Chapter 265 - 265: Glutinous Master (1/2)

”Not a single hit on the face this time.” Lillie praised as she gently pushed a cold compress at the blue and dark purple patch-like bruise swelling on his arm.

Ethan monotonously replied, ”Thanks. I'm glad you find that impressive.”

”Do you still have a lot to do at Hong Long?”

”Sadly, yes.” He sighed. ”But it'll be the last ones, I believe. I entrusted the rest to Secretary Yu.”

Death entered the gym again after changing from his sweaty clothes. He hated to admit it, but his fight with Ethan today had been rather interesting and exciting. His Junior Sister wasn't lying when she said that Ethan was a quick learner.

His fighting style from before does contain fluidity, but it relies more on brute strength, and it was a bit daring.

”Climbing through the ranks as one of the Leaders is no easy feat. There must be someone who taught you.” Death asked as he approached the two by the bench.

”I learn some martial arts from the tutors my dad hired.”

”Those kind of tutors wouldn't teach you much.” Lillie's curiosity also piqued from Death inquiry. ”I doubt they would acquaint their students the drills to climb the ranks in the Underworld.”

”You're right. But what I learned from those tutors had been my foundation.” Ethan elucidates. ”When I started forming my group, we came across a guy who beat all of us in just a second. I asked him to train us, he agreed.”

”Just like that?” Lillie found that hard to believe.

Ethan nodded but then added, ”Well...I pestered him until he got annoyed and agreed.”

”That's more believable.” Death blurted, snorting.

”Did he know who you were?” Lillie asked.

”With his capabilities and my lack of experience, I'm not surprised if he did.”

”Who was he?” If this person was Ethan's master, he should be a big-shot, so Death might know him too.

”He told us to call him Mochi.”

”...”

”...”

”Apparently, he really love those sweets.” He shrugged indifferently.
