From the outside I can see that many of the windows in this building have been destroyed and replaced with wooden planks, while some other windows are dull and have a lot of dust, weirdly enough the windows on the third floor look new, the doors are wide open and the floor is dirty, but unlike its appearance, this building has many residents, this three-story building is used by many different low-level delinquents clans as their headquarters.
walked in, the four of us were greeted by a lot of delinquents sitting in the hallway, laughing and talking loudly, seeing us enter they all fell silent and looked at us suspiciously.
"No, no, just continue, we have some business to do for a moment" I smiled sweetly, with Gorden behind me, followed by Gako who was shaking and Kita who was frowning, we walked inside.
trying to get past the group of thugs in the hallway one of them stopped me with his foot "Oi! What business do you have here huh?!"
He tried to put on a scary face to intimidate me, but I could feel that he was not that strong, however, I can't be careless here, I don't know which clan he's from but they're not our target, maintaining my smile, I spoke calmly "nothing, we only have business with the other clan, so please excuse us and let us pass"
"huh? So that's how it is, hm?" seeing Gordon behind me, the punk took a step back and hugged the girl next to him, then he spoke bitterly "Okay, you can pass losers"
"Thank you" I said and tried to get past the line of delinquents in the hallway, until something unexpected happened "Pweh!" felt something hit my hair, I touched it only to find mucus in my hair, don't tell me...
"What! How dare you spit at Ren!" Gordon shouted behind me.
"Ahh? Eh? Big boy, do you really think I'm afraid of you! You're just a loser in the senior group aren't you?! We're the night bats! And no one insults us here! You guys should crawl on the floor if you want to pass!"
"Damn you!!"
"Gahaha! You stuupiiddd!!!"
looking behind, Gordon was being held back by five people, while Gako and Kita were shaking at their feet "Ren!" Gordon shouted for help, but the thugs around us just laughed at him.
"Oi?! Are you scared? want to run away huh?"
The punk who spat at me brought his face closer and tried to make fun of me, ah, it's over, even though I've tried to be patient, feeling the rising anger in my heart, this reminds me of when I was little.
"Ren! Are you making a fuss with me?!" one of the children in the village shouted at me with an angry expression because I accidentally stepped on his foot.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to! Ahaha" I laughed innocently because I really didn't mean to.
"shut up! you fool!" the boy strangled me against the wall and hit me in the face "Don't you dare do anything to me again okay!"
feeling the pain on my face, I could only sit there grimacing in pain.
I thought that was the end of it, but the next day he told everyone in the class that I had challenged him to a fight and lost badly, I was very upset at that time, but I held it in. until one day he spat at me when I was passing by and he was laughing with his friends, even though I was chatting with Sayaka at the time.
Sayaka immediately confronted the boy, and asked me who had just stood in silence, she worried about me and chose to bring me away from them while they laughed behind us "Ren? Are you okay? Let's get out of here"
After that, Sayaka kept asking me if I was afraid of them, but what I felt was not fear, but shame, and anger, uncontrolled anger, there I realized that my pride was my trigger.
I am a very patient person, but when I felt really insulted, everything was red, I still remember how the child's legs were bent and the feeling of a cold iron rod in my hands.
From there, instead of leaving me alone, many bad kids in the neighborhoods tried to challenge me, but in the end, I somehow always wins makes me famous as the biggest delinquent in the area, luckily, at the time Sayaka had moved to the city and the people on the orphanage somehow never knew about this, so I want to keep it a secret forever, its a shame these punks managed to tear my mask a little.
Putting another 20 points into strength, my strength increased to a new level and I can't help but smile inside.
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
"Gahahaha! He's frozen in fear!” the thugs around me burst into laughter.
"Ren! Run! Gah!" Gordon spoke to me before he was kicked in the stomach.
"Kyahahaha! These losers are indeed-" Before the punk who spat at me could finish speaking, I grabbed his dirty mouth in my hands.
"Mmm! MMM!!" he desperately tried to pry my arm from his jaw, but I tightened my arm until I could feel something creak.
"L-Let Kevin go!" The brown-haired woman, who I assumed was his girlfriend, shouted at me, while the other delinquents could only stand there in shock, so I obeyed her and threw him towards his girlfriend, even throwing someone with one hand felt very light now.
"KYAA?!" the two of them collided and fell backward, an unpleasant sound came out from their collision.
