Chapter 160

Bustling noises kept tugging the active city, as always. Busy people came and go as the day continued, making the city more lively, especially now that a tournament was being held. The people who saw the fight of the Philippines National Team were chatting excited as all of them were talking about one topic.

The emergence of the first Rank 1, what they saw on that screen was enough to catch their attention. They were amazed about it, witnessing how a single man dominated a battle.

Mikael Tibano was one of the first pillars of the Hunter world, he made many things such as liberating his city from the ants or saving Qatar against the terror of Hydra. He was famous for being the Rank 1 of the first batch.

The title of strongest was put on him and all of the Hunters at that time accepted it. Nobody could fight him head to head, and now his appearance shook the world. The whole world, people from every part of the world had seen his fight, every strand of their hair stood as they watched how he won the battle. Even now, his fight was repeated in every kind of media, making him the center of attraction.

His debut was the best, within just a minute, he eliminated 14 participants and after that, he defeated a captain of the Redemption Guild. Mikael's reemergence in the tournament made many people thrilled. Mikael had become famous for just an hour after his battle finished.

Right now, the prominent guilds who watched his fight were starting to do their research, one thing that caught their attention was that Mikael was a freelancer!

He didn't join any guild! His contract with the Redemption was already terminated when the founding members separated. This meant that Mikael could join any guild as long as it met his criteria! What a chance!

The Guildleaders who saw his fight determined that Mikael didn't use his full strength. They were curious how far could Mikael go, some were even interested in asking him to join their Guild. Mikael was strong and they wanted strong members, Mikael was the best that they could find. They believed that Mikael could make their Guild reach greatness.

Lane joined the Dominators, that Guild became the best Guild in America added that the Guildleader Jake Raynold was there too.

Klein joined the Blue Swallow, that Guild became the strongest Guild in South- East Asia added that the Guildleader Rena Scott was there too.

Anyway, the truth that every one of the founding members of Redemption had the ability to topple the power structure of every region on Earth was true.

Actually, many Guilds were trying to ask Miriam to join their Guild because she was the most frightening of them, her power could locate, stalk and gather information. She was the best Hunter that every organization wanted, still, she didn't accept any of these requests. She wanted to leave away from the killing, she already had a child and all she wanted was a peaceful life.

Some tried to entice her by stating that they could kill Kyle, noted that Miriam and Kyle had bad blood with each other. Only a few people, as low as ten knew that Miriam and Kyle had a child. Nobody knew the truth except those trusted people.

Right now, many people were in front of the hotel that Mikael was staying in, they were like bees craving for honey. All they wanted was one thing, to get a scoop of the dessert called Mikael Tibano. They consisted of reporters and managers who wanted to interview or recruit him. The reporters wanted to know what happened and why he disappeared. As for the managers, it was already obvious what their intention was. They wanted to recruit him to join their guilds since Mikael's talent was hard to come by.

Mikael was at the window staring down at them. He sighed as his expression was disheartening, he knew that showing his face to the public would cause him inconvenience but he didn't think that it would cause this much. He couldn't get out of the hotel because even the hallway outside of his room was packed with people, they were like hyenas yearning for flesh.

Furrneka wanted to summon her Black Serpent to roast them but Mikael begged her not to. More problems would arise if she made a commotion.

The conversation that he had with Kyle and Christian was awkward. He didn't know how to talk to them since their appearance was different from what he remembered. Kyle was talking bullshit that even Lane became tired and left the room earlier.

Mikael erased those thoughts, he still had grudge against Kyle but he let it slipped since Kyle told him the reason why he did it. Although Mikael still didn't like it.

The schedule of their fight was already known and Mikael still had three hours to spend on his own. He wanted to go to the famous statue of Christ The Redeemer here in Rio de Janeiro but it seemed that he had to postpone it. The hyenas were still waiting outside of his room.

While he was staring down at the window, he saw a familiar face. A woman was walking and there were a pair of people who were following her.

"Is that Ai...?"

He saw that Ai Biyu was walking to the hotel, the reporters that were in front of the hotel clicked their cameras and tried to interview her, flashes of light glimmered as she walked. However, a pillar of fire emerged on the ground and blocked them by trying to get closer, the pillar further expanded not caring about the reporters.

The reporters who were nearest to the pillar immediately backed away. They found that some parts of their clothes were burned, they tried to kick their tongue because of annoyance but they stopped it when they found that the two Hunters behind Ai Biyu were glaring at them.

Ai Biyu advanced to the hotel, the security wanted to ask her to stop activating her Skill. Thankfully, Ai Biyu deactivated it before they even asked her. She entered the hotel and her followers went to the elevator and clicked the button. They moved upward and reached the floor where Mikael was staying in.

Mikael who felt her presence had a confused expression. He didn't know why Ai was here, does she have a business here on this floor? Perhaps she has an appointment with people from this floor.

"Yeah, it's the best answer I can think of. It's impossible that she would go here just to meet me."

Mikael was convinced of his reasoning. He believed that Ai Buyi had another reason why she was here. Mikael knew that Ai Biyu hated him because of what happened seven years ago.

However, that reasoning was splashed away when he heard a doorbell. He paused and didn't know what to do. The doorbell rang again, Mikael decided to use his Dragon Slayer to detect and confirm if Ai Biyu was the one who clicked the doorbell.

"Nyah? Who's there?"

Furrneka's ears twitched when she heard the sound of ringing.

Another man clicked the doorbell and it was a lackey of Ai Biyu, Mikael felt their presence getting irritated.

The doorbell rang again, Mikael had no choice but to open it. He deactivated his Title and went to the door. When he was one meter away from the door, he felt that the temperature was increasing. A flame came out of the cracks around the door until it was fully melted. Ai Biyu destroyed the door and entered with an irritating gaze.

Mikael and Furrneka were dumbfounded, the door of their room vanished or to be exact it melted.
