Chapter 51 - Youre not a monster (1/2)

Sebastian could no longer stand. blood dripping from every part of his body, his face was an unrecognisable mess, split lips, torn ear and his once white sash now turned red.

With the fight now over. Ray had quickly fled the scene. Using his black night skills it was easy for him to disappear into the crowd and not be followed.

Ray's roommates were still in shock at the sight they had just seen. Even Slyvia and Ian who had their doubts about Ray being week were surprised. They knew he was strong but he was on a different level. It was as if a master knight was schooling a student.

”Wow, the black knight skills are too OP, how are we meant to stop an attack like that,” Dan said.

Monk was replaying the scene in his head of when Ray had used the Phantom strike.

”No, none of us can do what he just did.”

”Has he been hiding his strength form us this whole time?” Kyle asked.

”Wait, does this mean now Ray and Gary are going to fight for number the number one spot!” Dan shouted.

The people around them had overheard Dan they started to move closer towards the group hoping to catch some gossip.

Gary tried to wave off the people around him and said.

”He's already beaten me before, there is no need for a second fight, I know I have no chance.

Gary's words had shocked the people around him, they wondered when did the two of them fight, it had had to be before they had been given their ranking communicator.

But Gary's words were more like a confirmation to them, they had seen how easily Ray had defeated Sebastion. Although no one would say Gary was weaker then Sebastion, he would have never been able to bully Sebastion the same way Ray had done.

News had travelled quickly around the school. On one of the top floors in the central building of Avrion academy, the master knights had gathered for a meeting.

”He should be given the death punishment,” Delbert shouted while slamming his fist on the table.

”You're letting blood ties drive your emotion, you must think like a knight and not a father. The boy broke no rules.” Sir K said.

”Did you see the state of my son, his face will be messed for weeks, no normal child could torture someone this bad, he's as evil as Sen himself.”

Rose backed up Delbert.

”I agree, he could become the destroyer of the kingdom just as the prophecy foretold.”

”May I remind you the prophecy had also stated that a red-haired boy would be our saviour, trying to kill or expel them might be the doom for us all.

We shall cast a vote, those in favour of expelling the boy raise their hand.” Wilfred suggested.

Delbert and Rose had raised their hand while Bernardo and Sir K head left their hand down.

”I guess I have the deciding vote, the boy shall remain at Avrion academy, there shall be no punishment on the boy.”

Delbert slammed the table in response but said nothing. He knew there was nothing he could do to get the decision overturned, even he respected the rules of Avrion Academy. A sudden thought had come to Delbert's mind if he could not do anything to harm the boy, then perhaps someone else could.
