Let me be a mob! - Chapter 96- Protagonist vs Mob~End!
Weapon Summoning. A call to bring out your unique weapon out of the cross-dimensional realm.
Those people who form a contract with a weapon with a sentinel identity are the only ones who can summon their weapons on command.
It wasn’t that growing stronger or increasing in ranks would grant someone their sentinel arsenal. If it would have been true then someone like Lisa who was amongst one of the strongest S-rankers would surely have a unique weapon for herself.
There were not many beings who possessed their sentinel weapon but from the knowledge of the history left behind by the founders of the nations and the first defenders of the human side, there was something that was ascertained a long time ago.
Amongst all those sentinel weapons, only one stands atop, the piece of heavenly metal that could pierce through the sky and vanquish evil just by its mere presence. The sword holds the ability to bend reality and allow the user to wield the power that no mortal should have a grasp on.
The light bestowed by the supreme deity. The justice bringer—Excalibur.

Watching the weapon suitable for the protagonist currently being held by Aiden, Jin could feel his heart thumping wildly against his chest. After facing that demon back in Dungeon City, it was the first time he felt his blood boiling like this.
‘He finally decided to utilize his all…’ Jin’s continuous push from his side through the means of mockery cornered Aiden to rely on those means he once regarded as calamity.
Aiden has killed numerous innocent people when he first awakened his powers and realized his fate connected with the voices from the heavens. His powers were uncontrollable was what he concluded previously, that was why he never considered using his other attributes even though their lives were in danger on more than one occasion.
Yet, right now…
‘Now, can I hold back?’ Jin took a step back, knowing too well how Aiden wouldn’t attack until Jin doesn’t prepare his counter before the silver-haired youth yelled in an excited tone.
“Gleipnir!”
Heeding its master’s call the twin mythical weapons emerged out of thin air, landing perfectly in Jin’s grip.
The twin axes, unlike the vibrantly shining Excalibur, were dark in color with runic symbols etched at the borders of its blade. The handle was around three feet in height with the overall size of the weapon reaching four feet.
“Now come at me with your best.” Jin rested his axes on his shoulders in a casual manner before sending a battle taunt to his opponent.
Aiden’s expression remained the same even though he knew the strength those axes carried. It was the same weapon that slayed that Illusion monkey during the Representative selection test.
However, nothing was going to stop Aiden today from confronting Jin.

“Forget it, I am gonna stop them…” Seeing the wild aura radiating from the two young men, Lisa couldn’t help announcing.
The ground was shaking under the sheer pressure of Jin and Aiden’s mana concentration. The sky has turned dark and the two seemed bloodthirsty enough to send a shiver down Lisa’s spine. At the moment, Aiden and Jin are probably the strongest duos of the whole academy student unit.
Even Fiona wasn’t resisting Lisa’s objection anymore as with a frown she stared at the tattered battlefield where the two stood. It was given that she would feel stressed about Jin, given what tremendous power Aiden was currently extruding.
The other students either have taken their distance from the battle or simply ran away from the spot in the fret of getting crushed by the sheer aura of the two.
“But Professor…shouldn’t we trust Jin a little more? I mean from the looks of it, it seems Jin anticipated something like this to unfold.”
Hearing Dia’s words, Lisa snickered.
‘Anticipated? Planning? That guy is just simply enjoying the battle…’ Lisa could see the flames of excitement raging violently in Jin’s eyes. She was familiar with the expression since she once harbored such adrenaline as well.
But at the moment, she needed to think rationally and act like a teacher. She couldn’t let her past self take an intrusive decision here and had to stop this battle before her students could harm each other.
However, just as she was about to teleport between them, her magic got nullified, and Lisa found herself in the same spot.
“Huh…” The ability to neutralize a technique was something a particular someone was capable of in this Academy and when Lisa lifted her eyes, she found her hunch to be proven true.
“Headmaster…”
“Let them be, Lisa. We shall not come in the way of our student’s progression.”
Lisa raised her brows before redirecting her eyes toward the battlefield.
‘Progress…like this…?’
****
Regardless of whatever happened around them, Jin and Aiden were uncaring about it whatsoever.
Aiden didn’t realize how this battle had become a source of ascertaining his own strength more than to bring justice to Rena.
He just wanted to discern where he stood and what could be better than to fight the person Aiden deemed as his rival?
Raising the holy sword of light, Aiden placed the broad blade in front of his face before muttering under his breath, “Don’t die on me, Jin.”
No one gave the signal nor did they have any mutual countdown in mind yet the very instance Aiden launched himself forward, Jin disappeared from his spot as well, advancing toward his opponent with his axes held in a cross grip.
The audience held their breath. The air seemed to have paused at that instance. Every eye is glued toward the battlefield. Just as the first droplet of rain made its way down to the surface, the momentary tranquility of the battleground was disrupted with a tremendous howl.
**BOOOOOOOM**
As an energy blast erupted at their meeting spot, a huge crater was carved around the location. The ground still trembled under the shockwaves of the clash which settled after the first confrontation.
The clouds of dust soon began to clear out and the person who appeared to be still standing on the battlefield was none other than….
“Aiden….”

A/N:- I would give a valid reason for such an outcome. Please be a little patient and don’t hate me… T~T
