Chapter 57: [Spirit's Trial II]

[Hawaii]

For the 5th time, Ryuuji himself snapped back into reality as Everytime he wakes up from it, a shockwaves would always blew him away whenever he would lose

"Uuuuhhhh!!!" Groaned Ryuuji as he stood up slowly from a coaching position

Seeing this Greg has finally got bored of it as his hands was finally free of duty hours ago

"Man! If you can't do it now then why don't you just try it tomorrow? You've been like what?  Blown away already... . . You could've atleast formulate a plan on how to defeat him next time"

"No!... . . I need to get stronger quick, to do that I need to out in some more extra effort" replied Ryuuji

Hearing that Greg finally lost it as he called James over to pick him up

Seeing that Ryuuji himself gave a sigh as he looked at the time, the moment he saw it left him in shocked as it was already pass eight

Without further ado Ryuuji instead decided to call it a day and relax for the night

************

After getting back into his own room, he immediately threw his things over at the floor as he threw his body on the soft bed, following that he gave a long sigh

First things first he needed was to cool off some steam in him, so with a quick snap he decided to take a bath

After few minutes Ryuuji managed to fill the bathtub of pure semi cold water

After taking his clothes off, Ryuuji himself got into the bathtub as he leaned back and recall the fight scenes with the swords spirit all over again like a broken stereo tape

For him bathing in cold water was satisfactory after all he was a fire type user, so the least he could do to satisfy himself was one cold bath

As he thought about how much he was at a disadvantage during each fight with it, he would then get irritated as he would dive down the water to cool his head off the bath

I'm this aspect of repetitive foreplay, Ryuuji aims to atleast achieve efficiency in battling the spirit in a relative calm manner

He would like to get used to its fighting style and at the same time he would like to try create or think up of a counter offensive against it

It took him quite a while to think it through inside the bath, so the moment he finished doing his business, he immediately took a bite and started to browse the internet as he saw the news feed from Jinwoo's profile

When he looked over it, he got a bold sense that they are quite laid-back about the matter a lot and haven't done any training to.improve himself

After that when he checked his messages he found out that Kanzaki was asking about spirit Manifestation too, this in turn shocked him as he didn't know how Kanzaki took a hold of this idea without anyone informing him

When he thought it through he must have misjudged them as care free people and this started to evaluate them more based on their contribution

Next he took a dinner down the restaurant beforw deciding to rest and hit the bed to sleep not long after that

The next day when he woke up, he was quite tired and all as he yawned before slapping himself to wake up fully from it

After doing stuff regularly, he headed straight to the training site and found himself alone in the vicinity

Since he was accustomed to train alone, Ryuuji instead didn't mind it at all as he started to concentrate even more in Hope of surpassing the spirit today

Following that not far from him Greg stood beside the tree as he observed down below, in order not to bore him to death this time, he instead brought James with him as they played chess for quite sometimes

[Brooklyn, America]

Meanwhile at a certain place in a certain time, a person arrived in America after traveling for sometime

Argie Franklin codenamed undead has arrived at America with a thought in mind as his next target place operation was located somewhere in Los Angeles

Since the travel time would be quite a hectic, he didn't mind it at all as he tries to lay low in case there were patrolling users nearby

Since he has a case in different countries about murdering countless users, he was in fact a world fugitive and the whole organization was searching for him

To completely blend into the atmosphere he wore a cap, long leather jacket, jeans, and some converse shoes

Everytime he saw authorities walking nearby, he in turn would follow people's actions by looking at his or her phone when walking down the street

He did this on many countless times as he tries to avoid being caught

His objective this time wasn't that big at all, what he needed was to find the source of power which could control life and death at it's will, if he could wield that properly, he would be unstoppable even for the top class users who are hella strong in way

In fact he knew that if he started to make a move once more, he would be on the kill lost of the the people who grouped up with, after all they did told him to cease operations

If by some chance he managed to get this power, they instead would be powerless to stop him but he was sure that the reapers would make him pay for disobeying them

With that In mind he rented a car himself as he wanted to use it to get to lose Angeles in a snap

"Alright now try to take a had of the rat Claire! But be careful" advised by the scientist who seemed to be a woman

"Alright!" Responded by the child

After waiting for a bit, the rat however stopped on its tracks as Claire carefully took a hold of it barehanded

When she touched it, she started to activate he powers as her eyes turned completely hollow back from activating it

After a while she quickly retracted her hand while releasing the rat, for quite sometime the rat was struggling on something's as it twitch then lied prone until it was confirmed to be a dead rat

After sometime passes Claire once again took a hold of it and activated her powers but this time her eyes turned milky white

Not long after the rat was brought back from the dead due to it
