Chapter 132 Winner Without A Calm Mind
Sato punched the ground, causing the ground to crumble so Lazurus could lose his footing. But Lazurus didn't fall for it.
He slashed his blade vertically on the ground, this led to the ground splitting in two before it could implode.
"Come on, you can do better than that!" Lazurus yelled, positioning his sword to the back as he got ready to unleash a rush of magic.
Slash!
Lazarus swung his blade, sending a huge amount of magic toward Sato. The magic exploded upon colliding with Sato's position.
Sato rushed out of the dust with fire rushing out of his hands and aimed at Lazarus, who was quick to shield himself with his blade.
Lazarus struggled to hang on to his blade as the fire kept impacting, it was so powerful that the blade was slowly melting.
Sato suddenly stopped his attack, but not for the reasons Lazurus had hoped.
"My instinct was right… he's a worthy opponent." Lazarus said with a warm smile. With his blade still placed in front of him, Lazarus peeped to see where Sato was.
He was startled when he suddenly found Sato in front of him. Before Lazurus could even think of making another move, Sato had already landed a punch to his face.
Lazarus went flying without his blade, while he was still in mid-air, Sato punched him again, slamming him into the ground.
Sato went after Lazurus and punched him again while he was still on the ground, making the earth implode on Itself.
Not letting go and standing above him, Sato groped Lazurus's clothes and began raining a series of punches on his face.
Each punch connected with Lazurus face, bruises, blood, and fear all plastered on Lazurus.
Sato kept going and didn't quit, but when he did, Lazurus was in a state where he couldn't move or make out what was going on around him.
Knowing he had won, Sato stood upright, looking at the blood on his hand with a horrified expression.
"Aril?... W-What's going on with me?" Sato muttered, "I feel so…".
Out of nowhere, a wall of magic sped toward Sato's position, but with no worry, Sato stretched his hand towards it and sent a light beam to shatter the ice into pieces.
"Ahhh, who would have guessed, so it's you, who would have guessed." A man in a dark coat uttered as he walked into the setting.
"An outsider carrying the whole show, now that's just sad." Another contender spoke with a smile.
All around Sato were different contenders, surrounding his position, including Aoi.
"Don't take this the hard way, we just felt taking you out will be the wise thing… you are simply a problem." The young girl spoke with a wipe in her hands.
Sato stood in the middle, his eyes widened in shock as different images of Latina and Elena's death were appearing to him.
'What is this?' Sato thought to himself, his eyes covering his face, he looked to the left and spotted one of the vampires holding a longsword that resembled the one he saw in his visions.
"It was you?...." Sato uttered, with his eyes widened in anger, he flickered toward the male in an instant.
The vampire shook in fear when Sato was suddenly in front of him,
"Hey, don't …"
Before the vampire could say a word, Sato gave him a punch to the stomach, a loud boom following before the Vampire's body went flying and rolling on the ground.
Everyone had shocked expressions on their faces.
"Damnit, you bastard!" One of the werewolves yelled before he launched himself toward Sato.
"Don't interrupt me!" Sato looked at the werewolf and the werewolf was immediately hit by a large falling fireball from the sky.
The weight of the fire slammed the werewolf to the ground, as more fireballs kept raining on him.
The fire didn't stop even when the rest of the team began to take on Sato together, but their luck didn't grow any bigger.
Sato gradually started defeating them, one by one they kept falling, some even running when they could sense Sato's killing intent.
The fight kept going with each person giving it all they've got, but after what seemed to be forever, Sato defeated the last person and claimed the victor.
But due to the anxiety he was having, Sato didn't wait to hear the announcement, he immediately went to his room and began packing his clothes to head back to the village.
"Sato!" Erza stormed inside the room with Delta following right after.
"Sato!" She called out again, "Why did you leave like that?" Erza asked.
"Listen." Sato pulled Erza close, "I need you to go back home and do not leave without Shuna and her sisters with you".
"What do….hold on are you leaving?!" Erza exclaimed, "The royal selection is still on, why leave now? Sato… is something wrong?".
Sato paused, "I.. don't know." He replied, his eyes on the ground as he himself was bewildered.
Erza sighed, placing her hand on his cheeks, "You're just tensed, here, I'll let father postpone the next round so you can rest okay… don't go anywhere." She ran out of the room.
Sato fell to the bed, 'What's going on with me?... It feels just like that time.' He said as he recollected when the Hunter messed with his mind.
"Do you have to go back to the village?" Delta asked, sitting on Sato's gut as she stared at him.
Sato paused, "Probably".
"Okay then, let's go… I can tell you don't feel calm about being away… so if it makes you feel okay, then let's go".
Her words convinced Sato, so he tiptoed out of the apartment so Erza wouldn't stop him from going.
Once he was outside, he picked the nearest carriage and paid the driver to take him to the Witch's forest with Delta following him.
As the carriage moved, Sato's feet kept jiggling with his eyes focused outside the window, "I'm sure it's fine, I'm sure it's fine."
Sato kept murmuring while Delta stared at him with a worrisome expression on her face.
