"Now scram. You're clearly no match for me," Kye said with an authoritative tone as he began to walk away.
Bulk stayed still for a moment before his brain began functioning again. The fact that he had lost was a shock to him. He didn't expect to lose against an enemy because his ability never failed him. But today wasn't as every other day he had fought. He had lost. And to make matter worse, he had lost against a level 1.
Against an orphan.
Someone who was rejected by society.
A trash.
It was so humiliating that his brain couldn't take the shock and stopped functioning for a moment before rage took over him.
"YOU BA*TARD COME HERE!!!!!" Bulk shouted from the top of his lungs and rushed once again toward Kye who was already a safe distance away. He put his spear in front and was ready to pierce Kye's heart.
But this time, the latter didn't even have to do anything. He didn't have to. Kye had fought with the rules they had agreed upon earlier, so the move Bulk just did anger Kye's friends a lot. And they also all saw that this fight wasn't fair for Kye since he didn't have any ability. Yet against all odds, he won the fight.
And now that Bulk did this, it only shows how inferior he was to Kye.
Kye turned toward Bulk, only to see the space around him being distorted, thus lashing at him from every direction, wind was crushing his bones while the gravity made him hug the ground and made his own weight increase by a lot.
"How dare you try to attack him when he spared you?!" Ven's hair was once again upward due to him using his ability, and his voice was filled with anger.
"Kye, are you alright?" Yugo asked as the space around Bulk distorted even more.
"You're not hurt anywhere, are you?" Lidi added as the wind crushed his bones even more.
"I'm all right guys. But shouldn't you stop what you're doing?" He showed Bulk with his finger. "You're killing him,"
"I won't stop this time, Kye," Ven said with anger. He remembered when he had to stop attacking Bulk because Kye asked him to. But this time he could have died for real. So he was ready to hurt him enough that Bulk would ask him to kill him.
"Ven," Kye said as he walked and stopped right behind him. He then hugged him from behind as if he was trying to calm a beast, or like a little brother trying to calm down his big brother that was angry because someone bullied his little brother. "I don't want you to kill someone for such a thing. So please, stop now and let's hang out, I want to eat something cold" Ven turned around and saw Kye's smile. He was like a ray of big sunshine.
Ven looked down and said, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have talked to you with such a tone," He couldn't even look at Kye in the eyes anymore.
"Don't worry about that. I know it wasn't directed to me," Kye then took Ven by his arm and went away, quickly followed by Yugo and Lidi.
"I should have been the one who did that," Yugo said, a little angry at himself.
"What do you mean?" Kye asked, not understanding what he meant.
"You hugged him," He looked away, ashamed of himself.
"Yes?" Kye still didn't understand for a few seconds. "Wait are you serious?"
"I should have tried to kill him too," Lidi looked away too.
"I mean, do you all want a hug from me?" Kye asked, not expecting any positive answer. Yet they all nodded. However, there was still a problem.
"Don't hug them, Kye," Ven said and smirked at both Yugo and Lidi who now wanted to kick him in the a*s. "I'm the only one who is allowed to receive them."
"But they want a hug too," Kye went to Yugo and then Lidi to hug them. He was smaller than both of them, so it really looked like a little brother hugging his big siblings.
[As a future Angel, you must make those around you happy]
[Three people are full of happiness thanks to you]
[+2 strength]
[+1 stamina]
'What's that now, system?' Kye made an angry face looking at that, making his friends worry that he didn't like hugging them. But he quickly reassured them by saying that he liked hugging them a lot with a big smile. 'Do you think I'm some kind of happiness giver or something?'
Since he didn't get any answer from the system, he just rolled his eyes and checked his status. He was now level 4 thanks to the instant level up, thus increasing his HP pool by 5 like every other level. And since he now had 13 in every stats thanks to his supposed to be a duty as a future Angel, he decided to put the stat point he received with his level up into strength. Being fast was very good, but he also needed to have some strength to really overpower his opponent. At least like this, he would be able to beat an opponent with less attack than he would have needed by just increasing his strength.
'I wonder when I will get a new spell," Kye thought as they went to the restaurant. And Kye finally had enough money to pay for things for himself. Since the beginning, it was always Yugo, Ven, or Lidi who paid for him, and even though they didn't mind, Kye didn't like it. So now that he could pay himself, he was quite happy. 'Holy ray is good, but it's too flashy. It would be good to have something that can help me fight even when I'm not inside the VR. Or maybe a utility spell that could help me in crucial moments.
'My natural healing is good since I'm now a half-angel, but a healing spell would be appreciated a lot. And even if I can't heal myself with it, I can still heal Yugo, Ven, or Lidi when they will need it. So I hope I will get such a spell.'
"Kye, how did you manage to get behind Bulk earlier?" Lidi asked.
"You didn't see what happened?" Yugo asked her.
"Her eyes are too slim to see anything," Ven smirked seeing that, but quickly apologize when he saw Kye sighing to him.
"So yeah, I actually saw what happened. One moment you were in front of him, and the next moment, you were behind him with your sword at his neck. But what I don't understand is how he could lose so easily like this. I'm not saying that you're weak since you won against him, but you just begin to train since a few days ago, whereas I know Bulk for quite some time, and he never lost a spar against someone our age. And even less someone who wasn't even at his level."
"Hmm, well, to be honest, I used the fact that I angered him to my advantage."
"What do you mean?"
"First is the fact that Bulk seemed to be someone extremely easy to anger, so the taunt I said at the beginning already angered him. Then when we fought, he understood that I knew how his ability worked, so his anger just went to another level. And then since he couldn't land a single hit on me, he was just too clouded by anger to think properly, so I just used that to my advantage and bumped into him to destabilize him even further. And at this point, he didn't even see me sneaking behind him.
