Chapter 39: Gathering

Michael suddenly felt dizzy while the people around them were still processing how it resulted in that way.

With the speed of the incident, no one noticed how Michael ended up on the ground. Even the superhumans around him couldn’t follow the process.

However, looking at Michael, everyone noticed a palm mark on his face. Following that, they heard Dante say, "Ow, sorry, I thought it was a fly." There was a slight sarcastic and mockery tone in his words.

"Fly?" Someone in the crowd repeated his words in disbelief. Then they realized what happened. "Wait. Did he slap him?!"

They couldn’t believe an ordinary person could do such a thing to a superhuman.

"He did it to Michael? This guy is seeking death!"

"He’s done for!"

"Let’s see what Michael will do to them!"

However, even after a minute passed, Michael showed no reaction.

Then suddenly, they heard a snoring sound.

Zzzzzzz~~

"What?" Everyone gawked.

"Did Michael fall asleep?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"Puwahaha!" Sujin suddenly burst out laughing. "Look at this idiot! Look, Creep, this idiot sleeps here in broad daylight! Ahaha!" Sujin said while holding his stomach.

Merryl and the others looked dumbfounded. One of Michael’s companions quickly approached him and checked him.

"He’s truly asleep!" He stated.

"Ehh!" Merryl and the others exclaimed.

"How did it happen?" Merryl asked.

However, no one seemed to have an answer to her question. Everyone could not believe it. After all, it was just a slap.

"Did Michael not have enough sleep last night?"

"I don’t know. Maybe?"

When murmurs started arising from the crowd, Dante glanced at Sujin. "Let’s go, Creep," he said. It was good to go while everyone’s attention was not on them.

However, before Dante and Sujin could slip away. Merryl suddenly called out to them.

"Wait!"

When they glanced behind, they saw Merryl chasing after them. Dante waved his hand briefly and said, "If it’s about the payment, there’s no need for that." They continued moving, leaving the place.

Merryl looked like her voice was stuck in her throat when Dante said that to her. She just wanted to express her heartfelt gratitude once again and also...

"Wait..."

She tried to call them once again but they had already turned the crossing.

"I just wanted to ask your name..." Merryl muttered. Her voice merged into the noise of some passing vehicles.

The other students who had yet to leave the place wondered why there were so many vehicles passing by at once. And they seemed to be going to the same destination. When they caught a glance at the people inside those vehicles, they noticed they were rowdy people.

"Gangsters?"

"It looks like it."

"Let’s go. Let’s not get involved with those people."

Inside the leading vehicle, Karl was inside it. They got information that the person who beat up his brother, Riley, was in the high school around this area.

Reaching the Yang Elite High School, they saw a group of students. Karl stopped his car and asked them whether the student in the picture was a student of this school.

Not so many students, especially from the superhuman class, had known Dante, so some of the students he questioned gave vague answers. But Karl continued asking the other students as well. Finally, a nerd-looking student from Dante’s class confirmed it.

"Yes, that’s Dante. My classmate. Do you need something from him?" The female student said timidly. She looked a bit anxious. Although she was the class rep, she was the type of person who gets anxious when facing strangers.

’Why are there so many sedan cars right here?’ She thought.

And she was wondering why these people were looking for Dante. Speaking of Dante, the class rep was also surprised about his big change. There were even rumors going on in their class this time that Dante was good at fighting. Everyone made a big thing about it but the class rep wasn’t interested in it.

In fact, even if she was a bit curious about his change, Dante was still Dante, a classmate, nothing more and nothing less. Even at those times when most female students in their class were cold towards him, the class rep was one of the few who was impartial to his issue. Even now, she remains in equilibrium. She is not the type of person who likes to get involved in other people’s issues. She was more comfortable just staying in the middle.

For some reason, upon hearing her reply. Karl’s face secretly formed a grin. "So, you are his classmate? Hehe. Perfect then."

"Eh?"

Sometimes later,

When they arrived at the karaoke bar, the two found that the entire group was already inside. Their entry immediately attracted attention.

The organizer of this karaoke party was surprisingly Megan’s group.

It was the first time the two had been invited to this type of gathering. So when one of Megan’s friends suddenly invited them, the two were shocked.

They agreed to the invitation, but if Sujin didn’t agree, Dante would also refuse. However, since Sujin agreed, he agreed too.

Anyway, since it was a gathering organized by Megan’s group, the participants were their classy classmates.

The two felt awkward, especially because, not counting them, there were five male and five female participants. It was a pair-by-pair situation.

A while ago, before they arrived, Megan looked irritated. The male student in front of her, Classmate Harold, kept asking her different kinds of questions. It was obvious that he was interested in her.

Unfortunately, Megan didn’t enjoy talking with him.

For Harold, now that James was no longer in the picture, it was his chance to pursue her. However, despite his efforts, Megan was still indifferent to his feelings. Whenever he asked questions, she only replied with a nod and shook.

’Is her feelings with James haven’t gone yet?’ Harold thought.

But according to the report, James was taken into custody by the TriCorps. Chances that he’d return were very slim. They would probably not let him go out ever again after what happened to him. He was a dangerous creature now.

Harold secretly smirks. Without James, he was certain he had no rival with his love for Megan.

But when Dante and Sujin arrived, Harold looked dumbfounded. Megan suddenly brightened up.

"Dante, you came!" Megan smiled.
