novelBetrayal
| ← Ch.087 | Ch.089 → |
Ray currently stood in the centre of the arena looking at the 9 men on the floor rolling about. For some reason even though they were suffering, Ray's anger wasn't settling down. It was as if another part of his body had taken over.
Every time he would hit one of them, images of Amy, images of Gary being hurt by Pureblood, and images of Monk when he was hurt by Sebastian would flash through his head. These types of people didn't deserve to live.
Ray started walking over to the person closest to him. Everyone was watching in anticipation wondering what he was going to do.
"The boy's going to kill them. I'm telling you we need to get him out of there!" One of the elders demanded.
The old man remained silent and decided to just watch intently. Slyvia and the rest were also holding their breath, wondering what Ray would do next.
Ray bent down to the person closest him and said.
"You will never be able to use Ki, ever again."
Ray then placed his hand on top of the man's chest.
"Only two, " Ray said.
Slyvia and the old man couldn't believe their eyes. The two of them were truly worried about what Ray would do. They activated the Ki in their eyes and what they saw blew their mind. It looked like the Ki was escaping from one body and going into Ray's.
Once ray had completely absorbed the man's Ki, he gently hit the contestant until his bracelet displayed the number 0. The white light surrounded the man and teleported him away.
The elders and the whole crowd watching were relived. They were holding the breath in till the very last moment.
"Looks like you were right about the boy. He isn't harming the students any further." An elder said.
The old man laughed nervously. The other elders weren't fighters like the old man so they had no clue what just happened but the old man was afraid that others might have seen the same thing he did. Especially members of Pureblood.
Ray continued going to each contestant that was lying on the floor and performed the skill mana drain on them.
.....
After absorbing 8 contestants, Ray had currently gained an additional 11 mana points, bringing his total mana pool to 21. Ray started walking over to the last person on the floor. Most of the contestants had been eliminated at this point. Only a few had seen what Ray had done and decided to not go against him.
A girl named Sarah spotted Ray in the middle of the arena draining the last man on the floor. Seeing Ray kneeling next to the man, she thought that Ray was an easy target. She readied her bow and aimed directly at Ray's back. The arrow flew through the air and bounced of Ray as if it was hitting a solid wall. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝙣oν𝙚𝚕 - 🅽🅽novel
Rays bracelet now displayed.
Ray ignored the shot and continued to absorb the last contestants Ki. Then when it finally finished his points were now at 22. Ray quickly tapped the man with Ki 4 times sending him off to teleport away.
Ray stood up and turned around. He could see Sarah standing there with her bow. For some reason when looking into Ray's eyes, Sarah could feel a shiver run down her spine. She rapidly shot more arrows in Ray's direction. Ray slowly walked towards her avoiding each arrow strike by a narrow margin until he finally just a few feet away.
Sarah was shaking. She went to her quiver to get another arrow. When she looked down, she realised her quiver was empty. She no longer had any arrows. When she looked up to look at Ray again, he was already directly in front of her.
Ray grabbed Sarah by the head and started the mana drain process. No one knew what Ray was doing but Sarah could feel her energy seeping away from her. She was too frightened to move in case Ray would do something even worse.
An audience member stood up from the crowd and shouted.
"Get your hands off my daughter you monster!"
Ray looked over in the direction the voice was coming from. It was the same man who had said: "what kind of parents raised him?"
Images of Ray's father popped up in his head. How the kingdom had abandoned him when he had thought on the front lines for all those years. How when he was infected by the shadow plague the kingdom didn't send anyone to help his poor mother.
Ray pulled his fist back ready to punch Sarah in the stomach. Sarah closed her eyes as she waited for the outcome she couldn't avoid.
Suddenly, before Ray could move his fist forward, a chain wrapped around his fist and started to pull back against it. As he looked back, he saw Kyle holding on to the chain. Then the two twins Badger and Sloth came and pulled Sarah back away from Ray. Lastly, Martha was there pointing her arrow towards Ray.
"What is this about!" Ray shouted.
"Ray just leave it" Kyle responded."Look I understand the people before deserved it, but she has done nothing wrong. She is just a contestant."
"Ray please, this isn't like you." Martha cried.
The four of them had been watching Ray's actions for a while now. In the middle of the match, they had made a pact with the twins agreeing that the five of them would go onto the next round.
The twins liked Ray and looked up to him. Whenever the dragon knight training would happen, Ray would often encourage them when they were feeling down or couldn't succeed at something.
When all the contestants were eventually defeated, they turned around to see Ray holding Sarah. They knew something was wrong with him. The pressure coming from Ray was frightening and sickly. They all acted without even needing to speak to each other.
"What do you guys even know about me!" Ray shouted back.
