章 13: Mysterious pair of eyes
The five remaining bullies looking at his blonde friend lying on the floor. And then they looked at Rainn when they heard his laugh.
"Whos turn now?" Rainn looking at every one of them. Feeling like his victory has already been secured. He didn't think that his new power will grant him this much.
The five of them including Arden start running towards Rainn. They attack Rainn together with so much fury.
Usually, Rainn will just be lying on the floor because there is no way he could fight back against five of them.
But now is definitely different. Rainn can see their every attack, every movement seems in slow-motion once again. Or is it because Rainn has moved faster?
Rainn keeps using his [ ultimate instinct (lv.2) ] since they begin to attack. And didn't get punched even once.
Then he decided to end this fight quickly because the bell has already rung.
[ Skill activated: pyrokinesis (lv.3) ]
Of course, Rainn didn't want to kill them. At least right now. So he uses his fire and points to their legs.
Those who surrounded him in a circle didn't know what happen. Suddenly the stinging feeling burned at their leg.
"Arghh!!"
"What the hell?!"
"Shit!"
They all stopped and fell to the floor. Rainn looked at them with a smirk. But he was kinda disappointed because he didn't hurt them bad enough. If he can add points to his stat without training, he prefers to just beat them with strength.
But the notification that the quest has been completed does not yet appear. Didn't he already defeat them?
[ Urgent quest clear condition: Reduce their HP to at least 3 ]
"Oh." Rainn immediately realizes what he gotta do. HP means the point that determines their life. So basically, Rainn had to beat them until they almost die to complete the quest.
"Well," Rainn mumbled. "I guess you guys are not very lucky."
Their scream was muted by the thick wall of this old building. Nobody can hear them even when they started to scream and beg for help.
The burn marks may be leaving traces in their body. Rainn thought it was good. So they can remember what they did today and to whom they did it.
[ Urgent quest completed! ]
[ Reward: 60 Exp ]
[ Exp: 55/55 ]
[ Congratulations! You leveled up! ]
[ You got 5 skill points ]
"Yeah!" Rainn exclaimed after seeing the notification text appear. He walked past their unconscious body and see his stats window.

Rainn smiled happily then walked outside the building.
He activated Ultimate Instinct once again to see if anyone has seen him. But nobody here. So Rainn sighed in relief and continued walking.
The bell already ringing like two minutes ago. Rainn entered the class and sit at his seat in the back row. He tries to hide his smile as much as possible so that nobody will be suspicious.
The class started as usual. Rainn spends the class choosing another skill from the skill list. He can't pay attention to the lesson right now because he's too excited.
~~~
When school is over, Rainn wants to head back home immediately to practice. But when walking down the corridor, a poster on the bulletin board caught his attention.
The poster says:
'Recruiting members for The Supernatural Hunter Club. We want to gather anyone interested in being a supernatural hunter, or just want to know more without being one. Come! Don't miss the chance to know more about the exciting supernatural hunting world!'
Rainn snorted, 'Exciting? Who the fuck got this ridiculous idea?'
"Interested?"
A sudden feminine voice makes Rainn turn his head. Standing behind him is a short girl wearing glasses with braided twin-tail hair. She smiled at him.
"No," Rainn answered simply. Then walk away.
"You sure? Vyra is the leader of this club!"
Rainn stopped. Then turn his head again.
"Why does she want to become the leader of this ridiculous club?" Rainn can't help but feel confused. Why did Vyra decide to lead this club? Every supernatural hunter knows that there's no excitement in being one.
"Ridiculous? How dare you!" The smile on the girl's face suddenly disappear. She walked towards Rainn then glare at him.
Rainn didn't feel threatened at all. This girl is very angry. But she is only as high as his chest.
"What you mean this is club is ridiculous?" Ask the girl while putting her hand on her hips.
"Because you put the word 'exciting' in it.' Rainn answered flatly.
"But it is exciting! Have ever encountered one of those supernatural creatures? I bet you haven't! The creature from the nightmare that haunts you in your sleep! Don't you wanna know more about them?"
Rainn snorted, then laughed. He cant believe how silly this girl's mind can be.
"Why are you laughing now?" Now she crossed her arm.
"Tell Vyra she should disband this club before more dumb people join," Rainn said. Then he just turns on his heel and starts walking away.
The girl looked at his back angrily. She puffed up her cheek and stomped on the floor, "What a jerk!"
Rainn still couldn't stop thinking about that girl. Where is the idea of the exciting supernatural hunter coming from? She thought about them like they are some kinda cute animal that hasn't been discovered yet.
[ Main Quest Reminder! Investigate a murder ]
"Oh right," Rainn thought with a sigh. He can't just go home and train. He has to investigate the murder of some noble.
On the other side, a girl wearing a school uniform under a black hoodie is looking at Rainn from a distance.
Her vision and advanced hearing make her can see and hear Rainn with this distance.
"Who is he? How can he learn how to use magic?" The girl mumbled to herself.
She sees Rainn beating that six students. Because she is already at that old school building before them. And she sees everything.
Rainn using a fire he creates himself. And his reflexes almost reach the level of her race.
Moreover, she has seen Rainn at the library. Right after she killed that man.
