After Hayato left the Adventurers Guild he walked to the kingdom gates, reading the quest paper again on the way. The young women who crossed his way couldn't help to stop to look at him, some even had their mouths slightly opened, but Hayato never paid any attention to them even when the women called him to make him turn to see them but that behavior didn't make the women angry they seem to be even more charmed about that and even some bit her lower lips with desire

Hayato who was ignoring all that reads the paper with a very serious face ' The instructions say that I need to ask the gate knights about the mission ' After a few minutes of walking on the streets he arrived at the gate, there he saw a few Knights guarding the entrance ' They should be the ones I need to ask about the quest '

Hayato approaches the gate knights, some of them were chatting with each other and the rest of them are focusing their attention on the outside of the kingdom watching the path and the near forest with care

Hayato decides to speak with the knights that were chatting with each other he approached them and says " Hello, I want to ask you something "

The knights turn to see Hayato and one of them looked surprised " Sir Hayato? what are you doing here? " The knight spoke with a surprised voice

Hayato sees him with doubt after seeing his eyes he grins slightly " Oh, you are the knight that was in charge of protecting me "

The knight smiles and nods, then he bows a little with his right hand on his chest and his left hand on his back to say " My name is Wade, Wade Blackwood, I'm in charge of protecting the entrance for today, so for what are you here today? " Wade says with a curious tone

" I want more information about the mission of the bandit group extermination, the solicitude says that I need to ask you about it to gather further information " Hayato gives the mission request to Wade and he starts to read it

" Hmm… well you have to go inside of the forest, just follow the sun, their hideout must be near a rock formation hidden in the forest that's what survivors said, there shouldn't be many monsters along the way there but beware, you never know what lurks in that forest " Wade said with a serious face and he handed back the solicitude to Hayato

" Ok, thank you " Hayato leaves the entrance with Wade watching him with a serious expression

Hayato entered the forest, and after he walked for a couple of kilometers, he began to think that he was lost

Hayato stopped walking and he sees from left to right with a frowning expression ' Where the f*ck are they, I have been searching for them as Wade said for hours but I didn't see even the rock formation or something like that, f*ck it! I will use this ' Hayato makes some hand seals and then

" Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Shadow Clone Jutsu) " *PUFF**PUFF**PUFF* 10 clones appeared around Hayato, then he says with a serious expression " Disperse, when someone of you found the bandits dispel the Jutsu, that way the others will know the location, now go! "

"Alright! " All the clones said at the same time to then run in different directions but Hayato went running in the same direction as before passing more trees and rivers, but he never crossed any monsters until in front of him he encountered a huge strange wolf. Hayato observed the wolf with surprise, the wolf was busy searching for something on the ground not paying any attention to Hayato

' That wolf looks impressive, but I don't think that that is a wolf ' Thought Hayato watching the wolf. The wolf has spiky black hair, clear blue eyes that shine with the light of the sun, and very long teeth that come out of his mouth, even if its mouth is closed, the wolf-like monster looks majestic and aggressive

The wolf's ears shiver for a second and it turned to see Hayato the next moment, The wolf faces Hayato and it begins to growl at him, showing him his long sharp teeth covered with saliva, his hair stands a little bit more and his eyes shine with dark blue light making its appearance look even more menacing than before

" Hmm? " Hayato frowns and raises his guard taking out his katana and activating his Sharingan ' It seems to be very aggressive, I haven't done anything to provoke him, or he thinks that I'm food? ' Hayato grins slightly and yells to the wolf " You want to eat me?! then, come! "

The wolf began to run at a great speed toward Hayato and when the wolf was a few meters in front of Hayato, the wolf makes a forward jump with its mouth wide open ready to bite Hayato's head

Hayato jumps and makes the same move that Minato did against Tobi, he tries to stab the wolf's back with his katana but *CLANK* the katana bounces in the wolf's back without even cutting a strand of his spiky hair. Hayato lands behind the wolf and he jumps back a little then the wolf turns to see him again growling once again aggressively

