Chapter 3
“Heh, how about it” The man said, although his face can’t be seen because of his head mask it seems that he’s smiling from the bottom if his heart. “Weak” Carlo muttered. “What!”
The man immediately jumps backward but he was caught by Carlo, while grabbing his left hand Carlo pulled him and punched the man towards his stomach. “GUCK!” The man said as he kneeled down on the floor. Carlo then kicked his head while kneeling down causing him to lie down and lost his consciousness.
“Hmph, if you call that an elite then what am I? A God or something?” Carlo then mocked the sleeping man with harsh word. “Tch, you three gang up on him at once” The girl said as she commanded the men.
“GYAA!” “OORRAA!!” “TAKE THIS!” The three shouted with their full might. *TACK* *TACK* *TACK* The three sword splendidly hit its target. But Carlo didn’t falter. He then kicked the man on his front, the man was sent flying by this, and after that he punched the man on his left and back fist the man on his right using the same fist.
“S-such speed!” The girl can’t help but shout. “Then I will fight you myself!” The girl screamed. Just one hit! All I need is one hit, based on the fight earlier his reaction time is slow. The girl thought.
Unlike the men who were beaten, the girl named Tsubaki Sayaka learned swordsman ship that’s been passed down by their ancestor. She’s superior in both speed and power thus being the greatest swordsman in her generation. Even if it’s a bamboo sword, her hit could still be fatal.
At the moment she raised her sword, she was ready to take the responsibility on what will happened to Kyoshiro. She swung her sword down but. “Why!” She shouted. The reason is Kyoshiro dodged her attack. He easily stepped sideward like it’s a natural thing to do.
“But earlier!” “ Oh that? Well the hits earlier are weak, but yours is different I perceive danger from it” Carlo said.
Sayaka then use the bamboo sword to do a pierce attack but Carlo just grabbed it and put it into his side, he then launched a right hook towards Sayaka. Sayaka raised her left hand to block the fist
Carlo finally launches his fist. “ACK!” The moment that Carlo’s fist and her body collide, she experience an immense pain. It’s different from what she normally experience, the pain from her arms slowly heading to her bones. “KUH!” She said.
She jumps backward to make a distance between her and Carlo. “I don’t have a hobby to make a little girl cry” Carlo said to her. Carlo said this because Sayaka right now has a moist eyes, it’s because the pain from her left arm is too much for her.
Not good, I don’t have sword and my left arms hurts so badly. Just what kind of body this man had? Sayaka thought. “Don’t get full of yourself!” She shouts. She picked the sword that’s left by the elites and rush towards to Carlo.
He can predict my attacks, I must find a way to deceive him. While she’s in the middle of running, Sayaka suddenly jumps towards to Carlo, she throws the sword to him while she’s in the mid air. Sayaka then prepare her fist to make a devastating punch.
It was the technique that’s been thought to me ever since I was a child, I’ve mastered this technique that even father praise me for this. She put her fist in her chamber (Just search the term chamber in Karate since I don’t know what this thing called)
While she’s moving closer to Carlo, she twists her fist as she launched a punch. “TAKE THIS!” She said, Sayaka had a confidence that Carlo wouldn’t be able to evade this punch, since this punch is originally created to trick the opponent. Even her father would find it hard to evade this punch.
By the time Sayaka finally thought that she will finally win the fight, Carlo destroyed it as he easily swept the fist by his right hand, and as Sayaka is inevitably moving towards him, Carlo use the same hand that brush off the fist and grabbed Sayaka’s neck and choke her.
“ACK!” Maybe Sayaka didn’t think that this will happen, her expression was more shocked than hurt. Since Carlo is more taller than Sayaka, she was now hanging in the air as she tried to escape Carlo’s strangle , Carlo then slammed Sayaka to the floor making her bounce a little.
“Are you done now?” Carlo asked. “Then, thanks for entertaining me” He said as he walks towards the exit. “Wait” Sayaka muttered weakly. Carlo heard it and decided to stop. After sometime of recovering, she finally spoke. “Y-your fighting style is crude a-and barbaric….”
“Did you just call me to spout insult” Carlo said in an annoyed tone. “I-I wouldn’t dare that, Ack..” Looks like she’s still in pain. Carlo thought.
“But….But that d-doesn’t change the fact th-that you manage to beat us all” She said. “How can I be strong like…you?” She added.
