2 Headon

Naj Ha was staring at her 6 year old son with pride. He was just 6 years old and was already creating 7 bangs of energy. He didn't even train for strength it was just because "It felt good". Her child had always baffled her with anything he did.

He told her that he could see Shinsu the moment he was born and apparently he remembered his life since he was born. That was a conversation that she wouldn't really want to relive. Telling your 4 year old child why you killed 6 men and women was not an easy feat.

She shook her head and called for her son.

"Byeol, time for dinner come inside!" a black haired boy turned around. His scarlet eyes locked in on the Gopchang his mother had crafted and drool dripped out of his mouth.

He dissapered from his spot in the forest and appeard in his house ready to eat every single bite of his dinner.

His mother's eyebrows started to twitch. She slapped his hand away from the food.

"Where are you manners young man" the boy pouted and turned to his mother.

"Mom, can I please taste just a nibble of your absolutely divine culinary gift to mankind" His moms annoyed gaze turned to an embarrassed blush.

"You may" he laughed and started consuming 4 plates of the Gopchang at super human speeds. His mother roller her eyes and ate her food with grace.

The mother son duo had been living on the very outskirts of the 83rd floor for 5 years. She was able to find a nice place outside of the reach of the Ha family and settle down with her child, she knew that he would be lonely but he was also very mature for his age.

He simply needed books and Shinsu and he was always entertained. She had felt bad when she couldn't get him any friends (you can't trust anyone) but he simply said it was fine as long as he had books, his mother and the "water energy" as had called Shinsu at the time.

She shook her head and smiled at the fond memory.

The duo were eating in peace when a bright white light shined at the edge of there small cabin.

Naj quickly jumped over the table, Byeol saw this and created 5 Bangs quickly while his mother held him with one hand and a purple needle in the other.

"My my my, what a delight reception" as soon as Naj hears this voice her tense shoulders relax. Feeling this Byeol followed his mothers actions and deactivated his Bangs.

A white rabbit figure with a staff was seen, Naj sighed and dropped her son onto the floor.

"Why are you here Headon?" The figure in question smiled once again showing a row of teeth.

"Why, I'm here to see the most confusing being in the tower is all" Naj narrowed her eyes at the 1st floors administrator but Byeol simply walked up to him. Much to her Chagrin

"The Shinsu also loves you Mr. Headon" The boy spoke fluently. Headon's smile never dropped from his face as he watched the Shinsu conform to whatever he and the boy desired.

He created a swan in his hand while Byeol created a figurine of his mother. Naj looked at the interaction with widend eyes.

"Sheesh kid, you sure are freaky" Byeol laughed at the rabbits comment and let the figurine dissapate.

Headon did the same and looked at Naj, who at the moment was freaking out. She really hoped that Headon was not going to take her son to climb the tower.

"Dont worry Miss Naj, your child will not be selected to climb this tower untill the age of 18" Naj's eyes widen at the statement.

"What the hell do you mean 18? People start climbing the tower in their hundreds, he will still be a little child" Headon looked at the raging mother with a sweat drop running down his long head.

Headons smile grows at the mothers attempt at prolonging her sons ascension.

"Miss Naj, its not me who decides that age but your child's subconscious" Naj looks at Byeol with confusion. Byeol glares at Headon than looks at his mother who was staring a hole through his head

"uhhh, he's lying?" Headon falls to the ground in exasperation while Naj's eyebrow twitches

"Funny, but back to what I was saying" Naj looks up at the rabbit her rage simmering down at his words.

"I was simply hear to see what the boy was like in real time" Byeol's eyes met Headons slits for a few seconds before the boy turned away.

"This will also help you Miss Naj, he already knows he's a liability while your running from the Ha family" Byeol was really starting to get nervous, this Headon guy somehow knew all of his super secret plans

Naj looked at her child with a complicated stare. She wanted to say something, but Headon beat her too it.

"He has surpassed my expectations, I can't wait to watch your story unfold, Axis candidate." before the mother and son duo could ask what these words meant, a flash of light was shown as the rabbit had dissapered.

Byeol shrugged and went back to his dinner, he was way to hungry to explain anything to his mother, he can think more about what the weird dude said later after food time.

