[Lucas Hiddleston POV]
“What the fuck are you doing?”
I said, confused, shocked, and enraged at the fact that he just took the punch without even doing anything.
There is no fucking way im believing that the only guy who could dodge the Sword Saints’ counters didn’t see that punch coming.
The moment I woke up, I left the training room and was just walking to a specific place that had something I ordered.
And this is what I come across?
The guy that’s the fastest among us?
The guy who’s the only one that could dodge the sword saints attack?
The guy that has the best reflexes I’ve seen?
The guy who is the reason I try to distract the Sword saint even though my body is breaking…just for him to land one hit…?
What the Fuck are you doing?
“Who the fu?!”
I heard the red-haired bastard that was stupid enough to punch a student of the sword saint and saw him gasp in shock from seeing me.
But that was not on my mind.
This redhead isn’t worthy of my attention.
“Ah…Lucas you see I-i was…”
“Shut the fuck up.”
I shut him up before he could spout any more nonsense.
“I wasn’t talking to you.”
I said in my rage.
My question from before was aimed at Alexander Wright.
I could care less about the redhead…what was his name? 𝘪.𝑐ℴ𝘮
Ah, not worthy of my time anyways.
“Why the fuck did you just take it?”
I questioned him, still not believing the fact that he just took the punch and didn’t fight back.
Even if he didn’t fight back, why not just dodge?
You and I both know the state of our bodies after training…
Why the fuck didn’t you dodge?!
Disregarding The rank first and the Silver head, the former having a body of fucking steel and the latter who received light attacks always from the sword saint.
His and mine bodies were always the more injured.
Do you not have the strength to move?
Or do you just lack the confidence to even move in front of this redhead’s presence?
I don’t understand…why don’t you just beat the shit out of him?
And why are your eyes so soulless?
“Ah, I see! He messed with you too! Let’s beat the shi-”
“Fuck off.”
I can’t deal with the nonsense that the redhead is spouting.
I activated [Intimidation(D)] and exuded a pressure that made the redhead shut up.
And like a scared rat, he shut up and I released my skill.
Shit…I don’t have the mana to activate it for long.
“Tch…You lucky ba-”
I heard him click his tongue as he as running away while not finishing his sentence.
I looked at Alexander with disgust in my eyes.
Now I know the situation, I was too hot-headed to realize it.
Yet I still don’t understand it, despite knowing it.
You have the power, why do you cower because of his family?
I will never understand such actions…and I consider them disgusting.
I whispered in a low but angry voice in his ear, in a voice low enough that only he and I could hear.
“You are a student of the Sword Saint, the strongest human alive…have some fucking pride.”
I paid him no heed, I don’t know when my body will collapse from the pain.
I need to drink a potion fast.
I walked ahead and went toward my destination as gas as possible.
But on my way there…I did not disregard what I just saw.
A student of the Sword saint, one of the four, a student of the man who is a living legend, someone who is probably the strongest awakened human…cowered before a redhead of the Flares?
Unforgivable.
Fucking Unforgivable.

Alex lay down on his bed and stared at the ceiling with dead eyes.
One might think he was dead with his eyes open…but he was actually thinking about something.
How the heck could he see the punch move so slowly?
He could see the air moving, the pinch coming closer and closer and he didn’t understand it.
Whenever it was the sword Saint, the moves would move at regular speed, which was already hard to dodge.
…is the training working?
Is it really?
He has those thoughts.
Before he couldn’t see any punch coming toward him.
But now, he had clearly seen it.
Had his eyes adapted to the speed of the sword saint?
And…then even though it was very faint…he definitely smiled…
It’s…working…my training…was actually strengthening me.
Even though I got my ass kicked…i was able to clearly see an attack coming toward me…
Yet I lament at the fact that I was too scared to dodge it.
…is it possible?
Can I rank up even though j have no Mana breathing technique?
Is it possible?
Suddenly, Olivia’s proposal appeared in his mind.
And for the first time in his damn life.
He stood up, put on some clothes that hid his figure.
And left his dorm room.
And he wasn’t going to the training room.
He was going somewhere else.
He didn’t know why…but he just felt it.
Like his gut was telling him.
This is your chance!

Lucas sat down on a bench and waited patiently until a man wearing a black backpack sat down next to him.
He took off his backpack and Lucas handed him a card containing money.
The man left soon after he got the card, and Lucas grabbed the backpack and silently made his way back to his dorm.
There was a smile on his face as he walked back to his dorm with the backpack.
There were only two things on his mind. .
The Goods Have arrived.
And he’s gonna have fun for the following days.