“Strong me?” Carlo became silent for a bit. “If you want to be strong then don’t look at yourself as strong, that way you can always strive for improvement, because if you look at yourself as strong, you’re already late by the time you realize that you’re surrounded by the people who’s much stronger than you” Carlo said and then leave.
“I see….. not only your strong but also wise..” Sayaka muttered as she finally fell unconscious. Although it sounds cool, what Sayaka didn’t know is Kyoshiro only copied this line from the shounen anime that he’s been watching lately.
*********************************************************************************
What the hell is that? Carlo thought, it’s been only two days but it feels like a long time to him. And what’s more. The people around me, all of them are two beautiful and handsome. Well not all of them, but it’s too unbelievable.
It feels like, I’ve seen this place, not the place exactly but the way it moves. The way people around acts, the personality they have. Carlo feels comfortable yet scared out by this place.
It’s like an anime though. He thought.
Right now, Carlo is walking down the street. He decided to but some food on the grocery since his fridge is almost empty. He’s still racking his brain out on how he’s going to earn money, this man, Kyoshiro has no relatives so he’s basically raising himself up by working and earning money.

“Where should I work?” He said as he continues to walks toward the dark corner of the streets, he saw a girls that’s surrounded by rough looking men. Not this again. He thought. Since Carlo is originally a kind and caring man he can’t just leave this place like there’s no happening.
When he comes closer to the people, he saw the face of the girl. Her ash colored long hair and had a white ribbon that’s tied to it. Her face is gentle and her eyes were droopy making her looks like a air headed one. Her chest area is quite ample despite her figure that’s slim and slender.
“Is there something I can help you with?” Carlo asked with a scary tone. “HAH? What the he--!!” The moment their leader met with the gaze of Carlo, he suddenly froze up and shut his mouth. “Is there anything you want to say?” Carlo replied.
“No-nothing, let’s head back” He said as they quietly left the place. They probably know about Kyoshiro’s real strength or in the worse case, they probably experienced it firsthand.
“My! Thank you for saving me!” The girl suddenly spoke up with Carlo. “I didn’t do anything though” Carlo replied. As much as possible Carlo wants to avoid this girl because in animes that he always watched, this kind of girl is the type that’s bound by trouble.
“Is there anything I can repay you with?” The girl asked. “Nothing” he replied. “That’s not right, I must properly repay the debt that I have” She said with a calm tone. Her voice is gentle as what as her face looks like.
She’s one of those types huh? Carlo thought. Carlo thought that this girl is the type that repays her debts no matter what. Thus he must think something to settle with this girl.
“Then tell me at least your name” Carlo asked. “My my. My name isn’t? Very well, my name is Cassandra Stall or in this country Stall Cassandra” She said. “Then, I will take my leave” Carlo said then walks away to the girl.
“Eh? Is that it?” Cassandra muttered but apparently she’s not getting heard by Carlo.
*************************************************************************************
“This one and this one” Carlo is currently buying some foods. “Also old man, do you have a job that a guy like me can do?” He talks to the one that’s selling him a fish. The man looks tough as he has a big scar on his face.
“Heeh? Then what about getting a part time job at a restaurant?” The man said. “Try to look me at the face and tell me that againt” Carlo then said as he looks at the old man.
“Sorry my bad, then how about help me with the container? Fish are quite heavy especially when you’re alone” He replied. “Heavy works huh? How’s the salary?” Carlo asked. “Well, the pay is not small but not big either, but it can support you since you’re a student. I will also pay you daily so how about it?” He replied.
“I’ve got no choice then since you’re the only one that gave me a proper job” Carlo said as he gave his payment. Before this, Carlo asked a job for the people he have seen but most of them are giving jobs like ‘Trash disposal’ or ‘Special Delivery’ but since it sounded dangerous and sinister Carlo decline them.
“Then tomorrows the start! Be sure to have energy until then” He said at jolly manners.
As Carlo heads to his home, he was blocked off by a group of people wearing a shades and black suits. Carlo put his guard at once. There are so many things that are happening right now!! Since the troubles are appearing one after another, Carlo is now feeling a little depressed.
“You’re Kyoshiro Koutaro right?” one of them asked. “No” He said. “………….” No reply. It looks like they don’t know what to reply to this situation. “Please come with us” One of them suddenly said. “Why?” Carlo decided to ignore what just happened right now.
