After buying Av the dual machine guns from the market which was run mainly by the NPCs, Scar along with an ambitious femalerade at his side decided to head back home for the time being.
"So when do we get started with my training? I know I''ve just gotten my weapons now but I don''t want to stay a burden to the both of you any longer. I want to an asset from now on!" Av asked Scar.
"How about you start setting up your ability first then we can focus on entering the dungeon. Remember, the more focused the ability is, the stronger it is, so try to limit the areas at which it can provide versatility. As long as it can only aplish one single task, you''ll have an unbeatable weapon," Scar exined to Av.
"Alright then, I''ll make sure to keep that in mind when I reset my ability," Av replied and waited with anticipation until the two got home.
…
After getting home, Av set her ability just as Scar asked, meaning that it had a lot of drawbacks and could only be used in a few, if not only one scenario. Once that had beenpleted, Scar entered the dungeons with Av as he instructed her in how to do every part of the dungeon.
While this went on, Yuki continued to go ballistic on the dungeon monsters of the 4th and 5th dungeons as he tore them apart.
"I''ve been meaning to ask you One. Are you the one responsible for making me feel angry whenever I''m in dungeons so that I could defeat the monsters since I lose sight of my limits?" Yuki asked.
"So you know about it? I guess there''s no point hiding it from you any longer. What you said is true, I do in fact tamper with your emotions so that you can go above and beyond in dungeons. Specifically now since you have to get this done in such a short amount of time. I can already tell that you''re disappointed since that didn''te from your own power but that''s not true. All the emotions you feel are real and they''re yours. I only make them more prominent so that they can help you in these battles," One replied to Yuki.
"Thank you, it''s fine as long as you yourself aren''t getting involved directly," said Yuki before returning to his animalistic nature while he brutally killed the elves.
…
…
…
After 2 long weeks of nothing but training, Scar and Av exited the first dungeon as Av had finallypleted the first dungeon of the new world.
"You did it! Congrattions Av!" Scar said as he high fived the youngdy after they hadpleted their 2 week quest.
"I couldn''t have done it without you, thank you big brother Scar," Av replied.
"Big brother?… Big brother! I like the sound of that," Scar said proudly as the two headed back towards their house with their tattered clothes.
…
Once the two of them arrived at their house, they entered through the door and began to rest as they could finally breathe with a feeling of relief.
"WAIT! How long has it been since we''ve gone to the dungeon?" Scat asked in a panicked voice.
"I think it''s been 2 weeks, so what ? You seem pretty worried for some reason… oh," said Av as she realized what the 2 weeks meant. It was time for Yuki''s battle with the group that challenged him.
Realizing howte he was, Scar rushed towards the castle-like building in the kingdom as he needed to exin to the group which challenged Yuki that he still needed some more time to recover.
…
"No way! Today is exactly the day in which we agreed on the battle to take ce. He''s still not here and if he doesn''t show, you''ll have no choice but to join us. It doesn''t matter how much we negotiate, it''s been set in stone that you''ll have to help us out once the dayes to an end," one of the members of the group which challenged Yuki to a battle told Scar.
"Okay then, let''s wait until midnight. If he doesn''t show, I''ll join you and I won''t make any excuses nor will Iin," Scar said to them even though he doubted that Yuki would make it back in time.
"Come on now Yuki, for once I want to believe in you. I told you that 2 weeks was much too short for you to gain the strength you needed. Why did you have to be stubborn? Well even if you fail to show up, I guess you can just call on Zero to turn back time and save us from this hell," Scar thought to himself as he sat down at one of the benches in the first floor of the castle while awaiting for the unluckily return of Yuki.
"3 hours left"
"2 hours left"
"1 hour left"
"30 minutes left"
"15 minutes left"
"10 minutes left"
"5 minutes left"
"There are only 5 minutes left, let''s start the introduction ceremony already. We''ve just gained a powerful ally on our side," of them said as they stood up from boredom yet excitement.
…
"I guess it''s over for me," Scar thought to himself.
"Sit back down, you''re not allowed to be on the same level as me," said a voice as the figure pushed the one of the group which suggested that they begin the introduction.
"Yuki! You made it!" Scar yelled out in pure joy and relief.
"I never go back on my word," said Yuki as he smiled while pushing the member of the group down.
"There''s no point, Scar is already hours, there are only 5 minutes left anyway. If you can''t defeat all of us in that amount of time, Scar belongs to us," said one of the members of the group who was wearing the sses. That same member was the one who told the group every detail about Yuki.
"I never agreed to that but sure. I''ll y along with your dumb fight rules," said Yuki before activating his ability.
"Activate ability: Fire Control"
"Heaven''s Bomb"
"It doesn''t matter whatever fancy move you decide to use. We can just run away until the timer is met and since Scar decided to make the fight all of us against you, you''ll never catch us in time," one of the group said as heughed.
…
"It doesn''t matter if you ran, there is already a bomb attached to all of you. The moment you run, they''ll explode and turn you to dust. Even if you choose to attack instead, they''ll explode. If you haven''t realized by now, I haven''t been sick until now, instead I''ve been in dungeons. Right now, you''re facing a level 27 yer with killer intentions," said Yuki as he stared deep into all of their eyes.
"We give up," said the one in sses as he raised his hand up before walking away.
"Hey! We didn''t agree on that! Just give us a second," said another one of the group as he approached the man in sses.
"What was that for?!" the man who excused himself for a moment asked the one in sses.
"He''s not bluffing… if we were to fight him, we would die before we realized it," said the one in sses with a trembling voice.
"Are you serious? Wait, how though? I thought he was just a level 21 yer, what happened to him? Why do you believe that he''s such a threat nowpared to just a few minutes ago?" the one who had excused himself asked the man in sses.
"We should''ve been checking up on him every day instead of just the first then getting arrogant. I believe that this was all set up on purpose back 2 weeks ago. This is what most likely happened. After Scar agreed to the battle conditions, he told Yuki that the battle would take ce 1 week from that day. Hearing that he had to battle us, Yuki devised a n topletely destroy us. As such, he sent Scar back to tell us that Yuki was in worse shape than he thought at first," the man in sses began to exin.
"After he had told us that, 2 things were assured. The first being that we would grow in confidence since Yuki would still probably not recover in time even after 2 weeks which in turn allowed him to. train in secret. For the past 2 weeks, Yuki had been training until he gained 6 whole levels. While a monstrous aplishment on its own, the way he managed to do it is even scarier," the man in sses finished exining.
"So Scar stays with me right?" Yuki asked them just to make sure which made the man in sses around to respond.
"Yes, he will still continue to be a part of your team. Please forgive us for challenging you in the first ce," the man in sses replied before all of them left the guild''s base of operations.
"Wait a second Scar, now that I''m a level 27 yer, does that mean I''m in the top 20 in this guild?" Yuki asked with a sinister grin.
