Why Should I Stop Being a Villain-Novel

344 End of the Third Day - III

"What is he doing?" Some of the students were confused by Damian's approach.

But the Small Barrier Shard collided with the shield, but some of them managed to damage the shield.

Eva could control the density of her barrier but to create strong ones and manipulate them was difficult.

She didn't had Gravity Magic like Alyssa, so she couldn't move the existing barriers too easily.

Although her barriers were powerful, she needed time to create and manipulate them.

And this was why she was strong against mages, and weaker against weapon users.

Damian who had large wound on his arm, was already away from Eva's field of view.

And the Shield that striked with Eva's powerful barrier shards created spark which took Eva's attention.

Damian used the burst of aura on his feet as a loud sound shifted Eva's vision and she noticed Damian's approach a bit too late.

Eva immediately raised her elbow and multiple barriers appeared to stop Damian's attack. But Damian had used all of his aura in a single strike of his hammer.

The clash of Eva's barrier and Damian's hammer made huge impact on the stage, but despite Eva's efforts, the power behind Damian's attack couldn't be stopped.

"This Bastard!!" Kevin shouted in his room as he saw what happened next.

His weapon connected with Eva's elbow and she was sent off the stage as Medics immediately approached her.

"What an asshole!!"

"No wonder he is friends with Asher Greville,"

Some students that were cheering for Eva didn't liked the way Damian won, but it was a win regardless.

"And the winner is Damian Seymour,"

Listening to this Damian smiled but he immediately noticed people coming towards him.

Medics approached both Damian and Eva, and both had serious wounds.

Damian's whole arm was covered in his blood, while Damian's attack broked Eva's bones.

"He is too reckless!" Verina Seymour spoke as David looked away immediately.

"He fights just like you," Arthur spoke while laughing making David's situation even worse.

"He is just as dumb as father," Nate said making Arthur's laugh even louder.

"You are getting too brave boy," David looked at Nate.

Nate averted his eyes to not anger David anymore.

"Calm down Verina, he will be fine," Sylvie tried to calm Verina down.

The medics gave them both a healing potion, and as both of them could stand they left the stage with the Medics.

But Eva was taken to the Medical Ward, while Damian was getting treated in his room.

In one of the VIP Rooms,

Reece who was looking at the match, wasn't too happy with the result after all his Sister just got defeated.

But the End Year Tournament wasn't a normal competition and such situations happened all the time.

Until the injury wasn't vital and could threaten someone's life, no teachers would stop the match until one side got defeated or surrendered.

"With this we will enter the Final Bracket of the First Year, but the matches will start after the Matches of the Second, Third and Fourth Year End," The Commentator announced.

Kevin on the other hand wasn't happy with the way Damian defeated Eva, and he wanted to against Damian himself.

But today's matches would end before anyone competed with him and Asher.

And only on the Fourth Day's the SemiFinals for all the Years would happen.

Including the Finals of the First and Second Year.

The matches resumed and with deciding matches of other Years started.

"The Winner is Jayden Hargrave," The Commentator announced.

But nobody was excited as it was the Third Match of Jayden that ended with the opponent surrendering.

"It seems nobody wants to fight your Grandson," Alfred commented.

"Well, he is too strong for them," Xarax laughed.

"Or they remember how he fought last year," Osbert added making Xarax frown.

And it was the truth, whoever fought Jayden last year ended with lots of injuries and nobody wanted to have a repeat of what happened last year.

Chances of them winning were zero against Jayden, and it wasn't worth to affect their careers when they were so close to graduating.

Almost all the Top 400 Students of Fourth Years had multiple contracts from different guilds or factions in various Associations.

Only those related to Elite Families, or some other big power were without contracts as they didn't needed one.

"Losing is the part of life, they are just too scared to even fight," Xarax said but his own words contradicted what Hargrave family was truly like.

Alfred just smiled, while Osbert remained calm.

Silvus didn't commented while Farnus was silent.

He didn't care if these guys fought with each other, as it was beneficial for him, the more difference of opinion was there between them.

After constant duels of Four Hours, and many matches later, the First Year matches were about to start again.

Amelia was standing with Damian who had bandage over his right arm.

"See, I told you it was nothing," Damian moved his arm around.

"Yeah, yeah," Amelia looked at Damian.

"I am telling, getting hurt by this hurts less than Ash's attacks," Damian said.

And Amelia remembered the Representative Tournament and the image of beaten Damian made her confused whether to say he was stupid or pity him.

But she just shook her head.

'I don't understand how are they friends,' Amelia thought in her head.

Ping!

Amelia got a notification, about her match.

"Who is it?" Damian asked.

"Elena Rothschild," Amelia replied.

"Best of Luck," Damian said looking at Amelia.

"And you are against Lishia Halcyon," Amelia said looking at the list.

"That would be tough," Damian said.

"Yes, with that injury it will be tough for sure," Amelia said.

But the first match was between Sam Allister and Matthew who was Rank 3.

"Who do you think will between these two," Amelia asked.

"Of course that Matthew guy, he is quite strong," Damian replied.

"But Sam that guy is not that weak either, he could have been a Ranker," Damian said.

And Amelia had heard Damian say that once before and she also was suspicious that Sam was hiding his strength.

But it everyone had their own reasons, and it didn't matter to her what Sam Allister did.

"But he wouldn't win against Matthew," Damian said.

And it was from experience that he was saying this. He had seen Matthew spar and he had heard that he was the most talented person in the Sword Art Class.

"Even the Seniors are jealous that guy is learning swordsmanship in Vice Principal Xander's class," Damian added.

"With his talent, it's obvious that would be quite good," Damian said.

Despite being this talented, Matthew was overshadowed under Asher's name.

After all, his own swordsmanship was nothing against Asher.

"And the next match is between Rank 12 Sam Allister and Rank 3 Matthew," The commentator announced.

"Hey Jack, your brother is fighting the guy under Leonard," One of the Third Year told Jack who was sitting in the VIP Area as Second Year Matches for today had ended.

Jack maintained his neutral face, but he didn't like Sam getting so much attention.

'Why is he making things difficult for himself,' Jack thought.

Sam walked on the stage, and so did Matthew who was ready to fight Sam.

Although they were friends, Matthew wasn't going to easy on Sam.

Sam saw the look on Matthew and he could guess how this match was going to go if he went through with it.

"Both sides get-," Referee was speaking but he got interrupted.

"I surrender," Sam said out loud.

Referee was surprised by Sam's decision, as going with the fight was more advantageous for him to improve his ranking.

"Are you sure?" Referee asked.

"Yes," Sam said and the crowd started booing.

Jack on the other hand was happy with Sam's decision.

"Rank 3 Matthew is the Winner,"

The announcement was made, as Sam went back to the stage.

"Doesn't feel good," Sam muttered to himself.

He had resolved to surrender because of his situation, but it didn't feel good when he did.

But it was better for him to do so, then escalate his situation at his family.

Standing out wasn't good for him, and not being a ranker also made his family ignore him just like Asher told him.

And now Sam had something to believe in, he wasn't hesitant to put his reputation on the line for it.

"I hope he keeps his promise," Sam said as a sigh left his mouth.
