Chapter 21 - THE RULES

Both of them were not holding any weapons. According to the rule that Jevro said, we will only fight with physical strength. So now, every time Jevro attacks me I have to dodge or sometimes Block. It's not difficult, maybe because of my fights before. Jevro is strong and fast if I compare him to other Malemyns. But for me, hmm.. maybe I can say hes only 1/4 of my speed when it comes to speed ratings.

"Are you sure you've been awakened for 3 days?" He asked me.

"En. I am."

"Impossible, you are too skilled if I believe the three days you say." He said before he attacked me again.

Every time Jevro threw a punch, I could feel the weight and strength wrapped around his fist. If red Malemyn are hit by his attack, they will surely receive heavy damage. Fortunately, im a purple Malemyn. If I'm not mistaken, we've been sparring for over thirty minutes.

"I forgot to tell you, I was a taekwondo student when I was still in middle school." I answered him even though its a lie.

It's not the right time for him to know the truth. And it's not even the right time for me to tell him everything. I need to be sure that I can trust Jevro no matter what.

"Ugh..!"

I stopped when I heard Jevro moan as he attacked me with punches. I quickly wrapped my arm around his body.

"What happened? Is your Redo attacking?" I asked him.

"No. It seems that the wound I got during my fight against Sikriya has not completely healed yet." He answered.

I helped him to sit on the floor before I lifted the hem of his t-shirt. He was right, the edge of the wound that had barely healed above the skin was red. It's obvious that it's not good inside. Not surprisingly, Jevro's body was hit by magic so his body will take a long time to heal. Luckily, Allyssa checks on him every day.

"You were right. You can't act too much yet. Lets stop this spar. Rest first. Later, have Allyssa check your wound to give healing. Speaking of Allyssa, is she your perfect match? " I asked while putting my hands behind my back.

Jevro tiredly lay down on the floor and rested his head on my thigh. His eyes were closed as he rested his left palm over his wound.

"She's not. The matching rate between the two of us is only 60%. So I need two Gwandys assisting me."

"You mean to say, when your Redo attacks, two Gwandys are next to you to heal you?" I asked him while staring into his closed eyes.

"Yeah."

"I see, that's why Rowan is so mad at you. You're like a prince in the Monster Department. You're the nephew of the head, and you have two Gwandys assigned to you. Maybe if I were in Rowan's situation, I'd be jealous too ."

I'm just kidding. But I don't understand why I feel a little annoyed at those moments. It makes me wonder if I'm jealous because someone else is concerned about him and I'm not. Or maybe I'm annoyed because instead of me being by his side, another Gwandy is doing my duty. Yeah! that's why i feel annoyed.

"I don't feel from the tone of your voice that you are upset. rather I feel something, regret?" Jevro said.

I automatically bent down and our eyes met. He was staring at me as if he was wondering if his suspicions were correct. However, I tried to smile even though I knew it didn't reach my eyes. Then I took my gaze back and focused it on the wall.

"Regret my ass! Get up and we'll go to the Department so we can check your wound." I'm avoiding the topic that is slowly developing.

Jevro just grinned before slowly getting up from lying down. I also stood up so we could go out together. I just followed him while walking.

I went straight to my room to take a shower. I wonder what would happen if I were to spar with one of America's representatives. What if I beat them? Will they accept their defeat? Should i act weaker than those red men?

"Nope! I cant do that now. They've seen that I can finish Rowan in just two moves. Acting weak is no use." I said while getting dressed.

Wearing a maroon hoodie that I paired with black jogging pants, I also put on my black rubbershoes. Because of hiding from the government before, even my method of wearing stylish clothes has also changed. If I used to be known in school as the number one handsome in school, now, even my former classmates don't know me anymore.

I looked at my hair. My hair is quite long and my golden eyes are covered. Using telekinesis, I used the scissors that were resting on the table in the room. I cut my hair according to the hairstyle I want. Then I put on the black face mask before going out.

"You cut your hair?" Jevro asked now facing Arnold while adjusting his black long sleeves that were folded up to his elbows.

"En,is it ugly?" I answered while lightly touching the end of my hair.

"Nope. It suits you. I can see your eyes clearly." He answered before checking himself.

Arnold also finished what he was doing and he barely bowed to say goodbye to his boss. Jevro took the sword that he always carried wherever he went. then put on the black gloves.

"Shall we?" He called my attention.

"Yeah.. Let's go."

At 8:30 we arrived at the monsters department. When we entered the big room where everyone was training, the people inside turned to us as if they were the same person. I quickly saw Alfonso just sitting on one side while observing. I winced slightly when I felt the bloodlust that was directly focused on me. I looked up, my eyes locked with Rowan's eyes who were now staring at me with bloodlust. Being cold blooded, my aura quickly changed and I gave him a colder and more dangerous look. I saw how he was jolted before looking away from me.

"Lets go, Alfonso is calling us. Dont pay attention to those weaklings who pretend to be strong." Jevro whispered to me after giving me a soft nudge.

I just nodded and gradually followed him. I could feel everyone's eyes on Jevro and me but like he said, I didn't pay attention. Until we stood in front of Alfonso. To be honest, Alfonso's aura is very hidden compared to other Malemyns. Or maybe because, he's also strong like me?

"It's good that you've come. Come here Yohan. I'll introduce you to Devaugn. He's your temporary spar today. I'm sorry if I can't refuse them. Actually, Alistair wants to spar with you so badly. It's a good thing he agreed to just watch first because I said that you have only been awakened for 3 days." Alfonso explains while leading the way to American representatives.

"It's fine. Although I don't know why they are so interested in my awakening. After all, Jevro should be the one they pay attention to because he is the number one Malemyn in the country." I replied coldly.

I feel annoyed, to be honest. I came out of hiding because I wanted to protect Jevro. Not to get the attention of the American representatives. I feel like I want to regret coming out of my hiding place.

We stopped in front of seven black Malemyns who looked at me seriously. Their blue eyes are staring at me as if they are reading my mind right now. I felt even more irritated. And maybe because of the way they were looking at me, I mindlessly speak.

"Should I fight them one by one?" I asked Alfonso who violently turned to me. "Just kidding." I immediately added.

Alfonso breathed a sigh of relief. But the facial expression of those in front of us became serious. I can also see their aura thickening. I'm sure now, these people want to test my power and how far my limit is.

"Excuse me, Mr. Sifyola. My men here really wanted to spar with you. Don't worry, I asked them not to torture you. They are all black men with high fighting rate." Alistair explained.

The tone of his every word is full of apologies but the opposite of the aura he gives off. I'm not stupid enough not to know that they will do anything just to see my limits. Should I at least leave a wound on their faces? Nah! I can't! I don't want the Philippine monsters department and the American to have a misunderstanding. But... what if they did something against the rules?

"What are the rules?" I have a deep and serious question.

Alistair gave me a smile. "Whoever triggered their Redo first, lost. No weapons allowed to avoid getting injured. The raid will be in just a few more days, so I want everyone unscathed." The American answered.

I nodded. "No weapons, but powers can be used?" I asked again to be sure.

"Yes. Since Gwandys can easily heal any awaken power attack to the body. you can use superpower to attack." Alistair explained further.
