Chapter 33: Battle Royal

God I love Danzo

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I sit on a bench as everyone was battling. Goodwitch decided to have a free for all battle for some match that's supposedly coming soon. She sought to bring the strongest so a battle royal was chosen. I was the only one to have opt out as my team looked at me worried. Acnologia was an exception since at first he was upset but later changed moods and still participated. He was visibly disappointed in his fighting.

Y/n: "You aren't trying"

I whisper to myself as he blocks every attack with a single hand. He didn't even try to attack. He just deflected every attack.

Goodwitch: "Mr. L/n, I'm surprised you decided to decline. Usually, you and Acnologia would be the first to sign up"

Y/n: "I have... reasons"

Goodwitch: "Do tell"

Y/n: "I rather not"

Goodwitch: "Shame. You are the school's strongest student. You and Acnologia that is. He doesn't seem motivated enough to try and you won't battle"

Y/n: "Maybe... maybe I should go in and lose in purpose. It might give him-"

Goodwitch: "The confidence and rivalry? That won't do. He'll know you threw the match away"

Y/n: "No. He'll be motivated to defeat the guy that defeated me"

Goodwitch: "He's not dense.. that much. I promise you he'll figure it out immediately. Instead, why not give him an actual fight?"

Shirou: "I need you to stop using magic"

I look at my hands and skin.

Y/n: "I... can't"

Miss Goodwitch looks at the combatants and stands up.

Goodwitch: "Well, if you'd like to join you can step in at any time"

She leaves as I try to think of what to do. I couldn't possibly use my projection magecraft or else I'm at risk.

Y/n: "Dying"

I look up to see him not even trying. I think about what to do.

Y/n: "Well, it doesn't really affect me much it I use it.. Come on buddy, I'm about to give you a reason to try"

I get up and walk towards the giant ring with no ropes.

Y/n: "Guves me a chance to work with my hand to hand combat"

I crack my knuckles and relax my shoulders a bit.

Goodwitch: "As I thought"

She said with a smile as the last of her students walks into the ring. At the moment, all of Teams CRDL, RWBY, and YAGA remained active. The moment he stepped foot in the ring, everyone stopped what they were doing and focused solely on him.

Y/n: "It appears I draw a lot of attention?"

Akame: "Y/n, I don't think you should fight"

I hadn't spoken with anyone what had happened when I met Shirou we I rather keep that to myself.

Y/n: "I thought this was to determine who was the strontest?"

Acnologia: "It is"

He said with a big smile.

Y/n: "Good. You all weren't really going to go all out without having the real boss here now did you?"

Acnologia: "Why don't you come here and prove it then?"
