Chapter 134: Die Smiling Or Die Trying [4]
***
Amon averted his gaze from the class, his eyes meeting Arthur and Athena.
They made contact for a few seconds before he saw Arthur's lips move.
He made sense of the words by his lip movements.
'Show. Me. All. You. Can. Do. And. Your. Safety. Is. My. Promise."
As he completed the sentence, Amon was almost tempted to laugh in this grave situation.
'This old geezer...' Amon smirked and nodded.
He looked right and left where the researchers were now looking at him, finally noticing his presence.
And immediately, they fled inside from the doors behind them.
Amon didn't do anything. He had no intention to harm the people that were doing nothing to him.
But just as they left, Amon saw a group of guards appear on his right and left.
He clicked his tongue.
'Well, since he asked for it, might as well give it my all.' Amon concluded as he unsheathed his nodachi.
The distance between the groups was quite large so he couldn't be bothered to use [Voidstep] right now.
Immediately, he saw the guards fire all kinds of spells they could at him.
Keeping his calm, he raised a crystal wall to his right, blocking the group in that direction.
And quickly strode toward the attacks coming in his direction from the left.
Creating a blood shield that covered his body, he slid on the floor, evading 90% of the attacks in the air.
As his eyes locked with the nearest guard, he saw him having an arrow already nocked to his bow.
But before he could release the string, Amon's eyes glowed purple.
Immediately, the guard's body froze for a second.
But that second was enough to make his head fly in the air.
Not giving them any chance to retaliate back, Amon stomped his foot on the metallic floor.
It shook with a large rumble because of the sound mana that coated his foot.
Throw off balance, their attacks were disrupted and they tried to stabilize themselves.
However, that proved to be a fatal mistake as various blood spikes erupted from the floor.
They tore through their uniforms, inflicting deep cuts.
As they fell, bleeding profusely, Amon swung his sword at all of them.
And immediately, heads started to fly into the air.
Unfortunately, that wasn't able to last long as his crystal wall shattered, not being able to support itself anymore.
The attacks passed through, hitting Amon's back directly.
Large amounts of pain shot up in his body as he stumbled on the ground, his uniform searing away to reveal his back.
As he looked back, he noticed that every guard in the facility was there now, all of them informed of his location.
He was completely cornered from every side with nowhere to run.
But, he smirked lightly.
His plan worked.
Without any fear of the incoming volley of attacks at him, he threw his nodachi like a javelin to the other side of the area.
The nodachi was coated in sharp crystal, making it cut through the air cleanly.
It pierced through one of the windows on a floor above the one Amon was currently at.
And just as the attacks were inches away from his body, he disappeared from his spot.
And in the next moment, landed atop the nodachi that pierced the window.
The guards looked at him with undeniable shock, not able to comprehend what he had just done.
But they quickly composed themselves.
Ignoring them, Amon dug out the nodachi from the window and jumped down into the abyss below.
"DON'T LET HIM GET AWAY." The guards screamed.
Peering over the railing, they launched a volley of attacks at Amon, who sent blood spears back at them.
They quickly retreated, letting the spears pass harmlessly to the roof.
Peering once more, they weren't able to see Amon there anymore.
Only darkness.
He had fallen down into the deepest floor of the institute.
"Quick, hurry down! Don't let him escape in any way!" A guard roared and at his words, everyone hurried back inside through the doors.
***
Arthur peered through the window, seeing Amon fight all the guards without an expression of
fear.
He was completely stoic.
'I was right about him...what a strong brat.'
As he saw him take out and kill the guards, Arthur saw no remorse in his eyes.
He even took him by surprise with that nodachi move.
And as he saw the guards lose themselves because of his jump into the abyss, he was almost
tempted to break into laughter.
"What's wrong?" Athena asked, seeing the tremble of his shoulders.
He shook his head with a smile.
"Nothing much..."
He looked up to the roof of the institute with a smile, which was followed by Athena.
"Just that we have a cunning chap on our hands."

"With all due respect Princess Alya, are you suggesting us to stop the arrest of a criminal?"
Migar questioned.
Normally, they wouldn't be able to talk back to her like this no matter what she requested, let
alone stand and protest against her.
It was because she was currently an Eldergrove Student.
The authority she held was only about 10% right now.
Alya gulped inwardly.
She knew this wasn't about to be easy.
Especially because they had an advantage over her right now.
"Are you suggesting that you won't follow my orders just because I'm a student right now?"
Alya asserted her tone.
She didn't like to do these things. She even hated using her background power.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Yet, just for this once, she would give in.
'Hopefully, I can help you for a little while.' She spoke in her thoughts, referring to Amon.
She took a step forward.
"You do know who my father is right? And who I am?" She stepped further into James' face.
"It doesn't matter right now princess. You are a student right now in Eldergrove, not a
princess-"
James tried to retort but was abruptly stopped as Elizabeth replied in a cold monotonous
voice.
"Do you really think that matters? Would our parents obey the rules over the wishes of their children?" She sat down in Shina's chair.
"That's favoritism!-" Shina tried to reply back in anger but was interrupted as well by Ren
who took a puff of his cigarette.
"So what? Cry about it bitch." He laughed.
"You!!"
"There's also the fact that you fail to consider about the future. Let's say you get off the hook
this time, do you really think the people here would let you live in the future when they sit over the thrones?" Elizabeth looked at Migar with a cold glare.
The only person who was silent till now was the old man who simply leaned back in his chair.
Just as James was about to retort back in anger, a spatial sound was heard in the air. The eyes of the leaders widened as they turned sharply to Ren who smirked. "Spatial Lock, completed. Now sit here and cry for 20 minutes bitches before you can leave."
He showed his hand, indicating how he copied [Space] from Athena when he handed her the
gum.
He then leaned back in his chair, laughing.
"Dumbass people." He sneered.
