《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 6 : The Mysterious Man's Strength?
Advertisement
As I charged to tackle the mysterious man, he dodged it with ease and stood there waiting for the next attack. For the next 10 minutes it seemed as though he wasn't trying to attack me rather simply dodging my attacks at him. "Come on you old man! Are you to scared to fight back? Do you really think I would go easy on you for being old?" I said, taunting him to attack. When I charged again, he said, " I will not attack because I do not need to. You will lose all your stamina before I even need to attack, and I'm not that old, you little squirt." This time I decided to call out my Soul Emifer, as I know that there is no time limit. When I called it out, I learned a few tricks about how to use it and I split the rock into 8 pieces, afterwards I shaped each of those pieces into different shapes, one was a gun, another was a sword, another hammer, a pickaxe, an axe, a shovel, and two more swords.
With those 8 items, I firstly through a shovel at him. Afterwards I supposed to the three possible places he could dodge it and sent the pickaxe and hammer. Afterwards when he went to the spot I wanted, I cut the tree around that area, then I would corner him with the swords and send the final blow via gun. Atleast I thought it was foolproof. The plan worked up until i shot him, when he simply dodged it all by jumping up and to the side. "Well done, sonny! If that was any other person in the entire planet, they would have died, consider yourself unlucky! I suppose I better attack now!"
When he came to attack, his fists were like bullets, I couldn't see them but there was one single problem I was facing. The fact that it didnt hurt me at all, it felt like a baby trying to knock down an adult. "Really, old man? You are this weak?" I said, and he laughed , saying, " Oh, but I didn't even hit you once, because I know that it would have killed you, if you want to see my strength, come at me, and I'll knock you out with a flick." he said, taunting me this time. I knew that was physically impossible unless you're some monster, but I didn't care, I went for the punch, and hell if I was to know, that single flick actually did send me flying. when I hit the fence, i coughed out some blood, saying, "Dammit, why.. am... I.... so.... weak."

After that I was taken to the Mysterious Man's House and he healed my wound. "First of all, I have a name, but since it is classified, simply call me Sensei from now on." When he came to heal me, it happened pretty instantly, and I thought what could his SE be? Is it healing, jumping, insane strength, just what could it be?! After healing my wound, he told me that the next day we will start our training. I was partially excited and partially down for it. I still had no clue where Hartsen~Sensei was and where the hell I was.I asked him where we are and he said, "We are in China, where most 'Kung Fu' masters where born. To be honest, Kung Fu was a means of hiding the identity of Soul Emifers to this world, and 'Kung Fu' was meant to destroy the spirits, but that aside, let us start our training!"
The first thing he told me was to go the the great wall and run all the way around it. "No way, That's impossible! No human could do that." And then Sensei told me, "If I'm not back here within 10 minutes, then consider me dead." and with that he ran, he ran like a beast. After 8 minutes there was still no sign of him and I was getting bored, so I decided to summon my Soul Emifer and try to strengthen it in a few ways, but mainly to increase my control on the weapons I create. Sure enough the moment the clock hit 10 minutes, he was there, and with a few bags of stuff. "Damn, I was here by 5 minutes, but since I said 10 I decided to buy us some food and snacks. Anyways, do you understand the capability of your SE? You just need to try."

I felt a bit encouraged so I decided to run around as well, and he proprosed the same deal, "If you come here by 10 minutes, I will teach you everything I mastered, elsewise your training will get more intense from the day onward." and with that I ran off, as fast as I could. I continued running and running around to see how far I will go, but it didn't seem like I was going anywhere, but I continued on running. My feet where aching and I couldn't tell where I was. Finally, when I met Sensei he told me two things. "First of all, its been 3 hours, and second of all for an entire loop there would have been atleast more than 3~4 hours for you, so I decided to make it easier." Before hearing his explanation I dropped down on the stone and fainted.
When I woke up, it was Sensei and he said, "Wakey Wakey! Your wounds are fixed and your stamina is back, time for some more intense training!" With that he took me to the backyard and told me to dig. To dig until you see stone, and then break the stone with your hand. "Your training will end when I see a piece of stone on your hand and your knuckles bleeding." With that we both started pummeling the ground. Sure enough, both of us got to the dirt, and with one massive punch, Sensei broke a massive hole into the ground, making a miniature ravine. I to, tried to do that but with no avail. Then he told me, "For the next 2 weeks, we will continue these two types of training, and when the time comes, after two weeks you will see how much stronger you are." With that I started my training for the next two weeks and I was ready to become stronger than before. I walked to Sensei's house, ready to endure the suffering of the next 2 weeks.

Parallel worlds or other worlds. The existence of infinite existence where it only exists in science fiction like in comics, books, or cartoons. We, humans, are so fond of that fiction idea, imagining a thousand worlds where we can have different appearances, lives, and selves. For example, a murderer who's been living in the underbelly of society in the dark might be the most successful businessman in an alternate timeline or reality. The infinite possibilities we could have, that's why the idea of parallel worlds revolves around "what if", " I should've...", etc. The wishful thinking that how we could have done it better or in a word, "regret". Other than that, it's still from fiction. The concept of it only exists in our imaginary minds. But, it all changed when 20 students from an ordinary high school were caught in a mysterious phenomenon. A surge of blue light crawled across the whole room, symbols, lines, and geometric patterns emerged slowly. The light slowly grew brighter and brighter, in a blink of an eye, all of them vanished.

His Trophy | Jerome Valeska
"Oh and Jim, Jim Gordon?" Jerome peered into the camera as if to yell out to an audience: "I have Rory here," he turned the camera towards Jim's daughter and revealed to the audience a girl that had been beaten and tormented, she was gaged and her eyes didn't look at the camera but above the lens; at Jerome who was holding the camera."Say hi to Daddy, doll face," he jeered from behind the camera. She looked down the lens and shook her head as if to tell Jim not to try. The camera went back to Jerome."She's a beauty isn't she, Jimbo," Jerome smirked into the camera, his laughter becoming harsh and wild: "and she's all mine, you try anything, and I mean anything, I kill her. She's my prisoner, my reward, and you're not taking her away from me Jimmy boy, on no, not this time" his words were spoken through waves of laughter.***Rory Gordan is the stepdaughter of Jim Gordon. Her mother moved a lot so Rory was born in Gotham City but raised in England and from the age of 10 she had been bouncing from one country to another with her mother. However, when she turned 17 she had grown tired of the constant change of moving and decided to move to America. It was when she was visiting her long term boyfriend when her life got flipped upside down, not only did she meet one of the craziest boys on the planet, but she discovered that she had a gift that would curse her forever. This story is a collection of scenes rather than a flowing plot, so its chronological but it skips scenes and jumps back and forth between different perspectives. The story is under editing, so it'll get more cohesive over time.••• I do not own any characters or plot lines from the tv show. However, all original characters like Rory do belong to me.Total Word Count [33,674]
