It had been two weeks since Dylan arrived at the isolated island. And during his stay in this place, he discovered that this island was actually owned by the Black Serpent Mafia.

He was not sure how powerful the organization was exactly since he was still too young, but since he was raised in a powerful clan, he at least knew that they were a huge organization of the underworld.

Despite knowing how scary that organization was, Dylan was still able to remain calm since knew that his father was around. No matter how strong the Black Serpent Mafia agents were, he believed that they were still no match to his father.

He already hunted quite a lot of monsters in the area. They might only be one or two stars monsters at most but they were still dangerous to someone like him who was still very young. Though, they didn't really pose any threat to him since he was skilled in swordsmanship despite being young.

At the same time, he also encountered a couple of kids that were being trained as mafia agents. They were quite strong and gave him some trouble. But despite that being the case, they were still no match to him.

He managed to defeat every little agent that he encountered and he was able to grow in each other battle. He accumulated a lot of battle experiences that made him much stronger compared to his peers.

He did not kill any of them and just incapacitated their movements just like what his father had told him. But since they were future evildoers in his young eyes, he was worried that they might hunt him back once they regroup with the other young agents.

Fortunately, none of them chased him. He might not know the reason why, but he was at least thankful that none of them annoyed him after defeating a lot of them.

Grumble~!

"Urgh! I am hungry again!" muttered Dylan as he rubbed his rumbling tummy.

"Father says that the food in my spatial storage will last me for a month. But how can I survive by just eating dried meat and vegetables?" he complained grumpily.

A moment later, his nose suddenly caught a scent of meat being roasted.

"Huh? What is that? It looks like something delicious!" said Dylan as his mouth started to drool.

After that, he started following the aroma that he smelt.

*******

Meanwhile, in the direction where Dylan was heading, a kid the same age as him was currently sitting in front of a campfire while roasting the meat of a monster beast.

His clothes seemed to be in rags due to the different cuts that he had. But despite that being the case, there seemed to be no injuries visible on his body. And even if he looked like a homeless person due to his dirty clothes, his face was quite clean which showed his handsome look.

His gray hair perfectly fit the sharp and cold look of his purple eyes which was applying his handsome appearance.

Rustle!

A few moments later, he suddenly heard a slight movement from a nearby bush which made him turn his head in that direction.

At first, his gaze was sharp and threatening since he was thinking that it was someone from the mafia training camp. "These guys are truly stubborn."

His annoyance could clearly hear from the tone of his voice.

Since the start of the Hunting Test, the other kids from the camp attacked him constantly, hoping that they could eliminate him. Unfortunately, all of their attempts ended up in failure.

But to his surprise, the kid that he saw from that direction was not someone that he knew. He stayed in the training camp since he was young, so he practically knew almost everyone from there.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ (f)ir(e).nᴇt - novelenglish.net . bin

He was sure that this kid was not from the camp.

"It is not something from the camp. Is he lost?" he muttered to himself before.

He fell into deep thought for a moment before shaking his head. "It doesn't matter. I just need to eliminate him. After all, the camp will not let someone like him live anyway. His fate will either be the same as us or get killed on the spot."

"It is better to kill him painlessly than to let those bastards torture him," he added in a cold tone.

But before he could even make his move, an intense headache suddenly assaulted his head. "Urgh!"

He sat back on the tree trunk that he was sitting on before muttering saying with a hoarse tone. "What's wrong? Didn't you say that I can do everything I want as long as I take care of those kids?"

"Tsk! Tsk! You are too soft! Didn't you hear what I said? He will die in the hands of the guards anyway, isn't it better if we-…?" he was in the middle of taking when the headache became intense.

Urgh!

He started kneeling on the ground and hugged his head while saying. "I know, I know! I get it already, so stop shouting, you coward!"

Dylan, who was originally staring at the grey-haired young man, suddenly bolted out from his position and rushed towards the latter.

He was planning to help him after seeing the grey-haired kid suddenly start hugging his head. He knew that the latter might be one of the young agents that the organization was training. But his instincts, as a human and a little kid, were telling him that he needed to lend the young man a hand.

But at the same time, he suddenly halted his steps when he reached a few meters away from the grey-haired kid. It was because of the sharp glare that the latter was giving him.

"If you don't want to get hurt, then don't dare to take another step," warned the kid in a cold tone, which reminded Dylan that this kid was as dangerous as the others.

'No, he is much more dangerous compared to them,' thought Dylan to himself as he could feel that there was something wrong with this kid in front of him.

He unconsciously put his hand on the hilt of his swords as a form of reflex. All of the senses of his body were warning him to run away as soon as possible after seeing the cold look in that kid's eyes.

He might not familiar with that feeling since he was still young, but he was sure that this kid was completely different compared to the other kids that he encountered.

Seeing his actions, the grey-haired kid immediately frowned his eyes. Those actions were a clear sign of someone who wanted to fight.

Misunderstanding those actions, the grey-haired kid suddenly started laughing bitterly before saying. "I knew it!"

"Did you see it, you coward? This is how the real world is! You can't trust anyone aside from yourself," he added as if he was talking to someone.

Dylan frowned his eyebrows when he heard those words. He then turned his head left and right, trying to see if anyone was hiding in the vicinity. But after seeing that no one was there aside from the two of them, he couldn't help but become confused with those words.

'Who is he talking to?' asked Dylan to himself before hopping away from the grey-haired kid.

Meanwhile, the latter was currently in the middle of standing up. He ignored Dylan for a moment as he walked toward the tree trunk and picked up a sword that was perfectly fit for his size from there.

After that, he turned to Dylan before saying. "I don't know where you come from nor why are you here. But if you don't leave right now, then I will be forced to chase you away."

He paused for a moment as he knitted his eyebrows due to the headache that he was suffering before continuing. "You better make your decision as soon as possible while this coward inside me is holding me back."

Dylan further frowned his eyebrows when he heard those words. He couldn't understand what the other kid was saying, but based on the tone of his words, he was sure that the latter was trying to pick a fight with him.

Having that thought in mind, he unsheathed his sword and looked sharply at the grey-haired kid. "You are one of those kids from the mafia, right?"

After that, he took a battle stance where squatted his hips and held his sword horizontally in front of his chest. Facing the grey-haired sideways, he pointed his sword forward before saying. "I guess you are really all the same."

On the other hand, the grey-haired kid suddenly smirked when he saw Dylan taking his stance. "Quite a solid stance. I can tell that you are quite experienced with the sword."

After that, he also pulled his sword out from its sheath before saying. "It is rare for someone of my age to have that aura. I guess I play with you a little."

"I am Uno. Remember my name since I am going to be the one who will be second to none."
