"Thousand Sea step"
~Whish~
He phased through the air and appeared in distant front of thirteen meters.
'It looks like my feet are drifting through the ground with no friction but is happening too fast for anyone including me to see.' Ayo folded his arms as he looked back at the distance he had just phased through. He was wearing a black tracksuit and a white round-necked shirt inside, with a pair of flip-flops.
"I didn't know there was a guy like that in this neighborhood?" Rotimi said, light-skinned but and pitch black eyes, Rotimi was the pimp of the neighborhood, and of course, seeing a man who was more handsome than him pissed him off. Luckily for Ayo, he didn't see him use the thousand sea step, before Rotimi and his three goons began walking into Ayo's range.
[Hostility detected]
'I know, I felt it too... weirdly, it was I could feel them breathing down my neck.
[It is an effect of the passive skill: Breathe of life]
"Cool," Ayo muttered.
"What is cool?" Rotimi asked pocketing his hand as he reached Ayo.
Ayo looked left and right, "I wasn't talking to you...?" Ayo tilted his head left and right, glaring at him.
[Quest Generated]
> Defeat, the young boy Rotimi and his crew.
> Quest reward: +1(active) skill card.
> Quest failure: 45 minutes on the second floor of the abyss.
'Why does it feels like you are always taking advantage of every situation to send me to the abyss? At least my former system was direct about it.'
[The former system does not have the authority I have]
[What I'm doing is making this a win-win for you, regardless of whether you fail or complete the quest]
'By sending me to the abyss?'
[You'll get used to it]
"Will you look at this guy spacing out in front of me!" Rotimi exclaimed and grabbed him by the collar, drawing him closer to his face and lunging a punch to his face.
~Pow!!~
"Ouuwwhh!" Rotimi's crew joked as the punch landed a clean hit on Ayo's face, causing him to stagger backward. He rested on his knee.
"Damn, since coming to this world and that stupid system deleted all my skills, I have been doing is receiving hits over and over again," Ayo muttered as he lifted his face and looked at Rotimi who was frowning.
"So in this world, called Earth. People just walk up to each other and punch them or try to kill them?" Ayo asked, wiping his blood away from his lips.
Rotimi was flustered for almost a second as he responded, "I asked you a question! Don't you know my father is the community leader of this area?" Rotimi replied with a shaky voice but frowned even harder as he realized he was shaking.
"So that was why you walked up to a stranger and punched him?" Ayo inquired of them again, this time taking a keen observation of all of them with his eyes not wavering. His gaze was sharp and complemented by his golden eyeballs, he had a seriously intimidating stare.
"Y-Y-You probably don't know what a community leader is. Rotimi's dad is a first-rate martial artist that calls the shot around here. You foreigner, go back to your country." A short boy, with braided hair, expressed, pointing his hand to him.
Ayo combed his hand through his hair and blew out hair in irritation at what the boy just said.
"I've decided, I'm going to give you a taste of your own medicine." He said, cracking his knuckles even though they were barely cracking, and slowly stepped forward.
[Activating Aura Body]
The subtle pressure he exuded gave them a scare, and their legs shivered.
'Fuck! Fuck!! Why am I scared... I know some martial arts too.' Rotimi gritted his teeth in frustration and...
~whoosh~
Faster than Ayo was anticipating, Rotimi seeped closer to him, the surprise of the young boy's next move left his eyes wide open as he flung forward a powerful kick without a form of balance or preconceived legwork. It was razz and uncoordinated but before Ayo's eyes, it was a beautiful adaptation.
His jaw was flung up by the kick and he staggered till he fell on his back.
He touched his chin as he rose, 'No bruises...was his kick not packed because he didn't have enough time to gather momentum and just rushed in? or was it because of Aura Body?'

Ayo's mouth dropped.
"I'll admit you are strong... being able to stand up after my powerful technique makes you worthy. You must be a martial artist too. Show me your techniques." Rotimi taunted and he got in form, pushing his right leg forward and stepping to the side.
"Yes! Yes! Show him Rotimi!" His crews cheered from behind.
Ayo slowly stepped forward with a smug face and a devilish grin, he combed his hand through his hair to flip his bangs and reveal his face.
"I am no martial artist or whatever you call it but that technique you used just now. Let me show you how to do it better."
"Huh? Are you a fool? There's no way you can use the twin dragon kick. It belongs only to my family." Rotimi contended.
~whoosh~
~WHAM!!~
Ayo's foot dived towards his eyes and released an explosion of wind on his face that aggressively blew his clothes and caused him to pee his pants in that split second. As Ayo dropped his foot, his leg lost strength and sank him to his butt, still, he shamefully picked himself up and ran away, not caring that his crews were ahead of him.

"Yes!" Ayo replied vibrantly.
