The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 27: Levi

The young man with red eyes resembled a mighty hero, standing there with a stoic expression on his face and the body of an Atrox in his hand.

Cain was even more shocked than the others as he recognized the Atrox. It was exactly the one at Level 3 that almost killed him.

Zamir’s eyes narrowed as he saw the red-eyed youth. He had stood away from this one before as he enjoyed being the center of attention, but now he smiled.

The situation was out of his control, but he could not just back down, so Zamir chose to rely on the red-eyed youth’s momentum to handle the situation and pressure Cain into submission.

“Brother, it is good that you are here. The situation might seem strange, but what happened...” Zamir had just started speaking when the red-eyed youth stopped him.

“First of all, don’t call me brother. And second, I heard all of it. Your yelling was hard to ignore.”

That short exchange enraged Zamir. He was being polite, and yet the red-eyed youth practically insulted him. Had anyone else done that, he would teach them a lesson, but things were not so simple this time.

.....

The red-eyed youth calmly walked toward Cain while dragging the Atrox’s body. His face showed nothing, and after Zamir’s fiasco, none of the nobles dared to talk to him.

Cain’s breath slowly as he prepared to handle anything. The red-eyed youth was undoubtedly more powerful than him, but that did not mean he would just give up.

The distance between the two reduced until they were five meters apart. That length was nothing for Level 2 Astral Wave Warriors, and silence reigned as everybody waited to see what would happen.

“My name is Levi. I know for a fact that you did guide the Atrox toward the duo. Could you tell me why you chose those two specifically?”

Levi’s words shocked all those present. He assured that Cain did indeed guide the Atrox toward Nira and James, but not only was there no sense of rebuke in his words, he even politely asked for an explanation.

“Lord Levi, he did...”

“Speak to me again, and I will break your jaw.”

Just like with Zamir, Nira could not finish her sentence because Levi interrupted her. However, the red-eyed youth’s behavior toward her was much colder.

Levi did not bother to hide his emotions, and his eyes showed evident disgust as he stared at the woman.

Nira was surprised by that. She had never met the red-eyed youth, yet this one clearly had a bad impression of her. Despite her anger, she did not dare to antagonize Levi and kept quiet.

Cain was surprised by the sudden events. He had already given up on explaining what happened to the other cadets since they would never support him, but since Levi gave him a chance to speak, he took it.

“I did guide the Atrox toward them. I needed to use someone to distract that monster, and since they did not have a problem attacking me while I fought a Hell Devil, I chose them.”

“LIAR!”

Cain had barely finished speaking when Nira yelled at him. However, before she could continue, she felt Levi’s cold eyes focus on her neck.

Levi’s gaze was full of savagery as he stared at Nira, but calm down as he focused on Cain.

“Do you have proof that what you say is the truth?”

Cain nodded toward Levi and sent a file from his [A.I. Chip Module] to the chip of this one.

Levi closed his eyes for a moment as he went through the video recorded by Cain that clearly showed Nira and James attacking this one during the fight with the Hell Devil.

Once Levi went through the video, he turned toward Nira and sneered.

“Hmph. You attacked him before and almost took his life, yet now you are crying because he did something similar to you. I wonder how hypocritical can someone be?”

Nira froze and saw how the nobles who before looked at her with pity slowly moved away. If Cain had shown the video before, she would have just said it was fake, and the others would have backed her, but no one dared side with her against Levi.

She even saw how Zamir let go of her. The pitiful expression on her face vanished, and a poisonous hatred emerged in her eyes.

“So what if I use him! He is just a lowly commoner. Die to help someone of a Noble Family like me should be an honor to him. James’ death is all his fault!”

Everybody was shocked by Nira’s words. Her twisted mentality surprised even the nobles, and all the goodwill they had toward her vanished.

Although many of the nobles did indeed see commoners as inferior, none of them would dare to say those words out loud, especially in the military.

Commoner made up the bulk of the Imperial Military Force, and many Captains and other higher ranks came from such backgrounds, so Nira’s words severe any path she might have in the military.

Many of the commoners felt rage at those words, but the most potent killing intent did not come from them but from Levi.

A burning Astral Wave burst out of the red-eyed youth as he stared at Nira, and without saying a word, he walked toward her.

Nira froze as she felt that killing intent and saw Levi approaching. All the nobles had already moved away, and there was no way one of the commoners would step up to help her.

Luckily for her, someone did intervene, and not even Levi could handle that man.

“The Military Academy Secret Trial is over. You are not allowed to harm someone unless it is in self-defense.” Vice-Captain Josef’s words reached everybody, and they knew things would not escalate anymore.

Levi’s eyes narrowed as he turned around and stared at Josef. Unlike the others, there was a calm smile on the man’s face, showing that the youth’s fierce aura caused nothing on him.

Nira took a breath of relief after hearing Vice-Captain Josef’s words, but when Levi focused on her again, this time with a cold smile, she knew something horrible would happen.

“I know he led the Atrox toward you because I had been lurking in the shadows waiting for a moment to attack this Level 3 Wave Warrior. I was honestly surprised by the sudden events, but I adapted and chased while remaining hidden. Meaning that I was also there when the Atrox attacked you and that man named James. Do you want me to show everybody what happened during that battle?”

Levi’s words confused people as they saw Nira’s complexion grow pale.

“Please, no.” Nira’s plea did not stop Levi. The next second, everybody received an archive through their A.I. Chips.

Curiosity made it so that all opened the archive containing a video. In it, the cadets saw how Nira and James fought against the Atrox.

At one point, Nira fell to the ground, and James jumped in front of the Atrox to protect her.

Instead of showing gratitude, the woman fired a shadow blade toward James’ leg. That allowed Nira to run away, certain that someone would be left behind to entertain the Atrox.

That is how the video ended. What happened later, including the battle between Levi and the Atrox, was omitted.

The cadets could only assume that James perished and that Levi managed to perform his ambush, allowing him to kill the Atrox.

If before the nobles stood away from Nira to not be dragged down with her, now they did it as they could not stand her presence.
