Ash came for a straight fist attack. I could tell he had some sort of experience in fighting, he imbued mana and spirit power into his fists. His Level is… most likely thirty? He has a three-star Talent if I am correct. Should be easy enough.
I stopped his fist with my elbow, and then I grabbed his arm in a split of a second twisting it around, and pulling it behind his back.
It started to sound as if it was about to crack.
"Aaagh! W-What the?!" He cried in shock.
I moved much faster than he could discern.
"What's wrong? Can't even land a punch?" I provoked him.
"Shut up!" He roared.
His aura exuded a tremendous amount of power, as his Griffin King Spirit surged, roaring furiously. Its power exuded a tremendous aura of light, as several blades made of holy light were pointed at me.
"You're dead! {Holy Blade Rain}!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
A rain of holy blades fell above me, but I swung my hand as my multiple auras merged together into a thick black and red barrier around me, which I mixed with the power of Infernal Flame Authority.
An enormous shockwave of demonic flames reached everyone around me, burning through their clothes and bodies. Three of them fell in an instant while the rest were heavily wounded, none were prepared to this.
Ash barely managed to protect himself, but his Griffin King immediately died after being exposed to my demon flames, which had been combined with the Gluttony Authority for an absolutely insane combo.
"Aggh… M-My spirit…" He cried, glancing at me with fury and shock. "Hahhh…"
"A-Ash!" The other students rushed towards me, attacking me with their multitude of magic and spirits.
"Off the way." I waved my hand again, releasing a scythe-shaped aura shockwave that blew them away from my surroundings.
They all fell like flies.
"Well, this is getting boring." I sighed. "I was expecting more from Class 2… I guess your end of the year test was easy enough?"
"Hah… You have not seen everything yet…" Ash laughed. "They're all just mobs, I don't even rely on them… You'll know what's real power."
Suddenly, he unleashed the strength of his second spirit, yeah, he was naturally Rank 2.
His second spirit manifested, resembling a young female angel with long silver hair, two pairs of big, white feathered wings, and her eyes covered in black blindfolds.
She held a small silver shield and a thin rapier. And seemed to direct her attention to me in silence, her aura of divine holy light was genuine. Interesting, he has much more potential than I imagined.
"This is my second spirit, {Valkyrie}!" He laughed, smiling cockily at me. "Heh, scared already?
"Not really, but it is indeed impressive." I nodded.
"Valkyrie, slice him up!" Laughed Ash.
The Valkyrie flew directly towards me, pointing her rapier at my head and then unleashing hundred of slashing attacks in a mere second.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"Hahahah!" Ash laughed, as he saw my body being sliced into pieces, and falling into the floor. "Oops, looks like I went a bit too far…"
However, my body pieces turned into blood, which then returned to my body.
When Ash realized I was actually behind him, he snaped.
"Huh? You're surprised? That's merely a Blood Puppet." I yawned. "Anyways…"
"Y-You fucking bastard! Die!"
The Valkyrie flew towards me once more, unleashing beams of light and slashes using her rapier.
"Eleanora, can you clean this mess for me?"
Eleanora emerged in an instant, swinging her spear in less than a second and piercing the Valkyrie's chest, head, arms, and legs with multiple stabbing attacks.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
The Valkyrie gave a rather deafening cry as she disappeared into particles of light.
Eleanora landed in the floor majestically, pointing her spear at Ash, who had fallen into the floor, his face filled with… despair.
I stood up, as I was actually sitting over a small chair I had taken out of my inventory while drinking some tea.
"Anyways, are you done?" I wondered.
"W-What? What is this? How can… I-I am the strongest…" He cried.
"Strongest? Far from it." I said. "I think any member of my original class could beat you by now, they've grown strong enough."
"W-What? No that's…" Ash face was being filled with disbelief.
"Maybe you need to learn a bit more about pain?" I wondered with a smile. "Here, this might refresh you."
I fired a giant fireball made of Demonic Flames over his body.
"AAAAGGGHHH…! GYYAAAAHHH…!"
As he screamed and burned alive, I sipped some more tea.
"Should this be enough?" Eleanora wondered.
"Hmm, wait a bit more." I said.
Ah, and of course, nobody could hear this battle as I had already enclosed the entire area in a Blood World Bubble added with mirage, stealth, and illusion magic.
After three minutes of burning, I quickly healed him back and all his companions, who suddenly woke up in horror.
"Ah! W-Was it a dream?"
"I-I was burning just now…"
"Are you all fine now?" I asked. "How are you feeling?"
All of them suddenly screamed, stepping back as they saw me.
"Come on, let's be friends." I smiled. "I will make sure to make you into strong students. Let's cooperate, Ash?"
Ash looked at me in disbelief, his face had changed his expressions so much he was unrecognizable.
"U-Understood…" He sighed, as he gave me his hand.
Good, at least he had nice survival instincts.
"Let's begin immediately then." I laughed.
"E-Eh?! Uwaaaaggh!" Ash suddenly screamed as I imbued Ki into his body directly.
Opening all his Ki Cores forcefully was sure a painful experience.
"Don't worry, this'll make you much stronger so you're not as pathetic! Hahaha!" I laughed, as I did the same with everybody else in a second.
