Chapter 73.6: My Revenge… Part 6.
The Principal crossed his arms angrily while looking at the Delinquents fighting.
He even thought Ichiro and Lucas were delinquents because it wasn't the first time some rival gang tried to get revenge.
He has been the Principal of the College of Irio for 13 years, and there is a massive gang fight almost every year.
But the past few years have been the worst.
Kuro, the so-called boss of the delinquents, is ruthless, reckless, and doesn't respect the teachers.
He has also heard that Kuro will join the Underworld's Inner Circle, which will increase his status by a mile.
He saw Kuro's mocking face while looking at him; it enraged him, but he was still a Principal, and he can't get angry towards his student. ''I asked… WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?'' He shouted with an authoritative tone.
Kuro chuckled. ''Nothing, just friendly banter, right?'' He turned his head towards the masked man.
Ichiro didn't answer; instead he looked towards the Principal; he can clearly see the hate in his eyes, directed towards Kuro.
'Maybe… That would work.' Ichiro thought.
Ichiro straightened his back, and now he looked like a proper gentleman.
''Excuse me, are you the Principal of this fine establishment?'' Ichiro said with a British accent for some reason.
[…]
The System stayed quiet.
Everyone looked at him with strange looks.
Lucas facepalmed.
The Principal raised an eyebrow. 'What the f…'
He quickly shook his head and coughed slightly. ''Yes, I am.''
Ichiro nodded. ''I can tell that you have a rodent problem in your fine estamblishment.'' He said and pointed sneakily towards Kuro's figure.
But everyone clearly saw it.
''MOTHERFUCKER!'' Kuro's eyes went bloodshot instantly.
The Principal bit his lip, trying to hold his laughter.
Lucas sighed; he felt a headache coming.
''I can be your rodent exterminator,'' Ichiro said calmly.
The Principal thought deeply, but then he said. ''Those pests have been a trouble for some time… How much does it cost to get these rodents out of this estamblishment?''
Everyone looked at him with shock.
It was like they were actually talking about some unimportant rats and not about human beings.
Kuro gritted his teeth and started emitting killing intent.
Ichiro smirked. ''Free of charge!''
The Principal smiled and nodded. ''Alright, be quick. These pests have been quite loud for a quite long time, and I would be satisfied if you quickly get rid of these noises.'' He said and turned around to start walking back to the college's building.
Ichiro did a gentleman's bow.
Lucas' scratched the back of his head. ''How did that work?''
''My intelligence is too high for anyone to understand.'' Ichiro smugly said.
[…]
The System stayed quiet.
The System is incredibly intelligent, but even the System doesn't understand how that worked.
''Well then… To get rid of these rodents is our first job after all, and it is better not to mess it up.'' Ichiro narrowed his eyes and said.
Lucas nodded and faced the 4 Martial Leaders.
Ichiro was facing three very angry Peak Martial Leaders.
He put his hand on a spear-like stance, but he slightly modified it so that no one can find out his identity.
Instead of his hand being perfectly straight, it is very tilted.
''KILL HIM!'' Kuro roared angrily, and the two Peak Martial Leaders burst into motion.
They approached Ichiro from two different angles, but it didn't matter for him.
He calmly waited, lowered his stance slightly.
The Two Peak Martial Leaders punched with deadly intent.
Those punches are meant to kill a person!
Finally, Ichiro made his move…
The Two Peak Martial Leaders didn't see anything wrong, but when their punches finally reached Ichiro's figure, they noticed something was very wrong.
They widened their eyes and saw Ichiro suddenly disappearing.
Ichiro appeared behind both of them, and his spear-like hand was soaked in blood.
[Iron Lance - Slashless-Steel]
The Two Peak Martial Leaders stumbled a few more meters until they fell down on their knees.
Blood was dripping from their neck, they anxiously tried to stop the blood loss, but it was useless.
They started choking on their blood, and they looked around them with despair, but their heartbeat stopped.
Kuro looked with horror as his two friends died.
Ichiro still looked calm; it was like he had done this a thousand times.
And that scared Kuro even more.
The Martial Leaders fighting Lucas also saw the scene and were genuinely shocked.
Their distraction brought enough time for Lucas to defeat two of the 4 Martial Leaders!
The two Martial Leaders were shocked, but their battle intent has been long lost, and it is only a matter of time before Lucas finishes them off.
