BXBX NOVEL Chapter 134 - IV
Once again, Yuki teleported to the top of a kingdom\'s walls. Standing there, Yuki was able to find the locations of everyone and see everything he needed. The scenery was much similar to the one at his own kingdom. He could see as people were forcibly being removed from their homes and dragged towards the front gate of the kingdom. Unlike last time however, Yuki was not greeted by 3 squadron leaders. Instead, there was only one. As Yuki looked down at his suit coat, he could see the number 4 in roman numerals which looked like IV. Seeing him, Yuki instantly leaped off the enormous kingdom walls and landed on the ground, in turn causing a small crater on the ground.
"Would you happen to be one of the leaders of this operation?" Yuki asked IV(4).
"That would be correct. Who might you be?" IV(4) asked.
"Well that\'s great. I\'m Yuki, you should\'ve heard of me by now. I\'m just here to deliver one quick message. Pack up your things and leave and we won\'t have any problems," Yuki replied.
"That\'s nice to hear. I can see where you\'re coming from but unfortunately we cannot do that. However, on the other hand, we would be willing to make an exception and leave this place in an instant if you were to join our somewhat humble gang of sorts," IV(4) said.
"You seem like quite the gentleman. Although I would like to negotiate with you a while longer, it is not in my best interest as of now. So do yourself a favour and leave. Remember this, this isn\'t for my well being, it\'s for yours," replied Yuki.
"Well that\'s a shame. Let\'s see here. Could you go and deal with the other two squadron leaders for now. In the meanwhile, I\'ll try to come up with a compromise," said IV.
"You\'ve got yourself a deal. However, if your \'compromise\' does not fit my expectation, you along with all your people will be burned to a crisp," Yuki warned IV before flying off using his ability to look at the other squadron leaders.
As he looked around to find anyone else who might wear a black suit with black tinted glasses, Yuki heard a lot of yelling in the distance. Feeling that IV(4) would need a lot more time to come up with a suitable compromise, Yuki decided that some time spent entertaining himself wouldn\'t cause any harm.
When he arrived at the scene, Yuki was greeted by one of the henchmen from the human trafficking gang. He was busy holding on to the wrists of a woman who was trying to escape from him. She tried to kick and punch but nothing she did worked. Even yelling didn\'t get her any help. Feeling desperate, the woman who was in the process of being kidnapped bit the arm of her captor. Enraged at what the woman had done to him, the captor temporarily let go of her and punched her to the ground. Right as he did that, Yuki arrived at the scene to watch it play out. Hearing Yuki\'s flames, the henchman turned around to face Yuki.
"What do you want, kid? You wanna get punched too?" the henchman said as he began to walk towards Yuki.
"Well, I guess that\'s what happens when power gets to someone\'s head. I should mess with him for a bit," Yuki said to himself.
The moment before the henchman could punch him, Yuki gripped his palm together to create a fist and punched the man faster than he could see. Not understanding what had just happened, the henchman looked around to see the perpetrator. However, to his disappointment, there was no one there. Yuki continued to stand where he was so the henchman couldn\'t put the pieces together.
"Is there something wrong sir? You look troubled," Yuki asked as he mocked the henchman.
"Will you shut up! That\'s it. Since I can\'t find the person who hit me, I\'ll just take it out on you. Then let\'s see what you\'ll say, and that\'s even if you can talk when I\'m done with you," said the henchman as he prepared to strike Yuki across the face.
Yuki sighed in disappointment and reached upwards with his left hand and redirected the punch towards the ground. Without a moment wasted, Yuki aimed for the henchman\'s jaw and punched him once again before he could comprehend what had just occurred.
While the henchman continued to stay confused, Yuki walked past him to help the lady that was knocked down by him. However, the henchman turned around to sucker punch Yuki while he wasn\'t looking. If Yuki was faster than him regularly, his best hope to catch his enemy would be to try a sneak attack. Unluckily for him, Yuki was immune to a sneak attack from a low level player.
Right as Yuki leaned down to help the woman get up, Yuki sensed the henchman. However, instead of looking back and deflecting the attack, Yuki thought he would humiliate the henchman instead.
The second before the henchman could strike his enemy, Yuki quickly reached for the henchman\'s arm with his left palm and twisted it while he punched him with his right hand which made him kneel over in front of the woman he had punched.
"Excuse this fine gentleman\'s actions. He truly didn\'t mean to hurt and as such, he had come of his own free will to apologize to you," Yuki said to the woman as he mocked the henchman before pushing him to the ground.
"So what did you think of that?" Yuki said as he reached his hand forward as he tried to help the woman get up from the ground.
The woman, feeling that she could trust Yuki, accepted his offer and got up on her feet. For some reason, Yuki was surprised to find that she was shorter than him. Yuki wasn\'t used to being taller than a lot of people so it was a nice surprise.
"Who are you and why are you here?" the woman asked.
"I don\'t think you should be concerning yourself with such minor details. You\'ll know soon enough," Yuki said.
Of course if she knew that he was Yuki Kaito, she would instantly hate him. As such, Yuki decided to hide his identity so she could have a little time to forgive her hero. At least, that was what Yuki thought.
