"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!" Robin jumped out of the piles of fire when he saw the sight. Several bruises all over the two faces, Caesar's right eye was swelled and Theo's left arm was hanging in a weird shape and a large amount of blood was dripping from his fingers.
" what do you think?" Caesar threw the broken halberd aside and went to get water and bandages to treat himself, while Robin hurried to expose Theo's dangling arm to see what was wrong with it...
his shoulder was dislocated and there were cuts all over his arm, from the shoulder all the way to his fingers. Whoever did it was enjoying his time to the fullest...
"They used my own halberd to do it." Caesar, who was sitting on a chair by the side, stated then started to put wet cotton on his eyes.
Robin knew very well who he meant. it was the group of youths who ripped off house 208 from them, and since that day they have been harassing them whenever an opportunity arises. the more they find them silent, the more they grow more violent.
Especially after Theo joined them, it became a common sight to see him with tattered clothes and a bruise or two on his face every time he goes out to buy supplies or fuels. for bullying a slave is easier than bullying two students who carry an official badge, the three of them have become the entertainment of this group.
But because of their current weakness, Robin pretended that he didn't see anything. He was just increasing Theo's quota of energy stones to use their energy to heal himself, while Caesar grinds his teeth and intensifies his training, even more, to become stronger quickly.
Caesar, who was sitting on one of the chairs dressing his wounds, felt for the first time in his life an intense killing intent coming from Robin, it was so shocking that it made the hair of his body stands.
because he knew Robin when he was old, calm, and immersed in his studies, he got accustomed to that the option of fighting never across his mind... Just now he remembered that this man lived more than a century among countless beasts.
"Those sons of bitches! they went too far!! What will happen next time? One of you walks in with one of his limbs missing, or even dead?!" Robin shouted, then kicked the door with his foot and headed straight to the next house with *208* written on it.
but when he got near the door he didn't stop for a moment, with a wave of his hand, he burned the door in an instant, turning it into smoke, then entered directly while yelling, "GET OUT HERE YOU DAMN PIGS!"
"You bastard, you want to die!" The head of the group, Remus, who was sitting cuddling a girl on his lap, was surprised by the scene but quickly held on, threw the girl aside then rushed at Robin to smack him, but he heard Robin suddenly Yell, "Touch me and I'll I report you to lady Mila Bradley!"
Remus's fist stopped just before it touched Robin's nose, "You're bluffing! How does a scum like you know the number one genius in the kingdom?"
But his heart was beating fast, if it was lady Mila Bradley who had nominated Robin and his brother, their presence as students here even though they were just weak commoners.. became reasonable!
" he is lying !"
"If he knew lady Mila or even anyone of value, he would ask for his help by now."
"Right, lady Mila is destined to become a sage. How could she know those peasants?"
at this point, Robin reached his hand and grasped Remus by the collar "Maybe I'm lying, Do you want to try me? Come on then touch me, Caesar or Theo one more time and I'll report you immediately. I want to see what Mila will do with you after she promised me a safe environment in the institution!
I kept quiet because I didn't want to ask for another favor...but you're testing my patience day after day... you wretched pigs like to play? alright then, I'll play with you...what about a bet?" Robin stated, starting to regain his calm a little.
"What kind of bet?" Remus put Robin's hand away and asked. Although he was not sure of Robin's threat, the idea of angering the famous Mila Bradley forced him to think deeply about his choices, also the sight of the door disappearing in an instant, turning to ashes is still stuck in his mind.. 'It seems like I kicked an iron wall this time'
"A year from now, I will send my brother Caesar to formally challenge you all in the institution's arena. Whatever happens to him in the arena, I will be satisfied and I will not report you, but of course, whoever of you participates in the fights and lose will have to give us some compensation...
I can sign a contract with every word I say, but until then... get out of our way!" Robin's last words sent a shiver to the backs of Remus and his companions.. they didn't know if it was because of Mila's threat or the presence of the tyrannical kid.. but they decided that it was definitely because of the threat, refusing to object that a young man of the third level of energy foundation had done this to them
" I…agree." the moment these two words came out of his mouth, Robin nodded then came out of the house, dragging Caesar and Theo behind, leaving the group silent for a long time.
Until someone said angrily, "That Caesar is still at the fourth level, does he really think that he will reach a level where he can defeat us all in one year? Does he think he is a god..or that we are useless?"
"Hehe, if he wants to kill his brother, who are we to object?" One of the girls laughed
This is indeed a suicide mission in their eyes. The people sitting here are all nobles with powerful martial arts from their families, the weakest of them is at the sixth level and the strongest is Remus who has been at the tenth level for over a year and is studying the laws to form his pillars!
But Remus did not share the laughter, but rather came back and sat in his previous place silently .. trying to think of a way to avoid the anger of Mila Bradley after he kills that boy in the arena.
--------------------
Robin entered the house and sat in the fire with his eyes closed in meditation, anyone who sees him now would not notice anything, but Caesar, who had been with him for so long, knew that now he's a volcano about to explode.." weren't you a little impulsive? what can I do in one year? I will at most reach the seventh level."
Robin opened his eyes and looked seriously at Caesar "Trust me.... I'll make you strong enough to shove your broken halberd up his ass!"
