Chapter 69: S-Class Superiority 1
Kaizer’s arrival naturally rattled the area as all eyes fell on him, knowing that the sudden arrival of a fifth party was likely going to cause a significant change to the balance of the situation.
However, after the young man landed, he simply assessed everyone calmly and silently, not making any moves. It also gave the group time to analyze him and realize a crucial detail, which was the fact that he was not someone any of them recognized!
"This little brother here, you don’t look familiar~ Can you tell us who you are?" The voluptuous woman asked in a sweet manner.
Kaizer swept a glance around. "S-class esper, Overlord."
Everyone’s demeanor changed immediately, disbelieving that a dignified S-class esper would involve themselves in this matter. The reward that the Ancients offered was barely tolerable for low to mid-level A-class espers and very suitable for B-class fellows.
"Huh? I’ve actually never heard of a name like Overlord before. And looking at how young you are, you must be a student, right? At the Esper Academy?" The African American man suddenly said as he thought of something.
"Oh yes, I heard our city’s academy admitted two S-class brats with unparalleled talent, so this young man must be one of them." Sadistic Flame suddenly chimed in, her eyes narrowing with interest.
"Barely two weeks out of training and daring to dip your fingers in this troubled water. I must say that the arrogance of S-class espers is truly reputed." The Buff Military Man remarked with folded arms, his expression casual.
His words had the effect of making everyone realize that this was the case. Even if Kaizer was an S-class esper, he had been in training for likely less than a month given when the news circulated, so what could he possibly know?
He was likely a case of high potential without the necessary talent to back it up, so it was not like they did not have a chance. After all, minus the buff military man’s group of four, everyone else had also attended the academy and had received the full extent of their training.
This calmed them down and also made the situation return to the previous standoff.
