While Vincent is doing his best to undo this hardening of his. Champ, Faye and Jamie are in the same group and is training hard for their future. They are assigned to be interns at day and will train at night. And they were selected by the Hero squad The Moon Dancers and under the tutelage of the 5th Division Commander, Angelo/Angela Miles. They were picked by Angela since he saw great potential in them. And since they obviously work as a fantastic team, it is much easier to handle them all together than separately. Angela has no problem on handling them, although he badly wanted to train Vincent. No matter, he still has his friends, and he promised that he’ll take good care of them and groom them into perfect heroes someday. Especially Champ, who has this great potential to become one of the greats someday, but not as great as Vincent, unfortunately. However, he can’t just ignore their abilities. With Champ and his wind powers, he improved on using i
There’s almost nothing in common between Champ and Vincent, and that’s what Champ thinks. Vincent is always the protector of the tenth-class, he is brave, strategic, strong and powerful but also a reckless person. However, Champ just can’t avoid being jealous. Because Vincent was powerless, and despite having no fighting powers at all, Vincent managed to defeat strong opponents who dare to bully those of the tenth-class students. They owe a huge debt to him, and Champ is frustrated because he can’t do anything good once he is in trouble. He hesitates, get scared immediately and then he will absolutely race his way out of that trouble because he can’t do it alone. And that’s what he hates about himself. He is hiding behind the shadows of his friend. However, if you are to pursue heroism, then you must also come prepared to be overshadowed by the stronger ones, and being overshadowed by them is just inevitable. Vincent feels like a
An hour later, police arrived at Champ’s house and went to recover the corpses of his family. His father was immediately brought to a mental health facility to ensure his safety and Champ agreed. His grandfather, who was out at that time since he was at the other city and was picking up the car he bought. But he arrived in his car, but the one who he was about to surprise is now covered in blood and was just a lifeless body now. He cried his eyes out and was kneeling on the ground, begging to give his wife a second chance to live. Champ hugged his grandfather and cried with him,“I’m sorry. It was all my fault-”And then, his grandfather suddenly punched Champ in the face. Champ laid on the road and was rubbing the part where his grandfather punched him,“Don’t you dare say it’s your fault! It’s those damn criminals’ fault, and you better understand that they died not because of you! They died because they be
A week has passed, and Vincent couldn’t even make his blood flow normally again. He kept on doing different techniques to remove the hardening all over his body, but all of it were useless. It was now in the middle of the night, and Abraham is the one guarding him. Well, not really guarding, as Abraham is just sleeping on the floor and snoring loudly. Vincent couldn’t sleep that properly, as he runs out of breath when he does sleep sometimes. So, that’s why he is only allowed to sleep, if Abraham or Michael are in the same room as him. He can’t speak, neither he can eat. He’s been starving now, but since Abraham is supplying with liquid meals, he is pretty much okay, even though he doesn’t know how does that even work. Vincent then began forcing everything, and he eventually p
What does Abraham mean? What real training? Isn’t Vincent doing the real training? What the hell does he mean? These are some of the questions that are revolving inside Vincent’s brain, he couldn’t understand what Abraham meant. And how on earth were they able to go into this place? Isn’t this place in Vincent’s mind? Vincent’s head is gonna blow up any second now, as this is just hard for him to process. The sudden appearance of Abraham and Michael. The meaning of the real training. And this river, which its water is avoiding Vincent. Vincent is just so confused right now, that he just wants to be become a bird. Because no matter how strategic he is, he is still a dumb person with a stupid personality. Because with all of this that is happening now,
Vincent has been painfully training for about 4 straight days now. And his progress is unbelievable, but he is still 50% done. He is running out of time, and Vincent does not think that he will be able to make it, since the routine of the second stage was just painful. It is even more gruesome than the first stage. Because the second stage is forcing his body parts to harden in this plane. It’s seemingly impossible, because every time he tries it, painful feedbacks hit him. And it is not your typical pain. It was like being under the storm, with blades raining down instead of water. And every blade keeps hitting you, repeatedly and nonstop.“W
It’s been a week and a half since the invasion incident happened, and here is Kevin, drinking every day and disappointed because he let Vincent get the best of him. Because in that fight, Vincent practically won. With his unwavering will to save everyone inside the force field, Kevin hated him even more. He hates people like that, the people who are heroic, brave and can sacrifice almost anything just to save and protect others. And those are the people who mainly thinks about others, rather than himself. His hatred towards those kinds of people is limitless. That’s why he wants to annihilate anyone who dares to be heroic near him, and Vincent is his main target. Kevin is currently chugging a bottle of wine when Shaun entered the room, he is in. Kevin put the bottle down and then threw an empty one a
A day has passed and Vincent is still figuring a way out of this place. He can now touch the water without getting avoided by it, and the water is freezing cold and sometimes it is warm. It turns out that the temperature of the water change when a person shifts its emotions. And now that Vincent is all fired up and is very excited to get out and use his newly trained ability, the water is warm. Vincent will get out like the way he got in, actually. It seems to be pretty easy, but when Vincent tried it, it was just another hard thing to do. “I’ll wait for you in the outside, okay? Focus and just concentrate, do what you did when you came here.
