Chapter 5 - 5.Whats inside your brain?

Hiro notices that the man doesn't have a hood anymore and sees his short white hair.

Hiro:...'He doesn't look that old but If he really is that old all my life was a lie.'

The man points a finger to the door Infront of them.

Hiro looks at the door curiously.

Hiro:"Is there any food inside .....?"

The white haired man sighs at the younger man's question.

???:"Is your brain there?..."

The man points at the young boy's head with his index finger.

Hiro:"Of cours-...Wait ...My brain?!"

Puts a hand on his forehead in panic and sighs in relief.

Hiro: "It's still there...Oh god,I thought this guy just took my brain..."

The man in the sweater opens the door ignoring Hiro's antics.

Hiro:'..Wait . . . I'm being left behind!'

He follows the man and closes the door behind him.

An old man dressed in a black military like clothes with golden ornaments is standing like a noble at a table while reading a book.

The air of the room had an even higher respect and nobility after Hiro took a look around.

Trophies, documents,masters and many other things that we're put perfectly in place surprised Hiro as both him and the lunatic man are closing in on the reading older man.

The old man breaks his attention from the book and looks at the both of them with anticipation.

??? 2:"Your here my new captain aye?"

The old man smiles at the other man,this smile almost ended Hiro's eyes from how perfect,shiny and kind it was.

???:"Yes, I appreciate the rank up sir ...And oh yeah I got a stupid ass here."

Points at Hiro and the boy looks at him with a pokerface after sighing.

??? 2:"Bahaha- You bringed a civilian in here...?Is he a witness?"

Hiro looks at the old man with curiousity after he finnaly fully observed the room and admired it as much as he can.

Hiro: 'Who the hell is this old man?...How is that grey hair and beard so perfect anyway...'

Looks at the shelf with all the trophies that is in the back of the room with large eyes while scratching the back of his head.

Hiro:'My man has more medals and trophies then I can count in here ..And i have never even won at a game of tic tac toe or chess with those old farts.'

???:"This guy had some fun time with a monster before we got here."

The old man looks at the both of them with a question mark above his head but just brushes it off after some seconds of silence.

??? 2:".Thank you for the inconvenience.Your now dismissed."

The man nods at his superior words and turns his back to both Hiro and the old man.

???:I'm free to go sooo.... Young boy, bye bye!

Hiro tries to grab the man's hood with his hand in exasperation.

Hiro:"W-wait!-"

Before Hiro could do anything else the white haired man closes the door behind him and leaves him alone with the old man.

Hiro looks back at the old man who smiles at him then takes a seat because the man made him a sign with his hand to seat.

???:"Akumu has find something interesting right here. "

Hiro raises a brown at the man's words but brushes it off.

Hiro:"That guy's name is Akumu?"

The old man raises a brown at the question and then puts a hand on his head while looking sternly at the floor.

???:"He didn't say it to you ...? What a tough child..."

Hiro:"...He was silent...atleast from most of the time I've seen of him."

The man rubs his temples but puts his attention back on Hiro.

???:"He just is like that."

Hiro looks at the older man that is still rubbing his temples with a bit of anxiety and fear.

Hiro:"So...Why am I here?..."

The old man stops rubbing his temples and looks back at the younger man with a grin.

???:"I have two questions for you."

The boy raises both his eyebrows in question.

Hiro:"What are they?"

Commander:"Ya want to be a monster hunter?"

The boy raises both his eyebrows in surprise at the question of the older man.

Hiro:Want to be a what?

The old man looks at the boy with a funny poker face.

Commander:"Do I really have to repeat myself?"

Hiro flungs his hands in the air while sweating

trying to deny the man's words.

Hiro:... "N-no sir..!.But what even is a monster hunter anyway??"

Commander looks at him abit before opening his mouth again.

Commander:"You don't know what a monster hunter is?..." "Maybe we we're hiding too much from the normal society... I should've anticipated this kind of question coming from a student ..."

Hiro looks surprised at him.

Hiro:'How does he know I am a student?And what is he talking about..? Society,monster hunters...And me become one? What's going on???'

Commander:"Well let me explain it simply to you.A monster hunter is-"
