Chapter 43

Chapter 43

A brand new Ford Expedition was running on the highway. In the car, there are four people. 

Christian Rothschild was driving while the other three were busy about doing nothing...

"Boss Christian, where did you meet Kyle? "

"I met him 3 days ago. He trespassed my villa and knock on my door. Then he asked about partnership. "

"....."

Mikael was dumbfounded, he didn't knew what to say. He looked at the clueless criminal, but the culprit was sleeping. Kyle was brave man, he's not afraid to enter the jail. 

"Ah, ahahahaha... ehem! Then why did you follow him? We are Hunters, are you not scared about any possibilities that we can do to you?"

He coughed and said. 

"I already met many people. I can easily detect if they are Hunters, they emit bloodlust."

"So you have a keen eye when it comes to people"

Mikael observed him. 

"Yes. I believe you are not bad. "

"Is that so? I can kill you in a second"

Mikael turned serious. He emitted the bloodlust that Christian was saying. He test the man. He wanted to know what reaction he would show. Perhaps he's a good actor and he wouldn't show any weakness... unfortunately Mikael hates people who hides their emotions.    

"Just by using my hand, I can squeeze your head an-- ouch!!! What are you doing Kyle!? I'm talking okay! "

Kyle kicked him and he stumbled. 

"Are you insane? You're scaring my business partner. I thought you're a good guy? How can you say those words easily?"

"Hahaha, let him be. He's just a teenager, you know them and their ego, haha. "

"... Tch. "

No reaction, he's not scared or angry. He just smile and Mikael found it creepy. 

'Did Kyle made the right decision? Can we trust this creepy guy? '

Mikael didn't knew the answer. He believes in Kyle but not in this stranger. 

"We are near"

Miriam reminded them.

"Ah oh I remember. "

Because he's thinking about their possible new member. Mikael had almost forgotten that they were near his home. 

He got out and took every souvenirs that he bought.

"Let me help you. "

Miriam carried the shoes and help him. 

"Ah, thanks a lot. Klein loves shoes, especially Jordan. I decided to buy him many shoes to elevate his feelings... "

"You're a sweet brother. If you're talking about shoes, why don't give him an Equipment Shoes, it's better if it has effects and options. "

"Hahahaha of course! I have 3 shoes in my Inventories. "

In fact, he had more. He had Armors,  Weapons,  and  Potions. These were all for Klein and his Grandparents, he only have them. That's why he's ready to give everything to them just to be safe and healthy. 

He even had monster meat for anti- aging effect. 

"Kuya, you're here!"

"Hello Klein"

Miriam greeted the little brother. 

"Hi sister Miriam"

Klein helped Miriam with holding the boxes. He took everything that's heavy for Miriam. 

"Klein, please prepare some coffee for our visitors. "

"Okay kuya. You never told me that you know some foreigners. I thought you were joking when you said it on the phone hehe. "

"This is Kyle and Christian. I met Kyle in the Awakening. As for Christian, he will be the business partner of Kyle. "

"Will be?"

"It's a long story. Just prepare some coffee. Let's be hospitable. "

Mikael sighed, he didn't want to say that his friend made an illegal trespass. 

They entered the house and greeted their Lolo and Lola who's watching T.V.

"Hello Lola, Lolo. Mano po"

Mikael took their hands and put it on his forehead. This is a traditional way of showing respect to the elders in the Philippines.

"Oh, bless you, how are my sweet grandchild? Did you have a good time, how's the travel? I saw you on T.V. my grandson is famous."

.

The House of Tibano is old, but it's wide. This house had stood since 1935. It has a second floor which had four rooms. The four visitors could fit in the house.

"Then, what do you want to talk? I felt like there's something odd about you when we talk to the phone. Do you have problems? "

In Mikael's room. He and Klein were talking and they look serious.

Klein was nervous and he wanted to say something. His back was sweating a lot. 

"Kuya... I- I want to be a Hunter"

Mikael didn't change his face. He already expected this.

"No. I don't want you to be a Hunter. Klein this is not a game. This is a dangerous job. You will die if you make mistakes, this is what Hunters means. "

"But!"

"Klein, if you want revenge. It's already done. I slaughter the monsters that killed our parents. Cavite is safe now. "

"No. This is not about those ants... When I watch you fighting those monsters, I'm surprised. I never thought in my life that you could save two cities in just one week. Kuya I want to be like you. I wanna be a hero"

"Listen here you punk my-"

"Why don't you agree. You got two Skill Book in your inventories. "

Another voice appeared and the door opened. Miriam and Kyle were listening on their conversation. 

"Sorry Mikael. Kyle said that I need to use my Skill to eavesdrop. "

The woman clasped her hands. 

"Wow, you're making me the bad guy here. To tell you the truth, Miriam uses her Clairvoyance to eavesdrop, you know gossiper's quirk."

They quarrel about who's the ringleader. 

Mikael was pissed. He doesn't want them to join their conversation. This is about his brother's upbringing. Outsiders were not allowed to gave their opinions, especially if it's about Klein's future. Mikael treasures his brother. 

"Wow, I'm speechless. You're now disturbing our conversation, and you're not guilty eh. "

He's actually frustrated but his little brother quickly join in. 

"Kuya!? You got a Skill Books!?"

Klein shocked when he heard that his brother have two Skill Books. 

"Yes, I have, but I'll never give it to you. "

The young man couldn't deny it, Mikael is the type that never back down. He lost his will to fight but the Regressor helped him. 

Kyle stepped up and said.

"Your name is Klein right? Don't worry, leave the Skill Book to me, I can get you a good one. "

"Yay!!

His eyes beamed when he heard it. 

"Hey!! What the f*ck are you doing!?"

He shouted, he almost grab his neck. 

Miriam appeared in the middle and said.

"Come on, just give the Skill Book"

"You too, Miriam!?"
