Kapitel 19: A Costly Mistake

Chapter 19

After the dust settled, the students could finally see who won. Standing with injuries from head to toe and a busted lip with his eyes burning with a sense of determination was none other than Jake. While Sebastian was lying on the floor unconscious.

Jake walked away from the formed stage to his friends with a limp in his steps. The whole crowd were so silent that if a pin dropped, it will be heard loud and clear.

Everyone was so shocked with their mouths all wide open because they just witnessed something so impossible. A low level, a lower ranked 180 defeated the number 20 of the first years.

He didn't defeat rank 100, 80 or even 50. He just jumped straight to rank 20. Meanwhile Jake was also in awe of his achievement, he felt like it was a dream. Like he was in some type of a dream.

If it wasn't the ding that he heard earlier in his head signifying his victory, he would have doubted it.

Earlier when Jake and Sebastian were about to collide, they both were preparing their most strongest skill to defeat their opponent once and for all. Jake prepared The Triple Threat' skill together with all his strength and Sebastian and him collided. With Jake hitting Sebastian in the stomach and Sebastian hitting him the face therefore busting up his lips and Sebastian fell unconscious from the force of the blow.

Immediately Sebastian fell down, Jake's watch made a ding sound and his rank was updated and he also heard a ding in his head signalling he won the duel but he didn't have time to check the messages because after the adrenaline left his body, Jake started feeling the pain and soreness of everything.

While Jake was making his way to his friends, the whole crowd managed to disperse but before they all left, some military personnel came over to take Sebastian to the clinic. It turns out that the watch also had a system that monitors all the students pulse therefore alerting the officials if a student was knocked out or dead.

Snapping out of his daze, Peter quickly offered to help take Jake to the clinic. But Sophia didn't accompany them. Instead she made up an escuse to leave for somewhere else but the rest didn't think there was anything suspicious going on with her.

After a few minutes, quick minutes of walking, they finally got to the clinic with Jack and Peter lending their shoulder for Jake to hold on. When they got to the clinic, Hayley quickly rushed to take Jake off Peter and Jack's shoulder.

"Seriously?" Hayley exclaimed quickly directing Jake to one of the beds. "What did you do now that landed you in this state?" "This is the third time in a short span of time that you are visiting here."

The friends split up with some of them staying with Jake while others went to check up on Vynn to see how he was doing.

The ones who went to see Vynn were Kate and Jack. When they got to his room, they could see he was awake just staring at the ceiling and then the opening of the door pulled him out of his thoughts.

"Oh, hey guys." Vynn greeted with his voice all cheery.

"Hey, Vynn, how are you doing?" Jack asked walking over to see if his injuries has healed up nicely.

"I'm fine thank you. What are you guys doing here so soon?" Vynn asked.

"It's Jake." Kate replied.

"What happened to Jake?" Vynn asked now sitting up.

"He is just injured from the duel he had with Sebastian." Jack replied.

"What!?!!" Vynn exclaimed. "Duel? I thought you guys talked him out of the duel." Vynn said already getting out of bed to go see Jake.

"Relax, he is fine. He just has some minor injuries." Jack said trying to calm Vynn down.

"Minor injuries!? Do you even know who Jake went up against? The number 20 of the first years and you're telling me he came out with minor injuries." Vynn said.

"Not only did he come out of the duel with minor injuries, he also won the duel. Jake is now the new rank 20 of the first years." Kate said with her face all smiles.

"What!!!" Vynn was so shocked it almost looked like he was going to faint any second now. "But how… how is this possible?"

"We also don't know. We were as shocked as you are now." Jack replied.

"Where is Jake now? I need to see him." Vynn said already getting out of bed.

"Calm down. We already told you that he is fine. Don't go ahead and reopen your wounds." Kate said worriedly.

"No. You don't understand, Jake has just made a big mistake." Vynn said already on his way out.

"Hey! Wait up." Jack said already chasing after Vynn and then grabbing his hand to stop him. "What do you mean by Jake committed a mistake by defeating Sebastian?"

"I don't have time and I can't explain twice so come on, I will explain when I see Jake." Vynn replied already running out of the room to find where Jake is.

Kate and Jack both went after Vynn. And then after a few minutes, they were all now In Jake's room. This time the whole roommates were complete with Sophia and Peter sitting beside Jake and Jake being awake.

Vynn quickly rushed over to Jake's bedside. "How are you feeling? Are you doing ok?"

"Yes, I am. It's just a little bit of injuries. I will be fine soon." Jake answered.

After calming down, Vynn then quickly changed from caring to scolding.

"You fool! What have you done?" Vynn said angrily.

"What do you mean?" Jake replied already trying to sit up.

"Why did you have to play hero? Did I ask you to avenge me?" Vynn said with shaky breath.

"Woah, woah. Calm down will you and explan what you mean." Peter said.

"No, you don't understand the gravity of the mistake Jake just committed." Vynn replied.

"What is it already. Will you tell us and stop worrying all of us here." Sophia said already annoyed by the suspense.

Vynn decided to take in a deep breath to calm down his nerves so he could explain better. "You shouldn't have challenged Sebastian not to talk of beating, defeating and humiliating him like that."

"Why shouldn't I have challenged Sebastian. Do you care to explain better." Jake said.

Vynn sighed and continued. "You shouldn't have challenged and defeated Sebastian because his elder brother is in this academy in the second year. His brother is a second year and currently ranked number 3 among the second years."
