Chapter 653 Raze’s Inner Struggle

The reaction in the room was because of the threat Raze had made directly to the Dark Faction, smashing right through the viewing area.

"You should have taken it a step further and used a skill to hit one of them; now that would have been impressive," Mantis said.

"You sure talk a lot about threats, but there is a difference between you two," Beret said. "That guy doesn\'t say things that he\'s going to do, he just does them."

Mantis could see the eyes of many in the room, including the other students; it was almost as if they had admiration for this person. A look he had seen the others have towards him when he was declared top student and given the nickname the Black Tiger.

"You\'ll all see at the end of this, his fame increasing is good for me, because when I best him, it will only increase my legend, as the legend who took down the legend," Mantis answered, but next to no one was listening to him.

Raze took a seat in his normal place, and he could see Alba had returned back to the room. She had given him a slight nod, confirming something between the two.

It went ignored as Lince came to sit next to Raze once again.

"I thought we might have had to jump and come in and try to save you back there," Lince said. "If you were to battle against a Clan Head, or he was to accept your challenge, do you really think you could have won? Would you have really gone up against him?"

"I would have," Raze answered instantly. "Right now, while being surrounded by so many Middle stage warriors and the other factions, it\'s the safest time to fight someone at a strength greater than yours.

"If I lose, I\'m confident you or the Light Faction would stop things, or the Dark Faction themselves wouldn\'t go as far as killing me. As for whether I think I could win or not, I think it\'s possible against him, but I\'m not sure about the other."

Lince had gathered who he meant by the other, because he had caught the attention of all the high-ranking Demonic Faction members. The move by the Flowing Force Clan Leader was extremely powerful, and it had been stopped by one hand.

What was interesting to note was Anna, who was in the room, had been reading Raze while he had given his answer; she could tell everything he said was true, even the fact that he could beat the other Clan Head.

She could see that had also riled up some feathers among those in the Demonic Faction.

\'That young boy, he is not afraid to make anyone his enemy; what Beret said about him is true, he just acts, and it\'s hard to tell if everything is one whole calculated plan or not,\' Anna thought, but she was sure it was the latter based on the meeting they had just before they were to take part in the tournament.

"Will the two participating in the tournament please come to the stage!" The announcer shouted.

There was a short break between the last fight and the current one, mainly due to repairs that were taking place in the Dark Faction viewing area. Some also believed that the organizers, the Light Faction clans that were in charge, were deciding what to do with the Dark Faction, and in the end, they had done nothing after the repairs were done.

There was no time for complaints from the crowd, and they knew that their complaints wouldn\'t amount to much; instead, they were just going to focus on the fight right up in front of them.

Seeing Safa walk out, Raze placed his hand on his face and changed his seating position as he looked at her.

\'His heartbeat rose, and he\'s looking more anxious. He felt this way when he saw members of the Dark Faction; it\'s clear he knows all of those participating,\' Anna thought. \'But this person, it\'s different for him.\'

\'If I remember the reports correctly, she was his sister, and someone who was made a field agent for Alter. For someone who he cares for so much, I wonder why he\'s trying to hide it.\'

Anna, through her very own system, was seeing a side of Raze that no one could see. This side was what had caused Raze to act in the first place. When he could feel the immense amount of Qi coming from the room, he instantly felt like he needed to do something in case she was in trouble.

Memories of Sabrina were coming back to him, and of Jake, and he didn\'t want it to happen a third time, not while he was there and he could do something. Then after seeing Mada held up like so, he had made the decision.

\'I still wasn\'t so sure about whether I could rescue them or not from the Dark Faction; if there was a chance, I was going to take it, but leaving them in the hands of the Dark Faction, there\'s too much risk, I will get them out of that situation.\'

Raze could see at times, the Middle stage warriors on stage were too slow to act, and that was unacceptable. If something was to happen right in front of Raze during this match and he could stop it, he would do so, risking everything.

Placing his hand on his chest, Raze had a few words. \'I\'m not sure if it\'s even this old soul in me that wishes for me to protect her anymore… it might just be me.\'

In the Light Faction viewing area, Beatrix had watched her student leave the stands. She could feel the immense amount of weight that was on her shoulder as the only Light Faction contestant left.

It wasn\'t meant to be this way; sure, she wanted her student to do well, but Ulyn was always the favorite.

\'There are only two ways for you to win this event: during it, to overcome large obstacles now and grow, or to accept the help of the Clan Heads.\'

Beatrix thought about moments ago what had just happened before Hannah had entered the stage. The two of them gave each other eye contact for a few moments, and then she reached under her clothing and pulled out the necklace from over her head.

She handed it back to Beatrix, the gift that had been given to her before this tournament had started.

"Using this, it would be cheating, wouldn\'t it."

"What!?" Beatrix replied with a nervous look on her face.

"I thought you didn\'t know, but I guess that answers it. I had an inkling of what these items would do, that everyone in the Light Faction would hold, but it wouldn\'t be fair to rely on that power. I wish to win this battle with my own strength, and in doing so, become the strongest in the Light Faction."

"My opponent will take me on fair and square, so I have to do the same," Hannah said, heading out.

The two of them had met in the middle of the stage, Safa with her spear, and Hannah holding her sword in front of her.

"There\'s a rumor you know, that the person I bested before might not actually be the White Dragon, and that it might be you. I hope I get to see that," Hannah said.
