Chapter 23: Tristan Provocation, First Battle!
After the flyghtning landed on the ground.
"Come, I will introduce you to them" Kenile patted Tristan's shoulder and said
"Okay" Tristan nodded.
"Little guy, wake up!" Tristan called the beldum sleeping on its arm.
Whiing
Open its eyes and saw its owner the floated around looking at its surrounding
Kenile also happens to saw this guy before but he didn't say anything in front of Tristan.
Few seconds later
"I will leave first, I still need to introduce them here" Instructor Shiela looked at Gato and Ted then said to Kenile.
"Got it, I can handle this"
"I will be back later" She said then flew away with Gato and Ted.
"Let's go" Kenile said to him and then walked towards the students.
Tristan followed him and the beldum tailed behind him. While walking he was looking at the other people here while they also looked at him.
He can see they're wearing dark blue training suits.
Then he happened to see a familiar face, he looked intently at this guy.
[It's your former classmate]
Hearing the system reminder, he immediately remembers
Alfred Sadani!
His former classmates.
Wait, why is he here?
On the other hand, Alfred also looked at him and frowned. The guy in black looks familiar where did he see him?
Huh, why is this guy looking at me? Are we familiar? Alfred thought.
The two of them looked at each other intently.
Tristan recalled the information he read before…
Alfred Sadani's record, besides knowing he reaches the expert stage, his school, and his affairs.
He really can't remember…
He also thought about the university that he knew like Eons, Gale Feather, Grand Resolution, Magic Century, and some other famous universities in Green Region, it seems he didn't know more Universities from other regions. Besides BDU, UGKC, and TRYC, the three S-Class Universities in this region, but other than them, he cannot really remember.
And speaking of this, it seems he can't remember the name of this school. All he knew about this school, it was an A-Class.
Instructor Shiela seems mentioned it before and he forgot about it.
Well, anyway it doesn't matter to him, He thought.
Clap, Clap, Clap
Kenile clapped his hand to gather everyone's attention but actually, he doesn't need to do it because all of the people here already paying attention to them.
"I just wanted to introduce to all of you the name of the person beside me"
"His name is… Tristan Black"
"He will be included for the team roster next year"
"Really!" Although some of them had a suspicion before, but hearing this now from the mouth of the headmaster, it's still shocking.
But the one who surprised the most was Alfred.
It's him!
No wonder, he looks familiar and the way he looked at him before.
It's this guy!
Why is he here?
Didn't he got expelled for 2 years in Black Region? Wait, 2 years… 2 years, it seems, it's already more than 2 years had passed.
His temperament… I feel this guy was dangerous. What happened back then?
Alfred was full of confusion while looking at Tristan.
Then he felt his ring signal him a bit then looked at it.
On the other side, there's a woman looking at Tristan with hatred, her name was Marga… Marga Baker.
So, It's this guy, he's the culprit!
Although the headmaster didn't say it, she had a guess, but still couldn't believe it. So, she immediately walked in front and asked: "Headmaster, what do you mean this guy was included, I don't understand because Alliance seems to prohibit people to join unless…"
"You guessed it right, he's the last holder of S-Ticket for this year" Kenile knew he can't hide him forever, much better to expose it so the trend of the news will also end rapidly.
"It's really…"
There is a dozen of whispers on the sides of students. The last S-Ticket holder had been revealed.
The noise of whispers became louder and louder and the field became a market.
Marga who was looking couldn't help but gripped her spear, she and some of the seniors here don't know what was special about this guy that made the headmaster reject Carlo. she walked forward and was about to say something but then she saw Tristan walking toward them.
He stood at the center.
"I know some of you were not convinced about me, so how about this, fight me." He draws his 'Wado Ichimonji' and points the tip of the blade at them.
Of course, it's not only because Tristan wanted to provoke them, he thought the students here were his experience food today. And nice timing because he really lacked points now especially since he spends his 300 points in these 2 days, then he defeats Gato in 2 days of battle and earned 250 points. So his current points became 735.
And you guessed it right, points cannot only be obtained by killing, but you can also earn points by defeating people every day limited to 1 battle per person, if this day, you defeated the person twice, you can only earn points in your first win, not in the second win, you need to wait for the cooldown of that person on another day.
And the points you earned can only be half of the same rank you killed. For example, If Tristan fought Gato and the latter was killed, he can earn 250 points, but if he only defeated Gato, he can only earn 125. That's why Tristan only earned 250 points on him in the past 2 days.
Gato: Why me? ╥ ﹏ ╥
But even though there are no experienced points, Tristan will still provoke them. That's how he is.
"Fighting 1v2 was also okay with me" Tristan added.
And his provocation really received a massive response from them, especially from the seniors who felt being underestimated by this guy.
"Che, I doubt who's the replacement guy who received the S-Ticket but it seems disappointing"
"He dares to say 1v2?"
"Che, it's just an arrogant man who cannot see how tall the mountain"
"He might not defeat 1 of us"
"Brother, be careful, he's also an S-Ticket User"
"So what about it? I can't see anything special about this person"
"What about his clothes? It seems a high class, it's so handsome"
"Tsk, what about being handsome, can you eat it?"
"It's just an arrogant rich kid in a small field who hasn't seen how vast the world is"
"I don't why the headmaster put an S-Ticket with this guy"
"Will we teach this guy a lesson?"
