Chapter 708 Making bonds
Originally, Austin thought it was time for him and Vlad to part. After all, he had already stayed at his house, and gotten a lot of information from him, but what he was looking to do would be extremely dangerous, especially for a normal person like Vlad.
However, when he and Killer had split up, Austin had made a simple mistake, how was he meant to find Killer? Without Killer, then he wouldn’t be able to find the gang or where this underground fight was going to be.
Which was why, once again, Austin was waiting outside the school Vlad went to. While waiting, he couldn't help but continue to think about the Shadow fighter.
‘The Shadow Fighter was fast and nimble, and skilled at fighting a bit like Innu. Only the movements were faster and tried to hit vital points that would do more damage. Judging from the small frame the Shadow Fighter didn’t have a lot of strength. Which just makes it more impressive because usually those types would be scared.’
The other thing that came to mind, was why the need to hide one’s identity. What benefit did it have? Wouldn’t they be able to control the crap that goes in schools more if people knew their face, and if they had a big gang backing them.
The school bell rang and as the students walked out, they couldn't help but point, stare, and whisper about Austin. Many recognised him and heard the stories about Big Mask seeing how he returned, many thought that he had returned to cause more trouble.
It didn't take long for Vlad to hear these rumours which caused him to rush out, and run to where Austin was.
“Come on, let's get out of here, before another problem happens.” Vlad said.
As the two walked away, Austin explained his conundrum, and of course Vlad knew where to find Killer, he also insisted on coming with Austin and wouldn’t tell him where, unless he was brought along.
“Alright, but for someone who isn’t a fighter himself, you seem to be really involved in all of this fighter stuff.” Austin said.
Vlad embarrassingly rubbed his head.
“Maybe it's because I can’t fight, I’ve always been fascinated by those that can, I mean sometimes I imagine if I could fight, what I would do, maybe I would be someone like the Shadow Fighter.”
Parking up, they started to move and could see a makeshift cage, it looked quite official, similar to the one in the AFA. As they got closer, a bald headed man with black leather jacket noticed Killer and ran over.
“There you are!” The man said, grabbing Killer by both arms. “I thought you weren’t going to turn up. Today is a big day we really need to impr—” The man’s speech started to slow, because he noticed that Killer was badly hurt, swollen and bruised all over the place.
“What happened to you, Killer... what happened!”
The man shouting was Herbert and was the leader of one of the small gangs in the city and Killer was his student that was meant to enter the Phantom Brawl.
“You idiot, how could you do this, today of all days. The Scavenger's daughters are here! This could be a big deal for all of us!” Herbert said.
After the shaking was done, Killer finally got some space to give some answer.
“Sorry... but I found a replacement for myself, he will be taking part instead.” Killer pointed at the large Austin.
