Chapter 16

Tap Tap

In the midst of silence that pervaded a room, a blond youth with blue eyes look at the kneeling figure of a black-haired man and to his side, was a similar blond hair with lifeless brown eyes. When the black-haired man heard the tapping sound, he trembles and didn't dare to disturb the blond youth sitting on the armchair coldly looking at him.

The tapping sound stop, but he didn't still say anything as he was waiting for his young master to speak, " So what happened?" A cold voice echoed the room.

"Young master, I apologize for my incompetence;" Wei explained what happened in the abandoned factory, the fact they met an expert who easily subdues them.

"That expert also said that if this happens again, he doesn't mind exterminating the Pontic family." Saying this, Wei suddenly shivered when he remembered the man who beat them like a helpless child.

Bam

Clarence slams his fist on the armrest, destroying it with splinter scattered on the ground, his eyes turned red from anger. "Damn, who do you think he is if he was from high ranking family. I may consider his threat but a mere bodyguard to threaten our family is a big disgrace itself."

Clarence was arrogant, but he knew that his strength is only at the bottom. He was a young master of the Pontic family, so his knowledge of the Martial community is not inferior to the patriarch himself. The lowest patriarch of a high ranking family reaches the power of martial dan, while the middle-rank family could only attain the realm of Xantian, so if you compare them was like heaven and earth.

The ordinary member of the mid-rank family could only reach the level of body strengthening while the high-rank has a lot of Xantian realm, the same as their patriarch so when Clarence learns about this information. He gritted his teeth in determination to surpass the high-ranking family, as of now he only possessed the strength of peak 9th level of body strengthening with one more step he will reach the level of Xantian.

With this level of strength, while being 12 years old, Clarence was considered to be a genius even with the eye of the high-ranking family. But not many know this fact, it was only known by the elders and Patriarch himself. It's not that he leak the information regarding his strength, it's that his realm is not high enough to avoid the sense of the Xantian expert.

"That bastard, did he think I was afraid of him?" Bearing the pressure coming from Clarence, cold sweat started to appear on Wei's back he didn't know that his young master strength reaches an unfathomable level.

'Just a single step, I will use those arrogant high ranking genius as my stepping stone.' Clarence silently thought.

"For now, don't do anything. We don't know the strength of the other party yet, we better act cautiously than to take a wrong step to destroy our effort." Glancing at Paul who turned into a retard.

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

"To turn him to this state, that person must be at least a Xantian level. Dispose that garbage and make it look like an accident;" Clarence expression was cold as he ordered Wei.

"Yes, young master." Wei bowed and dragged Paul outside the room, looking at their departure back. 'I need to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.' Clarence thought as he headed to the underground laboratory.

Meanwhile, Jack, Arvin, and Romnick are on their way to school, after expressing their goodbye to Angelica who has that smile still hang on her face.

"Hey Romnick, are you sure that she was your mother?" Arvin carelessly said.

"Oh, why do you ask?" Romnick eyebrow pricked as he asks back.

"Well, what should I say. You don't seem similar to your mother, and she seems to be only 24 years old. The first time I came to your house, I already notice that your temperament was different from your mother also the way, you and your mother interact seems to be forced." Arvin adjusts his glasses as he explained his analysis while Romnick was shocked that he forget to answer his question.

Jack glance at the small figure of Avin as he remembered an anime. 'Is he detective Conan?'

"One more thing, you're supposed to be Mother was like a princess while you're like a regular citizen living in that kind of mansion, Imagine, if you are born rich, you will have the temperant of noble aura, but it seems to me that you only have the aura of a villager A in an RPG game."

"Damn, Are you the reincarnation of Conan or something." Romnick thought.

"Well, it's not like I want it to hide from you guys, so please keep it a secret between us." Seeing that Jack and Arvin nodded seriously, Romnick took a deep breath.

"Angelica was, in reality, is my aunt. She took me when my parents pass away due to some accidents, so if you are curious why would I call her mother was because she forces me." Romnick was on the verge of tears when he remembers the scene where she was using him as a scapegoat for her pursuer.

"I know what you feel." Jack patted Romnick back as he comforted him.

It also reminded his aunt Marie, when he heard Romnick. 'Speaking of Big sis, didn't she said that she has something to talk to me, I think I will go home early today.' Jack thought.

After recovering, Romnick glared at Arvin as if remembering something. "Arvin, now that I told mine, then it's about time you say something about yourselves."

"Well nothing special, I was the son of an infamous inspector 'Locke Hughes' and my mother was a world class athletes 'Mae Sugar.' Arvin proudly put up his chest.

"Fuck, so that's why your analysis was always above other, you are born to be a detective." Then Romnick eyes suddenly brighten as he said. "Hey, why don't we create a club name, Detective Conan?"

Arvin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You shit, you already belong to the Kick-boxing club, and you planned to create another one? Are you an idiot?"

"You idiot are you asking for a beating, dare to say, idiot again see if I do not dare to beat you up." Romnick gritted his teeth in anger.

"Well, I will tell teacher Tricia that you were bullying me, hehe."

"Damn you."

"Hmm, speaking of a club, Jack did you join any club yet?" Arvin suddenly asked.

Romnick eye lit up as he put his hand on Jack's shoulder. "Ehe, Jack you can join in Kick-boxing club, I will personally recommend you."

"Oop, don't take the member of my shooting club!" Arvin pushes Romnick aside as he put a gentleman smile on his face.

"Damn you, Arvin, you're just after the school credit, I won't allow you to take advantage."

Looking at two arguing on each other, Jack rubbed his forehead as he suddenly felt a headache. "Hey, guys, what about I try the club first If I am better in any of it. I will join okay?"

Arvin and Romnick eyes lit up, as they put their hand on his shoulder. "Jack will enter the Kick-boxing club for sure."

"Idiot, he will join the shooting club."

Jack shook his head while the two argue as they dragged him to the school. 'They will not split me into two, right?' Jack thought.
