Chapter 297: A challenge for melee battle (2/2)

A person who was able to form a contract with a deity would never be a normal person. So, the reason why he couldn't summon his mana was not that he had no mana, but maybe because he was yet to learn how to summon it. Or maybe there was something wrong with his mana output.

A surprise kick from Jugo was able to find its way to Yman's chest. Jugo grinned but soon froze upon noticing that Yman was able to block it by crossing his arms. Though, he skidded back a few steps away.

With a twitching face, he followed with another attack by swinging his claw to Yman.

”Die!” He shouted.

Yman swayed left and right, but he fell short and one of Jugo's attacks hit him on the chest.

”Big bro!” Yana exclaimed worriedly.

”It's fine,” Rea immediately said. ”Don't worry, he can heal himself,” she added.

Right, she once heard from his brother that his first magic was a self-healing magic!

Inside the waiting hall, Almina was tightly gripping her hands in front of her chest. She was worried about Yman, but. She trusted that he would never lose. Even though everyone said he was the weakest in the academy in terms of strength, for Almina, Yman was the most reliable person.

Beside her, the blonde, Maena, was staring at the monitor with great interest. She was wondering how Yman was able to keep up against a student from an elite class.

However, no matter how strong he became, it was still impossible for him to defeat an elite student. The evidence of it was the wound on his chest.

Just then, everyone was stunned, along with Maena, when the wound on Yman's chest disappeared without a trace.

”Healing magic?!” Sunny asked in exclamation.

”Seems like that…” Jack seconded.

”Hmm, that young man... is an interesting person,” unexpectedly, they heard Adam Praeter speak.

Sunny and Jack glanced at him and nodded.

Seeing it, Jugo's already twitching face, had a further twitch.

”You cheater!” He bellowed, then attacked once again. This time, he will make sure to end his enemy. A long double slash formed into a huge letter X in the air. But, where is the target? Yman disappeared from his position. The next second, Jugo felt someone prodded his shoulder.

He glanced behind him. But he was greeted by a fist. Out of reflex, he tried to evade it, but it was too late. Jugo was sent spinning to the side like a human propeller.

WHAT!

All the onlookers were dumbfounded. They were staring with wide eyes open and agape.

WHAT KIND OF POWERFUL PUNCH WAS THAT!!!

Everyone shouted in their minds.

”Wait, Chloe, am I dreaming?” Bob wondered if it was a dream. There's no way that his best friend Yman would be that strong. Besides, it was only a month that they didn't see him. So it was impossible for everyone to become that strong in just that little time.

Chloe opened her mouth but did not say anything. She was uncertain what to say. Like the others, she also found it hard to believe. In fact, Chloe already fell silent when Yman evaded Jugo's first attempt to finish him in an instance. She already suspected that there was something different at the current Yman.
