Chapter 37 - Chapter 37: Frenemies

A few days had past and the news of an undefeated champion was spreading round, this person had gone on for a week now undefeated, so far soldiers don't usually fight or spar with the civilians unless they where very strong but a few soldiers had gone up against Danny, those with super speed and they where his toughest opponents but still he came out victorious with his new skill he felt so now he felt he was ready, ready to face Adam.

Niki and the others where training when they where approached by someone

hey Danny I was wondering where you always went, where have you been Adam said

and what's with those bandages Romeo said too but Danny didn't reply, instead he walked up and stopped in front of Adam

I challenge you to a match

huh? everyone was surprised

alright, I'm so lucky, everybody wants to spar with me Adam said enthusiastically but what he failed to realize like the others was the seriousness in Danny's eyes

if you want we can spar today

I'm not asking for a sparring match I'm asking for a real one

wait what? only now did Adam realize what he ment

Danny what's wrong Romeo said but Danny put his hand out ushering him to stop

Danny I can't actually fight you for real, your my friend so I can't fight you with the intent to hurt you Adam said

I'll be waiting at the gymnasium, when your ready meet me there or I'll come to you he said and left them all stunned

Adam did something happen between you two Niki asked

no not at all, I'm just as surprised as you are Adam said

so what are you gonna do, he seems serious Lita asked

I'm not really sure

ehh it doesn't matter, we can talk to him about it later, besides if it's a match he wants then give it to him, your stats are higher than his so he can't hurt you and if you don't want to fight then you don't need to, just ware him out then we ask him again what all this is about

yh I think your right Adam said, little did they know Romeo was actually planning on Adam beating Danny

Over the period of time they had spent here in law city Romeo hadn't done anything significant, always staying silent and acting like he didn't care about anything or have much interest but he had been paying close attention to everything and more especially his friends, he couldn't recognize Danny anymore, the once perverted kid he knew who always wanted his friends to tag along and have fun together was gone, now all he saw was a self centered kid who wanted attention and recognition from others even from those he despised. He noticed the change of attitude back when it all began, having flash backs of his memories with Danny he began

to notice a pattern that wasn't there before

****

when they where kids watching anime, Danny would always say

you see how strong the protagonist is, I'm the protagonist and you guys will be my friends just like his

but Danny, his friends are all idiots and aren't powerful at all Adam said

plus he has a haram

exactly, but don't worry I'll protect you guys and you'll find your own Haram just not as big as mine

no fare they both complained

Or the time when they would be in school

I hate school, why can't they leave us alone Adam complained

yh and every single time the other would see us and do nothing, even the teachers, what's with this school Romeo said

but as for Danny

damn it, I hate this, Trixie saw me in such a weak and beat up state, why can't I get a system or get powers like the protagonists in the anime's, when will my story arc start

Or even when the arrived in law city

he was friendly with everyone who ignored them or even beat them up before

****

Now that I think about it, Danny has always been like this, I just never really noticed Romeo thought, he always wanted to be acknowledged and praised by others, he never learned the moral compass or character of the anime or manga protagonists the watched and read but the again he mostly read the Haram genre but still, all he saw was power, popularity and women.

After they're work out Romeo and the gang followed Adam to the gymnasium to talk to Danny and sure enough he was there waiting for them

so have you accepted Danny asked

Danny can we just talk about this first Adam said but Danny ignored him and went into the ring, it seemed he had set everything up already and even the spectators where ready, already expecting an epic match

he seemed to have planned this all out before hand Nikita said

I won't fight him, I'll still try to talk this through Adam said as he got into the ring

Danny pls let's talk about this he said

we are talking, we are talking with our fists!

Danny dashed towards him and throw a fist but Adam dodged it

wow he fast

Danny kept throwing punches but Adam kept dodging

Danny did I do something to upset you? can't we just talk like friends? but Danny wasn't responding. He was complete focused on landing a punch on Adam but he simply wasn't fast enough, even with he's winning streak, new stats and level ups he still was good enough to even land a hit on Adam

fight me he yelled, only then did Adam catch his fist

I won't fight my friend, common let's talk about...

while talking Danny grabbed his arm and the collar of his shirt and slammed him into the ring floor with such force a bang was heard, he didn't stop there as while holding onto Adam's arm he threw multiple punches which Adam blocked with his other arm

his punches are really heavy, has he been leveling up and getting stronger?

Danny kept punching but suddenly switched as he punched Adams chest with such force the whole building shook, the ground cracked and blood spilled out from Adams mouth

damn this new skill is amazing Danny thought. There was another driving force for Danny as even with all his training and current stats the system still have him a quest, the system only mission when facing an equal or difficult opponent, it never gave any special rewards for fighting a weaker opponent so for Danny to get a mission ment Adam was still stronger

You've challenged a sleeping lion

mission: defeat the gentle while cat

reward: 100Exp, 100stat points

even with all the effort I've put in these past few days the system still thinks Adam is stronger? to even call him a sleeping lion. Damn it don't mock me he yelled in his head. He continued to punch Adam on the face, with Adam sustaining some serious internal injuries his defense was weakened allowing Danny to deliver direct hits to the face

damn it he's actually serious about fighting Adam thought

Adam fight back Romeo yelled

Adam caught Romeo's fist again and pulled himself up and have him a drop kick to the chest sending him flying out the ring giving him time for his passive skill to take effect, Danny immediately got up and ran, jumping into the air the tried giving a superman punch but Adam stepped out of the way

Danny what's gotten into you Adam asked again

you wanna know what's wrong, I'm the protagonist not you he yelled as he continued his attacks. Adam kept dodging and Danny kept attacking, his emotions reaching a boiling point. I'm the one ment to be the protagonist so why did the universe choose you

Danny what are you talking about, have you been watching too many anime again?

you chose the worst abilities among them but someone ends up being the one with the vest system, you where still a loser when this all start but suddenly you become this handsome hunk with Romeo and the others by your side and worse, befriending Lita and becoming popular, what's next, make your own harem?

Danny stop this let's talk Adam said as he grabbed Danny's arms again stopping him from throwing any more punches

Everything you have, I had to work for it he yelled as he pulled Adam close and flipped him landing on his back with Danny on top of him, he pinned his arms together and started punching Adams face directly

your teacher should have been mine he said as he punched him

Romeo should be with me, I should have been friends with Lita, all of this, the attention, power and op system should have all been mine he yelled as he kept punching

having enough of getting his face bashed Adam freed his hands from Danny's grip and pushed him off, his face healing from the slight bruises forming

I don't know what this is all about but I'm sorry but Danny wasn't having any of it as he kept attacking this time even throwing a kick to the head

now I understand why your family hated you

what?

boom a right hook caught Adam right in the jaw powered by kinetic energy dislocating but it healed quickly

what do you mean my family

your family members are here, and they said they never want to see you again because they don't want you stealing what belongs to them and now I know why

Danny throw another super powered punch and it landed ring in Adams face taking all of it but he did flinch neither did his head move backwards, he just stood there and took the hit head on. Danny was shocked

he took it without any reaction?

Adam slowly grabbed his arm, that's taking things too far he said as now he was serious, Danny tried another punch but Adam caught it again and held them together with his strong grip

we'll talk about all of this when you wake up he said as he readied a powerful punch and with out holding back punched Danny so hard he flew throw the walls and out of the gymnasium crashing unto the streets and passing out
