Chapter 259 l will take everything away from you "Hey, where are you going?" A boy named Alex questioned another boy. "Huh? Were sleeping for the last two days?" Mark answered. "Tsk Tsk, so you are going to the Battle Hall as well huh…" Alex understood. Mark then shook his head and a posture appeared in his hand, "Of course I am, Lady Candice is going to fight someone who dared to break the rules of the Academy." "Aha, so you saw that posture as well." "It was spread everywhere in the Academy, how can I not see it?" Mark answered. "Indeed." Alex nodded his head. "But I am still surprised, I can't believe that boy dared to break the rules and then challenged Lady Candice to a Sword Battle. People like him should be kicked out of the school." "I agree. Well whatever, I heard that he is going to apologize after Lady Candice wins this battle. So it doesn't really matter. He will be punished no matter what." "Do you think an apology would cut it?" "Heh, you think we people will end it there? Let the match end, after Lady Candice is done with him, we will give him our own piece of mind." Alex smiled. "Hehe~ True True." Mark nodded with a similar smile on his face. "But why are you going there an Hour earlier?" Alex questioned with a frown. "Huh? I can ask you the same question," "…" The two of them glanced at each other and in the end, Mark sighed. "Whatever, let's not talk about it right now. Shall we go together then? If we go early, we will be able to get the best seats with the best view," "Alright." The two of them then rushed towards the Battle Hall, however, as soon as the Battle Hall appeared in front of their eyes, their body froze in shock. There was a huge line in front of the Battle Hall. The two of them rushed forward and questioned, "Oi, why is there such a big line in front of the Battle Hall?" Mark questioned a boy. A boy turned around and sighed, "You know about the Sword Duel, right?" "Of course we do." "Apparently, a few people have been here in this Battle Hall from yesterday night, and some joined early in the morning. The Battle Hall is already full…" "What!?" The boy sighed… Battle Hall had the capacity to fit 5000 Students, which was half of the total number of students in the Academy and no matter how grand the occasion was, the Battle Hall was never filled up to the brim. Some students even called it the Second Auditorium. However, today… "Yes, there are only a few seats left, just get in the line, if we are lucky, we will get those seats if not… Then forget about it…" Yes, this time, the number of seats fell short. That was how strong Candice, the Queen of the Royal Academy's image and her marketing skills is. "And we thought coming here an hour earlier was overkill…" Mark couldn't believe it. … An hour later, when everyone settled down inside the Battle Hall, while many students were forced to stay out, Nux and Candice entered the stage. "Lady Candice!" "Lady Candice!" Many cheers were heard. It was expected. She was the Queen of the Academy after all. "Nux! You can do it!" "You can do it!" "We are with you!" However, not everyone in the room was supporting the Queen. Some supported Nux. Most of them were the students of his own class, while there were also a few other students who heard what had happened two days ago and disagreed with Candice. Of course, the students who were supporting Nux were fairly low in number compared to Candice's fanatics. "There aren't many people who want to see you win," Candice smirked. Nux, however, did not give in to her provocations and answered, "It's not like they are going to come here and fight." "Heh." Candice chuckled. "I will clarify the rules again, This would be a Best of Three Battle where the challengers will use wooden swords to fight. Are you two ready?" The two of them then heard an emotionless voice. Nux glanced at the woman standing in front of him and smiled. [Name: Arvina Skyfall] [Age: 102] [Mana Cultivation: Expert.] [Body Cultivation: Mortal. ] [Race: Human ] [Occupation: Vice Headmaster of the Royal Academy.] [Talent: High] [LVL: 54] [HP: 650/650] [MP: 1100/1100] [STR: 63] [AGL: 69] [VIT: 65] [STM: 62] [INT: 110] [DEF: 55] … 'Heh. I finally get to see you, Arvina Skyfall.' Nux chuckled. Brown-red, fiery eyes, sword-like eyebrows, light-blonde hair, luscious red lips and a lean physique, the woman was really enchanting; however, together with being beautiful, she also released a ferocious, dangerous aura. Aura of a Warrior. A well-trained warrior. If Thyra gave off a dangerous, silent type aura, her aura was more of a dominant type of aura. (Picture in Paragraph comments) "I am," Nux answered her question. "Heh. I am ready as well, teacher." Candice smiled. "Alright." Arvina stepped back. Seeing this, Candice's smile widened in joy and a wooden smile appeared in her hands. "What did you say again? 'It's not like they are going to fight in your stead' right? Heh. You wish they would. At the very least, you wouldn't have to go through the humiliation you will be going through today." Candice laughed disdainfully. Nux narrowed his eyes, "What did you say…?" Seeing that look, Candice smiled even more and started walking toward him, "I said I will make sure you crawl on your knees and rub your nose on the ground." Then, Candice brought her face close to Nux a crazed look appeared on her face. "I will take everything from you, your self-respect, then your status, your confidence. I will make sure to bury you so deep into the ground that you will never rise again. I will destroy you, Nux Leander." Nux stepped back a little and gritted his teeth in anger. Seeing that, Candice's smile widened even more and she continued, "Nux Lender, I will make you reg-" However, before she could complete her sentence, Nux placed his wooden sword on her neck. "Huh?" Candice blinked in surprise. However, before she could react, Arvina's voice was heard. "Round One ends, Nux Leander Wins. Score, 1-0" ... A/N: If I find a better picture for Arvina, then I might change her looks. Though I like this picture as well.
