The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat! - Chapter 225

Chapter 225: You’re free to choose whatever competition you want Chapter 225: You’re free to choose whatever competition you want “Quick question,” Alice changed her attitude all of a sudden.

Since he had stopped releasing his aura to suffocate Damian, she wanted to be thorough.

“You said you beat everyone in this class, right?

That’s why you’re considered the strongest.” “Yes, I did.” Lance answered.

He didn’t know why but he was suddenly feeling uneasy by the way she was asking him questions like nothing had happened between them, when just a moment ago, she was attacking him with her bloodlust.

“How did you do it then?” She asked further.

“What did you guys do to determine who’s the strongest?” Lance went silent.

Was this a trap?

He was very quick to react but in this case, he could not tell if he was falling into a trap by answering her question.

“Answer me,” Alice’s voice went deep in fury, her eyes blazing angrily, and he rushed to answer, “The new students get to pick whatever they feel is their strong suit.” He said, and Alice nodded.

He crossed the line when he attacked Damian.

Sweet adorable Damian who didn’t even do anything.

She was pissed now.

“I see.” Alice said and got up, facing him with a straight face.

“You intimidated my friend with your measly aura, spoke like you were a big shot, and made me stand up from my chair.

I guess three strikes means it’s my turn, right?” “W-what do you mean?” Lance asked, taking a step back.

He hated to admit it but she gave him the chills.

His spine shivered in fear and his bones were shaking in his flesh.

Ah, this was fear, wasn’t it?

From the corner of his eye, he glanced around to see if anyone else was experiencing what he was experiencing but they were all okay.

He was the only one feeling the fear that she was letting out.

He was her target.

“Wait, what are you planning to do?” Lance asked and Alice scoffed.

“Me?

I’m not going to do anything.” She sat back down on her chair and crossed her legs.

“The one you’ll be dealing with is this guy.” She pointed at Leo behind her.

“If you can get past him then I’ll be more than glad to take you on.

And oh,” her lips curled up as if mocking him.

“You’re free to choose whatever competition you want and pray that you get out of it without any broken bones because if I were him,” her eyes brimmed sinisterly.

“I wouldn’t go easy on you.” Awakeneds who decided they wanted to at least finish their high school were supported by the agency and the government.

They were students with a lot of privileges since they would be the future of the human race, and thus, they grew proud and looked down on others.

At this point, Alice was more than annoyed that a student who was still wet behind the ears dared to challenge her, who had gone into different gates and killed countless monsters.

She would like to teach them a lesson by themselves and show them that life wasn’t all about being powerful and having connections but…

From one point of view, she realized that they were ‘just’ kids.

And because of that, they knew nothing and had the right to stay oblivious…

At least, for now.

So if they wanted to galavant with the little knowledge monsters they knew and live with their shoulders high while acting as the kings and queens of high school, then she wouldn’t stop them.

They were free to live however they wanted.

But…

If they took it too far and tried to hurt someone close to her just to show off their so-called ‘power’ then she would definitely not sit tight and watch.

They decided on arm wrestling, and even if Lance felt it was an insult to him that they were looking down on him, when faced with the pressure from Alice he felt it might’ve been a good thing that he was given the chance to pick what they would do.

He was that confident in his arm strength.

His confidence from when he approached them had lowered a bit, but he was still confident that he wouldn’t lose so he kept his head up high and waited for Alice to eat her words once she pushed Leo’s hand down the desk.

‘Let’s see how powerful you are.

Once I’m done with this guy, I’m going to test you out myself.

How dare you be so rude and bold in my presence?’ He thought, his glares directly piercing toward Alice.

But the unbothered expression on Alice’s face as she conversed with Damian told him he might be getting way over his head with his confidence even if it was just a little bit.

He was rational so he could tell that something was not right.

Why would she be so calm at a time like this?

“Are you ready?” Leo asked and Lance tore his gaze from Alice towards Leo.

Leo looked calm and indifferent.

He realized Alice would drag him into this since he had pulled that stint earlier but what was with that plan she came up with?

How could she tell him to…?

Sigh.

She just wanted to humiliate him, right?

He was a constellation, the one who programmed the system that these bratty teens were using to boast around.

How could he be reduced to this and asked to sabotage his own match?

“So, I know he’s going to be okay but…” Damian said, eyeing the corner but Alice held his face and turned it to face her.

“Ignore them.” She said.

“Ah, I don’t want to take on that stupid and childish title, but I will not forgive that bastard for clogging your airways and making it hard for you to breathe with his stupid aura.

I’ll have my revenge.” At that point, Damian felt touched.

It was like an arrow of love had been shot through his heart.

Even if Alice spoke hatefully about others, in his eyes, she was so radiant and kind.

The entire class wanted to see for themselves what would come out of this arm wrestling match, so they paid keen attention.

“Are we ready?” The one acting as a referee asked, sweat dripping down the corner of his face as he felt anxious for some reason.

“Yeah, call it.” Lance answered.

“So, they’ll be five rounds.

The first person to get three wins will be the winner.” He explained but Leo couldn’t care less.

He was just going to accept his ‘punishment’ and stick to the plan.

“Alright ready, go.” *Bam!* Leo’s hand was on the desk in no second.

The entire glass gazed in awe.

It took little to no effort for Lance to win Leo in the first round.

‘Wait, that didn’t feel right.’ He thought.

‘After all that talk, it was way too easy.

He can’t be that weak, can he?

Or…

Is he a mage type awakened?’ Lance raised his head, trying to figure out why he won so easily, looked up at Leo, and saw the same unbothered expression on his face.

The same one Alice had when she looked down on him and gazed with bloodlust.

But this guy was free of bloodlust.

He just…

Looked down on him.
