End of the road

-What a crazy story. Do you even know what you did?

-I planned it perfectly.

-That's not it. You pretty much won the war we have been fighting for centuries.

-It wasn't that hard, you could have done the same.

-Perhaps I could have killed a few dozen vampires, but I would eventually tire and die. Here, we put a lot of emphasis on passing down one's energy to the next generation. Otherwise, we could simply gather all of our fighters and go to war. But what would be the costs?

-You cleaned that place of its high strength warriors and revealed a lot of its secrets. To this act, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will not talk about those stupid things like "it was dangerous" and whatnot. I believe that a warrior can make his own choices, although you are a child... But let's leave this for later. I need to deliver this news to the higher-ups, so that we may organize an assault and end this war!

He looked at the girl.

-As for her… I don't know what to think of it, let's talk about it when I come back.

Suddenly we found ourselves in another place.

I hate not being able to see stands...

-After our talk a few months ago, I learned to tolerate this power of mine, and in the process, it evolved into something more. I was thinking of showing it to you at a later date, but I can't hold myself anymore, HOHO!

-See you later kid. He then disappeared into the shadows.

And there he goes.

-Sigh. Here, follow me. Let's go to the library, I will give you some books so that you can get used to some Human society concepts.

…

Later that day, the ancient city halls tolled. Indicating the coming of war. The warrior donned their armor and marched toward the vampire base.

The end result was pretty obvious, without most of their higher combat force, the vampires couldn't resist them. Before night fell, the vampires were wiped out.

The hardest part of the operation was dealing with the zombified beasts, but the agreed course of action was to leave them in the underground caverns and seal them off.

As for the humans… Some could be saved, while others… Where ethically dispatched.

Most of the saved ones were children who weren't considered "fat" enough to be eaten. The final result of the council was to train these kids into Ripple masters so that they would utilize their anger toward the vampires as fuel for their training.

Many treasures were uncovered in the city including ancient objects.

But the question became: How would the wealth be distributed?

Some said that the rewards should be given to the one who infiltrated and killed the vampires, but most didn't want to believe a kid managed to do all of this alone. They said that this victory was everyone's and not just some kid.

For that, I Just said to Huang that as long as they allow the Speedwagon corporation to lead the excavation and researching of the ruins and artifacts, they can stay with the treasures.

They obviously didn't agree. Even when Huang said the same, most still didn't want to share.

So I went into their homes and broke their legs. What are they going to do? Stop me?

No one said anything after that, but the atmosphere was relatively tense.

I didn't know what was in the head of these clans, but I could pretty much imagine what was going on.

But I don't care. Tomorrow I will leave this place.

I decided to go to the secret cave of Wallson with Speedwagon when he comes back.

After this I will go to Japan and then… probably Russia, there is also a clan hidden in the sand of Egypt. After those… I will probably train myself while looking for the origin energy of this world

At the same time in the entrance of the temple far away from the city…

/VROOM!/

A big jeep stopped in front of a very large staircase.

A man jumped out of the car and lifted his hat so that he could see the temple gates above the stairs.

-I am back! Are you alright kid? He talked to himself.

…

In a very simple room, two people were discussing something.

The room only had a single table with two pillows. There were some teacups filled with fragrant tea placed on the table.

-... Those guys! Don't they have a single spec of respect for their savior? Said Huang

-Calm down Master. Most of them are on our side now, only those greedy fools are left now, let them do what they wish, I don't need this meager wealth anyway.

-So be it them. Let's not talk about this anymore.

-You will be leaving today right?

-Yes.

-Time passes so quickly… Who knew… You actually mastered all of what I have to teach, including the information hidden deep in the library. They might not agree with it, but you are already above a normal Master, at least better than me... That's depressing in a sense.

-I would like to give you something… Yet, I don't have anything useful for you.

-It's fine, I don't need anything anyway. And even so, you already gave me a lot.

-... That's it!

He got up and left running… 5 seconds later he came back with a strange wooden box.

/THUMP!/

-Few… I am too old for these things.

He picked a key and opened the ornamented box.

Inside there was a… series of objects.

A strange Dodecahedron, a Jar filled with Holes, and a Bronze head of someone.

-These are ancient artifacts from a very long time ago. There isn't much in them apart from how they came into our possession.

-A few years after the war started, a strange man visited our city, which at the time was still in construction. The man was riddled with old injuries, some of which don't even make sense when you read the records. He was carrying this box in his back.

-When our ancestors saw him, they didn't welcome him at first, a decision that would leave them in anguish for many months afterward.

-The man was left in a house for several days until the first city lord of that time came in contact with him. Unfortunately, the man had already died in bed peacefully.

-The records say he had a smile on his face as if he had completed his final task.

-But what was incredible was when the doctor touched his cold body. A Hamon wave washed his body, it was so powerful that the old doctor became 30 years younger. Eventually, after putting everything together, the first city lord determined that the man was a foreign master, most likely from Rome, and inside the box was the secret for his powerful wave.

-They studied it for decades but after the death of the city lord, the study was suspended, being picked up by several masters along the centuries. But no one ever found out what this was.

-I am now passing this to you in the hopes you can find out what this is.

-… I won't disappoint you.

But what could this be, for a wave to do what was written in the text, it would have to be dozens of times stronger than Huang's wave. And that's impossible. I am a special case, but he was human… I am still far away from such a wave, but to think it was possible to achieve it in the past...

I will uncover its secrets.

-Have you decided to bring the girl with you?

-I will leave her with Robert, he has better equipment and tools.

-You know kid, sometimes I think you are not even a child.

-...

…

The morning of the next day

I was waiting for Robert to arrive, and as expected, he arrived right on time.

-OIIII! John! Said Robert

-Nice seeing you again, Speedwagon!
