When the vortex subsided Sakubaru was in wounds but still standing on his feet.
"Y... You're still alive"
"Yes, and since you have done this to me, the price to pay will be giving up your life."
METAL ATTACK
Sakubaru struck the trainer with his arm and when the trainer blocked him, his three fingers became metal.
“I understand. His power is to turn my fingers into metal. Hey! Can i use this hand even though it's made of metal?"
"I don't know, try it"
The trainer tried to punch him, but his hand went too slow so Sakubaru just grabbed it.
"You are done for"
"What?!"
The trainer pulled out a sword with his other hand and cut Sakubaru in half.
"Trainer, shouldn't we have captured him?"
"We should have, but I will just call the police."
After a few minutes, the police arrived at the place where Sakubaru's body was, and the trainer along with Hayagi was there.
"Sir, you will be paid for killing him, but since you killed other soldiers who are not on the wanted list, your bounty will be issued."
"W..What? But trainer-"
"Wait Hayagi. I am fine with getting a bounty."
"I'm glad you understand, now we will pay you and you can leave but first you will have to come with us"
Police took Hayagi and the trainer to the police station where they inquired about everything that had happened and then released them.
"Trainer, the way you killed him was so cool, but they made a bounty for you."
"I know"
"But trainer, how do you have that power? To summon those blades."
"Shit, what can I say to him now? I believe he didn't know that his brother had powers, but he saw me use them. I'm going to have to tell him the truth about how to gain powers. All right, Hayagi, I will tell you how to gain powers."
"Thanks, trainer"

"So there are places in Turkey where people get power. Of course it's not just in Turkey, there are many other places but Turkey is the place where I got them. So once you arrive in Turkey, the most important thing not to do is ask the citizens where you can find the powers. If you ask anybody, the word will reach the police which will then kill you, imprison you, or give you a bounty.
"But trainer, you weren't caught by the police."
"That's because I didn't ask anyone and found it on my own. It took me 3 days and nights but I finally found it. The police hate it when normal civilians get powers, because they usually become criminals. That's why they give them bounties and try to kill anyone who has powers. The place where I got my powers is heavily guarded by the police from 5AM to 11PM.
"Why are they protecting it at that time exactly?"
"Because during the time that they are not guarding it people are sleeping. But they usually leave around two officers to guard it during night too. I waited for the night to come to get my powers. I came to the location and there were just two guards that I killed. I found a crystal that I picked up, and then it just fused with me and I got my power. Just so you know, the power you get is determined by your characteristics, for example I got the power related to swords and other blades"
"And my brother, did he have a power?"
"He had a power, but nobody knows what it was. Same goes for the mysterious man who killed him, he also doesn't have a bounty, just like your brother."
"Mhm I understand, but where is that place where you got your power"
"Well, all these crystals are scattered somewhere around the Earth, but mostly in Turkey there are a lot of them. As soon as a place with crystals is found, the police are there and guard the place."
"And why are the most of them in Turkey?"
"Because the first crystal was found there. A man who lived 1,000 years ago actually created the first crystal from which he created a power for himself, and because of his energy and power, the other crystals were created."
"Mhm I understand"
"Mostly the places where the crystals are located are cities. And usually they are not that hard to spot. There is 4 of them in Istanbul, 2 in Bursa, 2 in Mersin and 1 in Van. These are the places where the crystals are currently in Turkey, and some of those crystals are with the police."
"I'll take some crystal for sure, because this way I don't believe I'll be able to beat someone that strong"
"No, you will not go there, I told you this purely so that you would know, but I do not allow you to go there, because if your brother hid it from you, he would never let you go there and you would be in trouble with the police if you did. Wherever the crystal is, everyone around is trying to get it for themselves, so it is very dangerous and you can easily die while trying to find one. And while I was training your brother, I didn't let him go, but he didn't listen to me and left. Now you see what happened to him. "
"I see but I definitely want to avenge my brother. There was nothing I could do that day, and I don't think I could now. I'm certainly stronger than before but still not enough to kill that man because he killed my brother after all. I will take that crystal, trainer you have to let me go."
"I told you I wouldn't let you do that. If he finds out that my bounty will spread to all cities and reach the main police, which will restrict my movement, then he will be able to go for the crystal."
"Well if you won't let me go then I won't"
"Really?"
"No, Of course I will go and you can't stop me, but you're the one who took a crystal in the first place."
"You're right, but I managed to return alive."
"Well, my brother came back, so I can come back as well.
"Well if you say so Hayagi, then you can go. But first, you need to get much stronger."
"I don't care if you let me or not. I will go. I need to get a crystal to avenge my brother and kill that man. It's my decision and you can't stop me in my dreams and goals."
"I understand Hayagi, then feel free to go. Just be careful once you do, I don't want to lose both of you"
