Chapter 152

Mikael was dumbfounded, he knew the answer to Lane's question. It was agonizing, waking up finding that everything changed. His family vanished leaving him lonely. Realizing that his role in this world was nothing, it felt like he was alone inside a strange world.

He was on the sofa, thinking about Lane, the child was not the girl that he remembered. He could see the hatred in her eyes. He was watching the television but his mind was drifting.

"Nyah... Mmmunyah..."

Furrneka was sleeping, snuggled close to him. He heard her purring and he smiled, yes he lost many things but he gained others. He found the people who filled his heart, Klein became close to him. Patriarch treated him like a grandson. He met the women who deeply loved him. Niña and Furrneka, he cherished them. He would die if any of them suffer.

He would gladly sacrifice his life for them, he knew that his principles were fucked up but who cares?

He stroked Furrneka's hair, the cat twitched yet she didn't wake up. Instead, she closely cuddled.

"I am blessed, thanks to you.

Mikael lightly kissed her head.

"I don't know what happened to Lane but I will treat her like my little sister. If I saw her again, I will talk to her…"

He said.

He was not sure if Lane would hear his story but he already resolved his guts to talk to her. Maybe a large tree would hit him but he decided to do it.

On the television, he saw the Hunters that participated in the Individual Match, they were tough and their Skills were powerful. The royal rumble finished and the elimination round was going to start tomorrow.

………

......

...

{Kid… how long will you keep closing your ears? Just use me already.}

A roaring voice is hidden in the dark.

..........

......

....

Ella Futsoah. She was a Hunter that reached the elimination round. As a woman who became Rank 3 of the 4th batch Awakening, she was confident that she could win the tournament. Yet, she didn't know that there was a dark horse who appeared and rampaged in the Individual Match. Her Guild members were believing that she could be the champion.

The day of the elimination round came, the people were cheering and the place was shaking because of their noises.

Ella was gonna go first, her opponent was a young man, maybe in the early twenties.

The name of the man was Colt Beckett, but it was not his real name. Only a few people knew his identity.

They entered the ring and the match started.

Ella cast her Skill and small particles of metals encircled her. The metals zoomed in to Colt but the young man didn't move.

The metals hit him, but the Skill returned back at Ella. She was surprised and she controlled her metals again.

Colt was standing on the platform, he smirked, he attack didn't hurt him. Ella was frustrated about his nonchalant attitude. She decided to use her full power to beat him. She didn't know that her decision would cause her defeat.

The metals were forming into three large talons. They swirled in the midair and they were creating pressure. The air was burning and it was hard to breathe.

"Aahhhh!!!"

She screamed and attacked!

Colt waved his hand and the incoming talons stopped. They were only two inches away from him, the spinning talons were halted and he returned it to Ella. But this time, it was stronger and hard to control!!

The talons hit Ella and she tossed and rolled into the ground. She was defeated within a minute.

[Colt Rothschild]

[Level 475]

[Skills]

[1. Counter- the opponent's attack will be countered.]

[……]

[………]

Colt left the place with a swag attitude, he looked at the tinted windows. Perhaps his brother was watching him, no matter what, he would show him his strength.

He walked away and he didn't feel the shadow looming near the pathway.

...

"It seems like your brother is serious. Ella Futsoah is the strongest contender for the finals but he defeated her. Kuku, you are blessed, someone wants to follow your path. "

Kyle was watching the big screen, he was inside the VIP room of the stadium. Together with him, Christian and Hakase were watching too.

Christian acted nonchalantly, he knew that his little brother wanted to show his power.

"It's not a big deal, I'm more curious about Mikael. I'm wanted to see how that man changed. I don't have the time to talk to him… How about you? Do you want to see him, though I already knew that you can't? Maybe Mikael would stab you with his weapon."

Christian shrugged, Secretary Hakase was furious seeing his boss getting mocked. He utilized his long sword to slash him but Christian blocked it. The long sword halted in the midair, Christian chuckled watching Hakase's reaction.

"Hakase, stop. Christian is the Vice Guildleader so you must respect him. Besides, I heard that you want to file a leave for a month so that you can level, Christian won't let you if you try to hurt him."

Hakase gritted his teeth still, he nodded. The weapon vanished leaving the three people in a bad atmosphere.

"Hm, you said that Mikael hates me. Well, I don't have any words to refute that. Though I believe what I did was the right thing."

Kyle confidently said, he determined that sacrifices were always part of the greater good. Yes, he threatened Niña and he incurred hatred. Even Klein loathed him, but he didn't care. His goal was to save the world, not to get friendly and play happy family.

Christian chuckled, he understood that this man was already crazy since the first time they met.

"Then how about Miriam, didn't you feel any guilt when you hurt her? I'm not sure what the two of you talked but I think you need to meet your child. Lemar had the same eyes like you but he's not cold-hearted. "

"......"

Kyle didn't answer that one, after all, he didn't have the right to be a father. He was afraid to see his son… Kyle was eccentric and insane, he didn't want his son to know it. Yes, what happened at that time was an accident… but he wanted it to happened.

"I think the kid is missing you. I know you have the tendency to go crazy but we already have enough knowledge about Corruption. I can subdue you if that happened again. Well, if you want to, I can kill you."

Christian said, out of all Hunter in the Redemption, he was the only one who could fight this man equally...