Hayato sees the wolf with a very serious expression and thinks ' The wolf has its skin like steel, but I'm still going to cut him ' Hayato activates his Demon Mark and " Chidori " He covers his katana with his Chidori and then some memories come to Hayato's mind making him open his eyes slightly by the surprise ' Hmm? they have found the bandits, but I need to concentrate on this wolf '

The wolf howls and does something that takes Hayato by surprise, and he couldn't help to think ' That's amazing! '

The wolf begins to cover his body with black and blue lightning, sparks begin to appear from his spiky hair, his eyes shine more creating the illusion that they were made of lightning and then he begins his attack again " *WOOF!* " The wolf barks and sends a huge lightning bolt from its mouth toward Hayato

Hayato jumps to his left and *BOOM* the lightning bolt makes some trees explode and others were sent flying by the huge explosion, Hayato makes a wry smile seeing the explosion that happened behind him ' That was dangerous, he can do this kind of damage, I have to take this very seriously ' Hayato does hand seals " Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Shadow Clone Jutsu) " *PUFF* 2 clones appeared in each side of Hayato

Hayato stays still but the clones jump at both sides of the wolf " Get ready!, Chidori Senbon! " Hayato aims at the eyes of the wolf and hundreds of lightning needles went to his eyes

*TING**TING* the lightning needles bounce before they reach the wolf's eyes thanks to the lightning he is emitting but they seem to make the wolf very uncomfortable ' That isn't going to hurt him? well at least it will cover his vision for a few seconds '

Hayato increases the number of lightning needles giving the clones the time to finish their hand seals without the wolf noticing it " Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu! ( Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu )x2 '' Two massive fire spheres attack the wolf on both sides *BOOM* a huge fire covers the area where the wolf was.

When the fire and smoke dissipate the wolf is still there growling at Hayato but the lightning that covers him looks weaker than before ' It seems that this wolf is more powerful than I think, I just need to wait some time until my clones kill the bandits '

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

A few minutes early one of the clones was running as he turns left and right, suddenly he slows his speed ' The number of rocks here had increased, the rock formation where they hide must be around this place '

The clone explored the place until he heard someone talking then he jumped to the top of a nearby tree and saw a couple of men walking under the tree " Did you hear something? " Said one of the men, they wear leather armor and white shirt each of them has weapons both swords

" No I didn't, let's go I'm hungry " Said the other men, and they started to walk to a dense rocky place

The clone on the tree frowns as he saw them leave ' Those must be some of the bandits they could guide me to their camp ' then he begins to follow them jumping from the tree and using the rocks as cover neither them seems to have noticed his presence yet

The clone follows them until they arrived at a flat place between the rocks, where the bandits have their camp base they have some tents and various bandits were patrolling around them. Near there was a cave that seems to have more bandits inside

The clone hides behind a rock and smiles ' I found their encampment, is time to disappear ' *PUFF* the clone disappears in a cloud, and in a few minutes, 9 clones arrived where he disappeared

The clones crouched and one whispered " Where is the original? "

Another one shakes his head and says " He is not here yet, let's start without him, the bandits seem to be quite weak, so we don't have to worry "

The same clone points in front and behind him saying " let's divide, use all the power you had to kill them, the bandit leader must be a little bit of a threat so let's kill him together " The clones activate their Sharingan, and Demon Marks then they jumped in different directions surrounding the bandits camp base

The clones take position between the rocks they can see each other but the bandits were unable to see them then one of the clones raised his left hand and begins to count with it ' 3,2,1... ' and then four clones began their attack charging towards the patrolling bandits that were the first to die they were killed with swifts movements of their Katanas unable to react or yell

[ 'Bing!, You receive 2000 System Points' ] the system points accumulated when the four bandits died at the same time by the attack of the first 4 clones but that quick attack didn't pass unnoticed

One ugly bandit full of scars saw them and yelled as loud as he could " We are under attack!! call the boss!! " The other bandits were alert but it was already late " Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu! ( Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu )x5 '' the other 5 clones that haven't attacked at the start jumped and burned the tents from the air killing the bandits that were still inside them

[ 'Bing!, You receive 500 System Points' ]

...

