So there.

Just like that!

These New Bloods, all under thirteen, rely on their herd mentality, striking without thought or reason, intent on bullying others.

Isn’t this just like school bullying?

Their minds are immature, not recognizing the gravity of their actions, thinking it’s all fun and games.

Link was utterly repulsed by school bullying in his previous life.

Such scum who cannot distinguish right from wrong, have little understanding of good and evil, act on their natural instincts, enjoy the twisted pleasure from bullying others, act wantonly, oppress their classmates, take pleasure from it, never repent, are simply unworthy to be human.

Link never thought that he would encounter this kind of thing again, even after changing worlds, and the soon-to-be victim of bullying was himself.

What could he bear? How could he not bear it?

All along, Link has intentionally kept a low profile, refusing to fight with others, but this does not mean he lacks tenacity.

If he did not operate the “Mind Closure Technique” in time, his fury would have exploded.

A smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth as Link exerted force under his feet, leaping suddenly forward. Seizing the moment of shock from his opponents, he made a fist with his right hand, threw an uppercut, creating The Lushan Rising Dragon Tyrant effect, hitting the New Blood’s jaw.

With a bang.

The victim only felt stars in his vision, a buzzing sound in his head, and he was knocked out.

Without stopping, Link twisted his waist, used his left foot as a pivot, his right leg swept high across, kicking the two closest people.

Bang, bang, two sounds again.

These two people were brutally kicked in their heads by Link, almost simultaneously, making them lose their senses and collapse on the ground.

Link landed and his long legs tensed. He twisted his waist and exerted force, his left leg swung in the air, chopping down like a combat axe.

The remaining two, hit in the chest, also helplessly fell to the ground.

If these five weren’t all talented wizards with rank five qualifications who had advanced to First Rank Wizard Apprentice, and their bodies hadn’t accommodated magic power, which had greatly improved their bodily functions, Link’s punch and kick would have killed them.

Link squatted down, lightly tapping the cheek of the New Blood who had initiated the conflict, said in a calm tone, “Don’t worry, I’m just teaching you a lesson. As long as you don’t report to the school, you’ll be fine. But if you report to the school, there will be trouble.”

After finishing, Link’s gaze became indifferent, met each of the eyes of the five New Bloods collapsed on the ground.

The kind of indifference that treats life as if it’s no big deal, as if he could kill them at any moment, but wouldn’t be affected emotionally at all, made the five New Bloods’ hairs stand on end.

This…

How many people has he killed?

The same question emerged in the minds of the five New Bloods.

Of course, Link hasn’t killed anyone.

He simply operated the “Mind Closure Technique”, simulating the eyes of a serial killer he had seen in a legal program in his previous life.

Link is not a murderer, nor would he become a bully if he despised school bullying. In order to have a peaceful future, he just taught these five New Bloods who caused trouble a lesson, and he added a little intimidation.

Having dealt with the five New Bloods, Link took out his portable smart brain and sent a message to Jasmine, asking her whereabouts.

Since last night, he had suspected that something was amiss.

Although he hadn’t found much about Rives Francis, from the fact that he could become the “Vice President of the New Blood Mutual Aid Association”, he doesn’t seems like a complete fool.

It was unreasonable that just yesterday he found someone to teach Link a lesson, then the news was leaked to Jasmine.

Unless there’s a mole close to him, in collusion with people who want to retaliate against Rivers.

Jasmine quickly replied to the message, informing Link that she was eating breakfast in the cafeteria.

Link thought for a while, then suggested Jasmine to come straight to the library after having breakfast, and not to accept any invitations or go anywhere else on the way.

Jasmine agreed.

At this time, the five New Bloods, who were collapsed on the ground, recovered one after another. They slowly got up, but they remained still, not knowing what to do.

Retaliate?

That’s a joke. The five of them had every reason to suspect that if they dared to provoke again, they would probably die.

Link glanced at them casually, and the five of them shivered, a little bit afraid.

Link smiled and asked, “Tell me, what exactly is going on today?”

After the five hesitated, the one who had taken the lead stepped forward and stuttered, “It was Rives Francis, the Vice President of the ‘New Blood Mutual Aid Association’, who found us yesterday. He said you were the third one among us to advance to First Rank Wizard Apprentice, and if we don’t teach you a lesson now, to make you know awe, you would ignore us geniuses with rank five qualifications more and more in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Link’s expression turned into a black question mark again.

He was prepared for the exposure of his promotion.

The key was, what kind of logic did these five have?

He couldn’t help but frown and ask, “After hearing that, you guys came to bother me?”

“Well…not exactly.”

The one who took the lead stuttered even more, and finally gritted his teeth and revealed the truth, “The Vice President Rives promised to give us two Magic Stones each.”

“Oh.”

Link nodded, the world is always about the exchange of interests, so this makes sense.

After a while, Link asked, “What do you plan to reply to that Vice President now?”

“Umm…”

The five looked at each other again, not knowing what to do.

They have botched things up, of course, they couldn’t reply now.

Link smiled and said, “Like this, I’ll give you an idea. Just say you’ve beaten me up, and even forced me to promise to take another way whenever I see the Vice President.”

“Can…can we do that?”

The five of them didn’t dare to agree immediately, fearing that it would fail in the end.

“Why can’t we?”

The smile on Link’s face grew stronger as he continued to suggest them, “You just say you were afraid that I would report to the school, so you didn’t hit my face. If he asks you for evidence, you say that if the evidence is leaked, it would be troublesome if the school finds out. Just insist that you’ve already beaten me up.”

After a brief pause, realizing the five understood what he meant, Link continued, “As for the Magic Stones…”

“They’re all yours!”

The five shouted out together.

“No, no, no.”

Link waved his hand, his tone serious and determined, “What’s yours is yours, I don’t want any of it. You can accept it with ease.”

“This… ”

The five hesitated again, seeing the smile fading from Link’s face, they reluctantly replied, “Alright…alright.”

Next, under Link’s “witness”, the five replied to Vice President Rives through their portable smart computers, and received a certificate of him paying them ten Magic Stones.

The Magic Stones will be directly delivered to the mailbox at the door of the five’s dormitory, no need to pick up in person.

Only then was Link satisfied.

The five swindled the Magic Stones from Rives, and they would no longer continue to be his “mercenaries.”

Moreover, with these benefits, their resentment towards Link would be greatly reduced.

After all, there are no deep hatreds, just having suffered a beating.

Link did not want to transform his peaceful life of studying into a plot of fighting monsters and leveling up. It’s better to have one less enemy.

Next to be dealt with is the problem with Jasmine.
