Calamity Upon This World

Chapter 9: Ch-9 Memories Of A Past Life



A dishevelled brown-haired boy of a small stature was seen running on the streets.

"Fuck I messed up this time," said the young man.

"Well, now what? I've got no parents, no home, no school and almost no money".

"Should I just agree to what Rachel said? " Asked the young man with a contemplative gaze.

"Nah, I can't die without making the killer of my parents pay".

"But how do I pull this off? I barely have enough money to last me 3 days".

While the boy was contemplating between suicide and revenge.

He saw a young teen girl standing on a bridge in quite a dangerous position as if she planned to jump.

However, before she could jump a voice called out to her " Hey since you're going to die anyways wanna have sex before you die?".

"WTF!!" The girl almost fell from shock however, she managed to balance herself in the end.

"Of course not you crazy pervert" The girl shouted back.

"Well you can't blame me if you're going to die anyway shouldn't you at least experience it once before dying? " The boy innocently asked as if oblivious to the absurdity of his own words.

"No, I'm not about to give my first time to somebody as ugly as you".

"Fine, but just remember once you jump your corpse won't need consent".

Shocked by what she just heard, the girl quickly stepped down and ran away from the bridge worried that the perverted boy would follow her.

"Well, that was pretty fun," The boy thought with an amused expression once he saw that she was gone.

After some time the boy finally had a good idea about what to do.

"Let's use my remaining money to move to a different city and look for a stable source of income, as Jason's father has too much influence in this city".

"I can think about revenge once I'm able to feed myself".

********

Once Naoya had reached Altair city, he had no more money.

It was already night time by the time he reached the city so he had to settle for sleeping in the train station.

Once morning arrived Naoya was kicked out of the station.

"Ow so rude" Naoya couldn't help but grumble about the rough treatment he received.

"Whatever I at least managed to get through the night".

After this Naoya spent the whole day looking for a job however, all to no avail as he failed to get any job due to him being a minor and also looking weak.

"Shit"

'This wasn't how it was meant to be' Naoya thought with a frustrated expression.

'I need to get stronger and taller, if I can do that I can pretend to be an adult'.

While Naoya was thinking about ways to get stronger, he stumbled upon an establishment which perfectly fitted his needs.

[Zard's Fight Club]

******

"Just like that, Mike's on a roll tonight, is there anyone here who would like to challenge our champion for a chance at the prize pool?" Said a beautiful blonde woman with glossy red lips and a revealing red dress showing her cleavage.

In the middle of the room was a giant caged arena with a tall bald man with a dark complexion standing and smiling at the blonde man lying unconscious on the ground.

Surrounding the cage were rows of seats with the audience cheering loudly seeing the man they bet on winning while those who bet on the loser could do nothing but sigh in regret for giving into their greed.

The bald man who just won was Mike Wingar, the undefeated champion of the arena who has been undefeated for the past 2 months.

"Is this the end of tonight's fight club or will a brave man like to challenge our champion for a chance to win tonight's pool of 7000$? " Asked the blonde woman.

Silence.....

No one dared to raise their voice or hand, after seeing all the matches of tonight and how no one had even managed to land a hit on Mike.

That is until from the back of the crowd a hand was raised, the hand looked malnourished.

"Oh looks like we have a brave fighter amongst us" Said the announcer looking at the raised hand amongst the crowd.

Upon, hearing the announcer's voice the crowd gave way revealing a short brown-haired boy with green eyes and dark circles.

The boy was wearing a plain black hoodie with grey sweatpants and black shoes, the boy also looked a bit malnourished.

"Hey boy how did you get in? " Asked the woman puzzled by how the security let in such a sorry-looking boy in the establishment.

"I beat up the security" The boy shot back completely ignoring how ridiculous what he just said sounded.

"Wait what?" The woman was stunned by what she just heard so she decided to send someone to check the validity of the boy's words.

Once the staff member returned and confirmed the boy's words.

She couldn't contain her joy as she said "Hah, very well kid, what's your name?" The woman asked a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Naoya Zingar" The boy shot back.

"Hah, what an interesting name but very well Naoya come on the arena let's see how you beat up our guards".

The crowd was amazed to hear that such a small kid managed to beat the security guards and sneak.

"Hey 100$ on Naoya"

"200$ on Naoya"

"50$ on Naoya"

Sensing the opportunity a bunch of people couldn't contain their greed as they started betting on Naoya in hopes of winning big.

However, these risk-takers were still in the minority as the majority of people still bet on Mike as usual.

While all this was going Naoya only had one thought in mind as he ascended the stairs.

'It doesn't matter how strong someone is as long as they are a man they all have one weakness' Naoya thought as he entered the arena with a confident expression.

*********

After some time murmurs of the crowd could be heard as they all had the same thought on their mind.

'This kid is insane'.
