Chapter 49

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

I look at Ozpin, who is taking me to the arena, where I can see many people watching us with interest. I give Nora and Ren a small smile before looking back at Ozpin, smiling at me.

"Of course. It's been a while since I had a fight and judging by the fight with Grimm horde two days ago, I know that I have been neglecting my training."

I sigh a little when I hear the murmur coming from the spectator, and I can listen to Nora shouting how I should bring her and her team with me. That bastard says that on purpose.

"Fine. How is it? Go all out?"

"Of course and yes, I want to see you all, Angelo."

I look at him for a second before nodding my head. He is serious about that. He wants me to go all out and use my magic in this fight. Very well, if that is what he wants, I guess he can say that my magic and his are our semblances.

"Very well. Does that mean long range included?"

"Hmmmm. No. I know I will be defeated if you decide to use all your arsenal. Melee only."

"Sure."

I take out my sword from my back and push a little bit of mana into it. A second later, I can see my sword glow a little as its true power has been activated. While it did not work really well against humans, this power included sharpening my sword and also increased the durability of my sword by a thousand percent.

After taking out my sword, I take a stance and look at Ozpin before saying.

"Let's do this."

|3rd POV|

"Ohhhh! It's been a while since I saw my brother fight! Are you excited, Ren?"

Ren nods his head and says.

"Yes. I want to see if I can fight him to a standstill now after studying in Beacon for a few months."

Ren sees his brother take a familiar fighting stance. The stance that he uses when he is serious. In his right hand is his silver sword, and on his left hand is a Witcher's Sign on each of his fingertips.

He doesn't know how the fight will go, but he knows that Angelo will not be defeated easily. Ren knows that Ozpin is one of the most powerful hunters in the world, but he knows that Angelo will show a good fight and even win this fight.

"Man, I hate those stances."

Ren looks at Jaune, who winces at the sight of the stance Angelo uses. Jaune knows it very well because when he is under Angelo's wing, he will get beaten by the same stance repeatedly until Jaune manages to land one hit on Angelo.

"And why is that, Jaune?"

The blonde knight looked at Ruby Rose before saying,

"That stance did not have a hole!"

"What? Yes, there are. Look at his left side. It was full of holes and easy to exploit."

"Yes, if you want to get beaten by him."

"What?"

"J-Just wait and see. You will know."

Ruby looked at her friend in confusion before looking back at the arena. She knows that Angelo is strong and has a cool submarine, but he cannot beat the headmaster. In her mind, Angelo's fighting stance has a major weakness and is easy to exploit.

As Glynda Goodwitch gets between Ozpin and Angelo, she looks at both fights before speaking.

"The fight will begin in Three! Two! One! Fight!"

After she said that, Glynda immediately jumped away from the arena, and it was the right decision as both fighters charged at each other. Their weapons collide with each other and create a shockwave from the impact.

"You move like lightning for an old man!"

"Heh! You are not so bad for a youngster."

Ozpin throws Angelo away and swings from the right to hit the hole in Angelo's stance. However, before it could hit its target, Angelo activates his Witcher's Sign.

A yellow shield appears, deflects the incoming attack, and gives Angelo a chance to attack. With a swing, his sword manages to take a small amount of Aura Ozpin had, but before he could hit for the second time, Ozpin creates a small shield made of energy, the same energy the Witcher's Sign has.

"Heh. You really mean it, huh?"

"What do you mean?"

"Going all out."

"But of course. I never go back on my word."

"I see. Then don't mind if I go all out as well."

People suddenly see a circuit pattern appear on Angelo's body. Angelo decides to reinforce his body before appearing in front of Ozpin in the blink of an eye. Ozpin did not have enough time to react, and he got thrown away by a punch.

A second later, the wall behind him cracked and created a spider web pattern by the impact. Ozpin shakes his head for a second before looking at Angelo. However, instead of the sight of a man standing not too far away from him, what he sees is a torrent of fire coming at him.

Ozpin pushes a bit of his aura into his feet and jumps away from the fire before creating a magic missile at Angelo.

With not too much effort, Angelo manages to dodge a dozen magic missiles before firing another torrent of fire. However, unlike before, Ozpin creates a magic circle and deflects the incoming torrent of fire to attack Angelo instead.

Angelo put his finger on the sword, and suddenly the sword shone in red light. A second later, he swung down his sword to cut down the torrent of fire coming his way.

Angelo gives Ozpin a small smile before charging forward with his sword in hand.

~Thirty minutes~

Glynda sighs a little at the destruction of the arena. She knows that she will be the one who fixes this mess. She looks at the students and sees them look at the fight in awe, and she must say that she agrees with them.

She knows that Ozpin is strong, but she never thought that he would be this strong. She never sees him fight seriously. Each attack he uses destroys a chunk of the arena, and not only that, but he can also take a lot of damage as she can see his aura still in the yellow even after this much destruction.

The same with Angelo. Not only is he very durable, but his attack is also so powerful that it can destroy a massive boulder thrown at him.

Both of them are monsters that not many people can beat.

She always thought that Angelo was a man who was more of an engineer than a fighter. She always thought that he fought using his gadget instead of using his body, but she was wrong. She doubts that she can beat him in a one-on-one fight even using all of her power.

Combine it with the fact that he did not use his weapon even once in this fight; Glynda knows she is outmatched.

*BOOM*

Glynda snaps from her thoughts when she hears a massive explosion is happening. She covers her eyes to block all the dust from the explosion, and after a few seconds, she notices that Angelo is on the ground panting while Ozpin is pointing his cane at his neck.

"Haaa… Haaaa… I guess, it is my win."

Ozpin smiles a little and offers his hand to Angelo. He takes the hand before saying.

"Yeah. That is a hell of a fight."

When Angelo gets up from the ground, the spectator starts to cheer. It was the best fight they had ever witnessed.
