Chapter 7: Time For A Lesson!
Chapter 7: Time For A Lesson!
'Ah, it's this b*tch!' Claude looked at the girl and his mouth subconsciously curled into a mocking smile.
Back at the Longdale Village, May Stafford was a close friend of Claude. She looked up to him, and were good friends from childhood. Claude was also fond of May, and he would often teach her martial art moves that he had learned to her.
However, after they entered the Golden Avarice Academy they became distant from one another, and they were almost total strangers now.
After May had entered the academy, she quickly became good friends with Colton Grey by utilising her beauty. Some say she even offered her body to him. By using her newly formed connections, she achieved the fifth rank of the Earth realm about half a month ago. If she had used her influence a bit more, she could've stopped the bullying Claude had to face. Colton had an influential image amongst the outer disciples, and May could've definitely helped him get rid of the problem if she had tried. But she didn't.
Of course, the Claude of the present didn't care about the feelings of the Claude of the past. However, he did hate people who tried to one up him. And looking at the expressions of these two, it was clear that they looked down on him. He didn't like that. He didn't like that one bit.
'These f*ckers.. You really think you're that great, huh?' He had a calm expression on the outside, but he was sneering inside his mind.
He made sure that he'll definitely teach these two a lesson.. one that they'll never forget, when the time comes!
At this moment, May Stafford walked in front of Claude, and in a complex manner, with a little sigh, said, "Claude, I heard that you finally mastered a high ranking martial art, even though you are still stuck at the fourth rank. However, I wanted to give you some advice, do not be too stubborn. I know you're feeling super thrilled that you were able to beat the person who humiliated you, bu-"
"Oh yeah! I feel great! Killing him felt real great! In fact, I'm thinking of doing the exact same thing if you don't get the f*ck outta my way!"
Claude broke off her sentence and responded with a sinister grin, which caught May completely off guard. She was not expecting that response.
"What did you say?" May said with a bit of anger on her face, but before she could do anything, her body suddenly turned stiff as Claude's killing intent enveloped her, causing her expression to turn grave. Immediately, her facial expression changed and her pupils shrunk to a needle-like size.
"May! How dare you!" Colton Grey yelled out, as he leapt towards Claude.
Not good!
Claude felt a great danger coming towards him. He stood firmly on the spot, raised his head and laughed, "Colton Grey, you better think this through!"
After hearing Claude, Colton Grey immediately stopped his actions. His outstretched hand paused in midair and his face showed a sign of hesitation and resentment. Although he wanted to beat up Claude, the young man was a helper of the Second Elder, which meant that he had the protection of the elder. Trying to hurt him meant offending the elder himself!
He only wished to beat him up, but Colton definitely did not want to risk offending the Second Elder for such a small reason.
He reluctantly withdrew back and looked at Claude with his bloodshot eyes. Claude responded with an innocent smile, and withdrew his killing intent, causing May to collapse down on the ground.
Blech
She immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, her stomach turning as she resisted the urge to vomit.
"Next time, don't get in my way, you cocky little brats!" Claude said calmly.
"Claude Rayforth!" May shrilly exclaimed, as her icy gaze became fixated on Claude.
The anger that could be seen burning on her visage, slowly distorted into something unsightly. Today was the day when she put her former childhood friend in his place, but instead, it had become a day filled with disgrace. This was a slap to her face a grave humiliation!
"Don't think that you're someone special just because you were selected by an elder. At the end of the day, you're just a helper!" The intensity of the coldness in her tone, seeped deep into one's bones, as determination shone in her eyes.
Claude calmly gazed at May, before closing his eyes and stated, "Perhaps I am a nobody who got lucky. Who knows," he stopped for a second, and an evil smile appeared on his face. "But even if I'm just a helper, I'm still miles better than you. After all, you're just a c*cksucking slut!"
He laughed loudly for everyone to hear his words, and under the cold gazes of Colton and May, slowly walked towards his room.
