The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 295 - - The Exam’s Finale [ Part 3 ]
Chapter 295 -295 – The Exam’s Finale [ Part 3 ]
Either my words had a big effect on Alvin or he was just too shocked at the level of Anti-Manic armor that I wore as he slipped on the ground.
Taking him by surprise, I ran towards him. Alvin saw me coming and reacted to it but he was late, I was already upon him.
“Bam!”
“Crack!”
A straight punch to the chest as something cracked and he flew back like a bullet. His body hit the wall and got embedded on it like all other people that tasted my punch.
I look at his figure, spread wide on the wall. He looked disheveled as his eyes revolved around lazily and he shook in his place. Then I looked down at his chest.
His family armor, the Anti-Manic one now had a large crack at the place where I had just punched. My smile widened at that, he wasn’t wearing high quality armor, at best it was mid-tier and even then it was only average.
“Arghh… what the hell was that?” Alvin groaned as he tried to get out. The punch he felt now was unlike any other. Alvin was sure that it was Henry’s real strength and not the use of Sigmat or any amplification method.
“So are you ready to give up?”
Alvin heard Henry’s voice and before he could use his lance to shield himself, Henry had arrived before him and was ready to punch. So he closed his eyes and waited for the worst.
Yet, nothing came but a voice.
“Give up.”
Opening he’s eyes, Alvin saw Henry’s fist just inches away from his face, “What?”
…
“Give up, Alvin.” I tell him, “There’s no point in fighting me any longer.”
“No point…?”
“Yes… you’ve already exhausted your mana so you can’t use spells anymore, your Anti-Manic armor can’t protect you from my attacks and you’re not strong enough to compare with my raw strength.”
“You’ll be facing disaster if you still continue to fight.” I smile, “If it was anyone else, I would have pounded them until they were unconscious but you’re different.”
“You tried to defeat me with your individual power and never showed defeat… that’s a good trait. Which is why I’m giving you the chance to accept defeat yourself, instead of me punching it into you.”
“And believe me when I say the alternative is much worse.”
“I believe you.” Alvin said as he tried to get up steadily, “I still feel the tremors from your punch.”
He looked at me for a moment, quiet thoughts wondering in him, “I accept it.”
“I lost.”
“So you’re willingly surrendering?” Falbic suddenly appeared beside us and asked him.
Alvin nodded, “Yeah. Just like he said, no point in fighting a losing battle. Even if I don’t really want to admit defeat… I also don’t see any point in staying at the hospital for months.”
Falbic smiled and congratulated me, “Congratulations kid, you won.”
“I know… mind telling that to everyone else.”
“Oh! Almost forgot my job here.” Falbic smiled and turned before loudly proclaiming, “The fight’s over, people. We have our winner!”
“The Exam’s winner and the one to go Class A is none other than Henry Van Tax!”
“Whoo!” Most of the crowd jumped in their seats.
“Never in the history of our academy has there been someone from Class F that has actually been promoted to Class A.” Falbic announced, “But History is about learning and changing the present… and today we just witnessed another piece of history unwinding.”
“TO HENRY… FOR BEING EVER VICTORIOUS!”
“YEAH!”
“Henry!”
“Tax!”
“Tax!”
“Tax!”
I give a simple wave at their cheers before heading out.
…
“He won… HE WON!” Wilson said and later started cheering as Alex smiled and patted him down.
“Calm down, Wilson.”
“Calm down? What are you talking about? Our friend not only defeated that crazy strong guy but also won the damn Exam… We should be celebrating!”
“Of course we will…” Alex smiled and looked at Alvin. He was happy for his friend’s victory but Alvin’s surrender was what made it extra sweet for him.
…
“Henry! Henry!” Henry!” Samantha called out Henry’s name as her friends looked at her like she was a fangirl.
“Calm down, would you?” Rosie said, “The guy can’t hear you anyway.”
“It doesn’t matter if he can’t. I’m sure my voice will reach with the countless others that are cheering for him, isn’t that right, Elisabeth?”
Elisabeth nodded with a big smile, she was extra happy at Henry’s win. Even though she knew he would win, seeing it made it so much grander for her.
If only she had the courage to go and congratulate him in front…
As Elisabeth had that distant look in her, Rosie secretly looked at her and narrowed her eyes.
…
“Wow! Elivia said with an unbelievable tone, “He really won.”
“Nooo… my money!” Naville screamed as everyone looked at him.
“You bet against him?”
“…yeah.” Naville said quietly.
“How can you do that!” Bethany’s tone thundered down on him as he cowered in fear, “We’re members of the student council, we’re supposed to stop such a behavior, not indulge in it.”
“I- I’m sorry…”
“How much did you bet?” Victor asked, earning a punch from Bethany.
“About 500…”
“Pounds!” Bethany asked in shock as Naville nodded, “It’s confirmed… you are the most idiotic member of our council.”
“Don’t get so angry over it, Bethany.” Ulvoric calmed her down, “It’s just a simple bet, it’s not like he’s going to do it again, right?”
“Yes, yes!” Naville immediately said.
Margaret remained calm on her seat and plainly smiled as she saw Henry leave the arena. He wasn’t arrogant nor was he ignorant to their cheers. He left as coolly as he came.
To her, this moment brightened something inside her.
“Congratulations Elivia.”
“Hm?” Elivia tilted her head in confusion, “Why Ulvoric?”
“Because you’re getting a new addition to your classroom.”
Elivia took a moment to realize as her face soured and she looked down at the arena with a blank face, “Motherfucke-”
…
A few hours later…
“Congrats!” X2
Wilson and Alan said at the same time as I opened the Champaign bottle. Then they both shrugged Xavier, who was quiet.
“Why the hell aren’t you congratulating him?”
“Why should I? I wasn’t the one who won.” Xavier grumbled.
Before they could argue with him, I stop them.
“It’s okay guys. Let him sulk there, it’s not every day you get invited to the party of the guy that defeated the guy you lost to.”
Xavier grumbled again but stayed quiet. The dog was learning.
“If you say so.” Wilson said before smiling wide, “So when will the food arrive?”
After getting out of the arena, I was immediately spotted by journalists for the newspapers. They left me alone after hundreds of questions and finally I invited the guys to my FOOD! restaurant.
Fortunately, the restaurant wasn’t harmed in the explosion in any way.
“Here are your orders, sirs.” A few waiters came with multiple silver plates. There was chicken, beef, crab, fish, caviar, alcohol and a few other things.
“Woah…” They said in unison, “Isn’t that too much for us?”
“Believe me, the food here are muah…” I say kissing my fingers, “It’ll be finished in no time.”
“Well, don’t mind if I do.” Wilson said, already grabbing all kinds of spoons.
…
At another part of the city.
Jennifer laid down in her couch in defeat. She had a large bottle of vodka in her hands as she sighed again.
“Damn… not only did I lost my money but I also lost against him too.”
“That bastard’s never going to let this down.”
