Chapter 165: One-Hit Defeat [3]
****
"Greetings, Princess Alya." Katherine was about to bow to Alya.
"Please stop, there's no need." Alya stopped her by putting a hand on her shoulder.
She smiled at Katherine.
"You are the sister of my friend, it would be disrespectful to make you bow."
"In fact, I should be the one bowing right now." She apologized, referring to how she was only a student in the academy.
Meanwhile, Katherine was the Student Council President.
Katherine chuckled.
"There's no need to do that as well. Any friend of Amon is a friend of mine."
"Thank you for taking care of Amon. I know how rude and reckless he can be at times." Katherine thanked Alya.
Amon, who was watching the conversation silently, spoke up.
"Hey, what do you mean rude?"
Instantly, both of them stared at him silently, as if asking him if they seemed to be dumb. "Well..."
Amon started whistling.
"I understand it though, he is rude a lot of times, even among our fri-"
"Hey, fuck you mean rude?" Amon turned, staring incredulously at Alya.
"You, shut." Katherine instantly shut him down.
"But-" Amon stopped when he saw his sister's stare.
From behind Katherine, he saw Alya wink at him while sticking out her tongue.
'You fucker...' He mouthed to her.
Katherine, ignoring him, turned back to Alya with a smile.
"What were you saying again?"
Amon, realizing the coming hell at him, made the zipping mouth gesture to Alya from behind.
'No, No, NO, NOOOOOOO' He mouthed to her.
But Alya ignored him and then for the next 10 minutes, kept voicing complaints about him to Katherine.
After she was done, Katherine gave Amon a kind smile.
But Amon knew it wasn't kind.
It definitely wasn't.
It was the smile that said 'Let's sit down for a chat at night today.'
And he also knew it wasn't a normal sibling-to-sibling chat.
Alya, from behind him gave a middle finger while mouthing again.
'Revenge for that curse.'
"Welp, enjoy guys, I need to maintain the decorum all around." Katherine waved.
Alya smiled and waved back.
"Good luck and take care, Senior Katherine."
"Bye, and call me Katherine next time."
"Wait sis-" Amon tried to stop her but there she went running.
'She forgot to even ask about my match...'
Disappointed, Amon turned to walk.
But then his eyes met Alya's.
The one who was responsible for all of this.
"You bitch." He cursed, clicking his tongue.
Alya neared him, pressing her hand near her ear.
"What was that? I didn't hear you rude guy."
Amon gritted his teeth but then, he suddenly realized an opportunity.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and clenched it.
And immediately, Alya's expression morphed into pain and horror as her ear twisted.
"Oiiii, ow, ow, this is unfair."
"Cry about it bitch."
Unfortunately, he couldn't do it for long as he saw Charlotte, Elizabeth, and the other group coming towards them.
"I'll remember this..." Alya repeated to him while massaging her ear.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Womp womp." He teased while finally joining the group.

As Amon walked alongside the group to eat, he repeated the information he had just gathered. 'Fortunately, all of them won their matches.' Was the first good news.
If any one of them lost, though it would help them gain a spirit to improve, the loss would be much worse.
They wouldn't be able to gain any significant experience in fighting different styles.
Suddenly, he noticed someone staring at him from the side.
"Hmm?" He turned to look and he saw Elizabeth, locking her silver eyes with him.
Staring into them, a familiar memory replaying in his mind.
Those crimson bright red eyes...
"Yeah?" He asked.
"I forgot to ask but..."
'Huh?'
'Was it something important that I missed?'
"Did you win?"
11?11
"Y-Yeah, I did." He replied back and instantly her expression morphed into surprise.
"Oh, that's great."
But Amon wasn't buying her praise.
"You expected me to lose didn't you?"
"That's not it!" She tried to give an excuse.
"Then?"
"Well, I guess I did." She confessed.
"Why? I'm not that weak you know."
Elizabeth shook her head, signaling that it wasn't that.
"No, I know you are strong. Pretty strong in this group in fact. It's just that I thought your
chances were lower against Cleenah Troy." She explained.
"Why is that?" He was confused.
Elizabeth started at him dumbfoundedly.
"Seriously?" she asked.
"Do you know not who Cleenah 'Troy' is?" She emphasized 'Troy'.
""
"..No? Am I supposed to know who randoms are?" He tilted his head in confusion.
At that, the whole group turned to stare at him with surprise.
"Wait, don't tell me you don't know who the Troys are?" Elizabeth asked him in horror.
"No? I don't." He answered back and even Ren spoke in, who was usually the densest guy in
the group.
"Nah dude, you have to be kidding me. You don't know who Troys are?"
Everyone stared at him as if he was dumb.
"No, I seriously don't."
"..." Everyone turned silent before Ren spoke up.
"Well, here is some general knowledge for one, the Troys are..."
Amon listened carefully to him.
He had to listen closely to know if he offended someone important.
"Well, matter of fact, even I don't know who Troys are. Who are they?"
||||
Ren turned to the group and everyone shrugged.
"No idea as well."
"What. The. Fuck?" Amon stared at all of them, who were now laughing at his response.
It was only after Elizabeth cleaned the tears from her eyes that she spoke up. "Hahahaha, well genuinely, the Troys are the second most talented and strongest family in
the 'Earth' family, only beaten by the Sullivans." She told him.
"Oh..." Amon said.
He didn't know that information.
But it made sense considering how strong and proficient Cleenah was with the element.
"She's also high ranked in her academy, so you, a nobody in their eyes, defeating her must
have been an eye opener for them," Charlotte informed him.
Oh...
It was then that Amon realized that.
After these mid-terms...
His days of peace and not being bothered were going to be long gone...
I know this Troy joke and all might look like a word count filler to you, but trust me this is
important for the future.
I don't just randomly type in words.
