The Metal Military Academy
Chapter 47: Mocking

“Introduction Forest!”

Nadia's two hands were clapped onto the ground, creating a momentary green aura, then a giant tree sprouted before her. The logs grow in creeping periodically following towards Ardan.

Everyone watching the fight was shocked to learn how big the trees Nadia could create in one fell swoop. The growth of all the trees looks very fast and the shape is terrible.

“Iya.... That's why, anyway, why I was worried that my sister would destroy the facilities here,” muttered Rafa while paying attention to the fight.

Chrysanthemum was also amazed to see the Resurrection Power of Nadia even though her facial expression remained flat. Nadia has the power to control plants, and it is a very extraordinary power in the eyes of Chrysanthemums.

Chrysanthemums are a little envious. If only he had such an element of Resurrection Power. She ‘kan nature lover.

“Krysanthemum!”

Chrysanthemum turned his head as Nadia called out to him. It was seen that the girl was still putting both hands on the floor, trying to create more big trees to attack and surround Ardan.

“Motion!”

Understanding Nadia's intentions, Chrysanthemum instantly disappeared, starting to enter the sidelines of the artificial forest.

In the middle of the field, Ardan was still standing while paying attention to the massive growth of the trees Nadia had created. All kinds of giant vines quickly approached him.

Ardan was convinced, Nadia wanted to create her own battle arena with those plants.

Salah Ardan himself, desperate to provoke the emotions of a Nadia Isabella Novan. In the end, the girl had no qualms about exerting a Resurrection Power of this magnitude just to defeat Ardan.

But, it's okay. Fishing for Nadia's emotions was already part of the plan. Now, Ardan is simply taking further action.

“Flying Coaches.”

Ardan prepared some iron pegs that were left floating around him just in case. Ardan's silver eyes began to focus on watching the movements of the vines.

When some roots started attacking, the young man immediately jumped several times up the other roots. He immediately ran over the tree trunk while avoiding any root lashes and leaf tendrils with flying pegs following.

Ardan occasionally controls several pegs to ward off all attacks of plants and cut them.

He continued to run over the tree trunk, jump from one tree to another, and began to plunge.

“Iron Boards!”

Ardan created a flat iron board under both feet as it began to plunge downwards. When it landed, it immediately slid along the trunk of the tree. Several attacks of stems, giant roots, and leaf tendrils continued to be launched towards Ardan during its glide.

“Hup! Heaaah..!”

With agile Ardan glided dodging all attacks, jumping, sliding back, arching the body as the tree trunk was about to crash into it, even jumping the salto forward and back gliding.

When it was felt that no more plant attacks led to him, Ardan had realized something strange. Ever since Nadia created this forest, she had not seen the existence of Chrysanthemums anymore.

“Where does the girl go?”

Still gliding, silver eyes Ardan moved to pay attention to the surrounding situation, be alert, looking for the existence of a figure of Chrysanthemum or Nadia who might attack him suddenly.

There are a lot of bad possibilities that can happen in this kind of situation. Nadia deliberately created a forest so that the two girls could attack her secretly.

While searching, Ardan managed to find a shadow passing between the trees, some distance beside him.

“There you apparently are!”

Ardan jumped with an iron board, kicking the iron board in the air until it shot, stuck it right in the tree trunk where the shadow was hiding. The shadow seemed to disappear quickly when it realized its position was known.

When Ardan landed on top of a tree trunk, he spontaneously looked up, finding the figure of a Chrysanthemum jumping past him with two long wooden pegs in hand.

Chrysanthemum blue eyes narrowed sharply, alert and prepared to launch an attack on Ardan.

“Hiah!”

Chrysanthemums throw one peg while in the air, of course Ardan easily dodged.

Chrysanthemums landed on the ground floor, jumping up to the surface of the same tree trunk, running quickly toward Ardan while plucking the pegs that had stuck there, he said, then swung the two long pegs towards Ardan.

“Heah!”

“Hargh!”

The two swung each other's pegs, Chrysanthemum with wooden pegs and Ardan with iron pegs. The clash of the four pegs had caused a gust of wind so hard they launched an attack.

The two held each other back, insisting on pushing each other.

On the sidelines resisting the Chrysanthemum attack, Ardan had a smile. “I don't think, my strength is also fighting. It's not wrong I have a crush on you.”

“Heh?” The phrase managed to make the Chrysanthemum lose focus.

Ardan pushed Chrysanthemum back a few steps. When Ardan swung both of his pegs towards the Chrysanthemum, the girl immediately jumped the salto backwards avoiding him.

When the Chrysanthemum landed, Ardan instead flew several flying pegs, making the girl forced to several times jump back and forth to avoid it, and the pegs were stuck in a position not careless.

“Why? Starting to get caught up in my charms, huh?” ask Ardan confidently.

With both iron pegs in hand, Ardan dashed towards Chrysanthemum. He had hit a few pegs that stuck there, making Chrysanthemum hearing disturbed.

“Ugh..!” The chrysanthemum grimaced feeling an uncomfortable hum in both ears due to the sound of the iron clink.

