Chapter 369 - A secret Home (1/2)

The hooded man stood in front of Jack in the middle of the street. He wasn't blocking his path for the street that led back into town was a wide one. But it was clear that the man was trying to stop him from moving forward.

The mansion was located on the outskirts of the town up against the indie of the wall. There weren't many houses stationed around the outskirts. The few buildings that were there were just storage units or another odd house here or there, just a little smaller than the mansion.

This meant there were only two pathways. To continue going around the outskirts and run in circles, or head towards the centre where the town was and right now that was where the man stood.

The sound of angry men's footsteps and armour clanging against them was heard. Jack didn't have time to mess around.

”I'm sorry, but if you get in my way you'll get hurt,” Jack said as he was preparing to bulldoze his way past the man.

”Now, is that the way to speak to your little brother now.” The hooded man removed his hood to reveal a short brown-haired man. He looked similar to Jack but a little older, but had the same muscular build. The only thing that was quite different was there was a fairly large scar going across his face from the top of his eye down to his lip. Something that wasn't there before.

”We don't have time to catch up right now! Follow me!” Steve said as he lifted his hood and ran towards Jack.

”Hey, wait! Shouldn't we go towards the city?” Jack asked as he noticed Steve was going around the outskirts of the town instead.

”Just listen to your big brother and follow me,” Steve commanded.

The two of them continued to run at an incredible speed. They both knew how to utilize Ki in their legs well, the only thing was so did the knights behind them. This had impressed even Jack. It was the first time he had seen an army that was actually capable of using Ki this well and keeping up with him.

”You ready brother,” Steve said with a smile as he turned around.

The next second after saying those words. Steve leapt into the air around ten meters in height, while in the air it looked like his body was about to collide with the wall but at the last second he threw out his arm and dug his fist into the wall and held on.

The knights were unable to see what had happened but Jack could. Just before touching the wall, it looked like his hand had transformed into a claw and right now using his claw-like hands he was scaling it at an incredible rate.

This caused a smile to appear on Jack's face. It seemed like his brother was a type of beast as well. Perhaps the same as him. Not only that, but his brother was able to transform only parts of his body. This was something Jack had attempted at but had failed.

Jack attempted to do the same and although he was able to lift himself up quite a distance it was nowhere near the same height as his brothers. He dug his hands into the wall, but rather than using his claws, he jammed his fingers in using the power of his ki.

It had similar results but wasn't as impressive. With the two scaling the walls at a fast speed the knights stopped just below.

”With lost them, although we might have been able to catch up to them on foot, on the wall we're no match for them.” The knight said. ”Let's report this matter back to mayor as soon as possible.”

This wasn't the only reason why they had left. There were many times the knights had chased Steve before. They could have waited for him to come down or followed him along at the side of the wall.
