I Became The Mafia Boss Inside The Novel

101 Statement (3)

Looking at the students exiting the door one by one, Elias saw a student suddenly stop by the exit to give him a deep look.

The student was a man with long black hair and a thin, muscular build. He had a sharp and stern gaze that made him seem mature beyond his years.

After a some digging up, Elias realized why the man felt quite familiar. He recognized the student as a minor antagonist in the novel.

"Soulsword" Aram Telford, the first minor antagonist.

Currently, Aram Terfold was looking at him deeply with no obvious intentions. But Elias immediately assumed it was bad.

<nulli>'Huh? Is this punk looking for trouble? This guy, is he picking a fight..?'

Thinking of something, Elias frowned and stared back at Aram Telford as he released a bit of his aura.

<nullb>[Gaze of Intimidation]—!

At that moment, Aram was suddenly frozen in place by Elias gaze. A cold chill suddenly crawled on his spine, making his hair stand in utter terror.

He realized he couldn't move at all. No, rather, he could—but his body was too afraid to even make the slightest movement.

<nulli>'What's this...'

Aram Telford shriveled in fear. He felt like there was a deadly, vicious fanged serpent slowly moving around his neck.

And the fangs of the serpent were just slightly above his skin, threatening to devour him at the slightest mishap he could possibly make.

<nulli>'W-what the...'

Overwhelmed by terror, Aram reeled back in disbelief as he snapped back to reality. He hurriedly examined his neck twice.

After feeling it up and felt there was no snake hanging around him, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

He was <nulli>alive. Safe and sound. There was no snake, but there was even something more terrifying than a snake.

Aram suddenly remembered something and raised his gaze. His pupils dilated from immense terror while looking at Elias.

Seeing his current state, Elias gave a small smile.

"You alright?"

Aram unconsciously took a step back out of fear. Without hesitation, he immediately left the lecture hall without speaking a single word.

<nulli>Bam!

"Hey! Watch where you're going!"

A student complained in anger as Aram Telford accidentally barged against them in a hurry.

But Aram couldn't give a damn and continued to run away.

"Fucking punk!"

The student grumbled under his breath before shaking his head. He left the lecture hall in a grumpy mood.

The students were confused about what had just happened but didn't think too much about it and simply went their own ways.

But Hajin, who was beside Elias, saw the entire thing about Aram and couldn't help but snicker.

"Tsk, it seems like you look as hideous as Ragna now that you can make a student run away in fear from just a gaze. Impressive."

"Shut up."

Elias rolled his eyes.

At this moment, Ragna approached them while dragging a violet-haired man along with him.

"What am I gonna do with this idiot?"

"Just throw him away."

Elias replied casually as though they were taking out mere trash.

Hearing their words, Leonard Sodium felt immaculate fury erupt within him as his eyes turned bloodshot.

But before he could even protest or fight back, Ragna laughed playfully and threw him outside the lecture hall.

"Whoo hee! Up we go!"

<nulli>Thud—!

Leonard abruptly fell on the ground head first. His eyes blanked out in sheer fury. He felt his anger rise to the roof, breaking the limits of what he had even thought possible.

After being released, he immediately stood up while trembling in anger. He was made like a fucking joke.

"You.... <nulli>you... fuckers..."

Leonard felt a mix of embarrassment and fury fill him up, making his mind dizzy. It was his first day of school and he was already made a joke. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺

Overwhelmed by anger, he gritted his teeth as prepared to attack...

...But at that moment, Ragna's neck suddenly twisted sideways as he stared at Leonard with a demonic grin.

At that moment, Leonard suddenly froze in place.

Ragna had a wicked, dangerous smile on his face. It was an expression that could only be described as demonic.

Leonard could not help but freeze in place over fear. He was not fighting a human—but a goddamn monster.

A monster twice his size with a face even more terrifying than a demon. At this moment, he was starting to regret standing up for himself.

Terror suddenly seeped into Leonard's body, making him unable to move an inch. It was a different type of fear—a primal sense of fear.

But very soon, Ragna turned away his gaze and left with Hajin, following Elias away the hallways.

"Hajin, Ragna. Let's go. We still have to register for our club. Don't waste your time on small fries."

After Ragna left, Leonard finally snapped back from reality and released a heavy breath.

"What the... what the fuck... was <nulli>that?!"

While the three of them walked along the hallways, Hajin thought back to earlier and asked curiously.

"Do you really plan to lead the entire first year? I didn't think of you as someone who would do something like that. Ain't it too troublesome?"

Hearing that, Elias frowned slightly before shaking his head.

"It's part of my plan, don't worry about it."

If he were being honest, he didn't like it either.

But for the sake of the bigger picture, he had to do it. He had to act the part. He needed to proclaim himself as the leader of the first year for his plans.

<nulli>Even if he didn't really fit the part.

To conquer the academy, one needed not just competent and strong allies but also a large group of followers or henchmen behind them.

By becoming the de-facto leader of the entire first year, Elias was essentially making every freshman his follower by name.

Of course, that was only by name. It didn't really have any substance but that was enough for now. His goal in doing this was the start a reputation for himself.

By making a name for himself as the leader of the first years, he could attract some of the first-year students to his club.

"Alright then, you're the boss."

Hajin shrugged and didn't pursue the topic.