Ardan again tried to make Chrysanthemum more lost focus. “Oh, yes! That was, you were really naughty, huh. The fad of my chest. If you want, ‘kan stay say aja.”

“Hah?”

Chrysanthemum defense is increasingly slack, this opportunity is certainly not wasted Ardan.

“Because of you,” muttered cunning Ardan.

Ardan kicked both Chrysanthemum calves at once, making the girl's body collapse. Then, Ardan wants to continue the attack by thrusting both pegs into the side of the Chrysanthemum shirt so that the girl can not rise again, automatically Chrysanthemum will be declared dead.

“Resurrection Weapon: Wood Gauntlet!”

Spontaneous Ardan glanced back, finding Nadia's figure had suddenly jumped high above him, about to lung at Ardan with fists from both hands that had been enveloped by an array of hardwood trunks.

“Keep you away from my friend!”

Ardan's intention to abort the Chrysanthemum. Forced to jump high to the side, dodging Nadia's fist attack. The fist looks successful in making the wooden sticks they incandescent crushed.

If only Ardan could resist the attack, he would still get Nadia's fist. Since the girl had already taken out the Resurrection Weapon, her attack power would automatically increase.

Ardan landed on the floor with both pegs still faithfully in hand, while Nadia stared intently at the young man on top of the trunk of the vines.

“Kris, are you okay?” Nadia tried to help Chrysanthemum stand up. “Still able to fight Bang Ardan?”

The chrysanthemum that was now standing next to Nadia was about to answer, but was restrained because Ardan spoke first.

“Wah, wow, wow.... I used a gun, nih.”

Spontaneously the two girls stared seriously at Ardan.

Ardan had a chance to twist the iron peg, shouldered one peg on the shoulder, then he smiled lightly, “Start feeling cornered, yes?”

Both of Nadia's bright blue eyes bulged furiously, unable to accept being rubbed so with her rancid style. Really, Ardan's toughness always managed to make Nadia ride apitam.

“Argh! Bang Ardan, you really—.”

“Wait, Nad!”

Nadia turned her head as Chrysanthemum grabbed her hand, restraining the blonde girl from just attacking first.

“You need to stay focused. Don't be lured into Senior Ardan's words. He was deliberately playing with our emotions.”

“Ap—.”

Nadia again saw Ardan who is currently still standing with a long peg shouldered on the shoulder and still brighten her typical smile.

Chrysanthemum again said, “Since the beginning, he deliberately provoked your emotions to make you act rashly. And he also tried to make me lose focus.”

“If until one's emotions and feelings are chaotic in the fight, then the person will lose the focus of the fight. That's how Senior Ardan makes us weaker.”

“Senior Ardan deliberately mocking us.”

In the stands, the Taruna-Taruni and staff were forced to watch the fight of the three of them through the monitors available around the arena because the field was covered by the forest made by Nadia.

Rafa who saw the fight also had a chance to guess that Chrysanthemum and Nadia only realized that they had been played by Ardan.

“Nadia forgot, yes, if one of Ardan's fighting tactics is to lure the opponent's emotions?” rafa said while looking at the wide monitor there.

“Nekat also, yes, Ardan's fighting tactics.” Damar leaned the body on the chair. “Typically, people if again emotions surely his strength will increase.”

“Let the strength of people increase until they can destroy the afterlife too, if the emotions are not stable, just like bo’ong,” circas Rafa. “Sebego-bego Ardan about strategy lessons, if Ardan knows the tactics of fighting in the middle of the fight, he will still excel.”

Rafa continued seriously, “What is needed in a direct fight like this is technique, tactics, and how alert one can read the situation as well as the movement of the enemy. So, it is not impossible if even the sick can win from the strong. All the formulas will be spoiled so if the emotions and feelings are brought together.”

“And that loophole that Ardan used to paralyze his enemies. Ardan is indeed strong, but he does not need to waste more energy if he can make his enemy weak just by dropping their mentality.”

Rafa glanced at Damar through the tail of his eyes. “So, do not be surprised if the strange nature of Ardan is maintained. Because of his irritating nature he can apply in the fight.”

Damar begins to understand why in every fight Ardan is always chatty and likes to mock the enemy. Apparently, actions that look ridiculous in the eyes of others can instead be used as a surefire way to weaken the enemy mentally.

If the enemy's mentality is chaotic, then his physique is also unstable. And in that moment, Ardan was able to manipulate the situation to have victory side with him.

Rafa spoke again, “Actually, mocking people in the fight can also make the heart relieved, you know.”

Damar was a little surprised to hear that. “Kok sounds baga?”

“Kan name fight or war it must be tega-tega’an. If you make good not fight his name, but silaturahmi.”

“Ha-ha, I can. So gemes want to plop ‘pala Mr use this chair,” mocked Damar, somewhat upset the same led Rafa.

“Please if you do not want to get blessing from me to make there marry my sister.”

“Ukh!”

And Damar is one of the victims of the tactics to destroy the enemy's mentality through ridicule.
