As Yani pointed at Lin, Lin bewilderingly pointed at himself and thought "me!?"
"Wha-!?" Lina stammered as she composed herself and went near Lin as she took one of Lin's arm with her hand. "Yes, Lin is my boyfriend,Oren. Please don't disturb me with your presence" Lina said to Oren as Yani added "Yes, leave with your filthy presence".
In all of this Lin was surprised, bewildered but he composed himself quickly because he understood what they were trying to do using him as a shield against this Oren fellow. The same thing had happened in his previous life so he was accustomed to it.
Oren's face darkened as he looked at Lin and angrily shouted at Yani and Lina "shut up! You damn woman. How dare you choose another boy instead of me. I agree that he looks better than me but so what my status, future prospects, wealth and strength will crush him".
Hearing the shouting and commotion all the other students turned and looked at them as they saw four of the five school beauties, the young master and a unknown boy fighting they got curious and excited at the fight.
"Shut up you fool. You don't even have 1% quality of qualities Lin have" Lina shouted and scolded Oren as she got angry because of him belittling Lin. Oren face darkened as he heard Lina's word as he gritted his teeth and looked at Lin with fury and anger in his eyes as he said "you damn boy, how can you cower behind a woman? I challenge you for a duel."
Lin looked at the angry boy as he flatly uninterestingly replied "you are not worth my time but I will give you a chance. But what will the winner get?" Oren smirked slightly as he looked at Lin with disdain considering him as a lowly man without any evolution or a low evolution as he said "if I win you bow down to me lick my shoe clean and never show your face to Lina".
"Fine, I accept but if I win you will grovel at my feet and apologize to Lina and never pester her anymore." Lin said as Oren accepted the challenge.
After a while they both were at a tournament ring getting ready to fight. "Lin, I don't think you have to do this." Lina said to Lin as she didn't know anything about his strength. "Yes, you don't have to do this" Yani and Elli said to Lin as Lami just huffed and turned her head away.
"Don't worry, I know what I am doing" Lin reassured as he turned around and looked at Oren as he gave Lin a smirk of superiority. All the people gave space and went away including the four girls.
"Are you ready to be beaten to death?" Oren asked with as Lin looked at him calmly and said "I think you will know it when you will ask for your mother's help after the beating".
The crowd burst into laughter with the girls hearing Lin's word as Oren's face turned even turned darker his face almost becoming black from anger and humiliation.
"Damn you!" Oren said loudly as the crowd calmed down and their laughter died down.
