2 Chapter 2

Ashewell and Kent got up to the stage to fight. Kent took out his NEO box and look at Ashewell while drooling. Kent was really creepy looking. Kent realize that he was drooling and he quickly slurp back his drool and wipe away the remaining. Ashewell want to puke at the sight of seeing Kent like this. "How about you just give up?" Kent said. "No! I prefer to fight!" Ashewell reply. This cause Kent to hype up as he also want to fight but does not want to injure Ashewell. His father is a high rank officer and if he did not even win this fight then he would lose face for his father. Kent look at Ashewell with his creepy look and lust. He just want to have Ashewell. "I need to make sure that this creep learn a lesson or else he would bother me all the time." Ashewell said to himself.

Kent then press the NEO box against his chest. *clank* The box hit Kent chest and a suit of armor began to cover his whole body. After 3 second, Kent was clad in a fully body armor suit and he was around 8 ft tall. It was similar to a knight but instead of all metal. It was made from various alloy and material which withstand 2 tons pound of force. "An offense NEO suit and it's a heavy class as well!" A freshmen said. "Take out your NEO suit and face me!" Kent said. "I don't have one!" Ashewell reply. "Here take mine!" A female sophomore said and toss her NEO box to Ashewell. "Thank!" Ashewell caught her NEO box and press it against his chest. Her NEO suit was a support class. "A support class huh?" Ashewell said. "Ha! A support class! I will show you that support class are to always stay at the bottom! And you will be mine sooner or later!" Kent said. "An offense class against a support class is the same as a rank S against a rank F!" Umji friend said. Umji bit her lip as she know the difference between an offense and support class.

There were many different types of class but the most common and most use class are offense, accel, tank and bruiser. "Ready whenever you are! How about you go with the first attack!" Kent said. Ashewell ignore Kent as he still want to get use to this NEO suit. Kent just look at Ashewell action but did not engage as he know that he will win no matter what. Kent just laid back and wait until Ashewell is fully ready. After 30 second, Ashewell got use to the NEO suit. "Ready!" Ashewell said. "Alright, lets start!" Kent said. *Clank* Kent was sent flying and did not know why. Kent roll 5 feet away away from Ashewell. Kent quickly got up and look at Ashewell in confusion. Everyone watching was shock as they just saw Ashewell disappear and appear in front of Kent.

The girl that lend her NEO box to Ashewell was the most shock. "How can she do that? My NEO suit is just a support class not an accel or offense class!" She said to herself in shock. Support class always stay behind the line to provide cover for the other class. This is why support class were look down upon because they would always stay behind and do nothing much other than covering fire for the other class. But they play such an important role yet no other class would even try to recognize them. Kent got serious as he know the he can lose if he is not careful this time. *boom boom boom* 8 missile were fire from Kent shoulder and went after Ashewell. Ashewell took out the pistol on the NEO suit right leg. Ashewell aim at the missiles and bang. Every shot would cause a missile to explode. Ashewell did not miss any of his shot and was able to fully disarm all of the missile sent after him. Kent sent another 8 missile but were quickly dealt with by Ashewell.

Kent then realize that this would not do so he took out his saber. Ashewell also did the same and took out his own saber. Kent charge at Ashewell and slash at him. Ashewell lift up the saber and block Kent attack. *clank* Sparks fly everywhere. "I will win and you will be mine!" Kent said. "I already said no thanks." Ashewell reply. "Does not matter! You are mine when I win!" Kent said. They push each other off and look at each other for a good 10 second. Ashewell took the first initiate first and charge at Kent. Ashewell got to 3 feet of Kent before jumping into the air. Ashewell did a spin and was like an unstoppable top. Kent saw this and jump backward. Kent was aware of Ashewell attack as he know what that attack could do to him. Kent follow up with an attack as soon as Ashewell land. *Clank*

Ashewell block Kent attack and follow up with a knee kick to Kent face. *clank* Kent was sent staggering backward. "Warning, critical damage to vision!" A voice warn Kent. "I know! God damn it! How can a support class be this aggressive!" Kent curse as he could see that the glass on his helmet had broke. Ashewell follow up with a 720 roundhouse kick and sent Kent flying a few feet before landing on the ground. Ashewell did not give Kent anytime to rest. Ashewell charge and slash at Kent. *clank* Kent right arm was severely damage. Kent grunt and swing at at Ashewell. Ashewell jump back to avoid Kent attack. "Adios amigo." Ashewell said and point the pistol at Kent head. Kent look at the barrel wide eye as he could not believe that he would lose to a support class like this. *Bang* Ashewell destroy Kent NEO suit and it retract. Kent NEO suit retract back to a NEO box and what's left was Kent lying there glaring at Ashewell.

Ashewell retract the NEO suit. "I win and you should be a man of your word." Ashewell said and return to his group. Everyone just stare at Ashewell as they have never thought that he would win. An offense and support class has such a huge difference but Ashewell makes it look so easy. Ashewell return the Neo box to its owner. "Thank you for lending me your NEO suit." Ashewell thank her. "No problem! Tiffany Grasve! But you can call my Fany." Tiffany said and hold out her hand. "Ashewell Ector. A pleasure to meet you." Ashewell said and shook her hand. "The same goes here." Tiffany reply. Kent got up and went away without going back to his group. "He might be going to the engineer room to have his NEO suit repair." Kent friends said. "Whatever, forget about him. Alright everyone, follow me! I will be your new guide for now!" He said and lead them away. Erin look back at Ashewell before turning away.

