Chapter 114: The Seth Hunt(7)
Everybody in the stadium had their eyes focused on the screen, several scenes of the students trying their best to get to the top was being played, each of them were being faced with different problems when they tried to reach the top
“This years Seth hunt really is harder than the last”
Catherine’s hypnotic voice was heard in the room, bringing the attention of the other girls, the others didn’t say anything but there was slight approval swirling in their eyes as they looked at the students trying their best to reach the top, While back at the test the fake Auther felt the splitting headache but he was able to quickly push it off
‘I guess it’s time I get a bit serious’
Fake Auther took a deep breath, with that he increased his speed, of course at the same time he made it look like it was a bit difficult, after all he doesn’t want others to think that it’s easy
Soon his speed increased as he moved through the stairs, due to him going slow at first, many others had reach 2000 steps, leaving him behind but he wasn’t that worried, with quick steps he started to catch up
600 steps

fast but ‘strugglingly’ he moved forward, in each random steps he felt a headache or an attack at mind creating illusions in front of him, if one doesn’t have a good will power he would then be pulled into the illusion, being unable to move forward
Of course such a low level mind attack wasn’t effective at him, not with his blessings and the items he wears for protection, under others disbelieving eyes he easily moves through the steps with at most haste
He was quickly catching up the ones at the top, the other students were stunned as they watched another student easily move past them, all they felt was a wind and the next they see a another boy in front of them moving at fast speed
The ones at the top turned their head hearing the voices from back, Turing around they saw a brown haired boy running up the steps catching up with them, Leonardo’s eyes popped seeing someone moving through the stairs easily, seeing the fake Auther moving like this the students at the top felt a scratch at their heart
Soon many at the front tried to increase their speed, trying to move forward, some hurting themselves, fake Auther didn’t pay any mind to them, as he moved through each step with light movements, soon he had caught up with the one at the top but he didn’t stop there as he kept moving forward
The other students could only be stunned as they saw a student of their same age moving through the will test with ease, soon fake Auther had reached the 3000 steps, even then he didn’t stop as he moved to the top
And under the disbelieving eyes of the viewers and the students he had reached the top, standing at the final step, he looked to the ground, he could see the others students struggling with all they got, he only looked at them with a smile as he moved to another place standing there for the rest to reach the top
Seeing the smile on his face as he stood above them, the rest of the students felt their body heat up in shame, they couldn’t hold themselves back anymore, as they tried to move forward with more zeal, Leonardo feeling the shame from his gaze finally decided to use his swords powers
Soon the pressure around him decreased, as he moved forward faster, the others too noticed this, they could only curse as they saw another dark horse in the game, Leonardo’s eyes didn’t waver as he moved forward, soon he reached within the last 500 steps
Each step felt hard, yet he didn’t stop, he kept moving forward, soon each step felt like a rock on his back but he didn’t stop, walking up with his sheer will power, it’s only at this time that he understood, how hard it was, he couldn’t believe it that the brown haired boy was above to move through the steps easily
With in a few minutes he had reached the top, he huffed and puffed as he stood at the top, he looked at the sky as he screamed with enthusiasm, he looked at the ground with pride within his eyes, soon his eyes turned towards the brown haired boy standing at the side, he looked at the boy as he pointed his hand to him
“I would be the one to win this”
‘Manh…does he really have to say all this protagonist s.h.i.t?’
The fake Auther looked at Leonardo for a second before he closed his eyes, ignoring the black haired boys childish words, Leonardo didn’t say anything else as he went by to another place standing aside trying to get his bearing back
It took another hour before the rest had gathered at the top, all of them were tired and was taking deep breaths as they laid on the ground, but most of them would at least once glance at the fake Auther, seeing if they had ever seen him before
Some had even walked up to him, trying to start a conversation, but he had ignored them, earning their ire but he didn’t give a s.h.i.t about them, he just stood there waiting for the last round to begin, soon the message had again arrived publicly
{Congrats to all those who have reached the end!, you have proven yourself to have indomitable will to move forward and the power to overcome your difficulties!, so stand tall with pride!, now the last round would begin!}
{Two will start the race and only one will exit the last point, so lets see who will emerge the winner in the end}
As soon as the voice faded, all the students who had reached the top broke into light as they were transported, fake Auther opened his eyes as he appeared on a surfing board, looking down he could see that he was surfing above the water
Water was flowing forwards, while the sides were blocked, he was in a cylinder like ground, it was like a water slide, except that it was wider, with a wide gap, turning to his side he was stunned to Leonardo as his compet.i.tor
‘Sigh…this is fate I guess’
Leonardo too was stunned to see the brown haired boy beside him, he didn’t expect the person he challenged to be the one who he will compete with, but soon an exited smile came to his face as he spoke
“Let the best one win”
Fake Auther only nodded his head to Leonardo’s words, not saying anything, soon a timer containing three appeared in front of them, they kept their eyes on the front as the conter hit 0,
Swish….
Both of the supplied mana into their board as they moved forward, Leonardo smiled as he took the front but soon he felt a heat at his back, he didn’t have a time to dodge but just as the heat was getting closer to him, Leonardo felt his sword tremble as it covered his back
Boom, he felt a hit at his back as he almost lost control of his movements, it took a few moment’s before he got his bearing, he controlled his balance as he moved through the water, the sword moved from his back as it flew to his hand, holding it he screamed at the brown haired boy who attacked him
“What are you doing!”
Fake Auther didn’t reply as he shot his arrows to Leonardo, while suppressing his powers to Leonardo’s power level, he just wanted to test this black haired boy, his arrows flew at super speed as they targeted Leonardo
Leonardo didn’t panic as he waved his sword to destroy the arrows aiming at him, with quick movements he waved his sword, cutting each of the arrows, but one of them made it through puncturing his shoulder
“Arghh”
Leonardo bite his lips as he looked at the fake Auther, half of his mana pored into his sword as he activated one of his swords special powers, with a a wave of his sword, a sword ray flew out of it towards the fake Auther
Fake Auther didn’t flinch as he made a barrier around him, he smiled with confidence, yet the sword arrow easily melted the barrier hitting him
‘s.h.i.t it was the anti sword ray!’
Fake Auther along with his surfing board flew, as he hit the walls of the slide, water splashed covering him, Leonardo looked at this with a smile, he pulled out the arrow as blood gushed out from him, it’s at that time he heard Durendal’s voice inside his head
‘Leo careful!, that guy has not fallen yet!’
Duredal’s voice was soon covered with a cracking sound, soon the scene cleared up, as the figure of the fake Auther showed, yet there were cracks makrs over him, looking at it the fake Auther smiled helplessly
“c.r.a.p, I messed that one”
Soon the cracks broke apart with a blast revealing another figure, the boy’s silver was a bit wet with the water, while his purple eyes gleamed, his face handsome enough to catch any girls eyes
Seeing the true figure of the balck horse of the tournament all the audience gasped, the girls eyes twinkled as they looked at the extremely handsome figure surfing in the water, while some of the boys cursed under their breath
Meanwhile, certain other students had another expression on their face, a silver haired and green eyes girl mutters with an enraptured expression as she saw that silver haired boy
“BIg brother…..”
While some other students raised their head looking at the silver haired boy, grat.i.tude, happiness, admiration and a bit of worship flashed through their eyes, meanwhile at the girls room, seeing the figure on the screen some of the girls shouted out loudly
“Austin!”
But as soon as it was said the girls looked at each other with a wary gaze, the temperature of the room plummeted
