The God Of Power

Chapter 26:

A few months had passed since Noboru Chikara and Celestia Lunablade entered Celestial Vanguard Academy, but their situation hadn't improved. All of the teachers tried to sabotage them, punish them for no reason, and tried to make it so that the three kingdoms' royals and nobles never appeared weaker than them.

Noboru, however, used his Dragon Kingdom's control of Dimensium, which was a critical resource needed to make sure that the Academy and the other three kingdoms functioned as leverage, stopping unjust detentions or suspension threats. Today was special; they had combat class, but that wasn't what was special. What was special is the fact a new student that was really powerful was joining. From his spies, Noboru knew it wasn't from the three kingdoms.

Noboru and Celestia entered the classroom and took their seats before Mr. Sato, their teacher, came in followed by a boy with golden hair and golden eyes, wearing some white suit with golden outlines. He looked at the class, and Noboru noticed the boy looking at Noboru with a glare before quickly changing to a smile. His eyes narrowed.

'Who is he? Is he allied with the three kingdoms? It might be the case, seeing as I sensed hate from him towards me, and he was brought by the three kingdoms,' Noboru thought as he looked at his partner and protector Celestia who nodded.

"Hello class, we have a new student joining us today. Everyone say hello to Hikari. He has no last name or can't remember it. He was chosen by the three founding Kings of the Phoenix, Quilin, and Tortoise kingdoms. Lord Shin Chikara of Phoenix, Lord Yami Chikara of the Quilin, and Lord Niju Chikara of the Tortoise kingdoms had personally recommended him," Mr. Sato said, and everyone applauded.

Noboru looked at the new boy with suspicion.

'This is getting fishy. He isn't from the other 3 Kingdoms, nor is he from the Dragon Kingdom since I would know as it's King. The Dragon Kingdom is ruled by the council until I become of age, and my Spies have no information on him. He can't be from the Demon Empire because they don't coexist with human or inhuman races, and this Hikari is strong, maybe even strong enough to match me in the Crimson State or even when I'm in my Transcendent State. I need more info on him,' Noboru said.

"Hikari is strong, and his strength is talked highly by the Three founding kings," Sato said as Meiyo and Kouki scoffed at the fact their Great-Great Grandfather Shin Chikara talked highly about this loser. Noboru couldn't help but stifle some laughter at seeing his ex-sister Meiyo and ex-brother Kouki be jealous. They thought they were all that because some old man said they were ones of prophecy. Noboru never believed them one bit.

"I think that's enough talking now. Hikari, go to your seat," Sato said, and Hikari nodded.

Hikari looked at the classroom before he saw Noboru and smiled. Noboru felt chills in his spine, like he was facing his exact opposite or something that rivaled him.

"Noboru-san, as you are one of the strong ones in the academy, how about you and Hikari battle so we can gauge his strength. But it would be understandable if you're scared. I mean, your former Great-Great Grandfather Shin spoke so highly about him, and if he is so strong, it's no wonder you're scared," Sato said. Noboru's eyes narrowed before he looked at Hikari.

"Fine, I'll do it," Noboru said, and Hikari smiled before he stood up and went to the front of the classroom.

"Ok, class, now sit back and enjoy the fight," Sato said, and the other students sat down.

"Celestia, you will stay near me to make sure you don't help your partner," Sato said, and Celestia nodded.

"I will keep you safe, Noboru," Celestia said as she stood behind Noboru.

"Ok, now Noboru and Hikari, you may begin the battle," Sato said.

Noboru got in a battle position.

"Oh, and Noboru, remember this is a fight to see who is stronger between you and Hikari, nothing more, nothing less," Sato said, and Noboru nodded. "You will both start in 3, 2, 1, GO!" Sato said, and the fight began.

Now then, Hikari, show me what you're made of," Noboru said, and Hikari looked at Noboru before his face turned into one of disgust and hatred.

"Let's see if you are worthy of being his child, Noboru," Hikari said in a condescending tone, making Noboru mad. How dare this boy say him, Noboru, has to earn the right to be Hiroshi, the neglecting abusive asshole's son.

Noboru dashed at Hikari, appearing instantly behind Hikari, punching him only for Hikari to grab his punch and throw his own punch, which Noboru dodged and sent an uppercut to Hikari, sending him flying up. Noboru then dodged an attack from behind and was then kicked in the face and sent flying by Hikari. Both were bleeding from the face.

"He managed to hurt me, which means he must be at least 13th dimensional like me and Celestia," Noboru said, shocked, but it was replaced with a smile.

"This just got interesting," Noboru said with a smile.

Noboru and Hikari both looked at each other before dashing at each other, and their fists clashed before they sent a barrage of punches and kicks to each other before jumping back.

"Hell Fire wave," Noboru yelled, sending a torrent of red flames at Hikari.

