15.45% Why Should I Stop Being a Villain / Chapter 70: Arriving at the final location

Capítulo 70: Arriving at the final location

The crowd cheered as time went on and more and more people encountered each other. Asher had defeated two more participants himself.

Although it was a representative tournament, not many students had entered it. Many were nervous and were not adequately taught to compete with those with special training.

For them, entering seemed like a waste of time, and they would eventually learn and could compete with other privileged students. The World Academy was even better than what an elite family could offer since it had all types of knowledge gathered in one place.

Elite families may have one specialty where they outclass the World Academy, such as Nathaniel Von Greville, who was known as a sword god, and nobody could dare say they could teach Asher better than what he could have learned from Nathan.

The total count of students, including both boys and girls, was around 100, with half of them being boys and the other half being girls.

These participants were the ones who were taught or thought they had a chance at winning. Other than getting injured, which can be treated free of cost by the World Academy, there was no real risk.

As the timer hit the 1-hour mark, Alyssa checked her bracelet and said, "Hmm, 1 hour left. Let's get moving." She carefully hovered down the tree.

"Let's hope I can reach there before the tournament ends and have enough time to fight," she did a deep breath as she channeled her mana and went straight ahead towards the direction of the final location.

Her eyes became a bit dull, and her skin a bit paler, but she was fine as she went deeper into the forest. The terrain was not a problem for her since she was not actually touching the ground. It was just her feet that seemed like they did touch to others if they did not look too carefully.

As time went on, Asher defeated 5 more participants, bringing his total number of tokens to 17. But most of Asher's fights were not being shown on the big screen due to the way he was defeating the other participants.

After his fight with Alan, he was not exactly in a good mood. Not seeing Asher fighting made Lucas sad, but David, who noticed Lucas's look, said that he would watch Asher when all the participants arrived near the final location.

While most of the focus was now on Matthew and Kevin, who were like Asher defeating all their opponents quite skillfully.

"It seems that the participant Matthew is giving his all and not letting Kevin take the lead for his second place," Gazil commented.

Matthew was a swordsman, and although he was not as excellent as Asher, it was enough for him to defeat other participants with relative ease.

"14," Matthew muttered as he looked at his bracelet.

He had short brownish-black hair with a decently handsome face but not enough to be compared with Kevin. He was as tall as Kevin but smaller than Asher.

Matthew sat down and regained his stamina since fighting 5 people till now took a toll on his stamina. But after a few minutes, he got up and went deeper because he wanted the extra tokens that the person on the special zone in the final location would get.

In the girls' tournament, both Elena and Amelia were fighting different participants and gaining tokens. Many people were cheering and were surprised by the performance of both of them.

Although Elena was actively using her mana, she was making sure she recovered enough before going further towards the final location. While Amelia was keeping both her mana and stamina in check.

Elena had now come close to Amelia with her total count nearing 18, while Amelia was at 19. They both had luck eliminating people with two or more tokens.

While Eva was having a much easier time fighting as nobody she encountered had enough firepower to break her barriers, maintaining so many barriers would usually be difficult for a person of her rank. However, her superb mental capacities allowed her to achieve these results, and the fact that she had a talent in barrier-related magic helped her greatly.

The time was ticking and now only 30 minutes were left, and more and more people were getting eliminated. Some of the people got sad after their son or daughter got eliminated, but they were still happy for them for getting selected into the World Academy.

In the Greville VIP room, everyone was happy as Asher and Amelia were still dominating the leaderboard. Livia was cheering and jumping around as Amelia defeated more and more people.

As the tournament was going on, the leaderboard remained the same, and there were still no changes in it.

*BAM*

A fireball hit a tree, but it was not powerful enough to make the tree fall.

"Damn it," the boy cursed.

Kevin jumped around carefully, making sure that none of the spells hit him. He knew that going on the fights would get even tougher, so he didn't want any injury that could affect his performance later.

Kevin thrust his spear, but the boy dodged the thrust. However, he could not block Kevin's second attack as he spun his spear and hit him from the side, injuring his insides and making the barrier activate.

"Huff," Kevin breathed heavily as he recovered from his fight.

"I am quite close," Kevin said as he looked at the change in direction as he went forward.

He stopped, knowing that he should recover his stamina a bit.

"I hope nobody else has eliminated that bastard already," Kevin clenched his fist, remembering Asher.

"Make sure you win, Elena," Kevin said as he leaned his back toward the tree to rest a bit.

Somewhere else,

"Wow, who did you encounter to end up like this?" Sam ducked down to see a participant who had a broken arm and a broken leg.

The guy barely opened his eyes as he was in pain. He looked at the dark-haired boy, almost freaking out, but he saw his eyes were pale green, not red, so he recovered his breathing.

"Red eyes, argh," he spoke, but his face showed how much pain he was in.

"Hmm, let's change our path for now," Sam looked ahead and changed his path a bit, leaving the already eliminated boy behind.

