My Dragon System

Chapter 322 - A Distraction

After hearing Ray's intention, the student's mouths were left wide open. Perhaps they would have understood more if he thought Blake had lost his powers like before. But everyone had just witnessed only a few matches ago, how Blake had beaten his opponent with ease and almost killed him.

'What are you doing?' Mia thought.

The plan was to cause a big distraction not to have everyone's attention focused on him like this. She also didn't understand why was there the need to pick Blake. Mia didn't know how powerful this Nes person was from the Redwings. But she found it hard to believe he would be able to defeat the number one student in school, especially under the guidance of a tower master.

Once again, Mia tried to communicate with Ray telling him to stop, but this time when Ray received the message from the system, he blocked it.

'How, how is he able to stop my communication form going through to him.'

Out from his seat, Dez had stood up a little offended.

"Don't you think you're being too c.o.c.ky boy?" Dez said, "Not only are you part of the lower class and selected an upper-class student but the strongest one in this whole school."

Although it may have seemed strange for a tower master to call his own student the strongest, it just made everyone else in the stand realise how confident Dez must have been in teaching him.

Ray smiled at Dez. "Was I talking to you, if you don't have anything useful to say, then shut your mouth."

"Ho, ho!" Roy shouted, "I kind of like this kid."

A large vein could be seen sprouting on top of Dez's head. If no one was around, he would have secretly poisoned the student by now. Used something that was untraceable.

"Fine, if you wish to be humiliated then go ahead, Blake, take him out," Dez shouted up at the stands.

Blake did as asked and walked down to the centre of the field. To be honest, even Blake didn't like Nes's c.o.c.ky attitude. He remembered when the two had first met, and he had protected Van. And for some reason, he reminded him of someone else.

"Hey, do you really think Nes is going to be okay?" Norah asked.

"I'm not sure, he's the only one out of the lower class to challenge an upper-class student," Bliss said. "If it was one of the others I might have said yes, but I'm afraid Blake is just too powerful."

"Ha, Ha," Just then a laugh could be heard coming from one of their group members. As they turned to look at who it was, they could see it was Max covering his mouth.

Of course, Max was the only one who knew who Nes really was. "Guys relax, I think we're in for a good show."

The others looking at Max thought he was crazy. They just couldn't understand where all his confidence was coming from.

Back on the field, the two students were now stood opposite each other. Mia was on the ground as the judge and couldn't stop looking at Ray.

'Just what are you thinking, do you have a personal grudge or something, if so your mission should take priority. I guess this is what happens when they put a kid on an important mission.'

Ray really did have a grudge against Blake, and it wasn't just for all the stuff he had done to Dan. Ray was holding back every time he saw Blake. He was most likely the whole reason why the Redwings were going through everything.

In fact, he was sure of it, the timing was just too perfect with everything happening.

"Alright, may the match begin!" Mia shouted.

Max knew Ray had to be cautious, he didn't have any of his beast gear and equipment on, and right now, he could only use his fire abilities. He also had to be sure to not reveal too much of his fighting skills and try to win just with magic.

"Who do you think will win?" Betty asked.

"My student, of course," Dez replied.

"Although I would like the gutsy boy the win, I think Dez is correct. He's only in the lower class, and he doesn't have any magical equipment. Even Blake is using that necklace of his with the beast core."

Once again, Blake's necklace around his neck started to glow, and the poison started to drip from his fingertips onto the ground.

"Poison huh, it's so nice of you to give me another attribute I don't have yet," Ray said.

"Show me what you got, you lower-class sc.u.m!" Blake shouted.

"A distraction, huh, well this should be enough."

Putting both of his hands together, Ray started to gather all his fire attribute; first, a small fireball started to form, and soon it grew in size and grew larger. It wasn't the same size as the one he made when fighting the shadow guard, as he had his fire energy skill active back then, but it was still relatively large.

"Oh, this kid, he's a fire mage!" Roy said excitedly. "What power!"

The audience looking at the fireball was stunned, they had never seen one so big before. However, everyone who was in Del's class was just reminded of the powerful Redwing member from back then.

Blake stood there, still. There wasn't enough poison in his whole body to block something of that size. Ray then jumped up high into the air holding the giant fireball above. It was so large it cast a shadow over half of the field.

"This should be a big enough distraction." He said as he threw it down right where Blake was standing.

"Quick, Roy make sure none of the flames hurt the students!" Betty commanded.

Roy stood up from his seat and went closer to the field waiting for the fireball to hit the ground, while Dez went over to his student side and created a wall of green poison to block the attack.

As the ball hit the ground, Flames started going off everywhere on a rampage. They spewed up, blocking the view of the students and the other tower masters. Roy was in full concentration mode as he did his best to make sure the flames didn't hurt the students.

Then when Ray landed back on the ground, he cast his fire attribute and ice attribute creating a mist in the centre.

While Mia was in the centre of the mist, Nes came out towards her.

"You crazy boy." She said, smiling.
