Chapter 158: 158: Eccentric
The team five was now on their way to seal the breach of the wall. The five are walking side by side with Caleb positioned in the middle. It was inconceivable, but puberty hit him very hard and his appearance took it personally! Well, in a positive way. Although he still has a lithe figure due to his frame. His back was broader now along with the toned V shape that hides underneath the stack of scout clothes he was wearing.
His face also experiences great change. If, when he first woke up, he had a slightly developed jaw. His maxilla had a forward growth, and his jaw became sharp enough to cut an apple! Coupled with high-set cheekbones, and slightly hollow cheeks. This combination of his features made him quite majestic due to the angular face that it gave him.
He doesn't know why he experienced such a change. It can only be said that he has a great gene and had an excellent facial bone structure in the first place. It was just unfortunately covered by face fat that made his face look puffy. Now, however, with constant intense physical training. With the reduction of his body fat. The facial features were emphasized. Not only that, it was safe to say that puberty was also a huge factor!
As for his eyes, he has hooded, deep-set ones. It means his upper eyelids look non-existent, and he has a positive cantal tilt.
Overall, thanks to his ideal compact mid-face, full lips, and ideal brow ridge. He looks like a lady killer! His eyes were also more mature and more determined after constant battles. The only problem with his appearance was his skin which was still as pale as a sheet of paper to the point that he made him wonder sometimes if he actually had leukemia.
Then, on his left, Rozho was looking ahead attentively. If not for knowing the latter's horrible sense of direction, Caleb would not understand what he was doing. Yes... Rozho was trying to memorize the paths and establish a landmark. Unfortunately, he had been doing it for his entire life, to no avail. He even told him once that he had got lost in their own house.
Well, kidding aside. On his right, it was the new face of the team. One who also has his quirk and by far, the most paranoid person that Caleb had known in his damn entire life. Well, two lives actually. No... A damn hundred...
"What should we do? Guys, please, you have to take care of my body and bury me too, somewhere secluded, or else thieves will steal my coffin for money."
"This is bad! We will all gonna die! What if the item that we will use to seal the wall doesn't work? What if a tier 5 Apokalip was hiding? What if Shu commands an entire army of Apokalipss? We are dead!! I don't wanna die! I don't wanna die!"
"Guys, we should run while it wasn't too late yet. I feel uneasy. What if a meteor suddenly fell on us?"
A black line appeared on Caleb's face from the constant muttering of Rekka. Yes... Rekka always thinks the worst-case scenario would happen. He has a negative mindset and always thinks that something will go wrong. Or that he will gonna die... Seriously, Caleb just wants to fucking slap some sense to Rekka.
The guy was just too paranoid. It was comparable to a person who just recently watched Final Destination.
"Can you just shut up!? Damn you!" Kidd glared at Rekka hatefully. If in the past, he hated Kazuto the most. Now, Rekka was the one he found the most hateful. There's no peace of mind when around with him as his pessimism disturbs him.
Rekka possesses a striking and angular facial structure. His maxilla, or upper jaw, gives his face a defined and commanding look. The prominent cantal tilt adds an air of intensity to his gaze, emphasizing his piercing eyes.
His brow ridge is pronounced, casting shadows over his eyes and lending an enigmatic quality to his appearance. The mid-face is chiseled, and his forehead is marked by a deep furrow, suggesting a history of deep contemplation and perhaps a touch of wisdom. When, in fact, there was not.
His jawline is sharp and defined, framing his face with strength. He has a distinctive upper eyelid exposure, which contributes to an intense and scrutinizing gaze.
Dressed in a manner that seems to reflect a journey through the darkest recesses of the underworld, he wears a weathered, pitch-black shirt that clings to his form, as if it's seen its fair share of trials. The fabric is tattered at the edges.
His pants are equally dark, and they appear to have been through fire and back. Faint, cryptic symbols are etched into the fabric. Dark leather boots complete his style.
In terms of temperament, Rekka always has a gloomy air that surrounds him is not something easily conveyed in words but is visible in his very presence. He moves with a certain heaviness as if bearing the weight of countless tragic experiences.
His eyes, though intense, hold a sense of world-weariness, as if he has seen things most people could scarcely imagine.
Yeah, it was hard to believe that such a guy came from a high-ranking clan. Someone who possessed nine flame dragons. To have such a personality was beyond everyone present.
This guy might kill me! His angry with me? Does he plan to murder me?
Rekka took a step back warily and distanced himself from Kidd. "What do you intend to do?"
"Fuck!" Kidd was speechless at this moment. "There's something wrong with your brain!"
"Stop! That's not right to say to our new member, you know." Kazuto couldn't help but butt in before the situation could get worse.
Just as Kidd was about to refute. Caleb cleared his throat and looked at Rekka with a soft smile. "It's not the time for this. Still, Rekka, can you please tone it down and just chill a little? Relax, we won't just die out of nowhere. We are a team now. Once there's a problem. We will get through it and help each other out."
Damn this team! Caleb cursed secretly. It was a stark contrast to the gentle attitude he was showing on the surface.
