Chapter 119: Second Volume



Chapter 119: Second Volume

"Kugh" A groan emerged from Rewen's mouth while lying on his face. 

From the past ten minutes, he was treated worse than anything. Kicks and punches were never ending and not a single part of his body had not been not harmed. A few wicked guys and girls even kicked in his jewels. If it were not for the fact that he had something like [Balls of Steel], he could have possibly become an eunuch.

'It isn't funny.' Despite all this, he had kept all of this resentment deep within his heart and had an outwardly calm exterior.

From the distance, Seiji and Ayame looked at the pitiful figure squirming around.

"Quite a funny fellow, isn't he?" Seiji burst out in laughter seeing him. 

Even the calm Ayame's face was unnatural as if she was about to laugh. "Cough, do you know of his identity?"

"I have no idea." Ayame shook her head. Frankly speaking, she might have recognized the person if she saw him previously. 

Even Mari, who had seen Rewen at the entrance of Exquisite Immemorial Palace couldn't recognize his face because of the amount of dirty mud on his face. Not only that, she had known Rewen to be "fatty" but the person she was seeing isn't someone even close to "fatty". His height was short and his face was beyond ugly but he wasn't fat.

"What's the matter, Mari? You are thinking about something?" Ayame found Mari dazedly looking at the pitiable figure. "Do you want to land in a few more kicks? You are allowed to."

'She must be really happy and satisfied now that she is joking.' Mari smiled, then shook her head. "It's just I was thinking of the relative of Reza. That person from whom we stole the invitation from."

Ayame's eyes dropped. "Don't worry about it. When I get back, I will properly compensate for the matter."

"No, no! My meaning isn't that. I just thought that maybe just maybe he looks a bit similar to that person."

"Oh?"

"Interesting." 

Both the siblings had curious glances.

"Why don't you check, Mari?" Ayame suggested. 'It would be very interesting if it turns out that he is the relative of Reza. Though the chance of that happening is very slim.'

Mari nodded, then approached the fallen Rewen. 

Rewen watched her coldly approaching him pretending he was half-unconscious. 'As I expected, none of them know of my true identity.'

Just as she was about to bend down and take a good look at his face, she felt a sharp pain on the back of her knee. Shocked, she looked at the spot where she was feeling pain. 'Blood?' After a single thought, she groaned in pain.

"Aughh." Getting weak on her eyes, she collapsed on the ground.

Rewen calmly got up and dusted off the dirt from his clothes. He appeared completely unharmed from the assault. Even Seiji would be harmed if the assault was done on him!

"..." Ayame, Seiji and the members from both alliances watched the scene in disbelief.

Rewen took a good look at each and every one of them, then crouched down to Mari who was whimpering in pain and patted her shoulder. "Remain strong. You'll get over it."

'[Boost], on my legs.'

*Swish*

He was much faster than before. Of course, the speed was nothing compared to Seiji and Ayame but they were still shocked.

When he reached an edge, he jumped off.

Seiji was the first to recover his calm. "Chase him!"

Everyone, people from both the alliances, chased after the direction Rewen fled.

Just as the first person reached the edge, he turned back to Seiji with a strange face. "Sir, t-this"

"Why the heck are you shut-t-t-er-rin-ring"

Seiji frowned, then went to edge himself. A gasp slipped from his mouth as he looked at the almost hundred-metre long edge.

"Could he survive?" A man from the Miscellaneous Alliance asked.

"I can't." Seiji answered calmly.

Ayame quietly helped Mari up who was still groaning in pain. Her eyes were blazing.

East of Forest of Michaile.

*Clap*

*Clap*

*Clap*

"That relative of yours is really great!" Arata cheerfully laughed while sitting in his base.

Hase couldn't somehow wrap his head around that person. 'Well, he is a Noble from Central so it would be rather odd if he didn't have a few tricks.'

"What do you plan to do?" He asked after some thoughts.

Arata smiled at his question. "What do you plan to do?"

"If he wants to join us, I want to let him join us." Hase straightforwardly said.

Arata smiled and nodded. "Exactly. I was thinking the same."

"Is is it alright?" A member of the alliance asked hesitantly. He wasn't sure if letting a public enemy join their alliance was a good idea or not.

"What? Are you scared? That guy literally schemed against two big alliances by himself and had the courage to not run off. Here, you are just scared to let him in?" Arata provocatively asked.

"Of course not! I was just confirming your decision." The members of the alliance were all prideful in their own way.

"But why did he feel the need to scheme?" Hase asked with a doubtful tone.

"He wasn't trying to scheme. Most likely, he had to scheme to save his ass." Arata personally observed the confrontation between Rewen and the two alliances from far. 'There is more to him than it meets the eye.'

***

Cold water droplets on Rewen's forehead. His eyes twitched a little before opening slowly.

He got up perfectly fine. His shirt was a bit torn but overall, he didn't look like the kind of person who fell from a height of hundred metres.

The first thing he did after getting up was touch his stomach. It was completely flat. His abdominal muscles were soft and looked skinny.

"The fall consumed more fats than the assault." Rewen smiled in satisfaction. This was one of the results he wanted. 

The more he gets hurt, the more will he lose his fats.

As simple as that.

Of course, the Gruer Skill had a time limit. It would last for about fifty minutes after consuming. He only did the thing most needed to do. Sure, he got assaulted but at least it didn't hurt.

There was a small pond nearby.

Rewen first washed his face, then checked if he had any chances. 'Nope. Still the same. I got a little taller.' The reason why he was ugly was because there were too many spots on his face. His nose was enlarged.

As for his height, he was 5'5'' when he first came to this world. Now, he was 5'6''.

Rewen didn't really mind him being ugly. To him, beauty and ugly were two sides of the same coin. Having one thing doesn't make anyone a better person. His thoughts were not in line with the modern society but he wasn't someone who cares a lot about society.

"Now to the next part."

A wide grin appeared on his face. 'Buy the second volume.'

Alter Points: 16

A screen appeared in front of him full of letters. 

"Hm this time, there are more pages than the first volume." With that, he started reading the second volume.
