[Money in your account: 9,045,000,000¥]

Staring wide-eyed at my laptop screen, I stared at my bank balance as I processed the number in front of me.

9 Billion... That fight made me 9 billion?! That was enough money for my whole life! I could retire and support at least 4 generations of my family with all that money!

I felt my hands tremble, a nervous sigh escaping my lips as I carefully closed the lid of the notebook.

"And I thought 1 million yen was a lot." I said.

A day has passed since I gave up the position of fighter representing Tomari, the woman, amazingly enough, leaving the problems I would have to deal with due to the breach of contract aside. This made me very happy, because since it was a company, I would probably pay a fine in the millions, and that would be annoying.

Mokichi informed me that my training would begin in 2 weeks, which meant that I would have time to prepare for what Agito had prepared for me.

Mentioning him, the man had not made much contact since the day I agreed to receive his mentorship. If I had to make a guess, I would say that he was talking to Metsudo about me, after all, I could now be considered his apprentice...

The apprentice of the Fangs of Metsudo... Really, it's a cool title.

Not to disparage Mokichi, for while the master helped me improve greatly, and Baritsu was a magnificent martial art, Agito was simply a monster, almost like an anomaly. He was on a completely different level.

Looking at the clock on the wall, I saw that it was already seven o'clock in the morning, a tired sigh escaping my lips as I quickly put on my school uniform.

Going to school was something that was already getting on my nerves. I already knew practically all the content taught, and I was just waiting for my assessment test application to be approved so that I could prove that I was fit enough to finish high school early. But until then, I was forced to continue attending school, which frustrated me.

"What a waste of time."

Leaving my house, I soon arrived at my school with my new speed, stopping in front of the gate and walking calmly.

'I should take some of that money and invest in academies in other areas.... Maybe one in Tokyo?'

Thinking about what to do with the money, I entered the school along with other students, walking toward my classroom, keeping my attention around just enough so that I wouldn't bump into someone.

"Are you Yuji Shinakawa?" Suddenly, a voice asked, my attention taken to the person responsible for it, turning to see a normal-looking teacher a few feet down the hall. "Your assessment test has arrived, you must go to the principal's office to take it."

My eyes sparkled with joy, and completely ignoring the teacher, I exploded toward the principal's office, leaving a mark of my shoe on the hallway floor.

.

As I had said, I knew everything the school was teaching me, and this was proven when I got an A on the assessment test, shocking the principal and the teachers who marked my test. I could expect my high school leaving certificate in a few weeks, since I would not have a ceremony.

"I'm finally free of that." With a satisfied smile, I let my body fall onto my bed as I immediately relaxed, enjoying the sense of accomplishment I was feeling.

'I am walking slowly, but soon I will become strong enough.'

Blocking a punch from Mokichi, I rotated my palm and deflected the trajectory of his blow to the ground, quickly grabbing his shoulder and sending a knee into his face.

Boom!

Before the blow connected, he placed his palm in front of his face, parrying much of the damage from the attack, but the force behind the blow still enough to push him backwards.

"You've gotten much better." He spoke, running his hand over his chin from the knee strike.

"I learned from the best." I smiled at him, the man reciprocating with a proud smile.

It's been 4 days since I officially graduated from high school, and I've been training with Mokichi like crazy. With my money, I have invested 1 billion dollars in opening another academy in central Tokyo, of course, all in Osanai's name, and since I knew he couldn't manage it all due to his lack of intelligence, I hired some businessmen to take care of the administrative affairs.

My money was rising fast, especially after I started selling some stocks that I had bought. It didn't take long for me to recover the money I had invested.

"Yuji!"

Before I could react, I felt something land on my back, two arms wrapping around my chest, me quickly realizing who it was.

"Elena..." I spoke, a nervous smile on my lips as the girl let go of me and walked away with a happy smile on her face.

After I recovered, Elena became even more comfortable around me, not being shy about hugging me as if we were childhood friends. She became a little clingy, but I wouldn't complain about that, because it didn't really bother me.

But there was one small detail that I always forgot when she took me in her arms.

"Elena, we are training now, you can talk to him later."

I felt a murderous intent being completely directed at me, my eyes moving slowly to land on Mokichi, who had a serene smile on his face.

Damn...

"Oh, sorry, Yuji! I'll come talk later!" In her great mood, the girl almost skipped out of the training room as she waved goodbye.

"Wait, Elena-" I tried to stop her from leaving, only for a hand to land on my shoulder and I turned to see a Mokichi staring at me with his eyes slightly open.

"Today you will learn how to fall on the floor properly." He spoke, his tone giving me chills.

"Master, I have already learned that..." I tried to retort, hoping that my soul would be spared.

"Let's review what you've learned, then."

What a cruel world.

.

Lying on the mat while breathing heavily, I stared at the ceiling for a long time. Soon I would be starting my training, and I could expect it would not be easy, considering that my mentor would be Kanoh Agito. Fighting wild animals, being thrown into a desert, placed in a snake's nest, all of this could easily become reality considering who Kanoh was, at least considering what little I remembered of his personality from the anime and a little from the manga.

Sighing, I sat up, my eyes resting on my palms.

But I can't complain, I asked for it, after all. People like Ohma Tokita didn't get so strong by depending on a system, they did it entirely through training, giving their blood for it.

If I didn't become strong through my own efforts, I would never really be strong.

So I will accept whatever is thrown at me. It can be wolves, or even lions, I will face them with open arms.

If it meant that I would become stronger, so be it.
