Chapter 76: Dumb & Dumber
- Monday, June 8, year 3031 -
Amon was the first to arrive at Anbier Restaurant. But, he wasn't the only one in the place, and there was a small line of about ten people outside the restaurant at that time.
As he approached, he caught some attention.
"Who is he?" Someone asked.
Those waiting in line knew each other since they were frequent customers of this restaurant.
"I have no idea, there are a lot of students, so it's hard to get to know them all." A boy spoke.
"No, even if there are so many students, I would recognize him." A girl with light makeup and red lipstick said with a seductive smile.
A girl in a modified uniform, with the gold looking like it was made of precious jewelry, pretended to cough. She had straight brown hair halfway down her back and green eyes.
"Who is he? I'll tell you who he is." She said, "The future father of my children."
Amon heard their conversation as well as what the girl said, and he understood that she was referring to him.
'Her children?' He arched his brow a little before continuing with a neutral expression.
Suddenly, a student used his watch to seek information from Amon.
Amon, who felt like he was being examined, showed a cold look as he stared at a tall, fair-skinned boy with short hair.
"What have you done now?" Amon asked in his cold voice.
Instead of answering, he begins to speak calmly, "Amon Tang, born on a third-rate planet, was accepted by the University today, brought in by Deputy Director Hazael. Genes, lightning, unknown level. Current rating, 1,993,292."
"Oh? Here it shows that he is not the last." Another student commented, "So it means he wasn't the only one who got accepted into the university today."
"Now that you know about me, what are you going to do?" Amon asked with cool indifference. His eyes sharpened, and his instinct said they sought to know his information for a reason, which, most logically, was challenging him for credit, knowing he was a rookie would be an 'easy' target.
Just as predicted, the boy who assessed him first said while smiling friendly, "What do you think? You may not be familiar with the university, and you haven't challenged anyone yet. That is, you are still inexperienced, but even if you want to preserve credits and don't want to bet on the challenge, you must accept one challenge per week. So I'm a good choice, you know? I'm also in my first year at university, I can let you see my information, and we'll only bet 10 credits."
Amon was silent as he listened to the boy speak.
"By the way, my name is Jerrar Xavier, my ranking is 1,992,001." He walks over to Amon and extends his hand to shake his hand.
Amon just stared at Jerrar with his cold eyes without reaching out. He wasn't kind enough to greet such a person who eavesdrops on his information and now challenges him to a duel.
"Hahaha, he despises you Jerrar." The girl who earlier said that Amon was the future father of her children laughed so hard that her stomach hurt.
"Isabela..." The smile on Jerrar's face distorted as he glanced at Isabela but soon turned his attention to Amon. He liked Isabela, and the fact that he was made a clown in front of her made his friendly expression not so friendly anymore...
'Confidence... This boy doesn't just seem to be acting strong, the eyes, the way he looks at me, the coldness that comes out of him... Everything indicates that he is very strong or has never met anyone stronger at his age, and he thinks I'm weak, but I'm also a genius of my planet, and my planet is second rank... But am I really capable of beating him?'
Jerrar was confused. He was confident initially, and everything indicated that he could win easily, but even though he was angry at the time, he didn't want to embarrass himself further in front of his peers and the girl he likes.
"Are you not willing to accept my challenge?" He still didn't get an answer, or rather he didn't even want an answer. Half a second later, before turning around and going back to the queue, he said, "Okay then, I hope I have a chance in the future."
As he said, it is necessary to accept the challenge or challenge someone to a duel every week. Otherwise, it will be chosen at random, and 50% of the student's credits will be automatically wagered. This is the way they keep students always on the alert, as well as always trying to get stronger.
Suddenly, the laughter of four girls was heard.
Heading towards the restaurant, they heard someone say.
"I challenge you, Amon."
'Has anyone challenged Amon?' Ariel covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes filled with searching.
"Challenging Amon?" Barbara looked in the direction of the voice that spoke before, and saw a boy with blond hair and dark eyes, wearing a uniform, he had a 'noble' appearance, but the smug expression caused her revulsion.
"There are people who are more unwanted than Monday and are still full of themselves," Julia spoke as she looked at the boy who challenged Amon.
Hearing Julia's words, everyone couldn't help but be speechless.
Seeing that everyone found it funny while laughing at him, anger erupted from the boy.
His hatred was directed at Amon as he pointed at him aggressively, "Who are these sluts? Are they your whores? Forget it, will you accept the challenge, or will you remain silent like before, huh? Or rather, hide behind these sluts who just see a pretty face and want to get into your bed just to use you as a boy toy?"
Amon frowned, his cold eyes emitting more coldness than before. The challenge appeared on his watch, Amon clicked and accepted.
"It would have been okay if you had just challenged me, but..." Amon trailed off. He walks to the location indicated by the holographic map.
"He really accepted!"
The students who were waiting in line were surprised. Darlan's strength was greater than Jerrar's.
"Amon accepted because of me?" Then, seeing the girls' strange look, Julia pretended to cough and added, "I mean, because of us?"
"It seems to be the case." Knowing Amon's character, they saw the change in Amon's expression when the boy cursed them.
