Volume 8 Chapter 38: There Are No Second Chances

"..." Keith was silent. But his movements said it all!

A spear went flying across Isaac's face! It's much faster than before; this blow was nothing compared to the others. However, that was not the end, as the weapon was swung left! Isaac raised his blade, trying to parry it.

What? The spear didn't go another way but was pushed down, sending Isaac to the ground!

"Get him, Keith!" "Herrick, stop being an idiot!"

"..." Tennol's eyes widened when he saw that. Isaac quickly took a few steps back to stare. Something is off about him. His personality? No, more like his aura. It was sharp.

Yet it was only an instant.

Eh? Did I black out? Keith blinked as he looked around. Why was Isaac standing so far away from him?

He's normal again? Isaac became more and more confused by this child. However, his aura changed. He was going to take it up a notch to deal with him!

The rain of stabs started again! Keith held his spear and charged forward! He wasn't going to go down like this! His shield was gone; his defenses were weak. Rushing forward was his only option.

I could see them. Some of the stabs were perceivable. Some still landed; however, Keith was getting close!

Now! Keith swung his spear down as he jumped forward. However, Isaac understood as he backed off, allowing the spear to land. His sword came down in response.

I'm not done! Keith slammed his feet down and was going to strike again! Issac's eyes widened even further.

"That's enough," Tennol muttered. The demon had stepped in before the blows landed on each side.

"You-"

"Do you think I wouldn't step in with the force you put? The headmaster will hear this," Keith would have more than a broken bone if he didn't step in.

"..." Isaac took a deep breath as he walked away.

Tennol turned to Keith, "You understand what you did was reckless, right?"

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

"I know. I made the wrong call at the last moment," Keith sighed. His fist was aimed at the body. However, Isaac's blade was a step faster than his.

"..." Tennol's eyes widened, "Just go back to your friends."

"Mmhmm," Keith nodded as he wiped the blood from his head. And the moment he walked over to them,

"Keith, are you alright?" Alfia started to check up on him, "Sarah, use your healing magic."

No need to say that as the girl was already chanting her magic. She was prepared to use it.

"Thanks. I feel so much better," The wound on his head felt light.

"Now then, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" Alfia roared as she held his shirt. Now that the guy was healed up, it was time to scream at him left and right!

"What?!"

"You crazy bastard! You fought against the sword saint! Have you gone mad!" Who was he kidding?! This guy was on a warpath that screwed everything over!

"What? I was curious about what a sword saint could do," And that wall was high.

Snap! Something definitely broke.

"Tag me in!" Herrick roared, and Alfia let go.

"I wanted to fight him! It's not fair!"

"..." Ugh!

"..." Carolyn stared at Keith as he was surrounded by everyone. Yet, she could only smile.

...

Isaac was now brought before Cadmus and Sohma. Tennol and Adiun stood on the side as they stared at Isaac. It was quite a tense atmosphere. Neither person was speaking.

"Let me ask you a question, sword saint. Are you challenging us?" Sohma's gaze was sharp. Aidiun and Tennol knew that look; it was a fight.

Isaac continued to look calm as he shrugged, "What are you talking about? I was just testing a student out. He also agreed to it as well."

"He's right; we can't do anything about it since the student himself had said it." Cadmus waved him off. But the moment he had said that,

"!" The entire room went into armageddon! Aidiun and Tennol expected something like this. The person who was affected the most was Isaac. The pressure surrounding his body was incredibly high. It was as if there was a giant mountain crushing him.

"Grr," Isaac gritted his teeth, trying to bear through it. But that was when Cadmus appeared before him. In a second, he had gotten up and appeared before him,

"There are no second chances, do you understand?"

"…Understood." Those eyes. Even with all those words he had said before, his gaze said something entirely different.

Madness and destruction. Not complying meant being obliterated.

The pressure in the room immediately died down. Cadmus grinned, "You may leave now. Also, I want you off my academy as of right now."

"Yes."

Cadmus and the other sighed.

"Those guys really think they could do this?" What were they thinking? This was the academy run by Cadmus. The Philosopher Kingdom had nothing here.

"I'm worried about what they're doing." Them coming here and trying to cause trouble was weird.

"By the way, how is Keith? Is he down?" Sohma turned to Tennol. Losing to the sword saint probably took a hit on him. But when he was talking about it,

"It's the opposite."

"?"

"Actually, he broke Issac's fingers and cracked a rib." Isaac must have gone to a healer to quickly heal his wounds. But it couldn't be hidden from this demon; besides the broken finger, when Keith swung his spear down, he cracked a rib.

"That kid seriously has no fear." Tennol laughed, remembering his words. He was going to beat him. No one in their right mind would say something so absurd.

"This only made him stronger." Isaac tried to demoralize Keith. But what he did only made him even stronger.

"He's always been like that." Cadmus sighed.
