Chapter 374: Ugh, this is why I hate studying
Thanks to those old men’s intervention, the sports event that was supposed to be a fun event for the awakened students, even if it was organized to distinguish those with potential, was now about competition between the strongest.
In other words, anyone below B-class was literally just a bystander unless they had skills that could rival those of the A and B-class... Which was next to impossible.
They simply had it out for Alice and wanted to watch a good show but she had no plans of making things spectacular. She would give them the most boring fight they had ever witnessed.
(She’ll probably change her mind when her opponent happens to be the demon that’s now escorting Elizabeth. The fight will be hot)
And now, standing opposite Alice with his sword out was the sword user of class A. His name was Steven.
He was a rather quiet boy, if she could say so herself, since she had never once heard him speak and he was mostly minding his business.
But since he was in her class, she was certain he knew of her capabilities and how ’strong’ she was. And yet... He had this bold expression on his face, looking unnerved and indifferent as he awaited the moment to strike her with his weapon.
She didn’t know if he was just trying to stay calm because panicking wouldn’t help or if he was simply that confident in his skills while hoping that she was still a novice with the sword... Whichever it was, this guy had guts.
"Are both sides ready?" Philip asked, and Alice gave her an okay sign with her hand.
She held her sled with both hands, pointing the tip slightly upwards while facing Steven. She could simply swing down and clash the ground into two but she decided to minimize the amount of damage done.
And that was the hard part. Holding back.
