Above the arena.


    The moment Ulvicor saw Taylor being punched, he knew the guy was done for.


    "How cruel!" He heard Bethany speak.


    ''Yes it is.'' In his mind, that was the truth too. But he also knew the consequences of showing mercy… In a beautiful world such as theirs, mercy was only permissible by the strongest.


    As time went on, Ulvicor only became more confident at the outcome. This little game was over… But he couldn''t understand why Henry would want such a thing.


    ''Did he just want some fame?''


    That''s the thought Taylor had on him until he heard a crude voice crawl up from under the arena.


    "TAXXXXXX!"


    Ulvicor looked down, he''s mouth hung open at what he saw.


    Taylor shouldn''t have been standing… not with that punch. But there he stood upon the ground… walking like a grandpa about to lose his cane. Completely different from the Taylor that was shown before.


    ''What the fuck happened to him?''


    …


    My mouth curls up at the disfigured look of Taylor.


    He was slowly walking out of the broken wall like a zombie. He''s strings cut off in such a way that he''s movements seem disarray. He should have had most of his bones broken because of me but they weren''t.


    I saw with my eyes how fast the bones and other damages were healing. It was phenomenal, a visible speed that shouldn''t belong to human.


    The speed of healing was almost as fast me but a bit weaker.


    I saw his bones that were broken, grow back in an extremely painful manner. But Taylor''s face had such a hollow yet angry look that you couldn''t find pain in it.


    ''Haha… the experiment''s working its charm!''


    Trying to check something out, I ask, "Hey Taylor… are you alright there, buddy?"


    He looked up in his broken manner, he''s gaze red in fury, "BudDy! WhO thE hEll Is yOur buDdy! I''m YOur fuCking EXECUTIONER!!"


    With no warning, the guy lunged towards me and tried to attack… with his bare hands.


    Which even with his sudden enhanced strength, did nothing but scratch a few parts that I couldn''t reach before, "Thanks for that, bud. I''ve been having an itch in that place for days."


    "Hnngh! WhaT tHe fUck Did yA saY? AN ITCH! I''LL FUCKING KILL YAAA!!" He said like a broke tube, trying to pull out the water, but clogged most of the way.


    Taylor attacked me with untold fury.


    A punch here, a kick there. A scratch here and over the back. He even tried to pull my hair in anger as if wanting to get some kind of painful reaction, but I cleverly dodge it.


    ''It seems the drug not only clouds the mind and makes irrational behavior. But it also installs a crude behavior even among the noblest of people.''


    ''It''s similar to someone who can''t handle alcohol but drank bottles of them and was now like a broken kite, flowing wherever the wind flowed and its cracked direction pointed.''


    ''Hm?'' I look up at one of the VIP rooms to see Ulvicor getting out. It seems he too understood that this match was rigged and was going to call it off. But I shake my head, stopping him.


    I saw the difficult expression he had. Telling me he could only go so far and have no choice but to stop, if things went too out of hand.


    ''Yeah… The guy can only go so far, especially with so many people watching us.''


    With that mindset, I look at the crowd, mindlessly dodging another of Taylor''s strike that was getting faster by time.


    My eyes roam the seats, trying to see if there was anyone from Class A or someone that would be significant to me or the story. But there was none.


    There was no one from Class A nor anyone significant. The only ones I found important was Wilson who was cheering me among the booing crowd, Arthur and Xavier who were looking gobsmacked at how easily I was defending all of the attacks of a crazed guy and finally…


    ''Elivia?''


    ''What the fuck''s she doing here and why does she have that worried look?''


    ''Is that for me or Taylor?''


    ''Hm? Her look changed. Now she''s pointing behind me, telling me to-'' My instincts flare suddenly as I grab the leg under me in quick succession.


    ''Taylor, you motherfucker! You were about to kick my balls!''


    "RAAGH!" Taylor screamed in a beastial manner, trying to pull his legs from me, but my grip was strong.


    ''Okay, I get that your fighting instincts have taken a flare. Now let''s see how well your defense goes!''


    I pull on his leg, taking Taylor by force and pulling him out from under my leg. Taylor tried to stop, but he''s strength was nowhere near mine and he could only protest before being thrown at the wall.


    His fall was quick and painful, breaking the wall and making him stuck on it.


    ''How you like that fucke- Oh, he''s getting up.''


    Taylor quickly got out of the wall and lunged at me again as the conclusion was the same thing, getting hit and stuck on the wall again.


    And just like before, he got out of it but stopped and rejoined his left humerus bone back.


    "Crack!"


    "Ohh, that sounds like a nasty crack. You sure you can keep doing this pal? Because we can take a breather."


    "Arrgh Raar Raa!"


    "…"


    "What?"


    "Arrgh Raar Raa!" Again he exposed the same words or whatever they were.


    ''Did the drug went too fast in his brain causing his vocabulary to get detached?''


    …


    Elivia was close to the arena. Because of her status as a Class A student and also a member of the Student Council, she got an exclusive seat, where only the VIP''s could sit and see with satisfied vision.


    But what she saw didn''t satisfy her one bit.


    At first, she had some doubts if Henry could win or not, seeing how he was only dodging the air arrows. But that thought was immediately crushed at how easily he destroyed the arrow and Taylor alongside it.


    It was at that moment, Elivia felt a tingle in her chest. Seeing someone so strong, dominate a person made her feel hot inside. But that was only for a moment as she saw how Taylor got out in a terrified manner.


    It was nothing like the noble boy who came to fight with honor, but a beast trying to rummage through its cage and bite at anyone that it could see.


    She worried and tried to tell Henry about him but the guy only continued fighting.


    Even with getting punched twice like before, Taylor didn''t stop and attacked on. But it was on his third stand that Elivia found something miraculous yet terrifying for her.


    "Why is he taking his bow?"


    … Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.


    Just as Elivia saw, Henry saw the same thing.


    After the third attack, Taylor didn''t come attacking at him like a beast but stayed there for a moment as if deliberating. Then suddenly it ran past him and quickly took the Sky Angel''s Bow before nocking it back and firing.


    Henry didn''t move from his spot as the arrow''s direction was bad and hit the place beside his head, missing him completely. The next two arrows missed him as well but instead he found something else.


    ''His stamina''s not dropping.''