With everyone training and being an intern to their respective squad which selected them, Theodore is doing the same thing. He is under the 1st Division of the Dragons as is being trained during the nights by the Vice Captain himself. Because in Theodore’s instincts, it is telling him to train harder, because it is also saying, that his opponent won’t be that easy to go up against. And besides, Vincent is also training hard himself, so it is only natural for Theodore to train as hard as him, because they may be rivals of this generation. The Academy Showdown is going to be a way to show the people who really is the standard bearer for the next generation. And it is also a way to dethrone Theodore from being the world’s strongest and most powerful student. But that will just happen, if Vincen
Plague rose to his feet and then spat out blood as his wound on his chest started to smoke and heal,“That bastard. He covered his hostility so well that I didn’t even feel it until the last second. We have been had! Shit! Know where that bastard is going!” Plague yelled as the atmosphere in the area starts to intensify.Plague then went to his brother’s assistance as his right arm has been cut, and Plague then healed it, but unfortunately, he can’t regenerate it. It is because the attack was different, it has the intensity of a devil and the holiness of an angel. That is something that has never happened before. Both worlds colliding to create a powerful attack like that is not some kind of joke and this is the first time everyone has seen it. Which makes this upcoming battle more exciting. They have all seen a man wielding hundreds of blades before, but he himself holds a single type of blade. But not this guy,“Kendrick Griffin. You have carved your name in my mind. I promise to ki
Kendrick is now awake, and he is now preparing for another night in this vast and dangerous place. As he rose to his feet, the presence of vicious demons around them was the first thing he felt. It was an unpleasant feeling as he just woke up after a long fight last night, and now, it seems that nothing is over yet and nothing is sure as long as they stay in this place.“You guys, what have you—oh my! What the fuck happened?!” Kendrick snapped.He then looked around, as he made another mistake. Erika, Johnny, and Janella are now gone, and he doesn’t know where they went. He then tried to grab on the string that he attached to each and every one of them, but it was no use, the string has been severed, and he is the only attached to it.“Fuck!” Kendrick cursed as he thrashed around the camp in frustration.He blamed himself for what is happening, as if he didn’t sleep, the three might still be here. Kendrick felt lost and confused and frustrated. He sat on the ground just sighing hard a
After the decimation of the demons all over the city, except for the mutants, Kendrick and Johnny just stood there in disbelief. Kendrick and Tsukuyomi were still shaking for some reason,“There is no time to doze off! I’ll handle the mutants, Johnny, please go to Erika!” Kendrick ordered as he then ran towards the charging mutants.Johnny doesn’t want to get ordered by an 18-year-old kid, but since Kendrick has a point and the one who will help him get back to his village, he will let everything slide for now as he then went to run to Erika who is now collapsed on the store’s floor.“Hey! You, okay?!” Johnny rushed towards her and just laid her nicely so she can relax.“Y-Yeah. Just a bit *cough* exhausted. I have never released that much energy before, so, yeah, I am just fine.” Erika replied as she breathes heavily and then coughs.After a few minutes, Kendrick arrived with green goo dripping down his holy sword. He entered the store and immediately told them to get ready to go as
Johnny continued his story, and then eventually told Kendrick and Erika that he needs to go back to his village, but he does not have the ability to do so as he is not strong enough to defend himself from hordes of demons that are much stronger than him, and another is that he is definitely outnumbered. Kendrick, who was listening put the fire out after cooking their dinner as the whole store is being filled with some and it will get hard to breathe if they continue this fire. As they ate, Kendrick asked him,“Why do you want to go back anyway?” Kendrick asked as he sipped on his corn and crab soup.“I have something to recover. Something the village elder told us to get once the village is annihilated, and I think that thing is important if the elder insisted to us like that.” Johnny replied as he then continued to eat.Erika was just wolfing down her food and was never butting in in the conversation as she has got nothing to say in this.“So, I am here to ask for help—”“No!” Kendri

The battle, which was already intense earlier, got much more nerve-racking. The clash between the two was faster than earlier, and it was just incredible and terrifying at the same. Because the fact that a student is doing these kinds of things and having a full form of an angel is not something to see every day. Normally, swordsmen and women would have to take at least decades to perfect their forms. And not everyone can activate this kind of form as it only works for the chosen ones. The swords community is now watching the battle from afar. Since a lot of them have injuries and won’t make it in time to reach the camp, they decided to stay in this position for a while and tend to the wounded. And they are also here to make sure that Kendrick will have reinforcements once he asks for it. As they watch, one of the swordsmen then approached Jason and the commander,“Sir, Ma’am. I got something.” The man says.He then took out his camera that is connected to every public screen througho
Not wanting to hurt his family even though they are fake, has left Kendrick crawling around the church’s floor, begging his family to stop. He has every ability and strength to defeat all of them, especially the demon that are controlling them. However, he is not to use that power against his family. It has been a month and a half since this one-sided fight started, and Kendrick can feel that he would die in this. He can’t handle it. Amaterasu was right, this is the most brutal and gruesome stage of the entire 100 years of training. The pain, the agony and grief cannot be described in this. Kendrick is even wondering that how can they call this a training when it is meant to leave physical and mental trauma to those who undergoes it.“What is the matter, Ken? Don’t you rather join us, than to avenge us?” all of them said at once.Kendrick stood up and faced them,“I do want to join you guys. Because without vengeance, I would serve no purpose. But I refuse to die in the hands of some
5 more years have passed, and Kendrick’s skin is starting to turn gray as the water is starting to become little blades. Kendrick, who can now project a physically able umbrella made from energy. Amaterasu knows that it won’t be long until Kendrick forms a fully and complete one. Kendrick on the other hand is now feeling the pain, the chills and exhaustion. He never knew that he would hold out this long, but he is long before completing this first stage of his training. His beard grew more, and he doesn’t even know how long he has been sitting here and was meditating. As far as he knows, he has been here much longer than he is expecting. However, even though he has fortified his mind and is not letting doubts, hesitations and fears get in him, his body, his human flesh, is weak. His mind is not giving up, but his body is worn out and is wanting to quit this suffering and just die. But his determination and sheer willpower alone is not letting him. Because in his mind, no matter what a
