" Mmm... " Vengeance Hunter stands in front of the train's door.

<Message >

<Enter the Next Location?>

Vengeance Hunter just silently looked at door, despite his urge to go in, he began to look around, looking around the mess he made as he eliminates those in his way.

" You sure you want to follow me, woman? " Vengeance Hunter asks, asking the woman he saved from the white masked men that abducts her, seeing her slowly show herself after following him secretly behind the passenger seats. 

" Are you a hero, Black-Armoured sir...? " The woman asks while shivering.

" You think I'm here to save you? " Vengeance Hunter replied to her, seeing her afraid expression.

" The train is going to depart in minutes. "

" I advise you to leave this place with your ragged clothes, go as far from this station, even better. "

" Do not ever, go through this Station Route, ever again. Leave the 13th Urban District even. "

" Do it tomorrow before night falls, leave! " Vengeance Hunter says as he slashes the passenger door in his left, opening it as he could see Black Merchant is waiting him outside as he already offers his hand, looking at him and the woman.

" He's an ally, he'll take you out. "

" Just like the others of the 13th Urban District, he'll teleport you. " Vengeance Hunter tells as the System tells him that they only had eight more minutes.

As he was given the message, the saved woman jumps out from the train and runs towards the Merchant immediately grabbing his hand by instinct while also looking back at the one who saved her.

" He's on Quest here, lady. Don't disturb him. "

" You were lucky he comes in the right time, otherwise, you'll end up like the rest who dares to take the midnight transport to the Capital for work's sake. "

" Consider this your miraculous day! " Black Merchant tells her as their hands are tied, while also both of their surroundings' began to shift.

" For I also happened to have [Teleportation] Ability, including many more in my arsenal thanks to years of experience. "

" See ya, Vengeance Hunter, good luck! " Black Merchant leaves with the saved woman as the clock still ticks as the Bullet Train began to prepare its move.

Vengeance Hunter approached the door again, this time, he opened it, entering the Next Section of the train.

<Section Third Entered>

*Vengeance Hunter looks around*

As he went in, he sees the train section is empty, devoid of any life, any enemies despite him still maintaining his sharp senses.

He looks around, but sees the place smoother than it should've been, the section of the train suddenly becomes classier. So classy in fact that made Vengeance Hunter decide to look around and stops in the section's window.

Seeing himself in his old face, with his hair covering his eyes. No masks, no hoods, no armours and capes.

" Huh? " Vengeance Hunter suddenly snaps as his chest is suddenly patted by someone.

" Looks like you're still new to the train, son. " The person tells him.

" Dad? " Young Vengeance Hunter asks, seeing his father in front of his eyes.

"(Wait, what?)"

"(What is this, System!?)"

"(System???)" Vengeance Hunter calls the System again.

"(Sys-te-...)" Vengeance Hunter begin to forget it for some reason as his dad who happened to work as the Bullet Train Security, who also happened to buy young Vengeance Hunter a ticket since the dad wants him to always use it for his transport.

" With this, we will need no private cars, son. " The dad tells him.

" The Car Taxes in Hellios is rising up. "

" I guess that happens after the Heroes HQ decide to fund more of the Bullet Train's development. "

" Because of this, many wants to ride the train instead of their own vehicles due to the Kingdom gradually charge it's owner with taxes. "

" Thus, after that, we have no choice but to embrace this change. " Vengeance Hunter's dad says as Vengeance Hunter nods while the two decide to go to the next section, where both of them walks throughout the train, witnessing the view of Hellios as the train goes to the Sky Rails, the Rails so that heights so tall as it made the train experience looked like that of a roller coaster.

Young Vengeance Hunter enjoys the view with his father, who works as a Ticket Inspector, back then, he was grateful that his low-income father's work will actually help him in some way.

" With this, I will have no worries on getting into the academy on time. "

" I hope they didn't reroll your workstation, dad. "

" Well, no worries son. "

" It seems I'm going to stay around at this station for a while... "

" Thank goodness. " He tells his dad that as the two shows a slight smile, but then.

* Thud. *

A hard voice can be heard from the door near them, the door that connects them with the Business Section, the front section of the Train for the Bullet Train VIPs who pay many for membership, giving them a different place than those who bought it on the Station's Counter.

" Huh!? " Young Vengeance Hunter begin to panic as he hears the hard voice of a hard knock, something happened in the Business Section that immediately made him remember.

"(Wait this moment...?)" Young Vengeance Hunter says as his eyes began to pour tears.

"Dad! " He raised his hands, trying to stop his father from entering the place which he did due to his job.

As the door closed, another hard knock could be heard, a knock which made Young Vengeance Hunter cried as he knew what happened.

" This moment... " Vengeance Hunter tries to approach the door, attempting to open it as he braves himself, urging himself to see what's in the next door.
