Chapter 275 275 - Taunting

"Well you can try, maybe your daddy will help you," Aiden replied with a big smile as he knew that this girl was clearly dependent on her family and that she had probably never worked for anything in her life.

Those types of people were the ones which Aiden despised the most, those who were spoon-fed literally everything in their life, he had deep hatred toward them.

Was it jealousy?

He wasn't sure because to be completely honest, sometimes he did feel somewhat of those who were privileged.

Because when he compared their lives with his, the difference was so apparent that it made him a little depressed.

He imagined how his life could have been if he hadn't gone through anything and been given anything.

When he reached that point of imagining what his life would have been like he realized that he wouldn't be the same person, he wouldn't even resemble himself.

After all, his training and his past had dictated the person that he was today and it was completely normal.

All of his actions were dependent on his past because they made him the man that he is today.

A cruel man who cares about those close to him and despises those who oppose him, that was how his past life had forged Aiden.

Anna, who heard Aiden mock her so openly, got all red as she replied on the moment, "I got an idea why don't we spar against one another, we will see who's the best that way."

She had said it out of spite, not thinking it through, however, even when she processed what she had just said there was not a single doubt in her mind that she would be losing.

"Lady Sophia, can we?" Anna asked as she turned toward Sophia who was obviously paying attention to the conversation between Anna and Aiden, interested in how Aiden would be acting under pressure.

And from what she had heard, this young man had a lot of potentials, there was no doubt about that part.

'Well, it would be a good fight and it's not like the losing party won't join the Magic Academy,' Sophia thought.

She knew that there was no problem with having a fight like this, in fact, it would be a much better fight than what she had originally planned.

The teachers and the director who will be watching would be pleased that two talented would be fighting against one another.

"Sure, why not? But let's keep that fight as the last one, you know ending this entrance exam in a big way."

Anna who heard this smiled as her idea got approved.

"You will see that I don't need any support to get rid of a weakling like you," she said, having no idea about the strength that Aiden had.

If he were to use his skills as an assassin, then she would have absolutely no chance, however, that wouldn't be fun which is why Aiden would be challenging himself to only use magic spells.

Imagine if he beat her, how humiliating it would be for her if he was to reveal that he had only started learning magic a couple of hours ago.

Imagine if she learned that her years of practice wouldn't be enough to beat the young man who was right in front of her.

One thing was certain, it would be one hell of a funny sight.

***

Some time later, the first sparring had finished and the tension which had been at an all-time high while watching the fight suddenly decreased in a few instances.

However, there was one person who didn't seem extremely happy about the result of this match and it was James who had lost the bet that he had made with Anna.

Anna on the other hand didn't even seem to care that she had won as it literally had no importance for her which was logical.

She had something which was a lot more important on her mind.

She needed to prove to Gold Core that she was better than him.

She didn't have a lot of options, either she would be ridiculed or she would prove that she was stronger than Aiden, however, the latter was impossible.

Aiden would destroy her and if it came to it, he would use his dagger.

Then, a few fights continued with one side losing and one side winning.

After an hour or so, it was finally almost time for Aiden and Anna to face one another, and it seemed that Anna was quite stressed as Aiden could easily through her current state.

She was currently bragging about how easy this fight would be, however, based on her micromovements and her overall behaviour was easily able to see through that.

She was nervous that she would lose and be humiliated.

After all, why would Aiden even feel the slightest amount of pressure?

Even if he lost, people would say that it's normal since he comes from a normal background.

Then, as their fight was about to commence in a few minutes, Lady Sophia had left the room in which every participant was.

When she left, she simply said that she had some things to do and that she would be coming back in a few minutes.

Aiden didn't think too much of it as it probably wasn't anything which was related to him.

However, he was deeply wrong, Lady Sophia's sudden departure was solely because of him, he had been the reason for such a thing.

***

In the observation room of the Arena were multiple individuals all more proud than the other as they all had their chests pumped.

Those people were obviously the teachers of the Magic Academy which were currently waiting for the next sparring to commence.

They were currently discussing the sparrings that they preferred and to be honest, at the moment, there hadn't been anyone who had impressed them.

However, the director of the Academy still hadn't spoken his mind, observing this whole.

'When is that young man going to appear, there's no way that he got eliminated,' The director of the Magic Academy thought.
