“Excuse me, can I sit here?” The woman smiled when she asked the man who saved her using a sweet and polite tone. The man seemed familiar and she had the feeling that it was the same man who rescued her last night when she was almost kidnapped.
“No can do,” Kane blurted without even looking at her. “You already have a spot so please just stay there and let us eat peacefully.”
Clay almost choked when he heard Kane’s reply. Just what the heck was wrong with that man? He saved her but now he was being totally rude toward her!
He looked at the woman expecting her to have a hurt or offended expression but the woman just smiled and sat on the seat beside Kane. Did she not hear what he said or did she just choose to ignore him?
“Thank you.”
Kane did not even try to hide it when he rolled his eyes. He continued eating while ignoring the woman while the woman ate while glancing at him from time to time.<

Languid Kane Chapter 56: A Day to Slack Off
Kane woke up early and went for a jog. Fortunately, there were parks near him where he could go jogging even when he was in the countryside. He thought that living in the countryside would mean that he would live somewhere near the sea or near the farms. He was actually relieved that the place where Mr. Romero sent him was a civilized one.He took his phone and plugged his earphone before he started jogging. The first reason was to keep him from being bored and the second reason was to block the noise around him. He savored the wind blowing past him as he ran.That was the peace that he had been looking for. Though he could not remember, Kane seemed to be yearning for that kind of serenity. Even just for a day, he planned to set aside everything and just let himself do the things he wanted to do. He was sure that after that day, he would be busy training his ability and suppressing the monster within him.As the sun started rising, Kane tried to make his senses
Languid Kane Chapter 57: Hunter's Guild
After that talk, Kane messaged Mr. Romero and asked if he had details on people who were awakened with polymorphic abilities. He received the message the next morning so he asked Clay to give him a bit of time before they go to the hunter’s guild.He scanned the information that Mr. Romero sent him and grinned. He was not sure about the extent of his abilities and he wanted to try the process that was started in the documents. If he succeeded, then he might provide the researchers with additional information about his S-Class ability.He read the instructions once more before he went to his room and locked himself inside. He recalled what he just read and started thinking about the parts of his face that he wanted to change. First, the color of his hair. Then, his eye shape and color. Lastly, his complexion. He wanted his white skin to be a little tanner since it did not suit the place.He took a deep breath as he visualized his mana channels within
Languid Kane Chapter 58: Hunter's Evaluation
Kane patiently waited in line while quietly observing around. He noticed that most of the people having their evaluation seemed to be young. He thought that maybe the region valued the experience so many youths would go to the hunter’s guild to gain experience in hunting in the lower-ranked dungeons.“You seemed younger than me. High school students are not allowed to enter dungeons, even here.” The man who stood in front of him, who seemed to be in his early thirties, asked Kane.“But I’m no longer a high school student,” Kane muttered as he tried to ignore the man who seemed to be looking down on him. He was tall for his age so why did that person mistake him for a high school student?“Did you stop studying? The young ones should really stop acting recklessly. How could you people abandon your education and jump off to dungeons that could not even guarantee your safety?” The man shook his head in disappointment.
Languid Kane Chapter 59: Hunter Training
While Kane was waiting, he noticed that Clay had been typing on his phone with a serious expression. He looked at the man and patted his shoulder.“If you have work to do, you can go now. I will wait here for my ID then I’ll try to familiarize myself with the place.”“Are you sure you’ll be fine? I’ll come to pick you up later after I finish what I have to do,” Clay insisted but Kane shook his head.“There’s no need for that. I can go home on my own.” Kane smirked. “I just need to take the bus and get off on Maple St. After that, I can walk my way to the apartment.”“It seemed like you’ll be fine even without me.” Clay gave in. “But if you need me don’t hesitate to call me, okay?”“Sure thing.”Clay walked out of the building and Kane just covered his head with his hood. He did not want the attention that was on him so it w
Languid Kane Chapter 60: Secret Place
Clay went to his apartment the next day and dragged him out. He informed him about the rookie training but the latter just became more eager when he heard about it.“Why do I need to come out of my apartment when I need to prepare for the rookie training?” Kane asked as he unwillingly followed Clay and entered his car.“It’s because you need to know about this before you leave for the rookie training. You still need to train to get used to your ability right?” Clay started the engine of the car and they took off.He started explaining to Kane about the place where they were going. “It was a place that your uncle prepared for the hunters contracted by the branch of AC here in the southwest region. Since there was no one using the place, that would be your secret training place. If you want to be prepared for the training, you should at least train your ability, right?”Kane kept his silence. Though he did not want
Languid Kane Chapter 61: Something Missing
“Now try to control your speed by moving fast then slow,” Clay ordered Kane and the latter tried to do just what the man asked him to do.Kane used varying speeds as he walked closer to Clay. It was hard at first but because he had been practicing for two hours to use his mana to speed up and slow down, he was slowly getting the hang of it. He used full speed and then came to a full stop which almost made him tumble down. He let out a sigh of relief as soon as he got back his balance.“You did it!” Clay laughed as he patted Kane’s back. “Now you’ll survive the dungeon no matter what happens.”“What are you talking about?” Kane glared at him. “The rookie dungeon was supposed to be easy and I am an S-Class.”“Don’t let that Class get into your head, Kane. No matter how strong you are and no matter how harmless a dungeon could be, we can never tell what might happen. We just
Languid Kane Chapter 62: Rookie Training
Monday came and Kane was picked up by Clay that morning. Kane slept in the car since he had been exhausted from training in the secret place the day before. He had to be alert and ready inside the dungeon so he needed all the rest that he could take.“We’re here.” Clay slightly shook Kane’s shoulder to wake him up. He opened the car door and walked out of the car to help Kane bring out his things. “This is the inn that you asked for a reservation.”Kane nodded his head as he looked at the building. “Thanks.”Clay patter Kane’s shoulder and smiled at the young man. “You’re going to do well today and for the next 6 days. Call me as soon as you finished with the rookie training.”Kane nodded his head and bid Clay goodbye before he entered the inn. He showed his hunter ID to the receptionist and the young lady smiled as she confirmed.“You can go to room 201.”Ka
Languid Kane Chapter 63: Rookie Training II
Kane went home dejected. Though he had a learning experience, he regretted that he made the wrong choice at such a crucial moment. Cyrus was right. If that was not for training, he would have died. Not just him, he would have dragged the others to their death as well. He should not be complacent that his skill training was going well. The dungeons were a lot more dangerous than he thought. He went directly to the bathroom to wash since his body was sticky from the sweat and the dust that came from the dungeon. Under the shower, he visualized the things he did and thought of the actions that he should have taken. Instead of splitting the hatchling into two, he should have shattered it to pieces. However, he was not sure if he was strong enough to do something to that extent. Once again, he gathered his mana and spread it throughout his body. He could feel his mana circulating but he really felt as if something was missing. He felt like a chick struggling to brea
