I Just Want to Farm, But My Beasts Keep Evolving!!-Chapter 49: Yuna’s Wrath

Raiden felt he had never been more close to death than he was right now.

"Ahem, greetings, Miss Yuna. I must say, you look breathtaking as ever! What brings you here?"

Yuna stared daggers into Raiden with so much intensity that Raiden felt she wanted to kill him with her eyes.

"Raiden. Ashford. You have embarrassed me. Are you prepared for the consequences?" Yuna spoke in a very calm tone, which somehow made her seem even more scary to him.

"Let’s stay calm, Miss Yuna. You are a teacher; you can’t murder your students in broad daylight. You’ll end up in jail!!" Raiden tried to defend himself while he backed away slowly.

"Heh. Who dares to arrest me in this city? At most, I’ll quit my job early. But you...I’ll skin you alive."

Yuna advanced sharply with her heels, making *tak tak* sounds with each step.

Raiden suddenly hit something behind him, halting him in his tracks. He turned around to find a wall behind him.

Looking at the she-demon advancing towards him, he felt like crying. What sort of crimes had he committed to warrant such bloodlust? At most, he had promoted his newly purchased shop a little. It didn’t require such an extreme reaction.

"Miss Yuna, beautiful Miss Yuna, please forgive me!! I had to do it!! I am just a poor little guy with an even poorer little sister to take care of and raise. You can’t do this!! Sylvia is your favourite student, right? Think about her!! I am her big brothe—"

BANG!!

Raiden closed his eyes as he saw the incoming fist nearing his face, thinking it was of the very short life he lived here.

But when he didn’t feel the anticipated pain, he opened his eyes, only to see her fair hand hit the wall behind him, leaving a 3-inch crater in it.

"I am only letting you go just for now. You’d better thank Sylvia. If not for her, I would have hung you up from the school building long ago. Embarrass me and my name again, and you’ll wish you were never born." Yuna threatened in a low tone, before turning around and walking away in her heels.

Looking at her go, Raiden let out a sigh of relief, as he leaned back on the wall for support, only to fall straight through it.

Raiden watched in pure horror as the wall started turning into sand-like particles, as the whole wall crumbled away like dust in the air.

His legs started to shake uncontrollably. He had just touched the corner of hell and came back from it.

’That fucking lunatic!! She really wanted to kill me just because I promoted something!! Got to stay as far away from her in the future.’

A minute later, Toby came running towards him, surprise written all over his face.

"Wow, Raiden, you are still in one piece? That witch didn’t do anything to you?" He asked, his voice full of wonder.

"Heh, what can she do to me? Who am I? Raiden Ashford. I just told her to get lost, and she ran away crying." Raiden started bragging before turning towards him.

Toby’s face had disdain written all over it. His face clearly said he didn’t believe in a single thing Raiden said, and as if he was saying, ’Come on, keep bullshitting. I want to see how far you can go.’

"And what about you, you traitor!! You ran away as soon as you saw her coming towards me!! Some friend you are!!" Raiden turned the table towards him.

"Who says anything about running away?! I was preparing for my next match! It is against a seeded contestant after all! If nothing surprising happens, my journey will end here." Toby shrugged.

"Enough about me, let’s talk about you!! You seem even stronger than the seeded contestants!! Only one of them won in a similar fashion as you, ending all matches with one hit. Even the other two can’t do it."

"What can I say, it’s a natural God-given gift. Woolie and I trained really hard for this. I’d be more surprised if we end up losing instead." Raiden shrugged his shoulders.

"Alright, everyone, give it up for the next match!! Next up, we have our crowd favourite, Raiden and his adorable and strong Woolie!! He has been dominating the competition so far, winning each and every match with a single hit!! Nothing seems to be capable of stopping him!! And facing against him is Jacob!! Can he end the streak of this year’s hidden Emperor?! Or will he fall like the rest of them?! Only the winner will get a chance to get into the Top 16!!"

Hearing his opponent’s name, Raiden got a feral grin on his face. It was time to get some long-overdue revenge.

"Let’s go Woolie!! We have a prey to hunt."

"Woolie~" Prey? What prey? I am telling you, human, I am a vegetarian!! I don’t hunt like a barbarian, I am a graceful Emperor!! (•̀w•́)~!

Raiden ignored his grumblings. He was much busier thinking about how to hurt Jacob without being disqualified.

Raiden started climbing the stage only to see Jacob already waiting there for him with a grin on his face.

"Finally, you are here, loser. I am going to beat you so hard that your mum won’t even recognise you!! Wait, I forgot you don’t even have a mom or dad, hahahaha!!" Jacob started laughing arrogantly on the stage.

In the stands, Sylvia’s hands curled into fists.

But he forgot one thing: that everything he said and did was broadcasted live to everyone in the stands.

There was a pin-drop silence in the venue after his declaration, before it all exploded together.

"Damnit, that guy is so despicable!! I want to beat him up myself!!"

"I am going to fight that kid myself. Don’t stop me!!"

"Poor baby Raiden, I never knew he was an orphan. He must have been so weak and bullied by him in the past. I need to protect him." A female fan declared.

"That’s right!! We need to protect Raiden. Look at him, how terrified he looks, shaking like a leaf. We must protect him." A wave of agreement followed.

Watching this, all the men suddenly felt their enthusiasm die down a little. The world was pragmatic like that. They all started thinking about the fights Raiden had so far, and shivered.

’Bullying? That guy?! He is so strong, it’ll be a miracle if he didn’t bully others instead.’

But this time, they were wrong. Raiden, in fact, had been bullied and beaten up badly in the past. And his body was indeed shaking, but not in fear. It was shaking in anger. He wanted to let him off easy. But now, he decided to play with him a little.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt. He started laughing out of sheer anger.

"Go, fuck him up, Woolie!!"
