Chapter 661 Follow The Rules, and Die

??On the second floor of the arena where the great Pagna Martial Arts tournament was taking place, there was one of the participants that had left the viewing area and had headed straight for the organizers of the event.

To where the three clan heads that were on top of the Light Faction. No one knew what was going on, unaware of the troubles behind the scenes.

Having requested a meeting with the three Light Faction heads to stop the match, Slip, a member of the Light Faction had reluctantly taken the student known as 'Jake' to be seen.

This was against the rules, the order that the Light Faction had, and as a consequence, they had decided to eliminate the one that had broken the rules.

When Slip closed his eyes thinking that his life had come to an end because of this moment, he had opened them to see the very student that had forced him into this situation protecting him.

'A student from the Demonic Faction just saved me… why would he stop the strike, wait how was he even able to stop that attack just now.'

"What words spoken from a student of all things." The attacker and guard said. "What you had said, are threatening words while being on the soil of the Light faction, so that gives us every chance, to eliminate yo-"

The guard had stopped mid-sentence because the wind had already been kicked out of him. In the middle of his conversation Raze lifted his foot and kicked him right in the stomach.

"You, how dare you!" The other guard said drawing his sword and swinging it across.

Raze carefully deflected the hit using the techniques he had learnt from the Moon Shield Clan, and made sure to condense his Qi, causing the other sword to bounce off.

Raze took a step back, as the Warrior swung his sword a couple more times throwing a strike or two, but they did nothing as they just flung through the air.

Placing his hand over his fellow colleague he lifted him up.

"Are you okay?"

"It was a cheap shot, as expected of the demonic Clan, you have no honor." The man said as he reaffirmed his position, the two of them looked at the student in front of them, now wary.

"Is he really a student participating in this tournament, because based on your skill you seem more like an assassin that is here to take out our Clan heads!" The guard pointed the tip of his sword toward Raze.

Now, Slip who had guided Raze here stood on his feet, but made sure to stay behind Raze. The Dark Magus was still undecided himself with what to do, which was why he hadn't gone forward to strike or kill the two in front of him.

'Going against the three Light Faction leaders isn't a wise thing to do.' Raze thought. 'I know I wouldn't have the strength to take them on, but through speaking to them, I had two goals in mind, stopping this entire match, and finding out just what connection they had with the magical items that have been used.'

Raze knew killing the guards wouldn't exactly put the Light Faction in the mood to talk. At the same time, both of the guards were quite strong, to beat them at the same time, most likely he would need to use magic.

"If you were to head into that room you would be dead in an instant." One of the guards said. "However you won't get into that room, because this is our duty and this is our role."

"Your duty and role… I have simply requested a meeting, I did not wish to see blood, I just wish to speak to those on the other side of that room." Raze said again.

He could feel the two emitting Qi from their bodies, and in response Raze started to do the same. He wanted the two of them to think carefully, if he could at least match one of their Qi, then perhaps it would be a warning to them, that in this fight they could possibly die.

However, it didn't seem to work, as the two jumped right at him. Raze swung his sword at the first one hitting it away, but the middle stage warriors were quick to pull back the sword and strike again.

For a moment with Raze's other hand he thought about pushing the other back with wind magic, or a Dark pulse, but instead he kicked off the ground using his Qi.

'Fighting without magic, and so close this is going to be a hard fight…but I don't want to give them any clues.'

Instead of using his magic, and trying to delude the others from fighting. Raze decided to let out all of his Qi, even larger than before, and forced it out in front of him.

Slip who was by his side, had an idea of what Raze was doing.

'He…was a middle stage warrior after all. It was no wonder that none of the other students stood a chance in the event. I can guess what he's trying to do, judging by his actions and the skills I've seen before, he doesn't want to help, he is just trying to save his friend.'

Tightening his fist, Slip then stood upright by Raze's side.

"This student is only here to request a meeting with the organizers, there are no other intentions I guarantee that, which is why I came here. I performed my duty by looking after the guests as I was told.

"One of my other duties was to protect the guests from any trouble that was to occur, if you plan to go down this road, then I will also stand by his side."

Slip drew out his sword. Just moments before he was ready for them to take his life, because he had believed he had done wrong, but Slip realized in those moments he wanted to live, and his wish was granted.

On top of that, he was a middle stage warrior, with his help he could at least do something to help this student.

Now that Slip had joined the other side, the two guards were looking at each other, and were starting to have second thoughts. Fighting against the student at full force would be too much, but now having another warrior made their jobs a lot harder.

"You wouldn't dare." The guard stated.

"You can test my commitment if you want, but you have to remember, the person by my side, saved me, and the person on the opposite side tried to kill me. My honor tells me who to save, and don't you think two against one is also dishonorable?"

With the mass amount of Qi coming from not too far away from the hallway, the three clan heads that were sitting in their seat and observing the match so far, could feel what was happening behind them.

"Do you think someone is trying to attack us, and assist of some sort?"

"Do you really think that would happen, sending anyone strong enough to kill us would have dealt with the two guards in an instant. While the three of us are together it is not a good time for them to attack."

"That's for sure, this fight has gone on for an incredibly long time as well, when is one of them going to fall dead."

While continuing to observe the match, the energy behind them had grown, to the point that it had become a concern.

"I think it might be best, I go check it out, just in case." Ricar Highborn answered the head of the Dawnblade Clan.
