closed his eyes tightly before opening his eyes again and looked at me. He smiled at me so I returned the weapons to where they came from. Alfonso is still shocked while Jevro just smiles. Most importantly, Rowan is tightly clenching his fists.
"Dont worry, I don't mind sparring with you anymore. As you said, I will wait for the day you show me your true abilities." Alistair said while still offering a handshake. "I just hope, you give me a chance to talk to you just the two of us. As you should know, I'm interested in you. Im sure, my president will also say the same when he sees you." Alistair added.
I accepted his handshake. "If you tell me to be part of the international Malemyns group under American supervision, right now I'm rejecting your offer." I told him honestly and seriously.
"But.. being part of the international Malemyns is an advantage. Except for the money you will receive, the whole world will run after you to ask for your help. By then, you can give the price yourself..."
"Alistair, if my power can be compared to the international group of Malemyns and the whole world will know about it. They can directly contact me for help. I don't need to be part of your organization. My country needs me. You understand, right? " The tone of my voice was colder than the north pole.
Alistair swallowed a few times before nodding with a smile. "I just hope you don't regret your decision." He said meaningfully.
And because of that, the gap between the two of us got even tighter. I could see him smiling but the black aura he was releasing was clearer to my eyes.
"Don't worry, I will never." I answered him before I turned and headed to Jevro's place.
I know Alistair's group will do anything to get what they want. However, I am always prepared when it comes to the dirty tricks thrown at me. Jevro was staring at me as I stepped closer to him. Alfonso also approached me.
"He tried to recruit you, right?" Alfonso looked dark while asking.
"En. Don't worry, I rejected him." I answered while absently caressing Jevro's cheek.
"Really? But I'm sure they won't stop until they get you." Jevro spoke while staring at me.
"I know that already. But, they are weak." I answered before looking at Alfonso. "By the way, find someone who can check Jevro's wound. Its still not healed enough."
Alfonso raised his eyebrows before turning to Jevro. He then nodded before calling out a Gwandy. The woman approached and bowed with red cheeks.
"Chairman?"
"Check Jevro. He must be really healed before the raid." Alfonso ordered the woman who was still blushing.
She nodded her head before slowly reaching Jevro's hand. She's trembling out of nervousness or whatsoever so I let out a chuckle. Jevro frown as he look up at me. He then asked why?
