Chương 21: Duel

I had raised my hands and got into a boxing stance. One of the young masters cronies came charging at me so I kicked him in the knee and punched him in the throat.

The next one that came running got punched in his jaw knocking him the fuck out. Mans went to sleep. Slumberman was doing his job.

A roundhouse kick sent the third guy flying backwards. Only 2 of his 5 cronies were. They were hesitant to just charge in but after a few seconds of hesitation, one of them charged at me and tried tackling. I moved out of the way and stuck my leg out and tripped him over.

The last guy did not want to fight me. I knew that because he had this 'please let me hit you' expression on his face. Despite all of that he charged at me. This is what you get when you have an overbearing manager.

I also charged at him and launched myself at him. I grabbed him by the collar and stepped on both of his feet. I then rolled back onto the ground and threw him onto the wall.

"So where you next?" I asked the young master. He was shocked as he did not think that they would all be folded. He was expecting them to beat me up but oh, how turn the tables have!

He looked around and could not find anyone else. It was then that he started speaking utter rubbish and gibberish.

"I challenge you to a duel. Do you dare to accept it? Or are you to scared to accept it?"

I sighed and shook my head.

"No, I'm not scared. It's just that I have better things to do, for example watching your moms new video."

I could see his veins pop out of his neck. He couldn't attack me. Young masters or children of higher status were not allowed to fight other students unless it was in self defence or a duel. This was why they usually had cronies backing them up who usually did most of their work for them. In fact they were the ones who had jumped me as soon as I had entered Damiens body.

"Fine ok." I said as I raised my hands. "I accept your challenge so let's go." I said.

The young master stood in front of me in the near empty arena. There were only 10 or so other students and they were interested in where this fight was going. There were not that many students as it was a Sunday and most of them would return during the evening.

A teacher also stood inbetween us and I knew he was disgruntled. I could understand why he was angry. He was a teacher not some referee to spoilt children who liked fighting.

"Are you sure you don't want a weapon? As much as I want to kill you, it does not feel good beating down on weaklings." What bullshit! Weren't his goons just beating on another student before i met them?

"Don't worry I got a weapon." I said as I kissed my fist. "Come at me anytime, I'm in a hurry man."

The teacher blew the whistle which signalled the duel had started. I placed my hands in my pocket and made a provoking facial expression at him which pissed him of. Despite that he did not charge at me blindly. He slowly crept up to me with his guard up inching ever so closer.

"Are you scared of me?" I asked. "My hands are in my pockets and yet you maintain your distance. Now I can see why your father loves your younger brother more than you."

I smirked at him and I knew that set him of because he charged wildly at me. Of course I knew his family situation which was why I insulted his precious and brought up unpleasant memories. A wise man once said 'To know thy enemy is helpful in pissing of them of.' I think it was Sun Tzu.

Yi Biloki Jae was his name and his family was in shambles. His father considered him a disappointment and so did everyone else. He was an attention seeker which was why he spent most of his time causing problems so that his father would notice. His father would not even be bothered with such nonsense as he would send a servant to deal with it. The only person who actually gave him attention and love was his mother. But what kind of mother would not provide that for her child? You could see why it was easy to provoke him.

BANGGG!

SLUMP!

The young masters body fell to the ground after 6 bullets injured him. They hit him in his thighs and caused him damage and severe pain.

I removed my hands from my pocket to reveal the revolver that Aliza had given me.

"ARRRRGGGHH!"

He shouted in agony as he held his thighs. The teacher was surprised and so was everyone else as no one had been expecting such a thing.

What? Did they actually think that I would fight him face on? Despite the fact that he grew up in a rich environment with no sense of danger he knew a bit of martial arts that put him a cut above the rest. Of I had fought him head first it would be stupid.

It would be Grizzly Bear versus a silver back gorilla. It may seem like an equally matched fight but that was far from the truth. In this case I was the silver back gorilla. I had just awakened Hyoksi and did not know how to apply it in a fight and it would be better for me if I kept my gigantification ability a secret. That way I could use it as a trump card or a secret weapon.

"Alright I win the match." I said as I reloaded my revolver. "Can I go?" I asked the teacher.

"Yes..."

"No don't go... I still haven't given up yet..." Yi shouted. "I can still go on."

"No, the fight has ended, you have been rendered unable to fight so this duel has officially ended."

"No... he used a... a weapon... he said he didn't want... a weapon..."

"Wrong, if you remember correctly I said I already have a weapon." I said. I turned to the teacher. "He is losing a lot of blood, I think I nicked an artery, should he not be taken to the infirmary?"

The teacher sighed and raised her hand. A small bubble filled with green liquid encased Yi. She then walked of with the bubble floating next to her.
