Ascension Of The Elder 115 Chapter 115 Karaoke Competition

"We will, we will rock you."

*Stomp, stomp, clap, stomp, stomp, clap*

Elena picked up on the beat quickly and began copying what Kyle was doing. Miranda, Clara and Alena realised what Elena and Kyle were doing and also joined in.

Gradually more and more people got into the beat and began stomping and clapping along with them. Leonard and Landon along with their wives also began playing along much to the annoyance of the overseer and the head of the Miles family.

Eventually the entire venue was alive with the beat and Bruno was looking around with a silly grin on his face while his opponent was just confused. Bruno began moving in time with the beat and was just playing around enjoying the atmosphere.

The fight went much like the last one with the opponent being defeated quickly but no one was bothered as this turned out to be great fun with the audience partic.i.p.ation.

"Your son seems rather unbridled and without the decorum of a n.o.ble."

It looked like the overseer wasn't impressed with Kyle's impromptu concert while the head of the miles family was gripping the armrest of his chair with enough force that it was making cracking sounds.

"Please he's just a child and enjoying himself there's nothing wrong with that is there? I think we could all do with loosening up sometimes."

Landon responded with a smile while thinking it was over but little did he know that this was only the start. Whenever Kyle or Bruno went up one of them would do something to mess around including Mexican waves, beat boxing, singing, Kyle even did the robot and threw in the occasional soccer chant.

"Who ate all the pies, who ate all the pies you fat bast....what?"

Just as Kyle was in the flow an official approached him while trying to keep a straight face as he really wanted to laugh at Kyle's hi jinks.

"Excuse me but the overseer has asked if you can cease this behaviour?"

"Why it isn't against any rules and everyone seems to be enjoying it."

While most of the crowd was laughing and having fun like they were at a festival it was not wholly accurate that everyone was having fun because all of the members of the Miles family looked like they had swallowed a c.o.c.kroach as most of the time Kyle was making fun of their members when they entered the stage.

Kyle thought for a second as he knew that even with his Swiss cheese memory he wouldn't have had the nerve to do this in his past life. The courage and confidence to make an a.s.s out of yourself without a care for what may come after was something that he had only gained after his first death.

Kyle looked to the raised platform where his father and the other leaders were seated and smiled when he saw the difference between the leaders. Landon and Leonard were openly laughing while Maria and Gemma had tears in their eyes from trying not to laugh.

The head of the Tor family had a red face and his lips were quivering and Kyle knew it would only take a little push and he would also be laughing. The overseer and the head of the Miles family had red eyes and looked like they wanted to bash his skull in so seeing this Kyle gave them a little wave before he headed up for his next fight.

There were no surprises in the junior bracket besides Kyle antagonising everyone and eventually Kyle and Bruno ended up in the final facing each other. Bruno took one look at Kyle before he bowed out.

"Nope I'm not even going to try, if we both get to the finals we can fight just for the show."

Those present were a bit dissatisfied with this as they were curious about who of these two unknown kids was the stronger because neither of them had to show any real strength as they defeated their opponents in just a few moves.

"Well with the junior bouts over I need to ask if the winners wish to attempt to fight in the intermediate bout."

"Of course."

"Yup."

Kyle and Bruno responded to the referee's question with an affirmation before they returned to the bench and waited to be called up for the next round.

In the first round of the intermediate bout Clyde was up. Kyle didn't make fun or do anything to distract him and watched him closely while a.n.a.lysing his combat skills. Clyde was an a.n.a.lytical fighter and would test his opponent looking for weaknesses before striking directly.

Clyde's opponent couldn't understand what he was doing and after Clyde had sent a few probing attacks at him struck out using a martial skill. This skill was merely condensing mana around his fist and blasting it forward.

Clyde avoided this before the strike was even unleashed by seeing how his opponent was standing and moving sideways as the strike can only be fired in a straight line. As the strike was released Clyde moved parallel to the force and struck the opponent in the sternum knocking him down.

The crowd saw the strike and were impressed with the power behind it but from their view it looked like Clyde knew what was coming and dodged by a hairs breadth before countering earning him cheers from everyone.

Clyde's opponent was lying on his back while rubbing his chest; Clyde walked over to him and questioned him.

"Do you concede?"

"Yes I give up you're too strong for me."

"Winner Clyde of the Powell family."

With the announcement made Clyde held out his hand and helped up his opponent before they shook hands and returned to the bench.

"So Kyle how did I do?"

Clyde asked when he returned to the bench. A couple of those around heard the question and thought this older cousin was fis.h.i.+ng for compliments from his little cousin.

"Not bad but you could have defeated him before he used his skill if you were a bit more aggressive and your footwork still needs work you should have been able to cover that distance quicker than that."

Kyle responded with his critique, Clyde listened to Kyle before nodding his head. As his teacher Kyle had every right to a.n.a.lyse his fight and give him direction. Everyone else who heard this was surprised and were wondering what the true relations.h.i.+p was between these cousins.

Willem was in the next bout and he looked to Kyle with provocation in his gaze. Everyone could see the conflict between these young men and were looking forward to what would happen if and when they fought.

Kyle saw this look and decided to carry on s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g around and took on a thoughtful look on his face as he was scouring his memory to find something to mess with Willem.

As the fight was just about to commence Kyle began singing to himself but loudly enough that everyone could hear what he was singing.

"She's a bad mama jama...."

When Willem heard this he stumbled and almost fell and the members of the Miles family all looked at Kyle with strange looks. Everyone present could see the strange atmosphere while Kyle just carried on singing away without a care in the world.

The head of the Miles family was looking between Landon and Kyle who was moving along with his song. Willem looked furious and suddenly attacked his opponent with force knocking him clean out of the arena with a flash of mana when they made contact.

"Winner Willem of the Miles family."

Willem left the stage after this and walked to his father who had waved him over. They stepped to the side and began talking quietly to each other; Kyle and Bruno were watching them with identical grins on their faces.

"What do you think they're talking about?"

Bruno asked while still grinning at them in an attempt to carry on messing with them.

"Well I would guess the patriarch is asking why Willem reacted in the way he did and Willem is telling him that I said to him I would take care of his mother now she was out."

"What do you mean?"

"Oh sorry I only included those who were involved in the mission but it doesn't matter now. That mission I went on with 'steel lotus' a little while ago was to free the female members of the Miles family who were treated like slaves and wh.o.r.es while being imprisoned."

"What is that true?"

"Pretty much, we got them out and have secured them somewhere safe until all this BS is dealt with."

"Well that's good to hear, what are you going to do with Willem though?"

"Don't worry about it I've got my plans and with the way the fights are laid out I should be fighting him if he defeats Clyde."

"Well that isn't going to happen."

"I wouldn't underestimate him. That strike was pretty fast and if Clyde gets. .h.i.t with that he may be forced to a ring out."

Bruno was surprised with Kyle opinion of Willem as he didn't seem to look down on him. Clyde had also heard this and rather than become angry he decided to be extra careful when dealing with Willem if Kyle felt he was dangerous.

"Kyle of the Powell family please enter the ring."

"Well looks like I'm up."

"Okay any requests?"

"Hum how about down with the sickness."

"Ohh ahh ahh ahh."
