Chapter 1955: Clash
The waiter looked at the huge bag of coins and ran into the kitchen.
Meanwhile, everyone looked at the bag and gulped nervously. That is a ten thousand platinum coins laying on the table. Everyone had at least one thought of just trying to pull some shit. It would change their lives.
Not just for the normal citizens, even for the students. In fact, especially for the students that are starting out. Even the seniors like Irel are tempted.
But of course, the seniors are much more vigilant.
They didn't understand what a guy that can handle that much money is doing by picking trouble with them like this.
Sam is also carefully looking everyone that focused on him. He even activated his energy vision and picked a few energy signatures that are raising. Some people are really thinking if they should make a move.
They are not entirely stupid though. .com
Even if they did, it wouldn't be right now.
Everyone is waiting for the waiter to come and he didn't take long. The waiter picked up the coin bag excitedly and said.
"Sir, the chef accepted your order. Thank you for being such a valuable customer to us. He also offered a free meal plan for you for the next six months, you can eat however much want here and you wouldn't charged at all."
The waiter didn't even bother with the enforcement squad or the students from Zeus academy, instead he directly went back to the kitchen with his money.
Sam chuckled and tapped on the table.
"Now, I am sure the chef doesn't mind. So, unless I am presented with my two bowls of soup, I will not be leaving."
This put enforcement squad in an awkward spot. They believed that the restaurant is their best hope and since they are all from Olympian schools, they thought the owner would favor them. But Sam bought it with money.
A much more tangible benefit compared to whatever these kids from Zeus school could provide.
They didn't know what to do.
At this moment Irel took a deep breath and turned to enforcement squad.
"We are ready for the investigation. The enforcement team can investigate the matter however they want and once the case goes through the trial, Rain will face whatever punishment he was given.
But this case is of a small level. It is destruction of private property at most and since the person himself is admitting his guilt and is awaiting the punishment, this doesn't warrant the victim to restrain the criminal.
The victim would be committing a bigger crime by doing that. That would be a separate case.
That gives us a right to bring our fellow student back. You know the rules here. We are going to do whatever we can to bring our junior back. You can investigate that case also."
Sam looked at Irel with a smile. She finally lost her patience and is making a decisive move. In fact, he wished she had done that sooner.
The group of seniors are full of Middle Stage Divine Plane Initiation Cultivators. It is perfect for Sam to test out how strong he is right now. But to his dismay, the one that made the move are not the seniors.
Enforcement Squad captain, just stayed put as he tacitly agreed to Irel's words. Meanwhile Irel took out her communication device and called for some people.
Within two minutes a new group of ten people arrived. They are also wearing the same Zeus' academy clothes and their clothes are same as Pearl and Rain's.
This is the group of juniors.
"Rain? I already knew that you are up to no good, when you tried to so hard to take junior Pearl out today. I shouldn't have let you take her out. You just spoiled the name of our academy in her eyes."
The young man said while watching Pearl from the side of his eyes to gauge her reaction. But she didn't show any reaction. Her eyes are locked on Sam in amusement. She is looking forward to see what he is going to do.
Irel looked at the new group of juniors and said.
"Bring back Rain. We need to get back to the academy and report the whole incident to the student council. This is not going to end here."
The last sentence was said while she is looking at Sam.
Even though she wanted to step forward and kill him herself, Zeus academy lost a lot of face today, she didn't want to add on to that by being a senior and killing a junior. But if juniors fight among themselves that is a different thing.
The group of students immediately made their move.
The waiter who watched the whole scene suddenly turned nervous.
He really liked Sam and he wanted to see if he is going to get out of this unscathed. Sam on the other hand is just as relaxed. If it is people on the same level, then it isn't even a fight. Even the standard here is not really that good.
Rain finally saw some hope as soon as the first person among the group attacked, he also gathered energy and was about to throw a palm strike on Sam from behind, but before he could do that, Sam made his move.
He pressed his hand on the chair and kicked up into the air. His foot went over his head and hit Rain on the face in an unnatural way.
Rain felt like he is a nail being hit by a hammer. He couldn't see anything for a second. While bringing his leg back, Sam slammed that heel into the head of the attacker that just lunged forward.
*BAM* *CRASH*
The kick landed right on the crown and slammed the guy's forehead and face into the wooden floor.
His head was almost invisible as it went beneath the floor. His body shivered slightly before he lost consciousness.
Everyone turned silent.
Rain who finally felt the stunning effect release his head, noticed that he is on his knees once again and one of his batchmates had his face planted into the wooden floor.
The whole restaurant turned silent and all the attackers stopped in their tracks.
"I won't be leaving without the soup today. If you want to go for a fight, let's go for it. But trust me, you should be willing to kill me to make me let go of your schoolmate today without having my two bowls of soup."
Irel's aura raged as she looked at how at ease Sam was. The juniors who were just mocking and laughing at Rain are too afraid to make another move. They clearly understood that Sam is stronger than them and they didn't want to risk getting injured too much at the start of the school year.
But they didn't want to get on Irel's bad books either.
To their luck, Irel told them to withdraw and sent a senior to deal with him.
"Kill him if you have to. We can't let this drag on. Crowd is getting bigger by second."
She said as she looked at the group of people outside the restaurant. This is going to be a viral news now. Everyone within the academic realm will no of this and they should make a statement to save the face of Zeus academy.
The senior stepped forward with a sword in his hands.
The enforcement squad captain turned around as if he doesn't know what is happening.
As the sword slashed towards Sam, he finally made a serious move. The reaper sword appeared in his hand and blocked the attack.
The sword keen made everyone alert. The aura around them turned sharper. Sam felt the impact from the blow go through him to the chair and the floor.
The senior didn't mind that Sam blocked. Instead he smiled and quickly made another attack. The sword slipped against Sam's sword and aimed at Sam's leg.
Sam jumped up on the chair and dodged the sword strike, before he threw the slash of his own.
He had the higher ground because of the chair, so to deal with that, the opponent slashed the chair off trying to make Sam lose balance and attacked him at the same time.
Sam indeed fell back, but it wasn't an awkward situation for him. He skillfully manuevered in the air and blocked the slash before he went ahead and attacked the senior with a stab while landing on the ground.
Everything happened in an instant.
Sam and his opponent took a step back. The opponent is now way too vigilant. He lunged forward as wind elemental energy condensed around him. He gathered all of it into his blade and his moves changed.
Even though he didn't activate fusion, he looked like he is dissolving into the wind. His footwork was impeccable.
Sam couldn't catch him for a moment, and only managed to block the attack when it almost landed. But the wind energy slashed at him on his chest where he blocked the attack.
He had to slide back to reduce the impact and make sure he wasn't cut deep.
