Chapter 525: Automaton Vs Humans [Pt 1]

"He's mine!"

The first to make his move was Edward.

Immediately Jared declared the match to have started, the hulking being sharply dashed in the direction of his foe.

>VWUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMM<

Perhaps it was to impress the girl he had laid his eyes on, or maybe he was simply in a hurry to test out his strength on this new opponent.

Instantly creating a blade from the Mana he exuded, Edward smiled as he wildly dashed.

However—

"Too slow."

—Even Edward couldn't react to what came next.

The Automaton's hand was already close to Edward's face before the boy could say a peep, and its metallic blow was planted on his face faster than he could process.

>BOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

Edward jerked backward, completely stunned by the Automaton's initial attack.

And then—

>BOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!<

Another kick from the platinum armored being sent the boy's hulking body flying away until it crashed into the ground beyond the remaining seven.
