Chapter 246 Competition
(This chapter isn't edited yet)
The next day, Noah, Maggy and Bel said goodbye to Carlos' family, and decided to return to the Capital.
Knowing the looming crisis, Noah knew he needed to get stronger even faster.
He noticed that the stronger he got, the longer it took to level up, and he was still in Rank C, until reaching Rank S would be a long journey, which he would have to dedicate a lot in those two years. Not only to reach Rank S, but to get stronger than Rank S, after all, the weakest general was Rank S, the strongest would be at what level?
With that in mind, Noah let Maggy and Bel ride on the unicorn's back while he followed it flying not far away.
As much as the three of them could fit on the unicorn's back, it was extremely uncomfortable, so Noah let the two ride unconcernedly while it flew by itself.
But along the way, something surprised Noah. He hadn't thought about it before, but when it happened he realized how he had ignored something so obvious.
The unicorn was at over 300 km
/h, Noah was working hard to maintain that speed during the flight too, both to train the flight and to get back to the city faster, but at some point, Bel jumped off the back of the unicorn and spread two large pairs of demonic wings before flying beside Noah with a big smile on his face.
"Hehe, I can fly too, you know?
" He asked with an expression of pride.
Noah laughed at that scene.
"For some reason I forgot you could probably fly too.
"
"In hell, we had a few games, my favorite was flying tag. Want to play?
" Bel asked with a little hope.
Noah saw Bel's excitement and responded.
"Alright, let's try.
"
"Come on Bel, Noah is very powerful, you have to work hard to beat him!
" Maggy prodded on the ground, which made Noah break into an embarrassed smile, knowing Bel was more powerful than he was.
But strangely, Bel took Maggy's words very seriously and nodded her head in agreement.
Noah saw this and swallowed hard.
In the blink of an eye, Bel flew at a speed much faster than Noah's and brushed against him.
"Got you, now it's with you.
" Before quickly flying in another direction.
Seeing this Noah was shocked, he was at 300 km
/h and felt he was almost at his limit, but the speed Bel demonstrated now made it clear that he had flown at least 300 km
/h, forcing Noah to truly dedicate himself.
'I'm glad that killing Shadow S greatly increased my agility, otherwise I would be destroyed.' Noah thought as he accelerated his own flight as fast as he could go.
Unfortunately, even going as fast as possible, Noah couldn't reach Bel as he only got 400 km
/h, forcing Noah to use another tactic.
**Bamf**
Noah burst into flames, appearing just inches from Bel, touching him quickly before teleporting back in and saying.
"Got you, now it's with you!
"
Bel was shocked, he knew Noah had this ability, as he had already seen Noah teleport the night before, but just as Noah had forgotten that Bel could probably fly, Bel forgot that Noah could teleport too.
"You are cheating!
" Bel yelled indignantly.
"This isn't cheating, I'm just using my resources hehe.
" Noah gave an evil laugh.
"Yeah? Alright then let's play like this!
" Bel began to fly even faster, to the point where Noah could only see smudges. Probably Bel was flying at almost 1,000 km
/h.
Every time Bel would touch Noah, Noah would teleport away, causing Bel to change course quickly and speed up even more.
Sometimes when Bel would touch Noah, Noah would summon an imp between the two of them and make Bel just be able to touch the imp, giving Noah enough time to escape once more.
This kind of game, although it sounds very simple, but for Noah it was very stressful. He had to stay on alert all the time, putting immense mental strain on himself.
Even more so when Noah heard an explosion.
Looking around he was confused, but when he saw that the explosion had come from where Bel had previously been, Noah understood.
Bel had broken through the sound barrier, flying at over 1,200 km
/h.
At this point Noah didn't have much to fight back, Bel was on another level in terms of speed.
After Bel caught Noah, he continued to fly faster than the speed of sound, not giving Noah a chance to catch him once.
After a few minutes Noah finally started to run out of energy and gave up.
"I give up, you're the best, Bel.
" Noah said pretending to be sad for the defeat, but showing a small smirk at the little boy's happiness.
Bel was flying in circles and cheering the victory, while Maggy who was on the unicorn's back screamed and laughed cheering with him.
Noah didn't feel hurt that Maggy was celebrating Bel's victory and his defeat, after all, this was just a joke between the two of them, and seeing the happiness of the two children, Noah knew it had been worth it.
"Alright, as I lost the game, I guess I have to give you guys a prize, right?
" Noah told the two, which attracted Maggy who stopped screaming immediately, and Bel, who flew back to the unicorn with a curious, excited look.
"What prize?!
" He asked.
"Let's go out for ice cream! I'll pay.
" Noah said with a smile.
Hearing this, Maggy started screaming and cheering, while Bel also screamed and cheered along with her, as if they had received a grand prize.
But after they stopped celebrating, Bel asked a question that made Noah gasp.
"What is ice cream?
"
'Pffft, you were celebrating so happily and didn't even know what prize you were going to win?! haha ha.'
