"By the way, just a different topic, why aren't you doing those blocking schemes you did in the past? I kind of missed it." Roger naturally said, with the deliberate intention of lessening the depressing wind. 

Well, Roger noticed that Luna was saddened by the topic of popularity. It was as if it were required in her family, and he didn't want to pry into that matter. So, to change the subject, he asked what was going through his mind that made him think of Luna.

Apart from being Kyla's previous friend, Roger knows Luna for being persistent in blocking his way with some absurd questions. It only lasted for a few days a month ago, but now that it has come to this opportunity, he at least wanted to know.

Truth be told, Roger kind of forgot some common events to teenagers. After all, Roger indulged himself in negotiations and meetings with powerful people, not about being romantic.

Well, he longed for a romantic relationship, but he couldn't feel like rushing into it.

"Eh?" When Luna stuttered, Roger heard how she became embarrassed, he could only clear his throat.

"Was that a sensitive question? I am kind of insensitive in these matters. I am sorry." Roger said that again made Luna flustered.

Luna faced him immediately and swayed her hands in the air at just the level of her chest. "No, I just didn't expect to hear that question. I thought that you were bothered by it, so..."

Roger smiled and then looked outside of the car. 

"It is true that I was bothered, but thinking about it, I think that I was being naive. I haven't asked any serious questions. Do you like me? "

With that sudden question, the person who was only listening to them—the driver snorted, suppressing his surprise. 

she asked reluctantly. And as she looked at Roger's face, she could only feel embarrassment.

"W-Was I that bold?" she asked reluctantly. After all, she knew that it was not ladylike to be so bold with someone. She undoubtedly thought that it wouldn't be obvious that she liked Roger, but only asked him a few questions about him. However, it turned out that Roger had naturally noticed it. She wasn't mentally prepared.

"I guess you were." But as he was about to continue his words, they finally reached the school, and to end the conversation, Roger said, "Just focus on your goals first. If ever we have a chance to talk genuinely, let's choose the right place and time." 

Then he finally left the car and walked his way to his room.

The truth is that Roger isn't in fact uninterested when it comes to romantic things. He does think of them as crucial parts of life. However, he knows when to place them into importance. 

To be precise, he thinks that there will be a proper time for it. Not being peacher, but just being honest with himself, he appreciates Luna's sincere feelings. Before, he merely thought that it was a crush or admiration of him. But as he looked at Luna's qualities, she seemed mature enough to think about it.

"But yeah, this is not the right time to entertain love," Roger mumbled, then arrived at their room.

As soon as he entered, everyone became silent again, and it was as usual. He merely neglected it, and as he looked at Taylor's table, he barely let out a sigh.

'Taylor is already dead. But why does it feel like he left something in my soul? Perhaps my first life memories...?'

There was a white flower on Taylor's table. Apparently, he was killed by some gangsters, and no one was surprised because Taylor was always trying hard to be part of a gang. 

But the truth in that is that Roger ordered someone to kill Taylor for good. After all, Roger thinks that unnecessary pity and forgiveness should not be dragged through the mud.

Roger didn't forgive Taylor; he only became heedless of his tenacity. But his patience has decreased in pieces, and just as he thinks of possible things that he can do, he is afraid that a time might come when he will become too painful in the ass.

Being bothersome once could be ignored, but if it happens always as if fear isn't part of their vocabulary, they should be plucked out.

And Roger thinks that he has the right to do so. Forget about living in peace, he should recognize that this world also has the "survival of the fittest" idea. 

Apart from gangs, Awakens are higher than average humans. And also, ranks are set by their standards, so it is common that there is superiority in these cases. The higher the rank, the more power you have.

It is normal—standards. But what could he possibly do if he is still unaware of the standard? Well, he should grasp it or create it by himself. His life back in Kluma and those experiences will be useless if he tries to eradicate it in his nature.

Even in different environments, it is to adapt to the environment rather than the other way around. So, in this case, since he couldn't manage things anymore to his liking, should he let his nature destroy the illusion of peace in this world?

He could be at the top if he wanted to be. He had searched for things about power standards and their stats. Rumors were on the internet, and Roger had never discovered someone who had maxed their status.

He is at least the first one, to his knowledge.

However, there is something that he will always remember. Even if you call yourself omnipotent, don't underestimate people. At all times, don't play with uncertain people—uncertain to the point of if he doesn't know who they are and what their capabilities are.

In Mighty's case, Roger didn't feel any strange energy from him at first. It was only the scale that he used every time, and it was their fighting spirit.

Fighting spirit is always present in all people. Apart from killing intent, there is a way to scale a person's strength that doesn't need to see their energy, and it is their presence.

In the Red Bulls, Mighty has the strongest presence, and thus, he thinks he is the strongest of them all since it is not always that whoever has the strongest energy has the strongest capabilities. They are those who have the knowledge to fight and have the foundation.

"Roger, I heard Yuna had given you a ride." Roger heard Yuno talking, thus making him shift his attention to him. 

Roger raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why? Does it bother you?"

"Of course, it bothers me!" Yuno retorted immediately, which made Roger scoff.

"Hmm... an overprotective brother. I can relate to you, so don't worry. I won't court your sister, just a note to you. I have some significant things to do rather than fall in love. Instead, let's talk about important things."

"..." Yuno just looked at Roger with doubtful eyes, but when he had made sure he had no interest in his sister, he responded.

"What about it?"

Sitting on the ground on the rooftop, Roger looked at the sky with a smile, being sentimental about what he was thinking. And just as Yuno noticed it, he let out a sigh.

"What's wrong with you?" he aggressively asked.

"I am thinking of a greater future. I am thinking of creating a guild. Should you give me advice?"

When Roger said it as if it was a simple thing, Yuno was dumbfounded and afterward blocked Roger's idea.

"Guild? You didn't even register as a hunter or even become a civil servant."

"I don't care. I want to create one but still don't want to be a civil servant." Roger said that made Yuno more confused.

"Why? Tell me, why do you want to build a guild?"

"Because I wanted to, didn't I already tell you? Because I wanted to create one. And also, for personal reasons and not only about my family." Roger continued, and that literally perplexed Yuno.

"I can't understand you. I am recruiting you to join our guild, but you don't want to. Instead, you want to create your own guild? Are you crazy?"

Roger just scoffed at how Yuno wanted to make his idea miserable and absurd. But just as he stood up, he looked at Yuno with a smirk on his face.

"Let me tell you what's crazy: I manage 30 Awakens in the District Wish, and all of them range from E rank to C rank. Can you imagine how firm my guild would be with that manpower?"

And as Yuno heard it, at first, he thought it was only a joke.

"30 people... it is impossible to have that many Awakens in one place," he said, but when later on, he remembered about the sudden appearance of 30 Awakens that registered at the same time weeks ago, he looked at Roger with a surprised expression.

"Don't tell me..."

"Yup. Those mysterious people, they are my people. You didn't even register as a hunter or even become a civil servant. I know people are cunning and will want to covet things and own them. However, I am confident in this one. Help me create my guild. You have the knowledge, right?"

"Roger..." Yuno was agape. "If you think that way, you will create plenty of enemies in the future."

Roger just smirked at hearing Yuno's notion. He is aware of it, and now that he has learned a low-key life isn't the best for him, there's no stopping and going back.

"I'm going seeking a real life now, Yuno."
