Hajime:Beginning of a new life
Chapter 22: Power Gap
"Light poles!"Hajime snores,he kicks and turns
"Mhm he’s really enjoying his beauty sleep." Aurora smiled then looked out the window then looked at Hajime
"Old man I don’t understand?..." Hajime was talking in his sleep
It triggered Aurora curiosity
"What does he not understand?" Aurora wondered with smile on her face feeling the edge to know what happening
"The...the...the!"Hajime kept on repeating the same words which did satisfy Aurora’s curiosity
He twists and continued snoring
"The!"Aurora
"What!"Aurora
"Should I wake this loser up!"Aurora wondered then she smirked the solution had already popped into her head
"Nah when he sleeps,he is practically dead." Aurora realized it was pointless to try and wake him up
After a hour or so Hajime woke up,he shooked his head
"What a dream!"
"Sensei I miss you training me especially since we never trained that long."Hajime looked out the window
"If only you were here you would do whatever you did to my grimoire when you were training me."
The door opened
"Hajime after you are done eating I want you to go buy some groceries."Aurora was standing on the door drinking tea
Hajime got out of bed tired
He took his clothes he wore while leaving the room
"Okay!" with enthusiasm
He was very happy to flex his new clothes
"Going won’t just make me look cool it’ll make me forget about old man."Hajime laughed and continued
Hajime ran down the stairs
"The money!"
Aurora came down following behind him
"Okay what’s with the energy."Aurora wondered if it’s about the trip or the clothes
"Don’t come back late!"Aurora was concerned especially after all the energy Hajime showcased
"Oh,nothing."Hajime said this with a weird grin
She gave him the list of the things she wants and the money then Hajime was ready to get going
Hajime got out of the house running really quick
"Okay I’m leaving!"Hajime ran while waving at Aurora the sniw was blowing hard
His voice echoed
"Huh,He didn’t even eat his breakfast."Aurora was worried
Hajime got there eventually
While strolling
"Get to working you slaves!"
The slave owner was beating the demi-Humans or beast humans
A female demi-Human fell in front of Hajime and the slave owner whipped her
"AAHH!" She cried in silence before Hajime
"Hey stop that you can’t just!...,just!"Hajime felt like the slave owner was over working them.
"Shut up!,you don’t know how much I paid for them!" The slave owner yelled at Hajime
"I don’t care!"Hajime raisedhis voice to him
"Do you know who I am?"The slave owner yelled back at Hajime while getting closer
"I’m Vades the A rank adventurer!" Vadas grinned while petting himself on the chest
"And I couldn’t care less!"Hajime said these words whith so much anger in his eyes
"You can’t just buy someone!"Hajime tried to reason with Vadas
"Actually I can,it’s perfectly legal for a adventurer to have a slave!" Vadas looked at Hajime with a smirk
"You can’t just treat them like tools their supposed to help you,not do all your work!"Hajime clenched his fists
"Notice he is to strong for you."Ai
"Level."Ai
"Speed."Ai
"Power."Ai
"Skill."Ai
"He is A rank for a reason."Ai 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
"Well it’s time you move kid!" Vadas pushed him aside
"Yeah you better move he gets really angry when you don’t listen to him!"
"No I want to do what...I couldn’t do in my past life!"
He moved at ×10 the speed of sound to his side
"What he is just to fast!"
Hajime felt like time was stoping, Vadas’s punch was too slow he punched Hajime soo fast he couldn’t react
"He was too fast I just remembered how he looked when he was about to punch me!"Hajime thought
"He looked like a creature that’s not human so this is the power gap between us!"
After few minutes that’s when his body caught up to the pain
"AAHH!"Hajime screamed
"DAMMIT!"Hajime
His eyes rolled back from the pain
"Come back when you are stronger!"
"Come back stronger to act hero!" Vadas laughed while leaving
Hajime was out cold on the building that he brought down when he got punched
People avoided him when he was lying lifeless,after a while Hajime woke up
He bought the groceries and went home
"Knock!,knock!"
Aurora opened the door
"I’m home."Hajime smiled when he saw her
Aurora was shocked and pissed
"What!...happened to you!...and who did this to you!"Aurora
"I want you to train me!"Hajime looked at her with determination
