The little girl didn't take the candy. Instead, she said, "Master and Second Sister went to the hospital. Not sure when they'll be back. The First Brother went to teach someone a lesson. No idea when he'll come back either."
Master?
Bruno was shocked.
What kind of world is this? What kind of law is there? A little girl already has a master?
Her talent must be really good.
"How old are you, little sister?" Bruno blurted out.
The girl's expression turned dark. She coldly said, "Little brother, I'm nineteen this year. I'm not a little sister."
Nineteen?
Bruno was even more shocked. His eyes went wide.
Older than me by three years?
What the hell?
"You have bad intentions." The girl said, and suddenly attacked.
Fast, accurate, and deadly.
Because she was short, she aimed for Bruno's important parts.
"Come here, huh?" Bruno's face turned red. If he got hit there, he was done.
He quickly moved to block her hand, but he didn't expect another punch coming from the other side.
"Don't blame me for bullying a kid," Bruno said, getting impatient. He reached out to grab her fist with his hand.
They met in a clash.
A strong force shot through Bruno's palm and into his body. He was sent flying backward and crashed hard onto the floor.
He was shocked inside. This girl's punch carried over 750kg of force. Was she a 2-stage Arcane Power user?
So young, 2-stage? Did she tell the truth?
Was she really nineteen?
Bruno didn't dare to underestimate her anymore. His whole body surged with energy. He unleashed the Thunderclap Breathing Method, and a thundering sound filled his body.
The girl was surprised. "High Rank Thunderclap Breathing Method."
Bruno let out a shout. "You know that, good."
Thunderclap Breathing Method combined with Tiger-Wolf Combat Technique. He charged at the girl with 2000kg of force. She jumped up, and electric arcs surrounded her. In a sudden moment, Bruno grabbed her two breasts and slammed her down.
Boom!
A huge impact sounded, mixing with the sound of a tiger roaring with lightning.
"You really are perverted," the girl said, her face full of shame and anger.
Bruno put his hands up in front of his chest and said awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't mean to."
The girl was now red in the face. She fought with Bruno again.
At the general hospital.
Nell Gaston stood by the bed. After watching all night, he was still confused.
Who could have trained to the High Rank of The Ten Thousand Hells?
Elena yawned. She had been waiting all night and was getting really bored. She asked, "Master, did you find anything?"
"His mental power is strong. He has a deep influence on others. He's an old guy." Nell nodded, confident in his own judgment.
"Oh? How so?" Elena asked, curious.
Nell explained, "It's not easy to train such a strong mental power. It takes at least ten years or more. I'm just curious, how did he learn The Ten Thousand Hells?"
Elena became even more curious. "Can you beat him?"
Nell rolled his eyes. "What do you think?" Then he added, "He could hit this guy so hard because of that one moment of 'insight' when he broke through. It's not easy to do that in normal use."
"Got it. So should we go back now?" Elena yawned again. She was about to cry.
Nell nodded. "The guy should wake up tomorrow. Nothing serious. Let's go."
On the way, he kept thinking about where this person could have learned The Ten Thousand Hells.
They reached the staircase on the third floor of the martial arts hall.
Elena muttered, "My little sister should be awake by now."
Before she even finished speaking, a girl's angry scream came from above. "Pervert! Die!"
The two of them turned pale and ran up the stairs quickly.
On the fourth floor, on the floor.
A tall guy about 1.8 meters and a small girl about 1.2 meters were fighting, both holding each other tight, stuck in a stalemate.
Both of them had thunder sounds coming from their bodies. That was because they were both using the Thunderclap Breathing Method, trying to push each other apart.
Elena's mouth dropped open. She slapped her head and said, "You're Bruno?"
"It's me." Bruno smiled, showing a nice set of white teeth.
Elena's mouth opened even wider.
Wait a minute.
Let me think about it.
Bruno had only trained in the breathing method and meditation technique three days ago. Now he was already an Arcane Power user? And he was fighting evenly with the little sister?
What the hell?
For a moment, she felt like life was kind of pointless.
Bruno gritted his teeth and said, "Don't think too much. Can this little girl let me go first?"
"Little kid?" The girl looked even more angry. "You're the little kid. Your whole family is little kids."
"Argh!" She opened her mouth and bit Bruno's back.
Bruno cried, "Stop biting!"
He used all his Arcane Power, jumped up with the girl, and then slammed down hard.
Boom!
The floor was metal.
After that hit, the girl was unable to breathe, and there was even a crackling sound like bones breaking.
Elena rubbed her forehead, rushed forward, and pulled the girl and Bruno apart.
Bruno was shocked inside. Even in front of Elena, he couldn't move at all. From her thin, white hands, it felt like an endless power like mountains, rivers, and seas was coming out.
"What's going on here?" Elena frowned, showing her big sister attitude.
The little girl bit her teeth and said, "This guy sneaked into the fourth floor. His intentions were bad. I caught him and he attacked me. He even touched my..."
She didn't finish the sentence.
"Back then, it was urgent. Why didn't you say you wanted to fight me first..." Bruno tried to defend himself, but the little girl, now even more angry, yelled, "Shut up! Don't say another word."
"..." Bruno had no words. He just shrugged.
Elena sighed and put the two of them down. She looked at Nell.
The old man chuckled and said, "A little physical contact during a martial arts match is normal, right?"
He basically put a label on the whole thing.
"Come on, Britney, you're almost twenty. What are you arguing about with him?" Nell said.
Bruno suddenly realized. So the little girl's name was Britney.
Britney crossed her arms and let out a cold huff.
Nell cleared his throat and said to Elena, "Go check the Memory Stone. See what happened before."
The Memory Stone was also a creation of alchemists, similar to a camera.
The old man continued, "Britney, go fix your clothes. Look at how messed up you are."
A little while later.
The fourth floor was left with only Nell and Bruno.
"You came looking for me, right?" Nell asked.
Bruno nodded and said seriously, "I'm here to become your disciple."
He thought, the only person who could control the Heavenly Gang was probably someone above 12-stage Arcane Power Master.
"Become a disciple?" Nell smiled. "You're pretty confident, aren't you?"
Bruno bit his lip and said, "It can't hurt to try."
"When did you become an Arcane Power user?" Nell asked.
"Yesterday." Bruno said.
"???" Nell was shocked inside. Wait, this young man became an Arcane Power user less than a day ago?
If someone became an Arcane Power user in three years, that was normal. In one year, that was a prodigy. In one month, it was impressive enough to catch Nell's attention. But in one day...
That was rare.
Nell cleared his throat and asked, "Did you master the Meditation Technique?"
"Of course." Bruno nodded. Then he thought for a moment and added, "Not just that."
"What?" Nell rubbed his beard and asked, "Low Rank?"
"Not just that." Bruno shook his head.
Nell's throat moved. He seemed to have an idea and asked, "So... you're...?"
At that moment, a loud scream came from somewhere.
The old man immediately turned toward the Memory Stone. Had Elena found something?
Elena clutched her chest, her eyes full of shock. She whispered, "I don't want to live anymore."
The Memory Stone was playing a video on loop: a young man sitting cross-legged, his body glowing with a soft light, his face calm, neither happy nor sad. It was clearly a sign of High Rank The Ten Thousand Hells.
Sixteen years old. High Rank The Ten Thousand Hells.
Is this even human?
