Chapter 132 Friend's Dream
Chay decided to go all out this time. She used ‘Quick Hands’ to increase her attacking speed. This skill also created the illusion of multiple fake attacks, which made it very difficult for the opponent to defend himself.
The opponent didn’t have much time, so he decided to guess the real attacks and used his weapons to defend himself, but just as his weapons made contact with those daggers, they bypassed them as if they were normal air.
He realized he was in big trouble, but there was not much he could do, so he used the ‘Toxin Burst’ skill to release a large amount of poison.
Chaya smiled as her two shining red daggers pierced through her opponent’s fully clothed body barrier and wounded his chest, but before she could enjoy it, a green mist came out of her opponent’s body and touched her skin.
Chaya jumped back in fright, but it was already very late. A small green layer started covering her whole body, and she became weak every second.
As she was struggling, she heard a laugh, “Ha ha ha ha!” and “Did you like my present, Chaya?” Chaya, who had her whole body out of her control and even struggled to stand, asked, “Who are you?”
“You remember there was a boy who pushed you at the freshmen party, and you rejected him, but not only did you reject him, you even humiliated him in front of others,” said the fifth opponent.
“Don’t tell me you are that idiot; don’t you know how many times I rejected your proposal politely before that?” Chaya said in an angry tone, “But you followed me like a creep; do you know how awkward it was for me? My friends even made fun of me.”
“It was all because of you; I was already not in a good mood that night, but you decided to make it worse. You deserved it.”
She sighed before saying, “Tell me what else I could have done; I thought you had changed and given up on me after I hadn’t seen you since that day, but it looks like I was wrong; you were just looking for ways to get your revenge.”
The boy remained silent briefly before saying, “He was a kind person from the day I knew him; he never even killed a normal monster for fun.”
“He was a vegetarian who liked peace; he realized on that day when a monster horde attacked our village that he needed to become strong to protect his village. He started training and killing wild beasts from that day on to get strong.”
“When he passed the Mazar Academy’s test, everyone celebrated in our village. Do you know how everyone misses him now?”
“Wait a minute, aren’t you that guy, and what happened to him?” asked Chaya.
The opponent said in a sober tone, “After you humiliated him and left, the other students also bullied him and made fun of him every day.”
“He wanted to forget you and focus on his main goal, but all the bullying and mocking overwhelmed him. At last, he decided to leave and go to another academy.”
“When he reached the village, he saw a bigger beast horde attacking; he fought and risked his life, saving many of our villagers, but he was poisoned while saving a woman from the wild beast. The villagers took him to the hospital nearby, but the hospital could not treat him and asked the villagers to take him to town.”
“In between the journey from village to town, he passed away.” Chaya didn’t know what to say for a moment; she knew that it was not her fault, but she couldn’t turn a blind eye to the fact that she was also involved in it.
She knew her friends and classmates were bullying him, but she never topped them.
“Do you know what the last thing he said when he was dying?” said the opponent before pausing for a second and replying, “He said he regretted that he could not apologize to you before dying.”
“That’s how he wass; He liked you, so he was committed to that feeling. Tell me, did he ever cross the line and do something that harmed you?”
Not only Chaya but everyone else was speechless when they heard this story. Who was right and who was wrong was a different matter, but the thing that mattered was that such a good person had passed away.
“I came here not for your sympathy, not for revenge,” he stood up before approaching Chaya and put his knife on her throat before saying, “I am here to complete his dream, which was to become a powerful beast tamer and protect the people of my village.”
“Revenge I have already gotten from all those bullies’, and I hope Ram’s soul will be happy when he sees this from heaven.”
“I know I am not strong enough right now, and these ways that I use are not admirable nor honorable, but sweetie, I am not kind like Ram; I am merciless Laxman, who cares more about results,” he said as he dug his knife into her neck’s skin.
His eyes showed a cruel glint when he looked at the blood coming from her wounds. He smiled and said, “One more thing, the poison I used from the start has two properties: one, it weakens the immune system of humans, and second, you will feel pain all over your body for a week.”
“I hope you remember him for at least a week,” he said before slitting her throat and laughing manically. Lalit smiled and celebrated the victory of Laxman; This guy was an angel in his eyes; that’s another thing that not many people would agree with him.
When Rishi looked at him, he didn’t know what to say; he found this person very interesting. If he could recruit him, then this guy was a perfect person who could literally do anything Rishi asked of him.
He was an ideal assassin to take care of his enemies, but the question was whether he would be interested in joining Rishi.
Rishi didn’t want to recruit him in the guild; he wanted to have him in the second guild, which he had plans to make in the future, filled with only assassins and bounty hunters. I will need to have a private conversation with him.𝓃𝒐𝗏𝐞𝔩𝐧𝑒xt.𝐜𝗈𝓶
“What an interesting battle. It was full of twists, turns, and emotions. I am not sure who was in the right and who was in the wrong; all I have is respect for both of them,” said the commentator.
“While I feel bad for Chaya to lose at the end, this is how the world works: the defeat of one person is the victory of another. Laxman fought this battle cautiously and used his head to outsmart his opponent. We all know the ultimate law of battle. Victory is victory; it doesn’t matter how you win,” commented Shreya.
