Today Old Han let Sura go back to his apartment as only 2 days were left before his suspension ended, his body was swollen with bulging muscles making each of his step heavy, and carrying his bicycle on his back giving him a very imposing look. He still had his training uniform on, which was smeared with drops of blood, with dried blood sticking to his palm and feet.

“I can’t even ride my bicycle anymore….” Looking at the stone pavement and his naked steps, he felt superior for some reason. The people around him considered him a weirdo, except a training uniform covering his body, it was normal for people in the surrounding considering him a bulging freak.

He haven’t wash from the time he had started training, people can smell sweat and dried blood from a far, making some of the people puke on the site.

Why didn’t Uncle Han let me bath? Stroking his hair and seeing how elongated they have become. I have become a barbarian……. Barbarian… it’s a good name.

Wherever Sura went, people paused their step while staring at his barbaric figure, some even step back due to his smell.

“Bleg!.. *Cough!! I can’t even breathe properly…” Closing her mouth with a handkerchief, a girl who was walking with her friends commented, inside she was cursing as tears streamed down her face.

“Don’t look at him… he looks like a delinquent.” By her side another girl with cloth covering her mouth replied.

These kind of talk was happening all around Sura. You do know you are standing just 10 steps away from me… I can hear you properly.

Sura sighed, Well what can he even do? His body now looked like a gorilla.

When he reached his house, he directly went into shower and cleaned himself while tying his hair in a knot. Wearing his training clothes under his regular shirt, he messaged Brohimir.

“Oye! Brohimir… I am free now, if you want to hang out just pm me.”

It didn’t take long before Brohimir got a reply back. “Sorry Helius… but for the time you were busy.. I got myself a girl and we are already dating, so sorry… but meet you at school.”

Sura didn’t reply, the only thing he though was. Traitor. He was given free time, he was now better trained than before and he also haven’t slept from the last few days, as he was only able to rest for 3 hours per day.

Uncle didn’t had a machine to check SC… only in academy can I find out how far I have advanced.

And I don’t feel close to a breakthrough just yet, my body also looks unsightly than before.

Haha!! What wouldn’t I kill to see the faces of those guys? He remembered those classmates of his who came to beat him, at that time he was weak so he used some unconventional methods to win, but if he meets them again, maybe he can win without having to attack their crotch.

Vulture has ascended a realm, he stood at secondary rank arena, while in his front stood Minoh with his face exposed to public.

Minoh was someone who hated to hide his face, if you gonna fight, why not increase your popularity with it.

“So young and already reached Hunter realm!” Shaking his head in appraisal, Minoh looked at the guy he was asked to look out for.

“Brother Minoh… You praise me too much.” Even Vulture was feeling a little embarrassed. From the day he had broken through, everywhere he went, there were people appraising him all around. Even when his brother broke through, Gerald was not given so much attention.

After a small talk their fight began. Vulture entering the Hunter realm was now allowed to fight in higher rank fight.

Before the normal sight could see, both of them kicked each other simultaneously, generating a thunderous sound when their legs collided.

So strong from the beginning… this kid’s a monster. Feeling his leg vibrate due to collision, Minoh jumped back first and after cladding his fist with air, he shot out towards Vulture’s face.

Vulture predicting the attack, put his lashed leg down and then with his palm, he stopped the punch by grabbing at his wrist, and was going to counter-attack but his grab got loose and he was hit directly in the face, throwing pushing him back.

Shit! I got careless. Feeling his jaw dislocated, and backing up a little, he placed his jaw in place from under his mask.

Minoh didn’t attack Vulture immediately, instead he gave Vulture to cope up with his sudden attack.

*

“Don’t believe that you defeated me.. eee! This hand hurts.” In the Arena gym, Minoh sat while looking at the fallen Vulture, though he has been defeated but the injuries he gave to Vulture were more severe than what he has been given.

Staring up at the ceiling, Vulture just replied. “My strength is still not enough! I a still weak.”

“You already fight like a maniac from the time you were healed, you who just entered Hunter Realm was able to defeat me, who has been a Hunter for 7 years…. And you call that weak.

Vulture didn’t reply, after changing his clothes and becoming a normal citizen he left the arena.

