Chapter 28: A Promised Fight

"Huh, why is he screaming that?"

Sunny looked at the old man. They were in staring contest then a realisation shot him strong, which Sunny noticed.

"Wait, that can have strong magic impact and that can change many parts of the body, like brain unconsciousness."

Sunny just looked at the man. The monitors were really HD so she could see well through them. She also did not understanding what the old man spouted.

He kept on mumbling, "but how did he break free from it so fast? He wouldn't...."

His face gleamed with jewellery everywhere.

"His magic is so strong, he broke free!!!"

The smiled scared her.

What is he talking about? The magic training machine he got mixed up with a baby and a devil? Is he really stupid then?

She showed her face to him, her eyes gazing into him with disappointment and her mouth just showed disgust.

He sighed.

It will be harder control her when she hits puberty, that's for sure.

He thought, not realising his own stupidity.

Eader was still puzzled, he saw people surrounding them, mumbling. One of them was Samuel, baffled by the turn off events.

Close to him was Adam.

The fact that he beat both was a surprise to him, he was mad at his underlings for failing the job. Then again he could tell it was close, he did have skill.

Samuel was in awe by how he fought, it did confuse him that he had taken his sword out of his bag, but it was fine because he beat the two people that beat him up.

Gramps smiled like seeing his team score a goal in football, "ok then, let see just how strong this guy is?"

Sunny was looking at the place, waiting for the next move from Eader to start, ignoring the old mans weird words.

"Hey, you Buffon, let's fight!" Eader shouted, with a sly grin. He gave up thinking about it, even though he knew in the back of his mind it was Gramps's fault.

He moved a bit closer, dragging them with him, as they were close to the gate, and people were still there, some walking when a few watched. Adam gave a threatening gaze," fine then, you want to do this. Bring it!"

Mythra was a bit puzzled by the rumour that was going around. She had not told anybody that he was the transfer guy but he had somehow caused himself in a mess. Evalynn was next to her, fidgeting a lot.

"Did they find out? I told you it would be better to tell him," her voice was staring to raise.

Mythra got annoyed. "Oh will you stop it!"

She noticed there was somebody else in the hallway: it was Pyra

Pyra noticed them in the distance, so Pyra quickly closed the gap, "hi," said in a friendly voice. "Hi," Mythra replied, giving no smile.

"What were you talking about?"

She asked curiously who they were talking about. he also screamed at Evalynn which normally never happens.

"Oh, nothing important," Evalynn said, she talked to her a few times but was still kind of nervous talking to her and calming down from her screaming at her. The three then started walking away, talking about things, mainly Evalynn.

Mythra had took a breath and started to feel tranquil.

***

Jennifer was surprised by Eader beating the pear, giving a happy sigh. Adam was enraged and the fact that he called him out was infuriating, especially with people watching.

"I will personally beat you to a pulp," he called threateningly.

Unfazed by the threat, Eader replied "come on then, you twat," he smiled vividly like a child. Adam summoned his sword, a beautiful shade of orange on it, just like the video.

It was glowing with pure radiation, even people looked shocked seeing it even though some saw it before. He ran to him slashing down, Eader dodged the sword. He blocked the side strike, he then tilted his sword a bit towards him which made Eader's sword slide off as Adam steps back making the sword miss him.

Eader then quickly adapts to the situation and runs in with the grained sword wavy, maybe missing the impact, but it hit; why was because Adam made him, this lead to be able to do close the gap and gave him a higher chance of hitting him, which succeeded, making him roll back- luckily he making him avoid doing a huge impact on him.

Despite this, the pain was severe even though it was a scratch.

"The guy is good, he has a lot of experience and by the way, his sword is radiating. It must have good magic in it," Gramps said with his hand carrying his chin, commentating as they watched.

"But Eader survived the attacks so isn't that good?"

Sunny looked at Gramps confused, his face went up a bit," yes he did, thanks to my training," he said the last part in a prideful way. "But it still does not help him too much, with a person with much more experience and control with his fruity sword."

That made Sunny's tummy grumble, giving a sour face. Eader moved a gained distance as he could not control his thoughts because of the pain.

He then looked at it and saw his skin go bright red. "Not a surprise from Adam," one of the people watching murmured, moving his head to his friend.

Adam gave a grand smile, "Hurts doesn't it, my sword can generate acid and make the secret of my sword, making every wound painful," he said with great pride. His sword's acid was very strong as acidic as lime, he prided on it, and that was how he beat his opponents with, some rare cases even melted the sword.

Then Sunny got curious and asked Gramps a good question," if it's acidic, why doesn't it burn the fake sword then," she said curiously. Gramps gave it some thought. Eader asked the same question and came to a logical conclusion.

If the acid is capable of burning some swords, then Gramps must be a good swordsmith.

"I added a resin on it so that I could harden it and make it durable, but I never thought of the idea of the resin being able to take the acid, hmph, it is my sword making ability that made him be able to fight against him," he said it full of pride, but Sunny only listened to the first part.

She guessed the magic had to do something about it as well. Gramps read her face.

"Magic cant affect a liquid like water or acid in this matter. It corrosive enough to be useless in a defensive strategy, so you can only attack, but Eader cant use the magic on that sword fro some reason," he sighed, " but is the only one that can wield it, or mainly the only person I found able to wield it."

He muttered the last clause but Sunny only heard the first part.

It's good that Gramps put the resin on the sword but what about him? The acid must hurt and what's wrong with Eader's magic?

Eader was in great reach, so he lunged but he deflected it and Adam waved his sword around making the acid spew off. Jennifer moved back but realized there was a wall behind her, so she moved sideways to avoid the green goo.

This made her be in front of the entrance, and then she bumped into Evalynn, she turned but got startled and apologised," sorry about that," and got nervous. Then she saw Pyra and got brittle. Then the three of them stood there in confusion.

They first stared at Adam and then they saw Eader who was battered and had a bit of blood dripping from a red area of his skin. Then Pyra asked saw Samuel hiding, bruised. All of them were staring at him bruised. Pyra then asked the logical thing, "what is happening here?"

This made him jump as he did not notice them. He stammered an answer," um, um, um Eader beat the two guys up and now he is fighting Adam," Samuel said but not the full truth.

Pyra nodded, thinking Eader was the idiot in the situation.

"I am gonna go now, bye," she said, half-smiling from the present situation. She then rushed past, and a few noticed her, one even asked her a question," are you gonna do something about this situation?"

Pyra looked at the fighters, she knew about Adam but was surprised by what she was seeing.

Wait, did he tell me his name?

She hated being ignorant but she couldn't always act good.

Man, I even acted like a douche to him.

She wanted to avoid him as much as possible.

"No, let them carry on with the fight, and if any are injured, bring them to the-" before being able to finish the two started to fight again going in sword to sword," everyone turned to see the match in the present. She sighed, reluctantly staying.
