The Legacy System

Chapter 24 - 24: First Fight And Spaghetti



Eric seemed to treat them as real threats for a moment, and just harmful air the next one. Right now he was in front of them doing push-ups, without caring much about their presence.

How wouldn't something like this stun them, and hurt their ego's? So even though they were a bit apprehensive of what happened a few moments ago, their anger didn't let them stay put. ​​

The leader was the one whose ego had been hurt the most, and without waiting for his underlings to do something about this, he moved forward and attempted to hit Eric on the chin with a kick.

But that kick never connected, as soon as the kick was close, Eric moved in the counter direction, grabbed his kicking leg with his hand pushing it forwards, and then gave the guy a punch in the balls.

It was over with that though, before he could start screaming, Eric raised his leg in the air towards the guys head, and with beautiful accuracy, he grabbed his head and sent him flying towards his back.

The underlings were stunned, this was the first time they had seen something like this live. And their leader didn't seem able to get up right now.

He was so close to being able to escape, because Eric had turned to his push-ups, and yet he couldn't even get up and run.

The guys left on this site were at a loss for what to do. Their leader just had his ass kicked, and none of them had neither the courage nor the strength to go against Eric.

They were like a snake's body that had lost its head, and the only thing they could do now was to jump around in their place and get closer to each other.

On the other hand, Eric continued with his push-ups, he made 40 of them, he could do more but he guessed this was enough for another level up, together with the running, and the squats.

Right, he had to do the squats too. So treating the palpitating underlings like harmful air, he continued to do his squats.

Just like the push-ups, he did 40 squats in around 10 to 15 minutes. He had thought that maybe during this time some guys would take courage and come at him, but no, no one did.

He was a bit disappointed at these guys, but what could he do about it, these were just the weakest of them all.

As for their leader, he had already almost crushed his balls, so it would be a true challenge for him to get up right now.

Getting up from his squatting position, Eric started to take a look at each and every one of them. They were all the same cut, young men who had destroyed their bodies with smoking and drinking.

None of them seemed even a bit decent whatsoever.

Looking at their faces with the same empty look Eric said,

Eric:" Where are you guys from? You don't seem to be from my neighborhood, I haven't seen you around."

The guys facing him were still a bit stunned and didn't know what to do. Should they answer him, or not. Their leader wouldn't be happy at all if they did though.

Looking at their faces that were in between a hard place and him, Eric didn't say anything else, he just turned around and seemed like he would be leaving.

But no, as soon as he arrived at the leader guy on the ground, he grabbed him by the throat, and said,

Eric:" I know you are awake, and I know you can scream, or try to escape from me, but no one will be able to piece your jewels back together beside me.

Now would you like to tell me everything, or should I just beat you up and leave this place."

The leader was pretending to be still unconscious until now, but this guy had found out. He couldn't continue his dead play anymore.

The truth was that earlier he hadn't been able to breathe for a long time, and even some blood seemed to have come out of his family jewels.

That was certainly bad news for him. He had to go to the hospital as soon as he escaped Eric. But now he was in Eric's hands once again.

The truth was that he didn't dare to shout or scream, he didn't know what this demon might do to him next. But then hearing that Eric might help him get his jewels back, he was ecstatic.

So immediately, shamelessly without caring in the least about the etiquette, he started to spill everything.

Apparently, they were the small dealers of the next neighborhood, they were the guys were Miss Takase's son would take his merch.

Usually, they would deal only with that, but this time that guy didn't have money to pay them and had told them about this job.

They had to take care of one weak guy, and they would be able to make good money out of it. They just had to scare him off and take some videos he had taken before.

But who would have thought that Eric was such a demon, who had hidden himself this good? Clearly not them! That's why they ended up in their current situation.

Hearing this, a small smile started getting planted on Eric's face. He was racking his brains how to make that idiot close to Tina, but apparently, Tina had done this for him.

With this, his plans on Tina could start as soon as he got home. Now all that he was left, was deal with these leftovers.

What should he do to these guys? It was too risky releasing them in the night, just like that. Who knows what stupid things they might think later?

Looking the leader directly in the eye, he said with a skin piercing cold voice,

Eric:" Give me one reason, why I should let you leave with your lives?"

The leader was stupefied at Eric's words, this guy was asking for a reason why he should let them alive. They had never thought that their lives were on the line.

Maybe some good beatings, but never their lives. This changed everything. But what good reason could they give?

The leader couldn't think of anything good right now, and just sprouted some nonsense,

???:" Please let us go, we will never deal with such things ever again, and we will become good people."

Now it was Eric's turn to get stunned and said,

Eric:" Why the f*ck should I care about that, huh!? You can be the f*ck you want to be, I need security that you will keep your mouth shut, and not try anything stupid again."

The leader was there standing with his throat in Eric's hands, he didn't have any idea what he could say or do. The pain of his family jewels had left him to shock to lie right now.

Seeing him one last time in the eyes, Eric thought of something and said,

Eric:" Well I have the best idea, I will let you leave like this!

You can go to a hospital and visit your jewels but they won't be able to bring them back for you. But I can do that whenever I want."

Saying that Eric released the guy on the floor and then with a smirking look he turned around to have a look at the underlings, they had to be in the same position if they wanted to leave with their lives.

With this thought in mind, Eric ran towards them, catching them unprepared for this, he started kicking them one by one in their groins.

In less than 10 seconds, all the underlings were down on the ground holding their family jewels that had been popped up.

Doing all this, Eric just turned around and walked towards the leader once again, reaching him there he said,

Eric:" Continue with your lives like usual, when it's the right time I will come to you to help you. You better not try anything funny, otherwise…"

With that said, he disappeared from that alley, leaving the people in there, in their agony.

Eric didn't care about them. It was their fault for messing with someone and something they shouldn't. Right now he was regretting that he didn't take their money.

Damn, he had been too careless, how could he not think of this earlier. Well anyway, he could turn now once again and deal with it, but how much could they have anyway.

They were just the lowest ring of the chain and should be dirt poor. Probably they weren't worth it to get back and take their money.

He had already arrived in front of his building. He was now climbing the stairs towards his house, so it wasn't worth it for him to get back.

Thinking like this he went to his apartment door and opened it. There didn't seem to be anyone inside the house. It was completely empty.

Not that he cared much right now.

He just went towards the kitchen, and then opened the fridge, he was still terribly hungry. But there seemed to be nothing inside the fridge.

Well, he guessed he had to cook himself, there was no other choice. Opening one of the cupboards he took around 2 packets of spaghetti, and took them out, while he prepared the water.

In no time the water was boiling and it was ready for the spaghetti to be thrown inside, while Eric prepared the sauce on the side.

Even though he had achieved to be a powerful cultivator in his previous life, cooking was his passion. He liked it very much to cook new recipes, for him and his family.

Now that he was alone, the atmosphere was the best.

Really soon the spaghetti was ready, and a really nice smell was coming out of the dish, right at this moment, the bell rang…
