The Abandoned Hunter

Chapter 8: Proxy - Part 1

"Are... Are you kidding me? This time it's humans and you want me to be your proxy? Get lost you big lizard!!!"

At least that's what Jay Down wanted to say but he was aware of the gravity of his situation. He had to think carefully before uttering any word out of his mouth.

"Well... being a proxy is not bad... but why did you choose me...?"

It was obvious that Jay neither had any special skills nor any special talents.

"Grrr... human, are you doubting my choice?"

"N-No. What I mean to say is, I'm not as strong as you think. I'm probably the weakest human ever alive... so I'm the most unsuitable person to be your proxy..."

The real reason why Jay didn't want to be the proxy was because he didn't want to take any great responsibilities.

"Haha... well that will be seen after I grant you the title... till then all humans are just ants... so it doesn't matter if you are the weakest ant..."

"Eh? Ants? Sigh... I forgot with whom I was speaking..." *thinking*

"It doesn't matter whether an ant is strong or weak... in the end they are just ants and that's how he looks at us..." *thinking*

Of course he couldn't speak out loud but these were his real thoughts.

"Haha... but you aren't among them human..."

"Eh!? Not among them? What do you mean?"

"How to say it... your powers... you might have not realized yet but... you are far more stronger than the weak ants..."

"Ha!? My powers? But I don't have any powers of such quality... just a bit of fast healing capabilities and long distant vision..."

Jay was stating the truth. It was something he always has but whenever he tried to learn something new he would always fail.

"Hahahaha... it's amusing human... but what I told isn't a lie. Your powers are great, it's just that you haven't learnt how to use them... or maybe not awakened yet!"

"I'm tired of denying him... if I had the power I would have been like a hero... but what he told makes sense... I haven't learned how to use... or not awakened it yet?" *thinking*

"Then..."

"What?" (The Black Dragon)

"Can you compare my powers with any object or any thing that comes to your mind?"

Jay wanted to know that how great his so called powers were.

"..." ( The Black Dragon)

"..."

"Uh...I'm sorry I just blurted out of excitement..."

"Dragon..." (The Black Dragon)

"Eh? Yes?"

"Your powers are like a dragon... a sleeping dragon... which has disguised itself as an ant..."

"Huh...!?"

Jay wasn't able to believe what he had just heard. He wanted to jump with excitement.

"I wish I had a voice recorder here... I could have recorded a true dragon praising me!" *thinking*

"Re-really? My power is equivalent to that of a dragon?"

Jay's eyes were sparkling as he said this. After all seeing a dragon, that too a true dragon, appreciating a human's power to this level was not a daily occurrence.

"Yes, your power is that strong, but you aren't able to use even an ounce of that power!"

"..."

"Ya... I'm pathetic... even with this vast power... I'm useless..."
