Chapter 30:This idiot is really a fool... (1/2)
Baaaaang!!!
”!!!”
Thunderous sounds followed after Kiko slammed his sword onto the Mustang Spider's forehead. Almina and the other who also near the monster covered their faces using their arms.
Yman frowned, its not because his warning came late, but this idiot chose to disregard his warning.
A moment later...
Swoosh!
A steaming figure was sent flying back. All of them were staring at this figure with wide eyes.
”???”
”Is that a bird?” Chloe subconsciously asked.
”It's a plane.” Muttered by Bob.
”No, it's a human being!” Mai screamed seeing the smoking figure flew away from the explosion.
Yman sighed, he was right. |What an idiot.| Yman muttered in his mind while staring at the body who passed by at him and was flying like a crashing plane. Then it landed on the ground with sounds effects of bouncing and rolling.
|Ugh, that might hurt a little...| With indifferent looks on his face, he whispered in his mind.
How could a boss-like monster like the Mustang Spider just display its weakness wide open? Of course, it was a trap! This Kiko was too reckless for rushing in without thinking. However, he was happy about what happened to this guy.
Yman already suspected it after seeing the Magic Cryst on the monster's forehead. Since, in the first place, Magic Cryst usually hid inside the monster's inner core. Yet, this monster displayed it on its forehead.
He was only not reading books about monsters on the Outerworld, he even experimenting with some of them. And he likes watching the soldier fighting with the monsters on the town walls. So his knowledge about Magic Cryst was fairly high.
Magic Cryst was formed from the accumulation of excess energies and combat experience in the monster's inner core. Which solidified through toughed battles.
That's why Magic Cryst had random effects or abilities. It could also be meant that this Magic Cryst was like their trophy for winning battle after battle.
But this idiot did not let him finished his words and suddenly rushed towards the monster.
What he heard was not a collision of two opposing forces. But a loud explosion of magical energies from Kiko's own Meteor Blast. His attack triggered the monster's passive skill, which would activate once the attacker hit the Magic Cryst on its forehead. It sent back the attack to the attackers. So the one who got injured by his own ability was no other than himself.
Although the bounce attacked was not 100% of its original strength. Still, that explosion of his own ability toasted him.
He doesn't really care about that person, but as a leader, he had the responsibility for their safety and for the success of this mission. But since he did warn that idiot and still did what he wants, then Yman could only wash his hands to what happened to him.
”Plan A!” Yman shouted. There was no time to be in a daze and they could not wait for some idiot to regain his bearings. They needed to kill the monster as fast as they could. Else, everyone's stamina would run out first.

When the rolling body stopped, ”It was Kiko!”
The audience screamed after they identified the person. The audience at the distance was having ashen faces. Especially the girls. The person they admired was sent back like a charred lump of a tree branch. The brand new uniform of Middle Region Magic Academy that he was wearing was tattered all over.
His handsome face and well-combed blonde hair were in a mess.
He was having a shock expression on his face while trying to get up. His friends who were in the audience shouted for his name. While the other trainee shouted abusive words to the only person who did not do anything. Cursing him, and telling him 'gayman'. That he was afraid to fight. And he's the reason why Kiko was hurt.
Yman didn't know if where to hide so that no one would mind him. He was wondering why their idol's fault was thrown towards him. These people were just too unjust. In this era where strength and looks had a bigger impact on the masses, someone like him was not worth noticing. Yet, he was noticed by them. But in a very bad way.
A beautiful girl with ponytail lavender hair ran towards Kiko's side.
|See? Even in his embarrassing situation, there was still a beauty that would lend him a hand. How about if I was the one who hurt myself in the process of saving others? For sure I had only myself to blame. For sure no beauty would run to my side and reached me a hand.| In Yman's mind.
That was one of the unfairness of this era. Only strength and looks were mattered. In any case, he really doesn't care about other people. He only cared for his sister. In this world, there's only him and her.
