As the battle started, I started to shoot plasma toward her. What surprised me was she dodged it. While her movements were clumsy, she got flustered, seeing that she was almost hit. So I shot another plasma beam at her. Due to her being a second-rank magician, she could definitely dodge my blows.

I could see that she wouldn't be a challenge. So, taking out my sword, I ran towards her. The arrogant girl was flustered seeing me charge in with a sword.

She was humiliated that I wasn't going to take her seriously. Then, seeing that I was running towards her, she shot her magic. The magic that she used looked like some kind of variant of water magic. Her magic liquid was the color green. Was it poison or slime?

I didn't know what it was, but that level of magic wouldn't affect me. I then began to make a plasma armor. My armor had disintegrated its attack.

I was close to having my sword range to reach her, but she had realized the situation. I didn't know why she was so confident when she challenged me.

With my sword in range, I swung my sword towards her. She did anything she could do to block my attack. She dodged the first swing because it wasn't going to work. My sword had reached the ground making a huge banging noise. It was good that the arena we use is strong enough to contain up to rank five magicians.

My opponent, who had dodged my attack, tried to retaliate by sending more of her liquid attack. But, of course, her attack wasn't going to work, I didn't have to worry about it, so I ran in, swinging my sword this time without missing.

The sword that had hit her had taken her down. With that, it was my win. Looking at the challenger, I could see disbelief. Maybe her first duel ended with a landslide. Well, I guess it didn't matter anymore. I don't think I will see her often.

Having finished the battle in mere seconds, I exited the ring, leaving without saying anything to her. With my ranking increased to 1586, I gained 200 credits from beating her.

It was nice having my rank increase, but it was also dull having to wait for me to battle with students that aren't matched to my power or skill.

When I queued for my third match, I was surprised that I got into a battle immediately. I was going to fight a senior this time. She was ranked 1491. I didn't think I would fight someone far from my rank.

The student I would face would be someone from the worst of the second year. Class I are known to be the worst of their school year. While they may not be incompetent since they were accepted into this school, they weren't talented enough to beat anyone in their year.

Arriving at the arena, I met the second-year student I was about to face. To my surprise, she looked extraordinary. She was one of the top-looking beauties. If I do have to say, her aura was different from any other people; I didn't know what it was.

Looking at her again, I wanted to take back my statement. She was already shaking when she saw me. I was a bit disappointed when she looked at me like that. I thought the second year would be a bit competent.

I had heard that the second-year students already had survival training. You would've wondered what they had been doing during their one-year stay at this school.

The senior I was going to fight had seen my disappointment from seeing her. I couldn't make out what face she was trying to make. Well, I guess it really doesn't matter all that much.

As the battle started, we began to fight. We had nothing to say to each other. After this battle, the chances of us interacting were close to zero.

Holding my sword out, I ran towards her. Unfortunately, my opponent was too scared to do anything. I think it would've been better for her to surrender immediately. If I was too frightened to fight a battle like this, I don't think I would be able to live with myself.

The fact that she wasn't the worst in her year meant that the people below her were, in fact, as bad as her.

Slashing my sword at my opponent, I had won. It wasn't satisfying, having to win like this. My mood has been ruined just by facing her. It had left a bad taste to win like this.

"Please drop out of the academy. Someone like you has no worth in an academy like this." Saying these words, I left.

My rank had increased to 1501, and I wasn't in the mood to have another fight. I gained 300 credits by beating my opponent. I guess I will just wait for Olivia and Serena to return. I hope Serena will be back to how she was.

The person who I had just fought had approached me. I had nothing to say to her, but it looked like I wasn't going to have any choice in whether she would talk or not. She seemed a bit different from her nervousness. I was interested in what she had to say.

"Take back what you said." She softly said, which was different from what I was expecting.

"Take what back?" What I said was what I thought was the truth. I wouldn't say those words if she did something.

"Take back what you said earlier." She said again, but this time in a harsher tone.

"I have no reason to take back what I said, having to beat you easily without a fight."

"I said take it back!" She snapped. I looked at her without a change of expression.

"Prove to me that you're worthy for me to say that." I have nothing else to say, knowing this conversation wouldn't go anywhere.

She clenched her fist, knowing that I wouldn't change my mind. Although I had left to say she was interested in speaking at the very least. I initially thought she was just a disappointing person, but to have the courage to say that to me when she lost that badly was pretty entertaining.

I wonder if what I said earlier had changed her. I was interested to see what development she would take. Would she fall? Or would she grow and improve? Only time would tell.
