Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

Chiron froze.

Elder Joules saw the expression on his face and it made her smile. As far as she was concerned, he froze because he did not dare to.

Unknown to her, Chiron froze not because he did not dare but because, he could not believe what he had just heard.

Chiron could not believe that such a divine fruit just fell from heaven and landed right on top of his laps.

Chiron could not help but remember an old saying from his former world, "Work hard, or else, even if by luck, a divine fruit falls on you from heaven, it will crush you."

Right now, a divine fruit was making its way from the heavens. Heading right for the top of his head. However, Chiron was not like othres. He had made his preparations.

"Elder Joules! these words of YOURS that you declared in front of these new cultivators and the chief, do you dare to put them in a blood pact?"

"Huh!"

The entire class gasped. Even Chief Dona could not believe what he was hearing.

Little whispers started to go around, but most of it was filled with little giggles.

After all, they were here all along and had seen that without spirit energy, breaking through the Metal ore boulder was practically impossible.

"SILENCE!" Elders joules commanded and the students all kept quiet.

Elder Joules frowned, "I have to teach this boy a lesson. Imagine, a useless Tamashi. Seeking to make a blood Pact with me. I'll make him regret it." She thought to herself.

"Okay! but let's make the wager a little bit more interesting. After all, you look very confident in yourself. If you don't make it at least an inch into the boulder, You'll become the new janitor for the class, and afterwards, you'll become My son's personal slave."

"Huh!" The class gasped once more. Meanwhile, Cablen heard this and laughed haughtily. He could not help but think his mother was very smart.

Even chief Dona nodded at this. Although it seemed like just a normal bet, it would be wise to take the view of the full picture into account.

Chikitsa clan was a clan that placed emphasize on the rights of the first child. This was especially so if it was a son. After all, the first son carried the name of the father.

It was because of such traditions that even though Chiron was a Tamashi, the invitation to attend the academy was still sent to him.

If Chiron became slave to Cablen, his rights as a first son would effectively become dissolved. On top of that, it would be a big slap on Aleen's face.

Elder Joules said this words while taking a peep at Dona. She noticed he nodded at this and smiled. Her words were obviously in an effort to please him.

"So! do you dare?" Elder joules used Chiro's words back at him.

Chiron paused, and the look on his face showed that he was contemplating the offer.

Elder Joules had her eyes on him, "Or have you lost your confidence so soon!?"

In the eyes of everyone, those words were the catalyst that pushed Chiron into agreement.

Chiron nodded, "of course I dare."

Those words brought a smile to Chief Dona, Elder Joules, and of course to Cablen. In his mind, he had just acquired a new slave.

Nora immediately ran to her brother in attempt to persuade him from his obvious foolishness, but Chiron only smiled and patted her head like he normal did.

Elder Joules brought out a Contract. The rules for the contract were written down and the two of them signed it in blood. However, while the signing was taking place, no body noticed Chiron speaking sharply in a strange language. This was the Ancient language of runes, and it added a small extra letter in the contract.

After the making of the sword, Rune tongue was becoming easier for him.

The two of them signed it and the contract dissolved and entered their heads.

The moment the contract was signed, some of Cablen's friends already congratulated him on his new personal slave. While Cablen already thought of the different kind of inhumane tasks he was going to make Chiron do.

Nora could not help but have tears in her eyes. She was going to lose her loving brother.

"Okay! the contract has been signed. There is no going back now!" Elder Joules had a malicious smile on her face, "You may take the test now."

She pointed at the Boulder and Chiron nodded. He slowly and steadily made his way on top of the podium. However, the moment he stepped on it, the podium seemed to make cracking sounds from his weight.

This made the Dona and the elders that were watching frown. "Was the podium bad?" some thought.

However, Chiron did not stop, he stop the next step and then the next. Every step he took, was escorted by the loud creaking of the podium.

Nobody knew that the podium was not creaking because it was bad, but because of the weight of Chiron's sword.

After all, Devil's touch weighed a ton. That was a lot.

Then again, even if Chiron told them that his sword weighed that much, no one would believe him. It was easier on their minds thinking that the Podium was bad. Human beings had a habit of believing what they wanted to believe, and not what was true.

Chiron made it to the front of the boulder, and then slowly, he lifted up his sword in the air.

All eyes followed his every moment. They could see it clearly. He had not activated any spirit energy. After all, everyone knew he couldn't. As a Tamashi, his spirit energy was in chaos within his own body. There was no dantain to concentrate and centralize all that power.

And then in front of all eyes, Chiron dropped the sword.

*BAM!!!*

A loud sound was heard. The same sound that was heard every time some body hit the boulder without using Spirit energy.

Everybody already expected the recoil to throw Chiron back, but to their surprise, it didn't.

And then, Chiron whispered in a low tone, "Devil's touch! I permit it. You may drink a little of my..."