Looking around me the remaining delinquents recovered from their shock and tried to attack "D-Don't make a fool of us!"
One of the delinquents swung his iron baseball bat, but I caught it and easily snatched it away. Looking ahead, Gordon, Gako and Kita were stunned to see me easily defeating them, so I smiled cheerfully at them while holding an iron baseball bat in my hand "Sorry guys, but it looks like we'll get more than one room"
Looking around, all the delinquents were sweating profusely, unfortunately, I could still feel the slippery taste of the disgusting saliva on my hand, making me angrier than before, to the point that I gritted my teeth and accidantely voiced my mind "I hope none of you die"
The thugs took a step back, but it was too late.....
After 3 minutes of screaming and suffering, the four of us stood among the collapsed and battered delinquents, I wanted to praise myself for being so skilled at not letting any of them escape.
feeling refreshed in my heart, I wiped the sweat from my forehead, ah this was hard work, looked at the three, their shoulders jumped under my gaze "I'm a little tired, but it's no problem, let's finish this"
looking back, the delinquents from other clans were peeking out of their rooms in fear, did I overdid it? My clothes were stained with blood... on the positive side all the delinquents were still alive on the floor and moaning in pain.
"R-Ren, who exactly are you?" Gordon widened his eyes, while Gako and Kita took cover behind him. Hm? it was a strange question, thinking about it in my head, I answered "I'm just someone who wants to change my life and you are the same, so follow me and I will promise you great things"
Is this a good answer?
"Great things..." muttering the words under his lips, Gordon fell into deep thought, but the other two seemed to have taken their decision.
"I-I will follow you! I want to become strong!" Gako spoke and stepped forward, while Kita slowly followed Gako's steps and opened her mouth "I-I don't want anything, but I want to live in peace..."
"Wow! That's a really great dream! Very beautiful! I also have the same dream!" I happily shook Kita's hand, and she looked at me confused, looked at Gordon who still lowered his head in thought, I ask him "How about you Gordon, you are the one who brought me here"
hearing my words Gordon raised his head
"I understand, you can do it, I will follow you" Gordon smiled bravely. alright, this is going well, now one more thing needs to be done, looking towards the end of the hall, I can see several heads peeking out from a room, they must be Red Arowana.
The target is in sight, dragging an iron stick on the floor, I start walking towards them and they can be seen panicking and slamming the door to hide, doing the same thing, the delinquents from the other rooms are hiding too, huh? aren't they all too weak?
"good job, I'm impressed" heard the sound of someone clapping in the air, making us look around, until I saw someone coming down the stairs, wearing a black suit, black hair and black glasses, someone who looked good at mathematics had come, but... I could feel he was strong, his body was well-built and trained and the air around him felt different, he was unmistakably an adventurer, making me narrow my eyes.
Beside him was a female student with purple hair, carrying a book in one hand, she was also wearing a black suit and they both wore blue ribbon pins on their left chests, seeing me raise my baseball bat towards them the man smiled "No need to worry, we just want to do the procedure"
"procedure?" but they didn't answer, and suddenly I could feel a lot of people from above, a group of people in the same black suits walking down the stairs.
"Ren, what should we do?" Gordon was talking next to me while raising his fist, but I told him to lower his fist with my hand "Just look after Gako and Kita"
I don't feel any hostility from them, but just in case...

---------------------
six sense is an upgrade skill from detection and can help you to sense danger, hostility and someone's presence, it can also roughly measure how strong a person is depending on the skill level, but if someone has hiding or disguise skills above six sense, six sense can be deceived.
I initially didn't improve six sense because on the first floor of the Canaria dungeon there were no monsters that were good at hiding, but six sense is a very useful skill so there's no harm in improving it, putting 14 points into six sense, my six sense skill increased to 5.
Suddenly I felt my vision widen, like blindfolds were removed from my eyes, I could feel Gordon, Gako and Kita beside me, even their movements, while the aura of the man and woman in front of me strengthened, the purple-haired girl was also quite strong, was she hiding it at the start? But still, this mob of people coming down the stairs had no hostility towards us, so I just let them pass, Gordon stood alert, while Gako and Kita screamed a little.
those people quickly checked on the delinquents, and some even used healing magic and potions to treat them, so they were friends of the delinquents?
"This is appropriate, don't worry, the bill will be borne by them themselves, so dear sir, could you have a drink in my office for a moment to discuss our business?" the man pushed up his glasses with his index finger and smiled at me.
