Chapter 17 - SURPRISINGLY STRONG

When we arrived at the location where the said Acon was, the staff of the Monster's Department was already surrounded and ready to attack. The country's soldiers have also been brought those civilian to a safe place. There were a few who chose to stay in their house because they were quite far away from the battle location.

"Do you see those soldiers?" I heard Jevro ask me as he pointed his finger in a direction where there were soldiers placing things on the building and on the ground.

"En. What are they doing and putting?" I asked him.

"They put an Electric device that will prevent the monster from leaving the area. Once those electric devices are activated, it will create a thick barrier that will trap the monster. That's why the monster has no choice but to fight. ." Jevro explained.

I just nodded at what I heard. It is good that the government has created a device that can secure the safety of people who are incapable of protecting themselves. In addition to that, the said device also helps to maintain the small damage that cannot be prevented during the fight.

When the battle between monster and Malemyns starts, every burst of power can destroy the buildings around the area. The government is responsible for making those affected move, and the awakened are responsible for exterminating the monsters.

"That's perfectly great. At least the damage won't be that big compared to when the monsters first appeared." I answered him as I watched the activation of devices around.

When the monsters first invaded the country, almost 1/4 of the country's population was consumed. Everyone thought it was the end of the world at that moment. Many people look for someone to blame for what happened but they can't do anything but accept the fact that humans are weak against gigantic monsters. For two years, people cried out of fear and trauma. Every news about the place that the monster shows, is actually studied by the so-called geniuses of that time.

"The monster has already sensed the barrier surrounding the area. The battle will begin later. Let's go to that tall building." Jevro pointed to a tall building just a few feet away from the barrier.

I quickly wrapped one of my arms around Jevro's body, who was surprised by what I did, before I carried him to the top of the building with my teleportation power. I also released him as soon as our feet stepped on that building. Down below, I could clearly see Acon going against Rowan's group.

The said monster is big indeed. If I compare the size of Acon to an elephant, its size may be equal to the combined size of twenty elephants. Acon's tail began to attack the barrier. I just noticed, the Malemyns are currently wearing earpieces.

"Based on your use of teleportation, why do I get the feeling that you are already very skilled at using your power? Is it really true that you have only been awakened for two days?"

I was secretly stunned by Jevro's question. I even swallowed before I turned to him to answer his question and doubt.

"I practiced yesterday." I answered briefly before returning my gaze to the situation below.

"Ahah! So you practiced for only one day. Well, I think you quickly adopted the changes in your body. Im confused, during your practice, you didn't experience Redo?" Jevro asked again.

The tone of his voice was pure doubt. However, of course I didn't show any panic. I just simply nodded my head and focused on watching the match that had already started. I know that the day will come when Jevro will discover everything too. But for now, I will also do everything to keep my secret a secret.

"Honestly, I'm looking for someone." Jevro said again.

This time, my chest really heaved when I heard what he said. I knew what he was talking about but I tried to furrow my brow to pretend I was interested in what he was saying.

"Looking for someone? Who?"

Jevro looked at me deeply before he answered. "I'm looking for the person who calmed my Redo and killed the Hruon. I can't remember his appearance but, I remember his voice."

"Hold on, You said that someone helped you calm down your Redo. So that means he was a Gwandy. So how did you say that he also killed Hruon?" I asked with a serious frown.

I think I'm the best actor of the year!

"What I'm saying may sound unbelievable but, yes. I'm sure he's a Gwandy and he's also the one who killed Hruon. Because during that time, according to Uncle Alfonso, I was unconscious when they caught up. The monster appeared suddenly at that time and by accident my group was also there during that time."

"So youre saying, that someone is a Gwandy and a Malemyn? How is that even possible?" I ask again.

I feel like I want to applaud myself for my good acting. I feel that I too believe in the lie that I am telling.

"It's surprising, isn't it? Even I can't believe it, but I'm sure. That person is not just my imagination. I have a strong hunch that he's real. So I'll do everything, just to find him." Jevro answered.

He's fucking serious! But...

"What will you do with him if you see him? You can't not tell Alfonso what you discovered. If it is true that he is a Malemyn and also a Gwandy, many countries will be interested in offering him for a large amount just to get him ." My meaningful answer.

I need to know what Jevro's real plan and wants are, before I decide whether to tell him the truth or not. My safety and his safety depend on my true personality. Not only the safety of both of us depends on the whole truth of my being, but also the whole world. When everyone finds out that there is a person with two abilities, I will not only be able to fight monsters but also people with desires in their hearts. People who won't accept that they are not the one who can rise and they are not the one who is powerful.

People like that don't want to be overlapped. So they will do everything just to get rid of the person who overshadows their ability. Even the replacement is the possible destruction of the majority.

"Why would I tell my Uncle? I know that person has a reason to hide everything. Do you think I'm that stupid to fight against someone so powerfully awakened? He can just easily kill me on the spot!" Jevro exclaimed while looking up. "I just want to see him and maybe ask why he is hiding in the whole world even though he is so strong." He also added.

Again, I secretly swallowed before looking down at the building. A Malemyn was accidentally hit by the Acon's tail and is currently being taken away from the scene due to the severe damage he received. Acon is surprisingly strong compared to the detail received by the department.

"You're the one who said that that person has a reason why he's hiding. It just means that even if you search the whole country, you won't find him. Unless he shows up on his own and introduces himself to you. " And that's my plan. But of course, not yet.

I saw Rowan make a big hole in the ground under Acon. Because of that, Acon fell and some Malemyns quickly attacked to take advantage of the situation. Just then, a loud Acon chirping caused everyone to step back. Everyone covered their ears at the same time. Even though there was a barrier around the area, I could feel a strange power surging through my body when I heard Acon's chirping. It's like a hum is squeezing my mind. But that didn't last long, probably because of my Gwandy ability.

"Ugh! What the fuck was that?!" I heard Jevro groan next to me.

When I looked back at him, he is currently covering his ears and his fire attribute is wrapped around his body. It only means one thing, Jevro has been provoked. Maybe because I was annoyed because the monster was still humming, and I could see that everyone below could not move, I quickly took out the two daggers in my hands and without warning teleported closer to Acon.

In just an instant, with my daggers, stealth and the aura I wrapped around my weapons, I effortlessly beheaded the annoying Acon.

The Malemyns and some Gwandys who were crouched on the ground actually took a lot of damage from Acon's chirping. The bleeding of their ears and mouth will be a sign of that. I reached out my arm to lift Jevro and bring him down next to me.

"You fucking Show off!! Who ordered you to interfere in our fight?!" A loud cry from Rowan darkened my facial expression.

I looked at the ungrateful man with a dark look. "Wow! Instead of thanking me because you're still alive today, you actually managed to scream in front of me? Did Acon crush your brain so you can't think straight?" I told him deeply and full of anger.
