Equal Strength

"IMPOSSIBLE!? How did she destroy my Gravity Pull Skill so easily!?" Martin yells out in anger and as if he lost all reason, he dashes toward Mio with the clear intention to kill which greatly shocked Alice since she didn't expect Martin to have a sudden outburst as he was always the type of person to be always calm and rarely gets angry. But all of that changed when he met Mio for the first time, she could see some clear changes in his personality, and it seems that he has planted a seed of hatred towards Mio, but she doesn't have any idea as to why.

Alice didn't even have the chance to say anything as Martin has already arrived in front of Mio and even if she tries to defend her, she would also get hurt as well as the students who were around. She can't risk the safety of her students, so she can only pray for Mio's safety and looked in their direction to see what is about to come.

"Hehehe, really interesting…" Mio chuckled softly as she did nothing and stood where she currently is and stared into Maritn's black eyes without any fear on her face which only made him angrier. That's what he hates the most, seeing her nonchalant and emotionless face despite being weak, he hates it. He wants to see her despair even more now that he is sure that she is going to die using his own hands.

"Die you arrogant bitch!!!" Martin raised his fist and punched through the air aiming right straight for Mio's chest. He wanted nothing but for Mio to die right here and now, even though he has just met her he was already so annoyed with her especially when he saw her getting so close to Alice. He hates that fact even more.

BOOOOM!!

His attack was so powerful that the sound that it created even resonated throughout the whole grounds and hearing it made some of the Studens pale in fear. As for Alice, she has a dark and dreaded expression on her face as she didn't like what is happening currently, losing Mio who has the potential to be the greatest teacher is already hard enough, but a newly hired Teacher who has been killed by Martin is even bigger trouble for them as it would ruin their reputation even more.

"Finally! I Finally killed that fucking arrogant woman!" Martin screams out with joy as he raised both of his arms in the air, but before he could scream once more he was interrupted by a deep but hoarse voice of a woman.

"You won? Who decided that? Why don't you look at your own body, Mr. Martin?" Mio said as she slowly stood up but fell on her knees because of her current 'weakened state'. Immediately all of the students' eyes went toward Mio's voice, but what they saw made them step back in fear as her chest was caved in, and blood was all over the ground. All of them can even see that some of her ribs were broken because of the punch. But all of them realized one more thing and that was Mio's words, so they quickly looked at Martin to only saw the stick that Mio was holding stuck in his chest where blood was constantly dripping out.

The only reason that Martin didn't feel anything was that he was in a state of ecstasy resulting in him not feeling any pain because of his joy. But when he was finally brought back to reality, his scream that was full of joy before soon turned into cries of despair as he kneels to the ground and carefully tries to remove the stick that was embedded in his chest. He was so scared for his life that it might have reached his heart, but he seems to be lucky enough for it not to happen.

"What do you think would happen if that was a real Sword stuck in your chest?" Mio smiled but in a wicked way as she even licked her lips spreading the blood that came out, but instead of making her face scarier, it somehow looked even better because it looked like some kind of lipstick in the eyes of the female students.

But her words only added a level higher of fear to be planted in everyone's hearts, but there were only three people who were not afraid of Mio even after seeing and hearing such a scary scene. They were Alice, Liao Xi, and Sana, all three felt no fear but instead pride and happiness that she was alive which made Mio confused a bit. But it didn't matter for now as she have something much more important thing to do.

"How about we leave this fight to a tie for now Mr. Martin? Both of us are heavily injured and I think it's only safe to say that we are on par. Don't you think so, Principal Alice?" Mio said before turning her attention to Alice to ask something to her.

"Yes, this battle is over now. Both of you are only equal in strengths, so I hope both of you will leave everything that happened today. Especially you Martin, I hope you don't question my eyes again when it comes to picking my people." Alice said as she slowly turned around to take her to leave as everything was finally settled. She was not going to help either of them as a form of punishment for the two for scaring the students.
