Skill Creation in the Fantasy World

Chapter 69: The Fastest.



Felix slowly walked out from the arena stage through the underground path.

He could hear the crowd out there cheering, shouting, and chanting his name as he moved ahead in the dark path.

"Phantom!"

"Phantom!"

"Phantom!"

Even though he was feeling quite exhausted from using his stamina-draining skill, Felix had a slight smile on his face getting happy from his recent win.

He moved on and came out from the path before quickly making his way away from there, so as to not get caught up with the excited crowd.

There were still three matches remaining and he wanted to quickly end them, so wasting time here was of no use.

After he walked away, a group of men arrived there and started searching for him.

"Where did he go?"

"Quick search for him, we must follow him to see if he joins another battle."

Henry excitedly said to the other men who nodded and spread out looking for the man who they had thought as their lucky charm.

They all moved around the crowd in search of him before one of them suddenly called out.

"There! I see him going there!"

All the men gathered around him as he pointed at the back of Felix who was walking in a different direction.

"Good. Don't lose him, he's our only way to get rich."

"Come on come on, we must definitely bet on him this time."

Henry and Dufus led all the men to trail behind Felix. They traversed the crowdy arena grounds eyeing him as the rest of the people glanced at them strangely.

Felix walked on and reached another arena numbered 34 where he didn't hesitate and made his way towards there.

"He's joining another fight!"

"Yes! I'll bet on him this time for sure."

The group of men got excited at that sight as they all hurriedly ran to the betting booth of that arena.

They rushed to the man selling the betting tickets and quickly placed their bets on Phantom without even looking at who he was up against.

After placing the bets, they rushed to Arena 34 where they saw that Felix had already walked onto the stage and was doing stretches.

The group found some seats and sat there eagerly waiting for the fight that was going to start.

It didn't take long before the referee asked both fighters to get ready and started the battle.

"And the battle begins!!"

Dufus, Henry, and the group kept their eyes wide open to properly see for themselves what would happen in the match before it even began.

And that made them finally able to realize how fast that guy actually was.

Similar to the last match, Felix dashed ahead right at the moment when the referee brought down the green flag.

His speed quickened all of a sudden, flashing off afterimages at the scene as the crowd gasped at the spectacle.

Seeing that the guy had started to take action, a certain group in the crowd started to cheer out loud making a commotion with the audience.

"Phantom you can do it!"

"You're the fastest, come on!"

"That's right finish him!"

They were shouting raising their hands and showing their whole support to him as if they're life depended on it.

Their life actually did kind of depend on him as they had bet all their life savings in hopes of winning a large sum of money.

His eyes glowing a deep red like that of a hunter, Felix moved across the stage.

Appearing behind his opponent like a ghost, he unsheathed his weapon and attacked at several of the red weakness marks which could only be seen by him.

Blood spurted out dying the stage red and the audience gasped at the quickness.

As usual, targeting the weak points always gave good results and that is what happened as the guy whose name Felix did not even take note of fell head first on the ground.

"Thud....."

Sheating his shortsword back into the scabbard, Felix slowly started to walk away.

It didn't look as if he had just fought against an equally powerful opponent of the same zero rank, instead, it appeared more like he was taking a stroll around the park.

Watching the man leave the arena stage after defeating his opponent, the referee woke up and looked around before taking a gulp and announcing the end of the match.

"Umm, t-the battle ends and the winner is....Phantom!"

Poor referee, he couldn't even change the flag he was raising and became confused for a second there before doing it while still being in a state of shock.

The audience was in complete silence but then it was again disturbed by the same group of men who excitedly cheered out showing their joy.

"Yoohoo! He did it! He won again!"

This time it was Henry who started jumping first. And looking at him, the other men too started celebrating the victory.

"Yes! I knew he could do it."

"He won once again!!"

The whole audience had started to cheer too after witnessing the fastest battle they had ever seen, but the group who were making the most of a scene was without a doubt Henry and his friends.

Dufus smiled looking at them when he suddenly remembered something.

"Wait guys stop! We have to go behind him, what if he's joining another battle?"

All of them stopped their actions and stared at Dufus for seconds without blinking.

"Umm, would he still join? I really doubt that, I mean it's been four battles already."

One of them said slightly holding back his intentions as he didn't want to sound like a prick.

Henry looked at Dufus intently and asked.

"Dufus, what do you think? Do you still think that guy's going to battle another match?"

Dufus was surprised at the question he was asked but he didn't back down and nodded his head rapidly before answering.

"Yes, I'm sure of it. I saw that same previous look in his eyes when he was leaving the stage."

When they heard him say that, all of them looked around at each other before nodding.

Henry smiled and patted his shoulders.

"Well, this time we'll believe you. Let's go see what that guy has to show us."

Widening his eyes, Dufus stared at all of his friends who actually believed in him and he felt his eyes teary.

Rubbing his eyes, he nodded while smiling.

"Hnn, yeah we have to go before he disappears into the crowd."

The group of them agreed and quickly left the audience area, again searching for their lucky charm that would lead them to become a successful better.

They quickly found the guy who was wearing a black mask and robe making his way to some other arena stage.

"There he is...."

Dufus pointed at the guy they were finding while the rest of the group nodded and revealed a slight smile.

Henry twitched his lips looking at the guy searching for his way to another arena and shook his head in a daze.

"I can't believe this guy. He's really going to join another battle....."

All of them nodded while one of them replied.

"But hey, isn't that the best for us?"

The group eyed each other sneakily before breaking out into a burst of laughter.

"Hahaha, you're right!"

"If he wins, then we win!"

"Let's go guys, can't be getting late for the bets."

With smiles on their faces, the group of men followed behind Felix to witness another win.
