My Triling System

Chapter 61: Matt’s weakness

"You do not have to worry about that Kevin. Your strength and speed have improved compared to before." The A1 system said. "You can easily win unless they form a spell on you. But I'm working on your mutant cells now, have a little bit of patience."

Since Kevin skipped reading about the improvement that has been made to his body, he didn't realize that the state of his body has improved more than before.

< All Stat points have been enhanced by 5 points >

< Strength: 15 >

< Speed: 15 >

< Agility: 15 >

< Stamina: 26 >

He checked his Mana point and saw that it had also increased by 200.

< Mana: 400 >

His two magics were still functional but he would say he hasn't used any of them in a real fight. Perhaps he could use it to fight these guys. He would love to try out shadow magic but he's unsure if he could manipulate the skill so well. The name of the two shadow skills sounds so weird to him and he wondered if it could be used in a fight.

< Shadow Skills: Two (2) >

< Shadow Void: An empty black-pitched place you can stay and hide things in the shadows. The space is infinite and could inhabit a lot of people and things. >

Just as he thought, this skill might not be useful in a fight. The description said he could hide himself and other things inside the void space. It is not something could use to attack and draw blood from his opponent.

"And how does that help when you're about to be slaughtered to.. wait,"

A lightbulb then appeared on Kevin's head. He has been thinking only of attacking his opponent, he never thought of defending their attacks.

If he's in a near-death situation, he could easily hide inside the shadow Void just as the skill had described. He would be unseen by everyone and when he's ready to fight again, he would leave the void and fight them. It was like the lightning Cloak skill, although the shadow Void looks more awesome than it.

"It seems like this skill is not bad after all. If I attack with my lightning magic, I'll be able to defend myself against any attack by hiding inside the Shadow Void." Kevin concluded. A wide smile appeared on his face as he thought of this.

Moving on to the next thing, Kevin checked the second shadow skill he was given.

< Shadow hop skill: Small holes of shadows would pop up at any location the user chooses for it to appear. You could simply teleport around the room once the shadow hop skill has been activated >

This skill also looks great. Kevin was now convinced that the shadow magic was going to be of great help to him.

"Since these guys are not from our school, there's no need to hide the fact that I have two Magics. I can do whatever I wish to them, no one's going to challenge me. The only problem I have now is these four elves from the academy. They mustn't know that I can use two magics or everyone in the school will know. I'll try and shut their mouths with whatever I can." Kevin said as he slowly stood up from the ground to face the elves.

"What do you guys want?" Kevin asked as he looked around the court, locking eyes on every one of his opponents to know the powers they have.

"You already know what we want. I want you to bow down and beg for my forgiveness.. then you'll swear not to talk to Lexa anymore. Otherwise, you will be smashed to the ground by these skilled fighters of mine."

"Skilled fighters you say? Or local gangsters, spending all their time robbing and violating the rules of the City. Are these criminals who you called skilled fighters? What about you? Aren't you strong enough to fight and defeat me alone..." Kevin decided to taunt Matt after learning that his capability was low compared to that of the gangsters in front of him. His combat capability was 12 which means he's not strong enough.

'Perhaps that's why he decided to stop fighting in the morning. He was injured and couldn't take any more attacks from him.' Kevin thought as a wry smile formed on his face. He just found out that Matt's weakness was the fear of being molested as a weak person. So Kevin decided to provoke him more.

"Come on Matt, stop being a little cockroach hiding behind his men. Come and face me in a one-on-one fight. I know you want to fight me so badly, so stop being a baby and fight me elf to the elf. Or are you too scared to face?" Kevin said.

' Heck, this guy is stronger than me and he knows this. He's trying to bring me to shame so he could go scot-free by fighting me alone. No, I won't accept his challenge.'

"Do you think you can just ask me to fight you one-on-one and I'll agree to it? What is this? a VR game match or what."

"Boss, why don't you let me take care of him," Ratten said as he stepped forward. "I don't see any reason why you have to call these men to fight such a weak guy as this when we can take care of it ourselves."

"But Ratten... You don't.." Matt couldn't stop Ratten, it is just a waste of effort if he tries to stop him. Ratten has always been so stubborn and doesn't listen to people. Not even Graham could stop him.

"Hey little guy, before anyone else, you owe me a fight. How about we both have a quick fight."

"Mister, I never owe you a fight, you're the one who wishes to fight me, not me. But since you're here to represent your boss's place, I would be glad to fight with someone as strong and challenging as you." Kevin replied with a smirk.

"Yes that's it, Let's fight. I won't give you a quick death, I'll make a nice and slow one for you!" Ratten yelled.
