Chapter 280: Problems at the Welcome Ceremony (2)
"They approached in a polite way that I can't deny. But they insisted that Aelia dance with them and have a few glasses of wine. When she refused several times, they tried to grab her and pin her down at a time when I wasn't looking. Does that seem very different to you, sir?" Matt was the one who spoke calmly.
The fact that he was so calm when those two stared at him from so close gave him several pluses in power.
They both frowned and looked at the members of the Alignment who had been 'assaulted'; both were about to shout in opposition, but an outside voice came out.
"I can testify for the Zen student." Professor Robert said, stepping forward to speak.
"I was talking to him at the time, as the Great Summoner wants to meet him and I was informing him."
'Does the Great Summoner want to meet him?' thought both Lords and looked behind them, strictly at the position where that beautiful, distinguished woman stood.
She nodded softly to them, leaving them both with no choice but to believe. In a moment, Robert's words alone collapsed what the Webb brothers had said.
Besides, even if what Robert was saying was false, his words became true when he announced the name of the Great Summoner, for no one would question the Great Summoner.
That was why both leaders nodded and looked at those two with a reprimanding look. Still, they said nothing.
Such talented new members had to be treated with care to maintain harmony within the Alignment.
Therefore, they both looked at Matt and Alice.
"With the badges thrown on the ground, we can't do anything. They want to challenge them; what do you say? You can back down, and nothing will happen."
Matt smiled, "Fine, I accept the challenge. I don't need anything else, and Aelia won't participate. I want to teach these two not to touch what they shouldn't." Matt replied coldly.
His answer surprised everyone. "You want to fight in two versus one? That's not fair at all."
"No, it would be too unfair if Aelia joins me. It's even unfair for me to fight using my two hands, but since I don't want to damage the Ceremony and my partner's mood, I have to finish everything quickly." Matt smiled after saying this.
He was clearly teasing those two. Showing himself to be overconfident.
That made both Webb brothers frown. "You bastard, you seem very confident. I don't think you really understand what it means to enter the Spirit Alignment. But since you said so, so be it."
They both took a step forward to prevent the Leaders from saying anything to interfere.
Anyway, they wanted revenge from 'Zen' and to get 'Aelia' for themselves. In their eyes, the woman needed to be in the best shape, so it was better if they didn't hurt her.
The two leaders could only sigh.
'Newcomers are always arrogant, but in this case, there is a chance that the arrogant ones are our members instead of this guy.' They thought.
Considering there is a rule that they don't need to find out how much power the new students have, some great genius from outside may enter here. It wouldn't be the first time that a powerful person has been among the newer students.
That's why, in this place, underestimating your rival was dangerous. No matter whether it was a new student or an old one, if you underestimated your rival, you could pay dearly.
It's just that this time, the leaders couldn't be sure which of the two groups would be the one to pay dearly.
'Someone interesting in Mistress Mia's eyes... That's interesting to see.' They both thought and waited.
Immediately after the Webb brothers stepped forward, they summoned their spirits.
The first to do so, the one on the right, summoned a huge fire spirit, shaking the surroundings and making the room hot. The two leaders erected a barrier so that the heat would not escape a certain limit.
This spirit was of the human type. The spirit behind that type was quite large and looked powerful. Suddenly, several enhancements covered that guy's body, increasing his muscles and causing them to shoot fire sideways. In addition, fire magic covered his body, which could be cast from a distance or used at close range.
And a roar was heard to the side. It was not a shuddering roar but a deafening one.
The roar of a great firebird deafened the room as a tremendous power slammed into the other guy's body.
He moved his hands outward, causing wings to grow in his back. These wings contained an immense amount of power. Much of his body transformed to resemble a bird, though it had no feathers except on his wings.
That took Matt aback.
'Wow, so spirits are like that. I feel like the power of both of them shot up greatly. But the main problem is still those abilities they seem to develop...' Matt thought and looked at both of them.
The first guy seemed to be someone focused on melee magics. These magics were always a big problem for Matt on Earth. Find exclusive chapters on m-vl-em-py-r
They are his default counter. But the other one was even floating a few inches off the ground; maybe he could fly, being a troublemaker as well. If he could fly and cast magic with those wings, they would be one of the most dangerous duos Matt had ever faced.
Because while one is fighting him hand-to-hand, the other is hovering in the sky, constantly attacking him.
Matt wasn't worried, though.
'It's a shame you guys pissed me off. I would have wanted to fight you guys for a while; at least then, I could know all my weaknesses. But there's no other way.' Matt thought, smiling softly.
One of the leaders stepped up a bit to act as a referee.
"Start in 3... 2... 1...!"
"Start!"
After that shout, the two guys grinned.
"It's time for you to learn a lesson, you little bastard!" they both shouted simultaneously. One of them jumped upwards while the other lunged forward.
But suddenly, they both felt something holding them firmly by their necks, and their eyes widened in shock...
"That's right; it's time for you two dirty bastards to learn not to touch what doesn't belong to you." Matt whispered in both of their ears.
