David immediately felt a headache creeping up.

 It wasn't that he was afraid to fight, in fact he would be happy to fight her and learn more fighting skills from her. It was just that he didn't come here for a fight.

He came to request her help. Massaging his forehead slightly, David was helpless and was about to retort when he heard Hazel speak to him.

'Just tell her that you will only fight her if she was willing to bet her kill points for it.'

David eyes lit up instantly. He was just wondering what to do to get out of this rough situation, but Hazel surprisingly gave him a solution.

"Alright then." David smiled at Phyllida as he took on his most convenient battle stance.

"Let's fight." He gestured with his hands.

"Great!" Phyllida didn't waste time talking nonsense and immediately revolved her blood to her maximum limit. Suddenly, the opened helmet that wasn't visible because of her long hair, closed up, forming a full complete helmet.

"Let's fight." Her eyes changed in an instant as she turned serious.

"Wait!" she had only taken one step forwards when she heard David speak.

Skidding to a stop, "What's wrong?" she asked, feeling puzzled.

"Don't you think it's a little plain that we battle each other without staking anything?" David asked and he rubbed his non existent beard as though in deep thought.

Phyllida's paused in her action and her displeasure was apparent but all of a sudden, her expression instantly darkened and she immediately put the pieces together.

"And here I was wondering why you would risk coming here, alone, to my territory. It turns out you needed something. So that was reason you came looking for me. To borrow some kill points? Isn't that right?" the closed helmet on Phyllida's face let out a few muffled puffs of air before retracting backwards hidden behind her hair, revealing her pretty face.

David couldn't help but smile awkwardly. He hadn't expected her to figure it out so quickly.

"Alright, you got me. Yes, it's true I need a certain amount of kill points. I just need to borrow enough kill points to place first in this event." He revealed a bitter laugh as he told her his true intentions.

"Are you joking with me? Why do you think I would even help you with that?" Phyllida ridiculed wildly and continued.

"Don't be naive. Even if I'm currently placed in the second position in this event, the rewards I will receive is way beyond your imagination. Now, even if a tiny bit of my mind decided to lend you enough Kill points to rank first, and that is a big if. Do you have any idea by many position I will fall?" she revealed a disdainful look as she glanced at David from Jo's head to his toe.

"What made you think even think I would take that risk? For what reason would I even do that? I don't think you have anything I would want." Phyllida snorted coldly and then, she turned around to leave.

She wasn't doing to waste her time on this fellow who thinks highly of himself.

"To be honest, the last time we fought, I only used 50% of my strength." David said casually. He had decided to use his trump card.

"Oh, you too?" Phyllida was startled and she immediately turned back towards David, her tone obviously held a tinge of excitement.

Upon seeing this, David smiled slyly, his guess had been had been confirmed. She was simply a battle maniac.

But then, when he heard Phyllida's words, his smile froze. He was a little taken aback.

"You mean you also concealed your true strength?" David said in disbelief.

"Of course. You didn't expect me to actually reveal my true strength to you even when you also hid yours right?" she was getting a bit excited.

But then she frowned. "Even still, the fight wouldn't be enough to satisfy me." She shook her head and sighed pitifully.

David frowned as he thought. 'What the hell is wrong with this lady.'

"If you won the fight, my kill point should be enough to boost your rankings to the first place."

"Uhn? That's impossible." Phyllida was stunned and immediately refuted David's words.

No wonder she wasn't moved by his words earlier. It turns out she didn't that David was currently in the fourth place.

"I'm telling you the truth. You can check the current rankings list, I placed fourth in it. " he urged her to check through her interface.

Obviously not believing his words, she opened up her interface and tapped furiously at the rays of light.

After a few seconds, she turned towards David and then the way she looked at him was clearly different from the previous time.

With a suspicious look, she asked. "How did you even make it to the rankings?" she knew how difficult it was to make it to the Kill rankings.

She had made it with her strength and her luck and also with the assistance of the students she had recruited under her wings, submitting their kill points to her, that was how she had easily made it to the second place.

And even those from the first place to the 10th place, reached that position with the help of the students.

It was almost impossible to make it with just the strength of one person. She didn't expect David to even appear in the rankings at all.

"Don't ask me that, everyone has his or her own secrets, and that's mine. So are we doing this or not? " David turned indifferent as he asked in a casual tone.

Her eyes began to radiate with an intense glow as an enormous amount of battle waves began to emanate from her with and hungry look in her eyes. " Haha, of course we are. Now, be careful, let's battle. " The helmet hidden by her hair let out a few mechanical sounds, covering her face.

David secretly sighed in relief. Although there were some weird twist and turns, his plan had worked well.

"You should take your own advise too... Be careful.." David warned.
