As the battle continues, Raven's superiority shows itself as Kyro could only defend.

"You really are strong, no wonder you're a murderer. Having the Head Knight as your father really is useful. You can get away with your sins," Kyro snickered as he continued blocking Raven's attack.

Kyro started backing out but Raven created a fire whip to capture his feet to bring him back to where he is. Kyro in return shot fire arrows as he was being pulled back. Raven used his sword to block the incoming attack.

As Kyro comes closer to where Raven is, "Are you going to kill me now? Just as how you killed my brother?" he paused for a second, when he's close enough he opened his mouth once again, "Or your guards? Did you hear their screams as you burn them alive?" He then threw a Disperse shot which split into multiple fragments and attacked Raven's surrounding.

Eureka who's still fighting against Joji, looked towards Raven and Kyro's side confused.

"Stop looking away, I'm still your opponent," Joji then released Earth Bomb on Eureka's side, by manipulating the pressure of the Earth under her feet. Eureka jumped high enough to avoid the explosions. She landed on another side where Joji created Earth spikes just as she's about to land. She was able to evade it with a deep wound on her arm. As their battle continues, she heard the commentator's words.

"What's this? Raven suddenly stopped moving. And his face started contorting as if he's in deep pain."

On the other hand, the Headmaster and the Head Knight furrowed their brows as if thinking something deep.

In just two minutes under the relentless attack of Kyro, Raven suddenly roared as the temperature surrounding the stage rises. The Head Knight stood up and shouted for the Barrier Ability users to create a barrier surrounding the stands, isolating the stage.

"Is he losing control again?" Kaoru then asked seeing the hint of panic in Yukimura's eyes.

"I suppose, did that Kyro kid do something?"

Just as they were contemplating whether to stop the fight or not, Raven's fire started engulfing the whole stage. Raven kept roaring while Kyro laughed, "That's right, lose yourself even more. The best revenge is to break your mind."

Just as the heat of Raven's fire raised to the point where it could kill the other three on stage and just as Yukimura started instructing the water ability users to flood the stage, the fire suddenly disappeared.

On one side, shock is visible on Kyro's face, the same goes with Raven's. On the other side, Joji is lying unconscious and Eureka is squatting beside him exhausted.

"Wha-What happened?" Kaoru couldn't help but ask.

Yukimura looking at his son's face knew that Raven was not the one who stopped his ability from wreaking havoc. Then what really happened?

The whole stadium fell in confusion, as Kyro started roaring, "What happened?"


Raven looked at him, "You dirty bastard." As he took a step, he lost all strength and was about to hit the ground. he then felt someone supporting him, looking at the person who supported him.

"Just rest already," that's all and she helped him sit down.

"What happened? I remember losing control, but how did it all disappear?" Raven looked at her confused.

"Don't ask me. Even I am exhausted from your rampage," she said indifferently but her eyes were as cold as ice.

"Who interrupted?" Kyro who's still shouting as a madman looked around the stadium. He suddenly felt a murderous aura behind him. Looking back Eureka, who was 5 meters away from him, was staring at him. Suddenly fear engulfed his heart. He threw another Disperse shot. Eureka stopped walking towards him.

The whole stadium is still quiet as the Generals of all the squads, Kaoru, and Yukimura all looked so serious.

"*laughs madly* You can't defeat me, you murderer," he then dashed towards her with his sword pointing at her.

*clash*

Just as his sword was about to hit her, she raised her own sword and parried him.

"Wha-" shock was painted on his face. He jumped backward several times before shotting her with Disperse shot and started chanting the attack for inferno. The whole stage once again was engulfed with fire. Like a madman, Kyro started laughing once again.

Kaoru stood up to stop the fight when an arrow was shot from the stage towards the stands, opposite where the higher-ups were seating. It grazed the cheek of one of the audience.

"Who shot that?" those who are near the man was confused at the same time mad. Cause that arrow could have hit them.

In the stage, as the fire disappeared, Eureka, whose parts of her clothes were burned, was standing facing the stands holding a bow. Thinking back, Kaoru realized that there is indeed a bow and arrow on Eureka when the battle began. But why did she use it now?

"Your crazy why are you hitting us?" the audience shout towards her angrily.

