Before Jansen could say anything else, there was an announcement from the speakers in the room. [ATTENTION FOR ALL PARTICIPANTS IN THE TRAINING CENTER. IN A MATTER OF FIFTEEN MINUTES, YOU ARE TO ASSEMBLE IN THE ROOM NORTH OF THE TEST RINK ROOM] [YOU WILL BE UNDERGOING A SPECIAL TRAINING SCHEDULE TODAY. IF YOU DO NOT GATHER WITH THE OTHER PARTICIPANTS, YOU WILL BE SEVERELY PUNISHED!] [ATTENTION FOR ALL...] Jansen raised both eyebrows as he heard the announcement repeated. Without caring about Joseph and Ryann, Jansen finally walked straight out of the room. "Hey, wait! Don't you want to go to the training ground with us?" asked Ryann with a slight exclamation. As he walked away down the corridor, Jansen briefly looked back. Seeing Ryann who was walking quickly towards Jansen with a curious face, Jansen did not react at all. "Why won't you come with us?" Ryann asked again. Jansen scowled in disgust as Ryann didn't stop trying to get close to him. "Stop trying
Jansen and Richard were both startled after they heard the monster's voice. They both looked warily at the monster who was already walking fast towards them. Suddenly Jansen and Richard ran back faster while holding their breath. Richard spontaneously swung the wood in his hand at the face of the half-human monster man. "Shit! Who exactly attacked me?!" The half-human monster man grumbled. "I smelled a human odor a few seconds ago, but it disappeared again!" On the other side, Jansen and Richard looked at each other. The look on their faces was one of panic. They were not that good at holding their breath for very long. "How? What should we do?" Jansen asked with only silent body and mouth movements. It felt like Jansen couldn't hold his breath any longer. "Run! That's the only thing we can do," replied Richard, who also felt unable to hold his breath. Jansen immediately looked at the half-human monster man. The man was moving in an indeterminate direction like a
"JANSEN!" As Jansen ran deeper into the forest, his adrenaline was pumping. Jansen didn't care about the dark surroundings. When Jansen saw a tunnel, he hurriedly turned into it. He accelerated his pace while occasionally looking at Frank-the man was lagging far behind. Jansen thought about finding a hiding place. He entered the abandoned-looking tunnel, not stopping running until he reached the center of the tunnel. "Gosh. Why is he chasing me so eagerly like that?" muttered Jansen, trying to catch his breath. Jansen's steps moved slowly the further he entered the tunnel. There was no light other than the dim lamp on the abandoned post box. Jansen stopped at the abandoned post box, watching in wonder. "Who would use a post box in a place like this?" Jansen asked, feeling strange. "Do you think you've run far enough, Mr. Jansen?" Jansen stiffened at the sound of that voice. He looked to the side and saw a shadowy silhouette from a few meters away. The dark atmosphere made it
"Actually not suspicious, I've felt attracted to you since I saw you in the fighting ring," Frank said without hesitation. Jansen had expected Frank to suspect him. Especially since he used his real name without a disguise. "I feel very lucky that you noticed me, Mr. Frank. But if you're thinking of someone with evil plans, I'm not like that," Jansen said calmly. Frank let out a long sigh as he put his hands on his waist. "I'm not saying you're someone who plots evil, Jansen. Instead, you remind me of someone who makes me furious with him." Jansen began to find an opening to pry more information out of Frank. He could clearly guess who Frank was referring to. "Do you have someone you hate?" Jansen asked. "Ah, that someone must have made a big mistake." "To be honest, he was a naive person who acted like he could save the world," Frank began to explain. Jansen didn't answer. As he watched Frank walk around him, he tried to restrain himself. He had to control everything he wante
"I can't tell you. I won't be gone for a long time, but I wanted to ask you a favor..." While getting ready to approach Matthew, Jansen briefly looked to his right and left, making sure there was no one who could hear his words. Then his face became very serious as he said something next to Matthew's ear. "...if I arrive late, please distract the Black Warrior or the officers of this organization. Buy some time until I return," said Jansen in a slight whisper. Matthew was confused for a moment at Jansen's words. "What do you mean, where are you going? At least tell me so I can help you," Matthew said. "Just do as I ask, Matthew. It's very important. I'll be back as soon as possible," Jansen replied. Without waiting for Matthew's reply, Jansen left immediately. Jansen's steps were deliberately stealthy but fast-moving. Jansen also deliberately did not show suspicious gestures when walking against the direction of the trainees. He didn't care at all about Matthew who was s
"Really? You mean, the one Mr. Frank brought to the testing room?" "Yes. That trainee really has unusual strength. He can even kill half-human monsters, and has a strong immunity in his body." Jansen pressed his back against the wall, silently listening to the conversation between the two Black Warrior members. Hearing that made Jansen frown. 'Are they talking about me?' Jansen said to himself. The sound of the two Black Warrior members' steps grew closer and closer. Jansen got ready to clench his hands into fists. "System active. Turn on the Punch and Kick attack combo skill," Jansen muttered later. [SYSTEM ACTIVE!] [REQUEST ACCEPTED!] [SYSTEM PROCESSING PUNCH AND KICK ATTACK SKILL COMBO...] [12%] [30%] [43%] "Mr. Frank told us to-" Right when one of the Black Warrior members said that, Jansen then stepped in the way of the two Black Warrior members. Suddenly the two members' steps stopped. "Hello," Jansen said in greeting, giving a brief wave. The two
"Wait, no way. They already said they would train us to eradicate the parasitic monsters. That's what we're all here for," Ryann replied with an innocent expression. Jansen shook his head while letting out a rough breath. "If they're doing what they're supposed to, has there been any progress on parasitic monsters over the past 25 years?" asked Jansen rather sarcastically. Hearing Jansen's words made Ryann and Joseph again unable to say anything. They instantly realized Jansen's words. Although from the looks on their faces, there was a hint of doubt. Before Jansen could say anything else, there was an announcement from the speakers in the room. [ATTENTION FOR ALL PARTICIPANTS IN THE TRAINING CENTER. IN A MATTER OF FIFTEEN MINUTES, YOU ARE TO ASSEMBLE IN THE ROOM NORTH OF THE TEST RINK ROOM] [YOU WILL BE UNDERGOING A SPECIAL TRAINING SCHEDULE TODAY.

Soon, someone got out of the car. In his hand was a rifle. Jansen knew it was Mr. Michael, one of the members of the Parasitic Creature Eradication Organization. Mr. Michael walked over, then stopped a few meters away from the infected woman. He aimed the rifle at the woman, then fired something. In just seconds, after the body froze, the infected woman fell unconscious. She was limp and lying on the ground. "Ah, these trash creatures. They're really interfering with my time," Michael said in exasperation. Michael looked around the crowd. He let out a rough breath. "This is why I hate poor people! You can't buy virus vaccines and just spread the viruses around. What a hassle!" Michael grumbled. Jansen was surprised to hear Michael's words. Why would an organization member say something like that? "Disband yourselves! You'd better protect yourselves from getting infected, or you'll be like this woman!" Michael said sternly. Finally, the crowd began to separate themsel
