14 Yuno Sylvester [1]

"What are you talking about? I did not poison anyone. Also, was it my fault that your sister is into me?" Roger bluntly said, dumbfounding everyone with their jaws almost dropped.

Yuno couldn't help but hysterically react to how Roger said it. He was kind of uninterested in it and also unbothered by it. And as Yuno looked at Roger with some kind of surprised eyes, his hand trembled.

"You are known as a Skinny. And just after a stupid rumor spread, my sister fell in love with you?!"

That revelation made everyone surprised. Their eyes widened, and just looking at Roger with some kind of skeptical look, they still couldn't believe it.

However, they were more surprised by how Roger responded to it.

"So? It's not my fault anymore. Why don't you talk it to your sister instead of me." Roger said, then sat back in his chair.

Yuno just trembled in the containment of himself. And as he already couldn't stomach Roger, he pointed his fingers at him.

"I challenge you. Even though I don't challenge first, I want to have a fight with you."

Roger sighed and didn't bother to face Yuno. Deep inside, he knew that Yuno was strong and confident in himself. However, that didn't make Roger bothered.

'What an idiot. This is cliche and cringe. How crazy is he to his sister for him to act like that?' Roger merely thought.

At that point, as Yuno was still waiting for his answer, along with the rest of the students, Roger stood up with his head shaking in dismay.

"Go. I'll allow you to punch me three times. And if I don't fall, I'll strike you once. But, if I fall, you can do whatever you want with me." Roger uninterestedly said, which he just gulped down as he felt stupid in saying those words. It was rather idiotic and childish for him, but he thought that this was the only way to end this.

"Hah?! Why would I listen to you? Are you mocking me? Don't underestimate me! You are just a Skinny." Yuno confidently exclaimed, for a second, making Roger think that he must have become stupid because of what happened to his sister.

"Yes, yes. There you are again with that term "Skinny." I am not skinny, and most of all, I really don't like people bothering me. So please end this once and for all."

Then, he glared at Yuno.

Yuno just became silent, and his face turned serious. He felt some aura from Roger that really reeks with annoyance. And as Yuno couldn't handle himself anymore, he accepted the challenge.

"You'll lose your face and, in the end, my sister will forget you," Yuno said, challenging Roger's dignity.

However, inside Roger's mind, he was confused.

'Who the fuck is his sister?'

"Okay, I understand. Let's just deal with this immediately." Roger mumbled, then gazed at Yuno.

Yuno just didn't reply, and quickly clenched his fist into a ball and punched Roger. It made a crisp sound of a thud, and as Roger received that impact, everyone in the room seemed to feel the pain.

'Why are they watching? Were they waiting for me to be down?' Roger raised a thought, feeling ridiculed by the gazes of the audience.

One after another, it immediately reached the third punch, but even with how strong the punches were, Roger was still standing like a statue.

Roger sighed and then wiped his cheeks. He tilted his head simultaneously while Yuno was in great surprise. And just like that, Roger glared at him.

"That's a good punch. It's my turn now." Roger uttered, looking at Yuno with some kind of crazy eyes.

Roger clenched his fist, then, in an instant, he launched a punch at Yuno—a strong one. He was, however, aware of his own strength. He couldn't be careless enough to kill a person with his absurd stats.

And as the punch hit Yuno, he flew straight away, a few tables away from Roger. The tables fell, crumbling sounds resounded, and the students were astounded. They all had their eyes wide and stared at Roger with disbelief in their eyes.

Roger just did something great. He just made a famous person in fighting fly away from him with just a mere punch. It wasn't even considered a serious one. He just straightened his fist and hit Yuno.

While Yuno suffered from the pain in his cheeks, he unconsciously shook his head from being in pain. He almost forgot that he had been punched. He just thought that he was lying down on the wall with a view of messy tables.

In the meantime, Yuno was lightheaded, and as Roger looked at him with a stolid face, he instinctively approached Yuno and offered him a hand.

"Hey, are you okay?" Roger asked him while the room was silent. It was even as if Roger's footsteps were the only sounds heard in a silent room.

Yuno noticed Roger's hand. He just looked at him with a clueless face, as if a kid was being given candy by a stranger.

Yuno finally realized, then he sighed and accepted Roger's hand.

"I will give my sister to you," he said in a devastated tone.

Yuno's face became gloomy. He looked like he just lost his favorite friend.

Roger noticed Yuno's gloomy look, and the second time looking at him, there was even a pouty lip on his face.

Roger immediately let go of his hand and smiled bitterly.

"Nah. Stand up on your own," he said, then turned his back on him.

Yuno was just silent, and as he regained his stable mind, he immediately stood up and reluctantly looked at the students.

"Y-You all, get lost!" he exclaimed, which made the students flinch, immediately following his orders.

Roger just gave him a disdaining glance and sat back in his chair. He then put his feet on the table and started talking.

"What's your problem. Didn't we have an agreement? It was a deal. Don't tell me you're taking it back?"

Yuno shook his head.

"No. I was okay with it, but can I ask you a question? How come you are strong? I thought you were Skinny?" Yuno asked.

Roger just sighed as it was really annoying to him. He always received this question as if a change wasn't an option for him or even a chance for his improvement.

He glared at Yuno from the corners of his eyes and said, "Talk all you want. I don't care what you think about me, so think of an answer by yourself."

It was both annoying and frustrating at the same time. This question was always a hurdle for people's minds around him. Was he really a famous Skinny in the past? Well, he couldn't remember or even bring himself to ask her sister.

"Okay. But can you answer my question? It's a serious one. Did you awaken?" Yuno asked, anticipating Roger's answer.
