As I was trying my best to pave my way to the class a brawl had already broken out. This type of situation have happened earlier, when Iris came to class to see me. But it was slightly different, earlier it was because that time it looked like that they like Iris and were frowning at her but right now, it felt different.

"Don't you dare…!" Roy yelled and lunged towards the other person.

The moment I was able to enter the front lines I saw Roy charging at someone. What was he thinking attacking a person straight ahead? There are many ways to counter attack that type of attacks. 

"…"

The unknown person made Roy stagger back when he slammed his fist into Roy's shoulder. See, this was one of the ways. Fighting is not all about brawn, some brain is also needed.

"GAAAHHH…!" he cried yet he didn't back down. He continued throwing punches at him. But a war cannot be won through sheer anger or dedication. The other party was fluently evading Roy's attacks. It seemed like the person standing against Roy wasn't even taking this seriously. 

Roy swung a roundabout punch. If that would hit it perfectly it would be a game over for him only if it connected perfectly. The other seemed to have already analyzed his attack so bent backwards a little evading the punch by millimeters and felt his knuckles swish past his nose.

All of the chairs and desks were strewn about. Only a little circular figure was made nearby, creating a small space for them both to fight in. A ring was formed inside a class.

"Hey, who do you think would win?"

"Seeing Roy charging, I think he will win." I heard someone from the crowd murmuring about the fight.

"No way, I think the other person will win."

"You want to bet?" 

"UFFF…!" Roy's nose started bleeding.

"S-shouldn't we stop them now…?" seeing Roy bleed the discussion from betting on who will win changed to stopping them.

"W-why don't you g-go?" few of the spectators though of stopping the fight but it was only a thought. Deep inside even if they won't show it on the surface they are still thinking of continuing this fight. This is an entertainment for them.

Roy stepped back a few steps. He came to a sudden standstill and took a deep breath. For a moment there everything froze. No one spoke a word and were just watching Roy and the unknown person standing.

Roy dashed and tried to give round kick but failed miserably as the opponent caught his leg before it could land.

"Tsk!" Roy clicked his tongue and released his leg with force. Backing up again.

They both just stared at each with daggering eyes. None of them took their gaze from each other. Even if I don't want to I could feel a tense atmosphere forming up here.

Roy again started moving forward but this time it felt like he had some kind of plan. The other person didn't move at all and just waited there.

Seeing both of them looked like two scorpions inside a single bottle, ready to attack.

Roy charged up to him suddenly. He threw his forearm like an offensive lineman blocking a defensive back, but the other person slipped to his side quickly, pushing Roy's elbow down and away, caught his head and rolled Roy on the floor.

Whoa, that was fast.

Roy was about to fall to the ground when he collided with the edge of the table and smacked his head. I'm sure it hurt a lot, adding to it he must be bleeding now.

"What just happened?!"

"Did you just see that?!"

"It was just like in movies…!"

Yes, that move he made just now was quite good. The way he slipped on the side and throwing him down on the floor, it happened to fast. Seeing Roy's face right now, even he don't know what happened to him.

The person standing against Roy was making a fool of Roy in this battle. He appeared to be having fun with Roy. While Roy appeared to be out of breath, the other one was not. Or so it appeared.

Even Roy must be feeling it.

But Roy, on the other hand, did not appear to be as readily swayed. Several drips of blood were trickling from his right eye. He tried cleaning it away with his bare hands, which was a bad idea. He might become contaminated. Yet he did it either way. Was it because of his ego that he didn't back down even after that injury or was it something else?

Everyone thought that after this Roy wouldn't move now but rather he charged towards the other person. Even I was surprised a little seeing this. Which made me think, does he really don't want to lose or it's something else?

This before Roy could outstretch his arm for a punch the person against him threw out his own fist in a fast jab making Roy lose his balance. But I think that was what Roy wanted all along.

Roy was moved back a little and even lost some of his ground but he didn't completely lose it and still stood his ground. He grunted and regained his balance again. This surprised the other person a little bit and this made him flinch a little which was a bad move on his part. Because of that he made an opening for Roy to attack.

Roy gave a slight smirk.

Roy didn't let go of this opportunity and outstretched his left arm to which the opponent reacted. The other person took both of his hand blocking his eyesight and tried blocking the blow from the left side while he was trying to balance himself.

*Smack*

It was perfect hit. The opponent slid back.

The opponent made a basic yet the most important mistake. In a fight never close or never let your eyesight get blocked. When he tried to save himself from the attack, in the process he blocked his eyesight. Roy took this slime opportunity to surprise attack him from the other side.

The opponent fell on the ground while Roy was still showing his dominance. But for not too long.

"Now you have done it…"

The person on the ground sprang up and charged straight towards Roy. Roy attempted to avoid it, but his opponent was too swift for him. He moves and attacks in a way that is not typical of a high school kid. While fighting, he has a professional attitude. Perhaps he was trained when he was a youngster.

Roy had already been struck in the blink of an eye. It was a solid hit. Normally, a person hit by that type of jab would have already been on the ground, but examining Roy's I believe that his build is far superior to that of a typical high school student.

But that wasn't the end of the story. Roy's opponent kept pounding him as though he's a punching bag. At this moment, the game was completely one-sided. He kept hitting him until he realized Roy was bleeding too much and needed assistance. 

"Someone take him to the medical room," he said as he stepped back and sat on one of the chairs closest to him.

For a split second, everything was silent, and everyone's gaze was riveted on Roy, the fallen man. He was breathing, but it was uncoincidental. I'm curious what happened to cause all of this to occur. This is not a normal fight between students. Even if he hold something against him this seemed to excessive on Roy's side.

Getting a head injury is not a slightest bit of a joke. Yet, he continued.

"What are you waiting for?! Do you want him to fell unconscious?" he seemed furious. I guess he must be, since if any teacher saw this, it would be terrible for both him and us. The spectators might as well be held responsible for not putting an end to this brawl.

I was also one of the spectators, but I don't really care if fell unconscious. Even if a teacher saw this, the blame will fall on all of us.

But, gosh, watching him like this gave me a tinge of satisfaction deep within.

"I- w-will take him," someone from the crowd said.

A boy emerged from the crowd. It was Noah who stepped in.

Everyone changed their gaze from the fallen person to the person will help Roy.

He tried picking up but his body weight was too much for him alone. But seeing him try a few more cam forwards but they were all the ones who I have seen following Roy most of the times. 

Well I guess this solves it. I walked towards my seat ignoring all what happened right now. But I noticed something. Everyone was staring at me but this time it was something different than usual. Normally I would ignore it like I have done it till now but this doesn't feel right.

No, it was not particularly at me but they were intently gazing at what was right behind me. Observing gazes I concluded that it was not just at me but at something behind me. 

I turned around to see what it was and…
