The man showed a massive grin revealing his abnoxious, yellow teeth. A smug and scornful light passed his eyes, "I suggest you leave before I turn that pretty face of yours into a beggars."
The Underdog Gang?
The moment I heard the word 'gang', I immediately thought of what Gianna said.
It seems it was true.
Then that would make that middle-aged man and woman there her parents.
I glanced at them, the old woman was bawling her eyes out, there was also a fresh red bruise on her cheeks as if she had just been slapped. The man on the other hand looked like he was about to burst into a fury.
"Where is Ms. Gianna?" I asked, ignoring the warnings of the yellow-teethed dude.
The other two person with the yellowed-teeth had also noticed my presence, they looked at me with scorn and ridicule in their eyes.
"Haah~!? Who are you supposed to be?" One of the more muscular and had the most nastiest face came closer to me.
I glared at him with aloof eyes, it seemed to have pissed him off as he picked up a chair on the ground with one hand and threw it to my head.
At least he tried too...
I effortlessly dodged to the side, letting the chair hit nothing but the wall behind me. I moved my body and appeared infront of him with a flash using only my agility with no mana involved, I threw a punch at his guts without holding back.
The dude was thrown far back and hit some furniture on the ground. His two other friends were shook and was jaw-dropped.
Gianna's parents wwere also baffled.
But most of all, it was me that was baffled. My hand, even though I threw the punch very hard, I met some resistance.
It wasn't armor or anything, but pure muscle that my fist came into contact.
I saw the dude I punched stood up, grasping his abdomen with a pissed and pained expression.
He looked at my shocked face and became angrier, "What's with that face?! Did you think you could have knocked me down in one punch, bastard!!" He cursed and spat on the ground.
What the-
The dude could still speak!
That punch of mine should have sent him unconscious and more than a few ribs broken and yet he seemed relatively fine?
Remind you, I have eaten the lesser nirvana fruit that renew my whole physical body and enhanced my bodies physical qualities, I should have more than enough physical power to destroy a normal humans internal structure, yet how??
How was that possible that he could still stand?
It was like when I faced those bandits in the road from when I encountered Fuego and his dad against the bandits assault, they too had some impressuve physical qualities but not as much as the person infront of me right now.
Was this person even human?
I was sure he was no mage, I could not sense a hint of mana from him at all!
But now that I sensed a bit further, probably thanks to the Dew of Tranquility that enhanced my sixth sense to a far more sensitive degree than most of the other mages my level, I could vaguely sense an unknown, different energy from the man's body, located somewhere near his chest?
I shook my head, I wanted to question the man but I knew he would not answer. I could only beat it into him.
I had to take care of these delinquents, it seemed that I was already involved in the problem the moment I asked about the whereabouts of Gianna.
It also seemed that the man was more pissed than ever and didn't seem all that willing to let me go scoth-free.
Getting entangled in this mess was probably something I'm gonna regret in a few moments, but I was already in it, might as well take care of them.
It was maybe Giannas fault, or even partially mine, but it didn't matter.
I shook my head and provoked, "Heh, another punch should do the trick!.
The man gnashed his teeth as vines popped in his forehead.
"What are both of you waiting for?! Kill the brat now!" The muscular man shouted towards his subordinates whilst still clutching his stomach.
He showed a wide grin, "You might be an Aura Warrior but so are we! You might be a stage higher but with the three of us, we can easily take you down."
Aura warrior?
First time I heard of it.
The yellowed-teeth dude took out a dagger from his chest, his other friend on the other hand charged at me all of a sudden.
There was a manic glint in his eyes as he screamed, "Prepare to die brat!"
He pulled out a chain the length of an arm and looked like he was going to strangle me with it.
I moved fast and cleared out any unnecessary thoughts in my mind, my mind immediately changed into battle mode.
