Wear Daemon down.That’s the plan. That is what Razor’s juniors are supposed to do. They are supposed to focus on defense while they get in the ring with Daemon. They will block, dodge, parry, run, slide, dive, and use any other means necessary to prolong the engagement and make Dameon use more of his energy than what is needed.However, this didn’t work the way that Razor intended it to. Even after the fourth and the fifth opponent, Daemon didn’t show any signs of getting worn down. There are times when he can be seen to breathe a bit heavier than usual but, that’s not enough. It doesn’t show the kind of depletion of his stamina that he’s supposed to already be suffering through at this point.The reason for this is simple as well. Daemon is fighting with full efficiency. Every new opponent that enters the ring meets him head on and experiences his [Divergent Fist] on the first strike. Daemon modifies it every time but, basically, the first one to hit always contains this skill.Nobo

When the fight finished, the only thing left in the battlefield is silence. Not a single scholar dared to speak because, it doesn’t feel right to do so. Not in that seemingly sacred moment that Daemon is basking himself on. The spotlight belongs to him, as well as all of the attention from the scholars of his own hall.Then came a clap. A single clap tore through the silence. Then came a resounding echo of this as the scholars began to cheer and clap with all their might. Disregarding the fact that Razor is still lying on the ground, unconscious from a very powerful punch.“We now have a new fourth ranking scholar of the Scale Hall!” Naga began as she went up the arena. “Give it up for Daemon!”The cheers came harder this time around. With Naga giving them permission to do so, there’s no way that they’d hold back from making these intense cheers. Brought about by the incredible fight they witnessed. Not a single one but, a succession of it. Gracefully done by Daemon which ended on an

Murder.This act has always been seen as a taboo in society. Though there are some groups of people that see nothing wrong with the act of killing, the vast majority agrees that it is morally wrong. That’s why it is also a topic that cannot be easily brought up and, that’s why the whole conversation that Daemon’s having shouldn’t even exist. And yet it is.“W-What was that sir?” Daemon asked again. “I think I didn’t hear you right.”“Oh you heard me alright.” Desmond replied. “You’re just having trouble processing it but, I think you heard me just fine.”This confirms it. Daemon’s being asked to kill. He’s being asked about the act of killing and, how good he is with it. A teenager like him is given this question. And, unfortunately, Daemon doesn’t have the capability to lie to Desmond’s face.If he can’t do it under the state of [Calm Mind] then there’s zero probability of him pulling it off now that he doesn’t even have the skill anymore. He doesn’t have any form of defense. Leading

Daemon knows what he needs to do now. With the existence of a solution for him, all that’s left is for him to pave the way so that it can be used to its utmost efficiency. And with only three days to do so, he doesn’t have any time to waste.“Alright.” Daemon opened his system window. “Let’s see what we have for ourselves.”The estimate given by Astaroth to him means that he should expect a kind of change when he reaches [50] intelligence. That is now the goal. Currently, this is what his stats look like though.[Strength (Str): 25+5][Intelligence (Int): 25+5][Speed (Spd): 15+5][Luck (Lck): 15+5]His [Strength] has greatly gone up since this is the same stat that he prioritized increasing during the fights against the other scholars in the Arena. Thanks to the sub quest [The Alpha of the Pack], Daemon got a single status point for every victory he achieved during that day. Allowing him to earn ten points – all of which are placed on his strength.He also gained a couple more points

Daemon finished all of the fights within that day. The number of members within the group that he took down amounted to twenty. He had short breaks in between and during the lunch but, that’s basically saying he fought ten in the morning and ten in the afternoon.This whole ordeal had the blessing of Naga Kazem of course. Daemon wouldn’t have the courage to go there if his instructor didn’t allow him in the first place. In fact, this is the thing he fixed first thing in the morning. Calling up the number of his instructor through the telephone in his room.Needless to say, Miss Naga didn’t like the idea one bit. She thinks that it’s dangerous for Daemon to go to a den of wolves ruled by a lion. But Daemon insisted and said that he’d be fine. He also told her that he’s got a plan. This is all he needed to get Naga on his side. Allowing for the events that day to proceed as it is.The only problem he truly encountered in this setup of the fights are with the stronger ones on the list. T
