Everyone was speechless as the hero they were proud of was laying on the ground unconscious. No matter how they looked at it, they realized how weak Asmond was compared to Mykel's team. They then rembered why they had doubts about the Fraternity Association in the first place.
"Mykel... He's trying to humiliate us the Fraternity Association!" Rufus clenched his fists as he glared at Mykel standing in front of the glass wall, staring at Asmond.
"Stop it, Rufus. It was us who accepted the invitation, and you can't bla him for that. It's just that we fell into his trap," Roxanne replied. "You're not the only one who's pissed about the outco," Roxanne continued.
Since nobody could treat Asmond's internal wounds, they brought him to the imdiate treatnt room that the arena provided. When Rufus and the others went to check on Asmond, they were surprised to see Doctor Devi, the famous doctor who had the title of the Hand of God in the room with him.
"He's in good care, there's no need for you to be worried," Deviatris said as she checked on all the wounds on Asmond's body. "Although, I'm not going to be the one who will treat him," Deviatris explained as she looked at soone behind them.
"How is he?" Mykel's voice could be heard on the door.
Rufus gritted his teeth and turned around. Before he could do anything, Roxanne and Glen stopped him and forced him to stay.
They watched Mykel walk past them and then stood next to Asmond. He healed all Asmond's wounds in an instant, and Asmond slowly regained consciousness.
Mykel didn't say anything and left after he treated Asmond, but he felt the hate coming from Asmond's team. He only chuckled mischievously and it made all of them irritated and furious.
"Asmond, are you alright?" Roxanne asked and she looked so worried as she held Asmond's left arm.
"I'm fine..." Asmond answered as he groaned.
"Asmond, let's leave! That bastard is only trying to humiliate us!" Rufus said.
Roxanne kicked Rufus' shin, and then signaled him by pointing her eyes at Deviatris who was standing there with them. She knew that Deviatris worked for Mykel or the Guild Association. She was warning him to not speak ill of Mykel or anyone from the Guild Association.
"I'll let myself leave if that makes you more comfortable," Deviatris said as she removed her latex white gloves. "This place isn't wired, and if you're worried if I'm working for the Guild Association, I'm not. I'm just here for precaution if things went bad under Miss Lyneth's request," Deviatris smiled at them and then left the room.
They all looked at Deviatris leave the room, and the mont she closed the door behind her, they finally could breathe peacefully.
"Let's just leave," Asmond said as he slowly got off the bed. "There's sothing that I found during my fight against Sven. I think I know sothing that I shouldn't have," Asmond continued as he looked at his unscathed armor after the fight.
"I'll handle the affair with the Guild Association. It would be bad if we just leave, and I'll use the excuse that you're still unwell after the fight," Roxanne said as she looked at Asmond.
Asmond nodded with understanding and thanked her.
The opening ceremony was over, and the winner of the friendly match was Rozan. He knew everyone's weaknesses and abused his knowledge to win against them. It was an easy win and enough to prove who was the strongest among Mykel's team. Unfortunately, Jeanne and Agnez weren't there, so nobody knew who was actually the strongest on the team.
Asmond and his team went back to headquarters shafully. The words had spread about how weak the Fraternity Association was compared to the Guild Association. They couldn't deny it anymore and they didn't want to deny it because it would only make them look bad in the eyes of the public.
"What did you find, Asmond?" Roxanne asked.
"When I used my Nesis skill on Sven, I checked my status screen. I saw my Body Enhancent skill had turned to level sixteen. Not only that, but my Status Resistance and my Elent Resistance were also beyond level ten," Asmond explained as he rubbed his face.
They were shocked by the revelation that Asmond had found.
"Wait, doesn't that an all of them are the sa as Sven?" Glen asked in disbelief. "If that's the case, we have never had the chance in the first place!" Glen continued and was annoyed by the fact they were tricked by Mykel.
"That's not the case here, Glen. In the first place, it's impossible to break the limit. There's no way a person can have skills beyond level ten. Sothing isn't right, and we all know Asmond is the only one who has reached level ten on his Body Enhancent skill, and it turned into Max, not ten which ans it should be impossible," Arum said as she showed her troubled expression.
"That's not all," Asmond said as he looked at everyone. "After I took Sven's basic skills and removed the gap between and him, he used sothing that made him twice stronger than ," Asmond continued as he tried to rember what happened.
They were shocked and couldn't believe it if it wasn't Asmond who said it. If Asmond had already taken Sven's power and beca equal to him, but suddenly Sven beca twice stronger after that, it could only an he still had the ability to surpass the limit.
"That's bullshit, how can they all be so overpowered?!" Rufus asked.
"I don't know, but don't you think it's weird?" Asmond asked and he looked serious and suspicious about sothing.
"About what?" Roxanne asked.
"We have investigated those Awakeners who suddenly beca strong. We also heard about the experint that the Demonic Cult did. In the first place, before all of this happened, there was one incident that the governnt hide from the public," Asmond explained.
"What incident?" Silas asked.
"Only a few people knew about this, and even the higher-ups didn't know much about it. But, it was an incident that happened a year ago in District Thirteen. The Azazel Tower that you see now was the result of a battle, and that was when the first appearance of the Demonic Cult," Asmond answered.
They didn't know what actually happened, and they knew it was the result of a battle when they saw the Azazel Tower's condition. They were curious about what Asmond found about the truth behind the incident that he ntioned.
"We have fought dozens of Demon Lords, and none of them had the mind nor the ability to create such a ss like this. But, that didn't change the fact that Demonic Cult summoned a powerful demon, maybe the strongest Demon Lord. I heard that there's a being called Demon Princess who resided on the hundredth floor of each tower, and maybe that was what they summoned," Asmond explained as she looked at everyone.
"What are you trying to say, Asmond?" Roxanne asked nervously.
"We all know if there's soone who's powerful enough to fight a Demon Princess, that person must be Mykel. But, I don't think Mykel is strong enough to kill a Demon Princess, and who knows what really happened back there in District 13. What if, on that day Mykel didn't kill the Demon Princess? What if, he made a pact with that Demon Princess and the reason why he's so powerful now and how his team also beco this strong was the result of the deal he made with that Demon Princess?" Asmond asked.
"Asmond, you should know what you're saying might put all of us in danger not only if it's true, but if it's not, then we are slandering Mykel and the Guild Association. All of that's just a speculation, and if you want to find any evidence to your words, you should be careful because we all already know that Mykel has eyes everywhere," Roxanne looked at Asmond.
"I believe him, and I think he's right about this. No matter how you look at it, bad things only happened to us. Mykel seed to know everything and looked like everything was under his palm. He has a power that an Awakener shouldn't have. In the first place, nobody knows how he beca this strong. The only answer is that Mykel might be working for the demons, perhaps he's a Demon King in disguise," Rufus said.
Everyone went quiet and thought about what they heard.
"Glen, I might put you in a danger, but can you dig more about this human experint?" Asmond looked at Glen with a serious expression.
Glen sighed as he stood up. "Just leave it to . I'm the one who got all those information in the first place. I'll bring in a piece of new information, just wait for ," Glen smiled, and then left the room.
