My Triling System

64 Chapter 64: Who is he?

Amid the elves that were surrounding him, Kevin sat quietly while watching the men hail Johnny.

“Johnny! Johnny! Johnny!”

Johnny began advancing toward Kevin, they were still waiting for Matt to give them the order of killing Kevin. When he was in a breathing space with Kevin, he raised his right arm as a signal for the elves to be silent. And after the noise died down, he started talking.

“You call yourself a mouse who scares off an elephant, but unfortunately for you, another elephant had just trampled on you. It’s a surprise how you didn’t die after I hit your head on the ground, it must mean you’re strong yourself. Ordinary elves from the city who have died now.” Johnny said.

This was right. No normal elf or fairy would be able to survive such an attack. It’s either their skull splits into two or they have memory damage. In both ways, they are more like a dead person.

“Now see yourself..” Johnny moved closer to Kevin as he whispered silently into his ears. “You will soon be dead. But before that, I’ll cast a spell on you. Your powers and magics will be given to me in form of Mana and Health points, hahaha”

Kevin’s eyes glistened as he heard Johnny speak. He didn’t know what came over him, rage and anger came over him all of a sudden and he jumped at Johnny.

Grabbing his collar, he yanked him to the ground, punching and hitting his face without stopping. His eyes glowed yellow and he could sense it. He felt a new type of energy surge out from his body and as he raised his hands to attack Johnny, lightning encased his two arms and he drained the life out of Johnny with his lightning shock.

“You’re no match for me,” Kevin said as he stood on Johnny’s dead back and glared in Matt’s direction. “See who’s being trampled upon now. Matt, you’re next. fight me or I’ll kill all of your men including you. I know you’re scared of fighting me because I’m stronger than you. Then admit defeat this instant before I change my mind.”

.....

Matt glanced from afar. He couldn’t believe his eyes. Kevin managed to kill Johnny, the strongest among Graham’s men.

He must do something quickly or he’ll have to fight him no matter what. He knew Graham’s men would be scared to fight Kevin after what they saw him do to Johnny. so he planned to accept defeat and beg for Kevin’s forgiveness. But as he was about to go toward Kevin, he saw something which made him happy and relieved.

Behind Kevin, he could see some of the elves preparing to cast a spell on Kevin. He smiled as he realized that these men weren’t shaken or scared at all. That made him realize that these are Graham’s men who never accept defeat unlike him, the weak Matt who couldn’t face someone like Kevin.

He knew Kevin was strong after he almost killed him with a single blow in the morning. But seeing him use one of the hardest but strong magics of the light creatures made him realize that Kevin could be stronger than he thought. Maybe fighting him individually is a bad idea. How about if the whole group of elves comes together to fight him at once?

‘ Eh eh, There’s no way he’s gonna survive. Combined with the spells they have, Kevin will be utterly destroyed in seconds.’

Matt then decided to boost the morale of the elves.

“Hear me, all ye villainous men of the city of light. This elf named Kevin is trying to hide his weaknesses by fighting us one by one. He’s not strong to fight three of us or he will be defeated. That’s why he wanted me to confront him one on one then if he manages to defeat me, which I doubt, he would escape from you guys and start boasting to everyone that he defeated me.” Matt could see everyone’s gaze was on him.

He was getting nervous. He thought he might have declared that his weakness was Kevin. Because the way his speech sounded was as if he was telling them that Kevin can defeat him if they fight one-on-one with each other. So he decided to go deeper into the motivational speech.

“What I’m saying is that. We don’t know how strong he is... he defeated Johnny which was a surprise to everyone. We don’t know what he’s capable of, so we need to join hands and fight this monster who wants to bring shame to our dignity”

The elves started murmuring among each other which was a good sign to Matt. At least they were not silent the way they were at first. The murmurings meant that they are either against what he was saying or they are reasoning along with what he said.

“Who’s the guy anyway?” One of the men asked.

“I don’t know, boss only told us to help Matt defeat this elf.”

“Apparently, he’s the guy who’s going after the boss’s girl.” Another said.

“Lina?”

“No, a new girl called Lexa.”

“But this guy appears to be so strong. I bet Matt wasn’t able to defeat him and he asked for the boss’s help. That’s why we were here to help him.”

“In that case, since he’s the boss’s girl, let’s take this guy down. We can’t let the boss down.”

“Boss, let’s take him down!” The elves eventually said as they shouted in anger.

‘ it seems like my plan is working. This is faster than I thought. I guess I should be a motivational speaker for the group whenever we have a fight like this.’ Matt grinned.

All this while, Kevin was quiet as he watched and listened to all that Matt and the elves have been muttering and whispering about him. He was calm as he knew he would beat them all. With his lightning and shadow abilities, winning is possible. He wanted them to bring their all and fight him. He wanted to see how strong he had gotten.
