"We have been abused and bullied for far too long! With his help, we can finally be free from you and you're malicious tactics! So just leave us alone!" The nerdy kid yelled.

Bardon replied, clearly enraged, "You see... you got one thing wrong there. There is no 'us' where you currently stand. Right now, there is just you and me. Did you think Lyrian your lord and savior would rescue you even from this situation?"

Hearing this, the kid took a few steps back. "I... I don't know. I don't care! Just leave me alone!" He yelled before trying to sprint away but was quickly grabbed by two of Bardon's friends.

They held him on both sides, not letting him move as he flung his legs in the air in an attempt to escape.

"What is your problem!? Why do you hate Lyrian so much! Why do you have to establish that you are greater than us!?"

"Again!" Bardon suddenly yelled. "There is no us here!" He exclaimed before unleashing a powerful punch toward the kid.

Lyrian noticed the force of the punch as it was released, causing his eyes to widen slightly from surprise.

Clearly, Bardon was beyond enraged, as the punch carried enough power to break a kid's ribcage.

Seeing how seriously Bardon was taking this, Lyrian wanted to intervene, not wanting a kid to die for such petty reasons, but he was simply too far away to do anything from where he was.

Just as the punch reached only a few millimeters away from the kid's chest, Bardon's fist was pushed away.

The kid opened his eyes, surprised at why he wasn't dead right now, only to see a sword blocking Bardon's fist.

Looking at the wielder of the sword, he was shocked. "Leonidas?" He said, as the delinquents that held him immediately dropped him and ran in fear.

Lyrian was equally as surprised, not at all expecting Leonidas of all people to somehow show up out of the blue.

Before the other kids could escape, Leonidas quickly ran over to them and slammed the hilt of his sword on the back of their back, causing them to faint instantly and stumble to the ground.

Finally, only Bardon and Leonidas stood, even the nerdy kid being forced on his rear from his legs giving up strength, as he was fully expecting to die right then and there.

"You!? What the hell are you doing here?" Bardon yelled at Leonidas.

"That's not important. What we really should be talking about here is why you nearly just killed this kid." Leonidas said, looking at the nerdy kid who was still on the floor.

"That's none of your business!" Bardon yelled.

"It's because of Lyrian, he didn't like that I was creating support for him." The nerdy kid finally regained his senses.

"Lyrian? I was just with him a second ago." Leonidas said, nothing thinking much of it.

"What!?" Both the nerdy kid and Bardon said in unison, as Bardon quickly began to look around, his face turning pale with a hint of fear.

"Where!? What are you talking about? Where is that bastard!?" Bardon yelled, a mix of fear and resentment in his tone.

"What's going on here? I go to take a piss and suddenly I have people talking about me behind the tree I'm peeing on?" Lyrian suddenly emerged from the shadows, showing his elite acting skills.

Seeing Lyrian, the nerdy kid fainted on the spot from shock.

"Yo--you! How in the hell are you here!?" Bardon yelled as Lyrian began to walk closer.

"Oh, that's right... I just so happen to remember that I wanted to deal with you once and for all so that you would stop bothering me. This looks to be the perfect time to do that." Lyrian said, encroaching on Bardon who frantically took a few steps back, nearly tripping and falling.

Lyrian had humiliated him on multiple occasions and had even shown strength that surpassed Silvus himself.

It wouldn't be a stretch to say that he was very scared of him, and right now, Bardon saw that he was going up against Leonidas too, someone who defeated another high lister on the magic potential boards.

"You'll regret this later!" Bardon tried to use one of his trusty lines before quickly turning around and making a run for it.

However, Leonidas and Lyrian appeared where he was in a moment.

Leonidas didn't want Bardon to run away similar to the other goons he had knocked out.

But Lyrian on the other hand simply wanted to beat the crap out of him so that he would be too scared to bother him ever again.

Before Leonidas could even hit Bardon with the hilt of his sword, Lyrian slammed his fist into Bardon's stomach, sending him flying; with his flight blocked by a tree that caused him to crash down to the floor.

With that single gut-wrenching punch, Bardon was out for the count.