....

The tents burned with high intensity " Aaaahhhh!!! " and yells of pain echoed throughout the place

The bandits that were outside reacted seeing the clones in the air with angered expressions but then " Chidori Senbon x4 " hundreds of thousands of lightning needless filled the place pricing through every bandit that crossed their way, the attack was made by the clones that attacked first

[ 'Bing!, You receive 500 System Points' ]

...

....

As the bandits were dying like ants being stamped they keep gathering System Points a roar of anger came inside the came " WHO THE F*CK DARES TO ATTACK MY BROTHERS!!!! "

A tall bulky man with a scar on his face comes running out of the cave, he had a bald head and a great sword in his right hand

One clone jumps in front of the bulky man with his guard raised then he says in a cold voice " We did, what are you going to do? "

[ 'Bing!, You receive 2000 System Points' ]

" Now you don't have any brothers left " Another clone appeared on the left side of the bulky man the same as the other clone he has his guard up. The bulky man looks surprised when more of them appeared around him, he was surrounded

The bulky man sees them with an angry and cautious expression so he raised his big sword and says " Bastards, who the hell are you? "

" We are adventurers, your head has a price so we came for it " All the clones said at the same time the bulky man looks very angry and said " Oh, really? " then he raises his big sword above his head yelling " Great Speed Boost! Slayer Slash! " And jumps towards the clone in front of him *BOOM* the big sword destroys the ground by the impact hitting the clone and raising dust and pebbles

" I'm not going to die without killing one or two of you " The bulky man made a cold grin

" .... " The clone who was on the ground just smiles a little and *PUFF* he disappears leaving a small cloud of smoke in his place

" What?!.... Ha! " The bulky man is surprised and jumps upward evading one of the clones that were trying to stab him on the side with his katana but in mid-air, the other 6 clones stab him in every part of his body, and finally, he falls on the ground still alive but at the verge of death

" Da..damn...it " One of the clones approaches him " Don't take this personally " and he chops his head off

[ 'Bing! You receive 1000 System Points' ]

" Well, they were the same as the other bandits, now let's take this bald's head and take it to the original then... " The bodies of all the clones shivered with surprise and all of them turn around to see in the same direction with surprised expressions " What's with that wolf, is so powerful "

" Don't worry, with the points we made for the original he can beat him, now let's retrieve the head " Said a clone with a serious face

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

Memories arrived in an instant in Hayato's mind but when he was about to speak with Syt the wolf restarts his attack

The wolf's hair raised pointing in every direction and generating more lightning, then when his eyes blinked with a dark blue light *WOOF* he barked, and thousands of lightning needles came out from his body flying in all directions, the two clones that were near the wolf vanished with the attack

Hayato evades almost every needle that the wolf sent thanks to his Sharingan, but some of them made him superficial cuts on his face, arms, and legs but his clothes were still intact

As Hayato was evading the needles the wolf opens his mouth wide and a sphere of lightning began to form increasing its size rapidly

Hayato saw it and thought with a severe expression ' Syt, quick! I buy Meliodas's Full Counter! ' Hayato's body shines for a second

[ '-20,000 System Points' ]

[ 'Ting! congratulations, you unlocked: Full Counter, Meliodas version' ]

[ 'You still have: 11,400 System Points' ]

The lightning sphere in the wolf's mouth stops increasing its size and then it was shot by the wolf toward Hayato destroying everything in his path

Hayato raised his Katana and with a serious face, he swings it towards the lightning sphere as he yells " Full Counter!! " He hits the sphere and the sphere turns back to where it came from, the wolf didn't have time to react, and *BOOM!!* the big explosion caused by the sphere covers the wolf completely and sent debris flying everywhere so Hayato raised his arms to cover his face

After that, Hayato realized that something wasn't good ' Why didn't I receive any System Points? It's he...! " Hayato runs to the crater he made with the Full Counter and the wolf was still there, weak but alive

The wolf raised its head seeing Hayato with a hostile expression, then a voice comes from it despite it didn't move its mouth " Who the hell are you... human... " he said leaving Hayato speechless
