Forced END.

"Is he really gonna win?!"

"I mean that loser? He is gonna win!"

"Against Robert? the third strongest student!"

Spectators started talking to one another after seeing the current situation.

Only a few more centimeters and the knife will enter Robert's eyes.

"It is impossible! This weak student hasn't even won a single battle yet, then how come he is gonna win against someone as strong as Robert?!"

"S- stop me." Ryan closed his eyes, "Please! I don't wanna kill him!" Ryan screamed. No teacher took any steps, they were frozen in their seats.

Ryan opened his eye, Robert was right in front of him, Ryan was in mid-air.

"Please move out of the way!" Ryan ordered Robert to move.

But the way too panicked Robert was not able to move. He turned his head and saw the red line.

Ryan didn't have any control over his body, no seriously. Ryan breathed. he got scared himself, he tried his best to keep his hand from attacking Robert but it was not useful.

"Stop already! See! My leg is out of the red line! So please stop now! You have won!" Robert deliberately put his leg out of the Arena.

His cheek took a little scratch from Ryan's attack. Due to his attack's recoil, Ryan himself went off the red line.

A horn blew taking everyone's attention.

Commentator || Robert has stepped out of the Arena, the winner of this Trait Game is Ryan Walker! ||

He announced. Ryan sighed, he bent down, the knife hung from his hand, held lightly, softly.

Robert on the other hand was trembling from fear of a near-death situation.

Ryan seemed relieved now that the battle was called off, he doesn't have to fight anymore. He smiled. The knife he was holding softly in his hand started to slip off.

He was letting it go….. He closed his eyes, let down his guard.

< Quest appeared….. >

Suddenly, Ryan was reminded of the quest! The first quest he was told to complete, to defeat Robert.

The slipping knife stopped going anymore further. He grabbed them between thumb and index finger.

He inhaled, exhaled. 'But I have already won this game right?' The knife settled tightly in his grip. He turned.

His eyes wide, anger, unsatisfaction, fear… all in his eyes. Robert took a glance at Ryan staring at him with those eyes. Robert felt the obvious creepy sensation flowing through his whole body.

'What is this feeling? I have won against the third strongest student of our academy, I won't be expelled out of this academy.

'Still, I am not satisfied? Why am I angry? I feel anger and rage boiling inside me. I have even completed the quest provided by the Ring. I have defeated Robert successfully.

'But… But…' Ryan clenched his teeth. He started moving. Robert looked at Ryan.

'But then why do I feel like…. Like… there is still something I need to do…?'

"Ah. This Ryan guy is sure so boring. I thought he would go and kill that so-called third strongest." Jackie yawned. He stretched his hands up above his head.

"Hmmm." Sarah hummed.

"Alright then. We shall get going ahead with our plan too, shall we?" Jackie bent forward to get up off his chair.

"My lord, wait a minute." Gen bent forward.

"What is it-"

"Look at him. He is moving." Gen pointed at Ryan. Jackie moved to take a look at Ryan. A weird grin appeared on his face after seeing him.

Ryan started running. Robert panicked. He got on his legs. He saw Ryan coming at him with the stone knife in his right hand and eyes covered with rage.

"Y- you won! Spare me!"

'I need to do this. I need to do this or.. Or it's not good. I need to do this. I have to complete this once and for all. But… complete what?

Wait. Is my body even in my control?! Am I moving on my own? Do I want to… do I want to kill Robert? Is this me or the Ring? Is this me?! Tell me!'

Ryan swung the knife at Robert, he dodged.

"Huh? They still fighting?!"

"But ey, that guy's swings are rather lousy than before, don't you think?"

"Yeh! It looks like he is exhausted and out of energy but still wants to go!"

"Do they hold grudge against each other?" Most of the students stood in their spots.

They were excited enough to stand to get a clear view.

Ryan used his left hand to punch Robert, he raised his arm to defend against Ryan's hit.

Ryan jumped in the air. He kicked Robert's humorous turn in mid-air.

Attacked from the right side, Robert was quick enough to dodge. Ryan didn't come down. He landed his feet on his shoulder to take a turn in left.

He threw the stone on his rib. Robert moved and dodged the stone knife.

'Still?!' Robert was confused and scared that Ryan still wanted to fight after all of that.

Both were inside the Arena now. Ryan kicked Robert on his back, which made Robert fall forward, Ryan came at Robert from the air down at him, Ryan brought his elbow before him.

Robert got on his knees, before Ryan would hit him with his elbows, Robert punched Ryan in the face.

He landed on the ground, at last, more ever he was pushed backward.

Ryan grabbed the fallen stone knife. Charged at Robert. He raised his hand, made an action that indicated he was going to jump.

Robert was prepared- or so he thought.

Ryan bent down, got on his toenails, swung his leg, went under Robert, and stabbed his leg from behind.

Robert screamed, Ryan took the knife out of his leg.

"Huh…. Ryan, that kid is not half bad." Jackie brought his hands below his chin.

'He- He is super interested!' Sarah thought looking at Jackie.

Commentator || Stop! Invigilators! Stop the fight right now!! ||

A big wall started to sprout out of Arena ground. A Few plastic bottles went up in the air. The suddenly started melting, flew towards Ryan, and wrapped his hands plus legs.

"Go. To. Sleep." Gen smirked.

Ryan leaned against the big erupted wall between Ryan and Robert.

Both the invigilators fell down unconsciously. Plastic covering Ryan disappeared, the wall started to shrink.

"Now is our time I guess." Jackie stood up high, opened his arms wide, "Let's start!" The smirk grew wider.

"I.. smell danger!" Atkinson said.

"Sir?" Zahn gave a confused look.

"Fire," Jackie muttered.

"Ahh!" The audience broke out screaming!

"Run!"

"Save your lives!" They started running.

"The whole battleground is on fire!! Save yourselves!"

Four guards came inside through the east gate with Sarah leading them.

"Kill him!!" He shouted.

Ryan moved his head behind him at Jackie standing high and mighty with his arms spread wide open.

"Kill Ryan Walker!" Their eyes met.
