Chapter 184
Sleepy~
. . .
\"Start!\"
The headmistress's words resounded in the arena .
But Alan and I remained quiet .
Every student and teacher in the stands turned serious . Of all the fights until now, this was perhaps the most important .
I was facing my brother, the crown prince . It was the crown prince versus the fourth prince of the empire .
It was not a secret in the empire that our relationship was not good . On the contrary, many people suspected that the crown prince was related to the assassination I suffered a month ago .
Besides, I could be considered as the only person in the empire that could threaten the crown prince's throne . Although Bryan was the second prince, he was a famous good-for-nothing, and Dina and Lena were women .
I, on the other hand, was considered a genius . Although my speed of cultivation was considered a bit slower than Alan's, it was well-known that my battle prowess was one or two layers higher than my cultivation level, and my sword arts had reached the pinnacle .
Add the existence of a mysterious teacher to that, and nobody would believe me if I say I'm not interested in the throne .
Well, in truth, I'm not interested . Not in the slightest .
So, now that Alan and I were facing each other in a duel, many people were expectant to the result of the battle .
Looking at it in another way, if I win this fight perhaps some nobles would support me instead of my brother in exchange for some promises .
And even if I lose, I'm four years younger than Alan . Nobody will find anything wrong with it .
Alan also knew it . He knew he could not afford to lose this fight against me . Moreover, he must win easily and defeat Dina in the next fight . Only that way he could reaffirm his right to the throne .
That was the reason he resorted to threatening me just now . No matter what, he can't lose, he MUST not lose .
However, I don't like being threatened .
Seeing that Alan did not have the intention to make the first move, I decided to open my mouth .
\"Brother, you probably don't know me too well . So let me tell you a bit about me . \"
My voice was very soft, but strangely, all the people around us could hear it clearly .
\"I don't like being threatened . \"
When my words left my mouth, the entire arena was in an uproar .
Alan's face distorted . \"Claus, what crap are you talking about!?\"
\"Do you think that just by threatening me I will concede this fight?\" I continued calmly so all the people in the arena could hear . \"I can't believe you have so little confidence in yourself that you have to resort to dirty tricks to guarantee your victory . \"
Alan paled . He could see the faces of surprise and understanding in the students and teachers . Some of them were even looking at him in disdain .
\"Silence! Do you think your lies will be of use!? I don't need your cooperation if I want to defeat you!\"
\"Truly?\" I smirked .
Then, I raised my sword .
All the mana in the surroundings rushed towards me . For an instant, my sword seemed like a black hole that sucked everything inside, even light .
The sight was beautiful and incredible . Even the people in the stands could feel the power inside my sword .
Although the mana I used was still in the fifth-layer, the power of this technique had surpassed the fifth layer completely . Even a seventh-layer technique could not cause such pressure .
All the people observing the fight gulped . Fear, dread, and admiration surged in their hearts .
To be honest, I don't like flashy moves, but I must use one this time .
\"Then, Brother, let's decided this duel with one attack . Bah, I disdain using more than one attack to defeat someone like you . Come, brother, if you manage to endure this attack of mine, I will admit my defeat . \"
Alan paled .
He could feel the terrifying power behind this sword . For an instant, his heart was filled with despair .
