I started to roam the halls of the dormitory asking the other students where Sebastion was staying at. Thankfully Sebastion was quite the unpopular person around here, similar to me, so it wasn't long until someone gave me directions.

While walking towards Sebastian's room I had to think about how I would get him to agree to the rank match. People didn't know my current rank that I had obtained, so I was unknown to them for my fighting skills. There was no gain for Sebastion to fight a low rank like me.

At the same time, I didn't want to tell him that I was the one who had obtained the 9th rank in fear that it would scare him off. I thought hard for a while and came up with something that would be hard for him to reject.

I was told that Sebastion had come from Silvertown, meaning he would be in that section of the building. When I had just approached the outside of the building I was surprised to see a group of five people waiting.

A tall good looking man with silver hair came forward from the group.

"I heard that someone was looking for me, I assume it's you?"

Sebastian was a tall person for his age. As he was stood in front of me he was at least two heads taller than me. but I wasn't afraid, I had faced beast that were bigger and more intimidating than him right now.

"How did you know?" I asked.

"Information travels fast, I heard someone was looking for me, as soon as I saw that black sash on you I could guess straight away why you came here. You want to get a little revenge for your friend, don't you?"

It took all my strength to hold back the anger inside me, If I could, I would slice off his head right here and now, but with the power I had it would be impossible to escape from Avrion Academy."

"Let's have a ranked match, me and you."

Sebastion started to laugh.

"And what would I have to gain from doing that, I already beat the best of you black sashes had to offer, and Gary, let's just say he's special, but you? you're nothing but a curse who ruins everything they touch, even your so-called friends."

"If you win, you can have these."

I opened my hand to reveal two intermediate beast Crystals.

"How did someone like you get that?"

Intermediate crystals had high value for new students at avrion academy. Students weren't allowed to use their gear in training but once basic training was complete, we would be able to hunt outside.

Having a couple of intermediate crystals instead of the basic tier crystals would allow you to make higher class equipment, giving you a big head start.

"My father was an adventure, he gifted them to me before leaving but I haven't had the money to find a smithy to turn these into anything yet. If you beat me you can have both of them."

I had thought about how to intice him and came up with this. My only hope was that Sebastion would be arrogant enough to think there was no possible way he could lose.

"Deal, but I want the match to be in front of everyone at the training grounds. After all, I don't want anyone thinking I forced myself to take these from you."

"Fine by me."

We walked our separate ways and I started to head back towards my room for tomorrow. On the way back to my dorm I ran into Kyle.

"Ray, I just heard you're going to fight with Sebastion are you Crazy! He'll kill you, you didn't see what he did to Monk."

As usual, word travelled fast around here.

"Kyle, just trust me, I need you to do me a favour, can you start that betting ring you did like with the last fight?"

"Yeah sure I can, but even if you are planning to bet against yourself to make a load of money I don't think it's the right way."

I looked towards Kyle with both of my hands on his shoulders not saying another word. Kyle eventually gave in.

"Fine, fine, I can't stop you anyway, just do me a favour and get in at least one hit."

We both went our separate ways and prepared for tomorrow.

*****

The next day the students were out and about training outside but just like previously everyone was focused on one thing only. A battle between the number two student and a black sash student.

This was how the fight had been advertised. A lot of people were interested in black sash students after the performance Monk gave. They were interested in seeing how well they could do against Sebastion. Still, the odds were high in Sebastion favour which was expected.

The fight was soon to start with the two contestants now stood opposite each other. A crowd quickly formed with Ray and Sebastion in the middle.

Earlier in the day, Kyle had gone around collecting money as instructed by Ray. Most people had betted on Sebastion to win apart from two people. They were Gary and Eric. The only two people to have ever fought with Ray seriously.

Rays roommates were stood by the side watching nervously. Dan was the first to speak.

"So how long do you think Ray will last?"

"I just hope he doesn't get hurt," Ian said.

Gary and Slyvia were the only ones who had a different opinion.

"I think this fight won't go how we expect it to," Slyvia said.

"Oh, how love is blind," Dan said.

"If you can't see how strong Ray is, then maybe your the blind one."

Dan wanted to reply but the fight was soon to start so everyone attention was now focused on the people in front of them.

As the fight was about to start the contestants sent each other an invite on their communicator. Sebastion pupils shrunk at what he had seen.

"No wonder you were so confident, so you were the one who beat Eric!" Sebastion shouted.

Everyone around was shocked at what they had heard. Especially the students who had fought Ray previously. They knew that his rank before wherein the 250+ mark.

This new information had just made the fight, get a lot more interesting.