Naj walked over to the dinner table and ate silently, the happy atmosphere in the cabin feeling alot more tense to the duo than before.

-------------------

Byeol's eyes twitched in annoyance, a guy in the market was laughing at him after he had told him his name. It really wasn't that bad of a name, this guy was kinda exaggerating.

"Hardy har har, can you just give me the damn stone" the man wiped away a tear and walked into the back. Byeol looked at the trees in the distance and sighed.

It had been 12 years and a few months since he had met Headon, tomorrow he shall start his adventure across the tower. He was feeling conflicted about the whole entire subject.

His mom ever since that day had always told him he could stay, he really wasn't a burden at all but he knew different, they've had to move 4 times all because of his carelessness, and she's had to carry him towards there destination like a sack of potatoes 3/4 of those times.

It was a accident when he went into town and was spotted with his hood down, now obviously this wouldn't be to bad since he was just a random guy, why would anyone care to report it?

Well somehow the family had found out about his talent and been hunting him for around 8 years. He and his mom were always confused on how they had figured it out but that besides the point. He knew he had to go, and this hurt his mother.

He sighed and turned back to the man, who had just come out of the stall with food and water in bags and handed it to the boy. Byeol nodded at the man and walked back to the woods to meet his mother.

He hummed a tune while slowly making his way to a small cabin. He was just about to get out of the forest when the Shinsu in his surroundings shifted.

His eyes narrowed and he quickly turned around. A purple hammer was inches away from his face. A blue sheild like object was blocking the hammer from quickly and silently knocking him out. Cracks spread along its exterior at a fast pace.

"No wonder they want you back in that family, an 18 year old child blocking my strike is not an easy feat" Byeol looked at the man infront of him and sucked in a breath.

He obviously was a ranker, not a high one but definitely a strong one. His purple skin and 4 meter stature added onto his opposing aura.

Byeol quickly activated Reverse flow control. The purple man's body stiffened as the boy used all of his strength to send the man crashing into a tree.

His Shinsu strengthening technique and the Ha family physique made 1 hell of a monster. He sprinted towards the cabin just to see another man get sent into the air.

Byeol quickly activated 15 Bangs and sent lighting quick attacks at the man while catching a sword that his mother had just thrown too him while running outside.

"This wasn't my fault this time, I swear" Byeol said in a childish whine, while pulling down his face mask.

Naj just smiled at her son's antics, trying to make everything better while there life was going through an upheaval.

"I've only seen 2 so far, so I think they're just mercenaries" all previous childish was gone as Byeol explained this to his mother while both of them bombarded the ranker in the sky with Shinsu.

Naj nodded at the deduction and both mom and son stopped sending attacks, as the ranked was unconscious.

Byeol turns to his right to see the purple man sprinting towards him. The boy created only 3 bangs this time but they started to grow in size untill they became orbs.

Naj looked on in shock, he usally had only used 2 during there spars.

"Byeol Control Type Shinsu Move: Thor's Courage" Giant lighting strikes thundered out of the spheres.

The man immediately sensed danger and put his hammer up in defense, The lighting slammed him right back into the forest he had just escaped from.

"Naj Control Type Shinsu Move: Uloe" Naj followed up making sure the ranker was down and than dissapered from view.

The mother and son duo proceeded to run off of the floor, the administrator allowing Byeol and his mother to do so for some reason.

They both landed on level 78 and started to build another cabin in the outer tower, far from everyone

After a couple of hours the duo was done and both sat down. Naj looked at her son with a sad gaze. Byeol turned to his mother and embraced her.

"I will be here as quick as I can mother, I love you"

"I love you too" Byeol felt the Shinsu around him warp and twist untill the warmth from his mother was no more.

He looked up too see Headon, and for some reason 2 others.

2 sets of scarlet eyes met each other.

"Fuck"

"Its you!"

[ So if anyone thinks he can already take Rankers, you are wrong my good sir. His mom is an almost high ranker, the other 2 rankers were low mercenaries that simply knew about the bounty placed on the duo and chased them, also the bounty Is only known to the higher levels. That is definitely not an ass pull that I have to do for future reasons, why would you even ask that?]
