Chapter 148 The weight of power
After coming back from their hunt, Jake and his friends decided it was time for them to rest so they headed back to the shelter which was just a huge hanger like building with a passcode machine off to the side.
They had inputted the code given to them by Kron and they all went inside. But instead of resting, they were met with antagonizing people from the third year students.
They kept taunting them about hiding and cowering therefore not hunting any beasts. Peter in annoyance because of this, walked up to them and they begun fighting toe to toe.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
That was when one of the student charged right at Peter with his fist full of tremendous amount of Qi therefore aiming to finish Peter off with one huge strike.
Seeing that Peter's life was in danger, Jake didn't think twice as he kicked off from where he was sitting then activated {Step shift} twice to propel him further to Peter's position.
He got to Peter's position and quickly caught the student's hand effortlessly and not even moving an inch from where he was.
Then angrily, Jake looked at the student.
"What...were you... trying to... do?" Jake asked as his voice was shaking in anger.
That was when he heard the order given to the remaining students by Jeremy.
"What are you doing?" Jeremy shouted in annoyance. "Get rid of him! All of you." Jeremy shouted at those beside him.
And then five of the students standing beside Jeremy charged at Jake with full speed and their weapon drawn out.
One of them had quickly gotten in front of Jake and swung his sword but Jake didn't fret as he activated {Stun strike} keeping the student stunned and unable to move an inch.
Then Jake released the student he was holding onto and readied his hand, pulled it back quickly and swung it forward and in less than a second before the student could do anything, he was hit and sent crashing into the frozen student and together, they had slammed their selves on the metallic wall.
Jake had been mindful of reducing his strength. He didn't want any accidental killings on his hand currently so he pulled back his strength. But it didn't matter as Jake was strong enough to still send them flying full force.
The whole room was stunned to silence at Jake's incredible display of strength and they were left murmuring at this. Even Jeremy couldn't say anything as he was also stunned.
"Well apparently, our pal here didn't and now, he just got more reason to make him pay after what they were about to do to Peter." Sophia said.
Jeremy remembering what happened, was now slowly moving back then he saw Jake raise hand up in a fist shape.
Seeing that, Jeremy looked at where his friends were and could see them laying cold on the floor.
Within a blink of an eye, a punch landed on Jeremy's nose cracking it and also sending him crashing to the ground.
"How does it feel knowing that someone is more powerful than you?" Jake asked as he was slowly making his way towards Jeremy.
He made sure he pulled back his strength by 90 percent so he could torture Jeremy more.
Jake was sick and tired of letting everything and everybody take or harm those he cared about. He was sick of people taking him for granted and now, he had the power to do whatever he wanted.
So enough of hiding, Jake wasn't scared of anybody again and that's why he acted.
Standing in front of Jeremy, Jake lifted his foot up and was about to stomp on him while Jeremy closed his eyes. As Jake's foot was heading towards Jeremy, a loud booming voice sounded in the shelter.
"Stop!" Kron shouted as he made his way to where Jake was and laid his hand on Jake's shoulder.
Seeking the General, Jake moved away and looked at Jeremy.
"I have marked your face so watch your back." Jake said as he left to head where his friends were.
Kron had been in the shelter the whole time and he saw everything that happened from start to finish. Seeing everything, Kron had one thought on his mind.
