You have lucky

John continued his infuriated gaze as Aatrox who stared indifferently back at him. Jimmy was one of John's favorite disciples, he was always very funny and respectful to his seniors. Jimmy was slightly predigest against people who were not part of Bahamut Dueling School, but since John was a member himself, he didn't care.

The old man once again went between them and started the duel. As soon as the duel started, John dashed towards Aatrox adamant on avenging his fellow disciple. John wanted to show that you couldn't beat one of his fellow students and get away with it. Images of dread on Aatrox's face after being crippled ran through his head, he couldn't wait to get his revenge. He didn't care at all if it was against the law, John was born into a wealthy family, even if the boy's family called the police, he could just call his father and he would solve the problem for him.

John's sword swung towards Aatrox, its dull blade seeking vengeance for his enemies crimes. As the sword was nearing its mark, Aatrox deflected it effortlessly with the tip of his blade, making it aimlessly carry on its path leaving it's wielder defenseless. Aatrox finished his swords' swing, perfectly arcing the blade from the position it once was, and cutting towards john sword-wielding hand. John felt an intense pain in his right wrist. He didn't even see how Aatrox dodged his attack and gripped his wrist instinctively.

Aatrox watched him gripping his wrist in pain as he laughed inwardly. 'How predictable, just because I hurt your junior in a fair duel, you seek revenge by trying to cripple me. How ironic that it was you who left with your hand crippled instead'.

Before the old man could run to help his favorite disciple, he saw another blur pass in his vision as Aatrox swung his sword once more to hit John's other wrist.

"Since I introduced myself I only received mockery and negative intentions, now in a" friendly" duel your disciple tried to cripple me. What do you have to say about that, old man? " Aatrox remarked while standing next to the kneeling John as he faced the old man.

Looking at the injuries on John's two wrists, the old man could already deduce that John's career in martial arts was finished. These wounds would take a few months to heal, at which time his favorite student was no better than a cripple.

"The younger generation really needs to be taught a lesson." The old man claimed as his face was flushed with anger, the veins on his forehead convulsing like a beating heart. "Today you messed with someone you shouldn't have, you will no longer have a peaceful nights sleep within this city."

Aatrox was preparing to teach this old man a lesson when he felt two familiar presences approaching. Glancing in the direction, he saw two small heads looking around for something.

"You're lucky old man, you should hope I never see you again," Aatrox said as he threw his sword to the ground and walked toward his siblings who were looking for him.

In his past life, Aatrox had never cared about anyone. And in turn, no one had ever cared about him. Now that he has a family that loved him, he didn't mind sparing a few mortals in order to not stain his siblings' minds. Aatrox quickly stepped out of their sight and called his siblings from behind. " Bruna! Bryan! Over here!" They were startled, but when they looked back and saw that he was calling them, they were happy as they rushed to hug him.

"Mom sent us to get you, the food is ready, let's go!" Said Bryan as he pulled Aatrox's hand away.

"After lunch, Mom said we can ask you to play with us, will you play with us big brother?" Bruna asked, her eyes glittered in expectation.

Seeing those innocent faces that longed for his company, Aatrox threw the previous incident to the back of his mind and nodded his head.

...

After Aatrox threatened him and left, the old man stopped his disciples who wanted to follow him and began to smile contentedly thinking that the boy had run away in fear of him.

"Don't worry boys, you'll still have time to get revenge." The old man said to John and Jimmy with an evil smile on his face.

"Yes, master!" The two answered in unison with a similar smile.

Seeing the oppressive aura that was forming around them, the only person who didn't feel well in this environment was Xayane. Because of her family, she had to enter this dueling school to defend herself in the event of an unforeseen event. She tried to convince her mother to hire a personal trainer for her, but her mother insisted that she needed to meet more people and make more friends, so she enrolled her in one of the city's most prestigious martial art schools, Bahamut, so she could learn to socialize.

Seeing all the people around her with an evil smile as they thought of ways to get their revenge, Xayane couldn't take it anymore and sneak out.

Arriving at the park entrance, Xayane spotted her driver propped up in a black Audi car while waiting for her.

"Miss, is class over early?" He asked.

"No Eliot, they challenged a boy to a duel, but contrary to what they expected, the boy beat Jimmy and John. Not being able to take the defeat, they are now seeking vengeance and plotting against him. I couldn't take it anymore and I left, I don't want to see them again, " Xayane said as she sat in the seat of the car irritated.

"If I had known they would be like this I would have tried to persuade Madame to hire a private instructor for you, Miss." Eliot said angrily at knowing that people were using his martial arts to intimidate the weak.

Arriving home, Xayane told her mother about the incident and her mother immediately called the old man to say that her daughter would no longer attend his classes.

After hanging up the phone, the old man got very angry. John's and Xayane's families were his main sponsors, he knew that John was the son of a wealthy businessman while Xayane's family funded his dojo and she always arrived in an expensive car with a personal chauffeur who drove her to and from lessons. But in one day, he had lost both of his major sponsors.

Now that one of his students, who would help him if something bad happened, has been crippled and will most likely leave, the old man was infuriated. Moreover, Xayane left the same day of the duel, most likely because she considered the dojo to be weak since they lost humiliatingly to a random boy in a park. The old man's thirst for vengeance towards Aatrox increased yet again.

...

Meanwhile, Aatrox was playfully running through the park with the two kids who wanted to play with him.
