Chapter 304: Chapter 304 Found out.
Then, after taking his revenge, Jiang Wei would snatch Xiao Lian\'s and force her to submit to his demand. His mind began to wander through the cloud, making the man who saw his dumbfounded face almost punch Jiang Wei.
The man held his breath, then exhaled. He regulated it several times. After feeling his heartbeat slowed, the man opened his mouth.
"Excuse me, Mr. Jiang Wei, regarding the payment?".
"Huh?!".
Jiang Wei\'s pupils dilated as he looked at the man with scorn. He clicked his tongue before taking his phone from his pocket and accessing his bank account.
The man closed the briefcase as he felt a slight vibration coming from his phone. He took it and saw a notification as proof of transferring gold currencies at the exact agreed price.
"It is a pleasure to do business…".
Without waiting for the man to finish the words, Jiang Wei snatched the briefcase and shooed away the man with a gaze of contempt.
After thinking it was finished, Jiang Wei turned away and brought the briefcase in his hand toward a desolate place where no eyes would find out what he had done.
The bustling crowds that still cheer for the contestants that fight in the arena irked him to the core. So, he moved his feet, dragging him toward a deserted wide place where he couldn\'t find a single soul.
He arrived at the field beside the academy; he sat on the bench that caught his eyes, and with an excited heart, he opened up the case and then took away the vial inside.
Its red fluid glimmering under the light of the sun that watched his moves, he gulped away the nervousness in his mouth. His heart started to race, and a slight hesitation appeared in his eyes.
Jiang Wei shook his head to the side as he couldn\'t believe that he would falter after all this much. With trembling hands, he popped out the lid and then shoved the vial tips to his mouth.
A tangy odor and iron taste got stuck in his mouth, but it didn\'t take long for it to travel down his throat and settle in his stomach.
"Fuu…".
He exhaled, relief painting his face. Suddenly, from within his stomach, Jiang Wei felt something was wrong. His stomach churned, and then the heat started to gather around it, boiling the acid inside. Jiang Wei\'s face contorted, clutching his heated stomach.
The heat began to spread to all of his veins, and it made his white skin turn red like a boiled octopus. Sweat that excreted from his pores evaporated, and his mind started to turn dizzy, along with his blurred vision. Explore more at m,v l\'e-NovelBin.net
However, all of that was just a fleeting moment before his body returned to normal, and Jiang Wei could feel that his body was brimming with power from the inside.
A gush thin layer of red mana began to accumulate in his skin before it scattered across the air, disappearing like sparkling fireworks.
"Ha, ha, ha,."
After it was gone, Jiang Wei crawled on all fours while panting roughly. His skin returned to normal, but his body still emitted a white mist.
"Damn it!".
He returned to his seat, leaned his body backward, and sighed.
"That was rough, but".
With still battered breath, Jiang Wei clenched his fist, and the man inside his body responded easily, and it gathered around his palm. He could feel the density of its mass, and with this kind of mana, he believed he could scorch Soma for sure.
"Hehe, ahahaha!".
"I see, so that\'s how it works!".
A cold and menacing voice entered his ears, and then Jiang Wei turned his head to its source. He saw a young boy with black hair and a cold gaze like the midst of winter, looking at him with contempt.
"You are?!".
*****
Under the warm sun and the chilly autumn wind that brushed her skin, Akane, wearing an Academy uniform, sat on a bench while being covered by a single street lamp on the academy side road, slurping a can of black coffee she purchased from a vending machine.
From another perspective, they might have assumed that she was resting, but her eyes were glinting with focus, and her mind was sharp looking at a certain place where a transaction happened.
Her gaze bloated, and her pupils dilated dangerously as she saw the familiar sight of the red vial that her clan had informed her of.
In the short span of this week, in the black market, those items were running rampant. The item itself was said to be a diluted devil blood that was created by the hands of the demon organization that still haunted them from ancient times. They called the item \'Angel Tears\' because the effect of the serum can enhance a person\'s overall abilities to another height with ease.
