Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: I will register

" Breaking news a dungeon opened on High lane in district four was said to be explored by five rank E hunters unfortunately the dungeon wasn't secured and the huntersqere killed in it leaving the portal open which lead to a monster outbreak in district four, the monsters killed a total of 19 civilians which brings the number of deaths to a total of 24, district four is said to have experienced its third monster outbreak, luckily the situation was quickly handled and was resolved by the elites of the Hunters association." the report played on the television.

' I was in High lane today I saw that building crash and then I ran home avoiding any trouble , I was right there, i was in High lane the dungeon opened the building crashed everything happened while I was there I was this close to been killed. '

" Kieran, Kieran!! " Sarah called out noticing the horror on Kieran's face.

" Are you alright? You seem frightened, What's wrong? " she asked closely inspecting him trying to find out what was wrong with him.

" I was there "Kieran blurted out blankly his face still etched in horror.

" I was in High lane I went there on a whim it was very quiet and peaceful there were some people ahead of me I am guessing they were the hunters that got killed. While I was there a building suddenly collapsed so I ran all the way back home, the dungeon must have broken when the building collapsed." He said

" What!! " Sarah exclaimed fear etched on her face as she examined Kieran from head to toe. " I don't want you going any where near High lane ever again are we clear? "She said half yelling.

" Yes "he replied still reeling from the news.

" The hunters association doesn't seem to get it job done right, they mess up on every turn now I understand why the military has opened its own hunter academy maybe just maybe if the military retakes its power as the government maybe it won't be like this anymore "Sarah said watching the news reports.

" I think I would register for the academy " Kieran said eyes still glued to the television.

" What !!" Sarah said in disbelief.

" Yes I will register for the academy and become a hunter then maybe I can do something about this "Kieran said determination blooming on him gradually a determination to change the world, a determination to change society itself to change the way everyone treated each other to change the district system it was trash and those with power were the ones who created it to make themselves feel on top to boost their pathetic ego. It was due to this district system and the way they treated the less privileged that all this disasters happened and the victims were mostly those in district four monster outbreak was rampant in this district and it had the most casualties.

High lane alone had had a total number of Thirteen dungeon open in its vicinity and three of that had led to monster outbreaks. High lane was just one street in district four among many others.

District four alone had experienced a total of fifty four monster outbreak and the number of dungeons that had opened here had passed the hundred mark.

When dungeons open on the first district it is usually shut immediately and handled properly monster outbreak in the first district was a myth something unreal while in lower district the situation worsened gradually second district was also a place where dungeons where quickly closed but the efficiency wasn't like in the first, the third district had experienced monster outbreaks also but not as many as the fourth.

Diversity amongst humans was at an all time level of high and it was leading to loss of lives yet no one was doing anything about it.

" Kieran are you sure you want to join, don't just jump into making your decision, look at the news see what happened look at the destruction and loss of lives if you join the academy to become a hunter that is what you would be facing, monsters that kill people it's not a game it's real life " Sarah said trying to persuade him to think more about it.

" I thought you wanted me to go " Kieran said looking at Sarah

" I didn't want you to make your decision based on fear of what others might do there and I still don't want you to make the decision based of this I want your decision to be genuinely based on you wanting it " Sarah replied holding his hands

" I do want this I realized that the diversity amongst ourselves isn't going to change when it comes to district four the hunters basically ignore our plights this district experiences monster outbreak like it's a casual Tuesday they focus all their attentions on the first and second district and ignore us like we don't exist I am done with that people with powers are nothing but bullies and scum and that's why we're always ignored cause those in power those with authority don't give a damn about us we're on our own here " Kieran replied " I am going to change that I would get strong so strong that no one would dare ignore or bully me then I would change it all. "

" Ah!! " Sarah sighed her head dropping staring at the floor.

" Fine, since you've decided to join I won't stop you. How do you register. " she asked staring at him.

" That's the problem I don't know how "
