"Stop...I beg you, please. stop-"

*Bam*

Levi smacked Jack's face into the ground. He did it again and again until Jack's nose broke and some of his teeth fell out. His face was now blue cause of the injuries. If Levi went on like this for few more times, then Jack would die.

Before Levi could smack his head Jack's head into the ground again, he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Stop...he might die."

The guy who stopped Levi was Gabriel Dexer, the younger brother of Fiona Dexer. He was also a victim of the bullying and wanted revenge but now this was getting out of hand.

Levi shrugged off his hand and stopped hitting Jack.

"So Jack, tell me why you bullied me?"

Levi said in a cold and chilly voice.

"What did I ever do to you?"

Levi was not angry, he just wanted to find out how to bullying started.

Jack's face turned even paler after that question. He hesitated to answer but if he did not then he could lose his life.

"It was not my plan to bully you. Someone ordered us."

"Who?"

Jack gulped. If he said it then, the person who ordered him would make his life a mess and if he did not the demon in front of him would make him a mess.

'I should tell me now, after all, there is no way this guy can go against her...and once she moves, I will kill you, Levi.'

"It was Lady Eliza who ordered me to do it."

Levi was a bit taken aback and Gabriel was surprised. Everybody knew that Eliza did not like to be near commoners but nobody expected her to drop to this level.

'The game did not mention that Eliza had bullied anyone. Although she had a short fuse towards commoners in the beginning, her personality evolved throughout the game. By the end, she became a person who was willing to stand up for anyone, regardless of their social status. Why did she even bully Gabriel?'

In the game, there was no indication of Gabriel being bullied, especially since he was considered one of the 'ten' heroes. Even when Levi selected Gabriel as a player, there was no reference to any past bullying incidents.

His stats were comparatively weak compared to other heroes but there was a storyline like this.

'Like the god said, someone had tempered the world's flow and destiny.'

"Why did she want to bully me?"

"She did not tell me. All she told was to bully you. That was all she sai-Ahhhh"

As he was speaking, Levi grabbed his fingers and twisted it.

"Don't lie."

" I swear on my life. She did not tell me, she really didn't."

Levi let go of his finger and again asked Jack.

"Did Eliza order you to bully Gabriel as well?"

Jack did not speak. Levi slapped him and took out a knife from his pocket.

"I do not think you are in a position where you do not answer my question. Speak before I gouge your eye out."

*Gulp*

Jack knew Levi was not just threatening and would take his eye out if he did not answer him.

"No, Gabriel was not ordered to be bullied by Lady Eliza. We only bullied him today 'cause he spilt some milk over my shirt when he bumped into me."

Levi looked at Gabriel and he nodded. Jack was telling the truth. Levi then looked at the ceiling and thought about what he should do now.

'If I leave Jack like this, then he will come after me later on. He is a third-rate villain who always follows the usual cliche after all.'

Levi moved his knife closer to Jack's eye. It was so close that if he moved even an inch then the tip of the metal would touch the eye.

"Wait! I said everything. Please let me go now. I will not bully you from now on. Don't do this."

Jack was begging. If he could move his body then he would be properly kneeling.

" Just a few moments ago, you planned to get revenge against me didn't you?"

Jack was taken aback. He couldn't comprehend how Levi was able to read him so well. He had always believed that Levi was at the bottom of the social hierarchy, someone he had under his control. But now he was unsure of how this shift had occurred.

"Levi, if I knew you were hiding your strength and this strong. I would have never touched you. I swear of my life."

Levi on the other hand still had a stoic expression. None of Jack's apology managed to ignite a sense of "pity" within him.

"I understand that you tend to exploit those who are weaker than you and fawn over those who are stronger. If I had not concealed my strength, you would have likely targeted someone else. You seem to derive pleasure from causing pain, crushing people's self-esteem and aspirations without remorse. I have concerns that if I were to leave you alone now, you would simply find another victim to prey upon.."

Levi then moved the knife lightly across Jack's forehead. A small cut was made and Jack pissed his pants again. He cried.

"Please. I swear I will never bully anyone in my entire life. If you want I will leave the academy."

Levi did not stop. He kept moving the knife around his whole face as if he were trying to peel the skin off his face. Once he made a full circle, he moved the knife towards the eye. He was ready to do the unthinkable but Gabriel grabbed his hand.

"Stop your madness."

He snatched the knife out of Levi's hand.

"Do you think you are a messiah who is justifying his actions by bullying a bully?"

Gabriel shouted. He also was angry at Jack but this was going too far.

Levi took a deep breath and looked at Jack and the other bullies. Fear was clear on their face. He had scared them for life.

"Jack! Will you tell about what happened here to anyone?"

Levi asked in a chilly voice.

"No! I will never and these two also will not speak a word about it to anyone."

The other bullies nodded in agreement. They did not want to face this psycho again.

Levi stood up and took his knife back from Gabriel. He then headed to the door and as he was about to open the door, he spoke.

" I don't consider myself a messiah nor do I ever want to be. I am no better than Jack. Thanks for stopping me."

Levi left the room, leaving the four barely standing cause of how tense the atmosphere was.

******

Levi returned to his dorm. He got refreshed and took out the bombs and the mana stone.

'I do not have a place to hide the bombs.'

He opened his drawer and put the bombs and kept some books on top of it. Nobody would search his room but it was better to be safe than sorry.

'This room looks kinda like my apartment back on earth.'

It was a one-room apartment with a small kitchen. The living room and bedroom were the same. The only problem was that the bed was too close to the study table. Otherwise, all of it was fine.

He then took out a blank white piece of paper. He started breaking the mana stone into pieces with the back of a knife.

After that, he separated 0.5 grams of the mana stone powder and rolled it into a piece of paper, blocked one of the openings and made it into a cigarette.

'I feel like a blue meth crackhead right now.'

He searched for a lighter in his kitchen and found a black colour one.

Levi sat on his sofa and lit the mana cigarette. It was his first time smoking so he had no idea how to do it. God only left the recipe and what kind of mana stone to use at different levels.

'What's the worst that can happen?'

He took a big puff of the cigarette and the worst happened. The smoke filled up his lungs. Since the smoke was mana his lungs started stinging.

"Cough!Cough"

He started coughing. Though he did not "feel" pain, he knew he had puffed a bit too much. He then concentrated on the internal structure of his body mainly towards his lungs and tried to distribute the mana to the mana vessels.

'Hmmm...My attributes had the most boost and my charm has increased a bit as well....though my luck is still the same.'

He stood up from his sofa and carried his bow to practise.

After all, he was inside a game whose difficulty had now increased by 1000%
