6 Months

I slowly opened my eyes as I woke up from the meditation. Thinking a about what happened it felt surreal. It's been six months since I started fighting the strong guys in the clan. I have fought and defeated everyone and won except the head.

Thinking about all those fights were truly exciting. I did not win every fight. I lost some but it was less than 10 fights. And those to whom I lost I challenged them again and won. I was never defeated by the same person twice, so they called me "Justin the conqueror". It was an embarrassing nick name and the first time I heard it made me cringe. But in time I got used to it.

Some of the fighters challenged me after their defeat. I did accept everyone. I don't know what kind of surprise they would give me, so I accepted. Some didn't improve anything but some gave me some surprise. Some studied how I fight and developed countermeasure for me but I overcame everything.

Not gonna lie, I sorta became a fighting maniac after all this time. Every time I see someone strong I want to fight them with my full capacity. This is not the only carnage occurred to me.

I put on some serious muscles and grew some height. I'm now 190 cm in height and have a broad shoulders and physique like Thor in 'the ragnarok' movie.

I just finished my meditation successfully. I finished forming my mental defence according to the technique. No one at my powerlevel or below can enter my mind, they can't even feel presence of my mind.

During the constant fighting with opponents I learned and did a lot of things.

Most important was, as I was constantly fighting against opponents I created a martial arts just for me to fight against the opponents who use weapons. It's not perfected yet but more varieties of opponents I fight I can improve the martial arts to the greater level.

I learnt how to use hammer, spear, saber, and axe. These were the weapons I was interested in. I became much better in wielding those twin swords.

But the problem is the weapon kinda becoming useless as I get stronger. I know where I can get a better weapon but I don't think he would hand it over to me in a silver platter.

I had lot of fun other than fighting like a madman. I made learned how to fly an aircraft and learned the basic of flying space crafts. I went to colosseum to enjoy some fights. I made wine that I liked and enjoyed all the entertainment offered by the outer city with Komiko and Arora.

We became very close in the mean time. I went to party with them. We even went outside of the city to take a look, but there was nothing worth to mention except for the assassination attempt by some of the clan people who I defeated earlier. It didn't end well for them.

There was an interesting news about 2 months ago. It seems someone found a huge green monster that was roaming around in the outskirts of the city.

Some of the scavengers went to kill it but never came back. Then one of the powerful scavenger , scavenger 142 went and captured the beast. The beast was then brought to the Grandmaster and he became his current champion after defeating the previous champion by stomping him into paste.

I was excited at the news of Hulk being here. If this is MCU then the current timeline would be Age of ultron. If not I don't know what is happening on earth. Even if it's not MCU someone is going to come from Earth or there will be a way for me to go there.

I watched one of the hulk's fight, damn they did him dirty in the MCU. He was strong. Stronger than anyone I have ever seen in this world. According to my estimation current hulk is about 7-B nearing 7 -A in base strength. But that's only if he is not in rage. If he went on rage mode, I don't know.

He must have a durability of atleast tier 6 or above. Currently I'm at tier 8-B. My strength for example, I can destroy a 10 story building with 3 punch in full strength. I can punch through 2metre thick steel pillar like nothing. As I got stronger, I discovered that I can improve myself even during a fight.

I stretched myself as I had been sitting in the same position for past three days. I went to the gym to get some exercise.

Now I could life more than 50 tons of weight with ease. I had no other equipments to test my limits. I got ready and went to the bar. I don't have to work much because I have hired an assistant for myself to worn in the winery.

I saw that komiko and Arora were absent and remembered that today was their vacation. So I went to their home after I informed them about my arrival through comms.

I moved towards an alley and brought out my extension bag and took out two bottles of improved "tipsy" that I brewed initially. I left one barrel to age as it is and opened the other and bottled it in glass bottles. I left most of them to age but used some to special occasions.

I slowly walked towards the apartment building that the girls live in. I took the elevator and reached their floor.

As soon as I reached in front of their door, the door opened revealing Komiko in an apron. She looked beautiful. I leaned forward with my hands on the side and hugged her and kissed her cheek and she hugged back and kissed me in the right cheek.

"You look beautiful as always Komiko." I complimented her. To which,

"Wow, thank you Justin, what happened? Do you miss me after not seeing me in three days?" She replied in a joking manner. I'm kinda became immune to all her teasing, so now it sounds like a joke to me.

"Yeah, I miss you so much. What are you doing in your apron? Cooking something?" As I said that we moved inside the house and komiko took the bottles out of my hands.

"Yeah, we started cooking some of the recipes you gave as it was quiet good. Today we are making ribs and purple fries and the mashed one."

