Chapter 38

If ever you were given a chance to gain something so valuables but in exchange there was some sort of higher risk than the chance to succeed, would you dare bid and try your luck even if you know what might lies up ahead of you?

In life, there are times that we need to gamble. But… still, gambling also need the use of mind and agility

Why agility?

Of course, if things gets shady… it is sometimes better to run free.

“Ethan… that as your name right?”

This man that I was picking a fight on was seem to be mad of what I have done. I am not sure why he isn't so mad in the fullest but… is it something I shall be worried of?

Maybe… I should focus more on how I would escape.

The dark shade in his eyes are starting to get scarier than whatnot was just a while ago. I was thinking that maybe…

I shall now count the timing of me getting out of this place.

To think that I would be given a great quest of angering this man… hah, I wonder what as the system is thinking right at this moment…

“It seems like…” I started to hear a sound of bones making a clutches as he started to stretch his arms and muscles. “… you wanted to play so badly… am I wrong?”

I was sure to buy the item I needed in order to not be killed for the second time.

I have no idea how many times will I get that kind of chance. Who knows it was just some sort of big that appear. Or maybe a blessing of the God in this world that makes me keep on breathing.

Who knows…

“No, you seems to be so high in your capabilities. May you do the honor of fighting me to show your true power? Ethan… Shujinko?”

That smug look on his face… it was… terrifying at some point but… I can see the status bar of his anger starting to get higher and higher. It now reaches the total of 70%

That was fairly enough. Just a bit more push and—

I know that he would act as soon as possible but I didn't expect him to be this agile. Hah, did I somehow make a misjudgment about his power?

If not for me making a move avoiding his arm, maybe he probably hit me hard enough to make me pass out.

That impact he gave…

He was this strong yet… why didn't he help clear those monsters when Fiolle was having a hard time in that? I can't seem to get what he was thinking

Jumping like a frog, well maybe that doesn't sound a bit good to describe it but it was the same thing is as doing. Hoping and jumping backwards as he makes a landing in the air of every bit of his punches, I successfully avoid his attacks.

I am grateful if I may say. Maybe my reflexes started to upgrade due to the level up of my status. What can you expect if I used almost all of my harto honing my talents and abilities

“Why do you act like a coward frog jumping and not making a move to fight back? Are you scared that much?”

“Are you taking to me to not let me be reminded that you are no good at all since you can't even land a single blow at me?”

With a smug look on my face, I wonder if it was really alright for me to say such word. It is as if I was digging my own grave… but… this is the only thing I can do in order to get the reward. After all…

Unlike the daily quest, this hidden quest are hard to come by and is not that long to hold on your bar. As soon as some certain period of time passes by, it is a bid to say farewell to it without even getting any collateral damage fee as the time you've spent to fulfill that task.

Although unlike some quest, this doesn't have any punishment or whatsoever at sort.

“You bastard…”

I look carefully on where I would be going, now that I finally meet the blind spot, I guess it is now time for me to—

Ah shit!

“Lenro.. You silly guy”

“What, I was just speaking the truth—”

Why are they here? Aren't they supposed to be on the clinic room where I first had my consciousness back? Why are they here in the corridor and of all sides and time, why specifically here??!

“Wait, someone seems to be coming…”

I heard Lenro mumbled to Eliza as he started to be on guard.

Shit, there is no time to get out, they are blocking the way, I must…

“Get out of here! You two!!“

I shouted as I tried to fasten my pace but to my luck Jinre also did the same thing.

He catch up on me so easily that I was worried on how my plan would fail.

”Hu— what the—“

I was surprised on how Lenro act so fast avoiding Jinre who was making a rampage with that power of his.

To tell the truth, he do looks like a bull at some point. I was worried on how he was being that strong and yet…

There was no structures of this building that was damaged. It was…it was as of he have the great time in controlling his power

I was certain at that point… I was certain on his capabilities of having that kind of power.

But still…

”89%”

Now I wonder what kind of anger would he have of he reaches the hundred percent of the anger status bar

With the use of the cloak that I bought for a hefty price, my harto was depleted into none

I have no other money— I mean harto left for me. It was drain. I was poor… poor as ever…

“What would you do now? Jinre? Isn't it nice to be mad at me at a certain point? Go… be mad”

I smirk

After all, he wouldn't have the chance to see where I was if I have this cloak I was wearing

“Ethan, you really did a good job at making me mad, I would say that you do give such a nice gift for me…”

I can't see where he was since he was seem to be hiding somewhere. The spot I choose isn't in place that can see where he was. That means, this spot was hidden in his sight. That was good

“hiding now… are we? Get out or else”

Or else what?

“You wouldn't like it if I force you to get out by your own… would you?”
