Chapitre 45: Chapter 45- Daniel (Revised)
Chapter 45- Daniel
Dave and the other qualified students who were set to compete for the top 10 spots representing the academy lined up on the stage.
After a one-hour rest, the air was charged with fighting spirit, and the anticipation for an intense battle and the display of their true power loomed.
Dave observed each contestant, noting that most of the 4th-year students were at Top-tier King or Peak-tier King levels. Their proud expressions reflected their confidence in securing a slot to represent the academy.
Among them were nobles' sons and daughters, as well as geniuses from less privileged backgrounds, invited by professors or the principal.
Lina took the stage to explain the rules for this final round. "This round will be different from the previous one."
She glanced at the contestants and continued, "It will be a battle royale, and only the last 10 students standing will be declared winners."
Shock rippled through the crowd, as the idea of a battle royale seemed unfair to those with friends on the stage. However, it was the law of the jungle, where the strong preyed on the weak.
Immediately, groups formed, with Rose and Dave having the smallest group, as no one dared to team up with them due to their special status.
Some students from the same year who had also entered the top 10 wanted to form a team with Rose and Dave, but Rose rejected the idea. She had no desire to carry weaker individuals to the grand finals.
Rose knew that with Dave on her team, her spot in the grand finals was practically guaranteed, but she aimed to face as many challenges as possible.
Dave, aware of the powers of the 4th years, assured her that they could win.
Dave sensed that no one dared to attack them due to their special status. He preferred not to expend excess energy in these fights, feeling as if the sin skill - Sloth was influencing his behavior.
..............................
Lina observed their readiness and promptly announced, "Start!"
"Go! Go! Go!"
"Go, Princess!"
"Go, Young Master Dave!"
"Go, ******!"
Cheers filled the arena as excitement mounted to see who would last until the end.
"Go, Dave, my love!"
"If you win, I'll let you do anything to me."
Susan's enthusiastic proclamation sparked envy among many girls, leading them to join the cheering.
"Damn!"
The guys, overhearing Susan's words, drooled, and their hatred for Dave reached its peak. Though their stares could kill, they dared not show it, fearing his status.
"Go, Young Master Dave, I love you!" a girl shouted, triggering more female cheers. The competitive spirit rose, and many girls didn't want to lose to Susan, who often mocked them.
Numerous boys were left dumbfounded to witness their crushes passionately cheering for Dave. Some of these women hailed from noble and wealthy families, making it a rare sight.
Dave smiled at the crowd, well aware that he was accumulating numerous sin points, expecting the count to be astronomical after this event.
Many students started to fight but they avoided Rose and Dave. Dave expected this as they didn't have the guts to offend them both.
Swissh!
Boom!
A student was suddenly sent flying off the stage, his body bleeding. All eyes turned to the attacker, recognizing him as Daniel.
Daniel didn't hail from a wealthy family; he was a poor boy adopted by the principal.
Standing at 170 cm, he had striking blue hair and a handsome demeanor, carrying a long sword on his back.
Known as "Sword 1," Daniel had gained a reputation for defeating opponents with a single sword attack.
Rumors circulated that his talent surpassed the previous year's champion, the prince. However, Daniel was absent last year, being outside the continent.
The principal, spotting his potential, decided to adopt him. Daniel lived up to expectations, easily reaching the peak-tier king level at the age of 19.
Daniel was adept at using swords, having achieved the level of "Sword Master."
His proficiency extended to easily comprehending sword techniques, and rumors circulated that he had even created his own.
Even Dave sensed that Daniel was more than he seemed. Curious, Dave decided to check Daniel's status.

=======
Dave compared Daniel's status to Lina's previous status as a low-tier emperor and noticed that Daniel's stats were nearly on par with a low-tier emperor.
This revelation meant that Daniel could potentially contend with opponents beyond his current power level, showcasing his exceptional talent.
In Dave's eyes, Daniel was undeniably a genius, likely to become the most outstanding in the future if Dave himself didn't exist.
Unfortunately for Daniel, he was born in the same era as Dave, who had already surpassed him despite being younger.
Dave pondered whether Daniel might be a protagonist in a familiar plot—a tale where a poor boy is adopted by someone of high status, experiences rapid strength growth, and possesses a unique, deadly sword technique.
The Phantom Sword Technique is a special and powerful way of using a sword that Daniel Schreign has mastered.
It's known for being tricky and deadly, involving quick and precise movements that are hard for opponents to see and defend against.
The name "Phantom" suggests that Daniel's attacks with this technique might seem almost ghost-like or really tough to notice.
With this technique, Daniel can make attacks quickly and accurately, making it tough for others to predict or counter his moves.
What makes the Phantom Sword Technique effective isn't just the physical part but also the mental impact it has on opponents.
It creates a feeling of uncertainty and fear during a fight.
Daniel likely keeps the specific details of the technique a secret, adding to its mysterious and dangerous reputation.
In simple terms, the Phantom Sword Technique shows how skilled and clever Daniel is with a sword, making him a strong and formidable opponent in battles.
