The Philippine national team was eliminated, they lost in the semifinals.

…

Christian Rothschild.

He was the eldest son of a prominent family. He was smart, talented, and strong, a fitted person to lead their family. Still, one thing or the greatest thing that his family wanted from him was perfection. They wanted a perfect man and Christian was close of reaching that. Although, all of the people understood that there's no such a thing as perfect. 

Christian was put in the military when he was 18, he was trained and sharpened there. He experienced wars in different countries. While he was in the military, he saw the real faces of the people. In that time, Christian found how people think and he used this realization in business which made him a billionaire without using the power of his family. 

As time passed, Christian could easily read the mind of the person in front of him. His business rival nor his business partner, he knew how their minds work. Christian didn't become a perfect human but he did surpass them in other aspects.

Right now, he was staring at the young man who was asking to have a meeting with him. They were in a restaurant but they were the only people inside, Christian bought the restaurant yesterday just for this meeting. 

"And? Colt, how's mom?"

Christian cut the steak and ate it in his mouth. The steak was from a dark-wing bull, it was great meat, much greater than a wagyu beef. But for Christian the taste was so-so, he savored more delicious food than this.

"Brother, this is not about them. You promised me one thing."

Christian paused his hands, he tilted his head trying to remember what he meant. Colt was staring at him, clenching the utensils in his hand, he was waiting for his reaction.

"Ah, you mean that time? The five years ago promise?"

Colt nodded, he was relieved when he realized that Christian still remembered it.

"You promised that you will talk to me if I became stronger. You said that if I hit you at least once, you will listen to my request."

"Yes, I did promise that."

Christian put down his utensils, it seemed like his brother wanted to do it now, he sighed. He took out his necktie and coat.

"Kids this day are really active and always excited. Perhaps they believe that they can do anything as long as they have the motivation and willpower."

He chuckled and glanced at him, his eyes gleamed as he released his power.

"Then let's start."

"Kuck!"

The pressure was put over Colt, he almost kneeled, he groaned as he bent his body. The force cracked the chair that he was sitting on. Christian glared at his younger brother, he didn't give any mercy and he started with a bang.

Colt's disposition turned pale, he looked up and saw his brother smirking. The young man became enraged, he cast his Skill, Counter!

The invisible pressure returned to Christian but he extended his hand and waved it. The pressure vanished and the gravity became normal. 

"Your Skill has a fatal weakness. You can't fight if the enemy don't attack you first. It was good that nobody knew the essence of your Skill when you fought in the tournament."

Colt gritted his teeth, all that he said was true. Colt couldn't counter an attack if there was no attack in the first place. He could only activate his Skill if someone attacked him. That's why right now, he was eager to have a Skill that could make him attack first. He had three Skills and he hoped that his fourth would be an attack one. Truth be told, he was training his Skill to accomplish that. Together with the three Evolution Stones that he got, Colt was doing his best to achieve powerful Skills.

"Colt, let's be real, the era is changing. Or should I say that it already changed?"

Christian spoke, he tilted his head and began thinking.

Colt stood up and tried to punch him but Christian evaded his fist, he held his neck and pushed him down to the ground. Colt was pinned down as he coughed and Christian bent his shoulder, a crack sound could be heard. Colt cried, his shoulder was dislocated. He grunted and glared at his brother, he was angry at the same time not. He understood that his brother had the most painful feelings right now. 

"Colt remember when I said that I can read people's minds."

Colt, the younger brother, held his shoulder as he gritted his teeth in pain, his saliva dripped out. He wanted to summon a healing potion but he didn't want to show any weakness in front of his brother. 

"You see, in my whole life, there's only one man that I can't understand no matter how many times I try to talk to him. My business sense is not working at him."

Christian continued.

"Kyle Rockwell, that man had a void in his heart. Nope, he didn't have a  heart, and even now, he's still a mystery... I thought he's the only one that I can't understand. Haha, but looks like I'm wrong."

Christian grabbed the wine. Colt wriggled in pain touching his shoulder.

"There's a man who I met seven years ago. He's easy to read, he was an open book, all he wanted was to protect his loved ones… but that man keeps destroying his image in front of me. I thought he would be nothing as time passed, but sometimes your prediction will be wrong. Hey Colt, I saved many people but there's still something that bugs me. Why do I feel like saving your loved ones is better than saving strangers. Ah, don't mind me, I already know the reason anyway."

Christian was honest. The feelings of saving his family were so much heavy if you compare it to the gratitude that the people gave to him. Furthermore, he witnessed how Mikael became stronger as he surpassed his limits because of his family, he wanted to protect them. 

"Colt, I'm not stopping you from being a Hunter, however, I recommend you to stay away from any dangerous situations… In fact, right now, I'm telling you to leave this country. I don't know why but Kyle is acting odd again."

Christian said to his brother. He saw many deaths, he saw many misfortunes. Being a Hunter is not easy, and as a big brother, he didn't want Colt to be caught in this. 

"Brother…"

Colt grimaced in pain, both physical and emotional. He heard and saw how many times his brother almost died. 

"I understand that you want to help me but no thanks, I'm not accepting it."

(I still didn't give any deeper dive into Christian's character,  so I decided to do it now.)
