Nero, The Legendary Hunter

The next morning.

Jair was curious about the Nan Empire. He was basically the only bachelor in the group. After all, he still didn't know exactly what Honda and Jingu's relationship was, but he was sure it was very deep... Maybe something like Nero, Yui, and Choko?

Not wanting to dwell on it, and not wanting to be the third round for either of them, Jair walked the mansion's gigantic grounds destined to go out and walk around the city of the Nan Empire.

It was still quite early, it had just dawned.

"Good Morning." The gardener told him when he saw him.

Jair smiled: "Good morning, good work."

"Thank you, young man." The gardener wasn't exactly old, but he was already in his mid-30s.

Jair scratched his head and smiled a little as he passed the gardener.

All the way, Jair can't help but be impressed. In the town he came from, he wasn't exactly poor, but compared to this mansion, he could only look and envy.

When he came out through the gate, some people saw him leave. The curiosity about him was great, after all, the place where he came from was not common.

Feeling the eyes in his direction, Jair felt a little embarrassed. It was obvious they were curious if he was related to the mansion's owner, or was 'just' someone who works there.

The looks of the girls who ran around town, possibly training their bodies and part of the Hunter School, were mostly sharp. Jair felt naked in front of these girls...

'Why are they looking at me so intensely?' Jair shuddered. Not that he didn't want to be popular with the girls, but it was a little scary the look these girls gave him.

Today was a holiday and there was no school, but still, as he walked, Jair saw many young people aged between 13 and 18. Either they were running, exercising, or they were going shopping and having fun early in the morning.

Moving away, he walked through more isolated locations.

In the Nan Empire, there were many cities, Jair did a little research and intended to go to the city of Brejaru.

It was a little far, that was one of the reasons he left so early.

The city Brejaru was part of the empire's wall, precisely because of that, he didn't need to pay tolls to get there.

It took almost 3 hours to walk. It was a long walk, but Jair was thrilled. It's been a while since he's had time for himself.

Surrounded by mountains, the town of Brejaru, although a little poor, had a picturesque landscape with beautiful hills and crystal clear waters.

'Hot springs...' Jair's smile grew a little. He wanted to take a nice bath in a hot spring and relax.

Before leaving, he left a note advising that he was leaving. He didn't want to make the others worried, after all.

From not far away, Jair heard a loud crashing sound, the loudest being the sound of what appeared to be bones being broken.

A little worried, and curious, he headed towards the sound.

In a dimly lit alley, a girl was being surrounded by some men.

"You bitch!" Holding a metal staff, the man with blood pouring from his head screamed at the top of his lungs.

The girl remained indifferent to the insult. She looked at the man coldly.

A few inches away, she easily grabbed the man's wrist and pressed it hard into a certain position!

A feeling of helplessness originated from her wrist, and the man's staff froze right above the girl's head!

The girl's eyes grew even colder as she turned around. The baton's direction changed and smashed the man's head directly!

Hot blood splattered all over her face, but she didn't even blink!

*Beng!*

She released her hand emotionlessly, and the man with the crushed head fell to the ground!

A cold breeze came from behind her!

She swung the bat without looking back!

The man, who was trying to approach her, widened his eyes. Before his knife could land, he was crushed at the waist!

*Beng!*

The sound of bones being crunched sent shivers down my spine!

Jair, who just arrived at the alley, was impressed!

'Damn, this girl is fierce!' Jair was filled with emotion as he watched.

He wasn't helping out for fear the girl would mistake him for one of her enemies.

'Mmm? Why did the girl's face get so flushed?' Jair frowned.

One of the men who weren't shot noticed it too, joy spreading across his face.

The girl calmed down and looked at the white rope that was about to wrap itself around her neck at any moment. The instant the man ran towards her, the girl lifted her leg and kicked the man in her thigh hard.

"Ahhh!"

Another man didn't think she would hold out for long, 'The drug started to kick in...' With that thought in mind, he who was the second strongest in the group attacked using taekwondo-style foot strikes.

The girl dodged the long leg that was sweeping towards her. With a faint but sinister smile on her face, the girl said to the man, "What an impressive leg. I think you can get away really fast with it."

"That's why I must ruin you. Sorry." Although she said those words with a smile, the content was violent and bloody.

Her bloodthirsty smile made the man, whose heart was pounding wildly, realize the imminent danger. In a panic, the man tried to remove his long leg.

But how could the girl give him a chance to escape? With an icy, calm look in her crystal blue eyes, the girl launched an attack as fast as lightning. As she leaned to one side, she used her right hand to grab the man's ankle.

In an instant, the girl's hand was surrounded by lightning, the crackling sound echoing like a strong electrical discharge.

Jair sensed something was wrong, the girl's red face got even redder and she started panting additively.

The man used his other leg to attack.

*Beng!*

The girl only had time to raise her arm to defend herself.

The impact wasn't too great, but as the girl was caught in a moment when she was weak, she was forced to take several steps back while panting.

Jair didn't look anymore, he took his sword, then he advanced decisively.

The girl had seen him before, now that she saw that he advanced towards them holding a sword that looked very powerful, she shivered. However, to her surprise, the boy who had just arrived did not attack her, but the man she had just injured his foot with.

*Whoosh! Whoosh!*

The sword cuts were quick and clean, even though he didn't want to be violent, he ended up cutting a leg of the man and an arm and a leg of the other that was relatively stronger, however, he didn't even have a chance to fight back in front of Jair's strength.

After that, Jair looked at the girl, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

The girl was even more beautiful up close, she had a pair of extremely beautiful almond eyes, where the inner corners were pointed and the outer corners were slightly raised up. Her eyes looked clean and clear. Her pupils were dark and deep as night, adding a touch of coldness to them.
