Chapter 359: You are lucky my dad is pissed!
"I made an offer to you and you rudely said no while leaving me hanging and you are here? Who knew that you were the werewolf slayer huh?!" Raze chuckled as he looked at his hands.
"In the VR world, we can't fight at full strength but that is different here in the real world and now that I have seen you, I'm not letting you go so easily. We have to fight right here and right now! A fight to the death!" Raze declared and his coat was flung to the side revealing a sword in its sheath which he drew out.
'Of course he is Alex's brother! They are battle maniacs and would want to fight any strong being they see. I wonder if that's how Rex is.' Jake thought as he took a step back when he saw Raze taking a stance with his visual Qi erupting and surrounding him.
"Okay this has gone on long enough! Raze come back here now!" Bane shouted and Raze turned around to stare at Bane.
"I don't take orders from you so quit ordering me around you oldie. I do as I please!" Raze retorted back.
"How…" Bane was about to say when he felt a hand on his shoulder and turning around, he felt an immense pressure descend in the booth and not only the booth, the whole coliseum felt the same pressure that hit them causing them to break out in sweat including Jake who took a step back.
'Is that…I thought I was finally on par with them but it feels like there is still a gap.' Jake thought while gulping hard. 'I guess Alex was partly right.'
"Raze! Don't… make… me… come… down there… bring your f*cking ass back here right this instant!" Rex shouted and a shockwave erupted cracking the dome covering the coliseum while Raze skidded on the ground slightly.
'I…it wasn't me the threat was directed at and I can feel my heart thumping so loud that it feels like it will jump out of my chest this instant. I… I could probably put up a fight against him but might not last long.' Jake thought as he saw Raze shaking in his boots.
In a flash, Raze's sword was sheathed back and he bent his knees looking as if he was going to jump but before he did, he turned around to look at Jake.
"You are lucky my dad is pissed and I'm unlucky he is pissed but just know that I won't let you off next time." Raze said as he jumped up out of the coliseum heading for the booth.
"Sorry for that everyone, the duels will continue now." Bane said and Jake walked back towards the stand with Alex patting him on his back and so did Peter who did it with a slight frown.
"I'm still pissed from you throwing me out the platform you know but after you kicked that arrogant Gray's arse, I have forgiven you." Peter smiled.
"Thank you guys. Now if you will excuse me, I need to meditate in order to recover my lost Qi." Jake said as he went to take an empty seat in the stands that was devoid of people and there were a lot of those considering the little amount of people that came.
And then he sat down cross legged preparing to mediate.
'My reserve takes about thirty minutes to become full again considering the fact that I have a large Qi pool. Using that visual Qi of earlier drains me of all my Qi after usage so I can't use it lightly. If I was in a serious fight, I wouldn't have time to recover before I would be swiftly killed. So I need to do something about this Qi depletion issue and use that visual Qi as a last resort.' Jake thought and then he began mediating.
'I wish the next teams good luck.'
"Now for the next teams to fight." Bane said as the holographic display began shuffling around for a few seconds before stopping on the teams.
"Team A from the thunderbolt guild vs team A from the daisy guild!" Bane announced and without wasting time, the two teams filed out onto the platform while the girls from the daisy guild had a nervous expressions on their faces.
'I saw the way that old man from earlier took out those strong Fang hunters' guild members, if he is participating, then we have practically lost so it's better to forfeit than lose humiliatingly.' Linda thought and was about to say the word when she heard Kai speak.
"I'm trying to conserve my strength for now, so you two, you are up. Go crazy!" Kai said and then he took a step back while Harry along with Sebastian stepped forward.
'Thank goodness! Now we can try our best.' Linda thought as she took a stance with her sword in hand while peach banged her shield several times and Ivy rolled her daggers in her fingers waiting for the countdown clock to appear.
It didn't take long for it to appear as it began counting down and after a few seconds, it hit 0. And without wasting time, the three girls were seen charging towards Sebastian and Harry who took a stance with their swords in hand.
Sprinting forward was Ivy with her two daggers in hands and it didn't take long for her to get in front of Sebastian as she pushed off and came towards him with a stab from the side but anticipating her moves, he quickly blocked with his sword.
"I was part of the top twenty students in my first year until that monster took it from me. Then struggling hard, I finally occupied the top ten spot. Do you think you can defeat me easily?!" Sebastian said as the Qi surrounding his feet suddenly intensified making him explode forward and then swung his sword from the side but Ivy managed to block albeit by the skin of her teeth.
"The real world isn't some shitty academy!" Ivy said as he pushed off towards Sebastian.
"True! And that's why I have been training hard!" He said and his sword began glowing brightly and then his hands began electrifying striking his sword.
Meanwhile Ivy was in the air coming in with a strike to his head.
'I'm not like dad or Harry, I can only use this on my hands but it should be enough.'
"Weren't you told?" Sebastian asked as he raised the sword above his head while seeing Ivy coming in powerfully and strong and then swinging his sword, an electrical yellow slash was seen coming out as it crashed into Ivy throwing her out of the air onto the ground.
Before she could stand up, Sebastian was seen running forward and then he stood in front of a kneeling Ivy. "You can't dodge while in mid air." He said before whacking her in the head with the butt of his sword.
Turning around, he could see that Harry was finishing up with his fight as the two females Linda and Peach were seen huffing and panting while Harry looked like he hadn't broken a sword.
And then in the blink of an eye, they were seen on the floor out cold.
'No matter how hard I train, there are still some monsters and beasts stronger than me taking the spotlight.' Sebastian thought.
"Team A Thunderbolt guild wins!" Bane commented.
