The Beginning.... Shall Begin!

Victor stared at Aether, his expression blank as he took in the younger man's resolute demeanour. After a moment, he let out a weary sigh, his shoulders relaxing as he muttered, "Whatever, do what you want." With a shrug, he turned his attention back to the battle at hand, his muscles tensing as he caught the monster's limbs with nothing but his bare hands.

Kenley's eyes widened in shock, Even the Mechaflesh Arachnid seemed surprised that Victor could hold it off without using Arcane energy.

"He's different..." the monster rumbled, clearly unsettled by Victor's raw strength. It retaliated, lashing out with its other limbs, but Victor twisted his body, narrowly dodging the attacks with an almost inhuman agility.

"KYAAA!!"

"Help us!!!!"

The terrified cries of the students rang out as they struggled to fend off the relentless minions.