"Holy Light beam," Hikari yelled, sending a beam of light at the flames, canceling it out.

'He used Holy Light; that means he isn't a demon,' Noboru said as his eyes narrowed.

"I can't use my true strength as it would bring too much attention from the Three Kingdoms' founding kings. If I used my Crimson state and Transcendent State, I might kill him. I'll just use the Crimson State," Noboru said, as the red aura that surrounds him increased and became more violent and aggressive, and his eyes turned red and the red flame symbol.

Noboru's eyes widened as he saw Hikari enter a similar stage, a Golden State and the direct opposite of his Crimson State.

"Oh, you thought only you can do this. No, you're not the only one. I'm not like those you faced before or your human family. I too can go into this state, the Golden State," Hikari said, as a Golden Flame surrounded him, and a Golden Symbol of a Sun appeared in the center of his forehead.

'Human, what does he mean? Humans, isn't he one? And why is he acting like both him and me aren't human? I know I am human; I was born with siblings that are humans, and I am the former prince of the Phoenix Kingdom. But it seems that he thinks otherwise. This is the first time I heard of the Golden State, and I'm sure the Crimson State isn't known to many. If he can enter a state similar to mine, does that mean he is related to me? Maybe he's a bastard. Maybe like me, he was treated with hatred but unlike me, who was needed to be a scapegoat for Meiyo and Kouki, maybe he was thrown out,' Noboru thought.

Noboru then rushed at Hikari and sent a kick to his face, but Hikari caught it and twisted it.

"Aaaahhhh," Noboru screamed before punching Hikari, sending him flying back and freeing his foot.

"Yes, kill him," Kouki yelled, and Noboru sent him a glare making Kouki quiet.

"Teach that disgrace his place," Meiyo yelled.

"Yeah, the disgrace Noboru killed my father, beat him," Hakashi Tanaka yelled, and like that, the entire classroom apart from Celestia was yelling it.

Noboru got angrier and angrier. He let out a huge red aura, making Hikari get on his legs and then grabbed his Black Star Blade and slashed at Hikari with his crimson red hell flames. "Hell Flames Slash," Noboru yelled, cutting Hikari's white and gold suit, but Hikari jumped back, and his wounds were healed by a golden aura.

"Oh, you're still standing?" Noboru asked mockingly.

"Don't talk so high and mighty, you abomination. You shouldn't exist. Father said so!" Hikari yelled as Noboru was confused.

'He says he isn't human but acts like I should know who he and his father are.' Noboru thought before he got an idea; his eyes shone red, and a golden ring appeared in it. Noboru had activated his Gensōgan. 'If he's related to me, he should have our clan's bloodline,' Noboru thought as he stared at Hikari, who didn't activate it.

"Look, I don't even know who you are, but I know you're a psycho acting as if you aren't human. What are you, a genetic experiment?" Noboru asked as he continued staring at Hikari.

"You should know me and my father. you an abomination?" Hikari asked as he sent a kick to Noboru's gut but it went through Noboru looking shocked.

"What is this power?" Hikari yelled.

"Wow, Shin must be stupid if he never educated his pet on our clan bloodline, the Gensōgan. Its first stage allows the user to make all attacks in its sights into illusions, no matter if one is a higher or lower being in dimensionality or anything really," Noboru said as he stood there with his hand in his pockets.

"I'm sick of your mouth." Hikari said before he disappeared and punched Noboru, but it went through him again.

"Stop using that! It's annoying," Hikari yelled and Noboru chuckled.

"Why should I?" Noboru asked.

"You'll pay," Hikari yelled.

"How? All your attacks are going through me," Noboru taunted.

"Stop Mocking me!" Hikari yelled.

"Mocking? No, I'm telling you the truth." Noboru said with a smirk.

Hikari then started throwing multiple punches, but all were going through Noboru.

"That's it; I will end you and this pathetic existence," Hikari yelled as he started to power up, his rage taking over. Noboru's eyes widened; this was familiar like when he went into his transcendent state.

'Shit, I'm in danger; his rage and power are like the one I experience in the transcendent state. That makes me think how powerful is the transcendent state? Well, I can't risk it, so I will just have to end him,' Noboru said as he took a stance.

'I will kill him,' Hikari yelled in his head, but he felt time stop; he saw a golden energy.

"No, my son, now is not the time," the voice said.

"Father, why? He is a disgrace," Hikari yelled. "I am your perfect creation, not him; he's just a threat ...."

"I said No! It's not time for you to kill him," the voice yelled.

'Damn it!' Hikari said before he calmed down and stopped going into the transcendent state; he looked to see dimensions both higher and lower rippling in the room.

"I give teacher Noboru wins," Hikari said and bowed.

