204 Praise

The smirk that appeared on Raphael’s face sent chills all over Jake’s body.

He gulped hard, and before everyone’s gaze, he fled with a pace that would leave even a speedster dumbfounded.

Raphael arched an eyebrow, “Could you be any more foolish.” He muttered, and with a casual wave of his hand, Raphael had Jake flying towards him.

With only a few inches away from the both of them, Raphael balled his hand into a fist and then sent a full-force blow at Jake.

Bang!

As the fist struck the back of Jake’s head, he stumbled to the ground, with his head colliding with its surface.

“Ah~!” Jake painfully screeched afterward.

However, it wasn’t even up to a second after he expressed the anguish he felt when Raphael slowly placed his leg on his head.

“P-Please don’t,” Jake quickly cried out, he could already tell what was coming for him as soon as Raphael placed his leg on his head.

.....

“I’m a second-year student, I have plenty of points, treasure, and even gadgets… You just have to let me go, and it is all yours.”

Jake said in a teary voice.

However, if there was a statement more comical life is too short, drive fast and leave a sexy corpse behind, then it was probably this.

Raphael chuckled, it was very rare for someone to boast of having gadgets in front of him, and as he stared at Jake on the ground, his lips curved inwardly.

“Oh, really,” Raphael said in a seemingly amused tone.

“What are these treasures, or gadgets that you speak of… And let’s not forget how many academy points do you have to offer.” Rachael inquired.

While he was brutally battered from that attack, Jake couldn’t help but feel a little relieved after he sensed Raphael’s interest in his possession.

“If you can, please remove your leg from my… Head, then I will tell you where they are.” Jake mumbled.

Raphael smirked, and while, he had been requested to take his leg off, he did the opposite.

He raised his leg gently, and just when Jake didn’t expect it at all, he stomped his leg heavily on the back of Jake’s head once again.

Bang!

Earlier, Jake had his face covered in blood from the collision, but this time around, it wasn’t just a face covered in blood, but the front row of his teeth dropping to the ground.

Jake’s appearance was horrible, to say the least, and as he opened his mouth to speak, his state would surely cause a demented fellow to burst into laughter.

“Haha!”

Jake’s abruptly paused, when he heard that sadistic laughter from above, he clenched his hand into a fist, and then lowered his head in shame.

“Sorry, what are the things you have to offer?” Raphael asked, and for some perplexing relaxing, his voice was soft.

Jake gasped, “First, I have seven hundred thousand points here, I simply need your number, and the points would be sent to you.”

“I have a lot of treasures that would amount close to three million points when sold, and lastly, if you let me go, I promise to give you a gadget made by one of the top engineers in the academy.”

“A gadget made by Raphael Queen,” Jake blurted.

As Jake didn’t get the reaction or to be more precise, the exclamation he had been expecting after mentioning that name, he spoke.

“In case you haven’t heard, but Raphael is one of the best there is in the academy, even the director of the tech division said so… And yours truly has one of his gadgets.”

“I know how you must feel, but you simply have to let me go, and I promise to give you the gadget,” Jake said.

If Jake was able to see the expression on Raphael’s face, then with no doubt he would have been flabbergasted.

As this was the face of a youth trying his best to stop himself from bursting into laughter.

Raphael soon shook his head, “I have heard of Raphael Queen of course, but I must say, his gadget is one in a million to obtain, how did you get yours.” He responded.

The fact that Raphael had reduced the pressure which was exerted on Jake’s head, enable Jake to speak more smoothly.

“Now, you get it. And you know, I have a good relationship with the guy, I might as well as schedule a meeting between the both of you if you’re interested.”

“Oh really?” Raphael mumbled.

“Yes, just let me go, and it’s done. I promise.”

Unbeknownst to Jake, after he uttered those words, the expression on Raphael’s face immediately.

As Gus sat on Raphael’s shoulder, whispering some words into his voice, the previous demonic grin vanished, to then be replaced with a bone-chilling smile.

Raphael slowly removed his leg from Jake’s head, and as Jake manage to lift himself off the ground, Raphael spoke.

“Where is it?”

“Where is what?” Jake replied.

He then paused, and after hitting his hand against his face, he spoke. “Oh, you mean the gadget and treasures.”

“It’s like this, I guess you must be a third-year student, it would explain why you’re freakishly strong. Don’t get me wrong, it’s very good because that way you will face no hurdle to receive my treasures.” Jake said.

Then, ignoring the look on Raphael’s face, he added, “The second year is staged to be in the form of a cataclysmic event, but, I’m sure you already know that by now.”

“Anyway, my gadget is kept in the nine hundred and twenty-seven cave,” Jake said. “There is a red rock in the cave, just underneath the rock, you will find a secret entrance.”

“In there, you will find everything, I own.”

There was soon to be a smile on Jake’s face after he spoke and, followed by a gentle bow, he turned around.

“Where the hell do you think, you’re going to!”

Jake had only taken a few steps forward when he heard that cold voice.

He didn’t turn toward Raphael and instead said, “Didn’t we have a deal, I tell you where my treasures and gadget are,” Jake paused.

“Oh, how could I have forgotten? I haven’t sent the points, I promised.” Jake turned towards Raphael, “I’m going to need your details, now.”

Raphael nodded his head, and quickly the exchange was done.

Once the points were sent to his account, with notification of payment also received, Jake gave Raphael a thumbs up.

He turned around once again and was about to head out of Gilman’s mansion when he saw Raphael in front of him.

“Is there something else you want?” Jake politely asked.

At the moment, the hair on his body was standing on the end, and it was only a matter of time before he lost his cool.

Truthfully, it was really bad enough that he lost all he worked for these past few years, now having someone pestering him about more was really upsetting.

Jake was only able to keep a calm composure despite his horrible state because what he gained far surpassed what he had lost.

As Raphael then nodded his head to his question, Jake spoke. “What is it, you want from me again?”

“What you stole from the academy,” Raphael answered.

Terror swept through Jake’s body the instant he heard those words. He gasped heavily, before then flashing Raphael a rough smile and then saying.

“I have no idea what it is you’re talking about.”

Jake took a step back after he spoke.

Raphael sneered, and with a step forward, he directly appeared in front of Jake. “Of course you do.”

With that said, and Raphael punched Jake’s face.

Bang!

Jake’s eyes rolled back and forth before he fainted.

Raphael soon smiled.

He turned towards Barnett and his wife who had been watching the entire show with shock written all over their face and then said.

“Do you have a table?”

An- Five chapters or less than that and we return to the academy... Peace
