TEN: Gotcha

"So he was on City-E huh? Should I visit him right now? Hmm. . .

Who cares, I want to see his surprised face when I suddenly showed up Infront of him." He starts giggling.

On the other hand, Rhena seeing Steve acting like that was scared. This was the first time she saw him acting like that.

'Will he do something on me?'

"Rhena, I will go outside, you can eat alone today as I might arrive late. . ." Steve goes to his closet and change into a new clothes. He haven't decided about his hero suit yet so a normal outdoor clothes would do it for now.

Rhena looked at him with confusion. Steve was just giggling like a maniac seconds ago now he will go outside with smile, like he just found something great. She couldn't help but ask,

"Where are you going?"

Touching the door, Steve turned around as he said, "Hunting." Then closed the it.

"Hunting? Sounds interesting." Rhena started controlling thousands of mosquito on her head to follow Steve. When she was revive yesterday, she later find out that the blood that Steve use to heal her was from Beast King.

Strange but expected change happens to her. Her mosquito manipulation was upgraded and he can now control mosquitos even on another City. . .

There's a limitation to it, like she can't share vision to a mosquito that very far away from her but it was still upgrade.

. . .

Outside, Steve could feel many little beings following him without his command. He knew instantly that it was Rhena but he decided to ignore them for now.

. . .

Steve finally arrive at City-E after 30 minutes journey, he maintain his speed as he didn't want to destroy anything outside the City-Z which well, full of already destroyed infrastructure.

"Looks lively alright!" He said as he arrive Infront of a ramen shop. Since after this mission, he will get a ton of money anyway, why don't he just spend his pitiful money on something good for once?

After eating at the restaurant, he also ordered one for Rhena so now he was holding a plastic bag while walking on a busy street.

"Hopefully, it won't get spilled when I fight someone. . .

Oh, I almost forgot about this."

Steve used his mosquito manipulation to control many mosquitos to carry the bag for him. It just took him a second to collect all the mosquitos close to him to obey him.

"That's what I call, a convenient ability."

He then took pit his phone and check if he was close to the location. And it seems that he was really close now.

"Hmm?" His ache his eye brows sensing something weird on the place.

Steve couldn't feel any strong wind but many things around him are moving, although slow, he knows there's something weird on them.

He ignores them for now and continued walking until he arrives at a dark alley.

"Haah, don't tell me, everytime I go on a dark alley, I will get attack by some randoms?"

And he was right, a bullet like air conditioner was shot onto his head, it was so fast that Steve feet was suck underground. Although it didn't even scratch him, it such a scary thought, how will someone without a body like will die if that thing hits them.

Unbothered, Steve removes his feet on the ground and starts walking again. Suddenly, many bullet like things hits him from this alley. It was non stop bombardment but after the smokes disappear, Steve was just standing there unscratched. But his clothes were ripped from many directions.

Veins popping out of his head when he looked at his pitiful old but great clothes that was now destroyed.

"Fucking hell! I will beat the shit out of you once I saw you!" He shouted, his voice echoes through the area.

. . .

Meanwhile, not far away from Steve, a man named Felix or the so called "Coder" was sweating non-stop.

"Why? Why don't you die!"

He planted many codes to things around his base as he was a coward, but it was successful, he already killed tens of heroes with it until today. . .

This handsome guy just showed up out of nowhere which alerts many of his divice. He originally thought that it was just a random because of the clothes he was wearing but he still search the guy face just in case.

Felix then finds out on a website that it was a new S-Rank hero, although a new one, he will never underestimate someone with that rank so he bombarded that guy with almost all his toys on that alley but he still won't die.

"Shit! How strong is this guy!"

"I'm out of here!"

Panicked, he started packing all the important stuff which only composed of laptop and some usb. He then decided to activate all the defensive measures he had around his house while escaping.

"Let's see if your still alive after this." He sounds tired.

BOOOOOM

A hole appeared on his roof and a blond man with tattered clothes show up.

"You bastard, come here."

Steve grabbed Felix head out of anger and throw him across the room. All the devices Felix hold hit the wall with him completely destroying them.

Felix cough a mouthful of blood but he was still alive. Although he was on that state, he still didn't forget to look at his attacker appearance and was completely scared when he saw his rage face.

"What the hell is wrong with you!

I was just minding my business here and you suddenly showed up and starts attacking me!"

Steve calms down and look directly into Felix eyes scaring him before he replies,

"Your code name is "Coder" right?"

"I-I don't know what your talking about?"

Signing, Steve picked up a small debri and shot it on the floor with his finger. It directly entered the ground, leaving a smooth dark circle to it.

"Lie to me once again and something will go to your head."

"Ah- yes, I think I'm that guy. Haha, I'm really stupid" Felix said while scratching his the back of his head.

"Great, now shake my hand." Steve extended his hand toward Felix.

"Uhh, for what?"

But he didn't receive any reply from Steve as he only stares at him, in the end, he replies,

"Ok." He took Steve hand and shook it.

After that handshake, Steve smiled brightly.

'Hehe, looks like I hit a jackpot.'
