Fiery Rose Inn
A young man was sleeping on a huge bed. Beside him was a huge animal, it has silky white fur and a soft belly. It would change position from time to time.
Yes, this two are Fein and Voli.
Feeling a strange sensation beside him, Fein opened his eyes to take a look. Only to see Voli snuggled to him. It was smiling with saliva currently flowing from its mouth. Seeing this scene, Fein had a black line on his face.
"Voli, didn't I say that you can only sleep on the ground" Fein tugged Voli to wake him up.
Even with consecutive attempts to wake him up. Voli didn't give any reaction and continued to sleep like a dead dog.
Seeing this. Fein sighed and look at the ceiling while pondering. He knew that he needs to prepare now because only two days is remaining before he would venture to Secret Realm.
It was said that the mortality rate there is brutally high. Seventy percent of one hundred thousand participants failed to return during the last attempt. So, only those with sufficient strength are allowed to be invited. But even then everyone still had to be cautious and do anything that can increase the chances of their survival.
Fein was relieved because, with Voli, his chances of returning alive had doubled. The frightening power of Voli's Thunderstorm Domain can even hold back several S-Class powerhouses if used properly.
That's why with Voli's laziness and silly behavior. Fein decided to be patient. He wants to treat Voli as his friend and companion. Because only by doing that would Voli remain 100% loyal to him. Voli is still in the growing stage, just imagining how strong Voli would become in the future makes him excited.
*Sigh*
Fein decided to stop his thoughts there. It's not good to think like this, counting the eggs before they hatch is stupid and commonly raises red flags.
He stood up quietly and goes through the bathroom first.
Voli should probably awake by then. Standing in the mirror seeing his face that was slowly becoming handsome as the day goes by he didn't know if he should be happy.
After all, being handsome had its disadvantages. He doesn't like being the center of the spotlight. He prefers when he was behind the scenes. When you're appearance is average, your enemy would likely underestimate you. A big advantage if you say so. But, he can't do anything about his appearance, wouldn't he?
It would be hypocritical of him, if he says that he hates it. After all, being handsome has disadvantages. The advantages are also apparent. It's displayed in modern society where appearance became more valuable than capabilities. Just like how handsome stars with no talent can beat their competitors who are talented but didn't have a good appearance. He wondered if Kidd's narcissistic side already had affected him.
'It's good that we separated for a while.'
After being narcissistic for a minute. I washed my face and took my toothbrush to the side.
...
-Fein's POV-
After one hour of taking care of my daily needs. Albert knocked on my door. We are now on our way to the famous market or trading place in this kingdom. Voli was reluctant to leave since he didn't want to go out and just want to lay down all day. In terms of laziness, I thought that no one would beat me in my past life. But now...
"So that's the purpose why the gate in the front had a dragon statue," Albert stated jovially while we were walking.
He was telling us the story and origin of this kingdom. Apparently, this kingdom was said to be the den of the mythical dragons in the past.
As we were walking, multiple shadows suddenly appeared in conjunction with several footsteps.
Looking at the front, Albert's face became solemn, and says. "It looks like someone is here to deal with us."
Just like what he said... A man who had a bandana on top of his head appeared. Behind him were dozens of people who had scars on them who were looking at us with greed.
The one beside the person who looks like the boss laughed.
"HAHAHAHA, It seems that it was indeed our lucky day... That beast beside them would sell with a sky-high price to the auction."
While they were busy talking I cast Probe on them. And I was astonished by their status. Because almost all of them are only Rank-E while their boss is only rank C.
I looked at their boss and says. "Where the fuck did your confidence came from?"
I released my aura before he could even speak. The surroundings started to tremble. I focused my aura on the enemies opposite us.
"What is this heavy pressure that is pressing on me?" One of them looked at me with a face as if he was looking at a monster.
The others were also trembling.
"Tsk tsk, just with half of my aura you can't already bear it... Let's see what happens when I fully unleashed it" I stated not hiding the boredom that I feel.
So I deliberately released my momentum. The air suddenly became heavy.
*Thud* *thud*
The sound of bodies falling resounded in the area continuously. All of them became unconscious because of my outburst.
Unexpectedly, one of them didn't pass out. This piqued my interest so I walked slowly towards him.
It was the boss, he was kneeling on the ground. He turned his head towards me. His eyes were trembling in horror. "Y-you, how could a strong person like you appear here!"
After saying this he pointed his fingers at me, and a dazzling light suddenly gathered.
"Hehe, you had to pay the price for messing with me." The guy laughed with his bloodshot eyes. "Die!"
But before he can even launch it towards us, Albert who was just beside me earlier suddenly appeared at the back of the man.
'That must be the ghost-move ability'
Albert's arm sharpened causing some veins to pop out. He hacked his arms toward the neck of the guy precisely.
It happened too fast. But in my eyes, it was like I'm watching a movie 5x slower. I witness how his sharp hand cleaved the man's neck like a knife cutting through butter.
