Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

Chapter 380 A Close Win

380 A Close Win

The Referee, along with the instructors who were on the other side of the stage, were a bit surprised by Asher's movement.

Fighting higher-ranking monsters becomes difficult because they naturally instill fear in their opponents.

For the first-year students, fighting monsters was a challenging task as it was hard to maintain a calm mind in front of the bloodlust that came out of the monsters naturally.

But Asher's movement showed no such hesitation.

Crank!

Two more monsters came out of the cage.

Similar to the monsters that Asher killed just now, they also resembled a beast-like monster with black skin and three tails with green eyes.

Their mouth especially was filled with poisonous saliva, and even a single bit was enough to make a D Rank Hunter unable to move.

These monsters were found in Dungeons that had a poisonous environment, and their bodies were very resistant to heat.

The next two monsters growled at Asher as they wanted to devour him.

They moved in a similar way, but Asher took two steps back as he allowed them to come in his range.

Unlike fighting a person who had intelligence and could respond to your attacks, these monsters only wanted to devour him.

So, it was much easier to lure them in.

Asher's sword easily cut through their bodies as it sliced the monsters, making them scream in agony.

Swinging his sword down, he cut down the head of the monster while splitting the other one that had pounced on him in half.

"He kills them so easily," Venessa muttered in disbelief.

She had seen Asher kill C Rank Monsters when they were participating in the Mid Term Examination, but at that time, they were working as a team.

So even if something went wrong, they could cover him, but right now, he was fighting those monsters alone.

Lucas, on the other hand, was surprised to see Asher come at the last moment, but he and Livia were carefully watching Asher.

Lucas was looking up to Asher, but Livia was also impressed by Asher's swordsmanship.

For them, Asher was simply too fast to watch, but they saw one monster fall after another.

'I can also do this when I become stronger?' Livia questioned herself.

Even though Nathan had taught her many things for Livia, who had lived most of her life on a bed staring at the ceiling of their broken old apartment, it was a completely new world for her.

If someone saw such young children looking at Asher killing monsters ruthlessly, they would have been shocked seeing how unbothered Lucas and Livia were watching all that.

"We gained 80 points already?" Venessa said, looking at the scoreboard.

Each C Rank Monster gave around 20 points, and suddenly, they had moved up to ninth place by overtaking the team above them.

"But we are only at 720 points," Venessa knew it would be hard to do anything at this point.

But their points kept increasing as they killed one monster after another.

In a few minutes, there were 17 monsters that were dead on the stage, and the 18th one died as Asher pulled out his sword from its head.

"Had he reached the advanced mastery already?" One of the Professors questioned.

"Seems like it," Another Professor said while observing Asher's movement.

If they knew that this was far from advanced mastery of the sword art Asher possessed, they would have been shocked beyond belief.

"He is pushing himself too much. He would only get more tired now," Professor Terrence said, looking at Asher.

Elsa thought that it was because he had just come out of the Sequence Training he was doing, but it was simply because he was fighting B Rank Monsters constantly in the dungeon.

All those monsters were strong enough to require his full attention and strength to kill them.

After 7 minutes, Amelia looked at the 20 monster corpses around them with a few injuries on her shoulder, but Damian was even worse.

He had tanked almost all the D Rank Monsters for both the mages in his team.

"My bad, I missed the timing on my spells," Lishia apologized as she looked at Damian.

"Ah, it's fine," Damian said as he rested his body on the shield.

"I want to check the score," Damian said as they looked at the exit.

Amelia's eyes were also lit up, as she wanted to see the scoreboard as well.

They walked out as the instructor activated the runes on the stage to teleport the corpses to another location.

As soon as they came out, their eyes went towards the big screen above them, which showed what team was in the lead.

Lishia's eyes went wide as she saw that they were not first.

"How many monsters did they even kill?" Damian muttered.

Both the first and second teams had the same score.

Amelia was shocked as well, as their total score was 1380, and she remembered that the top team from Class 1 was around 640 points.

"No way they could have killed 74 D Rank Monsters in just 10 minutes," Damian said out loud.

He knew that Asher was strong, but killing around 7-8 D Rank Monsters each minute was simply insane.

"He didn't kill D Rank Monsters," The voice of a middle-aged man took their attention as all three of them turned and saw a familiar figure.

"Professor Terrence!" Damian said out loud.

"First of all, good job. It was a very good performance," He congratulated them first.

"Ah, thanks," Damian replied.

"But Professor, what were you saying before that?" Damian asked.

"Asher Greville fought C Rank Monsters instead of D Rank," Professor Terrence said as he looked at their surprised faces.

"The three of them fought around that many C Rank monsters?" Lishia spoke out.

She rarely spoke out like that, but the situation right now confused her.

"No, only he went inside from his team," Professor Terrence said, but he knew why all three of them were reacting like that.

Even Damian and Amelia were surprised, so it was obvious why others were shocked.

On the other side of the Arena, Elsa was looking at Asher, who was sitting on his bench, breathing heavily.

"You pushed yourself too much, but thanks to you, we had secured a first place even though it was a draw," Elsa said with a smile on her face.

Breathing heavily, Asher glanced at Elsa and nodded his head.

He had used a lot of his mana today to use the artifact himself and fight monsters for almost half a day continuously.

"The result will be announced soon," Elsa said as she took out a potion from her storage ring.

"Drink this. You will feel better," She said as Asher took the potion from her hand.

It couldn't recover his mana, but it could help him recover some energy.

"I will go back now," Asher said as Elsa was confused.

"You don't want to attend the winning ceremony?" Elsa asked.

"Yeah," Asher replied as he stood up.

"Somebody has to represent our class. Well, we have two more people," Elsa looked at Alyssa and Venessa.

Venessa wasn't listening as she was still stunned by seeing Asher kill 37 C- Rank Monsters.

Even though they were one of the weaker C Rank Monsters, it didn't change the fact that a single C Rank Hunter had done this.

As Venessa was stunned, she suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder, making her flinch.

"What? Oh, Professor Elsa," Venessa said as she looked at Elsa.

"Well, I need you to go and attend the Winner's Ceremony," Elsa told Venessa, who looked to her side.

"Where did they go?" Venessa pointed at the seat.

"Oh, you didn't listen. Both of them went back," Elsa said with a smile on her face.

"Eh?" Venessa was confused.

"I will not hear any excuses from you. Alyssa had a good reason, and I couldn't stop the person who won us the Tournament, right?" Elsa said as she grabbed Venessa's shoulders.

10 Minutes later,

Venessa was standing awkwardly on the stage with Damian, Amelia and Lishia, taking the trophy that was meant for the team that won this tournament.

"Hey, where-" Damian spoke out.

"DON'T ASK ME," Venessa said immediately as she felt embarrassed as everyone was looking at her with weird looks on their faces.

Most of them were students from the other academies, and they were confused about how a team won in the last 10 minutes.

"I think your student is feeling embarrassed," Dahlia told Elsa, who was smiling while looking at the stage.

"She will be fine," Elsa said while ignoring Venessa's eyes that were asking for help.
