The Villain's Story

Elijah and the Japanese student Isshin’s arms could be seen glowing with their mana, struggling to win.

Elijah, although was quite well built, Isshin was someone who would make you wonder if they were a student or not.

A damn giant, his body proportions were out of this world.

With large, thick arms and legs, and a menacing face, one could mistake him for a member of the Yakuza.

But eventually, Isshin had to have lost, he was up against Elijah after all.

If this was pure strength then maybe he might have won.

But this was assisted by mana, and those of equal ranks battled each other to test their control.

And Elijah’s control was very very good.

“Hah…”

Elijah gasped for breath as he relaxed his arm, which was shaking.

“Nice Match.”

He said to his opponent, who didn’t share the same sentiment.

“Tch.”

He clicked his tongue and was going to ask for a rematch, when…

“One Million studs on the first rank of Shield, Alan Peccator.”

Isshin and Elijah turned their heads in the direction of the Voice And saw Sabrina literally have dollar signs for eyes as she smiled brightly whilst urging Alan to come forth.

“So, who do I have to Arm wrestle?

Elijah?”

Alan said, since Elijah won, he thought he would have to wrestle him.

“Nope, You wrestle with the one that matches your rank!”

An instructor said from the sidelines,

‘So Hero Academy first rank, or right what was his name?’

Alan remembered that he was going to meet him, but had left to deal with Kazikato.

And the First rank of Hero Academy, came forth.

And goddamn he looked exactly like that Hot CEO type.

Perfect Black hair, wearing a buttoned black shirt with black pants.

‘Nice taste.’

Alan thought in his mind as he looked at his porcelain skin, complimenting his taste in clothing.

Full black is the best, For Alan.

“Go, Kurosaki Kun.”

“Win for us!”

“Kyaah, LOOK HERE REN CHAN.”

Man, his fans are a lot.

Kurosaki Ren, The guy who took down a demon with him during the training camp, the first ranker of Shield, and the boy that girls fangirled over.

A guy handsome enough that He and Sabrina would make the perfect pair.

Both A rank charms.

“Nice to meet you.”

Kurosaki Ren held out his hand, and Alan shook it.

“Nice to meet you too.”

Alan responded, and then both sat on the stools and placed their hands on the table.

But then another person came forth.

“Hold on a minute, Alan Peccator is C rank, Whilst our Ren is only D rank, Shouldn’t there be some special restrictions on Alan peccator for this bout?”

An instructor of Hero Academy voiced out and the Instructors of Shield looked at him with a fierce gazes.

“Yeah, that’s not fair for Ren-Kun.”

“Ren Chan you can do it!”

“…”

Kurosaki Ren remained quiet and then lowered his gaze as his ‘fans’ cheered him on.

It looked like he was embarrassed.

‘Well, at least he isn’t arrogant.’

Alan thought in his mind as he liked that Ren wasn’t arrogant as most talented people.

“I won’t use mana at all, only brute strength and he can use potions.”

Alan voiced out, placing his restrictions.

[Hey hey what are you doing?]

Sabrina talked to him through the Spatial bond, and the rest of the students got even livelier.

“He’s gonna lose for sure now!”

“Hah, Im gonna be rich after this!”

The shield students and staff looked concerned, but there were only two people who weren’t concerned and stall from Shield.

Elijah and Lucas were the only ones who didn’t get restless.

[Don’t Worry, I’ll still win.]

He told Sabrina through the bond, whilst an instructor from Hero Academy grabbed Kurosaki Ren And Alan Peccators Hands firmly, ready to begin the challenge.

“3!”

“2!”

“1! Begin.”

He let go of their hands and the arm wrestling challenge had begun.

Kurosaki Rens’s arm had grown and began to glow a dark light.

He was a dark element user!

Sabrina’s gaze widened as she saw the dark mana cover his hand.

She began to bite her nails, a habit that had developed whenever she got nervous.

Yet, the result everyone had expected had not happened.

Alan’s hands stayed rooted, not moving an inch from their original position.

The dark mana moved to his unprotected hand, and its corrosive nature acted.

*Sizzle*

It tried to corrode Alan’s hand, yet nothing happened.

And Alan’s face remained calm throughout.

His diamond-blue eyes, the only thing he had that surpassed Ren in charm, stayed calm.

The dark mana raged, trying to corrode Alan’s hand more and more but to no avail.

Ren, for the first time, drank a potion to regain his mana and continued to wrestle.

Potion after potion, it still didn’t budge.

Even when Alan’s entire right arm was covered in dark mana, it didn’t budge.

‘Hmm?’

Alan, seeing his hoodie get corroded, finally began to be concerned.

‘If the entire thing gets corroded, my mark will be shown!’

And for the first time, Alan pushed Rens’s hand back down.

*Shaaa!* .

His darkness mana flared, trying his best to strengthen his arm.

Yet his arm still fell.

He drank another potion…but by the time the bottle was drunk, he had already lost.

“…Alan Peccator wins.”

The instructor from Hero Academy announced.

“No way.

He actually didn’t use mana and won?!”

“That can’t be real!”

The students from Hero Academy didn’t believe it.

“Oh yeah!”

“Go rank first!”

Whilst the students from Shield rejoiced.

Sabrina had the biggest smile on her face as she quietly began to count the money she would earn from this.

Many students from both Academies belonged to wealthy families, so they had bet a lot.

And she was ecstatic.

It was ingrained into to her from a young age to always know how to make money, and covet it, and her plan worked.

Although the bufoon may have made her nervous when he said he would use no mana, she now knew to trust him!

Alan got up, and then put his hands in hid pocket, and coolly walked away.

At this point, he completely forgot about the fact that he had come to train.

And Sabrina and Alan had one thought in their minds.

‘Easiest money I made in my life.’
