An Extra’s POV

’As expected Rey smiled wryly as he activated his [Perfect Divine Appraisal] and stared at the only opponent before him.

What he saw caused a bead of sweat to trickle down the side of his face.

[End Of Information]

’... He’s quite a monster.’

Rey had already seen this Status Window before, but he had to constantly remind himself of whom he was dealing with.

’His Stats aren’t the problem, since he isn’t that difficult of a foe. And, with my [Doppel], his Skills also don’t present much of an issue for me.’ Rey sighed. ’The main issue is how to make the fight convincing.’

No matter how one sliced it, O’jog had monstrous stats for a Dragon.

Especially when he wasn’t even a Lord.

How was an Academy student supposed to defeat someone like that?

’I could have just capitalized on the fact that O’jog was our Instructor, so he was just going easy on us, but I don’t think that will work considering how he’s already reacting.’

He was clearly pissed.

Former Instructor or not, O’jog was intent on dominating him in this fight.

’Well, I guess there’s no other choice.’ He stole a glance at the seats of the Lords and focused on the White Dragon Lord. ’I’ll just have to use the fact that I’m her student to explain away some of my power.’

He would have preferred not to go down this route due to its risks, but since Lucielle started things off already, it was only proper they gave everyone a proper show.

’Plus, this way I can steal some sweet Skills Honestly, I feel like I’ve stagnated for some time now, so this is just perfect!.’ He licked his lips.

"What’s with that smile on your face?"

The sudden voice of his opponent woke Rey up from the thoughts he was engrossed in, forcing him to look at the man’s annoyed face.

"Do you really think, just because your teammate created a window of opportunity for you to strike me… you have a chance to beat me?" O’jog asked with raised brows. "Your conceit truly knows no bounds."

’Hm? Does he think Lucielle was the one responsible for that last strike of mine connecting?’

Rey couldn’t help but think to himself.

In actuality, he had used his [Perfect Expansion] Skill and supplemented it with a suppressed application of his own [Perfect Domain Of The Divine] in order for his attacks to easily pass through the seemingly impenetrable defense mechanism.

’I guess it’s a good thing that he thinks it’s Lucielle’s fault.’ Rey reasoned. ’That way, he’ll have his focus on her, and we can distribute the roles that only I can do myself.’

That would definitely make things less suspicious.

’I’ll have Lucielle stay in the distance, interfering with his abilities when she can, while I deal damage close range. Once he has revealed all of his cards, we’ll suffer defeat and leave the stage as the fifth losers of the Exhibition.’

Rey didn’t really care what happened to the White Dragon Squad after this point because he was going to leave the Continent once he could secure Alicia’s way home, but he reckoned the Squad would rise to Rank 2 in the Empire.

’Whatever the case is, they’ll still lose badly if they choose to attack us, so Brushing those thoughts off his mind, Rey decided to focus on the match for now.

He could already hear and overall sense the fight that was happening right behind him—with the two girls on his team and the two men on O’jog’s team. Due to his constitution, he could also see the fight, and it seemed like both parties were holding out well.

It was too early to judge who would win, though, so he left things at that.

"Two versus one… how interesting."

O’jog’s voice rang out as he looked at Rey, and then glanced behind him to see Lucielle—who was still making her rueful smile.

"You’re not complaining, are you? You are our Instructor, after all." Lucielle beamed with a toothy grin.

Rey couldn’t help but give a slight chuckle as well.

"Hm? Why would I complain? " O’jog said, his smile growing broader by the second. "This just makes it easier to eliminate the both of you at once."

Those were rather confident words, but O’jog had substance to back it up.

’Not only does he have a perfect body thanks to his [Perfect Constitution] Skill, but he has incredible regeneration and other problematic Skills.’

However, none of that mattered to the current Rey and Lucielle matchup.

’You ready?’ He sent a message to his teammate using [Link].

~YUP!~

Her response caused him to smile, and before he knew it, he crouched and took a battle stance—his blade pointed at the man he would soon strike yet again.

"You want to try your petty tricks again? Be my guest!" He raised both hands and grinned.

’He’s pretending to be careless so we approach him with less caution, which he would then turn against us at the critical moment. I’m sure that he’s taking us a lot more seriously and will work at eliminating us—Lucielle first, and then me.’

Unfortunately for him… his plans wouldn’t work.

After all—

~WHOOOSH!~

Rey charged towards O’jog, who was now grinning like a maniac and waiting for him to get close. As this happened, Lucielle activated ’Imaginary Rain’ and sent the swirling blizzard towards O’jog from the other end.

’What?’ His eyes seemed to say.

’He’s clearly surprised that she can cast a Spell while trying to interfere with his powers. By casting the Spell, she has essentially divided her attention and can’t interfere with his own abilities, he will take this as an opportunity to use THAT Skill.’

"[Absolute Magic Disruption]."

The swirling mass of energy began to break apart, clearly showing that the Spell failed.

With an emphatic smile, he raised his hand in Lucielle’s direction, while still preparing for Rey’s incoming attack.

"Pure Burst."

In an instant, he gathered a maelstrom of destructive energy, coalescing everything into a beam of light and fired it at Lucielle.

Meanwhile, Rey was already right in front of him—ready to strike.

’He’ll most likely use his body to absorb any damage I want to render using [Perfect Constitution], while preparing a strong counter.’ Rey smiled internally. ’Too bad all of it will be in vain.’

~ZZZTZZZ!~

In a flash—right at the decisive moment when the beam of light would have hit Lucielle, and Rey was about to touch O’jog—space distorted.

The positions of Lucielle and O’jog got swapped for each other, leaving the girl right in Rey’s grasp, while O’jog right at the front of the beam.

Needless to say… the Grand Admiral wasn’t expecting this.

~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!~