I'm not a good cook but I made my own food during my college days. So I tried cooking and it was not bad. I asked the girls to try and they liked it too, so I had to share some recipes that would work in this planet.

I found a domestic animal that looked like cow but twice the size of an average one in earth. I made stake for them. I found a vegetable with rich starch that tasted very similar to potato and made fries and mashed potato.

"It's good. I was also hungry after not eating anything. Where is Arora?"

"She is in the kitchen making the fries. It's the only thing she can make without destroying the food." As she said that I laughed a bit.

Arora sucked at cooking. Initially she was so bad that even making an egg would turn into a disaster. After months of training komiko gave her, now she an make fries, though she still can't properly cook eggs.

I went to the kitchen and saw Arora cooking fries with all her concentration with her back facing me. I just chuckled and slowly approaching her. Usually Arora would have noticed since she was so into the fries she didn't.

I stood near her back and slowly whispered,

"Hello, Arora."

"Waaa." As she shouted, Arora jumped and looked towards me while holding a tong .

"Hahaha. I'm sorry please don't hurt me with the tong."

She looked at her hand and hid the tong in embarrassment. She looked at me and scowled,

"What the hell Justin. Don't play with me when I'm cooking. Did you forget what happened in your room?" As she said that I remembered a nightmare like incident. I soon distracted myself from remembering this.

"Sorry, just wanted to scare you a little. You looked so cute when you were totally concentrated on making fries." I said while laughing. I neared her and hugged her a bit and kissed her cheek. She did the same.

(A little flash back)

Looking at her like this I remembered something that happened between us. One of the night I spent with them in their apartment, on that night komiko was extremely drunk. Only Me and Arora were left to clean up the mess she made.

Once the cleaning was done, we sat next to each other and watched sky while drinking some wine. She asked me at the time,

"Hey Justin, do you still miss Kiera?" She said in a low whisper.

"First of all, her name was Tiera and yes I still do miss her. Why did you ask about this all of a sudden?" I asked her curiously. I knew Arora was not the one to ask personal questions, it's always komiko that does.

"Just curious, you know." She said. I didn't know what's on her mind so I said, "hey it's fine. You can ask me anything you want, I'll be as truthful as possible." As I said that I put an arm around her shoulder and brought her closer to mine.

She looked at me and averted her eyes. She then breathed out and looked at me with determination and sad.

"Justin, I'm sorry. I hid something important from you." As she said that, she distanced herself from me. I looked at her sad face and said,

"What? Are you secretly a man?"

I said, only to see her shocked at what I said. I laughed at her reaction. She then hit me in my shoulder with all her strength but it didn't hurt me much.

"Ouch. Ok sorry. It's fine if you don't want to tell. But if you want to share something I would love to hear it."

Hearing me say this, she looked at me shocked,

"Do you remember the day when you got so drunk you forgot all that happened?" She asked. I said "yeah, what about it?". She took a deep breath and said "I lied about that incident. It was actually me who kissed you first. When I saw the look in your eyes at that moment, I couldn't control myself and kissed you. Sorry."

I looked at her and said with a outrageous tone,

"Are you for real? You are a shameless one aren't you. What about the 2 favours you cashed out. First is fine it was just helping but the second, you made me eat your cookie that you baked . You know I had to cry myself to sleep that day after putting that thing in my mouth."

She was initially shocked hearing me scold her but soon her face turned dubious as I continued to speak. I wasn't mad at her, I was glad that she did that at that time, if not our friendship wouldn't have developed to this stage.

"Are you serious? Are you not mad that I lied to you?" She asked with a little shake in her voice. I shook my head and said. "I'm not mad at you. Not even a little bit. Happy?"

As I was looking at her she just jumped at me and kissed me in my lips. Time for me to get shocked. I didn't reciprocate her kiss but she soon looked at me and said,

"I know you don't like me like that and you don't want to ruin our friendship. Please don't think about anything else, just this one night." She said with hazy eyes.

I looked at her pleading tone and her eyes, I threw caution to the wind and I kissed her fiercely. The night got hot and steamy as komiko was passed out on the sofa, we took it to the room.

The next morning, we woke up in each other's arms. I looked at her and just as I was about to speak, she kissed my lips and said.

"Don't say anything, this was just a one night passion. I know it was selfish of me to ask you of this, take it as my third favour that I cashed out."

She said while looking at me. I know I'm not in the right place to start a relationship but I also know I have to try but couldn't bring myself to it.

I didn't say anything to her. I didn't know what to say, so I just kissed her lips and just laid beside her and enjoyed what time we had in the bed.

(End of the flash back)

After that we both didn't bring up anything about the incident. We just kept quiet about it.

"Let me make the fries. You go and get ready let's have something fast. I'm hungry."