The boy looked at Sam and closed his eyes as he lost his conciousness. The test conductors appeared right after Sam left. They were waiting for Sam to leave the area before taking the boy to medical facilities.

Sam was just behind Asher's tracks, and if he went in the similar direction, he would have faced Asher before the final location, so he changed his tracks.

"Give me a good show, you guys," Sam smirked as he remembered Kevin saying something about the heir of Greville at their waiting room.

He wanted to take advantage of their fights and hit them when they were at their weakest.

The timer was decreasing, and Asher arrived at the final location first as he looked at the small stone platform with the World Academy insignia on it.

"Special Zone," Asher muttered to himself.

He looked around and saw the open field he was standing in. There was no place to hide and attack the guy on the special zone. This meant that the only way to attack someone was to do it without any cover.

It seemed like whoever thought of this tournament wanted many confrontations at the same time. This would result in people teaming together to defeat others.

"It seems Asher Greville is the first one to arrive at the final location!" the camera showed Asher walking around the open grassland.

"And it seems that Kevin Whiteheart and our second-place participant, Matthew, will arrive soon," he spoke as the screen displayed an eagle view, showing that neither of them was too far from the open field.

"The girls are a bit far from their final location. It seems we will finally see some changes in the leaderboard!" Gazil spoke.

"Right now, as you can see on the screen, the scores are not too far apart from each other," Gazil said.

The audience was closely watching the leaderboard, and the same people had maintained their top 5 spots without getting eliminated until now.

While at the final location,

Kevin was the second participant to arrive, and just after him was Matthew. Kevin looked around and saw the special zone, with Asher sitting right beside the platform, not on it.

"Arrogant bastard, let's see how long you can behave that way," Kevin said as he spun his spear around and went towards Asher.

Matthew, who arrived after Kevin, saw a white-haired boy going towards the special zone.

"So he is Asher Greville," he spoke, as he saw a black-haired boy sitting with his sword beside him.

Capítulo 71: Clash of the Top 5

Asher looked at Kevin who was walking towards him, and from a different direction, a face he remembered, Matthew, was also coming towards him.

Asher got up and held his sword as he stared at the two people coming towards him.

"It seems we will see a clash between the top 3 of the boys' leaderboard," Gazil spoke, and the audience cheered loudly. All three of them had their supporters in the crowd, but Matthew had the most, being from a common background, and second was Kevin.

The screen showed Kevin and Matthew walking towards Asher from his left and right respectively.

After they were in the range where they could attack and defend from each other, they stopped.

"I don't know who you are, but stay away from him. He is my target!" Kevin looked at Matthew and spoke.

"The name is Matthew, and why should I listen to you anyway?" Matthew looked at Kevin.

Asher was calm, and his face was indifferent. He was not in the same state as before when he faced Alan. Despite seeing the man who succeeded in almost killing him standing in front of him, he was calm. It was almost like his mind was somewhere else.

"Hahaha, you seem like a tough guy as you managed to arrive here so fast like me, but I will say it again: don't interfere." Kevin glared at Matthew.

"You talk too much," Asher spoke as he sighed, and a wave of killing intent hit Kevin and Matthew.

They got alerted as they raised their weapons at Asher. His crimson-red eyes made Matthew gulp as he felt fear from Asher. On the other hand, Kevin was cautious, but this much bloodlust was not enough to stagger him. Even Asher knew that Kevin had trained in hunting dungeon beasts like him, so he was also used to experiencing this much killing intent.

Asher dashed towards Kevin immediately and raised his sword as he swung it. Kevin was surprised at first, but he managed to block his strike. However, after he felt the force behind his attack, his eyes widened.

'Why does his strength seem higher than mine? Is he already an E+ Rank!?' Kevin thought to himself.

"HAAH," Kevin pushed his spear and back stepped, getting into a proper stance. He pointed the tip of his spear at Asher, making it clear that he was now ready for his attack.

Asher turned towards Matthew and dashed towards him, ignoring Kevin.

"What the-?" Kevin was shocked by Asher's move. Challenging another person while being in a duel was dumb.

"This bastard is mocking me," Kevin clenched his jaw as he saw Asher swing his sword in a similar manner, but unlike Kevin, Matthew sidestepped to dodge it.

Matthew immediately swung at Asher, but as his sword was nearing Asher's hand, his sword got countered.

"What!?!" Matthew immediately back stepped away from Asher, but he did not let his guard down.

Kevin frowned, seeing Asher's skill while countering Matthew's sword. But he went ahead and dashed towards Asher to initiate his attack, spinning his spear in his right hand.

He swung his spear, but Asher back stepped and dashed towards Kevin immediately, performing a slash that made a light cut on Kevin's shoulder. The suit would have stopped any major injury, but a small one would go through it.

It worked more as a protective device than armor, and it was meant to work that way.

