Rise My Elementals!

Chapter 22 Getting Four Bodyguards

Author: M_W Cancer

Leo walked towards the alleyway along with the 9 students.

The 9 students were laughing inwardly at how stupid Leo was for wanting to fight with them all alone.

However, the reality was cruel. The moment the 9 students arrived deep in the dark alleyway, they soon found out that Leo has actually vanished from their sight.

Suddenly, 1 of the 9 students received a kick to the face which then sent him stumbling to the wall and made him unconscious immediately. It was then followed by another kick to the student near the former. But this time, that student was long prepared and had successfully blocked Leo's kick. A punch was still unexpectedly received by his face, which was then followed by a head pull and a knee strike right to his face, again.

After watching those 2 classmates of theirs being sent unconscious due to the hard-hit, they received to their head, the third and fourth students didn't wait for Leo's charge anymore as the both of them quickly charged first towards the latter.

Leo just showed a smile while looking at them as he suddenly jumped up to the top of the trash bin behind him. The 3rd and 4th students soon after crashed towards the trash bin with their charge.

The impact of the crash quickly immobilized the two for a bit, so Leo was able to use that chance to grab both of their heads from the top before he quickly hit both of their heads really hard towards each other's head, sending the two unconscious.

There were only five more students remaining. Though they have the numerical advantage, they were not that stupid to really believe that they can actually beat Leo with their numbers.

"Let's attack together! I don't believe that he can handle the five of us working together!" Jake said immediately, trying to raise the morals of his remaining conscious classmate. He was afraid that the 4 students would run away out of fear if he didn't quickly encourage them.

It was really out of Jake's expectation that Leo was actually this strong. If only he knew, then he would have bought more people with him.

The 4 students could only nod despite feeling really unwilling as a reply.

Looking at how Leo fight just a few seconds ago, it was obvious that he was really experienced in fighting. In fact, the 4 students could even see for themselves that the former had experienced fighting a lot of times with numerical disadvantage before.

Actually, the 4 students weren't stupid. But, they were more afraid of Jake and the others who had already become unconscious compare to Leo. the latter wasn't a part of their classroom, after all, hence offending him would be fine. On the other hand, Jake and those four unconscious students were their classmates. If they indeed dared to just run away, they'd become a laughingstock or worst they would be ignored by all of their classmates afterward.

So, despite being unwilling, the 4 students could only grit their teeth and console themselves with this is just a onetime pain!' thought in their minds.

Immediately, the 5 students surrounded Leo. But the latter wasn't fazed at all. He was still wearing his annoying mischievous smile on his face while standing above the trash bin.

"Come, what are you waiting for?" Leo sneered while taunting them with his hand.

Jake was immediately enraged by Leo's taunting. He charged first towards the latter, trying to grab one of the latter's ankle.

At this moment, Jake was hoping to be able to pull Leo from above the trash bin to the ground before quickly beating him up.

Looking at the charging Jake, Leo could already see the former's intention. Actually, it was written all over the former's face.

As soon as Jake arrived, Leo just allowed the former to successfully grabbed his ankle. With a sneer on his face, he suddenly jumped back while one of his ankles was being held by the former, which in turn allowed him to balance in the air.

Jake was also pulled towards the trash bin with Leo's jump.

Suddenly, as quickly as how a wind hits a person's body, Leo then used his other free foot to push the trash bin, making it fall directly towards Jake.

*Bang!

With a loud crash, Jake was immediately crashed to the floor by the trash bin, sending him unconscious. Leo just shook the former's hand, which was holding on to his ankle to get it off. After then, he looked at the remaining 4 students.

"What are you waiting for, come!" Leo taunted again.

"....." The 4 students were really dumbfounded at this moment, that's why they can't reach. Everything from Jake's charge to Jake being crushed by the trash bin was just too fast for them to react. They were even having a hard time believing that their Brother Jake was actually defeated in such an easy way.

"Can we give up..." 1 of the 4 students said while scratching his head in embarrassment? Since even Jake was easily defeated, the same thing would surely happen to them, too.

"Yes, we give up..." The other 3 said while lowering their heads, showing that they already accepted their defeat. Admitting defeat is not running away anyway, they consoled themselves.

Jake and the other 4 students will not be able to find any reason to cause them trouble since admitting that they already lose was not running away, and it was also the only solution they could think of in this situation to avoid from surely getting beaten.

"Ohhh, do you think you could just give up after causing me trouble?" Leo said with a sneer.

"Ah, what do you want us to do then?" The one who proposed the idea of giving up asked immediately.

"Become Cassandra's bodyguard at the room starting today! If anyone causes her trouble, beat them up! Don't worry about the consequences, I'll handle them." Leo said.

Hearing what Leo had said, the four students immediately became excited.

They nodded their heads as they pounded their chest, "You can trust us with Cassandra's protection!"

Becoming Cassandra's bodyguard wasn't a big deal for them. It was actually a deal that they could really benefit from. Becoming close with her was what they were after all along. Not because they were attracted to her, but because they felt that having any sort of relationship with her, even if just a bit of connection, would be able to help their Noble Household in the near future.

They were Nobles from Noble Households after all, though they were a bit unreasonable to Leo a moment ago, it was just because they thought that becoming Jake's friend would also bring benefits to their Noble Household.

Afterall, Jake was from an affluent Noble Household. In fact, his family was so powerful that they are within the top 20 of all the powerful Noble Household of Silver Kingdom.

Jake had proposed to them that if he could get Cassandra, they would also enjoy the benefits, so they agreed without any hesitation. But Leo was her man, which could also bring benefits to them, specifically more benefits.

They were more aware of their own capability. Though they had the affinity to become Mages, that wasn't a sure assurance that they will really become powerful. In fact, there were a lot of Mages in their Noble Household, yet those Mages were just slaves to his family. It wasn't because those Mages were weak, but because they don't have any resources to make them much stronger, and since their family had those resources they needed, hence they could only become their family's slaves.

Moreover, the 4 students have this sort of feeling at this moment that tells them that having any form of relationship with Leo and Cassandra would surely make them able to gain more resources at the Silver Mage Academy. So, they agreed without any hesitation.

Although the 4 students would just become a mere bodyguard, it was surely not for a lifetime like those Mage slaves of their household, right? Even someone blind could see the benefit of Leo's proposal.

"Since you agreed, then come with me." Leo said as he walked back to the Crescent Moon Dining.

Arriving back to the private room inside the Crescent Moon, Cassandra and Alfred immediately became curious as to the reason why Leo had suddenly brought 4 students with him.

Leo returned back to Cassandra's side as he said nonchalantly, "These 4 students would become your bodyguard in your classroom starting tomorrow!"

Cassandra quickly became shocked and amused at the same time after hearing Leo's claim. Shock because the 4 students were actually his classmates and amused because of how did he convince them to become her bodyguard. She was also touched by his concern for her safety. Afterall, she was the slave here, but it seems like he wasn't really treating her like one. He was treating her more like an important person in his life, which really touched her.

At this moment, Alfred felt amazed at Leo's fast response to the safety of the latter's woman. He immediately put it deep in his mind to make preparation to protect his own woman from any harm once he is able to get himself a woman.

After introducing the 4 students, the food finally arrived. Since Leo had only ordered 3 sets of a meal, the other 4 students could only eat later when their own order arrives.

The 4 students didn't mind it though, what's important now is that they had become part of Leo's group.
