7 The Most Powerful Novice! (1/2)

All chaos breaks the team members of the sub squad of Rizing pounce on these criminals. That girl with doll eyes, Victoria appears in front of me stopping me from fighting Guru. ”You fought Guru and earned his respect...That's not easy to do.” Victoria says to me. ”I must admit you must have some kind of special power to peak the interest of people who don't show much of an interest in other people.” She continues. ”What makes you say that?” I ask her. ”Because the moment you did something to Janis, you peaked my interest.” Victoria replies to me. ”Slide through the blood, slide through the veins, you shall be dead by the time your awake, Venom magic: Venomous touch.” Victoria says in a slow but sweet voice. Her hands...They have a sort of green smog around it. Venom magic huh?

”Your hands, they are poisonous...Aren't they?” I ask Victoria. ”Very much...Don't worry, I won't kill you, I will just nudge you so that YOU JUST GET PARALYSED NOT POISONED!” Victoria says and swings her hands around my neck.

*Swoop*

I strafe back a little. Shit! My body has not fully recovered from the fight with Guru.

*Break*

Damn...I might have a few broken bones too. Here comes another swing from her.

*Swoop*

What is she a cat to swing like that? Her leg...I dodge it

*Swoop*

I realise that there is a wall behind me. Shit! I quickly run over the wall and flip back behind her only to fall onto my back.

*Break*

”Damn it! Those broken bones are playing a huge part in this fight.” I say. ”I see...Guru has done a number on you. You can't even fight properly and yet...You were so calm. Like you had no fear of dying.” Victoria says to me as I get up holding the side of my gut. I smile. ”I can't do anything...That's just how I am. I fear nothing...I fear nothing since I was a kid...And like you said...Not even death scares me.” I say. ”Interesting...You want to know something?” Victoria asks me. ”What?” I ask her. ”Knights are the worse type of creatures, they say they protect us but the real jobs is done by the guard knights.” Victoria says to me. ”Guard knights? Aren't those the one's who defend our country from bandits and make sure none of the other races infiltrate our country?” I ask. ”That is correct but have you ever thought what the actual knights do?” Victoria ask. I shake my head. ”Then let me tell you, the only thing they do is fuck around with people like me and Guru.” Victoria says to me. ”Wait, you are Guru?” I ask. ”Of course they didn't tell you about us before they sent you on this mission, right? It's always like this when you hire a mercenary for a job like this.” Victoria says to me. ”We aren't mercenaries,we are knights in training.” I say. ”Huh?! WHAT?! NOW THEY ARE SO DESPERATE THAT THEY ARE SENDING KNIGHTS IN TRAINING?!” Everyone looks at us. ”WHICH YEAR ARE YOU?!” Victoria asks me. ”Novice...” I say.

(Note: In the terms of knights, Novice knights are basically the first year students.)
