Chapter 59: You bastard
His body was filled with strength, and his perception sharpened. He narrowed his eyes and captured Dray in his eyes. The short boy was like a wrung cloth the way he was standing, waiting for the slightest push to lurch forward.
An aura of bitter coldness warped around Riven, coiling around his limbs. The two faced each other and the space between them tensed as they waited for the signal to start.
Riven smiled. He really didn’t think of Dray as an opponent, rather like a boy he should teach some things.
Tong was perfectly at ease where he was standing. Jasper had gone to join him. "Senior Brother Tong, this boy is really courting death by challenging you and by getting close to Senior Sister Kivara!"
Suddenly, Jasper felt a pressure envelop him like a ferocious beast was about to swallow him. His heart galloped in his chest and his breath froze. He stiffened and turned to Tong, who was watching him with eyes that were filled with cold.
"Close to which Senior Sister? I warn you, Jasper, you’ve had your fun, but if you refuse to destroy him then you will get destroyed in turn."
Like most bullies, Jasper recognized a threat when he heard one and he totally submitted by nodding so hard it seemed like his head might fall off.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
It was the notice that the fight should start!
Everyone focused on the platform. They knew that Dray wouldn’t likely beat him, but that wasn’t what they were waiting to watch. They wanted to see Riven get humiliated by Dray. A rank one giving a rank two necromancer a hard time!
