Blood Of Platinum
Chapter 303. Magic School Academy Entrance Examination: Area Level A bag. 5
As the fight was about to start, Ryou ran closer to the arena. The two newly met Ryou come running after him.
Exam's starting.
***
Earlier, when Xenon had just finished fighting Ryou and the cat-eared girl, the teenager with the sword was staring at Xenon from a distance.
'He's Earl's target. The one who had to be eliminated in Lady's letter last night. I didn't think I would meet here'
'This is a lucky break. I thought the four of us would meet him when we passed the exam'
'Virgo and Rayel who met Lady before the exam seemed to miss a great opportunity. If that filthy blood dies here, Lady's marriage to the new Artifact would go smoothly'
He looked away and thought for a moment.
'I want to know if the information is correct or not. But to be honest, Rexa van Houdsen doesn't have enough power to do that'
'The 'Artifact stored here and in the kingdom has not yet given any sign of a suitable new user'
'But I don't think that's important. Now, my target is ahead. Had he died in my hands when I faced him, it would not have been my fault'
'This is for the Master and Earl's plan. For the pain of our ancestors and the history that has been forgotten because of King Lucario!'
'Xenon van Houdsen, after this you will die'
***
Back to this moment, the fight started with the second sword attack carried out by the teenager.
SLAAASH
Xenon jumped up to dodge the attack. His eyes were sharp this time and he wasn't messing around now.
During the battle on the exam some time ago, Xenon always dodged the first attack and observed the attack pattern of the participant who was his opponent without attacking first.
But this one is clearly different.
Eve kills quite noticeably from this distance and Xenon has no other recourse but to attack. He and his bare hands started fighting.
After dodging that participant's attack, Xenon at high speed started attacking him.
The movements he made were really like someone who was fighting in a battleground, not an entrance examination.
Because the movement was so fast, the eyes of the other participants could not follow it.
"What'sthis? So since the beginning the examiner hasn't been serious?! Is that true?!"
"Is he a captain? Or the vice-captain?"
"If it fought him in such a serious fashion, everyone probably wouldn't have passed!"
Many participants were shocked to the point of not being able to stop being flabbergasted by the speed of the attack.
Jene who was observing Xenon started to look so serious.
'Xenon's attack speed had not increased yet but he had also yet to take down his opponent. That means something's not right'
'I've guessed the empty list participants are indeed eyeing the examiners. Butwhy? Does this have anything to do with the concerns of the captains and Algeria-sama?'
'I'm sure this participant is not taking the entrance exam. He was trying to hurt Xenon might even want to kill him?!'
Jene then looks at the worried Ryou.
'Xenon's new friend looks as anxious as me and Jessie. It seems he knows something Xenon's hiding'
'He can even scream like that. Could it be that when they disappeared suddenly last night, there was something else the four of them did?'
Jene's questions and suspicions towards Ryou finally begin to sharpen. But that's not what to think about.
"Jen?! Xenon doesn't look good!" jessie said in a panic
"What?!"
Jene began to look at her future sister-in-law and shouted, "Xenon?!"
On the other hand, Piero and Luna, the two newly met Ryou were standing nearby and looked so anxious.
"It's not so good" Piero muttered
"You're right, nyaa. Testers are desperate now"
"What?! Xenon desperate?! How do you know?!" ask Ryou
He had already tried to follow the direction of the movement of the fight, but it seemed that Ryou's ability still could not keep up.
"You can't see it?" ask Luna
Piero immediately said, "Ryou, it looks like you're not a hunter or an adventurer. So it's only natural that you can't keep up with that move. Not everyone here could also follow the course of that fight"
"What does that mean?!"
"My previous job was a wild beast shooter and assassin, therefore I was used to fighting"
"Easy! I want to know how Xenon is doing now?!" Ryou no longer wanted to hear the pleasantries
Piero started telling Ryou the fight.
"He tried to kick and punch the player. But instead of succeeding, the examiners were getting desperate"
"Why?! Did Xenon make the wrong attack?!"
"Nyaa nyaa, that's not Ryou. It's just that, the sword-wielding participant also compensated for his speed" Luna said with a serious expression
"Luna's right. The tester was fast, but if his opponent's speed was the same accompanied by two swords as weapons, it would have been different" Piero continued
"Xenon..." Ryou looks worried
He was now convinced that the one Xenon was fighting was the intruder they discussed last night.
'Half-elf and tried to enter through the selection test, the terrifying aura and death aura I felt. Though thin but not wrong again'
'Shit! Why did you really meet here'
'And again.why did that stupid teacher refuse to use her magic!!'
'He tried to kill the three of us while training, but here instead did not do the same! Did he really intend to die?!'
Ryou did think so, but he remembered the look in his eyes and Xenon's words while telepathizing with him some time ago.
[You can see it from there. I'll win]
The choice Ryou had only believed in Xenon at the moment.
Now, in the battle arena.
Everything Piero explained was true. Every time Xenon made his sharp kick, the participant continued to dodge and attack by trying to slash Xenon's body.
At first glance it is like targeting the body, but the original is not. He's after the examiner's head.
"Curtain!" patted it with a annoyed expression
Xenon still doesn't look tired or sweaty at all. It was as if he had still not been said to be 100% serious.
But this is a fighting mode that he almost often does when chasing execution targets. So it can be said, at least 50-60% of the serious mode is issued.
"Why hasn't he issued a serious attack yet, examiner?"
"Are you too worried that my sword will slash your head accidentally?"
"You yourself said that we had to make you acknowledge our fighting ability"
There was no reply from Xenon. It's not like he's not okay.
More precisely, Xenon was still searching for the exact moment.
'The guy really talks a lot. He felt like he had the upper hand because he could fend off my attacks without any weapons, Xenon thought
The sword slashes that the participant carried out were getting faster.
'He intends to kill me' Xenon thought
'I realized several times the direction of his sword tried to cut my neck or stab my heart'
"......!!" Xenon was surprised and tried to dodge
A slash from the side occurred and along with it, a physical attack was launched.
The player kicked Xenon. Inevitably, Xenon restrained his attack by crossing both of his hands.
Xenon was knocked back.
"Xenon?!" Ryou shouted
Jessie is starting to look worried. "Xenon...Jene, how's this?!"
Jene is getting anxious now.
'If you get hurt and make Jessie cry, I'll step on your foot!'
Xenon looked at the user of the two swords and he was not in front of him.
Who knows, apparently the participant had jumped towards the back of Xenon.
'Die, dirty blood. Don't blame me because you turned out to be this weak'
Ryou and his two new friends start to pale.
"Testers!!" shouted Luna
"Xenon... Xenon?!"
- BUAAAAC
"Yeah?!"
"......!!!" everyone was surprised
Xenon stood up with a sharp look at the participant.
"Don't try to get carried away. I know, you're trying to do something to me. I also mean to be serious this time"
