118 Chapter 117: Duel Un-edi

"Will you tell me what we are doing here?" Spike asked with a frown as he looked at Harry. Everyone had gone to the indoor stadium to watch the fight. But, Harry had come back to the empty club room and taken hold of the computer.

Spike couldn't understand what he was doing at all. To him it only seemed that he was moving his hands randomly in the air whilte tapings the buttons.

Harry didn't pay any attention to Spike and continued his search.

'I hope I am wrong..' He muttered inwardly with a dark look on his face as he finally managed to hack into Runeko's smart link.

He for sure knew about one thing.

Runeko actually had a very odd fashion habit. It was something very common on her planet, but it was not true around here. Hence, Nora had once forcefully made her buy clothes of her choice.

So, most of her clothes should be purchased around when she entered the Academy. Meaning that it was within this year.

'I am sorry, but I will invade your privacy for a bit.' Harry apologised, and then went to look into her purchase details for the year.

Soon, his face began to turn dark.

…

On the other side…

'There really are a lot of people..' Leo couldn't help but feel a bit surprised. The stadium was half filled even with the ongoing murder incident. That sure was something to be surprised of.

"All the best, I will be cheering for you." Billy smiled before giving Leo a pat on his back. He then went sideways to find himself a seat in the audience.

Leo looked ahead, and then took a step after stealing his resolve. He was going to try his best. And, that was it.

As soon as people noticed that Leo had arrived, they began to buzz in surprise.

The crowd became excited.

They had been a bit doubtful whether Leo would arrive or not. After all, they had seen this guy change a lot after he lost memory. Hecne, he was lacking trust. But, this didn't seem to be the case here.

"He is here." Ronnied who was sitting in the crowd muttere with a smile. But, his unnecessary commentary was met by rebuked by his own sister, Serina.

"We have eyes, you don't need to describe us."

Rebecca let out a helpless smile looking at the two. There was nothing she could do to stop this pair of siblings. This was how it always has been.

Christina was present in the crowd as well. But, she was sitting in a different place with people from her own class.

"What do you think? Will he win?" One of her friends asked her with a teasing smile. Even though the rumours had started to calm down, her friends still continued to tease her about it.

"Of course he will win, he has the power of love behind him. A maiden's pure heart is praying for his victory." Another person giggled beside her.

Christina's face began to turn dark, and she looked at the two before rebuking them, "Enough! How many times do I have to tell you not to talk nonsense?! The rumours are finally calming down after a long time, and yet you guys are still fooling around."

A person sitting at the back seat looked at Christina and her friends with a frown on his face. He had heard what they were talking about, and he definitely wasn't pleased after hearing that.

He then suddenly turned his head towards a figure walking towards the centre of the stadium. His eyes were clearly filled with hostility as he looked at him. He slowly clenched his fist in anger, "A mere Yellow ranker…even though I am more talented him, is family background all that matters to them.."

He gritted his teeth while looking at Leo, it seemed that he would eat the guy if possible.

…

Leo obviously felt the hostile gaze, but there were just too many. There were more than a few dozen people who were not happy with him. And, probably wanted to beat him as well.

"I thought you weren't going to come." Morpheous looked at Leo, and snorted. He was very confident for his victory today, especially after he broke through the barrier to reach Lv 11 and become an Elite.

At this moment, an Instructor came to supervise the match as the referee.

In normal cases, it wouldn't be so. After all, it was just an unofficial duel between two students.

But, since there had been a lot of hype about it, the Academy was also aware of it. Not to mention, Vanessa had specifically asked for a supervisor to be appointed. She just wanted to make sure that the match was stopped at the right time before any serious harm was caused to any of the students.

The Academy agreed to.

They obviously didn't want anything serious happening to a Hero's son.

The Instructor checked both Leo and Morpehous to see if they had any kind of illegal weapon with them, and then he started the countdown for the fight.

Immediately, a huge screen floated above the stadium. The middle of the screen displayed the timer, while the two sides displayed Leo and Morpehous.

Everyone tightly held their breaths as the timer began to tick.

Leo entered his stance, his arora energy began to flow around his body. He was ready to react at any time.

'Arthur scans him..' He commanded to once again confirm the guy's stats,

[Scanning…]

And within a few seconds, the list of the guy's stats were brought out in Leo's head.

[Showing results…]

Name: [Morpehous Brown]

Lv 11: [Elite]

Green Rank Skill: [Hardening]

Race: [Glorian]

Comprehensive Body Assessment: [E]

[Stats]

Strength: 110

Agility: 105

Stamina: 101

'He is already close to Lv 12..' Leo frowned a bit. But, then shook his head. He wasn't that behind him in terms of stats. To be honest, he would almost be able to double his stats if he activated [Enhance]. And, that would definitely be more than this guy. But, it still wasn't going to make his Yellow colour energy into a cyan one meaning there would be qualitative difference and suppression between them.

"3..2..1.."

"Buzz!!"

The buzzer rang and the match finally commenced.

"Whoosh!"

Morpehous didn't wait for Leo to make a move. It seemed he still hadn't gotten over his rage from the day when he was kicked in the face. He was sure had contorted in anger. He wanted to finish this in one move, and humiliated Leo in one move.

He could see that the guy was a Yellow ranker, and looking at his energy, it didn't seem he had reached the peak as of yet.

'I will end this here..' He clenched his fist, and cyan colour energy revolved around them before his skin began to turn into rock like substance.

"Harden!"

He immediately activated his skill.

"Damn! He wants to end this in one move!" Someone screamed in the crowd, and people didn't appreciate it. They were here to watch some fun, and not a fight which would end in one move.

"Whoosh!"

Morpehous's fist head towards Leo's face, and everyone thought it was over.

But, suddenly Leo moved.

His movement was fast. Fast enough that Morpeohus was caught off guard.

"Bang!"

People only hear a loud impact before they see a figure fly through the air, and crash onto the ground before rolling over.

The entire stadium immediately became silent.

…

"Sh*t!" Harry cursed as he looked at the information on the screen. His suspicions had come true. He could clearly see the list of clothing which was purchased from Runeko's smart link. When he clicked on it one by one, one of them led to the exact same hoodie which that figure was wearing in the recording.

There was no way that there were so many coincidences happening at the same time.

"What happened?" Spike asked, seeing Harry freaking out like that.

"It's bad news. Go and inform Leo that it's Runeko.."

"What are you talking abo-"

Harry didn't wait for him to speak, and was already running towards the Dorm as he messaged Jack and even Leo about it.

He didn't share the details with Spike because he wanted less people to know about Runeko being the murderer. If the incident was known, it would surely affect her opinion in people's minds.

There might even be people looking for revenge against her.

After all, who could understand that feeling better than him?

The feeling of being wrongfully framed..

Harry slowly clenched his fist, 'No, I won't let something like that happen again..'

…

Leo looked at the guy who had crashed a distance away with a frown on his face.

He actually had activated [Enhance] and used that sudden burst in his strength to catch that guy off guard. But, it didn't seem to work.

"Is he down in one blow again?"

As people were discussing about it, Morpehous slowly got with a raging look on his face. He had actually hardened his face at the right moment and defend himself from that blow.

But, the shoe imprint had once again been pasted on his face.

"I will kill you today…" He roared in anger, as his body shook. It seemed he wasn't able t0 bear the humiliation.
