Chapter 34: The Impossible
Chapter 34: The Impossible
People are funny, they like to watch a fight between the strong and an underdog, they will root for them but when they clearly lose, people will start to despise them for being overconfident.
The audience was rooting for Sol and excited to watch his fight, but when the saw him got send flying over and over again without the ability to fight back, they start to talk behind his back.
"tsk... I was excited but it turns out he is nothing against an Heir, they are wasting our time here!" an audience complained.
"maybe he was only lucky to be able to kill a predator with bloodline" another replied.
"no kidding, he may never one at all, its all just a rumor" another one joined in.
Nerva looked worried at Sol, she ignored what people said about her dad, but Moon looked toward the audience hostilely while growling, Miya needed to hold her so she couldn't rush over to beat them up.
Sol blocked another kick from Brutus while borrowing the impact to distance himself with the Heir.
Brutus rush over to him but Sol already pulled another bottle and throw it at him, Brutus wanted to swat it to the side but the collision trigger something, and the bottle explode in a flash of light.
Sol had prepared for this, what he threw was a homemade flashbang, being science teacher have its perk in making preparation, Sol had closed his eyes so he wasn't affected by that.
He runs over at The Heir, Sol cut at Brutus's knees joint from behind, making him fall on his knee.
Sol had targeted his joint because it was less protected by muscle, to his knowledge, joints will have more flexible and thin muscle so it can move and it turns out his bet is correct.
Brutus may have superhuman strength but his body is still human, he has their strength and weakness.
Sol continues to attack him but The Heir won't let him do that with out a fight, even if his eyes were out of commission, Brutus still has his fighting sense, he sent an elbow toward Sol behind him.
Sol duck down, already expecting the heir retaliate, he cut at his armpit, immobilizing one of his arms.
Brutus sent a punch with his other hand toward his back but Sol had rolled away to a save distance, as result he hit nothing and fall to his back.
Sol rush over and cut at the downed Heir's available arm's elbow joint, immobilizing it as well.
With all of his limbs immobilized, Brutus can only use a headbutt, but when he about to headbutt the offending person, his partially restored vision saw a knife blade pointing at his eye.
Sol had pointed his knife at Brutus's eye because he can't hit any other place and threaten him, his chest and neck is full of muscle so he decided to aim for the eye.
The colosseum was silent for a few seconds before they start cheering, the stunned judge finally comes out of his stupor and end the duel.
He didn't expect that Sol will win, he was ready to stop the fight when Sol's life in danger but out of his expectation, Sol turn around the fight within ten seconds.
Sol had moved back, before long Brutus also get himself off the ground like he never falls, his wound was all healed.
"Fuck he has healed already?" Sol was shocked, if he had taken longer to immobilize all The Heir limbs then they would have healed and Sol would surely fail.
In this fight he had used all his tricks, including the flashbang he had prepared as a secret weapon for the student's tournament. "now the student won't have as much surprise factor" he lamented.
If Sol had to fight the heir one more time then he will surely lose, he only wins with his surprise attack.
If his opponent wasn't Brutus but someone with purely offensive ability Then he won't even win, Nerodia's scale may be strong but not indisputable, had he fight Ashura, the Scale armor would be useless.
Brutus moves toward him and Sol was about to talk when he falls on his butt, his strength leaving him, "Ah the Adrenaline runs out" he lamented.
Brutus looked down at him and snort, "I won't lose next time" he declares and then he left the arena.
"Fuck! Who wants to fight you again? I'm not a masochist!" Sol complained to himself.
Moon and Miya who have Nerva on her hand get to the arena and help Sol get up and lead him to his seat, people start whispering about him and his achievements
"Wow, he really did it, I know he can do it, I believe him since the beginning," an audience said.
"you were saying he is overconfident and wasting your time!" a man beside him point out
"Hahahaha, did you see he have a cat and wolf girlfriend, even already have a child with them" he changes the topics, people are hard to accept a new thing, they think the relationship between a human and a creature is taboo.
Sol who is resting is getting even more tired, "fuck! Whether I win or lose they still spreading bad rumors about me" He wanted to cry.
After the opening show, they start the test, groups are fighting in the group stages first, then the first and second place of each group get to the main round.
The groups were divided into eight groups, at the end of the day only the group fight's first and second place are decided, the main tournament will be held the next day.
Temple of Minerva sent six groups but only two groups pass and can join the main tournament, both groups get second places in their group.
Sol feels bad for them because he had used their secret weapon so it wasn't as effective. "they did great so I need to be stronger as well so I can teach the better" he made up his mind.