Wonder! Why hasn’t he came back… at the speed he was advancing, he should had at least broken through…

“Or something must have happened to him.”

I have also looked over all the academies in the city, there is no one popular there with the same face as him, it’s like he doesn’t even exist in the city, so he probably belonged to a rich family. If his brother said that Monkey’s capital is much higher than Titus, than he who don’t go to an academy even after being registered and no one in the academy also didn’t know who Titus was, so maybe Monkey was someone like that.

Riding the train back to his home, Titus got into his room and fell on the bed with hugging some of his stuff beasts.

Titus and Gerald were unlike other rich kids from their high class society, where others kids who cared for the class, their way of life and how they looked on the outside and also prided themselves of being superior than the common public, Titus and Gerald’s father being a former soldier who fought alongside common men had trained his children to be humble and to never look down on anyone, that’s why Titus and Gerald whenever went out, they kept low key and instead of using their wing jets they rode the common transportation used by the public

Closing his eyes, Titus thought of his fight with Monkey and how he was looked down upon by that man. “How does he actually fight?” He never ever used any feints. He didn’t even used any techniques taught in gyms throughout the city.

Titus being a fighting maniac and a genius at it too had already trained in every single gym and learned their techniques, he even had a personal trainer who was a medium stage hunter realm expert. One of the reason Titus was interested in Monkey was due to his same age and unconventional way of fighting, he didn’t even flinched when his bones were broken or dislocated. This kind of firm will to ignore the pain and coming back consecutive days to fight again and again to fight even knowing that he will be defeated has won Titus’s appraise.

“Brother said that Monkey was a total amateur with lots of money in his pockets… But I beg to differ.”

“He will definitely join the Hunter’s competition and if he’s that rich he will also be sponsored by his family.” If what his brother said was true, than a guy like him will definitely join the competition even if he isn’t one of the seeded competitor from other schools.

And the competition is only 2 weeks far. Raising his hand in the air and closing it to make a fist which generated a small booming sound. My ability hasn’t been properly materialized. But it’s still 2 weeks far.

But the day I meet him again, I will break every single bone in his body. Thought Titus with a creepy smile, he was a crazy fuck.

“Sir this is a rank 2 computer with 10000 processing power, it comes with a level 2 artificial intelligence supporting it.” With his kind Uncle smile on the face, Old Han was selling one of his fixed product to an elderly man.

The old man who definitely didn’t waste any time, just asked for its price. He was a grumpy old man.

“Only 3000 credits for it being a 2nd hand product.”

Selling the computer. Old Han seeing the customer exit sat back behind the shops counter.

“That little ike… he is not human!” Shaking in head Old Han thought. If he had begged that day, I would have let him go.

He probably didn’t lie about not been able to fight before, but the way he fought. Old Han was a professional, though even Gerald couldn’t notice, but from the sharp eyes of Old Han nothing can hide. The day Gerald came to the arena was also the day Old Han followed Sura to arena, Sura saying that a real Vulture was eyeing him was Old Han, and he stood in the spectators while looking at Gerald and The 2 in the arena fighting.

“He is a born killer.” The reason that Old Han trained Sura was to change his fighting style.

That kind of techniques will make him a killer. What Old Han didn’t want was to expose Sura’s true nature to the world, if professionals saw him fighting like that, he will be definitely eyed by some wrong organizations and may be recruited by them.

“Don’t lie to yourself! You know full well.”

“You are the one who killed her…”

In front of Sura stood 3 different transparent figures, their figures were waving in the air with long hair kind things reaching their feet. They all stood in a field of flowers, while moving around Sura who was confined in their middle

“No!”

“Don’t you used to hate your face?”

“Don’t you used to hate women?”

“Don’t you used to hate this world?”

The three figures kept questioning him one after another.

“Stop!”

“Weren’t you the one who promised to set us free?”

“I never said that!”

“hohoho! You will fail again if you follow the old ways.”

“Stop lying to everybody.”

“I never lie!!” The more questions were asked, the more hysterical Sura became. And now his eyes and nose were flowing with water. The more unstable his emotions became, the surrounding became more distorted.

“Never lie?.....you lie to yourself every day.”

Brushing his teeth, while looking at his red eyes. I hate sleeping!