Even though it was a new product, there were many testimonies from the buyer, and those serums were sought worldwide by people who had access to the black market. Akane got the news that a student from the academy dared to challenge his curiosity.
As the transaction was over, Akane\'s eyes squinted dangerously; then, she followed his movement thoroughly.
"What are you doing here, Akane?".
Her body jolted violently as she stood up, summoned a dagger from her storage, and turned to the source with a battle stance ready.
There, she could see Soma calmly receiving her murderous gaze and thoroughly observing Akane. Feeling uncomfortable being watched, she stored the dagger back and began to track back the student and the person who sold it.
She scanned the surroundings, but she couldn\'t find the guy with a black suit. Only the male student fidgets while bringing a case in hand.
"Tch!".
Akane hesitated to follow the student because of Soma\'s presence. While under investigation, her mind began to connect the dots herself.
Due to Soma\'s irregular presence, she felt tremendous doubt about his good nature. The transaction involving the demon organization and the fact that he came to stop her from following the boy and the supplier had become enough proof that he was related to the organization.
Her senses flared up, and a murderous aura began to leak from her skin, inflicting his curiosity. To her surprise, Soma was fine, even after being subjected to her murderous intent. He even sighed in annoyance and started to follow the male student, ignoring her presence.
"Wait!".
Akane rushed forward, summoning her dagger and starting to engage in battle with him. Soma, who watched Akane lunge at him, calmly observed her posture and her rhythm in carrying herself.
Soma, who had superior stats in physical and Martial depth, reluctantly faced him properly. Once Akane\'s dagger arrived, he inched his face. He grabbed her wrist and let the momentum bring her body forward.
With a bit of intervention from him, Akane\'s body spun forward before her back slammed hard to the ground.
"Gahak!".
The suffocated feeling that choked her throat almost blasted away her consciousness. But Akane resisted the pain that assaulted her back, biting her lips and trying to regain her stance.
However, her body was suddenly turned around, facing the ground, and locked in place.
"Kuh, release me!".
Akane grits her teeth, trying to liberate herself from the restraint.
"This is self-defense, and why do you try to attack all of a sudden? Luckily, I didn\'t kill you!".
Those cold words that seeped into her ears made her body flinch in terror. She once again realized just how far the disparity between them is.
However, Akane is a person from the dark side, so she already resolved herself when death came to collect her.
"I would rather die by myself than be killed by you!".
The moment Akane tried to do a suicide mission, the earth beneath them shook, and it alerted them.
Soma, who felt something was not right, released his restraint and stood up. He scans his surroundings to search for the source, and he gets a reaction from his skill.
"That way, huh!".
Without wasting any breath, he dashed away from the place, leaving the dumbfounded Akane, who was still lingering about her suicide.
Another commotion happened, and it shook Akane\'s brain as she sobered and stood up from the place. She rubbed the aching wrist Soma had grasped earlier; biting her lips, she began to follow Soma\'s trace and went toward the commotion.
Soma, who goes first, arrives in no time at the place where there is a wide field and two figures of students in collision.
"Lin Fan, what are you doing here?".
Lin Fan, hearing his name called, turned his attention and frowned upon looking at the figure of Soma. He scoffed and turned his attention to the senior in front of him, who lay down on the field, holding his left ribs, which seemed broken by the power from Lin Fan.
Akane, who joined late, saw the commotion and wondered what had happened. She deliberately alternated her spiteful gaze toward Soma and then toward the field.
"Hmph, so that\'s it, Weak. As I thought, without relying on that thing. I am strong!".
Lin Fan, with his sharp eyes, looked toward his own clenched hands, feeling the growth he had worked for the last month.
Soma, who couldn\'t hear what Lin Fan had mumbled about, his body flinched; he could feel a familiar sensation coming from Jiang Wei\'s body.
"Get out from there, Lin Fan!".
