MIGHT AS WELL BE OP

Chapter 145: Rules?

Anthony felt the space fold around him as he stepped through the portal.

Anthony had arrived at his ʼsupposed locationʼ.

The atmosphere here was stained in utter chaos, destruction, death as not a single sign of vitality existed here.

Even those that tended to have vitality were already corrupted as they were no longer considered ʼlivingʼ.

Dread gnawed at anybody who stood here at this moment because they knew only one thing could live in such an environment.

The Demons and whatever was stained with their chaos.

Anthony felt space twist as about five students instantly appeared next to him.

The five of them also getting the feel of the environment they were transported to.

Then suddenly their face turned dark as the confidence radiating of their body earlier on in the Academy suddenly vanished.

Although they had fought demons during the Academy invasion, that was on their own turf.

Entering the enemies territory was a completely separate matter in itself.

The chaos here was off the charts.

Chaos on its own tends to always corrupted mana whenever it came in contact with it making it chaotic.

Chaotic mana is very hard to control and to use during battle.

This made the ability called Mana Zone become nothing but a decoration to most.

So everyone has no choice but to rely on the mana they have in their core and donʼt dare to try and replenish from the atmosphere.

Their only hope would be their potions.

Even being in the presence of chaos for too long could lead to corruption, although the process can be slow or fast depending on the concerntration.

Of course mana can be used to purge any sign of corruption, but doing this waste too much mana that should have been channeled into an attack or defence.

Of course there are outrageous geniuses that have developed skills and techniques that allows them to use chaotic mana without too much problems.

But it was very difficult getting such techniques, but, getting them was one thing, using them was another thing.

There is a reason why only geniuses could even create them in the first place.

But chaotic mana arenʼt only caused due to chaos.

It is also caused due to intense collision of mana and elements like during war.

Mana in this state becomes harder to control, but at least without the risk of corruption.

As Anthony kept looking around, the five voices sounded.

”Damn it, how can the Academy send us to our deaths”

”Is the Academy going crazy”

”Shit, we might be able to escape, but thatʼs if we donʼt die before we can even activate the escape mechanism”

”This is just too much, how are supposed to survive here”

They spoke amongst themselves as they ignored Anthony like he wasnʼt there.

But it wasnʼt their fault, the ʼtestʼ was indeed too much for most, golden generation or not.

Direct teleportation to the demonʼs land, that was no different than a death certificate being granted.

But their mistake was thinking that the Academy was responsible for this.

Anthonyʼs divine intelligence working wonders as he deducted that his current location wasnʼt the Academyʼs supposed location in less than two seconds.

Anthony looked at the students who were still arguing back and forth.

ʼThe Academyʼs wrist watch wonʼt work hereʼ

Anthony concluded as he looked at heʼs.

Then he said to the five students who were there with him.

”This isnʼt the time to complain, you should know better that the Academy wonʼt send us here, this is either a move from the Demons or the forsaken cult”

Then they noticed Anthony as he spoke..

They were stunned as they saw him.

They couldnʼt believe they were standing beside him this entire time but they never noticed.

Then they heaved a sigh of relief as the rank one was standing right beside them.

With this, their chances of survival just shot through the roof.

”What do you mean that this is a move from the demons or forsaken cult”

One of them asked Anthony.

Anthony just shook his head at this question and said.

”Iʼm too lazy to explain, besdies Iʼm sure the Academy wrist watch wonʼt be functioning anymore at this moment, so donʼt pin your hopes on it, I wonʼt be saving any of you if you court death”

They frowned as they heard this, they didnʼt know the basis of Anthonyʼs words, but this was their lives they were talking about here.

Although they wish this would be a lie from Anthony, but what did he stand to gain from this.

Besides even if what Anthony said had a slim possibility of being the truth, that slim possibility would cost them their lives.

Were they willing to pay?, obviously not.

But as always, dumb people exist everywhere just like the air we breathe.

”Why should we believe you, donʼt think because you are rank 1 and you think we would suddenly believe you and make you the leader of this party”

”You might be something big in the Academy, but outside it you are nothing, know your place lowly human just like your predecessor, no matter how you cling to your rank, at the end day you are just human, a specie at the bottom of the world”

One of the student instantly shot out these words from his mouth in rapid succession like a machine gun.

The other four looked at him like he was an idiot.

They were discussing their lives here and he was discussing about the outside world.

Beside what does a racial standing have to do with absolute power.

The four of them never dared to believe Anthonyʼs power was a fake or anything like that.

Although they looked down on humans in general, when they meet the strong ones they dare not show the same attitude.

Anthony looked at the clown who just spewed something unrelated to the matter at hand.

Then he said with a sigh.

”I do not care about being leader of the party, besides who even said I was going to be in the party in the first place when I have nothing to gain”

Anthony shook his head as he said this.

As soon as Anthony was done speaking, the boyʼs aura exploded out of his body as his mana rank showing that of a beginner B ranker burst forth.

”I donʼt care what you say you lowly human, you who use your familyʼs power to clear an impossible mission then flaunt around in a false power you do not have”

”Knell before me human, do not let me repeat myself”

The boy said as his aura stayed as strong as his stupidity.

The other four didnʼt intervene, they didnʼt even know each other, or even the boy, so they just watched wondering how Anthony would deal with this.

ʼIt seems I finally encountered an arrogant young masterʼ

Anthony thought as he looked at the boy.

Anthony had not the strength to exchange words with him.

He wonʼt be playing the useless cliché scene for anyone to watch.....read.

Before any of the four watching could react, they a heard a bang sound followed by warm blue liquids splashing all over their bodies before they could even react.

The boy was dead and his blood has splashed over them.

Anthony had controlled space within the boyʼs body.

With just a minor command over space, the boyʼs body exploded, erupting his innards everywhere.

Anthony looked at the boyʼs remains then turned around and left by simply walking.

It was against the rules to kill a fellow student of the Academy.

And Anthony has just broken that rule.

But did Anthony care? Nope.

The school wonʼt antagonise the most talented being they had ever witnessed over a dead idiot they didnʼt even know.

Anthony knew this, he knew even if the entire thing was to take a hug turn, the Dean would still rule in his favour.

Power was simply everything here.

Rules? Bend them with power.
