Chapter 121: Avery.
Ichiro sat down on his bed while wearing only a bathrobe.
He grabbed his phone and checked the time.
[7.24 A.M]
He went to WorldlyTalk and pressed [NightButterfly]
He had a small smile while seeing their conversation, but then he pressed [Facetalk]
*Ring*
Ichiro started waiting for the phone call to be connected, and then shortly afterward, it connected.
*Clank*
A beautiful black-haired girl appeared on the screen.
Ichiro saw her slightly wet hair, and her skin looked smoother than ever before.
''Azura.'' Ichiro smiled.
''H-He…'' Azura was about to reply, but then saw Ichiro wearing only a bathrobe which showed slightly his upper body.
''W-Wha?'' She started stuttering while her face went redder.
Ichiro lied down on the bed, ''I took a shower a few minutes back.''
''D-Dummy! Why didn't you wear clothes before calling!'' Azura said with mock anger.
Ichiro chuckled, ''It's so comfy…''
''Anyway, how are you doing?'' Ichiro asked.
Azura smiled, ''Fine… But for some reason, my mom and dad wanted to spend time with me.''
Ichiro wryly smiled, ''They saw us kissing.''
''W-What!'' Azura shouted while her whole face went red.
*Knock* *Knock*
Ichiro heard a knocking coming from the door.
He stood up and went towards the door while holding the phone.
*Clank*
He opened the door and saw Giron standing with Michael and the rest.
''Sup?'' Ichiro said while Azura was curiously listening.
''We are going to get a breakfast, want to join?'' Giron asked.
Ichiro shook his head and showed the phone screen, which showed a beautiful black-haired girl.
''I am having a call with my lovely girlfriend.''
Azura blushed to see Giron and other Kings staring at her.
Giron nodded, ''Understandable, there is a cafeteria in the hotel as well, so if you are feeling hungry, go there.''
Ichiro nodded and closed the door.
''W-Why did you show my face to them?!'' Azura shouted while hiding her face out of embarrassment.
''To make Michael jealous.'' Ichiro snickered.
''S-So childish,'' Azura replied with a slight giggle.
Ichiro sat down on his bed, ''That's why you love me~.''
''D-Dummy,'' Azura replied with a pout, but then the door to her room was opened.
Alena came with Abyss and Aether.
''Azura, we will leave soon.'' Alena replied but then saw Azura's screen, which showed a handsome black-haired boy.
''You are having a call with Ichiro?'' Alena crossed her arms.
Azura was embarrassed.
Abyss clicked his tongue, ''Even when he is gone, he is still stealing my precious daughter.''
Aether looked with dead-looking eyes at Abyss.
Azura pursed her lips and looked at the screen, ''I-I have to go.''
Ichiro nodded, ''See you later.''
*Clank*
The phone call got disconnected.
Ichiro stood up, went to his bag, and grabbed his school fighting outfit.
Tomorrow is the start of the tournament, but he still has to wear the fighting outfit.
He exited his room and entered the elevator shortly afterward.
The elevator doors closed and started descending.
*Ding*
The elevator doors opened, and Ichiro exited it.
A people with fighting outfits was exiting the hotel and walking towards the cafeteria.
Ichiro went to the cafeteria, and first his fighting outfit gathered everyone's attention, but then his face did.
They all have done research on High School of Fighting's fighters.
They recognized him.
Ichiro took a lunch box from the desk and sat on the nearby table, which was already half filled with students from other schools.
One of them angrily turned his gaze towards Ichiro and shouted, ''Brat, get the fuck out of this table!''
Ichiro gazed at him and chuckled.
''WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT?!'' The young man screeched.
''Shut up, you are noisy,'' Ichiro replied and opened the lunch box.
''YOU FUCKER!'' The young man roared and stood up in anger.
''Enough.'' But then a calm sound came from the table.
A middle-aged man shook his head and looked at Ichiro, ''People from Coldland are as arrogant as people say.''
''What makes you think that?'' Ichiro asked with curiosity.
''Hmph.'' The middle-aged man snorted, ''You laughed at him because you think he is nothing in your eyes, correct?''
Ichiro smiled and shook his head, ''I laughed at him because he looked like a clown.''
''FUCKER!'' The young man roared with a red face.
Ichiro sighed, ''So noisy…''
The middle-aged man stood up.
Everyone else at the table also stood up and followed behind the middle-aged man.
Once the middle-aged man was next to Ichiro, he whispered, ''Be careful little sh*t. It would be unfortunate if you got injured before the tournament.''
Ichiro only had a small smile.
*SWISH*
Suddenly a swift fist appeared and was about to hit Ichiro's cheek, but then the fist stopped, barely touching Ichiro's skin.
The fist belonged to the young man.
He scoffed, ''You better hope that I am not your opponent because I will break your legs and smash your pretty face.''
After those words, the young man left.
Ichiro smiled and thought, 'They actually think they managed to scare me… How amusing.'
He grabbed his lunch box and stood.
He left the cafeteria and went straight towards his room.
Once he entered his room, he sat down at the table and started eating his lunch box.
He grabbed his phone and looked at the black-haired girl on it.
'Don't lose…' Words echoed in his ears.
But then… His eyes went white.
He started seeing a vision.
In the vision. He was fighting against a handsome blond-haired young man who had a gentle smile on his face.
But Ichiro saw cruelty in his eyes.
In that vision, the blond-haired young man was beating Ichiro ruthlessly.
Ichiro's every move was useless; he got always counter-attacked.
The blond-haired young man had a mocking smile on his face and kept hitting Ichiro's handsome face, even disfiguring him.
Ichiro's handsome face was long gone, and only a broken young man had replaced it.
Then the vision changed and saw a beautiful black-haired girl holding hands with the blond-haired man.
'Azura…' Ichiro thought, then the vision got broken into million pieces.
He opened his eyes with a slam, and his forehead was drenched in sweat.
''W-What was that…''
[That was the vision if you lose]
''S-System?!'' Ichiro was glad to finally hear the system's voice first time in a few months, ''Y-You mean Azura will leave me if I lose?''
He felt incredibly hurt.
[Don't blame her. She has no other choice. Nightside family has Abyss, but that family is very small, and there are families stronger than them. That blond-haired young man is from one of the stronger families]
Ichiro gritted his teeth, ''T-They are going to force her?''
[Yes, if you lose… Abyss doesn't have enough power to reject them. He is getting weaker as well]
Ichiro gritted his teeth while remembering the mocking smile on the blond-haired young man's face.
''What is his name?'' Ichiro asked hatefully.
[Avery Moonstar]
''Avery…'' Ichiro muttered hatefully.
