My sudden thought didn't work as I had planned. I was going to let both of them stay in bed, but even my little movement had woken them up.
During our nightly activity, Serena used my body fluids to reach the third rank. Is my thick milk that potent for someone to gain so much power?
"Goodmorning?" I didn't even know the time. I greeted both of them as they began to wake up.
Both Serena and Livie were still exhausted from last night. While they were awake, they were still half asleep.
"Livie, could you make me something?" I know it wasn't polite to ask, but I wanted to eat something.
Even though she was tired, she listened to my request. Kissing her, I went to the dining table alone and ate my food.
Since both Livie and Serena were out of commission, I could do whatever I wanted. Figuring out what I wanted, I had a place in mind.
Going to the ranking arena, I searched for someone I could fight. If I remember, our ranking here would also be added to our grade for our test.
Having to leave for Avaris, I have yet to have the chance to raise my rank. Looking at my rank, I was placed at the 1753 spot. My rank had dropped since I was pretty inactive.
With my opponent found, I made my way into the arena where I should fight. My first challenger was someone a few ranks below me.
Locking my eyes on my opponent, I saw that she was surprised to be matched against me. "I didn't know you would be back. I surrender. There isn't a chance I would win."
I pitied the other person. When I returned, the person in front got me as a challenger, not to mention her drive to fight against me was almost nonexistent.
My first fight ended with the opponent forfeiting. I had preferred it that way since I would be able to rank up faster.
After that, another challenger appears. Like before, my opponent was surprised to see me. But the difference between the two was their drive.
"I had always wanted to fight you, Charlie Solaris." The girl who I was matched against said with conviction. She was somewhere at the 1500 rank, much higher than mine.
I nodded, acknowledging her will to fight. While she was much weaker than me, her guts to stand against me weren't something to scoff at.
Beginning to fight, my opponent went in and dashed. My opponent had some magic that allowed her to boost her speed.
Before she could reach me with her speed, I went for the classic AOE attack. As I had mentioned before, speed-type enemies were my biggest weakness. But if I made a move wide enough in this ring, it would be impossible for her to dodge.
Facing my waves of burning hot plasma, my opponent could only try her best to defend against my attack. While I had suppressed my magic to a high second-rank magician, my opponent fell to my attack.
My powers had already far surpassed my peers. I was confident I would win any battle against them if I didn't do something stupid.
After defeating my opponent, I left the arena. My rank has increased substantially because of the level gap in rank that I was in.
In two battles, I had gone from 1753 to 1594. My opponents were now going to be top first-year students or bottom second-year students.
When I reached the third rank, my confidence in fighting the second year had risen. It wasn't that they were weak, but my growth rate was insane, coupled with my magic.
None of the second-year students should have a fourth-rank magician. In terms of the fighting experience, that was the only thing they could beat me in.
Enough of my arrogance. My next match was already decided. This time, it was a second-year student. Her rank was pretty low for her year. Since she was at the 1543 rank, 43 first years had surpassed her.
Looking at my opponent, she did not react to my name. Did she not know or don't have a genuine care for my name? Either way, it was pretty rare for any of these to happen.
My interest in the girl would have been much higher if her ranking on the board had been much higher.
With our battle starting, none of us had spoken. Eyeing one another, my opponent had made the first move.
Summoning some pink petal flowers, she sent them toward me as if they were shards of blades waiting to cut me up.
Given her magic, there wasn't any reason why she was ranked this low. Judging by her strength, it wouldn't be surprising if she was one of the top students of her year.
While I had underestimated her, my advantage in terms of magic was far better than hers. Not only did I have more mana, but I also had a magic advantage. Didn't you know fire beats grass?
The pink petals that approached me were burnt into pieces. Creating an armor of plasma, the magic my opponent made was destroyed.
My opponent had never changed her expression, and once she saw that her attack was useless, there was a change to her calm face.
"Why is your rank so low? With your strength, it could easily become higher?" Out of curiosity, I asked for an answer.
Looking for an answer, nothing had popped out. The person in front of me didn't reply. "Are you mute?"
Seeing nothing had happened, she probably refused to communicate. Since that was the case, I might end this battle now.
Sending a giant beam, my attack sent my opponent flying. My attack had rendered it useless, even with a shield made of petals that she had created.
It was a shame that she wouldn't talk. I wanted to talk to her because I found her a bit interesting. I couldn't help but sigh. Well, not everything will go my way.
