Chapter 43: Forced Duel

The individual who had spoken was a Caucasian young teenager. He had a long, light brown hair which he tied in a ponytail. A pretty tiny but long nose with a perfectly symmetrical lips. All in all, he was a pretty attractive guy. He was currently walking towards David's position.

Dav spoon which was about to enter through his mouth paused, as he heard the voice. But as if he heard nothing, he placed the final scoop into his mouth, chewing on them softly. Closing his eyes, he was decent enough to savour the taste this time.

Sighing in delight, he opened his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a brown haired teenager directly in front of his table, staring angrily at him. Behind the teenager were also three male students, glaring at Dav as if to swallow him.

One, had a large build, his arms almost as thick as one's thigh. He stood behind Nick like a loyal body guard.

The other had a good physique as he was just slightly shorter than the muscular guy but he was with a bald head.

The third student was schorlarly and a lanky youth. One glance at him, one would instantly see that he was extremely sly individual. His eyes seem to shift from place to place. No one knows what plans he was cooking up.

David was a bit startled, he was previously so immersed in the feeling that he had completely ignored his surroundings. Looking at the guy, David frowned. But upon noticing his angry expression, David's eyebrow rose slightly, thinking they were asking him to give up his seat. Suddenly, his expression regained its calmness.

"I'm done anyway, you can have the table now." David gestured while he stood up. Making his way out of the cafeteria. He knew that the best reply to give someone like him is to just ignore them.

Nick's expression changed slightly as he gazed at David's back who is currently walking towards the exit of the cafeteria. Nick had an ugly expression on his face.

Suddenly, the lanky youth whispered something in Nick's ear. His ugly expression loosened, returning back to his arrogant and humorous expression, he seemed to remember something, as he smiled maliciously.

"Wait!" Nick called out towards David. He was a few feet from reaching the exit when he heard the voice. Dav's expression tightened. He glanced towards the Caucasian youth with the corner of his eyes.

"What is the problem?" Dav was getting impatient. And it was clear from his tone.

Nick wasn't angry at all. He had thought of a plan. "You seem familiar to me." he tapped his head with his head lowered as if to remember.

"Oh, I think I got it now. You were with us when the instructor dropped us in the Energy Room." Nick spoke out with a smile.

'Uhn?' It was news to Dav as he hadn't thought of the fact that he wasn't the only one that had recuperated in the energy tank. But, so what. Although they might be in the same set, he doesn't appear to be concerned.

"Then, what about it?" Dav replied in a dull tone. He didn't see the point of this conversation.

Nick's smile froze but then it became frosty. "According to the rules set by the institute, I can request a compulsory Duel to a student per week. In which the other party must accept, as long as there isn't a big enough gap in the power level." His smile grew wider as he said this. He was already imagining himself beating him up.

They were up to five students that the instructor had dropped to the energy room. He had challenged two other Students who had been to the energy tank with them and he had won.

But although he won, it wasn't an easy win though. If it weren't for the fact that he was a Three Star talented individual he would have lost the first battle not to mention the second.

His one day of practice is almost the same as a Two Star talented individual's two days of practice, but that wasn't enough to dw

He had actually selected his Exercise Manual two days ago. The Energy Tank had already strengthened his body by a fair amount and together with his talent, and through a night of practice, His blood revolution had reach a level of 20 cycles per minute! A terrifying 1 cycles per three seconds! From its previous 12 cycles per minute. He was definitely stronger than he was, and previously.

He was confident enough to defeat his most of his peers. Although not all, he was still confident on defeating most of them! As he stared at David, although he tried to hide his malicious smile, but it was still ozzing off of him.

David's frown deepened further. Although he had skimped through his student's guide, he had read of something like that and he knew Nick wasn't lying either. He was just puzzled about the fact that Nick was so sure he was one of the students that was taken to the Energy Tank.

Scratch that, it's difficult, thinking deeply into things.

He train of thoughts was interrupted as a voice rang out in his head.

"Nick requested for a duel, do you wish to accept? Yes or No?" The cybernetic voice of his AI rang out.

He subconsciously was about to accept the battle, seeing as he had no choice.

"Hm?" His body failed to react though, as he instinctively felt that something was wrong with the sentence.

He checked it again only to be sure that something was really wrong with the phrase.

'He requested the battle, instead of imposing it on me. Trying to trick me? He seems he had used his Forced Duel on someone else or he was saving it for someone special. Ha! Does he take me a fool? ' Without any hesitation, he rejected the request immediately and without waiting for him to talk, he walked out of the cafeteria.

But before he could completely steer clear, he seemed to hear a roar, shouting out the word 'Coward!! '

Hearing those words, David couldn't help but smile faintly while he muttered. "Why would I bother myself when I can possibly ignore the matter."

Back in the cafeteria, Nick's expression kept changing several times. But it wasn't in a good way.

At long last, his expression settled on a shade of green. He was exasperated, indignant. He had used a bit of psychology. He had threw in a suggestion that was almost impossible to ignore towards David.

Those with little mental power and a cowardly attitude or even an ordinary person would subconsciously accept the Duel thinking that they had no other choice but to accept the duel. But David was clearly different.

Although, he had almost accepted the Duel, he still rejected at the end.

He had used the same method into tricking the second person he had challenged to think he had no choice but to fight. It worked perfectly.

But, it obviously didn't work on David. As he was about to bellow out in anger to vent, The lanky youth behind him spoke up again.

in a gentle but clear tone, "Boss, Since he saw through the trick, why don't you just make Stravor battle him." The youth pointed towards the huge guy by Nick's side indicating for Nick to make the huge guy who is called Stravor to battle Dav in a compulsory Duel.
