Amon, The Legendary Overlord

The instant the fight started, Elijah began buffing himself. Soon after, his body became surrounded by a blue aura that took the form of an extremely fearsome mouse.

Amon surrounded himself with crackling lightning that still had an undefined shape, however, it was chilling to behold. In general, Amon wouldn’t think of using his battle mode, but it seemed he decided to use it this time. The main fact behind this was that Elijah didn’t even activate a long range attack spell. When he moved, it was so fast that the ground seemed to be made of electricity as he exploded in speed, reaching the middle of the dueling field in the blink of an eye.

“Impressive,” Elijah said, only he didn’t exactly sound like he meant it, as he was able to almost get halfway there himself.

Unlike before, Elijah’s eyes had turned cold and dead, almost obsidian black. Even the whites of his eyes turned black as if his eyes had shrunk in size, becoming round like those of a sewer rat. It is a kind of strange comparison, but that was the reality of how he looked; it was like he was simply fighting to survive.

“Oh, Noble Spirit of Rats!”

Elijah recited a spell aloud, which suggested it must not have been a spell mixed with his genetic factor. In the next instant, Elijah’s hands and feet were enveloped in water in the form of sharp rat claws, and a long thick tail was formed on his back out of water as well.

With quick slashes, Elijah slashed at the space in front of him, seeming to calculate Amon’s next whereabouts.

“<Manifestation of Fury>!”

Activating the spell by briefly reciting it, a red scythe that was enveloped in lightning formed in Amon’s hand. The existence of the scythe itself sent shivers down the spines of the onlookers, especially those closest to it.

Elijah took a high leap backward over ten meters away.

‘What the hell was that?’

On instinct, Elijah had backed away. The instant Amon manifested the red scythe enveloped in lightning, fear clouded his heart, making him flinch like a mouse that saw a hungry cat. This was a scythe designed from fury. With Amon’s high compatibility with this spell, the scythe created an aura that resembled the reverse scale of those who saw it, causing fear.

Amon might have been able to partially control it, it seemed, as the girls are unaffected, but the same could not be said for the other students. Some had even taken a few steps back as the hairs on their bodies stood on end.

“Damn it!!!”

Elijah seemed to hate this. He hated being afraid more than anyone, and the fact that he instinctively backed off pissed him off. He had thought Amon was simple, but now he seemed to see him as inscrutable.

Elijah’s aura began to grow stronger, and seeing Amon approaching again, he prepared himself, reciting a spell: “<Mighty is your claws>!”

Almost like bubbles, claws made of water wrapped around Elijah’s hand in a compressed way that suggested them to be very powerful. Meanwhile, like a lumberjack chopping down a tree, Amon charged from the left toward Elijah.

*Whoosh!*

Barely having time to prepare, Elijah counterattacked with his water claw, meeting the tip of the lightning-red scythe Amon had swung.

*BENG!*

The instant the tip of the scythe came into contact with Elijah’s hands that were enveloped in water claws, Amon released a bolt of lightning which passed through the scythe and came into contact with Elijah’s hands.

“Ahhhhhh!”

A loud scream echoed. The electrical discharge was so great that it had an explosive effect when it came into contact with Elijah’s hands, causing an explosion around him, and he was sent away with his hands now sporting a new set of gray stripes.

The pain felt very strong, and Elijah’s face was distorted, however, he had a healing spell which he recited as fast as he could: “Oh Great Rat God of Healing!”

It was confusing because he had chosen all rat-derived spells, however, the effect was very good since even though it wasn’t a merged spell, the healing was good enough to show some effect when healing his arms, making the gray stripes disappear. However, Elijah could not rest, and Amon did not wait for him.

In Amon’s left hand, the scythe’s handle rotated at the wrist. Although the scythe was large, he made it rotate in the middle of the scythe’s handle, thus gaining a lot of speed, and when he approached, it made the scythe slide upwards in rotation.

The instant the scythe finished sliding, Amon gripped the handle with both hands. With the scythe hanging in the air in rotation, he caught it in perfect time to continue the rotation, using his strength to increase its acceleration.

*Whoosh!!!*

The sound of the wind slicing was screaming in a tone that was extremely annoying. Some students in the audience even covered their ears, as the sound was too loud, causing strong gusts of wind to be created in the process as well. However, luckily, the worst of it didn’t reach them, and they moved out of the way to not be affected.

Elijah felt his heart race. He had nowhere else to run, and the scythe was already right above his head.

*<God Rat Tail Defense>!*

For the first time, he activated a mixed spell. In the next instant the rat tail behind him swung up just above Elijah’s head as he crouched down a little and began to make it spin at great speed. Elijah even manifested water around his foot to bind himself to the earth, preventing himself from floating off at that moment, as the tail propeller he had made was able to do that.

The moment the scythe made contact with the tail rotating at great speed, a massive sound of lightning and water connecting erupted similarly to the splash of a large stone falling into a pond.

Elijah’s pseudo tail tried to wrap around the scythe’s blade, however, Amon pulled back a little, taking advantage of the scythe’s curvature, and realized even more electrical discharge.

The tail was still attached to Elijah and the instant the electrical discharge made contact with the tail, it transferred everything to Elijah and he was screaming until his eyes turned white.

*Ding!!!*

A bell echoed loudly, and soon came a robotic voice: “End of Duel! Elijah Rodrigues de Sousa Silva Sauros’ defense has been completely destroyed! Amon Tang is the winner!”

Elijah, in turn, fell to the ground as Amon pulled the scythe back. Elijah’s eyes were white, probably from rolling backward as his body squirmed like a fish out of water.

Bianca and the girls applauded: “Amon!!”

The other students were a little moved. Although they hadn’t seen much, they were already able to partially determine how powerful Amon was. The applause of some students also started to echo, along with some whistles and screams. Some girls jokingly shouted some naughty words, however, they stopped when they received cold looks from Barbara, Maisa, and Julia.

On his digital watch, Amon received a message saying that he had gained 300,000 Credits.

‘Perfect,’ Amon thought.

The feeling of being out of credit wasn’t particularly good, and he didn’t like the fact that he had to use Contribution Points, so he felt a sense of relief now that he had that amount of credit. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

Bianca and the girls approached as Amon walked toward them. After hugging and congratulating him, the girls and Amon headed towards the university’s exit gate by elevator.

Standing in front of Amon, Bianca pouted, but soon she wrapped her arms around his neck and implanted her lips on his, thrusting her tongue into his mouth in a French kiss.

After two minutes or so, she released Amon’s lips with a satisfied look. “See you later, my love~”

“Uh, see you some other time… Tomorrow, I guess?” Amon said uncertainly.

“Okay, you can come with Ariel when she visits to get her chocolate,” Bianca said.

“Okay.” Amon agreed.

Barbara also said goodbye to her mother, as well as the girls.

After that, they went back to take the elevator.

══════ 『 ?? 』 ══════

Almost half an hour later, Elijah woke up again. No one cared that he had passed out. Just the fact that they had not called the university’s nursing team meant that he was ‘fine’, so the people who had been watching dispersed, leaving him lying on the floor passed out.

It wasn’t as if anyone felt sorry for him. The very reason for his request for a duel was revolting. A personality like that, coupled with the fact that they were repulsed by him… people didn’t want to get close to him.

“Who am I, and where am I?…” Elijah was clearly confused by shock. After a few seconds, he came to and began to remember.

For some reason, he slammed his fists into the ground. Creating a hole, he cried, “*Sniff* Damn, damn, damn! I can’t believe I lost to him so pitifully!!”

After nearly half an hour of wailing, he yelled, “Amon! From now on you are my rival!!”
