Chapter CXXVI - Early Vengeance (part 2)

Arriving at the gymnasium, we can see multiple people here already. Looks like they had expected that we would challenge them, and they prepared the whole arena beforehand.

"I like your preparations, Bejmin. I give you that much."

Jericho complimented her arch nemesis, and the Bejmin guy simply chuckled.

"Oh, please. We had some help. You see, everyone from the other classes also wants to see you get… defiled."

I looked to the top at the spectators seat, and there seemed to be plenty of students here, and I recognized their faces. They are first years from class A to D.

"I see. Then this should be interesting."

I said as I stepped forward.

"Wait, can't I come with you guys?"

Manda asked Jericho, but instead, Jericho placed her hands on Manda's shoulder.

"Better not... This entertainment is only for me and Rize, so please stay out of it?"

Jericho said with a scary grin, and it scared Manda even more. She was initially worried for Jericho and me, but now she is worried for our opponents.

I took a spot on the right side, so the enemies took a spot on the left. There are eleven students in total, and they are all grinning.

Jericho quickly walked and stopped next to me.

"So… how are we going to do this?"

"Let's see… A human body has 206 bones in total. So let's ehh… Let's break all of them."

"Good plan."

Jericho then took a step away from me and faced our opponents. Our pressures are leaking just a little bit and taunting our opponents.

"Then I guess we can all go wild!?"

""Yeah!!""

Bejmin, as the leader, starts it off with him releasing his heavy pressure. The pressure was forwarded towards us, so it doesn't really affect his friends.

But, neither Jericho nor I is feeling anything.

"That's cute."

"Yeah. It's like a breeze coming at me. Is this guy really from class A?"

"I think he cheated his way up. Then again, all of them probably did."

Jericho and I commented about the pressure he released, and Bejmin quickly turned extremely pissed. His friends, too, looked quite angry.

So, why don't we just get this started?

A member from class B then stood at the side of the arena and held a whistle.

"Remember. We have healing magicians, so go all out."

Okay. Sure. Go all out. Got it. 

They have healing mages, they said... Got it.

"Ready!?"

Everyone quickly took a stance, but me and Jericho just stood still, calmly.

"Go!!!"

And so it began…

"Horyaa!!!"

"Don't die!!"

"Take this!!!!"

VWOOOMMM!!!!!

Multiple powerful magic attacks were shot at us at high speed. Fireballs, wind slashes, water bullets, you name it.

But, it was all pointless.

BLAAAARRRRR!!!!

All those magic attacks collided and exploded at their targets perfectly, completely turning the entire area covered in dust and smoke.

"Heh. That one hits pretty well."

"Be careful. They are not as weak as you think."

Even though Bejmin told them that, he still doesn't know the scope of how far different Jericho and I are.

As soon as the dust cleared, it only showed a large shadow dome, protecting us from the attacks.

"W-What?"

I took down the shadow dome, showing the view of the outside.

"They did quite the damage on the floor…"

"Rize. I have been meaning to ask… but can you leave Bejmin to me?"

"Sure thing. I'll take down everyone else. Have fun!"

FLICK!!

I flicked my finger, multiple small shadow tails grabbed everyone on their feet.

WOOOSHH!!!

"Wha-Aaaaa!!!"

"What the hell!!!"

The shadow tail then lifted them up five meters in the air, and now they are all waving around mid-air. 

Everyone, except for Bejmin.

"Ah! I couldn't escape!"

"What is this?!"

The ones lifted are trying to attack the shadow tails, but it's just too sturdy for them to destroy or break. Bejmin stared at his friends floating in the air, but then his senses screamed for him to look at the danger in front of him.

TAP!

TAP!!

Jericho, with her full pressure released, is now walking slowly at Bejmin with all her anger out.

KRTKK!!

She purposely snapped her knuckles as she walked to scare Bejmin further.

"W-Wha… Don't take me lightly!!"

BAARR!!!!

Bejmin then quickly casted lightning magic and attacked Jericho with a powerful lightning strike. But, Jericho had enchanted her body in light magic. She leaped away as fast as light, disappeared from the eye.

That move… I saw it before. 

Cane did it when I was sparring with him back at the kingdom.

Who would have thought Jericho had that same ability… from only just a month of training.

ZING!!!

She immediately appeared inches in front of Bejmin, who is still too taken aback to react. With calm, Jericho delivered her mighty wind punch.

BARRR!!!

The upper cut thrown Bejmin all the way to the ceiling and crashed, then he fell to the ground.

Bejmin, still trying to grasp what just happened, slowly goes back up, but Jericho who is standing right in front of him… is merciless.

BAKK!!!

BAK!!

SHREEKKK!!!

Jericho grabbed him by the collar and smacked his face multiple times without using magic at all. She punched again and again, and even ripped away his clothes as she punched his stomach using a wind augmented punch.

But Bejmin is still in the arena, and he is still awake.

"Bejmin!!"

"Hey! Stop!"

The students floating on the shadow tail shouts at Jericho to stop. I moved the shadow tail a little bit closer to me so they all could face me.

I placed my finger on my grinning lips. I looked at them with a demeaning grin, and spoke with my deepest voice.

"Silence."

VWOOOOMMM!!!!!

I released a hint of heavy bloodlust and pressure at them, and they all quickly turned on their frightened expression. One of the females peed on her pants while being lifted like that, and that made her face quite wet.

Yikes… that will traumatize her for life.

Meanwhile, Jericho is having her own fun with Bejmin. She stripped him of his clothes and then made him float in the air so that everyone could see.

I took out my pocket watch to see the time, and it looks like there's five more minutes until one o'clock. I guess we can play around until then.

"Five minutes, Jericho!"

I shouted at Jericho, and she nodded at me.

Manda who is watching from the sides can only feel pity on the opponents, while everyone who is watching can't believe the horrors they are watching.

Two class E students… mercilessly defeated eleven class A students!

After five minutes are up, the students from class A quickly head to the arena to help their friends, while me, Jericho, and Manda move away and leave the gymnasium.

Ever since that day, no one dares to confront class E students anymore. 

I think we had our vengeance a little too early than everyone else from class E.

But… we can't help it. That was fun.