"Very well; now, please stop Noboru, the battle is over, and Mr. Hikari, that power you used was incredible; there are still ripples. I can see why the three founding kings recommended you. Do you think you can repair the damage?" Sato said.

"It will take a few minutes for everything to heal," Hikari said as Noboru walked back to his seat.

"Ok," Sato said.

'He knew my weakness and exploited it. He is dangerous but also very strong; I need to kill him now!' Hikari thought as the dimension was repaired, and everyone was back to normal.

"Noboru-san, you did great," Celestia said with a smile.

"Yeah. I was so happy I was able to show that asshole what a true Chikara was like," Noboru said with a smirk.

"Hey, what did you say?" Meiyo and Kouki yelled.

"Oh, did you two finally wake up from your dream? Let me remind you. You guys aren't all that because some old man said so. In reality, you two are worthless and are scum." Noboru said with a smirk.

Meiyo and Kouki both glared at Noboru and Celestia who smirked.

'The day will come where we will get rid of you, disgrace,' Meiyo and Kouki both thought.

"That was a good fight, and we will be partners," Hikari said.

"Like I would be partners with an Asshole," Noboru said, and Celestia nodded.

Hikari then glared at him and Celestia before looking to see everyone was glaring at him, even Noboru's haters as they were jealous.

'Who is this lowly bastard that came up and showed me up and fought evenly with Noboru and almost overpowered him when it should be me?' Kouki thought as he started feeling hatred for this no-name commoner.

"Brother," Meiyo said as Kouki looked at her and nodded.

"We will end this," Meiyo said, and Kouki nodded.

"Yes, this will end soon, and Noboru and this Hikari will perish," Kouki said.

"Yeah, we are the ones of prophecy old man Kaito said so," Meiyo said.

"We are the ones that will lead the 3 kingdoms to greater glory," Kouki said, and both of them looked at Noboru, who was having a friendly chat with Celestia.

"We will get rid of him," both of them said.

"Yeah, this no-name is not better than us," Meiyo and Kouki both said looking

"The day will come soon when we will destroy them both. How dare they be more powerful than us, the chosen ones of faith," Meiyo and Kouki thought as they looked at Hikari.

"Okay, now that is over. Class is dismissed," Sato said, and class ended.

Noboru and Celestia walked out of the classroom and went to their rooms.

"Noboru-sama, are you okay?" Celestia asked.

"Yeah, but I was thinking. I was wondering who this Hikari character is. He can't be related to me; he doesn't have the Gensōgan, and he said his father called me an abomination," Noboru said.

"Yeah, and I can sense his hate towards you," Celestia said.

"Plus, he can't be related to me because if he was, he would be liked by my actual brother and sister, Kouki and Meiyo. And he would have the Gensōgan, but I think the main reason is that he is an asshole," Noboru said, and both he and Celestia chuckled.

"You are right about him being an asshole," Celestia said.

Meanwhile, at Phoenix Kingdom,

Shin Chikara, Niju Chikara, and Yami Chikara looked at their forces, who were transformed to look like inhumans—elves, demihumans, vampires, and more.

"I know all of you know your mission. This is important for the survival of the three kingdoms and taking down the fake Dragon Kingdom that was illegally annexed by my disgrace of a great-great-grandson, Noboru Chikara. You will all venture out to the Demon Empire and use this, the God's Hand Relic, which was given to me by a friend in exchange for a favor. This relic will allow you to kill the Demon Empire's queen, which will start a war between the Demon Empire and the Dragon Kingdom, all while their strongest, Noboru, is in the academy. We will block outside communication, which will make his kingdom fall and make the disgrace lose the leverage he has over us, Dimensium," Shin said as everyone cheered.

"Now that the fake Dragon Kingdom will be destroyed, the other three kingdoms will band together and defeat the Demon Empire after it's been weakened," Yami said as the forces cheered.

"The three kingdoms will be united under my rule, and the Chikara will control everything," Shin said to himself.

"But we can't forget Ayame Akatsuki; she won't respond well to her Noboru-Kun's hard work being destroyed," Yami said with fear as he remembered how she easily destroyed the three brothers with ease.

"It will have to be done. Noboru has messed up the world order we created. We will show we aren't scared of her anymore; our legacies depend on it," said Niju as the others cheered, and the plan began.

Back to Noboru,

Noboru and Celestia both lay down on their beds in their dorms.

"Noboru-Sama, thanks for standing up for us inhumans," Celestia said as she blushed.

"I couldn't just stand by and watch innocents being enslaved because of their race and species and not because they were stronger," Noboru said.

"But what do we do about the new kid, Hikari?" Celestia asked.

"Forget him; I will kill him the next time he shows his ugly face," Noboru said as he closed his eyes.

Celestia's eyes widened before she giggled and fell asleep.

"Noboru-san, thank you," Celestia said before she slept.
