Leo's heart raced as he stood in his dimly lit basement laboratory, surrounded by shelves filled with books and various scientific equipment. The air crackled with anticipation as he prepared to conduct a daring experiment with magnets. Little did he know that this experiment would forever change his life.With careful precision, Leo arranged an array of magnets on a table, their magnetic fields intertwining and creating an intricate pattern. His hands trembled slightly with excitement as he adjusted the magnets, ensuring their alignment was perfect.
As Leo activated an electromagnet, a surge of energy filled the room, causing the magnets to vibrate and emit a faint hum. Suddenly, a blinding flash of light erupted from the center of the magnet array, engulfing Leo in its brilliance.
When the light subsided, Leo found himself gasping for air, his surroundings completely transformed. The basement laboratory was replaced by a lush forest, bathed in the golden hues of the setting sun. Confusion and awe washed over him as he realized he was no longer in his lab "teleportation"? Leo thought. This is only the word that can explain the situation he was in right now.
Looking down at his hands, Leo noticed a faint glow emanating from his palms. As he focused his thoughts, the glow intensified, and he felt an invisible force tugging at metallic pin on his lab coat where his ID is. It was then that he discovered he can manipulate metal properties or so they called magnetism,he played with this newfound abilities for a while even imagining himself flying in the sky same as the famous villain in the movie back on Earth.Apart from studying on what other use for magnet Leo also like to read books,watch movies and play virtual games on his free time. He don't have many acquaintance aside from some colleagues and far away relatives whom he sees only when there is a family occasions. Leo also have three siblings and all have their own family he was the youngest so when both of his parents are deceased he was helped by his siblings on his expenses but that is not enough because of the high cost of living in the city so he enter college late by five years because of some accident. Because of the sudden death of his parents Leo was force to do different jobs in order to earn and save the money for his education with only the will to survive as his motivation to never give up attitude he work his ass of until one day he was pick up by criminal group to do an odd job. Because of the promise high pay he was allured by it,oblivious that a group of highly dangerous individuals was on the tail. After he was done with the job the promise pay never came. What transpire next is his naked body hanging upside down about to be shot in the head,they say if you are about to die your entire life will flash into your mind but Leo only thought about his wasted time trying to have money which he should just do the things he wants to do and enjoy his life to the fullest. In a dilapidated warehouse where dust and dim light meet Leo's bruised and naked body could be seen hanging

"Cough!! Cough!! I already told you I have given the package" Leo said
"Do you know that a thief and liar come from the same parents?"This man have only one eye ,this is also the one that torture Leo the one eyed man continue " well in order for you to talk I think I need to bring your brothers and sister here,what do you think Leo boy?""Shit! I swear if you threatened me this way it will only make me angry and you don't want to see me angry bastard,I have completed my job so you have to pay me what is this all about?"Leo tried to divert the topic so that the criminals will not touch his family,he had given the package to the address and the man they told him to but when he came back to collect his payment they caught and restrain him.The one who looks like the boss sitting at the dark answer his phone.
"Kill him let's go" the boss ordered and go away.The one eyed man click the trigger about to shoot him."Bang,bang,bang"
When the gun points at his head the only thing he thought is that how fragile life can be how did all of this is happening on him when he only wants to earn money for college what a waste of time he is doing he should just enjoy every moment in his life he should just live for himself money is created to be used by people not the other way around,gunshot and dust flew everywhere blinding everyone after everything settled down Leo was flabbergasted by the scene every criminal was killed either amputated or having a twisted neck in an abnormal angle there are only seven people standing blood was visible on their hands. It was to sudden Leo felt despair seeing the man closes to him it was the man who received the package he delivered earlier. Leo have a hunch this group is more brutal than the criminals,they are talking in a foreign language. What Leo didn't expect is that this group will be interested in him bringing five years of hellish training and mission to shape him as the best warrior a human could be in a flesh body.
Mercenary POV: Mister Conley was surprised because they didn't expect a civilian to be entangled by the criminal group they are about to eliminate. When he saw that the criminals are about to put an end to the civilian life he made a move first prompting for his colleagues to follow and what transpire next was a scene you only saw on movies. When all the criminals are dead he look at the civilian who is hanging upside-down,Conley didn't know what made him want to save the life of this boy it was like a natural reaction of his subconscious even if he take pity on others he isn't a man who is rash. There are many mission they have taken on involving a sacrifice of not only one innocent life. "Interesting, we'll bring him" Conley command at his subordinates. His interest is piqued he was like a child who find a new toy. At first they just given Leo a mundane task but they are shock to find that this boy do have a natural instinct of a high class warrior strength, endurance, agility, speed, reflexes, coordination in a multi cellular level, stamina and tactical thinking a skill set they as a veteran warrior when compared to Leo was just a toddler. The group like Leo allot because their mission became easier so in order to have a smooth sailing job they pour all their knowledge unto Leo's which he happily accepted all their training. With only three years from when they "abducted" Leo he became the best in the group completing missions solo,even Ragnar the second in command praise Leo saying no human can match his skill even the one who is known as "The Beast". When Leo heard this he was interested who is this man with the title,Ragnar only vaguely explain that in this world there are martial artist who have a skill that even United States have to give face and this "The Beast" is the stongest. Reaching this point of conversation Ragnar remember the day he once fought that "beast".
