Capítulo 45: "Everywhere I go...."
Risa had commanded the Elysium to set sail to Tokyo at once. When it comes to the sake of her son, she won't waste precious times, as much as she doesn't want to.
Meanwhile, Ray arrived at the particular gym where Reina was supposed to meet with him.
It was located in the heart of Tokyo's vibrant district, Shibuya. The district pulsates with an energy that is both captivating and infectious. As one of Tokyo's most dynamic and bustling districts, Shibuya has earned a global reputation for its unique blend of fashion, nightlife, and iconic landmarks, including the famous Shibuya Crossing.
Ray stood in front of a beacon of fitness and energy that stood tall, the city's largest, busiest, and most lavish gym. As the sun cast its golden rays over the bustling metropolis, the gym came alive with the sounds of determination and sweat.
The gym's interior is sleek and modern, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic views of the city skyline. Neon lights illuminate the space, casting a vibrant glow over the various workout zones.
As Ray enter, the sound of upbeat music fills the air, blending with clinking of weights and the rhythmic thud of treadmills. The gym is abuzz with activity, filled with witness enthusiasts of all ages and backgrounds sweating it out in pursuit of their fitness goals.
The workout area is divided into sections dedicated to different exercises, from free weights and machines to cardio equipment and functional training zones. Trainers move around, providing guidance and encouragement to clients, while groups engage in high-intensity classes led by energetic instructors.
In one corner, a sleek juice bar offers refreshing drinks and healthy snacks, providing a quick refuel for gym-goers. The ambience is lively yet focused, creating an atmosphere that motivates and inspires.
I was already inside the gym. I scanned the whole area, but Reina was still nowhere to be found.
When I entered the gym, I felt a lot of gazes upon me.
Eyes filled with amazement, lust, love and attraction were directed at me. Basically, I had caught the attention of most women here, but I felt an aura from most men lift weights, sparring and training in punching bags.
I felt a hostility, unwelcoming, antagonistic and envious vibe from them.
While waiting for Reina to show up, I was approached by a tall, bald and muscular man.
"Good morning, sir. Do you want to apply for a membership here?" He asked me in English, smiling and friendly.
I didn't respond to him immediately as I was still busy searching for Reina inside and outside.
"Sir? Do you not speak English?" He asked again, still smiling and welcoming.
"I'm waiting for my stepsister to show up." I answered him in Japanese, calmly.
"I'll speak to you later whe she finally arrives." I added.
The gym manager smiled at me.
"Very well, sir, I'll leave you for now." He then left.
Minutes passed, and Reina still hadn't shown up.
Feeling impatient, I took a seat on one of the benches near the entrance.
Suddenly, while minding my own business, I was approached by five tall, muscular and young men. They held their heads high, their chests pumped, their arms veiny and their hands all wrapped like a ball.
They stood as if they wanted to intimidate and dominate me, but it wasn't working for me.
I know these type of guys, all bark and no bite, easy to scare off and they run as if their master's whip was behind them.
"Hey." Someone called for me but I didn't respond.
I kept looking at my phone, trying to see if Reina had message for me.
"Hey!" Another one, but he raised his voice at me.
I was too busy scrolling my phone to respond.
"This bitch pisses me off!" Someone angrily muttered.
"Yeah, especially his pretty face!" Another one angrily muttered.
"The way he walked inside the gym thinks he owns this place, and all the women around here." A third one commented, his eyes and heart filled with jealousy.
"Yeah, you're right. Let's fuck him up so he won't have to come back here." The fourth one agreed.
They clenched their fists.
"Go hit his pretty face, bro." The first one suggested to the third one in a whisper.
"Yeah, ruin his pretty face." The second one suggested also in a whisper.
"Alright, I'll go first. Watch me how I will fuck him up." The third one whispered back, filled with cockiness.
Suddenly, someone rushed towards me with his fist raised.
His fist was about to hit me, but I stopped it by grabbing his whole hand, thanks to my enhanced reflexes and speed.
"What the fuck?" The guy that was about to punch me muttered, confused.
The four guys behind him were also suprised.
In a swift move, I pulled the guy close to me and whispered something near his ear.
"Go fuck with someone else or I'll break your hand into a thousand pieces." I coldly threatened him in a whisper.
I pushed the guy away aggressively, and the four guys caught him.
His eyes widened. Fear and defeat were written all over his face.
"You foreign motherfucker!" Someone yelled from my right side.
As I looked to my right, a short but muscular man was charging at me like a bull with an angry look and envious eyes.
Not wanting to take the hit, I made a swift and sharp roundhouse kick, hitting the side of his face.
He flew a short distance away from me and was knocked out on the ground.
Suddenly...
"Bro!"
I turned around and saw Reina, standing in front of the gym door.
"That was fucking amazing!" Reina exclaimed in amazement, her eyes sparkling and filled with admiration.
