Hero of Darkness

Chapter 247: Know Your Place

Before Kahn could track down the source of the killing intent, it suddenly disappeared as if nothing happened.

But instead of dwelling on it, Kahn returned to the resting hall and waited for his next match.
If some ignorant dumbass wanted to pick a bone with him, hed entertain them.

After another hour, his turn came and for the second match, his enemy was a human mage whose face was covered behind a metallic mask.

And as soon as Kahn entered the ring, this mage released his aura of a beginner master rank magician which contained killing intent towards the opponent.

So it was you..
Mind if I ask about why did you release a killing intent towards me back then? asked Kahn as he recognized this aura.

It was the same killing intent he felt after defeating his previous opponent.

Because you fight in a cowardly way.
You threw away your weapon just to create an opening and then beat your opponent by knocking them out with a simple attack.
Its as if youre toying disrespecting your enemy.
spoke the mage in a righteous tone.

And most importantly..
How dare you hit a woman on her nape? Dont you know theyre very weak there?! shouted the mage.

On the projection screens, this garnered the attention of many people again.

The previous fight was nothing out of the ordinary but this one seemed to have the drama involved in it..
So naturally many felt more inclined towards a spiced-up battle.

[Eh? Where the hell did this nut job come from?]

Oye fuckface!..
Dont go around throwing your delusional thoughts and preferences on people about how they should fight.

There are no rules about how you fight and win against an opponent, let it be a man or a woman.

This is a competition where people put their lives on the line.
And I dont care who you are trying to impress or putting up a pretense for.

Either fight me fair and square or go suck on your mommas titties!

And if you cant do that..
Then just shut the fuck up!! berated Kahn in an irritated tone.

Pfft!!

Hahaha!!

Huehuehue!!

Thousands of people among a million spectators who paid attention to their match laughed off collectively and their burst of laughs resounded in the entire arena after Kahns reply to his enemy which they heard on the screen.

You..
What did you say?! fumed the mage in rage.

Just in 10 seconds, Kahn embarrassed the upstuck and pretentious mage in front of everyone.

At this moment, there was a certain group of people amongst the east end of the 4th platform that was throwing deathly glares at Kahn after he publicly humiliated this mage.

That bastard..
How dare he insult our magic associations youngest prodigy in front of so many people?! scorned a female elf donned in mage robes.

Inside the battlefield, the mage was completely enraged and asked..

You..
Whats your name? he asked in a contemptuous tone.

Ask your mom.
She screamed it all night.
replied Kahn with a charming smile.

Another burst of the crowd laughing echoed in the whole arena as many of them could barely contain their laughter.

Start!! signaled the referee.

As soon as the fight began, the mage started casting his spells instantly and launched them at Kahn furiously.

He frantically attacked the opponent after the insults he endured.

As for Kahn himself..
He had zero fucks to give to some moron with protagonist syndrome.

And even after the first minute, not a single spell landed on Kahn as he was simply too agile despite limiting his rank and stats.

During the fight, Kahn was finally able to harvest the benefits of breaking through to the intermediate rank mage a month ago.

Because as he was facing this mage who was trying to hurt him with various spells like a rabid dog, Kahn was sensing what kind of spell the opponent was going to cast because of the rise in rank as a magician.

His perception of magical elements and spells based on their structure was already leagues above compared to others of his ranks thanks to the blessings from War Deity and all the hard work he put through over 2 months just for setting a solid foundation as a mage during his training period.

All that study and practice about mana manipulation and elemental structures was finally proving useful.

In simple words, he was able to sense what kind of elemental spell or attacks let it be fire or ice spells this mage was casting before they even formed completely.

And then he would choose to dodge or counteract and fight accordingly.

Meanwhile, Omega, Ronin and Oliver were sitting amongst the audience and ordering their people through transmission artifacts to bet on Kahns registration number.

With an explanation that he was one of their chosen fighters for the competition and they had to bet all the money that was given to them on this young man.

During the last minute of the allotted time, Kahn decided to stop playing and charged at the mage with full speed.

Boom!!

Kahn used his spear to land a fatal blow on the ground and shook the battle ring.
The shockwaves disoriented the mage and before he could even regain his posture, a swift and hard kick landed on his chest as he was kicked out of the battle ring.

Know your place, trash!

Know

The mage was frothing through the mouth and was barely conscious at this point.

Gasp!

Hundreds of gasps were heard among the crowd as they saw how quickly Kahn finished the fight and many could see that he was holding back till this point.

After the fight ended and he received his new registration token for the next round that was scheduled for the next week, Kahn silently left the battle arena.

Even the people from the mages side failed to track him as they wanted to avenge their comrade.

At midnight, Ronin came back after collecting and tallying all the numbers.

How much? as Kahn

Ronin gave a light smile and reported..

Todays haul is 8 billion gold coins, my lord.

As soon as Kahn heard the count, he took a deep breath and gazed at the bright midnight moon as he spoke with a content voice.

Subarashi..
