Chapter 60 - Dirty Mouth Ichiro.

(A/N: 100k words in total for this novel! Insane!)

The plane finally landed at the airport of Irio.

Ichiro and the rest left the plane, received their bags and luggage.

They went through the security gate and entered a busy terminal.

''See you in school,'' Lucas said to everyone.

The club advisor patted his shoulder and said. ''Good work out there, see you in the club tomorrow.''

Lucas nodded and left shortly afterward.

Ichiro decided to follow Lucas.

''I have missed Irio,'' Lucas told while looking at the Irio in distance.

''Me too.'' Ichiro agreed, he looked outside of the window while walking, and he saw a city not far from them.

The sky was getting darker, that's why the lights looked like they were glowing in Irio, especially in the slightly taller buildings.

They exited the airport, and something they never expected happened.

Dozens of reporters were swarming outside the airport.

Ichiro looked surprised, and he was about to go around them... But then the reporters saw Ichiro's and Lucas' figure.

''THEY ARE HERE!'' One of them yelled and instantly they surrounded both of them like hawks.

''What the...'' Lucas was shocked and quite intimidated.

Ichiro only sighed and stood calmly.

''Ichiro, can I have your interview!'' A middle-aged man yelled anxiously while holding a mic.

''Go ahead.'' Ichiro nodded.

''How did it feel to fight against Slych?!''

''It was hard.''

''What are your comments about the referees' intention of crippling you?!''

''Fuck that guy.''

''Uh...'' The Reporter instantly went silent.

Ichiro only blinked blankly. ''Is the interview done?''

Ichiro was also infamous in his past life, for giving very controversial answers in the interviews...

And now the so-called Dirty Mouth Ichiro made his comeback!

He saw that the reporter didn't answer.

He shrugged his shoulders and started going around the reporters.

Leaving Lucas alone suffer in their hands.

Ichiro looked around him, trying to find his parents.

Shortly afterward, he noticed two familiar figures, who were anxiously looking around them, trying to find someone.

Ichiro with a slight smile approached them.

The two figures noticed a young man approaching, their faces lit up, and approached him

''Hey, mom, dad,'' Ichiro said and was instantly trapped in Azumi's hug.

''Welcome back!'' Azumi said happily.

Ichiro was taller than Azumi, but the hug almost broke his spine.

''Ugh, the pain!'' Ichiro groaned in pain and had to suffer a few moments longer until his mother finally let him go.

''Welcome back, son.'' Eiji said and patted the back of Ichiro.

''Thanks.'' Ichiro smiled and entered the backseat of the car.

The car left the airport and started making its way through the highway towards the city of Irio.

While Eiji was driving the car, Azumi decided to ask about Ramu.

''Did you get new friends?'' Azumi asked with curiosity.

Ichiro stopped looking at the window, he turned his head towards his mother and said. ''Yes, few.''

''That's wonderful, who are they?''

''Slych Raften, Mars and a girl called Tania,'' Ichiro said nonchalantly.

''W-What did you say?!'' Eiji screamed and almost drove the car off the road.

''Slych Raften, Mars and Tania,'' Ichiro repeated.

''A-Ah... I see... that's a wonderful son.'' Azumi replied with slight awkwardness.

'Not sure how he befriended with that god-like existence, but at least that Mars and Tania seem ordinary.' Azumi thought.

''Who are Mars and Tania? Never saw them in the tournament.'' Eiji decided to ask.

''Mars is Gensa's Military Enforcement Department's Director.''

''And Tania was fighting for Viorange, but I guess you two missed her matches.''

Eiji and Azumi blinked blankly. ''W-What did you say?''

''Mars is Gensa's Military Enforcement Department's Director,'' Ichiro repeated, and then he continued with more shocking news. ''He is also Martial King, pretty powerful fellow.''

Azumi turned her head towards Ichiro and thought. 'Is he drunk? There is no way he befriended someone with that status!'

''T-That's... wonderful son,'' Eiji muttered while thinking. 'I shouldn't have dropped him to the ground when he was baby... It's my fault that he is dumb, there is no way he befriended someone like him! Maybe he didn't even befriend Slych... Because in their match, it looked like they were trying to kill each other!'

'And did he even befriend a girl? Maybe he hallucinated?' Azumi thought while feeling sorry for his son.

Eiji and Azumi decided to stay silent for the rest of the car trip.

While Ichiro kept looking at the window with a blank expression, no one knew what he is thinking right now.

'I think Tania is my friend... I doubt she hates me for calling her a thot... Right?' Ichiro thought. 'I made fun of her height too, but that was just friendly banter, I make fun of Lucas all the time, but he doesn't hate it... I think.'

Ichiro shrugged and enjoyed the smooth car ride.

They exited the highway and entered the streets of Irio.

Everywhere Ichiro looked, he saw many old people working in their shops while enjoying their life.

