Chapter 145

Chairman Renato, the Chairman of the PHA. He was the person that Mikael kicked outside a tall building eight years ago. 

Right now, Chairman was talking to Jose and discussing the national team. Chairman nodded when he read all of their improvements. Adding Mikael to their lineup caused a change. 

The members were now motivated to become stronger, together with Mikael and Klein they trained to hone their Skills. They felt embarrassed that's why they wanted to prove themselves. 

He saw the footage of the members lying on the ground because Klein's Wolf devastated them… Anyway, they were training. 

Chairman Renato coughed and signaled Jose to speak. Jose was now accustomed to his work, his memorization greatly increased after he became a Hunter. He was proud to say that he's not illiterate anymore!! He was happy about his changes, even his twelve children were happy when they found that their father could now read. They celebrate because of that and cried in happiness.

Jose opened his mouth and speak. 

"Chairman, three weeks passed and we can see that they're now stronger…"

Jose said while they were looking at the video of the members screaming because a wolf slashed them, anyway they could conclude that the national team was getting stronger. When they started this training, the members could be described as small children fighting an adult man, it was the perfect analogy. However, this time, they were now ten years old kid fighting an adult man... They improved.

They always lose when they fought Klein but it was still better compared to their last week's performance. 

They could hurt the wolf now... a little bit, it was still an improvement. 

"Where's Mikael? I'm thinking of making him the Captain of the national team."

Chairman asked.

"He's having a sparring with Rena--"

*Boom!!!*

The strong sound shook the place. It seemed like the two Hunters were having a good time. This kind of shaking would only happen if two strong Hunters fight. Chairman Renato stood up, he wanted to see their fight. 

As a Hunter who could control the earth, he flicked his fingers and the building was reconstructed. A slightly rippled disturb the people but it quickly disappeared. 

Now, the Chairman's room was beside the training ground. Jose grimaced and sweat, he was envious of the Chairman's ability. It's convenient compared to his Skill. He used his Skill and changed the location of his room.

They opened the wall and the Chairman came in. He saw a small tornado encircling the platform. On the other side of it, he saw a man groaning. Mikael's head was bleeding and he was unconscious. 

He lost, Rena's Skill was more powerful. He didn't even reach her, the strong wind blocked him from getting close. With just a wave of Rena's hand, a strong gust of wind hit Mikael and he crashed to the wall.

The Chairman grinned, he was now sure that Mikael was still a monster. He scanned the surroundings and he saw Lightning crackling inside. He may lose in strength, power, and level but his talent was enough to compensate for it. 

The wind dispersed and he saw that Rena received a small wound on her shoulder. He smirked and laughed. He started to tease the woman.

"Kuhaha! I see, so the Wind Blade can still be injured."

He teased.

"Shut up, old man!! Hmmp! He just got lucky!! "

Rena's face was red, she couldn't believe that at that last moment, a small needle of lightning would penetrate her Wind Barrier. She stomped her feet and left the training ground. She was angry and humiliated, she was confident of her power but now, she felt that Mikael would return to the top again. 

The Chairman walked to Mikael and he saw that he was fine, his body healed on itself. 

"Ah? Did Mikael receive a self-healing Skill? Maybe he has an Item that can heal himself…"

The Chairman felt strange but he let it be. Self-healing was normal at this time 

He kicked Mikael to wake him. Mikael grunted and he opened his eyes. He saw Chairman Renato in his front. He was dizzy, he remembered that he fought Rena and he flew to the wall. 

"What happened? Where's Rena?"

Jose shrugged while Chairman laughed with a cackling. 

"Kuhahaha, I guess you don't know what happened."

He helped Mikael to stand and tapped his shoulder. He grinned, he knew that Mikael was not an ordinary person. 

"Mikael congratulations, you win!"

"Huh? What are you talking about? I'm the one who lost!"

The Chairman held his stomach and laughed. It was the first time that he saw Rena having a red face like that after many years and Mikael was the reason of it. 

"Man, with your level you should've died. I mean even penetrating the barrier should be impossible with your current level. Level 500 was the turning point of every Hunter. Their powers were multiplied and the lower Hunter couldn't hurt them. However, you stabbed her shoulder, it's a feat that no other Hunters can do. And the attack that you received, I remember that Rena killed four Hunters using that. It's a miracle that you live."

Jose smiled and informed him. 

Mikael was struck when he found that Rena was trying to kill him. 

"What!? She killed four Hunters using that!?"

He remembered how that attacked cracked his bones, right now, the pain was still lingering. 

"Yes, she killed four level 450's using that, which means that you're stronger than four level 450's combine."

Jose explained.

"Ptui!!… Mm? Did you say something? "

Mikael spat some blood, he tilted his head. He didn't hear what Jose said because his hearing was still clogged. 

Jose, the father of twelve children laughed, Mikael was the type that didn't care about anything. He only cared about the people important to him. 

As Mikael and Klein's friend, Jose was happy that he's alive. He even saw that Klein's behavior changing because his brother was now awake.

Jose knew that Klein was elated that his brother was with him. He was happy for them. This is better compared to the time when Klein fought on his own.

Jose was sad when he remembered the face of depressed Klein, at that time, he was famous for being a rabid dog because he would bite any opponents that were hostile to him. He even remembered how Klein almost died when dozens of Hunters ambushed him but it was all in the past. 

He was glad that the two brothers are now together. 

-Mikael vs. Rena, our protagonist won(?)
