Amon, The Legendary Overlord

Knowing it was a mother protecting her cub changed the way they saw the fight.

Ariel didn't speak, but her actions spoke over a thousand words. With her psychic power, Ariel changed the terrain to be at the wolves' disadvantage, and she levitated stones and hurled them toward the wolves.

Amon moved too. With his body engulfed in crackling lightning as he ran toward the wolves, it took only one kick for each wolf to send them flying high in the sky.

The lioness who saw this was startled, so she used her body to protect the cub while looking warily at Amon.

Unlike before, the power Amon displayed was far superior to that of wolves. It was too big a gap, so big she didn't have the confidence to go against him. But Amon just turned and walked back.

Ariel saw this and smiled.

Seeing the lioness protecting the cub reminded her of the time when her mother did the same for her... Even though the aggressor was her own father.

"Let's go," Amon said as soon as he returned. He wasn't desperate enough for kills to need to attack the lioness.

As for the wolves...

*BOOM! BOOM!*

The wolves' bodies dropped to the ground, showing no sign of moving.

"What about the bodies of the wolves?" Maisa asked while pointing.

"Let the lioness use them as food," Amon said coldly.

"Oh..." Maisa opened her mouth, then she laughed without caring.

"Thanks." Amon didn't need to do that, and Ariel was aware that she acted on her own, and knowing that Amon still supported her choice made her happy.

Amon gave a small smile in response before turning back to his indifferent expression.

When they left, the lioness was confused. It was not common for humans to act like this, she herself had the experience of being hunted by humans, so she knew very well that the behavior of these humans was strange.

Only after more than 10 minutes did the lioness relax a little, but still, she cautiously took one of the wolves' bodies to eat and feed her cub.

Placing her hands behind her head, Barbara smiled slightly, "It's so easy these days. Aside from that hideous monster, the rest of the animals aren't very dangerous."

"If I remember right, that could be the lesser beings of the 'plague'," Ariel said thoughtfully.

"What is that?" Maisa looks at her.

"Mm." Ariel tries to remember, and, when she finally can remember, she says: "I read about it in a book, the plague are actually erectus. They did something that caused them to be punished and turn into their worst nightmare while they were banned from the ancestral planet of humans. Since then, erectus have been hunting humans with the aim of eating them and transforming themselves into a hominid."

"I had no idea such a thing could happen." Julia asked, "Why is this historical subject not talked about at school? It makes no sense to not talk about it, I think."

"From what I've read, they fear humans will find out what the erectus have done." Ariel sighs: "You know, from what I've read, there are a lot of foolish humans who are capable of even driving their own race to extinction. But I only had access to that at the Tang grandparents' house. I was very young at the time and couldn't understand most of the stuff written in the book, but even now, I remember Grandma Tang explicitly telling me not to talk about it openly."

"... That's horrible. I am curious to know what they did that was so horrendous as to end up turning into that hideous creature if that's real," Barbara said with a certain amount of fear.

"Whether it's real or not, I don't know. I just know, when I saw it as a little girl, I cried a lot." Ariel said, "I was scared. It was unpleasant to imagine this as a child, the possibility of all humans being punished for something other humans did. That's when Grandma Tang found me and comforted me, but for the first time, she also said in a not-so-soft voice, for me to be very careful when talking about it."

Barbara, who saw somethings flying, that looked very similar to drones but much more sophisticated, whispered in fear, "You said that now, but we must be being filmed, right?"

"Oh, about that." She smiled, "Don't worry, nothing I said was heard. Didn't you see the hand gestures I made? That was something I learned from Grandpa Tang. It's a unique sound isolation spell I can use with my genes. Nothing and no one outside the range of this isolation spell around us will hear."

"The Tang grandparents must be have been pretty amazing," Barbara said in awe.

"…" Amon didn't respond to that comment. He knew more than anyone how amazing his grandparents are. He also knew that it isn't 'have been', but 'they are amazing', since they are alive; however, few should know this fact.

When the two returned to the room where the broadcast was being shown, they were shocked to discover that it was a group of five students who managed to overcome the plague. But, mostly, they were blown away by the performance of Amon Tang, the 17-year-old student who showed a power far beyond what other students could reach.

"How can such a genius come from Country Z...?" Asked a teacher from Country S as he muttered uncomfortably. Even the best students in his country were not on the same level as Amon. What he showed was far beyond the capacity of the proclaimed geniuses of Country S. Even the girls performed satisfactorily, although they were not on the same level as Amon. Still, the petite girl with ample breasts was exceptional as well.

The leading schools were again watching Amon's struggle unfold with shock and excitement.

Such a genius came from their planet, and even though it's a pity that he's not their country, it still brought pride as a native of this planet.

Five hours later...

"It's almost over," Julia commented.

"Mm, let's go back." Maisa said with a tired sigh, "We killed a lot of animals and accumulated a lot of points.

Ariel smirked, "I can't believe we're not first in rank."

"Fair enough, Amon must be the first," Barbara said with conviction.

"It does not matter." Amon said disinterestedly, "If that is indeed the case, the rest of the tournament will be disappointing."

"Amon, you need to understand that you've improved a lot and were already on another level before you even got stronger. So you can't expect to find any challenge here, but…." Julia smiled, then added, "If you go to Golden Phoenix University, there will be many geniuses capable of competing against you."

"I know that." Amon said indifferently, "I'm not saying there isn't, but that would be another time. What I'm thinking about is now."

"Well…" Julia couldn't argue with that.

.

After they left the mysterious realm, many people looked at them with shock and awe.

Some were skeptical as they didn't see what Amon and girls did, just heard it from other people, while others who did were amazed since the power they demonstrated was beyond expectations.

They weren't even favorites to win, but suddenly they became the center of attention.

"So many people are already here..." Maisa muttered, feeling a little shy. After all, there were hundreds of people, and she could feel that many of them were looking and pointing in their direction.

While waiting, apparently, they were the first to leave the mysterious realm.

"You five, come here." The one who called for them was Professor Flávia.

Beside her was her friend Nanda Aguiar.

"Let's go." Amon walks toward her, his expression neutral.

"Mm." The girls nodded and went to where teacher Flávia was.

"Beautiful, sexy, handsome, and hot!"

"Amon!"

"Beautiful, sexy, handsome, and hot!"

"Oh?" Amon stopped when he heard that his name was mentioned amidst what a group of girls was screaming.

"Amon, I want to marry you!!"

"Heavens! Who doesn't want him?"

"Amon, look at me!"

Maisa, Julia, and Barbara's eyes turned fierce.

"I know they were filming, but was everyone able to see what was going on?" Barbara didn't believe it would be like that.

"Maybe, but I think there's another possibility." Ariel smiled a little.

"Oh, and what would that possibility be?" Julia looks at her.

Ariel replied, "Someone leaked Amon's video."

"…"

Okay, they didn't think of something that simple. In fact, after hearing that, they start to wonder if they would be so dumb as to not think of something that simple.

But then they heard Ammon say, "I believe only teachers and important people had access to what was going on in the mysterious realm."

"Yeah, yeah, that's it. Now that you say it, I believed it was something like that too. I didn't even think they might leak something like the video of us fighting in the mysterious realm," Maisa said.

"Maisa!"

"Julia!"

"Ariel!"

"Barbara!"

Some young men even shouted their name, but they were quite cautious for some reason, not daring to say anything disrespectful.

"Haha, Amon put a lot of fear in them." Ariel laughed out loud.
