The Ruler Of Night

Chap 21's. Timed

The match still continued, and already many of the academy's disciples were getting their turn to fight one-on-one over the arena.

Some matches were over and I went through them to accompany Rin and make sure she was okay.

Currently the two disciples who were facing above the arena were those with the number seventeen and eighteen, that meant that it would be my turn to descend into the arena soon.

"Hey Oda, let's go to the treatment room, I'm sure Rin has recovered by now" Shira told Oda.

"Ah yes, you are right Shira, let's go there" said Oda who seemed difficult to turn his attention to the match.

Shira just smiled and slightly shook her head, seeing Oda's behavior.

But when the two of them were about to leave, I and Rin had already arrived at the spectator bench where they were.

"Hey, where are you going?" I was the one who came suddenly.

"Yuta! Rin! I thought you were still in the treatment room" Shira said in surprise.

"Thank God you've recovered, huh, Rin?" he continued to make sure Rin's condition.

"Yes, I'm sorry to bother you guys" replied Rin who felt bad for us.

"No one feels bothered by you Rin, right Yuuta?" shira said as she glanced at me.

"Ahaha, of course," I said with a small laugh while stroking my head.

But immediately I realized the existence of Oda behind Shira,

who looked very focused on paying attention to the match above the arena.

"Hey Oda! what did you see until you didn't realize we were here" I asked.

Hearing my loud voice, Oda was surprised and looked at the three of us.

"Oh!? Yuta! you're back yet?" ask Oda.

"Rin! are you all right?" he continued asking about Rin's situation.

Rin just kept quiet and smiled as she nodded her head slowly.

While I began to pay attention to the arena of the match, out of curiosity what Oda had noticed there.

There were two female students who were competing there, and I felt like I knew about what made Oda so interested in the current match.

"It is only fitting that you pay attention to the arena of the match,

it turns out that there are two female students who are competing, huh?" I said with a cynical smile mocking Oda.

"No! not so, I was just amazed by the agility of their movements," said Oda who tried to give an explanation.

"You can't lie in front of me, Oda" I said, embracing Oda with my left hand, and scrambling her hair.

"Ouch! hey, stop Yuuta, I'm not lying" Oda said.

Rin and Shira just kept quiet and laughed at the behavior of both of us.

*TENG!!!

The bell had been rung, a sign of the match between the two female disciples finally finished.

The match between the two girls from Class Ranger and Valkyrie had been going on for quite some time, and finally Master Hisobu announced the girl from the Ranger class as the winner.

All the students cheered loudly to give their support and appreciation.

When the situation above the arena was back to normal, Master Hisobu again gave an announcement about the next match.

"For the next match, students who get number 19 and 20 please prepare to enter the arena of the match!" teacher Hisobu.

I, who had just returned from the treatment room, was shocked by the announcement.

"Finally," said Shira who seemed to be looking forward to it.

"Fight, Yuuta!" said Rin.

"All right, everyone, I will go down and prepare for the match" said Ku with enthusiasm.

"Don't lose!" said Oda.

"Show them your strength, Yuuta!" rinn said, looking very excited.

"I'm sure you can, '" Shira said with confidence.

I nodded my head and hurried away from the audience bench to prepare for the match.

After studying and training for two years in the royal academy, I finally got the chance to show everyone here.

"I'll show you the results of my training all along," my inner self.

A few minutes passed, and the two disciples who were about to compete were already ready to enter the arena.

"I can't wait to see Yuuta fight!" said Oda with a burning spirit.

"Yes! Me too" Shira said.

"All right! this is the tenth of twenty-five matches to be played today" Master Hisobu said.

"And maybe in this game it will be very interesting" he continued and rushed up to the second floor of the arena.

Shortly after Master Hisobu left the arena, finally the two students who will compete this time also began to show themselves and enter the arena of the match.

I walked slowly into the arena with a katana sword on my left, and light armor given to each disciple to protect the body.

"Yuta! don't lose!" yelled Oda from the audience.

"Fight, Yuuta!" continued Rin who encouraged me.

All the disciples cheered after the two disciples who were about to compete started entering the arena, but there were also those who wondered about me and doubted my victory.

"Wouldn't he be that child who doesn't have magic powers? I'm sure he'll lose" one male student told a friend next to him.

"Yes, what's more when we find out who he's going to be dealing with" his friend replied.

There was a male disciple of the Ranger class who looked extremely strong with his pair of short swords, and he was Kirei.

The one who greatly irritated me because of his arrogance, and behaved at will to every student in the academy.

"Hey Shira, did I see wrong or was that person Kirei ?" ask Oda.

"You're right, the one who's going to confront Yuuta is Kirei" Shira replied.

"Curf-!"

Knowing that Kirei will be facing me,

making Oda and Rin feel very upset as if they want to come along to beat him up.

"Aahaha! I did not expect at all, that you would be my opponent," said Kirei who laughed grinningly.

"I was also initially worried about who I was going to face. But after knowing that you were the one, I was no longer worried about it at all, "Reply with a cynical smile.

"Basic boy! you should know about our power difference, without magic power you wouldn't be able to defeat me!" pissed Kirei.

"Strength without reason, like a pig in the wilderness," I said with a hint of arrogance.

"Damn it! I'll make you regret what you did!" reply Kirei who was provoked by emotion.
