10 After Noah

Earlier...

The nine participants, who were left by Noah by his quick-decision making, got agitated by Noah who was "acting" cool in front of the Princess of the Mist.

Although the Princess didn't really look like she thought of anything about Noah but five of the guys (excluding emo guy), was frustrated about some enigma-looking guy appearing in front of one of the five Princesses of Asia.

Especially Vasco, he was biting through his shirt as he saw another cool guy get all the spotlight.

"Damn that kid, trying to act cool."

Vasco cried in silence as the shirt muttered his voice. Vasco overreacting actually pierced through emo guy's patience as he actually walked and stood beside him.

"He's actually cool... unlike you."

"What'd ya say, you emo freak?!"

"We've been childhood friends and you still won't call me by my name?"

"Okay then... Blake Freak."

"What'cha say?!?!"

The two head-butted each other as their eyes looked like it was feasting for blood. The other guys just looked at them like they were watching 7-year-olds fighting.

"What are those guys doing, tsk?"

One of the girls watched them in disgust as her rainbow-colored pigtails, swayed away as she turned around with her hands closed beneath her breast. She has a mature body and a good-looking face, although she sounds like she has a bad attitude.

"Don't be like that sis, the princess is gonna hear you..."

"What's so great about her, anyway?"

Another girl asked pigtails to calm down. Her black hair covering her entire face, so it's actually hard to see her expression. Although there was a bit of skin shown, it looks like she was blushing with her sight towards the Princess of the Mist.

"So are you guys not gonna chase that guy? Cause I do..."

A blonde guy asked everyone in the place as he just smiled and looked at everyone with a gentle face. He was quite extravagant, with clothes that belonged to expensive brands and a hair that's quite questionable. (Too formal.)

The blonde guy looked back at the hanging puppet as he mumbled in his thought...

"That guy acting all anonymous in front of Princess Mysty, I'm more handsome than him. I just now it! I'm gonna kill that guy!" — and this is his real personality, a completely narcissistic guy who has a crush on the Princess of the Mist.

"Like hell, I'm gonna let that guy beat me to it!"

Vasco answered Mr. Narcissistic with his fist showing.

He opened his fist as his mana started to gather in his arms. The mana continued to compress against a small space in his palms as something appeared in the middle of the concentrated mana.

A small metallic ball, the size of a marble, appeared. Vasco straightened his arm and held it with his other hand. He targeted the puppet as he pressed down the marble.

With only a flick his hands, the marble launched at lightning speed. Even much faster than Noah's.

Then, what sounds like the wall hit by the marble echoed throughout the room.

Professor Jones looked at the puppet to see nothing wrong with it. Yet, he looked at Vasco and looked really confident, he pointed to the puppet for Professor Jones to really focus on the puppet.

There was smoke emitting in the puppet's head. Professor Jones used his aura in his eyes to see that there was a hole on the puppet's head, a really small one perhaps.

"A transformation-type that can use a bit of control-type, and at such a young age."

Professor Jones was surprised and his smile definitely looked like he has some ulterior plans. He was about to open the gate when the blonde guy stopped him from opening it further.

"Stop right there!"

"What are you doing, you punk?"

Vasco shouted at the blonde guy as he started sweating.

"U-uhm... Ah! If you go now, you'll be no different than that arrogant guy!"

"He just made that up..." — The people thought...

"That's actually smart of you!" — And Vasco believed it.

The blonde guy whispered to Vasco's ears as Vasco just happily agreed like he was obeying some dumb boss' orders.

"That's a great idea! We should go together!"

"..."

The whole place went silent as someone from behind stepped up to Vasco. A gigantic guy that looked like he was in his thirties. He was muscular but not as muscular as Professor Ronson.

"What's that supposed to mean, ya little runt?"

"Did you just call me a runt?"

"What if I did?"

"You wanna fight?"

Suddenly, Vasco found someone to fight again.

"What a loser..." — The pigtail girl was disgusted once again as she closed her hands and turned her back away from the fight.

A girl suddenly ran towards the puppet as she jumped before reaching past the red line. Although she shouldn't be able to reach it, her leg looks like it was on fire as the flame launched out and hit the puppet.

"Is that a pass, Professor Jones?"

"Isn't that cheating!"

The pigtail girl exclaimed as she looked the Chinese girl with intimidating eyes. The girl was wearing a blue-tunic robe. Her hair was formed into a bun and her eyes were dark. She wore a skirt with dark stockings on her legs. So it was easy to think for Pigtails to see her as someone Chinese.

"Now we have an arrogant girl too?"

"You say something, Jìnǚ?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

The Pigtail and the Chinese Girl sent gazes to each other that it actually looked like lightning was sparking between them.

"That was a pass."

"What?!"

"There rule said that you will need to hit the puppet without touching the red line and the floor after that."

Professor Jones explained as Pigtails looked at Chinese Girl to see the girl pull her lower eye and letting out her tongue, "Bleee."

"You wanna fight?!"

"Bring it, Jìnǚ!?"

(Stop it, sis....)

Suddenly, the first test became a battlefield.

The Princess of the Mist just looked at the situation and hoped she followed the guy that went before him.

"What a mess..."
