Chapter 251 - Part 2: Darius Collision With Zack

(MC Perspective)

I woke up after a good late night sleep. After completing my morning routine, I'm having a delicious breakfast right now. During my stay in the inn, I bought some tender fresh monster's meat to eat. My cooking skill has gotten better compared to the days of my Lightning Training at Mountain Liz.

Now the atmosphere here is also different compared to the Mountain Jungle. Here I can enjoy the juicy aroma of meat without worrying about any monsters and failing sensors.

Suddenly, I had a memory flash in my eyes. Such as first training at Mountain Liz, Blood Kill test in the campus, tragic events at the auction house, later Red Stone City's lockdown, and my secret trip to Black forest Zone, Cementing my Seed Candidature in campus and Now my current situation  in Star Tower.

Thinking about it feels amazing, I even forgot about the Elite Assassin who broke into campus and tried to kill me. I let out a deep sigh as I recalled those memories. But I always considered joining the academy and getting formal training as a warrior as my first goal. Compared to my goal these events are just passing memories.

I drank a glass of water while reflecting on it. Next only stumbling block in my way is the CRIMSON HALL EXHIBITION EVENT. Earlier after having some clashing with CrimsonHall's management. Elder Thornton reminded me to be wary of these people. I have learned a lot of things in the past several months.

If they really got murderous intention towards me, I don't mind killing few people in silent. Shaking my head, I stopped overthinking. "I will decide later, if I come across someone from the Crimson Hall" while mumbling I ate the last bite of meat from my plate.

After completing the plate, I stood up from the seat. I decided to go around the Star Tower and find a suitable training room. I hope they will allow me. Before leaving I checked my handsomeness in front of the mirror. I changed a lot compared to my past non-experienced look. Those days I used to train with wooden sticks at an orphanage.

Thinking about orphanages, it reminded me of my birth parents. I usually don't want to recall it. It will ruin the atmosphere around me. Even Granny Park used to urge me to move forward. "What kind of People were my Parents?" I uttered in sadness.

When I think about it, Granny told me that both of my parents were hunters. And they died due to a monster invasion that occurred at Zetros Town. I need to visit that place when I have some free time in my hands. After clearing my thoughts, I left the guest house towards the meeting hall.

I know that the Green Star Tower is off-limits. Other than the Star Tower officials and participants no one can enter. That is why I'm heading towards the meeting hall. This wouldn't have happened if the admin had explained everything. "If there is no way, I'll ask him personally "I said to myself.

Sometime later,

I reached the meeting hall area after a few minutes. I saw the area was more crowded than usual. People were wandering here and there, some were chatting with their team. Only a few people appear to be waiting for their turn to participate in the challenge.

Since there's only a few days left for the end of the competition, the number of participants right now is left with the last few batches.

But there is no excitement whatsoever in their expression. The current turmoil in the city must have had some impact on them. I bet if the City lord and Star Tower Management give some options to them to exit the city, these people will leave right away.

While shaking my head, I slowly walked near the meeting hall while glancing at the nearby room. Any of them could be some training room. So I begin to check each one of them. Soon, my strange actions attracted so many gazes.

Finally someone from the crowd recognized Zack's face at first glance. He is none other than a brute warrior from the second batch. Earlier, he saw Zack started to clear levels with his own eyes. Zack clearing speed of the levels had a huge impact on him. Which left a deep impression in his heart. He said to his team mate in a hushed tone, "Look at there, He is Zack Lockwood, No.1 Rank Holder."

When he dropped this bombshell everyone was shocked. They turned their gazes towards Zack immediately. By looking at Zack's actions everyone had one simple question in their mind, "What is he doing here?"

Slowly everyone near the meeting hall started to recognize his face. Suddenly someone pointed at Zack from the crowd, "Hey isn't he Zack Lockwood?"

"Hiss!" the crowd looked baffled.

Though it's not exaggerated as much due to the current depressing atmosphere. Still people find it very surprising to see his presence here.

Alternatively,

I halted my footsteps when I heard my name. "Finally someone uh!" I uttered. I was wondering why no one recognized me so far. I'm glad that someone did it. Okay now, what I have to tell these people, I sighed.

Just as I was walking away from here,

"Zack Lockwood!"

Someone called out loud my name again. I felt irritated hearing that, so I turned around and spotted the person and asked, "What? Do you need something?"

The other hand the person is none other than Darius Case from the Crimson Hall.

Darius Case is thrilled to see the person here. Though there were many reasons for it including his organization's missions. Yet he is mainly interested in Star Tower's top floors.

When he heard Zack's question, he answered, "What is it in the 19th Floor?"

The sudden interaction between these two attracted everyone's attention. When the crowd heard Darius's question. A huge curiosity rose in their heart. They perked up their ears to listen to Zack's answer.

Alternatively,

"This fellow" I'm surprised by hearing his sudden question. For a moment the memory of a giant sea monster flashes before my eyes. They completely trampled on me. Those unknown beasts were really terrific opponents.

Then I looked straight into his eyes and replied, "Something Horrible"
