"By the way, sir, what's your full name?" Nyx asked because he didn't know the latter's name; he had just been addressing the latter as Boris for a while now, not knowing his full name. Asking someone their name was one way to start a friendship. Nyx wanted this relationship so that he could use this facility again in the future.
"My name is Boris Johnson," Master Boris said with a light smile on his face. "Not the ancient UK prime minister, just another Boris. Anyways, good luck kid, let me give you a piece of advice: stick with Momo, you'll go places."
"I plan to, alright, you don't have to tell me, old man," Nyx said in a different tone entirely from his usual respectful tone, causing Boris's expression to change a little.
"Does this kid sound like this always, or am I just noticing it?"
Realizing he had said his inner voice out loud, Nyx quickly said, "Of course, I'll stick to him. Thank you for your concern, good sir."
"A kid with a good attitude goes far," Boris said, even doubting what he had heard the first time.
"Nyx, give us a little time," Momo said as he went to talk with Boris. The red-haired boy complied, although a bit curious about their conversation, he wasn't entirely foolish to eavesdrop on them.
"The boy is special, how did you find him?" Boris said, still looking at the door where Nyx had left.
"Yes, that's why I don't want him to lose to Bob and leave the academy so soon. I think he's what we have been searching for all this time."
"Someone like him?" Boris said, and as if the two shared a tacit understanding, Momo nodded. "Yes, someone like him. I used to think it was Bob, but no, this kid is even more talented, smart, and has the eyes of an experienced old man."
"Keep him safe, old friend. With his talent, I think the Order of the Bloodline Supremacy wouldn't let him see the morning."
"I will," Momo nodded and started leaving.
When Momo and Nyx left in their Lamborghini, at the same time a cab pulled in front of the Hero Bureau and rushing in was none other than the nerdy man who had been monitoring Nyx's progress inside the Hypo suit.
Unfortunately for him, he was too late to catch up with the red-haired boy, and Boris, for some reason, wasn't giving out any information on the boy.
"Sigh, Boss would be angry," the man massaged his temple, thinking about the reprimand he'll receive from his boss, but still, there was a smile on his face. "At least, I took a sample of his biometrics; now anytime he uses any of our products, we would know."
A few minutes later, Momo was driving back to the academy with Nyx. It was just two days remaining before the fight with Bob. Momo was driving a bit faster than usual because he wanted the red-haired boy to get some good rest. Nyx was absentmindedly scrolling through his system status, pleased with his achievement.
Furling and unfurling his fist, the red-haired boy could feel power coursing through his veins. 'When I get stronger, I'll surely visit this place again and kill some monsters. Sorry, Boris, but you'll have to bring in more monsters.'
"Huh? What's this?" The car soon came to a sudden halt. Nyx and the man in a suit were a bit confused as they looked outside at the scene before them.
Before them was a giant muscular man who stood over two meters. His muscular frame was covered in pulsing veins that glowed with red lights, and on his face, there was a barbarian mask that had no spot for eyes or a nose. This big man emitted a profound aura that made the surrounding air feel restless.
Just merely looking at this person, it was easy for anyone to see they were no ordinary existence, but the thing was that this person wasn't alone. Beside him hovering slightly was someone who was cloaked in all black. Their identity was a mystery, but from inside that Cloak Momo and Nyx could see their white eyes.
"The Bloodline Order!" Momo cursed when he saw these people; he knew them very well, and he knew how dangerous their power was, especially the cloaked figure. The usually calm Momo became restless, and he grew even more nervous when he saw the cloaked figure snapping their fingers.
Snap!
With wide eyes, Momo could only watch in horror as he saw the red-haired boy turning into particles and disappearing before his eyes. Even Nyx was left dumbfounded on what was happening. Was he dying? No, it can't be; I still have lots of things to do.
"What is happening to me?" The red-haired boy thought in horror. 'I don't want to die yet, at least not yet. I need to save Anna.' Nyx was scared shitless as he watched his lower part disappearing. He looked at Momo for help but saw the stoic man trembling.
This was the first time he had seen this man tremble like this. He was someone who always kept his emotions in check regardless of the situation; for him to react like this, Nyx discovered how serious their situation was.
'Fuck it! Why do these new generation supes have to have such broken power!' Tears almost slid out of Nyx's eyes when he realized he wouldn't be able to save his sister. That girl would continue her painful life. 'I'm such a useless brother; I don't deserve you, Anna, I don't deserve to be your brother.' A single tear slid out of Nyx's eyes as his body finally disappeared.
The next moment, contrary to his expectations of dying, the red-haired boy found himself in a different vicinity in a valley with towering mountains at his sides. Even the wind was roaring loudly as it tousled Nyx's red hair.
"I'm still alive!" Although this was not the most ideal place to be, Nyx couldn't help but exclaim in joy because he knew he was at least alive. For a few moments, he had felt the thread between life and death, and it was a dreadful experience the red-haired boy didn't want to feel again.
However, just as he was surveying where he was, Nyx felt a terrifying aura from his back, and his hair stood on edge.
Danger!
The red-haired boy jumped back and stared at the direction where the intimidating aura was coming from.
There he could see a man with bald hair and a long mustache staring at him with furious eyes.
It was Isaac.
"Kid, you've made me go through quite the humiliation, huh?" Isaac smiled. "Now prepare for some payback!"
