Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Giant verses Beast!

"Ok everyone let's move in, remember always report any sudden change and also, safety is our number one priority, If you notice something dangerous within the manor report it immediately!, the closest person will quickly rush to your aid" Su Jiang warned everyone cautiously, he then walked towards the manors worn out wooden doors, with the strength within both of his arms he slowly pushed both doors open.

Wooooooo...

A chilling draft blew against their skin as the doors were pushed open, as they looked into the manor, what they saw left them feeling wary, it was natural since all they could see was pitch black darkness encasing everything within, they couldn't make out anything with their eyes, not the furniture, stair case, nor ceiling it self.

_ Well that definitely seems safe_ Yūrei thought sarcastically frowning slightly, while everyones attention were still glued towards the Mansion interior, he nonchalantly brought out his smartphone to keep himself preoccupied, after a short use he casually put it back.

The moment the interior of the mansion was seen, everyone went silent, several different thoughts went through each of their minds as they stood rooted to the spot, though they'd been eager to conquer such a myth before, seeing and believing were two complete different things.

"What's the hold up?, aren't you all going in or Don't Tell me your all suddenly too chicken to go in" Megami suddenly broke the stale mate, her reprimanding words snapped everyone back to reality.

"Could you please just shut up for once in your life!, we were just stunned and wary, who said anything about being afraid!, lest you forget this manor isn't as simple as it seems, shouldn't we all try being a little bit more cautious, unless you're the type of idiot who rushes in without thinking?" Hayami frowned towards Megami, this girl really was dislikable it seemed.

"Did you just call me an idiot?!, Fine then, you all should just worry about yourselves, unlike you I don't need any of your help!" Megami said angrily before walking into the manor, not sparing them a glance, she'd just taken a few steps before she was forced to stop, a firm hand grasped her fair wrist, though the hand didn't apply much pressure or discomfort, no matter how much she tried she couldn't shake it off.

With cold eyes capable of sending chills down ones spine, she stared towards the one who'd halted her gait.

" And pray tell what on earth do you think your doing?!, Unhand me this instant!"

" And let you go in their all by yourself?, am sorry but theirs no way am doing that" Yūrei said calmly, seeing his nonchalant demeanor Megami felt even more annoyed, she screamed towards Yūrei to unhand her but the boy simply turned a deaf ear to her pleas.

"Yūrei just let her be.., since she wants to go in on her own why not let her" Su Jiang who saw Megami's actions felt even more helpless but to his surprise his best friend didn't even lend him an ear, continuing to grasp Megami's wrist without signs of letting go.

"I wish I could Jiang but just this once am going to have to say no, You actually want me to let this rich idiot go in their all on her own, not a chance"

"D-Did you just call me an idiot?!" Megami exclaimed but Yūrei continued to ignore her as if her words were the ramblings of an old fool.

"Su Jiang did you forget that this isn't some average manor or something?!, what if she gets hurt or even worse" Yūrei who was known for his calmness suddenly got even more angered under everyones stunned eyes.

" do you think we could handle the repercussions?!, letting her go in their left to her own devices would only put ourselves in danger!, I don't know if you care or not but I do!, unlike you all I still have my two little siblings to look after who depend on me, am not about to take any risks that could put them both in danger!, so if you all wanna go in, be my guest, I'd rather piss of this unruly spoiled little princess than get my siblings in danger!" Veins slowly becoming more and more visible on his body as he spoke.

_ Shit!, Don't tell me this is happening again?!_ Hayami and Su Jiang thought simultaneously, unlike the others, they knew there Best friend far better than the rest, his newfound change seemed to be something they clearly remembered seeing before.

" Ok i think we've all heard enough of your rambling already, let her go Yūrei, no matter what, you have no right to harass her like that" Micheal suddenly spoke up, with a few steps his hulking frame was now before Yūrei, he cracked his knuckles as if to warn the angered boy not to do anything else but the angered boy who was being looked down on by the tall hulk didn't seem frightened at all, in contrast he was actually more irritated than scared.

While still maintaining a simple grip on Megami, Yūrei turned towards Micheal with gritted teeth " Harassment?, you think this is harassment?....." He asked, his voice sounding icier than Megami.

You have no idea what the word harassment even means...he muttered underneath his breath, his eyes seemingly unfocused as if recalling something from his uneventful past.

" Michael calm down, let's all just talk this over ok" Su Jiang tried mediating but the hulking Micheal seemed hell bent on his decision, staring coldly towards Yūrei, his right arm clenched into a fist.

" And What if I am?, do you think you can stop me if I did?...mister sports star, you may be an athletic genius but don't let that get to your head, I could easily smash that stupid face of yours in and you wouldn't be able to do a single thing about it" Micheal smiled smugly, clearly emphasizing on his huge muscles.

for a highschool graduate his huge physique was something capable of rivaling an adult man's, unlike Yūrei who spent his time training at the gym or practicing, as one of the school's notorious delinquents, Micheals skills were all honed through brawls, after beating up several rival school members and a few adults every once in a while, he was completely confident in has abilities, he felt like he could easily beat this brat before him without even breaking a sweat, so what if he was a sports star, he was still a teenager wasn't he?.

_ How strong could one guy be?, theirs no way he could beat several grown men like I did right? _
