[Illusion will end in 8 Seconds]
The real Trevor smiled at the sight of Tara falling for trick.
He was already on the countdown so he did not need the system notification to remind him.
*
"It's a shame. He should have forfeited from the match...."
"At this rate, he might not participate in the contest which means he will be sold,"
"There's just no recovering from this. And I actually bet on him."
"Ha. Are you stupid! That is Tara whiteley. He is several classes ahead of that kid. What made you think the slave could win?"
"Yeah, didn't you see? He did not take the matches seriously at all. He managed to get to the final match without breaking a sweat. Are you just stupid or what?"
*
Trevor dashed as fast as he could towards Tara right after he had tossed his illusion a distance away.
With the scroll magic, he had made a magic claw to cover his hands.
When he reached Tara, he swiped at his back ; causing three claw marks to appear on Tara's back. The attack had managed to shread his school uniform and deep into his flesh; making him to scream in pain.
To those watching from above, all they saw was Tara walk towards Trevor who had just risen after his fall and suddenly receiving claw marks on his back.
After the s***h, Tara immediately knew what was going on. "And to think I would fall for the same trick as that brat!" he growled as he turned to punch whatever was behind him. Alas, his fist just passed through the air, hitting nothing.
Another claw mark appeared on his back again, causing him to scream again. The marks had now formed an X on his back. He was so angry that he wasn't thinking straight. All he wanted to do in that moment was shread the bastard doing it.
*
"What is he doing? Why is he attacking the air like that?"
"Haven't you seen the claw marks on his back? That slave must have pulled off some trick again!"
"Could he be fighting also be fighting an illusion?"
"Haha, that boy is done for! He dared to play the same trick on the whiteleys, I'd be surprised if they let him off!"
*
"If I get my hands on you ki......" before Tara could finish his angry threat, he felt a balance force on his neck and the next moment he passed out. Trevor had done the classic pressure point chop his dad taught him!
[Illusion has ended. Your mana is at 0%]
The moment the notification came in, the fake Trevor standing off in the distance turned into gold particles like earlier and disappeared into think air. Shortly after, the real Trevor reappeared, panting like crazy. He was even bleeding from his nose.
Those who hadn't yet gotten the clear picture of the situation earlier realized what happened when the figure they thought was Trevor turned into gold particles.
"That kid! He must be a master of illusions!"
Cheers erupted but this time they weren't as vivid as the previous ones. Mainly because the majority had voted on Tara.
The most ironic thing was that he defeated both Whiteleys with the same trick.
"Hehe, I think you've really injured that family's pride now. It won't be long before they send someone after you. I've seen many such families," Ephraim said.
But Trevor was too distracted by the immense headache he was experiencing to pay attention to Ephraim.
"Winner! Trevor!"
Trevor slowly dragged himself out of the fighting area with difficulty. The world around him was spinning and he was seeing two of everything. In short, he was dizzy! The sounds around him started to fade out bit by bit and the world started to get dark until eventually, he passed out on the ground floor before he could reach the seating area.
[Brain in critical state! You will now go unconscious for recovery.]
"Hey guys, Is it just me or did Trevor look unwell," Tony asked scratching the back of his head.
"Of cause he is not okay. Did you not see how that boy tossed him like a sack of beans. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a few broken bones," Isaac stated, matter-of-factly.
"I think we should go check up on him," Rose said, worriedly. She quickly stood up and rushed towards the ground floor. The rest also followed after her.
It was true Trevor was unwell but it wasn't for the reason Isaac stated. He was actually mostly protected by the shield during that time Tara tossed him into a wall. The reason Trevor was in such a condition, was because of the foot work he performed, vanish step!
