Chapter 88: The Vice-Captain

The arrow and the fireball slammed into each other, and a massive explosion occurred right in front of Randy!

BOOM!

Randy was thrown back by the explosion, and he slammed into the wall behind him! He let out a cough as some smoke got into his mouth, and he snarled in anger as he looked up to see the woman standing there nonchalantly and looking down at him. How dare you!?

"You fucking bit—!"

"That’s enough! The winner of the duel is Gina Fey!"

A voice shouted from the side, and Randy turned to see the vice-captain of the Panthers guild, a woman in her mid-twenties with short blond hair and an impressive, toned figure. Her eyes were a piercing green, and her face was very mature, making it difficult for anyone to stand up to her glare. She had offered to stand in as the referee for this fight, and she was just as shocked at the massive improvement she noticed in Gina.

Gina had not been this strong the last time they trained, and in their last fight, Randy was able to overwhelm her and defeat her because she didn’t have the ability to make more than five arrows. The fact that she had grown this quickly was astonishing!

The vice-captain would have loved to keep the fight going so that she could see what else Gina could do, but she could see the anger in Randy’s eyes, and she knew that if she allowed the fight to go on, then he would do something that might actually hurt Gina. Randy was also stronger than what he had shown here, and the only reason he was this overwhelmed was because he never expected Gina to grow this quickly. It was a battle that he was never going to win from the start.

"This is bullshit! Why did you end it already!? We were just getting started!"

Randy shouted in anger when the vice-captain ended the match! He was about to really get serious, and the vice-captain just ended it like that!? It wasn’t fair!

This was the first time that Randy would be losing a fight to anyone in the Panthers guild other than the leader. Even the vice-captain hadn’t ever beaten him before, so he was undeniably pissed! But the vice-captain just narrowed her eyes into a thin line, and Randy felt his anger bleeding away at the intense look in her gaze.

"I said the fight is over, Randy. Hit the showers. You can have another mock battle tomorrow."

Randy grit his teeth in annoyance before turning to give Gina a heavy glare. Gina was just standing there and looking at him innocently, and Randy had never hated a person in his life more than he did at that moment. This bitch was going to get what was coming to her. He swore it!

Randy turned away with a growl while swearing under his breath and left to get a shower. Once he was gone, Gina finally released a sigh of relief, and her face broke into a happy smile! She couldn’t believe she won!

’How did I get this strong?’

Even Gina was shocked at the sudden increase in strength that she could feel! It was like her mana was suddenly listening to her every order, and she wasn’t wasting a single bit of control compared to before! Gina tried to think back and see if there was anything that made her suddenly have such power, but no matter how hard she thought about it, she just couldn’t think of anything.

"That was impressive, Gina. I always knew you had it in you."

The vice-captain of the guild came up to Gina after Randy had left and spoke with a wide smile on her face. Gina gave the woman a smile in return and thanked her for her kind words. The vice-captain’s name was Jane, and she was a brawler-type superhuman who could reinforce her body with rocks to increase her strength. She was also a C-rank superhuman, but at that moment, the vice-captain knew that both Randy and Gina were far stronger than her.

In truth, the only reason why the vice-captain was still the vice-captain was because she was married to the leader of the guild, and the other members of the guild respected her. There had already been a lot of rumors going around that one of the stronger members of the guild deserved to be the vice-captain, and Jane was already prepared to step down since she knew that keeping her position would only lead to more problems for the guild.

She couldn’t use nepotism to hold onto something like this when she knew that there were others better suited for the position.

"Thank you, ma’am. I just... tried my best."

Gina still didn’t know how to explain what had happened, so she decided that it would be best to just roll with it. Besides, she wasn’t lying when she said that she did her best. She always wanted to beat Randy, and she tried her best to do that. It was just surprising that it actually worked.

Jane smiled at Gina’s humility. Jane had been planning to step down for a while now, and the one person that Jane wanted to give the position of vice-captain to was Gina. Other than her husband and Randy, Gina was the strongest member of the Panthers guild, and her ability to support any team from the rear with her wind arrows was unmatched.

Everybody else wanted Randy to be the vice-captain, but even though the rest of the guild couldn’t see the twisted nature that Randy had, Jane could easily read him like a book. The smiles and kind words that Randy gave out were just an act that he was putting on to make others like him more. Jane knew that Randy was really just a narcissistic bastard and was more likely to use his position of power to oppress others than to boost the guild.

It was because of this one reason that Jane was still holding onto the position, just so that she could keep it away from him. But now that Jane was certain that Gina was this strong, she felt like she could finally hand over her mantle.

"I’m glad that you’re finally growing into what I always knew you could be. But it’s surprising. You weren’t able to make more than five arrows the last time I saw you, and you weren’t outputting this much power with each one. Did something happen to you recently?"

Jane was still curious about what made Gina so powerful, but Gina just shook her head and said that she just tried her best again. Gina couldn’t explain it even if she wanted to, and Jane could see that Gina was serious.

Jane smiled before she decided to change the topic.

"I’ve actually been meaning to talk to you recently about something. It’s pretty serious, so please consider it properly, okay? My husband and I have been thinking of giving you the position of vice-captain."

Gina blinked in surprise when she heard this, and a happy feeling surged from inside her when she realized what this implied! Everyone in the guild had been talking about there being a new vice-captain, and Gina had never put any thought into it because everyone always said it was going to be Randy! The fact that she was being considered for the role meant there was a chance she would get it too!
