DEVIANT

201 Chapter 201: The new Jaric Gale

Jaric Gale Challenges Baron level mutant; Onyx

The notification rang like a bell across the city and people couldn’t help but log into the arena security cams to watch what was going on. While many believed Jaric Gale is not strong enough to face a mutant beast, those from the class who witnessed his strength saw this as an opportunity to see what he can do!

“Why the Onyx? Doesn’t he know it is one of the strongest Baron level mutant beasts? Or possibly he wasn’t informed... Whoever took him to the arena must have ulterior motives” Jalic Gale said with a slight frown.

“This will be a good opportunity to see what he is capable of” One of the ladies said with a seductive smile.

“Yes, but I may need to send one of you to stay with him. We can’t have him die without him getting to reach his full potential” Jalic Gale said with a frown and the two ladies nodded in agreement.

It didn’t matter how strong Alex was in his previous life or his battle experience. If he is unable to live long enough for his true potential to manifest, it will all be a waste. They watched Alex on the screen with intrigued eyes.

What was even more shocking was that he dared to challenge the beast with basic tier revolver gloves. This is the most inferior equipment a revolver can use! It is only slightly different from using only your fists.

.......

Unlike the normal mutant beasts, Alex faced the Onyx was not aggressive or at least, it was a bit rational. While shivering coldly it kept gazing at him with a strange look as if it was trying to ascertain his true strength with its eyes. Alex also stood and focused on his breathing. No matter how much he tried he couldn’t achieve the effects of the second stage of the demon kin technique.

.....

He is yet to reach that level.

“I guess I will have to depend on the little I can do now” Alex said before walking towards the beast casually.

His eyes were calm as he approached and the Onyx frowned at this. It kept gazing at Alex fiercely but for some reason, it couldn’t find an opening. Even with his hands dropped the Onyx could tell this Estos had his guard up at all times.

Bang!

Suddenly the Onyx shot forward with an overwhelming right hook, sending its huge fist flying at Alex. The Sheer brute force and power of the beast were terrifying and many people without a full year would be one-shotted by this attack.

Many were stunned by the use of brute force by the beast. Onyx would rather defeat an enemy by exploiting his weakness and openings! According to their knowledge, it will only result in brute strength if it determines that this is an enemy without openings.

Seeing such a mighty beast have a high evaluation of Jaric Gale was something that shocked the world. And what shocked then more was the simple sidestep that was used to dodge the attack.

Barely!

Bang!

Bang!

At first, people believed he was able to dodge the attacks purely based on luck since he barely dodged them but seeing Jaric Gale repeating the same close dodges all the time made them realize this wasn’t a mistake. He would wait until the final moment when the enemy couldn’t withdraw its attack or stop midway to dodge, leaving the enemy open!

Bang!

Alex’s fist was light lightning, no one could tell when he is about to hit! But even then his punches didn’t seem to be having many effects on the Onyx. In fact, Alex retreated and gazed at his fist, only to see a thin layer of ice on it.

Who would have thought this beast which looks cold would have frost abilities?

Or was this all a ploy to make him lower his guard?

Alex frowned at the thought, this beast was far smarter than the ones on earth and very cunning. Yet, it was only at the Baron level! How dangerous would the other beasts be?

“interesting”. Alex admitted with a smile.

Meanwhile, the Onyx retreated as well. It had to go over its plan once again. The Estos it was planning to overwhelm seems more powerful than he looks!

No, he wasn’t Powerful, he was just skilled. Someone with a battle experience which can only be found amongst higher-level nobles who have experienced countless battles.

The world also thought the same. How did Jaric Gale become so skilled overnight? Has he been playing weak all this while? No, they have seen only been grading his worth based on his possibilities of becoming an energy revolver and nothing else.

It wouldn’t be too shocking to know that the kid focused on polishing his fighting skills since he couldn’t become an energy revolver as soon as the rest. That is the only explanation that can justify what they are seeing now.

“Hahahaha! Bravo! Show me more of what you can do! My son’s death is definitely not a waste! Through you, he will get the fame and recognition he deserves!” Jalic Gale laughed crazily after watching Alex’s performance.

“For you...”

Alex’s voice drew the attention of everyone, snapping them out of their thoughts, including the Onyx.

“For you, I will take this fight a bit seriously” Alex said as his both hands got raised while he assumed the stance of a boxer.

His eyes lit up with power as the markings all over his body lit up as well!

Just as expected by everyone. For someone who became a Baron recently, his raw energy was nowhere near that of the top Baron students but there was something different about him. It wasn’t just about the quantity of the energy but the quality!

“Control...High control!” Someone muttered in shock.

Alex’s aura wasn’t fierce and violent. Instead, it was restrained to a painful level where it clearly gathered around his fists and legs, ignoring every other part of his body. He was able to control his energy to such an expert level, even as a baron!

Impossible!