“We can’t tell the reason” “Then I’m not going” Carlo said as he continue his pace. “Stop!” and all of the sudden, all of them pulled out a taser in their hands. *TST TST* Since the sunlight barely reach the place, the blue light of the teaser illuminate the surrounding.
“Honestly….. It’s like I’m a protagonist of a certain anime or something” Carlo muttered to himself. Carlo put down the foods that he purchased earlier. “You guys, since you resolves yourselves I will fight you all without holding back” Carlo said as his body trembled with excited.
At first Carlo didn’t want this, but everytime this kind of thing happens his body would feel pleasure that he have never tasted before. And that’s not even the thing that make Carlo curious about his new body, it seems that when he possessed this body he suddenly gained on how people moves and different fighting styles that he never knows that existed.
Carlo bent down as he put pressure on his feet. The men alert themselves as they ready themselves. Carlo then leaped towards the men with unbelievable speed. He’s body is moving as if he was made to be a killing machine. Before the men could react, one of them was blown away and has his teaser stole by Carlo.
“Get him!” One of them shouts in panicked. While still in crouching position, Carlo threw the taser in his hands towards to the man in his front. “GIRIRIRIR” The man said, he then receives a swept kick causing him to fell down.
Carlo snatched another teaser again but this time he used it on the man on his left. The man wants to dodge this as he turns to the left, but Carlo predicted it and use more force to follow the man’s movement and making him swallow the teaser.
“Tch! I didn’t think that he’s this strong!” Then Carlo moves to his next prey. The prey immediately raised his hands up while holding the teaser. Carlo jumped to his right side where a wall is located, he used the wall to further more jump higher reaching the farthest of them all who seems to be their leader.
The man didn’t expect that Carlo would reach him as he received Carlos’ punch without any resistance. “GACK!” Carlo use this chance to escape, but while he’s doing this his heart is aching so much, his body want to fight more but Carlo used all of his power to suppress it.
I feel like, I didn’t purchased a limited edition merchandise, is this body loves fighting so much!!
As Carlo runs, he noticed that a vehicle is chasing him. It was a black limo running at its full speed. The window of the limo opened and another man with black suit can be seen peaking at the window. He was holding a stun gun, he’s pointing it towards Carlo.
“IF YOU BASTARDS REALLY WANTS TO PLAY THEN I WILL PLAY WITH YOU A BIT!!!” Carlo—no Kyoshiro is pissed off, the personality of Kyoshiro finally exposed itself.
Carlo slows down his running speed while calculating something. Carlo suddenly jumps toward the limo, he’s targeting the open window where the man is peeking. The man realize this and he suddenly go back inside the limo but he’s too late, he was caught by Carlo causing his face and Carlo’s feet met each other.
In the limo, there’s five more men inside. All of them are surprised by Carlo’s action but they regained their calmness quickly and they pulled out their teaser. The man who is in the drivers seat attacked Carlo with taser, resulting the limo to wiggle.
Carlo evaded it by hairs width. Carlo then chop the arm of the man with his hand making the teaser fell. The man in Carlos back grabbed him and choked him in the neck. Carlo immediately picked up the teaser on the ground with his feet and tossed it in the air.
While in the midair Carlo grabbed the taser quickly and used it on the man behind him. “GAGAGAGA” The man let out a weird voice. All of the black men are panicking right now, Carlos movement is inhuman, his sharp instinct made him really hard to get hit, and strength that’s incomparable even to those trained their body harshly.
One after another, the men in suit gets defeated. Carlo stopped the car by pulling its break. *EEEEKKKK* The limo makes sound as it drifts through the wide streets.
“I-I’m sorry” when all of the clamor finally cease, a small voice can be heard in the back seat.
“What the hell?” Carlo muttered, he then looked at the source of the voice and there he saw the girl that he helped earlier. “What the hell?” He said. After sometime the girl finally regained her calm as she straight her posture and put on her the poker face.
“As I thought, Koutaro-kun is quite exceptional” The girl said with pride. “How the hell did you know my name?” Carlo replied.
“Well, normal because I am Cassandra Stall, the daughter of the world’s largest CEO—” “Just keep your distance to me and well be good” Carlo said and then opens the door.
“Wait, I will be direct now. Koutaro-kun, I Cassandra offers you a job, you will be my body guard” Cassandra said.
“Me? Your bodyguard?” “Yes” “Fuck you” “WHAT!” Carlo decided to leave her as she shouts in agony.
