So, in the company's gym.
A sweaty training session began again.
...
Elsewhere, in a quiet alleyway.
A grey figure suddenly appeared, slowly coming to a halt.
The man raised his hands, looking at the remnants of his shattered gloves.
"What an impolite fellow..."
"To strike at me the moment he became aware of me."
He slowly turned around, looking in the direction where the exchange had just taken place.
"But, it's also very strange."
"This person clearly has the strength of a core member, yet he is still just a formal disciple? Is he hiding his strength, or is there another reason?"
The figure gazed quietly, as if he had made up his mind about something.
"Should I test it out?"
"In a few days, when the Yabadon Life Tree has matured."
"Lure one or two creatures and Void Demons that have run out from the deeper world."
"Then... hehe..."
A faint laugh dissipated into the quiet alleyway.
...
Huaisui City, in a private warehouse.
Bang!!!
