The Mysterious Black Magician

It was a student from section A. Except for the elite class, there was section A who had the highest mana capacity.

So everyone, especially those in the lower section, had their brows knitted and frowned, hoping that the person would not choose them. It added more intimidation, the identity of the last participant.

He was a guy who was known for his delinquent acts.

"I-it\'s Roberto Arturo!" One of the students inside the waiting hall shouted the last participant\'s name.

There were many reports about this Arturo guy. He once beat up a student from a lower section.

After Instructor Goki handed him a mic, many of the participants in the waiting hall made a distinct gulping sound, seemingly nervous, most of which were those in the lower section.

.

They noticed a grin on a person\'s face before announcing the name of his chosen opponent.

"Yman Talisman of section D or also known as Crimson!"

"What!"

"Sigh, thankfully, it wasn\'t me. That guy was so scary." 

"....."

Many of the remaining participants sighed in relief after hearing that it wasn\'t their name.

On the other hand, they glanced at the owner of the name.

Yman was being showered by their gaze. However, he wasn\'t a bit worried about it.

"Yman, be careful," Almina whispered to him. She had no idea why most of the students around were so nervous, but she needed to remind him to always be careful. There was no obligation regarding it, but she felt she had to say it. She felt something hard to explain regarding this match.

Must be an intuition.

Also, the other participants around them were talking about that person.

That he was a delinquent and already did some vile acts.

Yman nodded at her and continued towards the stage. He had no idea why this man chose him as his opponent, but after coming up on stage and facing the said person, he finally understood why he chose him.

He remembered this guy. It was the guy who pushed him in the auditorium during the inauguration ceremony.

Right. It was the guy who was the cause that he bumped into Chloe, who at that time was behind him.

Yman wondered if this guy had natural hate towards him. Regardless, he wasn\'t a bit concerned about it. He was not the type of person who was easily triggered by simple provocation. 

\'So this man\'s name was Roberto Arturo,\' Yman thought while facing his old antagonist. He also remebered that time on the cliff where they fought mini golems.

"Okay, you already know the rules so there is no need for me to repeat. If you are ready, then there is no reason to delay it. Okay, Fight!" Announced the referee Instructor Goki.

With a grin on his face, Roberto Arturo produced a massive amount of mana all over his body. Then he rushed towards him. While he was at it, he produced a shining shortsword in his left hand and exhibited a straight bolt approach.

It was a quick movement. And looking at his figure that envelopes with a shining aura, everyone could tell that he was strong. They could not believe that he wasn\'t chosen as part of the elite, just with the density of his mana alone.

Kiko, in the waiting hall, grinned menacingly. This toad had no idea who Roberto Arturo was. He was the son of a renowned military officer. He was a young genius with an unbelievable amount of mana. However, that person purposely suppressed. 

He disliked being in a class full of geniuses. He rather went to a class where he was the one above the rest.

With an ear-to-ear grin on his face, Roberto Arturo leaped to shorten the distance faster. There was only a step away from the two of them. Roberto Arturo raised his sword.

Swiing~!

He swung it!

However, 

"What happened?" A surprise question coming from someone. Even Roberto Arturo himself had widenede his eyes. 

"Nothing happened?"

"It did not hit?"

Someone in the audience exclaimed.

"No! Look!" Another guy pointed out.

Just then, they heard a dull sound which was followed by a metallic noise. When they glanced at the cause for it, they saw an arm holding a shining sword a few steps away, behind Roberto Arturo.

"Aaarrrrggh!"

It was followed by an ear-piercing scream. It was from Roberto Arturo.

Everyone in the waiting hall had uniformed stunned faces. Especially those from section A.

They wondered what happened. They could not believe that Roberto Arturo was now crying in pain. He was the guy who bossed them in the classroom.

It seemed as though Roberto Arturo was a boss inside their classroom. Most of the students in that section were afraid of him.

There was once a time that a student tried to stand in front of him to relinquish his dominance in the room. However, that person got a good beating in return.

Most of them had any suspicion about his true strength. But no one was daring enough to report him. Without proof, it was only a baseless accusation and might be used against them.

Thus, his dominance in the section continued even until now. However, Roberto Arturo was now screaming in agony. On second look, they noticed he lost his arm.

How did it happen?

Most of the students questioned it. As none of them could follow. Only those in the elites and the experts who were in the False Path saw it.

However, most of them fell silent as they wondered how Yman could execute such a quick attack that only those in the False Path could execute.

When they read his statistics, it was recorded there that he was only a level 5 magician?! How did it happen?

Wait. Wasn\'t he a level 4 just yesterday? So he just leveled up? Still, it could not explain his action. His attack was not something that someone at the lower level could perform.

Regardless, they noticed Yman produced a chakram, a type of throwing weapon, using crimson-colored mana? They wondered when he had such mana.

On top of that, creating something using one\'s mana was considered an advanced technique.

Aside from others, Roberto Arturo himself did not expect what was happening. It was already too late when he noticed that person threw it.

At the moment, Yman was forming another chakram on his hand.

Without wasting time, Roberto Arturo produced a vial of red liquid and drank it while at the same time leaped back, distancing himself from him.

Yman secretly chuckled.
