NTR: I became a noble?

Xavier checked out Scheta's strikingly red body. It appeared as if the blood in Scheta's body was burning up in order to boost his strength.

...

The clash in between them was thrilling to watch. A punch from Scheta bled Rae's body but it healed before the next attack.

Scheta too had a similar level of regeneration. His punches and kicks seemed to have burst effect too, causing Rae to be flung away from the impact of the attack.

The battle was brutal and raw!

Xavier watching them from the distance could not help but have reverence and respect in his eyes for the man in front.

This was raw physical strength! They were fighting eachother without any sneaky or a mysterious spell.

'Who seems to be winning? From the looks of it, Rae is getting thrown out a lots.' Xavier thought, trying to guess the flow of the battle. He wanted to see Scheta win because that was the only way he could claim for the contribution points.

Seeing Rae continuously being thrown around, he rejoiced, hoping for this to end quickly.

'But at the same time, his strength and regeneration is also similar to that of Scheta's. Even though Scheta had already activated his secret technique.' Xavier thought, the attack from Rae's side did not seem to be any weaker than Scheta's.

Surprisingly, the rapid healing of the injury to their bodies were also on the same level, making it hard for Xavier to guess the winner.

'Did the curse spell not take affect? I didn't exactly know of its properties, but I was sure that the artifact would severely reduce his bodily functions.' Xavier recalled the time he successfully placed the curse on Rae.

The artifact should have decreased his strength by a lot. Low enough for Xavier to successfully kill Rae. But there seemed to be no affect on Rae, at least not from the physical strength.

'Did the curse not work or is it that the artifact did take effect but Rae still retained this much of his strength...' Xavier was shocked as he came to a terrifying conclusion.

He could not guess the level of strength Rae had to be affected by the artifact and still retain such high strength.

If what he thought was a really a right guess, then his plan to fish in troubled waters was undoubtedly a failure.

'This seems to be ending!!' Xavier looked in surprise, Rae seemed to be on his last legs.

"I admit. The strength that you have shown is indeed worthy of being famed. The Arista family is famed for correct reasons." Rae genuinely gave a complement to Scheta.

The physical capabilities shown by Scheta was undoubtedly the highest from all the opponents Rae had fought with as of yet.

"Heh! You seem to be quite happy, even after knowing that you would die sooner." Scheta laughed with a sadistic grin on his face. He was very sure of his victory.

Now that Rae appeared to be exhausted, Scheta was already thinking of how to dispose of Rae's dead body.

"Me? Die ?" Rae appeared shocked, listening to Scheta's bizzare words.

"Are you still bluffing? Do you think I would not know of the regeneration speed of a level four warrior? Your temporary strength must be waning by now, no?" Scheta laughed with a smile which seemed to say that he knew what Rae was hiding.

He knew that Rae was bluffing, after exhausting so much energy in the battle, there was no way that Rae could fight against Scheta anymore.

And even that strength was comparable to Scheta's, making him realise that Rae was using a very powerful elixir or an artifact to temporarily enhance his strength.

The temporary raise of strength which was going to end, safely concluding that he would win yet another battle.

"Hahahaha" Rae laughed, uncontrollably!

"Indeed indeed! My additional strength!!" Rae laughed, thinking that it was understandable for Scheta to assume that Rae was using additional substance to dangerously boost his strength.

Scheta dashed to Rae, unwilling to talk anymore. Rae dodged Scheta's attack, grappled Scheta's body and choked him from the back.

Using his dangerously high strength and endurance, Rae lifted Scheta in a princess carry before bringing him down on his knee, breaking Scheta's spine with a cracking noise!!

"No way!!!" Xavier uttered in shock. He was surprised, shocked that Rae broke Scheta's spine with such ease, almost crippling his opponent with one move.

Rae turned around, glancing at Xavier, just from the sound of the words he uttered in shock just now, Rae was able to sense him.

Honestly, Xavier was scared after the scene just now. But Rae had noticed his presence which made tempted to go and fight it out against Rae, claiming the kill on both Rae and Scheta.

Since, he was found out by Rae anyways, then he might as well just go on and try his luck otherwise, he would be targeted by a level four warrior after that guy recovers.

"It's either now or never!!!" Xavier muttered as he rushed to the scene of battle. He was full of strength and he believed that he had a good shot at killing both of the level four warriors.

"Ooooooo" Xavier shouted using all his energy, risking his body to kill Rae in one shot. As for Scheta, Xavier believed that it would be easy to finish him after he gets done with Rae.

Splurt!!

Blood splashed from the brutal clash, remains of bloody curly black hair splattered.

"Ohh you are still alive?? I thought you would have given in to the pain. Your spine must be hurting real bad no? Let me relieve you of the pain."

Rae said looking at Scheta who had already recovered from all the injuries, though the strength in his body seemed to have dissipated after this final recovery.

Rae pulled out a small fist sized bead from under his shirt, the bloodstone was placed closed to his heart. Just in case he needed to use the artifact in emergency.

Since, it was his first time figuring out a level four warrior, not to mention it was a famed Arista warrior.
