Chapter 15：Non-important blurry background with a thick face (1/2)

Yman took the wooden sword from his storage.

Seeing this, everyone who was watching at him couldn't help letting their laughs break out again.

Now they were certain that this guy was just boasting only.

”Hah, what to expect from someone like him. A no mana person,” someone among the crowd sighed in disappointment.

”Haha, for god sake! He was even poorer than I thought,” another person followed up.

”Look, he was wielding a stick that could not even be considered as a weapon,” another trainee pointed at him.

”Puffft, did he plan on beating the monster through it?!' Some girl questioned the other trainee.

”Oh no, where did he leave his brain?! That stick cannot even deal a scratch on that monster,” Someone asked sarcastically.

”If he was only wielding a stone sword, I might understand. But a wooden sword? Only kids would wield it for them to play,” Among the spectators, one of the instructors was commenting in dismay.

After all, it was just a dummy sword that they used to hit a dummy target at training.

But this person who was asking them if he could attack several monsters at the same time was wielding it against a rank C monster.

Even Goki who was overwatching all the trainees shook his head when seeing it.

Kesha sent a glance to her best friend beside her. She could not understand why Almina said that earlier. It was clear that that person was just boasting.

Then Kesha was thinking that maybe Almina just wanted to see that guy embarrass himself to the crowd.

She giggled, then she sighed in relief.

Perhaps, she was just overthinking herself a while ago, that her best friend would show some interest in that guy. But it looks like she just wanted to make that person embarrassed himself more.

She thought that she could not blame her.

After all, that guy was an unimportant person. He was like a passing extra that would be easily forgotten. Or a blurred background that was non-essential.

Even though many of them ridiculed him, some were silent while looking at him. Deep inside they were expecting that maybe this trainee had really something, like a hidden ace.

This also what Chloe was expecting of Yman. Since he was asking those words from the instructors, maybe he really did have something. Like he truly was a strong person but hidden his real strength.

She was thinking some 'what if'.

Like, what if...he had high Attributes. And what if...he had an overpowered magic ability...

...

Yman was unaware of what the others were thinking about him. He was focusing himself on the fight.

Ahead of Yman, he saw the soldier that was holding the monster in a stalemate. And about 20 meters to the right of him, the group of Kiko fighting three monsters at the same time.

Some spectators showed amazement to their way of handling the monsters. Six of them ganged up the three monsters at the same time.

Yman knitted his brows while glancing at them.

They were circling the monsters while reigning attacks. Two of them had a shield magic ability.

Whenever the monsters threw boulders, it was met by a wall that made earth rise from the ground.

The other one was materializing a shield that made wind. Once the boulder touches it, it slows down then drops on the ground because of the loss in velocity.

One of Kiko's friends was an earth element user and the other was wind element.

Yman let out a sigh.

A sudden voice from someone who couldn't read the mood. It was his deity Sistela.

”...hah, what are you... are you trying to dishearten me?” He questioned her.

She replied.

Yman wanted to cry for his pitiful life. Even his deity was saying he was weak. Well, he could not blame her since it was indeed true. But he just wanted for her to time properly when she voiced out her statement.

...

At the back, some instructors also noticed the group of Kiko.

”What a clever idea. And they even have two shield magic ability users,” one of them voiced out as they were watching them.
