Chapter 36: Race for the land 2
-What are you doing here, I thought Heros was on the other side of the map.
The Blue Demon members and Alexander looked at the boy in surprise.
-Well, if it isn’t my little friends from Blue Demon, how are you guys doing, how about relaxing?
The boy for his part responded by keeping his face relaxed, although in front of him there are several enemies, this one didn’t show a hint of nerves.
(The leader of Heros? Come to think of it I couldn’t feel when he stood behind me before, maybe it was because he was so strong, I should confirm it)

(But what the hell are those stats? I updated the system stats and they were more realistic, but this… it’s absurd!)
Alexander who was even more shocked than his enemies, decides to check the new stats given by the system, he had already done it the day of the update, but he didn’t pay much attention to it.

Alexander read over and over the new stats as he looked at the leader of Heros, whose name was Gerard.
-It looks like I’m going to have to struggle a bit, can you hold my little friend for me? -Gerard handed his new pet to Alexander who nervously held it.
-Do you think you can beat us just because you’re a leader? If we take your head to our boss we can move up the ranks.
The Blue Demon members prepare to attack Gerard, who was starting to warm up by jumping up and down.
(It would be best not to get involved in the fight or just be a hindrance, plus I can see his fighting style) -Alexander chooses to take some distance while watching the confrontation in the distance.
-Get the guy. -All the members of Blue Demon attack Gerad, who doesn’t seem nervous at all.
-Wow, they are so slow. -Several kicks without any technique, but with great speed, were thrown at the enemies, who could not avoid them.
-Come on, I just hit them several times. -Even with his charismatic smile, he rushes against the Blue Demon members giving him several blows just as fast.
(One, two, three, ten, twenty…) -Alexander tried to count the number of blows thrown by the boy, but it was in vain, he could not keep up with him.
-Whew, now that’s what I call a good workout.
Gerard returned while wiping his sweat, behind him were all the members of Blue Demon unconsciously.
-Good job taking care of Lyron. -Gerard happily took back his pet which he named Lyron.
(What the fuck? He just defeated all those Blue Demon members and he’s barely breaking a sweat?)
Alexander couldn’t utter a single word, the goal of this mission was to win RockFlex’s territory, but how was he supposed to beat someone like him.
-Hey, I think we should keep moving. The young red-haired man was preparing to go on his way and asked Alexander to accompany him.
-Yes. -Having no desire to refuse the offer, Alexander decided to accompany him.
***
-This is horrible, I had to take the path with the most complications.
On the other side of the map, a sweaty Sophia Bromck was complaining about her bad luck.
-This is the fourth confrontation of the day.
Sophia looked back, meeting the gaze of rival gang members, which she had defeated.
(Although a complete pain in the ass, this route was the best for me, after all I am second in command).
Showing a proud face, Sophia opts to enter a building to rest.
(I’d better hydrate and eat something to get back to the battlefield.)
After settling in, she takes an energy drink out of her backpack along with a fruit salad.
-I think we can rest here.
-Yes, this looks like a good place.
Just after Sophia started to recover, two members of a rival gang came in, and they moved to the opposite side, so they didn’t see Sophia, who was behind a wall.
(Shit, this sucks…) -Sophia showed an angry face, just when she was about to rest, two rats appeared.
(The best thing to do is to listen if they have something interesting to say and then finish them) -Without getting nervous, Sophia opens her ears wide to all new information she could get.
-Hey, did you hear the new news about our gang?
-Which one? Remember my phone was destroyed.
-No silly, apparently someone from the White Wolves and the Black Foxes are sharing information with each other.
(Wow, this is very interesting, I have valuable information, as a second in command should be) -Sophia continued to listen to the conversation, showing pride in herself.
-Well that’s not so important, what is really relevant is….
-According to the leaked information, the leader of the White Wolves is part of one of the great families.
-…
(What the fuck…)
Sophia, who almost choked on her own food, was shocked to hear the news, someone from the big families was a real criminal.
-Really? What family is he part of?
(Is he a Bromck? No, he can’t be, we Bromcks are not like that) -Sophia was trying not to lose her temper at this moment, if it were the case that her family was involved in this, her life would change instantly.
-Unfortunately, that information hasn’t been leaked yet, so no one knows.
-Fuck, that’s what I call leaving us holding our tongues, I don’t like it at all.
-Hey guys.
Sophia, who looked angrier than usual, decides to come out of hiding to confront the guys.
-Next time you’re going to talk shit, make sure you have all the information.
-Who the hell are you?
-What fucking gang are you from? I had never seen such a ridiculous sign before.
The boys were getting up to be defensive at once, Sophia’s face only conveyed danger.
-My gang doesn’t matter now, after all they’ll just be corpses.
Without giving him time to react, Sophia approaches the boys with a boxing stance.
-Wow, she’s fast, be careful.
-Warning his partner, the boy tries to dodge Sophia, who gives him a barrage of punches to the face and falls to the ground.
-Fucking bitch. -The angry boy tried to attack Sophia, but was only hit by Sophia in the stomach.
-Next time don’t pay attention to rumors, you bastards.
Still angry, Sophia notices that her phone vibrates due to a new message.
{Alex55: Hey guys, hope you’re doing well, I’m currently halfway to the mansion}
{Alex55: what about you guys?}
(Sorry Alexander but…)
{SophiaB: Nothing here, looks like I’m in for a boring ride}
(I can’t tell you what I’ve just found out, not until I’m sure it’s not my family.)
Sophia, who had just made a selfish decision, picked up her backpack and prepared to continue on her way.
***
{Alex55: Don’t worry, we will make it little by little}
Alexander who was on the stairs of a building resting, answers Sophia’s message.
-Well, well, who are you talking to?
Gerard, who was lying on the floor playing with his new pet, asked Alexander because he saw him concentrating on his phone.
-Ah, I’m talking to my team on our group chat, doesn’t Heros have one?
-Yes we have one, but my phone was in my jacket, so it got lost. -Gerard answered in an embarrassed way while continuing to play with the dog.
-We’ve been together for several hours and I still don’t know your name, what’s your name? The young red-headed boy asked Alexander in a very enthusiastic way.
(Oh right, I forgot I never introduced myself) -Alexander, who did know the boy’s name thanks to the system, overlooked the idea of introducing himself.
-My name is Alexander, Alexander Del Ryo, what is yours?
Although Alexander already knew the boy’s name, he chose to ask so it wouldn’t look strange.
-Your name is boring, my name is Gerard Moreau.
The young red-haired boy scoffed at Alexander as he replied.
-I see your name sounds French.
-Yes, my parents were French. -The young man answered without basilarity and went back to playing with his pet.
(Were they? Have they died already?) -Alexander decided not to investigate the subject and went back to concentrate on his team.
(These motherfuckers, only Sophia answered).
Alexander was starting to worry about his team, so he decides to use his ability.
(This skill only work if they are fighting, at least I will know if they are in trouble or not).
[You have used the team skill: Team Observation].
[Only one window is available]
(Only one? That means there’s only one fighting, surely it’s Marcus making a fuss?)
Alexander with a smile was ready to see a fight from Marcus but….
(Richard and Alan)
In front of his eyes he was watching as Alan and Richard, both of whom were bloodied, were fighting against an opponent Alexander already knew.
(Takeda?)
