Chapter 103 - Slyvia VS Jack (1/2)

The ten second-year students walked into the arena while the ten third-year students walked in from the other side. As the two teams entered, they were greeted with gigantic cheers that shook the whole stadium.

Slyvia scanned the crowd for her brothers while Gary's eyes were focused on one person: Harry, who was stood on the opposite end of the arena.

”Will everyone please look to the display in the middle of the arena.”

The holographic display started to randomise images of all the contestants until it finally stopped.

”And it looks like the first battle of this evening will be between the lovely gorgeous Slyvia Heart versus the impenetrable Jack Dem!”

Slyvia and Jack approached the centre of the stage while the rest of the students watched with eager anticipation from the outside.

The rules were a bit different for the second round compared to the first round. Contestants were allowed to use real equipment for this fight. There were no longer any bracelets on either contestant. Instead, two master knights were on standby, Sir k and Wilfred. If a contestant was to take a fatal blow, Wilfred and Sir K would do everything in their power to stop the fight just before the blow would hit and declare one person the winner.

If it was also apparent that one person was overwhelmingly stronger than the other, at any time the master knights had the power to stop the contestants and declare the other person the winner. If a contestant is knocked out or forfeited, this too would count as a win.

Slyvia gripped her shield and sword tightly in her hand while Jack walked slowly with his giant great sword on his back. Jack was shirtless and wore no armour.

The second-year students got nervous and the sight of Jack wielding such a huge weapon.

”Do you think she can win?” Monk asked.

”Of course, she can Monk” Martha replied. ”You know how strong she is.”

Although Ray had another thought going on in his head. Even though he shared his mana with Slyvia, he was hoping that Jack was still injured from the events of last night, but Jack looked like he had completely recovered. There wasn't a mark on him. It looked like Ray wasn't the only one with a special body.

The centre of the arena was slightly elevated compared to the rest of the arena this time. Jack and Slyvia stood up into the centre. When they both got on, Slyvia was staring intently at Jack, yet Jack was looking straight past her and directly at Ray.

Then a horrible thought came across Ray's mind.

”Boss, do you want me to forfeit this match!” Jack shouted from across the arena while looking at Ray.

Ray's horrible thought was right. Jack was a headstrong loyal idiot.

Ray decided to ignore Jack's words hoping he would get the message and looked away.

”Boss can you hear me? Boss? Boss!”

”Err Ray, I think he's talking to you,” Monk indicated.

”Of course not, he's clearly looking for this boss person.”

”Ray, Ray!” Jack then continued to shout.
