115- The System

Alexander looked at the collapsed Ferris wheel with an amused smile

He is now in his best mood after he managed to reach the second rank

But he did not let this joy intoxicate him, because he had to maintain his ranking

He must kill more to increase his score and get away from Edward

At the same time, he must make sure not to rise to first rank, otherwise he will achieve nothing

He is one step away from his goal. "Hehe, the days of poverty will end..."

While Alexander was overwhelmed with happiness, he suddenly felt a deadly danger approaching him

This feeling of danger was the strongest since he arrived in this world, as if there was a blade on his neck

He quickly dodged the blow that was coming from behind

A blade passed near him and cut all the booths and tents spread around the place in half

Alexander swallowed a mouthful of saliva, if he had not dodged this blow in time he would have been cut down as well

Discomfort began to build within him. This is the second time he has been surreptitiously attacked

Haven't these brats learned that they should fight their enemies directly and straight instead of using these methods?

It seems that there is another child who needs to learn proper manners

Alexander saw a boy with shoulder-length red hair with red eyes standing in front of him

Alexander narrowed his eyes. The list of heroes contained pictures of all the students participating in the test

He did not waste his time saving photos of all the students participating in the test. But he had seen this boy's picture many times during the test

This person is the previous second-rank

Edward Baldwin

Alexander frowned heavily

He did not want to get involved in conflict with powerful figures like Edward, Lily, and Daniel. Because his goal is to collect points to reach second rank and win the promised prize

But he noticed that his enemy's behavior was a little abnormal

Alexander knows this well

Edward had a strong killing intent directed towards him

Why?

Alexander had no dealings with Edward and they do not appear to have met anywhere previously

Then why did he want to kill me so badly?

Alexander felt that Edward was a warrior who had gone through many trials and escaped death several times. His sharp killing intent is evidence of that

Edward did not speak any useless words and rushed towards Alexander with inhuman speed

The sword that Edward possessed was emitting a powerful aura from its blade that was capable of cutting through everything in its path

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

Alexander threw three small balls into the air that exploded, releasing a cloud of smoke that obscured the view

Edward stopped quickly and looked around cautiously

He didn't expect his enemy to have such weapons

A dagger quickly approached Edward's head, but he was able to block it at the last moment

"Kuh…" Edward knew he couldn't keep this up

He may die at any moment if he does not see his enemy and from which direction he is being attacked

Edward whispered in a low voice, and a giant hammer appeared in front of him. He grabbed it and waved it forcefully, causing a strong air current that removed the smoke from the place.

Alexander looked at the hammer in Edward's hand in amazement

"..." Where the hell was he hiding this huge thing?

Edward threw the hammer aside and attacked Alexander

Alexander dodged all of Edward's attacks and threw two smoke bombs into the air

But Edward was able to cut them off before they exploded

Alexander grabbed two daggers in his hands and clashed with Edward without hesitation

Edward was surprised by his enemy's ability to block his attacks with such skill

He had never faced anyone his age with combat skills close to his before

"This is the end..." Edward covered his blade with aura energy, making it red, and struck Alexander, who tried to block the attack using his daggers.

But the blow was very strong and threw Alexander back tens of meters, causing him to crash into one of the tents.

"Cough..." Alexander emerged from the wreckage and looked at his broken daggers

He threw the daggers away and threw two small balls at Edward

Edward sharpened his eyes and rushed to cut off the smoke bombs

Edward was able to cut the first ball without a problem, but as soon as his blade touched the second ball, a huge explosion occurred

Boom!

"Hahaha, to hell..." Alexander laughed as he looked at the fireball resulting from the explosion

Alexander took advantage of the fact that Edward did not know his arsenal

All Edward knows is that Alexander has smoke bombs. This did not pose a threat to Edward because he could easily cut off these smoke bombs

But what Edward did not know was that among the balls that Alexander threw at him this time were bombs that would explode if they were damaged.

Edward went into the trap that would lead to his death

Alexander's smile froze when he saw a shadow walking from the flames towards him. "You have to be kidding me..."

Edward was walking towards Alexander with steady steps, despite his armor, which had suffered great damage, and the many burns he had suffered.

A drop of sweat ran down Alexander's forehead

He's supposed to be facing a 15-year-old student, not the terminator

Alexander took a deep breath, straightened his posture, and looked at Edward seriously

Edward stopped walking because he knew Alexander was up to something

"I didn't want us to get to this point, but you forced me…" There was a difficult look on Alexander's face

Edward tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword

It seemed that his enemy was about to launch his final attack

Alexander was the most dangerous and malicious enemy he faced, and he possessed amazing fighting skills. It was clear that Edward was more powerful in level, but Alexander was able to compensate for this deficiency with his combat experience

This is something Edward was well aware of

That's why he should never underestimate his enemy's final attack

Alexander threw dozens of smoke bombs into the air

Edward's eyes widened

The number of smoke bombs was large, and he would not be able to cut them all off, no matter how fast he was

Dozens of smoke bombs exploded, covering the entire amusement park in a layer of smoke

Edward took out his hammer and swung it quickly, but the amount of smoke was too large, so he had to do this several times to make the fog disappear.

He was making sure to maintain his focus on his surroundings in case Alexander decided to attack him suddenly

But the strange thing is that he was not attacked

Once the smoke cleared, Edward checked his surroundings, but Alexander was nowhere to be seen

"It's no use..." Edward shook his head

Looking at Alexander's style it was clear that he was definitely hiding in one of the booths or tents waiting for Edward to lower his guard and then attack him. For this reason, Alexander did not attack him when he was clearing the fog with complete caution, because he wanted to make Edward feel safe and thus his defense would be open.

Edward walked to the nearest booth and smashed it with the hammer in one fell swoop

There is only one way to make the rat come out and that is to destroy his hideout

He will destroy everything there until he finds Alexander

after ten minutes

"...." Edward looked at the destroyed amusement park

There was nothing left intact for Alexander to hide under, and yet he did not find him

"..." Is escape his last move?

Edward sighed and gave up

He wasted a lot of time here and Alexander certainly took advantage of this to escape as far away as possible

" system..." Edward spoke in a cold voice

A system window appeared in front of Edward

He looked with bleary eyes at the mission the system offered

Kill Alexander Ford
