Chapter 10 - Pristine Modeling Agency

As Aron made his way down the stairs the next morning, Evelyn didn't acknowledge his presence. Evelyn could see the dark bags underneath his eyes, showing he hadn't gotten any sleep. Feeling sorry for Aron, she didn't pester him and decided to ignore Aron for the rest of the week.

Aron was really grateful to Evelyn for not bothering him, because as of now he was feeling really depressed. He had realized all his abilities were useless. The only benefit he had gotten from the Fruit of Evolution was his looks. As he remembered about his looks, he got an idea. After a long time of thinking, Aron had decided.

He would become a model.

Aron quickly gobbled up the pancakes Evelyn had made for him and took out his phone. Then, he searched for the nearest modeling agency to his house. He quickly wrote down the name and address of the modeling agency, Pristine Modeling Agency, and headed towards it.

As he was heading towards Pristine Modeling Agency, Aron saw many people staring at him once again. Embarrassed, Aron pulled up his hoodie over his head and started jogging.

However, soon, in the hurry of losing track of the people who were gazing and following him, Aron got lost.

Aron found himself in a dark alley full of dumpsters and garbage. As he went farther in the alley hoping to find someone to give directions, Aron was shocked at the sight he saw.

In front of him stood a group of five men surrounding one girl sneering and licking their lips. As he looked closer he could see the girl was extremely beautiful. Silver hair flowed down her shoulders, and her eyes looked like sapphire.

In front of the danger before her, the girl attempted to seem calm and brave, however, Aron could see her trembling from fright.

Aron couldn't handle looking anymore.

"Stop!"

The gangsters looked back and were visibly shocked, as they saw a black hooded man suddenly appearing before him. However, the leader quickly recovered and frowned.

"Why? Want to play the hero?"

"Why not? I'm an Awakener?" Aron said proudly, hoping to scare away the gangsters. He himself wasn't sure if he could fight against five grown men.

"Oh really? So am I!"

The leader grinned and suddenly a fire lit up from the leaders arms, emitting huge amounts of heat. Then, the fire traced up the leader's arms and covered his whole body. Soon, the whole alley way was lit up with eerie glows.
