274: Chapter 274 – The Other Two Fights 274: Chapter 274 – The Other Two Fights “We shouldn’t have let him go like this.” The musclehead called Languister said.
Thomas quietly listened on as he kept walking.
All the others somewhat agreed with the guy but kept silent.
“Am I the only who thinks the bastard has a hand in this!” “No, you’re not the only one.” Jennifer said, “But we don’t have any evidence against him so we can’t do anything.” “Evidence?
We still need evidence?
That Arthur boy is breathing his last breath and we’re out here searching for nothing!” Languister spoke angrily, “How can we still need evidence after what happened!” “Hasn’t he already done something like this before?
Why don’t we just join the two cases together and get him.” Languister joined his hands in a fist.
“No, that case is different.” Thomas finally spoke, “There’s no connection between the two.” “How are you sure about that?
He could have just learned from his mistake and hidden it.” Thomas shook his head, “No… this is clearly different.
At the first case, the student had injected himself with some kind of special drug that made him go crazy.” “But there wasn’t any use of drug in this one.
We all saw it, the boy changing himself to something else entirely.” Harold said.
“Yes… now that you mention it.
I also remember Henry’s expression at that moment.” Jennifer said remembering the moment, “He seemed a bit surprised at Arthur’s new transformation but seemed to know of it.” “So he did have some connection with it.” Languister accused.
Jennifer said, “No, that isn’t it.
He already told us he knew what Arthur used and told us to learn it from him.” “But why wouldn’t he tell us?
It’s a serious accusation against him.” Thomas sighed, “Languister, you know that there are things out there that we shouldn’t pry into.
If this spell or ability that Arthur used, is something related to his family, then it’s clear why Henry wouldn’t tell us.” “I understand but…” Languister didn’t give up, “What if he has some connection with it?
What if Arthur had already injected that drug but its effects just came out later.
Unlike what happened with that Haylo or gaylo boy.” “Taylor?” “Yeah, whatever he’s name is.
This could be a way for him to thwart our suspicion from him.
And what about the first case?
Why aren’t we doing anything about that?” Languister asked as he felt anger with each question.
“The first case was handled personally by the principal so it’s already settled.
One of the reasons we can’t connect the first case with this one.” Harold said with suspicion.
“Tch!” Languister snickered, “What is Sir doing?
First with that thing with Lazarus and then covering up the case about this bastard.” “Well, whatever the real deal is, we won’t do anything until Arthur gets up and tells us himself.” Thomas said, “Until then nobody will do anything against Henry or anyone… especially you Languister.” “What!
I won’t do anythin-” “So no torture or interrogation then?” The scrawny teacher with dubious features said as everyone looked at him suspiciously.
“You know what Languister, keep an eye on this guy for me.” Thomas said.
“Will do.” “Hey!
Why are you all looking at me like that.” The scrawny guy said, “I’m only doing what you guys brought me in for!” … I didn’t stay back and rest on the medical facility.
How could I when there were still two fights left that I needed to see.
So I left the place and secretly joined the spectators seat above.
The next match had already started, it was Xavier and the Rank 1 guy from Class B.
The crowd was quiet loud with this match.
It seems that seeing two Pink color talents fight, got their blood boiling.
The fight was a bit interesting.
Xavier fought somewhat same like Arthur as both used swords.
But unlike him, Xavier was aggressive in his attack.
He went straight for the kill as the other guy dodged them cleverly.
Then used air blasts to blow him away.
Zooming in, I saw him using a Blue Sigmat Ring with Air Affinity.
Xavier on the other hand also had a sigmat ring with the Fire Affinity.
But he had a lesser Yellow version.
It didn’t take long for the Class B guy to use his ring and beat Xavier, who reluctantly accepted defeat when he finally got trampled by a large spell from the guy.
Seeing Xavier fall unconscious, Falbic called it, “Our winner of the fourth bout, Alvin Gorder!” “Mr.
Gorder, do you have anything to say to the crowd?” The guy seemed uninterested with everything, “I’m going to win this Exam.” With that he turned around and left.
“Haha… it seems he’s quite confident about that goal!
Well, what else can you expect from the first rank student of Class B.” Falbic continued a bit more until the next fighters were ready and called out.
“Our final bout of the day, an Archer against another Archer!” “Both from Class F, Wilson Farrow and Taylor Harris!” Both fighters walked in at the same time.
Wilson wore, casual light armor and had a medium long bow with an arrow packs attached to his back.
Taylor also wore similar clothes like Taylor as he was in the same category as him.
The guy also had the Sky Angel’s Bow with him.
This fight is somewhat interesting for me, even if it weren’t for the crowd.
To them, it was just archers firing off arrows from a distance.
But for me, it was two talents facing off against each other.
In this case, the real talent had to face someone with better weapon.
Falbic started the fight and as I guessed, Wilson was the first to shoot.
He’s arrow went fast and Taylor had to jump away to dodge it.
Wilson was the faster one among both and knew he had to go aggressive and not let Taylor use his bow.
He didn’t stretch their distance and shot off arrows that would incapacitate his legs or arms.
But Taylor was smart too, he knew that the only way to win, was for him to use his bow while remaining far.
So they ran.
Both ran until, Taylor found a moment when he shot an arrow with his Sigmat Weapon.
“Boom!” Taylor barely dodged the attack that had great impact.
“Boom!” And he had trouble escaping from the second one as well, but surprisingly did.
At one point, I saw him stop for a moment and bring out something.
It was a Blue Sigmat Ring.
One that I gave him for his fight.
I step to the edge of my seat, ‘Show me Wilson that you’re willing to let go of some pride for the long term victory… show me that you aren’t worthless like the others.’ I watched with hope and when the next shot came, Wilson wasn’t able to dodge it clearly and got hit.
Silence came and when everyone thought that Wilson was defeated, an ice arrow went straight for the surprised Taylor that barely dodged.
Before Taylor could shoot his next shot, three other ice arrows went for him and two of them hit him.
One for his right leg as it froze to the ground and other on the left hand that froze as well.
From the dust came out, a string pulled Wilson, ready to shoot his next shot.
Seeing that it was irrelevant to continue anymore, Taylor gave up.
“And that’s it folks, our final winner and the last one to qualify for the semi-finals Wilson Farrow!”
What do you think?