He also saw many a lot of students chatting with each other while smiling.

Ichiro saw a lot of poverty in Ramu, most of it was because the Underworld influence in Ramu was high and the Higher-Ups in Ramu were rotten to the core.

But Irio doesn't have the same problem.

Irio is somewhat peaceful, even though there is Underworld influence.

And Ichiro already saw the dark side of Irio, the police's corruption... The Underworld... Irkum...

Ichiro is aware that the Police Commissioner is Martial Commander rank.

Ichiro has been thinking that is the Police Commissioner aware of corruption or not...

Since Martial Commander is the highest rank in Irio, then Underworld would have limitless influence in Irio if the Police Commissioner works with them.

But seeing the peaceful state of Irio, Ichiro's worry about it, might not be needed.

He doesn't know the strength of Underworld members in Irio, but he believes that there is at least one Martial Commander in their rank.

And Ichiro already saw the Martial Captain back in the harbor, who seemed like he was one of the leading figures.

The police officer Ichiro killed, was Martial Soldier rank, at least that's what Ichiro believed.

Because he doubt that he could have killed Martial Leader, that's why killing him was a huge gamble, especially if the police officer was strong and could have captured him.

But Ichiro made the gamble because he was 100% sure that the police officer wasn't Martial Captain.

Martial Captain is very strong, and in the police station, there aren't many of them.

But the outfit the police officer wore was deputy chiefs.

This meant that the police officer he killed was the deputy chief, who was quite high in the ranking.

But deputy chief, in a small city like Irio, usually isn't very strong.

Especially since most of the stronger fighters try to go pro while trying to earn wealth and fame.

Not many stronger fighters go to the police academy and work their asses off, only to end up in a job that doesn't even pay much.

But the ones who can't go pro usually end up in the Military or Police.

That's why Ichiro gambled, and it paid off.

Especially since the deputy chief seemed old, and he was slightly overweight as well.

Obviously ignored the training.

Ichiro was brought out of his daydreaming because the car stopped in front of an ordinary two-floor building.

They are home.

Ichiro took his bag and exited the vehicle.

He followed behind his parents to the house.

Once he entered the house, he finally managed to sigh a relief.

He was finally home, after an exhausting journey.

But before he could even put his bag down, he heard the sound of footsteps coming closer.

''BIG BROTHEEER!!!!'' The missile in a form of a little girl with pigtails ran towards Ichiro and smashed straight on his stomach.

''UGH.'' Ichiro groaned in pain, he was a Martial Leader fighter and he was injured by a little girl's hug.

If Lucas hears about it... He will never stop mentioning it.

''H-Hey Ayako.'' Ichiro patted her head.

''Hmph.'' Ayako pouted and kept clinging to his body.

Ichiro sighed and kept walking towards the living room while a little girl was still stuck on his body.

''Ayako, let go of your brother, he must be tired,'' Azumi told gently while looking at the pair of siblings.

''Fineee.'' Ayako told lazily and stopped hugging the torso of Ichiro.

Ichiro chuckled, he patted her head once more and started walking towards his room which was located on the second floor.

He opened the door to his room and closed it gently.

He saw his room which hasn't changed a bit.

White ceiling, white walls, and comfy looking bed next to the wall, and on the wall you can clearly see pictures of different games, the previous Ichiro enjoyed while a small desk was in front of the window.

He put his bag down, opened it, and took a white-colored charger.

He connected it with his phone, and it started showing a logo, which was huge blue W, which is a logo of a company called WorldyConnect, and they are makers of his phone.

The phone was now alive, while it looked like he had only 2% battery left, but it is now increasing.

He saw multiple calls coming from his parents.

And he also saw a few messages.

He opened the messaging app called WorldyTalk and saw messages coming from a guy with the nickname 'Slych<3Emilia'

''Ugh.'' Ichiro grimaced seeing Slych's nickname in the WorldlyTalk.

He opened the chat history.

{Slych<3Emilia: We didn't have time to say goodbye. You guys left so quick :o}

Ichiro sighed with disappointment, he was having fun with Slych and wanted to say goodbye at least, but his club advisor was panicking a little bit too much and decided to leave on the first plane.

He saw that the message came 5 hours ago.

'He is probably in-plane still...' Ichiro thought.

But he still decided to answer.

{KingOfGames: Sorry, the club advisor was panicking too much!!!! I had to do my morning tasks in a few minutes because we had to rush towards the airport because the plane leaves at 7 AM!!!! I wanted to say goodbye at least, because who knows when we meet next time :/}

Ichiro then pressed [Sent]

Ichiro's nickname was KingOfGames, which is an account the previous Ichiro made, and with his love for games, his nickname became like this.

Ichiro could change it... But he doesn't want to, because he wants to try some things as previous Ichiro did.

Ichiro looked around the room and saw a gaming console.

''I guess I should try games too,'' Ichiro said while looking at the gaming console.
