《Aatrox, A God King in a Modern World.》8 - Bet
Advertisement
Arriving at the park with his family, Aatrox looked around and found the place interesting. Several families of mortals were here to pass the time, some with baskets full of food, some playing ball, some just breathing in the fresh air.
This kind of relaxing place made Aatrox feel peaceful. His family set up a picnic spot.
"I'm going for a walk." Aatrox said as he started to leave.
Seeing him leave, Amanda looked at Alex with a worried look. After all, her son hadn't yet recovered the memories, she thought something might happen.
Alex looked at Amanda and signaled her to be calm. "He needs this." He said.
Walking through the park, Aatrox stepped into the trees and began to appreciate the surroundings. When he was a God-King, they never had that kind of tranquility. His Darkin Blade kept always saying in his head to kill and war.
* swoosh * * shiiin *
Aatrox heard a noise of something moving at great speed. Following where the sound came from, Aatrox found a group of people dressed in wrestler's clothes making a circle around two people who were fighting.
Interested to know what was going on, Aatrox climbed a nearby tree and sat on a branch to watch.
Looking down, Aatrox saw that the two people who were fighting were having a sword duel. By their garments, they looked without the same sect.
As they fought, Aatrox observed his technique and sword handling and couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment. They didn't hold the sword efficiently, it used too much force, hindering its handling.
After the spar was over, Aatrox was preparing to leave when he heard a voice from the old man who seemed to be their master.
"I wonder why you disapprove, bystander." Said the old man as he looked at Aatrox getting ready to get off the tree.

Surprised that someone noticed him, after all, living thousands of years as a struggling God-King, his body developed habits that unconsciously erased his presence.
Aatrox looked at the old man and was surprised, his internal energy was much stronger than that of a normal human. 'I believe that at my current strength level I can beat him in technique, but in strength he is superior. How interesting ... 'he thought.
"The technique they use is very flawed. Their position in a real fight would create so many openings before they could even think of fighting a real expert, they would already be dead." Said Aatrox with disinterest.
These two were his two youngest students, of course, they have the most flawed technique. But even though they were the youngest, at the last state tournament they had made it to the quarterfinals. This year they would probably reach the semi or even the end of their age.
The technique he teaches was taught to him by his father, who in turn was taught to him by his grandfather. His martial arts school was one of the most respected in the city of Red River, he wouldn't accept a 15-year-old boy coming to talk badly about his technique. This is worse than slapping your face.
"Good, good ... So if you're that good, why don't you come and show my students how you do?" Asked the old man. Before Aatrox could answer he said. "Xayane, lend your sword to him and Jimmy, you will be his opponent, I want to see if your actions can support your words." Said the old man while watching Aatrox.
Seeing what was unfolding, Aatrox didn't worry. He understands how important martial arts are to those who practice them, but that doesn't change the fact that he thinks they are bad.

"I never refused a fight, today won't be the first time." Said Aatrox as if this was nothing to him as he took the sword from Xayane girl.
Even being angry at the boy who offended his technique while handing him the sword, Xayane whispered in his ear. "Watch out, Jimmy is one of the master's direct disciplines."
Aatrox was surprised by her warning and showed him a grateful smile. "Don't worry, I don't believe anyone but that old man can hurt me here." He said back to her quite naturally.
Xayane interpreted this as arrogance and regretted warning him. 'I hope he takes a beating and regrets his actions. I have never seen him in municipal championships, let alone in state championships. It must be just a toad at the bottom. ' She thought as she snorted at him.
Aatrox realized that she didn't understand him, but also didn't bother to explain, he was more excited than he thought he would be after all is his first fight in this world.
Meanwhile, other disciples commented. "Do you think he will win?" Asked a chubby man.
"Of course not, look at him, he may be handsome, but his body is very thin, Jimmy is known to be one of the strongest brutes only." Said another disciple.
"Hehe, I think Jimmy can beat this guy just by using his sword foible." Said another boy.
"Too bad, he's very cute. I hope he doesn't lose too much ugly." Said a short girl.
"Let's make a bet! I bet $ 5 that this boy won't last a minute against Jimmy." Said a boy with glasses.
"I bet it won't last even thirty seconds!" Said another boy.
"I bet..."
Seeing these people betting and thinking he was going to lose made Aatrox's blood run faster. Unbeknownst to him, a smile escaped his face.
Looking at the smile on the boy's face, the old man was a little suspicious, but his confidence in his subject is greater than his distrust of the boy.
"Jimmy, be careful." The old man can't help but say.
"I don't need this against someone weak like him." Jimmy said with a smug look on his face.
