Prologue (2)

"But what shall we do?" Vince asked worriedly while biting his thumb nail. "If they die, my conscience certainly won't let me live in peace."

"I know, but we don't know what will happen to us if we mess with them." I said pretending to be afraid.

"We'll probably be their toy for the rest of high school."

Vince looked me in the eyes and seemed to change a little from what I said. He was silent for a moment before saying: "Y-yeah you're right."

"Yosh, let's go-

I turned around and was about to leave when I thought I had finally convinced him, however Vince suddenly rushed them and threw a punch at the closet guy in front.

"I think it's better to be their toy than to get my conscience bothered all the time." He said as he put down his bag.

'The hell is this kid saying? Are you a secret masochist?'

I'm sorry for not mentioning this, but Vince is no average guy at all. He was tall and well built and moreover had very good fighting skills, so that the unguarded recipient of his blow was thrown several meters away.

"!!"

"W-what?!!"

"What just happened?"

Their eyes shifted to Vince and looked at him angrily. Seeing that their companion was hurt, they were not happy and were not going to overlook that one.

"Who are you bitch?"

"Why bother asking? Let's just kill him." An ugly mohawk dude said while rushing towards Vince.

He curled his fist and threw a punch aiming at Vince's face. However, it was easily blocked by Vince with his right palm.

Vince grabbed the mohawk dude tightly in his fist, and then applied a tremendous amount of force to his arm before throwing him against the wall.

Thud!

"Keuk!!"

The guy fell to the ground with blood coming out of his mouth.

"Don't talk nonsense. Do you think you are enough for me?" Vince said as he looked at the dude lying on the ground.

As Vince showed them incredible strength, some of the bullies panicked especially the young ladies. It was as if a bear was in front of them.

Well yeah, I was surprised too. Even though the guy sent was thin, I still didn't think he was that strong.

Vince raised his head and looked at them with glowing red eyes in anger, then slowly walked towards them.

"W-you, don't come here!!"

"Do you think you'll be safe if you do this to us?" Four of those weaklings said as they slowly retreated.

'Here we go again, the classic words of some third-rate villain. Act as though they're tough but the truth is, they only rely on their group.' Or so what I thought.

But the truth is, those guys that were retreating with a look of fear on their faces were actually just pretending to be scared to catch their enemy off guard.

And when Vince got close to them, a terrifying grin suddenly appeared on their faces before continuously striking him with all of their might.

They were like psychopaths as they didn't show any concern at hurting other. They kicked, punched, and batted their target's entire body with the intent of incapacitating him.

"Keke, Idiot! Do you think we're afraid of you?!"

"Playing superhero, huh?! Now take this Mr Hero."

"Kill this bitch!!"

Smack!

Whack!

Thud!

Thwack!

Bam!

Even though they made a surprise attack, Vince managed to put the guard in time thanks to his good reflex and blocked most of their attacks.

He was like that for about three minutes, just enduring the pain he was receiving while looking for the right chance to counter.

"Keke. Look at this bitch. He suddenly became quiet."

As the fight continued, I noticed that their attacks gradually weakened, maybe they thought that Vince was already incapable of fighting. But as far as I can see, they were barely hurting him.

'It's either Vince's good at guarding or the opponents' strikes are just weak as child.'

One of the thugs turned and looked at the student sitting behind, next to that student were two young ladies. I think that dude's name is Alex, he was their leader considering the aura he emanates.

I guessed that thug wanted to make an impression in front of Alex in that fight.

"Boss, how do you want me to kill this motherfu--

Keuk!

However, he doesn't know that his decision to turn around during an ongoing fight was a mistake. He didn't even manage to finish what he had to say when Vince suddenly grabbed him by his collar and pulled him.

Vince used that guy's face and blocked the incoming metal tube. Due to the speed of the tube and its hardness, the guy's teeth flew out of his mouth as his nose bled. He was knocked out immediately.

Now that one of their comrades fell, the tables turned and the bear had now the advantage.

Vince threw the unconscious body towards the three intending to break their formation. And when he had achieved his objective, he fearlessly charged at the remaining three and smashed their faces against each other.

That's pretty awesome. His opponents didn't even last 10 seconds.

Blood dripped from Vince's forehead while his clothes were tangled, he stood straight in the middle looking at the bullies who were busy doing what they were doing. And even though their five subordinates were in a mess, the others didn't even bother to fight or look.

The reason they didn't fight wasn't because they were scared, but they just didn't care as the men Vince beat up were just their shuttles and didn't consider one of them.

Very cruel people, indeed.

While they were treating Vince like the air, Alex spoke out of nowhere.

"So... What do you want kiddo?" He said in a disdainful voice.

"..." Vince was silent for a moment before pointing his finger at the three. "Let them go."

"Hmm..?" Alex looked where he was pointing and when he saw it, he then looked at Vince with menacing eyes.

"That's not going to happen." He said while shaking his head. "You don't know why they're here."

'That's right, say that to him.'

"Okay, then I'll release them by force."

When I heard what he said, my jaw dropped. All I can say at that time was, "This dude is really crazy."

Alex chuckled and called one of his men.

"Keke. George, it's your turn."

After saying those words, a bear-like man bigger than Vince walked over. He stopped in front of Vince and smiled.

Vince has already used a lot of his strength and knows that if he prolongs their fight, he will be at a disadvantage. Therefore, without warning he curled his hands and punched George in the chin.

It was such a powerful blow that the sound of bones colliding echoed throughout the alley. However, like a thick ball of steel, George did not budge.

"Is that all you've got?" George said with a smile on his face. Shortly after, he waved his hand and hit Vince in the face causing Vince to wobble for a moment.

"Vince are you okay?!" I shouted involuntarily out of worry. And because of that, they noticed me.

As Vince heard my question, he stomped his foot and regained composure. He gave me a thumbs up and said, "Don't worry, my mom's slap is a hundred times stronger."

"Okay!!"

Knowing that punching was useless, Vince changed his fighting strategy. Leaning forward, he charged and grabbed George's body and began to wrestle.

Vince is confident in his grip.

On the ground, the two wrestled for a minute. But in the end, Vince lost in a choke. He didn't know that George's specialty was wrestling.

When I saw my buddy lying face downward on the ground, I thought that it was time for us to leave. I looked at them while scratching the back of my head.

"Yo! Hehe." I greeted them with a smile before I walked towards Vince's unconscious body to carry when one of them suddenly stopped me.

They looked at me with a scary smile, they had no intention of giving Vince that easy.

"Uh-um... I'm going to get my friend." I said to the man with rat teeth who blocked me. His name is Carlo and the vice leader of their group... I guess.

"Is this guy nuts? After what your friend did to our comrades, you think that's that?!"

"Comrades my ass." I whispered to myself.

"T-then, do you want me to say please?"
