Chapter 90：Untreatable (1/2)

Slyvia couldn't help herself as she watched Ray. Tears started to roll down her cheek.

”What's wrong?” Monk asked.

”Can't you see? Ray's not angry, he's sad.”

Ray had a feeling in his chest that wouldn't disappear. No matter what he did the feeling seemed to stay there. He originally thought he wanted revenge. That's what he was doing now but why wasn't the feeling going away.

Then Ray realised something. Every time he would start to trust or care for people, the world would torture him in some way. The world had given him a second chance, and through that second chance, he saw how cruel humans truly were. Not just to beasts or dragons but to themselves.

He wanted to trust humans. He wanted to find a place he could call home. If he had been given the chance to just live a peaceful life then everything might have turned out fine. But the world didn't want him to. The world showed him what humans were like. It gave him red hair and he saw the discrimination people gave. Then it tested him again. When he chose to save two lives, he nearly lost his own.

When his father had been infected, no one came to help. Now it seemed like everyone was out to kill him and anyone who got close to him, even Amy who he had only met briefly.

As Ray stood in the arena in silence, the group thought they had been successful in getting through to Ray.

Suddenly Ray pulled on the chain, that was wrapped around on his right hand. Kyle tried to resist but ended up being dragged through the air. As Kyle flew close to him, Ray jumped up and slammed him on the floor with his two fists.

Kyle lay motionless at Ray's feet. Ray slowly bent down and whispered in Kyle's ear,

”You need to take your training more seriously. Focus your Ki.”

Martha reacted to the sudden turn of events by firing off three arrows in the air.

Ray not only dodged them but grabbed two of the arrows and threw them towards either side of Martha. If Martha moved, she would be hit by her own arrows. Ray dashed forward and punched Martha in the stomach.

As her body slowly slumped to the ground, Ray whispered.

”Don't hesitate. Predict where I will go, not where I am.”

The two twins came charging in at Ray together. Ray imbued his left foot with Ki and smashed the ground, causing pieces of the arena to fly through the air. He punched two of the bigger pieces, launching them forward and they crashed into the twins.

As the twins laid there on the floor, Ray casually walked up to them.

”It's good to be brave but without a plan, you're just throwing your lives away.”

The crowd had never seen a student display such dominance in the arena before. They had just seen Ray take out 4 of the best students Avrion Academy had.

”How is this guy not in the top five rankings?”

”The other students must be crazy strong.” One of the third-year students said.

Nearly all of the third-year students were staring at Slyvia and her group. If Ray wasn't qualified to be in the top 5 then these 5 here must truly be monsters.
