My Angelic System

Chapter 38 Golden Hues

"Yes, don't worry guys. I know what I'm doing," Kye said with a smile as they all walked toward the west ring.

One ring was positioned on every side of the military. North, south, east, west. And since the weapon and ability class were close to the west ring, they all went there.

Kye's friends would have liked to go to another ring to buy more time, thus managing to convince Kye that fighting Bulk wasn't a good idea, but even with more time, nothing would have changed. As they hang out with him, Yugo, Ven, and Lidi all understood that once Kye had an idea in his head, he wouldn't let the others stop him.

And this time wasn't different.

Kye knew what he was doing. He wanted to go there and give up the moment the fight would begin. Like this, everyone should be happy. Bulk and his friend because he would have given up in fear of being beaten by a high-level, and his friends because he wouldn't get hurt.

'Even if I do that, I don't think it will solve anything,' Kye thought as they entered the ring area. It was a close building where neither rain nor wind could enter. The ceiling was very high, and it was completely made of glass, thus letting the sunlight hit the inside very easily. But even with that, the building was very cool to stay in. 'As far as I know, people like them get even angrier when the one they want to bully through a "loyal" fight gives up. So I don't know what should I do anymore.'

As he said, it was very rare that people like Bulk will let him go with a hollow victory like the one Kye was going to give him. And things could get even worse if he were to do that. In fact, if he were to do that, Bulk's friends would probably come to fight too. And obviously, Kye's friend too wouldn't let that happen. So a big fight could happen if he were to do that.

"*Sigh* I don't know what to d-..." Kye was saying to himself in a low voice when he suddenly heard the system notification noise.

[Win the fight.

Reward: instant level up]

'Well at least I know what to do now,' Kye rolled his eyes as he entered the ring. Bulk did the same on the other side.

"Kye, can't you just not fight?" Yugo asked. "I don't want to see you hurt, especially against such an a*sh*ole like him."

"I'm happy for your concern Yugo, but please believe in me," Kye answered with a comforting smile. "I know that I'm weak and that you guys had the urge to prevent me from anything that could endanger me, even if it's just a little, but I can fend for myself, especially in situations like this. Sure I can't be as holy as I would like, but I still have a decent level with the sword, so please believe in me."

Kye was very happy to have friends such as them. They knew his secret and didn't change their attitude toward him in the slightest. Even Lidi. Sure she didn't know that he was an Angel, but he was sure that even if she knew, she would have treated him as well as before.

Not that he will go out of his way to tell her that. That's why he said "holy". It was a hint for the boys, and they understood immediately. As for Lidi, she just shrugged when she heard that. It didn't seem to have any real meaning, so she just nodded when Kye said that.

They were indeed being a little too overprotective over him, but they couldn't help it. So it was good for Kye to remind them of that.

"Do I need to wait for you to f*ck each other or what?" Bulk shouted from the other side of the ring as all his friends except the one with light purpled hair laughed. The latter just rolled his eyes at the remark.

"No, or maybe you want to join us?" Even though it was a remark that Ven could have said, this time, it wasn't him who said that. No, it was Kye, and all those who were behind him looked at him with shocked eyes. It was the first time they heard him talk like that, not that they disliked it. Even the light purpled-hair guy smirked hearing that.

"You-..." The bulk was completely red with anger. And instead of saying anything else, he began to run toward Kye at his full speed.

'It's strange. Is he slower than last time?' Kye thought as he unsheathed the weapon he would use in the weapon class.

*Clang*

*Swoosh*

*Cling*

For the first time, Kye wasn't dodging. Bulk seemed quite slow to him, so he tried to train his parrying. Nonetheless, he was still careful. Bulk's ability wasn't something he could par easily. Sure his body was slow, but his weapon speed wasn't the same. And the more Bulk made a strike and Kye blocked him, the faster he was getting.

So much so that at some point, Bulk almost made a hole in Kye's head.

Thankfully though, Kye managed to dodge at the last second. And strangely enough, Bulk speed had completely lowered. It was the same as the beginning of the fight.

'I see,' Kye smirked. 'His ability allow him to go faster and faster after every hit he does. That's why his hit was so light at the beginning. So his ability is useless if I dodge instead of parrying."

Bulk swung his spear, but this time, instead of parrying with his sword, Kye dodge it. Bulk didn't think of anything at the beginning, but after Kye kept dodging, he got angry.

"Stop dodging you bast*rd," He swung and swung again, but Kye only dodged with a smirk on his face. It was as if a Kye was dancing with his opponent by dodging every single of his thrust or swing.

Kye had great eyes, and his friends in the weapon class understood that easily the more they fought him. And those eyes were now extremely useful because he was seeing every single of Bulk's movement very easily and with a lot of precision. So much that he even managed to predict some of his attacks as time went on.

"He's clearly playing with him," The light purpled-haired guy said in a low voice with a little smile.

"Did you say something, Enzo?" The red-haired guy asked the purple dude.

"No, don't worry," Enzo answered him.

*Swoosh*

*Swoosh*

*Swoosh*

Kye kept dodging with a grace that represented the Angel race well, and at some point, he decided to be on the giving side a little. Bulk was clearly inferior to him when he didn't have his ability with a high level of speed, so there wasn't any point in keeping this fight continue.

*Clang*

Kye pushed Bulk's spear away before rushing toward him at a far greater speed than Bulk used at the beginning before doing a shoulder bump.

Bulk got destabilized and almost fell, but as someone who had some experience in fighting, he managed to stabilize himself, only to see no one in front of him anymore.

It was as if Kye had just disappeared. But the reality wasn't as good as he would have liked to think.

Bulk felt a cold blade pushing his neck slowly. When he looked behind, he could see that it was Kye, and his blue eyes weren't as clear as before. It was as if golden hues obscured his eyes. But they soon turned blue again once he put his sword away.

"Now scram. You're clearly no match for me," Kye said with an authoritative tone and began to walk away.
