BXBX NOVEL Chapter 35 Kevin, Who?
"Yes, I am the only disciple of an SS-RANK Adventurer Mika Amami."
After hearing my answer, only silence prevailed in the training ground for a good minute,
Then soon Bianca spoke out her thoughts with a wry smile to break the silence.
"So she created another monster just like herself, huh!"
I didn\'t respond to that as I got down from the arena and stood next to Kevin and Ziona,
Ziona, who was still in a daze, uttered with a shocked expression on her face,
"So Master decided to take you as her disciple?"
"Master?" I furrowed my eyebrows and questioned her as Mika never accepted Ziona as her disciple,
"Yeah, she may not have acknowledged me as her disciple, but I learned everything about swords from her. So she will always be my Master."
She answered while making a sad face that doesn\'t match her personality and continued,
"But seeing your talent I can\'t complain anymore, because I think I wasn\'t that talented enough to become her disciple"
After hearing her, I was about to reply to her, but Bianca, who was hearing our conversation in a stupor, spoke out loud,
"W-wait, so the rumored wandering adventurer that made you abandon the pride of the beast and choose the sword was none other than Mika?...that Mika Amami?".
Hearing Bianca\'s bewildered voice Ziona replied while nodding,
"Yes, it was Master Mika that made me choose the sword, and she also taught me the basic swordsmanship as well, She\'s my role model, and I am inspired to become just like her in the future.!"
Ziona answered in a resolute voice,
Listening to her I shook my head and muttered to myself in a low voice,
"You shouldn\'t have said that last part in front of Bianca"
Hearing Ziona\'s resolute answer, Bianca didn\'t have anything to say and she just smiled awkwardly.
After a few seconds of silence, Bianca uttered.
"Mika has a good eye for searching for talented people."
Hearing her I nodded my head in agreement.
But soon her gaze turned towards me and she questioned,
"Don\'t tell me the one who guided you in using your element is Helena Parker?"
I nodded my head in confirmation and spoke,
"Yes, Helena was the one that helped me improve my mastery in my electricity element"
Bianca nodded her head in understanding and spoke,
"I thought so, seeing your speed and your control over the element, I had my doubts, but I never thought Mika and Helena would come together and teach you." she paused for a few seconds as if thinking about something, then continued,
"But I thought that they were on bad terms, weren\'t they?" She questioned.
Listening to her, I don\'t know how to answer her. Should I tell her how Mika almost killed Helena, when I first encountered Helena? And how Helena tumbled on the ground while covered in blood all over her?...
I answered after contemplating myself with a small smile."
"Yup, they are best friends and get along very well"
"Are they now?" She said and scrutinized me.
As I, Ziona, and Bianca were conversing between ourselves, we forgot about a certain person who was now standing alone with an awkward look on his face, not knowing what he should do now.
Our conversation continued for a long time as they were curious about how I ended up becoming Mika\'s disciple...
As time passed, we heard a bell ring, indicating the end of class. After hearing the bell we stopped our conversation, but I suddenly thought that we were forgetting something while Ziona and Bianca thought so too.
And after a sudden realization, we all glanced at a certain location. There we saw a red-haired guy standing not so far away from us glancing back at us with an awkward smile.
"...."
"O-Oh what\'s his name again?" Ziona questioned.
Bianca and I answered her in unison while still glancing at him,
"Kevin Cedric"...
Noticing our gazes, Kevin approached us and spoke while still keeping his awkward smile.
"Ahh, T-The class ended"
!?
Listening to him, Bianca spoke while checking her phone with a wry smile,
"Today was just an introduction day. We will start our classes tomorrow."
After saying that, she hurriedly left the training hall, leaving me, Ziona, and Kevin alone.
Seeing her leave, I decided to depart too, but as I was walking out, Ziona came up to me and started a conversation, she seems to be curious about my Electric Aura that I used against her.
We both left together while conversing with each other, ignoring Kevin, who now stood alone on the training ground.
of course, it was unintentional as we had to attend our next class...
***
Seeing me and Ziona walking side by side, everyone was shocked and confused, as it was only yesterday that I beat her unconscious and we didn\'t have a good first impression during the entrance examination as well.
We both ignored their gazes and continued with our conversation. I decided to become Ziona\'a spar partner from now on, upon her request, and also my mastery in skills and techniques is scaling up quite well while sparring than training alone, so it was a good thing for me as well to get a sparring partner. I thought to myself,
Soon we arrived at our class. As soon as we entered the classroom, everyone in the class turned their attention toward us, even Lucas, Ayla, Diana, and Claude were glancing at us. As our spar from tomorrow became quite well known as I got the title of youngest Swordmaster of the generation and its information was all over the internet, and now seeing Ziona\'s happy face they were all confused because they were expecting the opposite reaction from her...
While, Ziona was happy because I became her sparring partner, which would allow her to go all out without controlling her strength. She was a true battle maniac...
I ignored them and sat on the seat that I seated on yesterday. Surprisingly, Ziona followed behind me and sat next to me.....on Livia\'s seat. While Livia still hasn\'t arrived in the class yet from her Advisor training class.
"...."
I suddenly had a bad feeling about this, but then I just let it at that, I thought I may be just overthinking.
As I was pondering to myself, everyone including me heard the opening of the classroom door,
Clank-
Soon we saw a blue-haired student entering the classroom with a big smile on her face as if she was excited about something, but as her gaze turned toward me and Ziona, her smile froze while the temperature in the entire classroom dropped and everyone could feel the cold breeze.
Of course, She was \'Livia Frostine\'...
Her stare then turned towards Ziona who was now sitting next to me on her seat.
She was slowly approaching us, and with every step she took, the temperature of the classroom dropped even more, and the ice started to form in the corners of the classroom.
Seeing her emotionless face and sharp gaze, everyone knew she was infuriated,
*Gulp
Loud gulps could be heard in the classroom as the ranked 2nd on the entrance examination was furious and the pressure she was emitting, was sending chills down their spine, and now it seemed that she was about to face off against someone,
Is it Ares or...Ziona? Everyone had the same thoughts as she was approaching us.
Soon Livia stood in front of Ziona and they both stared at each other for a few seconds. Ziona\'s purple aura clashed with Livia\'s blue Aura and their eyes seems to be blazing, the atmosphere of the classroom became frightening.
Everyone was expecting a fight anytime now, but soon Ziona gave a huge smile to Livia and spoke,
"Oh, it\'s your seat, right? I just had something to discuss with Ares, so I borrowed it."
Livia was still glaring at Ziona without a word, but suddenly Ziona did something beyond everyone\'s expectations.
"Here, you can have it back," she said and got up from her seat and beckoned Livia towards the seat, then glanced at Ares and spoke,
"I will wait for you after the classes are finished"
She said with a beautiful smile which was very different from her usual evil smile, and it was the first time they saw that smile of hers.
Everyone was surprised and was in a daze seeing her smile, and some were contemplating her words which she just spoke and started to misunderstand the whole situation...
"...."
I was startled as well seeing her captivating smile.
How happy is she to have a sparring partner? I thought to myself,
As I was pondering myself, two students weren\'t happy about this situation and their faces grew dark,
Not unexpectedly, it was Livia Frostine and...Kevin Cedric!