"Should I go?"
Looking at Tristan's performance, Kenile also frowned and thought something. He remembers the reminders of Shiela before, it seems this guy's disadvantage was being arrogant and sometimes his impatient attitude. It looks like she's really right.
"Talk, talk, talk, all you did was talking, does anyone want to fight?" Tristan sneered at them and said.
"This bastard!"
"Let me go, I will shut this guy's mouth"
"Let me go first"
They were about to go forward but they already saw a female appear in front of Tristan, it was Marga.
"First I thought who's the one who replaced my cousin, but I didn't expect it was just an arrogant who had a foul mouth, I doubted it now, are you really worthy? I think it's not" Marga held her spear and provoke him.
"Replace your cousin? What do you mean?"
"Enough chit-chat, I'm done talking" There were huge two brown wings that appeared on her back.
It's Marga unique ability 'Wings'
"It's the wings huh, I suddenly remembered the chicken wings that I ate before" Tristan snickered and keep provoking her.
(AN: There are also normal animals here that's why most of the names of the beasts here were also inspired in the name of animals, for example Tigwrath – Tiger, Bliger – Blood + Tiger, Crolilaw – Crow + Lila, Mosqet – mosquito, Physon – Phyton + Poison, Leoporo – Leopard, and etc…)
Marga looked down at him, you can see the anger written on her face, she immediately activated her water element.
(AN: Spear weapon can also be use as a wand)
"Bubble Bomb!"
Tristan immediately dodges.
Fooom, Fooom, Foooom, Fooom
Then He felt a large mist surrounding him but he didn't panic but concentrated his breathing.
The expert stage fight is not the same as he fought people like a chicken when he was in the Senior Stage.
He saw countless needles coming to him and he immediately use his lightning element to counter them. But not all was covered and some water inserts into his body.
Cheee. It's not even hurt.
He sheathed his sword back in and concentrated his breathing on his surroundings.
Because there was a mist covering his sight, he didn't rely on it but felt the vibration.
There.
He felt a strong vibration coming from the 3'oclock position. He adjusts his timing and then rushed forward to the 12 o'clock position.
Thunder Breathing First Form: Thunderclap and Flash
He flashed forward in just a few seconds.
Marga on the other side felt sounds rushing towards her but she reacted and it was too late, Tristan already appeared before her, she can't fly high at this moment so she could only use 'Water Slingshot'. She winds up her spear and forms a small ball in the tip of her spear then strikes it toward him.
But when she saw his appearance with surrounding with a few lightning around him… wait… he's a lightning user?
This was the first time she saw him using his element, so she was surprised.
Lightning counter Water
Damn it! I Shouldn't use that.
But it's too late because the two weapons already clashed.
Chiiii
It's obvious that Tristan suppressed her this time.
And with the effect of the combination of lightning and water, the light current became strong and spread toward her.
"Ahhh!"
Marga forced her wings to fly away.
"Huh… Huhh… Huhhh.." She panted while flying.
It was unexpected this time and she was caught off guard by that. She didn't expect that Tristan was a Lightning User, if she knows, she wouldn't impatient to clash with him and she should stay away.
But while in the air she saw another flying slash coming toward her.
"18 Pound Slash!"
She was helpless by this sudden move and could only fight back then she flew by the force of impact but still let her wings be steady in the air.
The mist already vanished and return to everyone's sight.
She saw Tristan reappear a bit as the mist slowly disappeared, she finally his face which looked relaxed and smiling at her.
She felt a bit offended by this smile as if this smile was mocking her.
Then she saw Tristan again make a stance and became alert in the air, ready to stay away.
"1 Sword Style: 9 Pound Slash"
Another Flying Slash came towards her, and she immediately dodges it.
Then…
"9 Pound Slash!"
She dodges again and is greeted by another "9 Pound Slash"
She gritted her teeth and felt helpless because she couldn't fight back.
She can't even activate her elements because if she really does that, for sure, she will be greeted by this flying slash.
"How long will you dance, come on, faster, make it more beautiful!" Tristan teased her while using his sword.
He can feel this woman was just Entry Mastery in using a spear and was a beginner in Element Mastery, but the problem is, she can't even use her element, and could only helplessly fly to avoid it.
…
On the other side where the students gathered, they saw the situation of the battle and couldn't help but be angry, especially the way Tristan mocked Marga.
"What a shameless, scum, if you want to fight, just fight like a man, what the hell are you doing bullying a woman like that!" One of the seniors couldn't help but shouted and pointed angrily at Tristan.
"Yeah, right, she's already lost, you still don't want to stop the fight?"
"Scumbag, stop it right now"
"Marga just forfeit, let me go, I will fight this guy"
"Yeah, you bastard…."
…
Tristan can hear many people scolding behind him, but how could he stop, the mission didn't respond which meant, she still didn't lose the battle yet.
So he looked at her and said: "Why not admit defeat? There's no sense for you to stay here"
Hearing what he said, Marga couldn't help but bit her lip unwillingly, she felt extremely tired from the battle, but she really couldn't accept losing, especially with this guy.
But then, she suddenly heard a voice coming to her: "Senior Marga, just admit defeat. Let me do it"