"Argh," Kevin stepped away from Asher's range, touched his shoulder, and looked at his hand to see a bit of blood on it.

Kevin glared at Asher, unable to believe that he was being cornered by him even though they were two against one. It hurt his pride more than anything to see Asher's indifferent and calm face.

"Don't you underestimate me!" Kevin said, channeling his mana as his speed doubled.

*Clang*

Small sparks were produced as Asher diverted Kevin's spear with his sword, but Kevin did not stop. He continued to attack Asher, but he was unable to break his defense.

Meanwhile, Matthew was looking for an opening to eliminate Asher. He recognized Asher as a greater threat than Kevin and was not going to waste this opportunity, no matter how unfair or unethical it might seem.

He tried to get into Asher's blind spot while he was busy dealing with Kevin, but Asher was not even focused on Kevin at the moment. He was just toying with him.

"He is strong, but he's going to lose now that it's 1v2," Lishia spoke.

"I don't think so," Rewilh said, focused on the screen watching Asher.

"What amazing footwork," he thought as he watched Asher counter Kevin with perfect footwork.

In the Greville VIP room, Lucas was watching Asher's duel with all his focus. Even Arthur was looking forward to seeing what Asher would do now that he was in a 1v2 situation.

"Where is my dumb brother?" Nate thought to himself as Damian wasn't shown on the screen for a long time.

As Asher toyed with Kevin, who was getting more and more agitated by his unsuccessful attempts to breach Asher's defenses, Asher made Kevin take a step back and felt a sword approaching his back. Asher turned and tilted his head to his left, and Matthew's sword missed Asher's neck.

Matthew looked into a pair of red eyes staring at him, but before he could move his sword, Asher ducked and punched Matthew right in the gut, making him cough.

Asher channeled his mana, coating his hands and legs, increasing his speed and strength even further. He did not give Matthew any escape as he kept attacking him, making him cough up blood. As he was performing a kick to Matthew's face, he noticed Kevin attacking his back with his spear.

Attacking someone from behind was not Kevin's usual style at all, but he was too agitated to even think about his morals.

Asher bent backwards, but Kevin was prepared for it and pushed his spear downwards. Asher pushed the ground with his legs, shifting himself to his right and dodging Kevin's attack.

Matthew wiped the blood from his mouth, channeling his mana to coat his arms and increase his strength. He tightened his grip on his sword and swung it at Asher. Both Matthew and Kevin were now attacking Asher together, which seemed a bit cowardly and made the crowd angry at both of them. More people cheered for Asher, but both of them were swept by Asher's flow as he kept toying with them. Only those who had experience with battles could tell that Kevin and Matthew were on the losing end.

"Why is Kevin losing to that bastard!" James said loudly, breaking the armrest of his chair.

"It seems the rumors about the heir of the Greville family were true after all," a person sitting in one of the VIP rooms spoke.

"Tell the chairman about this," he ordered his assistant, who immediately left the room.

Asher countered both Kevin's and Matthew's attacks as they grew more and more tired. He kicked Matthew in the stomach, making him fall to the ground, and immediately blocked Kevin's spear thrust with the edge of his sword. Both of them were now pushing each other's weapons, but Asher had the advantage, as he was a minor rank higher than Kevin.

"You are also weak, like that dumb bitch," Asher smirked, quietly muttering so that only Kevin could hear him.

"YOU FUCK-" Kevin cursed, but midway through, Asher pushed his spear, making him lose his balance. Kevin saw Asher turn and land a round kick on his face, making him fall to the ground.

Asher looked at both Matthew and Kevin, who were on the ground. But as he stepped forward, he noticed some mud shackles in between the thick grass. He dodged as he saw the shackles gripping the space where his legs were currently. He knew who used this kind of trick and turned to see a black-haired boy with pale green eyes, Sam Allister.

"Impressive, you even dodged that!" Sam spoke as he smiled towards Asher.

"Hehe, looks like you got your ass beaten," Sam looked to the right and saw Kevin, who was getting up with his eyes full of anger.

Sam pointed his spear at Asher and spoke, "Both of you, let's beat this guy first, then we can decide the winner amongst us later," he said.

"I don't need your help!" Kevin shouted as he stood with a cut on his mouth from Asher's kick.

"Neither do I," Matthew spoke with one of his hands still on his stomach where Asher had punched him many times.

"Well, I know I can't defeat him, and neither can you guys, so let's fight together," Sam spoke but he saw Asher raise his eyebrows slightly.

"Took you so long?" Asher questioned with a smirk on his face, confusing Sam, who looked behind to see Damian, who had many cuts on his body, coming towards them with a blood-covered sledgehammer on his shoulder.

"Cut me some slack, I am not good with directions," Damian shouted as he smiled.

Meanwhile, in another final location, Amelia, Elena, and Eva were looking at each other, neither of them moving, waiting for someone to make the first move.
