"No don\'t," Kye immediately said with a lot of seriousness. "I do not want to use your influence to make my life easier, so quit acting like this!"

"But-..." Lidi, Yugo, and Ven all wanted to continue, but they were all cut short by Kye once again.

"For the love of God, there\'s no but in situations like this!" Kye stood up. "Quit putting your lives on the line for me, quit acting as if I always need to be protected by one of you, and quit disregarding people\'s life so easily!" He stormed from the mini circle they had made for him before activating his suit and dipped in the water.

Kye\'s words were harsh, but he had the feeling that he had to say this. His friends, even though did that for his well-being, didn\'t actually see how pressured he was by their actions. They were always ready to put their lives on the line for him, always ready to kill someone who acted rashly toward him. Sure having their protection was a good thing, sure their intentions were good, but he felt as if he was suffocating by their actions.

So even though he surely had hurt them, he wanted them to think a little bit by themselves. And if he wanted them to do so, he needed to either distance himself so that they wouldn\'t be affected by his energy as much as now, or level up so that he could control this energy that made his friends act like puppets.

And when they were all about to follow behind him, Madison stopped them. "You guys should think about what he said before going back to him. It is not up to an old hag like me to comment on the bounds that link all of you, but what he said was right. So please, think carefully before doing anything," She then slowly walked away to see what the students were up to.

After hearing that, instead of going to train, they all went to the side and sad the long bench available for them. On the one hand, they wanted to think about what Kye said, but on the other hand, they didn\'t want to stay on bad terms with Kye. And in the end, not knowing what to do, they all sat there without saying anything.

As for Enzo, since he didn\'t understand anything, he decided to went after Kye once the other three went to the side. He didn\'t have anything to do with the other, and it was the best moment for him to befriend Kye.

He couldn\'t find this situation happening in front of him twice, so he needed to act when Kye wasn\'t in his right mind so that the befriending process would go smoother and easier.

After going underwater, he first got used to moving, and in just five minutes, he almost moved as well as if he was moving on the ground. He then went and searched for Kye, only to see him at the other end of the swimming pool, swimming as if he was a fish.

\'I didn\'t expect to see him manage to move that easily in such a short amount of time. There\'s no one else who can move like him whereas they all went before him inside the water.\'

Kye was always a good swimmer. It was probably the only sport he liked back then before the military. However, due to his circumstances, he was always beaten up even before he could even step outside of his school. So he never got the chance to go to a swimming pool a lot. But now that he could and didn\'t have to worry about his wings like earlier, he could finally enjoy swimming however he wanted.

So Enzo joined him, only to be greeted by a cold Kye. "What do you want?" After having activated their suit, a little mask that only covered their eyes so that they could see, their nose so that they could breathe, and their mouth so that they could talk freely appeared from their suits.

"Be friend with you," Enzo immediately stated what he wanted.

"Tch, scram," Kye said and turned away. He knew that Enzo was at a high level, but at this point, he didn\'t care about it anymore. He had almost died and already got beaten up all his life, so what could go worse than that?

"Kye, wait!" Enzo tried to follow him, but Kye was faster than him underwater. So he had to use his ability to make Kye move slower. "I\'m sorry to use my ability like this, but I really want to be friends with you."

"And why would I accept, huh?" Kye asked. He was being pissed more and more now. He loved the water and swimming even more, but Enzo wasn\'t letting him swim freely, and even worse, was slowing him down with his time ability.

"Because I\'m sure I can be a good friend to you," Enzo didn\'t even think about what he would say to that question, he just blurted that the moment he heard the question.

"I don\'t want a friend who was on my opponent\'s side until yesterday. Or did you already forget that I had to fight Bulk because of you?" Kye got closer to Enzo and slowly began to pressure him. Of course, Enzo was still taller than him, so it was quite a strange sight to see.

"I don\'t have anything to do with them anymore," Enzo admitted. "And I did that because I didn\'t want things to escalate to things we wouldn\'t be able to cover later."

"Then did you think about how a level 1 could have won against someone higher level than him?" Kye asked, getting even angrier. It wasn\'t in his habit to get angry, and he didn\'t know why he was in the first place. But he just felt like it.

"..." Enzo didn\'t manage to answer since even for him it was something impossible. "But in the end, you\'re the one who won, right? So everything\'s good."

"Oh, then you can beat me to death and force me to be friends with you, right? In the end, we will be friends, and I will still be alive, so go ahead and do it."

Hearing that, Enzo understood how his answer was foolish. Kye was right. The relationship between a high level and a low level wasn\'t something easy, especially for the low level. And Kye knew that very well. He could, at any time, be beaten up to death if the high level wasn\'t happy or in the mood. And he will have to still do as if nothing happened because he wouldn\'t even be able to say anything nor defend himself if things went wrong for him. And in the worst case, he could as well die when the high level was pissed to no end and wanted to relieve himself by beating someone.

It was something natural in this society, and Kye didn\'t want to be associated with such people. He preferred a thousand times being beaten up once than living in the fear of being beaten up to death and having to live with it until whatever would separate them.

"I\'m sorry, I didn\'t mean to say that," Enzo looked down after he processed everything in his head.

"Now what will you do huh? Beat me or leave me alone?" Kye said, leaving one last ultimatum to Enzo who will be decisive for their future relationship.

"I won\'t beat you, but I won\'t leave you alone either. I want to be friends with you, and it\'s not by letting you stay in this mood that I will manage to befriend you."

Kye didn\'t say anything for a moment and only looked at Enzo coldly, thus building the tension in the air, or rather in the water in this case. Enzo even had the impression that Kye\'s eyes were glowing yellow for a second.

And suddenly, Kye smiled and extended his hand. He returned to his usual self. "Nice to meet you, I\'m Kye Vermillion, but I\'m sure you already did a background check on me. Please take care of me from now on."

Enzo stares blankly at Kye\'s hand for a few seconds. He didn\'t expect that and was quite taken aback by this sudden turn of even. He was sure that he wouldn\'t be able to befriend him at this rate, but Kye just proved him wrong. So he quickly reached out his hand too to not let him alone.

"N-nice to meet you, I\'m Enzo Laborde, from one of the big families, just like Yugo and Ven. Please take care of me as well from now on," He introduced himself. "And yeah, I\'m sorry to have done a background check, but please understand me too. It is extremely rare to see someone win against someone with such a big gap in levels and to add insult to injury, you didn\'t even get hit once. Not to say that you were also friends with such influential people. So it would have been stranger for me not to check your background."

\'Haha, yeah I guess so," Kye chuckled. "Anyway, now that we\'re friends, care to tell me why you suddenly wanted to befriend me so bad?"
