The Deeds Of An Extremely Arrogant Villain Aristocrat

Chapter 21: The Evil That Looms

It has been several days since I witnessed the hideous nature of Alices brother, Yolande.

However, the events of that day are still vividly etched in my mind.

I will probably never forget it.

To make things worse, I am currently engaged to Alice.

Just the thought that that guy being my brother-in-law is terrifying.

Its a big deal to make me fear for my life.

And I never thought that the day would come when I would feel sorry for Alice.

Thats right, I pity her.

Maybe she would have been a kinder, more decent woman if it werent for that creepy brother of hers.

No. Is it even his fault?

Well, this is nothing to think about.

For now, all I can say is that the man, Yolande, is nauseatingly evil.

However it is also true that what happened that day triggered my interest in pawns.

Up until now, I have only thought and acted to make myself stronger.

I didnt compromise, and it wasnt wrong.

And of course, I have no intention of stopping my pursuit of strength in the future.

However, the range of what one person can do alone is inevitably limited.

I will always need people to be my hands and feet eventually.

tch.

I dont like following Yolande.

And more than that, its really uncomfortable that my rational mind, even if I dont like it, understands the usefulness of this pawn called him.

Then I suddenly remembered.

Although I was not interested at all, it was convenient that one of them would definitely lose.

Kuku, this is just perfect for an experiment.

Come to think of it, it was today.

The battle of ranks between Mia and Lloyd.

For most of the population, combat is far from everyday life.

This is especially true if it is magic warfare.

Therefore, the Aslan Academy of Magics Rank Battle competitions, which are open to the public and open to spectators, are a great source of entertainment for the people of the kingdom.

Although Abel and Lukes rank battle was an exception, originally the rank battle had to be informed to the school first, then it was made public, and then the battle went live.

Therefore, todays battle had already been publicized and many people had gathered at the arena in the school.

Today is the 1st years, right?

Rank-3 girl, Mia, and the rank-4 girl, Lloyd, are going to fight each other. Kuuu, fight between the top! Thatd be hot!

The first-years are not as flashy or fierce in battle as the seniors. So I still like the battles between the experienced 3rd year students the most.

Youre an idiot. Youve already lost half your life. The 1st year is like buds. Why cant you understand that there is tremendous room for their growth? The important thing is not how strong you are, but whether or not you can push through. It doesnt matter if you start out weak. Its when you work hard and grow without giving up that makes you shine. Thats the kind of kids we need to support and cheer for. We have to push them!

You really have changed, man.

No, youre the odd one out.

Steadily, people are gathering in the arena where the preliminary rounds are held.

There were a few empty seats, but within an hour, they were all filled.

All that remains is to wait until the start time.

I cant believe so many people would come

In the midst of all this, Mia was feeling small for the first time in her life.

She was in pain as if someone was grabbing her heart.

Its okay relax

There is no reason to be afraid.

I am the chosen one who manifests the three attributes.

Besides, I have been studying hard since losing to Alice in the entrance exam.

There is no way I can lose.

Mia desperately told herself.

Its time.

yes.

Apparently its already starting.

The bad feelings swirling in her heart have not disappeared.

But she doesnt want to lose.

Thats the one thing she absolutely hates.

So Mia replied emphatically.

To force herself to do it.

Slowly advancing her feet.

She didnt even fight, but a disgusting sweat ran down her spine.

And as soon as she set foot in the venue a thunderous cheer echoed through the air.

The piercing public gaze was overwhelming.

That disturbed her even more.

Her own heartbeat seemed to reach even her ears.

Whats the matter, Kid? Your face is kind of stiff?

Nothing, its not what you think.

In contrast to Mia, Lloyd has a smile to spare.

It also weighed down the lead in her mind.

Keep your distance, both of you.

Mia took another deep breath and slowly walked away.

Inhale and then exhale.

Then she felt a little calmer.

(Dont worry I can do it. I will beat Alice and eventually catch up to Luke. I cant lose in a place like this!)

A fighting spirit burned in her eyes.

I cant lose that thought raged in her mind.

Thats good. Otherwise, it wouldnt be fun!

Lloyd smiled ferociously.

Get started quickly, or so she was told.

You two ready?

They nodded.

Believe in your own victory.

Then lets begin!

Finally, the battle was on.

And then the fierce magic battle that everyone had anticipated never happened.

The ending of their battle was too disappointing.

Mias attributes are Thunder, Chain, and Healing.

An unavoidable magic attack by Thunder.

A physical attack and restraint ability by Chain.

And with the ability to heal wounds with Healing, even a regular magic user is not allowed to fight her fairly.

Yes she was the rightly chosen one.

However, she hesitated during the most important moment because she had so many options to choose from.

This, combined with the immaturity of her mind, slightly delayed the activation of her magic.

In contrast, Lloyds only attribute is flame.

But, with his extraordinary talent, he has maximized his firepower.

His blue flame is different from ordinary flames.

Its pure overwhelming power that burns everything in its way.

That is why Lloyd had no hesitation.

That is why Lloyd was strong.

He simply twisted everything with the blue flame he created with his enormous magical power.

Not that there was no lure, but that was basically all Lloyd had in mind, and he was convinced that this was his strongest tactic.

A blue flame spread across Mias field of vision.

A terrifying flame that reflexively instills fear.

It was almost at the same time that she activated her lightning magic, but she decided that even if she won in terms of speed, she would be vastly inferior in terms of firepower, so she switched.

She immediately activated the magic barrier to prevent it.

However, its power was so great that there was no room for other magic to be activated along with it.

If you divert your attention even slightly from what you are trying to prevent, you will be burned out instantly.

It is because of this fact that she couldnt do anything about the current situation.

Its a dead end.

Hey, hey! Youre done already, Kid!

Kuh, ugh, no way

From there, its just a matter of time.

The end of the show was too stunned.

Aa Aa Aa Aa aaaaaaaaaaa!!!

The last thing Mia felt was the intense pain that burned her whole body, and the last thing she heard was the enthusiastic cheers and thunderous applause.
