On the other side of the city, inside the Mad Dog nightclub, Vitor was dying of hatred for Arthur. He had never suffered so much humiliation in his life, and by a person he never saw. In addition to being beaten at the restaurant, he was brought to his own territory, beaten again and has even extorted.
"I swear I will kill that idiot as soon as I get the chance !!" Shaking with hatred, Vitor recorded these words deep in his heart.
After that, he started to jump with his chair, and gradually he approached the table. When he got there, he picked up the phone with his mouth and dialed a number with his chin and waited for the other side to answer.
"Hi, boss! What was the problem? Did you get in trouble again?" The other party spoke with a little irony, but still showing a little respect.
Vitor ignored the joke and spoke with deep anger: "I want you to come here to my office. Bring the key. Take the opportunity and call the Sinner. We are going to eliminate a certain insect today !!" With that, Victor hung up.
Inside his head, innumerable plans began to form, all aimed at the destruction of Arthur.

05:00am
Meanwhile, Arthur was sleeping comfortably on his bed of thick, fluffy sheets. There was no dream or anything. Just a complete rest of the body.
While enjoying that comfort, Arthur, in his head, began to hear some beeps. Thinking it might just be a fly or something, he just waved his hand near his head and went back to sleep.
Soon after, another beep sounded, but louder than the previous one. This time Arthur thought it was some truck backing up the street below and ignored it.
Even so, the beeps continued to play, one louder and more frequent than the last. With such a situation occurring, Arthur got up full of fury and drowsiness, looking for what the hell had woken him out of his sleep. Only after a while did he realize it was coming from inside his head.
The beeps were getting louder and more annoying. At that moment, all of Arthur's sleep was washed away and only the fury was left. He got up from the bed and ran to the bathroom. The dirty water from his bath was still there, since he was too tired to put it out. Taking courage, he stuck his head inside and hopefully waited for the sounds to stop.
But contrary to his expectations, it didn't stop and it even got worse. Not taking it anymore, Arthur pulled his head out of the water and was going to scream to muffle the noise in his head, but a system warning stopped him.

Feeling that this was very strange, Arthur selected 'Yes' and the panel opened.

'How is it? Training?' Arthur was slightly in shock. But that soon passed, since he planned to do something like that, he just didn't expect the system itself to prepare something so good for him.
He then got up, took a shower in the nearby shower, and put on an exercise outfit that he bought for convenience. He really didn't expect it to be useful anytime soon.
Before leaving, he checked that Thomas had not woken up after all the noise. This guy had a very heavy sleep and only woke up when he wanted to. Seeing that he hadn't even moved since yesterday, Arthur then went to the park to do the exercises.

Arriving at the Park, Arthur saw that very few people were there. Ignoring all of them, Arthur again checked the quest.

Looking carefully, Arthur did not understand why such a basic list of exercises, especially now that his body was almost 4 times stronger than an adult, would be considered an 'Infernal' difficulty.
Letting go of that thought, Arthur then stretched a little before going to make the first one on the list: Run 10 kilometers.
But before he could take the first step, a hand grabbed his shoulder and a laugh came from behind him. As soon as he looked back he was a little shocked: it was Silva, the old man who separated the fight in Réunion and also who sold the sandwiches to him in the New Year.
"Hello, young man. It looks like someone wants to change in the new year, doesn't it? But I never saw anyone start on the second day, hahaha." A charismatic smile appeared on his face.
"Haha, hello, Mr. Silva. It's really a surprise to see you here. I'm really trying to change my life this year." Arthur returned with another kind smile. He used the Vision of Soul in Silva and saw nothing but a man who tries to justify himself for his past sins, and is always kind to everyone.
"It is even more of a surprise to see you here. But it is the only public square in the city and with things to do exercises. Come on! As it is new year I will not do a heavy training, so I will accompany you today."
"I appreciate the help, but wouldn't it be a nuisance for you?" Arthur spoke with a silly smile. He was concerned that Silva would not accompany him in the exercises, as he was much stronger than he appeared.
"Don't worry, be cool. I can help you if you make a mistake or something! Let's start!"
"Okay, then. Let's start!"
