Chapter 6 - Training Room

We see Maxwell and Akuro who were in a huge room, where we see them sitting on the huge tatami ground.

Maxwell: How rich is this guy…and why does he have this room…

Akuroi chuckled as he relaxed on the floor. "I mean…he was a yakuza, he is richer than you think."

Maxwell looked down at sensei who was taking a rest, the story of Hiro was still haunting his mind and he had so many questions. "How did you guys meet each other…?"

Akuro's smile held a mysterious quality as if he knew something that Maxwell didn't. "I'm sorry...but I won't tell you that."

"Because," Akuro began, his voice tinged with a hint of amusement, "only Hiro knows the true depths of his own story. It's his journey, his experiences, his pain."

Maxwell furrowed his brow, intrigued by Akuro's cryptic response.

"But why wouldn't you tell me?" Maxwell pressed, curiosity piqued.

Akuro's gaze softened, a knowing glint in his eyes.

"Sometimes, Maxwell, there are tons of stories…stories of me that I just won't feel like telling to you yet…," Akuro explained. " And Hiro's tale is a part of him, and it's up to you to seek out the answers you're looking for."

Maxwell nodded slowly, absorbing Akuro's words. He realized there was wisdom in what his sensei was saying – sometimes, it is better to wait.

Suddenly, The door sound echoed in the huge room. We see Hiro with a black shirt attached to his huge pecs, gray sports pants, and a white socket.

He had this creepy yet calm glare in his eyes which made Maxwell shake a little.

"Alright." he started "Let's get to business."

Hiro sat down in front of him, legs crossed. "So kid, tell me…Did Akuro tell you about how to use the bracelet?"

Maxwell nodded "Uh…Yes, I have to concentrate my mind on a certain monster…but besides Wulmar..and me not knowing what to do…I'm still stuck…"

Hiro turned to Akuro with an annoyed look, "You idiot didn't even give him enough context?!"

Akurojumpsp slightly as he hides himself behind Maxwell "W-well...You know how lazy I am…! I just explained to him the basics, I wanted you to tell him the rest..!"

Hiro growled at him before sighing in defeat "What your stupid sensei forgot you to say is…you have the power to reveal more monsters, but they are not still in the trust to be with you right now."

Maxwell to Hiro's talking and nodded "I see…But how monster do I possess?"

Hiro put his hand on his chin. "Hmm…Well, Ashes Insanity has many monsters…But I can say...You have unleashed 7 Monsters."

Maxwell's eyes widened "...O-oh that's…"

He couldn't believe it, 7 monsters…This is the amount he has inside him…Maxwell realized that this will be harder than he thought, not like he thought this was easy in the first place.

Hiro smiled at him as felt the anxiety inside of Maxwell, "Do not worry much…As I told you earlier, the monster needs to gain your trust to transform, so it might take some time."

Maxwell nodded slowly as he listened to Hiro's explanation.

Hiro: Can you tell me what Monster did you transform as…?

Maxwell: Well…Wulmar…

Hiro eyes widens and looks down at Akuro for some explanation, but to his surprise Akuro sighs as he looks away in the distance. He strangely kinda knew what was going on.

"Well…that's surprising…" he said with a strange tone of interest.

Maxwell: I-is there a problem…?

Hiro shake his head "Not at all…Is just, is surprise you got him as your first Monster.

Maxwell stood silent, It seems like Hiro also know stuff about Wulmar. Is he really that special?

Suddenly Hiro suddenly got up, "It settles, I'm gonna train you. But you better be ready cuz again….

I ain't gonna be a lot gentle with ya."
