The Mech Lord

[Bullseye!]

As soon as Leo heard Arthur's voice, he realized what he had done in anger and his face immediately changed color.

He looked around to see people staring at him with a shocked face while that guy laid down in the distance with foot print on his face. His nose had sank into his face at an unnatural angle as blood oozed out of it.

This really was unheard of, even if someone was caught off guard, being knocked out by a low level in a single move. This had to be a joke! Not to mention, no one had ever heard Aiden practicing martial arts involving kicks.

After all, no matter how you looked, that was definitely not an ordinary kick,

"Umn…I-I.." Leo didn't know what to say to the guy. Should he help or not? He actually didn't want to act violently. It was just that he snapped, you shouldn't push people past their tolerance limit. Especially, when they were not at fault.

Now, he was really nervous now.

Was he going to get in trouble for this? What should he do now? Help him? Apologize? Or run away?

Leo did a back and forth while looking at the guy and the exit.

But in the end, he just hurriedly left the place and ran away.

…

'What the hell is wrong with the people here? Why was he so rude? Did Aiden had some kind of enmity with him?' Leo muttered inwardly after finally finding an empty bench to sit near the streets of the Academy as he watched the students around.

[That was the perfect way of using the Side Kick, your use of energy and timing was perfect. And as you saw, if you can catch an opponent off guard it will still blow him away even if he is a level above you.]

Leo sighed hearing Arthur, he just did that in anger. He really didn't have much control over it. Now that he was thinking, if he hadn't been lucky enough to land the kick, he was sure he would have ended up in a terrible stat.

It seemed that the Basilisk in the morning had boosted his luck here.

'This is all your fault! You made me aggressive. I was never a student who fought. This was my first fighting in school,' Leo sighed while complaining to Arthur. 'What would I do if he come seeking revenge next time?'

[You are not in an environment where you can be at ease. So stop whining about it.] Arthur was savage as always.

'Did you activate [Enhance]?' Leo asked as looked at his own body. He could feel that his body's capability had significantly strengthened.

[Yes, I judged it necessary. If not for this, the person wouldn't have fainted and probably would have came after you.]

Leo felt a cold sweat running down his neck when heard Arthur say those words.

'Anyway, Scan me now. I want to see my assessment in this state.'

[Scanning…]

[Showing results…]

Name: Leo Allison

Race: Glorian

Level: 1 Awake

Yellow Rank Skill: [Charge], [A.I. Mind]

Comprehensive Body Assessment: [F]

His Comprehensive Body Assessment had went up from [F-] to [F]. It probably mean that he had stats around that of Lv 5 or 6 Awake.

In that state he could K.O. a guy at Lv 10 with just a single kick if caught off guard. It seemed that the Kicking technique was no joke.

But wasn't the kicking technique similar to a few other similar martial arts? Then why was it so strong?

[It just isn't the kick but the method of training as well as the right use of your Energy. This is what giving birth to the power behind the kicks.] Arthur explained.

At this moment, two people went by Leo and he could clearly hear them talking about something which picked his interest.

"I heard the people Seniors from the Mech Knight courses are going for a mock battle, let's hurry up!" One of the guy said, he seemed to be a student from a different section as he had the same dress as Leo which belonged to the students of MTP classes.

"Yeah, it isn't every day that you get to see live Mechas in action," the person beside him replied with a hint of excitement.

Leo didn't have anything else to do. So, what could be better than watching some live Mechs in action to pass his time?

'It seems there is finally something to look forward to..'

With that, he got up and followed after the two students and finally reached the Colosseum where the mock battle was apparently going to take place.

Leo could see more than a dozen of students around. They must not be having any classes around this time or were kicked out like him.

Anyway, Leo took a seat and concentrated on the field ahead.

On the either side of the field stood two huge metallic figures of the Mechs giving out a dim luster. The two giants seemed to be a little worn down from the all the fights that they had gone through.

The two metallic giants belonged to the Guardian Knight Series and were labeled as GK 2.0 Model, Gloria's standard Mechs for a Knight from the previous generation. If Leo was the right, then currently 3.0 Models were being used as the standard Mech to equip normal Mech Knights.

The two Mechs were silver in color with a slight horn like protruding from the center of their helmets which looked like a knight's visor from the ancient times. The two had side guards on their thighs which went down like skirts and could even be used a weapon while performing a spinning maneuver. Aside from this, it had another notable feature which was its design. Its upper body came down in a 'V' shaped towards the waist and then similarly extended downward from there on in opposite manner.

"Its Aaron.." Leo was surprised when he saw Aaron walking towards one of the Mechs. It seemed he was taking part in the mock battle. This really left him dumbfounded.

If he remembered clearly then the last time he scanned Aaron, he was only at Lv 29, still a Magnate. How was it possible for him to pilot a Mech?

This really left him grabbing his hairs in utter confusion. He really had no idea what was going around here.

"What's wrong?" A voice came from the side.

Leo suddenly turned his head to the person next to his seat and saw a guy with round glasses on his face and a white lab coat over his student uniform. He seemed to be a senior from Aaron's course but a year younger than him. Obviously, Leo had judging it from his uniform and not with some Esper like powers.

'Human?' Leo clearly was surprised. In the excitement of seeing Mechas, he didn't even realize that the human he had been searching for was sitting right by his side.

"You look so confused?" The person further asked looking at Leo with a smile.

"Umn…yeah, I was just wondering, why he can pilot a Mech when he isn't even a Lv 31 Titled yet.." Leo asked in confusion.

"Where in the world are you living? You don't know about Senior Aaron? He is Golden Ranked Skill user.." The guy said with weird look on his face.

Leo's eyes immediately turned wide.

Now that he remembered it, he indeed hadn't asked anyone about their skills in the family. He only knew that Edgar had a Golden Ranked and was powerhouse.

Considering that, it shouldn't be a surprise that Aaron too had a Golden Ranked Skill. But the revelation still hit Leo hard, this things were just too foreign to him after all.

'Does Amelia have a Golden Ranked Skill as well? What about the Aiden's mom?' Leo couldn't help but think about it.

But wait a second..

"Even if he have a Golden Ranked skill, what does it have to do with being a Mech Pilot at the level of a Magnate instead of a Titled?"

The Question still remained.

It seemed Leo was lacking more knowledge then he thought himself to have about Mechs.