"Stop meddling, or the next shot would be on your eyes," she said as she looked at the man coldly.

"Could that guy be-" Kaoru looked at the guard beside him, "Quickly seize that man."

The guard obliged and run towards where the man, who was sitting still as his face lose its color, was.

Eureka then faced Kyro, who no longer knows what's going on, he then started swinging his sword as he saw Eureka approaching him.

"Stay away from me. STAY AWAY FROM ME!!" he started shouting as he aimlessly swings his sword.

Eureka dashed towards him, instead of using her sword, she used her fist, punching him straight in the face. Kyro lost his balance and stumbled on the ground. Eureka then bombarded him with punches.

"If you can't move on, then do so on your own. Stop pulling others with you. Your brother died heroically, he knows he can't compare to Raven so he sacrificed himself. What your doing is not revenge and your brother will never be happy towards what you are doing."

Kyro tried protecting himself from her punches but to no avail.

"Shut..... up... you don't... know any-... anything," he answered back with difficulty.

"Yes you know about it, but why are you pointing at the wrong person. Why are you getting mad at the wrong person? Why are you taking revenge at the wrong person? It's no longer because of your brother. It's for your own selfish desire. You're jealous of him, he is far stronger than you are, he awakened his ability at a tender age. He's currently at level 2 while you're still at level 3. And your jealous of that so you think that if everyone knows that he's a murderer he would be an outcast, that's why you kept on blabbering the same thing all this time."

"But you noticed that it's to no avail so you used this battle to break his mind. You really are stupid, you're nothing but a weakling."

After so many punches, Kyro lost consciousness.

A minute passed before the commentator returned to reality and announced the winner. But then Kaoru announced that Kyro's team used a third party on the battle so the whole team was disqualified giving Raven's team the win. He then announced the end of the battle for the day. One by one the audience recovered from the shock and started walking out of the stadium. It was the most chaotic fight they've seen. Some of them are chatting about the strength of the new knights while the others still couldn't comprehend what had happened.

When the medic runs towards the stage, they saw Joji outside the ring still unconscious, looking around Raven was sitting outside the ring as well. Although confused they still did their job.

Eureka walked towards where Raven is.

"Thanks for pushing us out of the stage," Raven said.

Before the inferno engulfed the stage Eureka swiftly pushed both Raven and Joji out of the stage, knowing that only the caster will not be affected by his attack.

"You know the story?" He then asked while being mended by the medic.

"When I was passing our arrangement, the ones receiving it were blabbermouths. And started telling me what happened without me asking them," she said sitting down beside him.

"Your hands," seeing her wounded hands Raven said.

"I punched him that's normal."

"I ended up doing what happened 10 years ago once again. I lost control of my ability," Raven smiled bitterly. "I really am a murderer, I killed those two guards even though they were so kind to me and was happily chatting with us about their family,"

"How many times have you heard the words, it's not your fault?" Eureka asked.

"Many times, but I know that it is still my fault. I killed them."

"Those two were gravely injured. You've seen it a while ago."

"You knew what happened a while ago? That the third party was a Recollection ability user. *laughs bitterly* He showed me that day once again."

(Recollection ability user are those that shows to the person their past. It is useful in breaking the mind of their opponents by showing them their most unwanted memories.)

"Then you should have seen the face of those two guards."

Raven looked at her and thought for a while.

That day was tragic, while on their way to the Western Kingdom to train. Hiro who was a zero had a higher sensibility than others. He felt the presence of 10 people not far from them. He immediately understood that they were about to be ambushed. He pushed Raven out of the carriage as the horses were still running. Their four escorts were stunned but Hiro just smiled bitterly at them and told them that they might die on this day.

Yukimura was careless on sending them off, he had four ability users escort them. But those four weren't that strong. They weren't even knights.

Raven who was shocked from being pushed out of the carriage run towards the direction it went to. Not far away he heard explosions and screams. Upon arriving he witnessed the moment those bastards slit the throat of Hiro. His emotions surged and that's when he awakened his ability but lost control of it. Upon waking up, he was still holding Hiro's body, the 10 assassins were burned to death. Looking around he saw that not far away from the body of the assassins were the bodies of the other 2 escorts, and they were burned.