Lucas appeared behind the other one and chopped his neck, which knocked him out.
Only the Middle Martial Leader was left; his face was pale, and his body trembling.
Ichiro slowly started to approach Kuro, who was stumbling backward.
Ichiro slightly lowered his stance and started running towards Kuro.
''Aahh!'' Kuro cried out and punched.
But Ichiro already expected it and easily dodged it; he grabbed Kuro's arm and did a catapult throw.
Kuro landed on the ground on his back, he saw a bright blue sky above him, but then he saw a shadow of the grim reaper.
[Iron Lance]
Ichiro unleashed his spear-like attack and stabbed straight at Kuro's neck.
''UGHGHGHG!'' Kuro twitched painfully, he tried to get rid of Ichiro's hand, but it was impossible.
Light in his eyes started disappearing until it was finally gone, and his heartbeat stopped.
Ichiro removed his hand from Kuro's neck, looked towards Lucas, and saw him knocking out the final delinquent.
Ichiro killed 4 of the Delinquents, and Lucas knocked out 6 delinquents.
Lucas turned his head and was shocked seeing the dead delinquent and felt nauseous as well.
He is wondering how Ichiro can stay so calm.
Ichiro looked at his blood-soaked hands.
[Host, leave immediately! I can feel a Martial Captain approaching this place in a hurry!]
Ichiro stopped looking at his hands and turned his head towards Lucas, and saw him looking at him with worry.
''We should leave now,'' Ichiro said and started running.
Lucas nodded and ran behind Ichiro.
The students and other citizens didn't dare to stay on their way; they quickly walked out of their way.
They ran through the streets, and their black masks attracted a lot of attention.
But Ichiro didn't dare to remove the mask yet.
He and Lucas would be main suspects if people suddenly saw them running away from the college after the black-masked men left.
While running, Ichiro looked around to see a good escape path, but he barely knew the streets.
He hasn't gone out that much, except going to school.
''Let's go there!'' Lucas shouted and pointed towards the park.
Ichiro nodded and ran towards the park.
He saw that there weren't that many people there, which was perfect.
Ichiro and Lucas jumped over the fence, which led to the park.
He quickly took out the black masks.
Lucas did the same.
''Let's bury these,'' Ichiro said and started digging a hole with his own hands.
Lucas nodded and said. ''Good idea.'' he started digging the hole as well, and in only 10 seconds, they had a big enough hole.
They put their black masks on it and covered the hole with the dirt.
*Whew*
Ichiro took a deep breath and stood up; his pants were slightly dirtied by the dirt.
Lucas was the same, and his outfit was also slightly dirtied because of the fight.
''I-I will never again follow your ideas,'' Lucas said, slightly panting.
Ichiro chuckled. ''Let's go.''
Lucas nodded.
He and Ichiro walked through the parks while trying not to let anyone notice them.
They were still wearing the same outfit as before and they didn't want to risk it.
They exited the park and started calmly walking towards their homes.
''This will be where we separate, see you in school.'' Lucas said, he waved his hand and started walking towards his home, he still had few questions for Ichiro, but it can wait.
Ichiro waved his hand and took a deep breath.
He started dragging his legs towards his home, the blood on his hands feels like it weights a ton.
[…Host, you don't need to be afraid of killing anymore. This is world of the fittest and killing isn't out of ordinary.]
Ichiro didn't answer.
He walked in silence, until he finally saw a frontyard of his home.
''… Systemm, am I the villain of the prophecy? I feel like a killing isn't very hero-like.'' Ichiro asked a question which has been stuck on his mind since the park.
[Host, what do you think hero is?]
''Someone who saves everyone without caring about himself.''
[And what is a villain]
''Selfish individual who gets pleasure of hurting someone.''
[Which one are you?]
''That is the thing… I don't know.'' Ichiro sadly said and walked towards his home.
He opened the door and lazily put his shoes on the shoerack.
The house was very quiet, no one is home yet, except him.
He made his way over to the upstairs and entered his room.
The room was very dark, like his thoughts.
He pressed the light switch and the room instantly brightened up.
[HOST!]
He heard theSystem'ss anxious roar.
But Ichiro also felt it.
He moved his body perfectly towards the left and dodged a small blade.
He turned his head and saw a black figure holding a knife.
''And who the hell are you?'' Ichiro narrowed his eyes, his heart started beating rapidly, he feels that the black figure was an opponent he can't defeat.
