Cherub: Level 66
…
Standing at the entrance of the student cafeteria, Wu Yan slowly retracted the mana he poured into Ikaros' body. He looked at Loki who was staring at him. Then, he looked at Ikaros with a reproachful expression.
"Ikaros …"
"Master …" Ikaros exited Sky Queen mode. She lowered her head and a pitiful expression appeared on her beautiful face. She looked like a child who was about to be reprimanded. She slowly walked back to Wu Yan's side.
However, Wu Yan was indeed reproaching Ikaros.
After all, Ikaros didn't even say a word. When Flay's scarf was pulled away by Loki, she rashly rushed out and rammed into the student cafeteria's glass wall.
If it wasn't for Wu Yan's timely reaction and channeling mana into Ikaros' body, Ikaros who has no mana and is equivalent to an ordinary person would've rammed into the glass wall. She would've suffered a lot of injuries by now.
Moreover, even in this state, Ikaros would've still rushed under Cherub's greatsword to protect Rabi.
At that time, Ikaros who is equivalent to an ordinary person would've been seriously injured by Cherub's greatsword.
Wu Yan didn't understand why Ikaros would suddenly rush out and protect Rabi. And to protect the Rabbi, but the action itself was too reckless.
When he thought about what would've happened to Ikaros if he didn't react in time and didn't channel mana into her, Wu Yan felt a lingering fear in his heart. His gaze towards Ikaros became even more reproachful.
"Next time, at least inform me first, okay? … "
He wanted to reprimand Ikaros but when he saw Ikaros lowering her head … She looked so pitiful. Wu Yan's heart softened. As a result, the reproach he intended to say turned into a plea.
This caused Ikaros to be stunned. She lowered her head even more.
"I'm sorry … master …"
Wu Yan extended his hand. He rubbed Ikaros' head. To comfort her. His gaze shot out like an arrow, meeting the sharp eyes of Loki, who had been staring at him all this time.
"Who is that guy? Lei Zhen was also observing Loki from the side.
"She looks just like Flay …"
"Of course. Loki is Flay's younger brother! "Charlotte replied reflexively before looking at Lei Zhen in surprise.
"Don't tell me you don't even know Sword Emperor Loki? … "
"Sword Emperor Loki? Lei Zhen narrowed his eyes as if he remembered something. He looked at Loki.
"So that's how it is. He's one of the 'Meat Thirteen' ranked at the top of the 'night party'. He's a second-year student like us, but he's the 'Burning Flame Sword' who ranks seventh, right? … "
"Fortunately, you're not too ignorant …" Charlotte looked at Loki with a serious expression.
"That's right, he's Loki. So far, he's never been defeated in actual combat exercises. He's known as a strong competitor who can compete with the number one 'Marshal', which is Magnus!"
"An opponent who can compete with Magnus …" Lei Zhen's gaze towards Loki had already changed.
He wasn't shocked by Loki's strength. Instead, it was a natural reaction when he heard the name 'Magnus'.
However, this reaction was not fear toward the strong. Instead, it was anger, hatred, and other similar emotions.
Of course, this emotion only flashed through Lei Zhen's eyes for a moment. In the next second, Lei Zhen returned to his usual arrogant tone.
"That guy called Loki is ranked seventh, and you're ranked sixth, but he's said to be an opponent who can compete with Magnus, but you don't. What's going on? … "
"It's the stupidest thing to do to judge an opponent's strength based on their ranking!" Charlotte said with contempt.
"Although the top 50 of the 'night meeting' are ranked according to their strength, that is still the judgment of the night meeting's executive department based on the strength they saw. Who knows if 'Sword Emperor' Loki is hiding some trump cards in the dark? … "
"If the gauntlet's ranking was based on their strength, you wouldn't be ranked in such a pitiful position …" Charlotte's gaze turned towards Wu Yan.
"As for him, he won't just be ranked fourth …"
Lei Zhen didn't know what to say.
During this time, Wu Yan and Loki stared at each other from afar. They didn't say anything.
However, in the air, a sense of nervousness that made one's heart beat faster unconsciously filled the air.
It was not until a long time later that Loki was the first to break the silence.
"You can't even control your own 'automaton'? 'Scarlet Eyes'! "
"Looks like our 'Red Blaze', the eyes of the legendary Sword Emperor, had some problems as well …" Wu Yan raised an eyebrow and he chuckled.
"Could it be that you couldn't even see that I was transferring magic power to my 'automaton' just now? … "
In other words, Ikaros' attack was ordered by Wu Yan.
Of course, that's not the case, but Wu Yan took it all on himself. Ikaros's indigo eyes were filled with infatuation and Loki's expression darkened.
"Can I assume that you're planning to resist me?" … "
"Resist?" Wu Yan laughed sarcastically.
"The so-called resistance usually refers to the weak who overestimates themselves and challenges the strong, or the inferior who intends to subdue the superior. Your Majesty Sword Emperor, do you think you're stronger than me? Or do you think you're superior? … "
"The way I see it, you're neither strong nor superior. You're just an idiot who thinks you're invincible because of a little achievement!" Loki stared coldly at Wu Yan.
"Defeating Felix makes you so proud that you think you can defeat me? Or do you think I'm weaker than Felix? " … "
"I think you're mistaken …" Wu Yan sneered.
"To me, Felix is just an ant that I can kill with a pinch. He's not even worth mentioning. As for you, even if you're stronger than Felix, you're just a slightly bigger ant …"
As soon as he finished speaking, Loki abruptly raised his head. A burst of mana visible to the naked eye turned into a substantial mist that rose in spirals.
"Although I'm humble and forgiving, there are three kinds of people I can't forgive …"
"Those who order me …"
"Those who resist me …"
"And …" Loki's red eyes flashed with killing intent. His sharp gaze landed on Wu Yan.
"I don't know where you came from, you meddlesome eyesore …"
"No, you're neither humble nor forgiving …" Wu Yan didn't even bat an eyelid at Loki's mist-like magic power. His magic power is even stronger than Loki's, it's like a tidal wave that's exploding out of Wu Yan's body.
"But I have to admit, those guys who jump out of nowhere and casually swing their swords are indeed eyesores …"
Gazes that contained icy coldness and killing intent collided in midair. Mana that was so strong that it did not seem like an ordinary person's charged into the surroundings. An invisible wave spread through the air, causing the air to be filled with a tense atmosphere that could erupt at any moment.
Looking at Wu Yan and Loki who were confronting each other in the distance, Mana continued to rise from their bodies and collided with each other in the space between them, giving rise to dense waves. Flay, Lei Zhen, and Yaye could not help but tremble. Even Charlotte and Sigmund revealed troubled expressions.
These two people were both monsters …
Charlotte, Flay, Yaye, Sigmund, Lei Zhen, and the others who had such thoughts in their hearts did not know that this was the result of Wu Yan hiding his strength.
Competing in Mana? …
Forget about a single Loki, even if there were ten, a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand Lokys, they would still not be a match for Wu Yan alone!
However, it must be admitted that Loki's own Mana was also extremely powerful.
At the very least, in terms of Mana, Charlotte felt that she was no match for Loki …
