{3rd person POV}
It's been three months since Adonis's parents went to a planet he knew nothing of to get executed and he has shown no hint of emotion since. It's like he is a machine made for a single purpose and that's to grow in strength.
In these three months, he only ate thrice, he didn't even take care of his body as his hair already turned gray growing to his neck, and his milky white iris turned blue due to the amount of power condensed in his body.
The train slowly came to a stop and for the fourth time in three months, Adonis stood up and walked out of the train. He was able to go months without bathing since he had no waste product in his system, he didn't even sweat.
He got down from the train and took a hover taxi to The Necron's Mansion. Adonis got out of the hover taxi and tried entering the Necron's family compound but he was stopped by the Necron family guard "What do you want Peasant" the guard asked with obvious disdain as he looked at Adonis from head to toe. Adonis wore a crisp white T-shirt, paired with rugged military pants and a worn leather jacket that added a touch of ruggedness to his ensemble. His military-styled boots, polished to a high shine, completed his outfit, exuding a sense of practicality and readiness for action but he appeared too young to be in the military so the guard thought he was a military officer servant.
"I am here to see Sir Ashburn," Adonis said showing the crest his mother gave him to the guard "Captain, that's Sir Ashburn's crest" A guard informed the guard speaking with Adonis "Wait here b, oy" The captain said as he went into the compound to look for Ashburn. The Necron Compound was very huge reaching the size of an average state, a while the captain returned.
"What did sir Ashburn say," one of the guards asked, "Sir Ashburn said we should take him to the tournament house, if he doesn't win his first five consecutive matches we are to throw him out," the Captain said with a strange look on his face "How did he look when he said that," the other guard asked "He looked like he was happy and hateful at the same time" the captain replied "We haven't found a different look on his face since we've known him," the guard said
"I came here to meet Ashburn because my mother told me to. I didn't come to fight with anyone" Adonis said as he tried walking away or at least he tried to as the guards surrounded him "Do you think this is a place that you can come and leave as you please" the captain said with a frown on his face. "I came with my legs and I will leave with the same legs," Adonis said emotionlessly "You are just as clueless as your father, I thought your mother would teach you making you better than this," A manly and strict voice said and the guards turned to place their hands on their chest as they bowed "Lord Ashburn," They all said
"You are Ashburn," Adonis asked as a man who looked like he was in his 30s came out of the compound. He was muscular with brown skin and as he moved forward an aura of dominance and bloodlust spread from him the guards except the captain all moved back in fear but Adonis stood still feeling nothing "At least you have a strong mind" Ashburn said nodding "My mother said you will train me if I can here with the crest" Adonis said looking straight into Ashburn eyes "You are not ready to train with me yet" Ashburn said and Adonis turned around to leave "I didn't say you could leave" Ashburn said and Adonis stopped.
"I don't have any reason to stay if you are all useless," Adonis said "Disrespectful," the captain said but didn't do anything "Who is the weakest here," Ashburn asked and a guard timidly pointed to one of the guards who had fainted already "What a waste, who is the weakest beside him," Ashburn said and another guard raised his hand "Prove to the boy that you are not useless," Ashburn said and the guard moved forward towards Adonis smiling with confidence. Without saying anything the guard attacked Adonis who just stood there tanking the hit with his body alone
To others, Adonis was overconfident in his body but what they didn't know was that Adonis didn't even see the attack and had no choice but to tank it with his body. As the first landed on Adonis's chest his clothes tore into pieces as a small explosion took place and soon steam started coming out of Adonis's body "You are wasting my time" Adonis said as he held the guard's hand and the guard screamed in pain as he felt his hands burn as flames busted out of Adonis body standing around him like an aura.
With a strike to the chest the guard was sent flying "Why don't you go captain" A guard said and the captain turned to look at Ashburn with a questioning look "Go" Ashburn said and Adonis sighed "I told you, you are ....." Before Adonis could finish his words the captain's fist landed on his chest and it carved in before he was sent flying "Too Arrogant, talent isn't hard work it's called having it easy" the captain said as he moved as a blur landing another hit on Adonis back before he could stop flying soon Adonis has been sent flying in different directions with countless broken bones "Enough" Ashburn said and Adonis landed at his feet spitting out blood.
Adonis's body was healing rapidly as flickers of lighting appeared around him in his aura of flames he tried standing but the captain pressed his head to the ground with his foot "Stay there peasant" the captain said "Leave him alone" Ashburn said and the guard moved back "I see that you are stubborn despite your empty emotionless eyes" Ashburn said as he raised Adonis by his hair not minding the flames crawling up his arms as they were absorbed into his body "You are wasting my time" Adonis said with the bloody mouth "Still arrogant in your present state" Ashburn said and Adonis tried holding his hand and Ashburn sneered.
"I'm nothing like this waste you faced the other time, I am true power," Ashburn said and he slowly took his knee up his knee made light contact with Adonis's stomach, and a light shockwave spread to the environment as Adonis spat out the mixture of blood and spit before he was knocked out. "Lock him up in the tournament house. He is not allowed to leave until he has achieved 5 consecutive matches, hopefully, he can do that before his 18th birthday" Ashburn said and the captain was surprised "He is eighteen" the captain asked in surprise "Of course, I was there when they gave birth to him" Ashburn said as he walked forward to enter the compound "And captain when it gets to a point only talent can make you improve your ability" Ashburn said as he left.
