Chapter 22: Number 2
The stands:
"..."
"He knocked down a boar beast of rank C, unconscious!" one of the spectators was shocked.
"Wow... how many surprises does this young man have, he almost managed to defeat the boar." Rafos stood from his place and prepared to leave the arena.
"Ugggggggggh... how... how... he didn’t die... he should have died..." Claude was biting his nails until blood began to appear.
"A young man who possesses three abilities, how terrifying he is..." said Dark with worry on her face.
"What is this young man’s background?" asked the right-hand deputy, Dran.
Kid replied, "In truth I don’t know exactly where he ca from. But there was a recomndation that he be brought here, despite his frail build."
"You’re saying there was soone who forced him to be a slave here?" he was surprised.
"Do you want to investigate his background precisely?" Kid looked at Deputy Dran.
He stood up from his seat, "Yes, I want every detail about him, because I want him in my faction."
"Now I apologize, I must ta the dog so he becos obedient."
His mana awakened, forming a yellow mana field around him.
"As you wish, Right-hand Deputy Dran," Kid answered him.
After hearing Kid’s reply, the right-hand deputy vanished from his place in yellow light, to appear inside the arena.

Arthur:
Phew... yes I succeeded... I succeeded... you deserved it you filthy boar... I survived death... thank you, ability...
I raised my hand and started waving it towards the crowd expecting a loud applause. But all I found was total silence.
Damn it, what will happen to now?
While I was thinking, I heard clapping in the place of the fallen boar.
ClapClapClap
"Truly impressive, you managed to defeat the boar. The one that requires a group of strong adventurers to take down." A man in armor looked at .
When I saw him, I didn’t think much. I imdiately got into a defensive stance.
"Ahh... I apologize for my rudeness... I started talking to you without even introducing myself."
He stood and bowed slightly, placing his hand on his chest, "I am the Right-hand Deputy Dran, or known as Number 2. May I have the honor of knowing who you are?"
Number 2? Wow, what a ss I am in. I adjusted my stance and said, "What’s the point of knowing my na here? Anyway I will die, there is no point in knowing the na of a dead man."
Hearing my words, the Right-hand Deputy fiddled with the boar’s fur, "Who said I want to kill you? How about we make a deal? It will benefit and you."
"Ohh, and what is it?" I asked about this deal that made him spare my life.
"Join the rcenary group."
"Ohh... that is interesting." I began scratching my chin as if I was in deep thought. But I had no intention of joining these filthy rcenaries even if it ant my death.
"Sorry... your offer is rejected. I will never join your filthy rcenaries as long as I live." I refused.
"So it is then, but I will not give up just because you refused. Do you know what you lack? Yes, it is strength, pure strength." No trace of anger appeared on his face from my rejection.
"Let show you pure strength." Mana gathered around him, especially in his right hand that was aid at the boar.
"Ability [Light Body] – Unparalleled Light Fist." His right hand shot forward at an incredible speed carrying with it a mighty force that pierced the boar’s back in a dazzling golden light.
From the force of the strike, the boar slid towards the wall and left a hole in its back with its intestines showing and blood filling the place where it died.
"What do you think? Isn’t this dazzling? How wonderful is strength." Right-hand Deputy Dran pointed his finger at , "You are dazzling yourself, so I will ta you and make you obedient to ."
Damn it, he really deserves the title Number 2 in the group. With this power he could have split in half. I don’t know if I would ever heal from such an injury. Cold sweat trickled down my back.
"Ability [Light Body] – Speed of Light."
With these words he appeared before . "You are still weak compared to in terms of speed."
Before I could even think of escaping, he grabbed my neck.
"Ability [Light Body] – Light Pressure." His fist went down to the ground, smashing my face into the ground.
This act cracked the earth and raised dust.
"Ability [Light Body] – Chains of Light." From the Right-hand Deputy Dran’s yellow hand, chains appeared that bound tightly, "This way you will go to prison. You will have two options and no third. Either join or rot forever in prison."

Dran:
I took out a handkerchief and began wiping the dust and blood from my beloved armor.
At that mont the cries and applause rose.
"As always, how wonderful you are, Right-hand Deputy Dran." one spectator.
"Amazing, he managed to stop the beastly young man. As expected from the Right-hand Deputy." another spectator.
"Right-hand Deputy... let bear your child... for sure it will be as amazing as you." one of the fans scread in madness.
I returned to my seat, "Let soone take him to prison, and provide him good food. My work here is done."

Arthur:
Prison? How kind of you. That’s exactly what I want, ti. I lack strength? Fine, let show you who will lack strength when we et again.
