Indifference Becomes the Difference

Back at school, Jonathan seemed to tell Yina that he wouldn't help her, leaving her confused.

'What does he mean I need to take responsibility for my words? I thought he needed my help.' After thinking this, Yina ran towards him to try to clear up her confusion.

"What do you mean by what you said?"

Jonathan laughed mysteriously as he reached out to push the hair away from Yina's forehead.

"I don't want to tell you because I don't want you to live a life like mine. You'll find out when the time comes."

Those were his last words before entering the classroom. Once the door opened, Yina had no more chance to ask further.

"Maybe we could talk at your house when classes are over. Last time, you threw me out the window when your aunt arrived."

As he sat down and heard these words, Yina stared open-mouthed at Jonathan, who was exaggerating his words.

'Wait! Why am I so calm about this?'

"Heh, heh, Jon, the whole class is curious about what happened. Don't tell me, were you caught doing mischief in the emergency hall?" Alicia was sitting in a place that wasn't hers just to ask Jonathan about what had happened.

"Nothing; we were just questioned by an old man who thinks he's Agent 007."

"What? What questions? What old man?"

"I don't know if this is confidential or not... I don't think I should say."

Alicia cursed Jonathan after hearing that he didn't want to mention it.

'Don't tell me they were caught having sex in the emergency hall. My God, who would think that of the introverted Yina? She sure is a lucky bitch, but it doesn't matter. I'll steal her puppy sooner or later.'

When Yina heard Alicia's thoughts, she wanted to throw a book at the back of her neck.

'What the hell is she thinking?'

'I should try it at least once.' Then Alicia laughed to herself.

"Jon, the notes..." Yina, who had never taken the initiative to speak, handed him a notebook with the notes they had missed.

Jonathan nodded, took the notebook, and, after giving it a very superficial glance, handed it back to her. "Done, I just memorized it."

"Okay…"

But at that moment, Jonathan, who was sensing what was happening around him, felt a series of presences that caught his attention.

They were here—those people who were also special and lived in the shadows of their organization.

Many would wonder: How did Jonathan manage to catch their attention? Simple. As far as he knew, there were several organizations distributing a special drug that made people stronger but killed them after a while.

When he attacked that gang, they sent some warriors, all of whom were eliminated by Jonathan, so they sent stronger ones, and the process repeated until he decided to know more about them.

To know his enemies, he first needed to understand what he was up against. He could live his life quietly in this place, but the boredom of comfort was unbearable for Jonathan, who always sought ways to satisfy his abilities.

When one wakes up after death, there is much less to lose. One might think that after dying, one would fear death more in their second life, but this wasn't the case for him.

Jonathan was willing to go through many things in his life to find out if those same people who brought him here were present.

Haven't I mentioned it?

When that person with the horse mask broke his neck, he said something: [We'll see you in your second life].

The owners of time, life, and death could be them. Perhaps finding them would give more meaning to his boring life; Jonathan wouldn't lose anything by finding them.

If they were here, as long as he found the supernatural organizations, he might be able to find them.

And now, after letting Nick go alive with all those knife cuts, it's obvious he caught their attention.

The only reason Jonathan was holding back was that he hadn't grown enough to integrate martial arts skills with his not-so-large body.

He could only achieve perfection when he turned 18, and he was at least five years behind that. The wait was getting longer; he had improved his skills, but he still believed there were people stronger than him, and that was a hunch based solely on his consciousness.

"They're closer than I thought. I should stay out of trouble for now." Jonathan knew they would investigate him as he was the main suspect, but he still had time.
