The Mech Lord

"Stay back," Leo muttered to Amelia as he took a step ahead.

He had just scanned the girl, and she turned out to be at Lv 6 Awake. Stronger than Leo, but still weaker than the guy in front.

If that was the case, he might as well be the one to get his ass kicked. After all, he didn't think he could just stand there, and see her get beaten up.

"Are you finally up to it?" The person smiled as he looked at Leo. It was very clear that he couldn't wait to beat the hell out of him.

Leo began to circulate his energy using the Niverian Kicking Arts. He was warming up, and was determined to land a hit or two at least before getting his ass handed over.

But, before the two could head inside to settle the matter, Ronnie intervened, "Are you really going to be a coward, and fight someone with an injury?"

His words were loud, and he mockery on his face was pretty evident as he walked up to Leo and pulled his jacket off of his back, revealing his missing arm.

The person immediately frowned at Ronnie's action. But, he didn't dare to be too harsh in his rebuttal, "This is between us. We will decide what we will do with it. You don't have any right to interfere in between us."

"What a piece of Hypocrite, you really have no shame. But, what would you expect from a Graylock's dog…" Ronnie said with a smile, and it left the guy gnashing his teeth in anger.

"Yeah! You challenged my brother knowing of his injury. And, when he refused, you called him a coward. Do you even have a bit of shame in you?" Amelia berated the guy as well. She had already started to hate him.

"Yeah! Let him heal first!"

"You hypocrite!"

"Graylock Dog!"

"He is just a bully!"

The people around, most of whom included the students of the Academy, began to rain down curses on him. It seemed that the guy was not popular.

"Fine! You can take your time! But, at the end of this month, I won't listen to any of these! You better not run away, Silver!" The guy roared in anger seeing that the people had turned against him.

In the end, he gave Leo a glare. And, turned to look at Ronnie with a frown. It was as if he was noting down the incident. After that, he finally left.

'Well, I am safe for now,' Leo was finally relieved. But, not entirely. He had time until the end of the month it seemed.

With the end of the commotion, the crowd finally dispersed.

"Thank you, for helping out." Amelia turned towards Ronnie with a smile. It was one which she had never shown to Leo, even when he had helped her a lot of time. The treatment sure was different for some reason.

"It was easy," Ronnie winked at her, and gave a cheesy smile. He then turned to look at Leo, and a silence ensued between them for some reason.

"He is Ronnie Lancaster, your classmate. His father is one of the three Marshals alongside our father. We are family friends." Amelia immediately whispered to Leo, and gave him an introduction on the guy.

"Do you know Serina? He is twins with her, but unlike her, he is a more on the Glorian side." She further added.

Serina and Ronnied were mixed breed. Their father was a Glorian while mother had Vampire origins. But, there were only one in a million instances where you would see a mutation in the child, and they would go on to be equally affected by both the parents. Hence, most of the time, it was that a child was heavily affected by one parent's genes. And, shared a heavy resemblance to only one of them.

This was the case with both Serina and Ronnie here.

"Umn...are you two done?" Ronnie asked as he looked at the two still whispering.

"Should I introduce myself once again?" He smile, and extended his hand, "I am Ronnie Lancaster."

Leo shook his hand, and nodded, "Thank you for your help."

'Arthur, scan him..' Leo was a bit curious, he felt that the guy should definitely not be simple if he had such deterrence on that person, who was targeting him.

[Scanning…]

And within a few seconds, the list of the guy's stats were brought out in Leo's head.

[Showing results…]

Name: Ronnie Lancaster

Race: Glorian

Level: 18 Elite

Skill: ???

Comprehensive Assessment: [E+]

Leo's face twitched a bit.

This person was freaking strong.

[Skills three color rank above needs to be seen in action, only then could it be accurately determined when [Scan] is used on people of Higher Level.] Arthur's voice rang out in Leo's head.

Even though Arthur couldn't determine his skill, one thing was made clear by him. This person skill had to be at Red rank or maybe even higher.

"Don't mention it," Ronnie shook his head and laughed. "Well, I will see you in the Academy. I am a bit busy now." He pointed towards the gym behind him.

With that he waved his hand to the two and turned around to leave.

But, he suddenly stopped mid way, and turned his head to look at Leo, "The rest of the guys have all returned from the field trip, Graylock as well. He won't let go of this opportunity when you are in this condition."

He then continued to walk ahead.

The warning from Ronnie's side was very clear, and it made Leo frown. He understood that this was just the beginning. There were bigger people, who would be gunning for him just because he had a Silver in his name.

It seemed being rich and gaining authority had their downsides as well.

As Ronnie left, Amelia turned towards Leo, "You should have beaten that guy up! That guy is only Lv 10 in the ranking boards. I have seen it. And, even if he is a bit stronger, you have your spear skills.."

But, she instantly regretted saying that, she had once again forgotten that Leo was missing a hand now. There was no way for him to use a spear in his current condition.

And, even if we let that go, Aiden was nearing Lv 10, not Leo. For some reason, Leo seemed to have a reset button hit on his new body. He was only a Lv 2 now.

If he was anywhere near Lv 10, he could have just knocked that guy out in a single kick.

"I...am..sorry.." Amelia apologized, in a light voice. Her face had turned once again extremely depressed, and her eyes were glistening.

"It's fine," Leo shook his head, and turned around to walk away from the place with Amelia following beside.

'You heard that Arthur, I am willing to do anything to not lose. Can you make it happen?' He asked inwardly.

[Well, it depends on your will. If you don't have fainting episodes, I can give you at least a 50% chance.]

'You stinky guy, give me a bit more..' Leo retorted with a sigh, and then open the inheritance book in his mind before finally coming back to one of the pages that he had visited the most in the past few days.
