Chapter 140 Karmas A b*tch 2 (2/2)

”Liar.”

Herad stalked closer as he angrily pointed at his face that started to swell.

”Do you see this? This is from YOUR punches! Unless of course, you think that I somehow did this on myself?!”

”Of course. Someone like me would never resort to barbaric methods such as fist fighting.”

Herad felt annoyed to the brim, so much so that he began to rant.

”Oh, you think you're so noble, huh? You think that you're way above everyone else in here, huh? That, even though we're in the same class, you still feel superior after all these years just because of you're from a pure Mage class family, huh? Well, why don't we have a duel in two days time? That would be enough to find someone to heal your pathetic jaw. And then, well finally see who's the better one among us. But just so you know, you've always been the most annoying, stuck up, spoiled, and delusional noble that still thinks he could beat or be someone as great as a Mirzo. Well, sadly, the reality is here to tell you that you're nothing more than a rich man who gained his power from memorizing spells that were given to you by your father and depending on others to finish the work for you.”

Galen was at a loss for words so he simply huffed and turned his back around Herad in anger. Then, he softly tried to cradle his jaw that ached endlessly.

Herad, seeing his actions, decided that it would probably be the best time to leave. He didn't want to stay and risk killing the guy out of anger. After all, his record is still clean in the academy.

But with anger still in his mind, he still wanted Galen to know one thing.

”Just so you know, I never wanted to be friends with you. If it weren't for the fact that our fathers were close friends, I would never even associate with the likes of you. Manipulative and yet, purely dense and delusional.”

Herad let out a small laugh as he began to walk away.

A few steps further, he finally noticed that they were in the East Protected Forest of the Academy. It's where they usually conduct spells that have a high chance and area of destruction. And thus, by its name, it has a protective barrier around its surroundings so as not to let destructive and unstable magic particles to leak out during training.

And usually, only the Rose class and some few students from the High classes are able to enter this area.

So now, after cooling down from the earlier drama, Herad began to wonder how they even got here in the first place.

It was truly strange.

Who would manipulate his body?

For what reason did that 'someone' send them here?

And why did Galen start punching him out of nowhere but then, later deny it?

And why here in the East Protected Forest?

Who can even do such a feat?

His head was filled with questions as he navigated himself towards the exit.

But at least there was one thing he was very sure of.

No doubt, this was surely done by someone terrifyingly powerful.