There was another group here but they were a bit far from the Lagoon and Sempiternal group. "Now I really want to fight her. She seem to have quite the experience." Durmon said to himself. "Alright everyone! We have seen their fight, we should go now as you all need to get to your class as well!" The guide for the Pyrrhic group said. The Pyrrhic group went away. Umji just stare at Ashewell as he could not believe what she had just witness. A support class overpower an offense class. This was something that everyone support class wish that they could do. Umji quickly recollect herself. "Alright everyone! Follow me as I need to get you all to your class now!" Umji said. While walking to get to their class. Ashewell got to know Tiffany more. They have fun talking to each other but had to separate as Tiffany need to get to her class. "I will see you later. Here is my contact info." Tiffany gave Ashewell her contact and wave to him. Ashewell wave back.

"Alright, you all, go and look at the board on the wall and take your class schedule! I am done here so I will be taking my leave!" Umji said and left. All of the freshmen from all 3 school went to the board and look for their schedule stable on the board. Ashewell squeeze through the crowd and arrive to the board. "Lets see here." Ashewell look through the countless of schedule and finally found his. "Class F F-F." Ashewell look through his schedule and went to look for his class. There was a map with their schedule so it makes it easier to fine their class. "What is the point of a map if my class is F. Letter F always give me a bad feeling?" Ashewell was unsure if he was right. Ashewell look at the academy map and found that his class was about 10 minute away from where he is now.

"This is going to be a pain." Ashewell was about to fold his schedule but something caught his eye. "Ranking of class. 1st Z-Z, 2nd S-S, 3rd A-A, 4th B-B, 5th C-C, 6th D-D, 7th E-E, 8th F-F." Ashewell look at the class ranking. "Seem like my class ranking is last rank and not just last but at the very last." Ashewell sigh and put away his schedule. He could hear students talking about what class they got and some even brag about their class. Ashewell saw that Erin and Durmon were surround by many student. "Wow you got Z Z-Z class! Good job! That is what a Drake family should get!" Students around Erin said. "Z Z-Z class also! As expected from an Axel!" Students around Durmon said. Ashewell just ignore this and drag himself to his class. Erin saw Ashewell looking down and smirk. "She must have got a low class. There could only be one beauty here and that is me!" Erin said to herself. Durmon on the other hand didn't really care. But he would occasionally take peek at Ashewell.

Ashewell soon arrive to his class after 10 minute of climbing up countless of steps. Ashewell saw that there were many students going to where he is going also. Every students here does not have a smile on their face. They were all very gloomy. "What is with this atmosphere?" Ashewell ask himself. Students here had a gloomy face because they were nervous not because they got a low class. They know that they will get a low class as they are the less talent and less genius among their peers. Ashewell soon arrive to his class and was surprise. He thought that he class would look messy and torn down. But it was different from what he had imagine it to be. It was like a 5 star hotel. No wonder people keep saying that, visiting NEO-Xeno academy is the same a visiting a 5 star hotel." Ashewell said to himself and open the door to his class.

The door slide open. Ashewell walk inside but found that there was no one here yet. "I am the first one to show up I guess." Ashewell said and went to sit at the front. Ashewell wait for 5 minute but no one show up yet, not even the professor. Ashewell press a few invisible button on his left arm. *Ding* "Welcome Ashewell." A voice greet Ashewell. "So how goes the new modification NC? Is it done yet?" Ashewell ask NC. NC is Ashewell assistance that Ashewell create. "All done and just need you to inspect it." NC reply. "Ooo nice! Show me." Ashewell said. *Bzzz* A NEO suit appear in front of Ashewell. It was about 9 ft tall and was not very bulky. It was very slime for a NEO suit and it would be consider a light class among the NEO class.

The helmet on Ashewell NEO suit was scary looking. It was similar to a Japanese oni mask that was emerald color. The back of the helmet has something similar to a facehugger acting as the back helmet part. The tail of the facehugger make the whole helmet even more cool looking. The whole armor was made from various alloy, ranging from steel, titanium, and the stongest metal know to mankind, naro ekcrone. The upper armor has a shoulder guard on the left and there were a few naro ekcrone used as design armor plates around the armor waist and chest area. The whole upper armor was dark blue except for the few crimson naro ekcrone used on the waist and chest area. The lower half of the armor had pattern intertwine like snakes and was also dark blue. Overall, Ashewell NEO suit was different and better looking than all of the other NEO suit here.

Ashewell walk around the suit and was satisfy with everything. "Good, very good! You did a good job NC." Ashewell said. "Thank you." NC reply. "Alright since everything is in all good. I guess I will go back to sitting and wait for more people to arrive." Ashewell sigh and turn off the hologram. Ashewell wait for a few more minute before he heard the door slide open. A woman in her later 20s walk in. Ashewell just stare at her and could guess that she is his professor because she does not wear a student uniform. "Good morning professor!" Ashewell stood up and greet his professor. "Good morning to you too. There will be more student that will join you." She said. Ashewell heard this and just nod.
