X-Rank Hunter

Chapter 134: The Sole Survivor

Tap!

A low sound of a hand falling on the table echoed across the area causing silence around.

Everyone widened their eyes. They were all dumbstruck. What was going on?! Were they trying to put a play here? They should understand that it was not funny at all!

Even Jan was no exception and got his eyes widened. But it wasn't because of being dumbstruck but because the sight was way too inconceivable. His lively commentating had even turned deathly silence not too long after the match had started. How could he not if he would just see the little girl had just merely waved her hand and she had defeated Kyle in a mere second! Jan even rubbed his eyes to see if he was just dreaming but no matter how hard he rubbed, the scene was just the same.

The way of defeating his student, no, little brother was way too one-sided! As if a tree had just fallen on the ground, that was how was Kyle's hand fell against the little girl, not even a little retaliation! Just who was this little girl for real?! He never heard anyone as strong as her from any of the top Academies! Was she a hidden talent?!

On the other hand, as everyone else was dumbstruck, a certain person was sweating profusely. He was, of course, no other than Kyle! The one who experienced a one-sided defeat! Although he knew that he would probably be defeated by the other party, he never expected that he would be defeated that way!

It was as if his strength had betrayed and left him the moment the match had started. He couldn't even put up a fight!

Fear! At that moment, fear was the only thing he felt. He wasn't even surprised nor shocked at what had just happened. All he wanted right now was to stay away from this little girl before him!

"Yey! I won the match! Where's my price? Where's my price?!" On the other hand, after defeating the other party, the little girl jumped up in joy. She hurried the man before her to give her the price already.

Only then did everyone was jolted awake. They immediately burst into an uproar complaining about what had just happened! Was this a joke?! They should have told them first so that they could laugh! Or if this show was supposed to make them amazed, they should still have told them so that they could clap!

Just what were they doing?! The crowd only saw that the little girl had only waved her hand leisurely and the other party was immediately defeated just like that! If that was not an act then they must be dreaming!

"Teacher..." This time, however, Kyle shifted his gaze to his teacher. He didn't correct it anymore to call the other party Kuya. He was just trying to say that this time, they had found what they were looking for! A person with strong potential who would be given a chance to study for free at their Academy, 'Mandirigma Academy'!

Kyle could tell that this little girl had no frightening background and might have come from any of the small families here in this remote place. He was just confused about how could such a monster appeared in this remote place! He meant, they could find a hidden talent in a remote place, but a hidden monster of this kind? Even in the top strongest families, he was having a hard time thinking about who could be compared to her.

One must know that he himself was a genius from the top Academies. He came from one of the top five strongest families as well. But this little girl had actually defeated her so easily?! Just how in the world did anyone not notice her existence?! If her existence came into light, the whole kingdom might burst into an uproar!

Jan of course knew how monstrous the little girl really was. And he had decided that no matter what, he would definitely not let this little girl go! She must become a student of Mandirigma Academy!

"Of course, of course, this is your price," Jan gave the Bahaghari inside the box to the little girl as he asked, "May I know this little girl's name?"

But instead of a reply, what he received was a word of disbelief saying, "What?! This is the Bahaghari?! How can I eat this thing?!" The little girl glared at Jan as she added, "Don't joke with me! Give me the real thing!"

"This..." Jan didn't know what to say. Was this girl had gone mad?! What other Bahaghari was she talking about?! He even wondered if the other party was just messing up with him but seeing the seriousness in her, Jan could only believe that the other party knew nothing about Bahaghari. Helpless, he could only explain to her, "But this is the real Bahaghari. It really is inedible because it's a precious stone."

"B-bahaghari is not a food?" It was noticeable that the little girl was saddened. She could still tell that the other party wasn't lying. With a disappointed look, she raised her hand to pick the rainbow-colored stone placed on the box with her thumb and index finger. And with a plop, the precious stone they were talking about had cracked and turned into many pieces as its shine was finally no more. With veins popping out, the little girl complained as she raised her palm towards Jan, "Precious stone my ass! I don't want this thing! Give me ten buckets of chicken drumstick instead!"

On the other hand, the crowd found their jaws dropping on the ground. How could they not if they would just see right in front of their eyes how the little girl crashed the Bahaghari with just her mere fingers! Only at that moment did they realize how monstrous the little girl in front of them really was. But to crash the precious stone just like that? Even them felt their heart hurt a bit. That was half a million gold coins! And it disappeared just like that?! 

On the other hand, Jan had his eyes widened in shock as well. To crash the Bahaghari just like that? She must be incredibly strong to do that!

But what he didn't understand was that this little girl was actually looking for ten buckets of chicken drumstick instead of Bahaghari! It had to be known that one could buy multiple tens of thousands of buckets of chicken drumstick if they sold this Bahaghari! But this girl actually...

Jan couldn't understand the little girl at all. But one thing was certain, this girl must really be a country bumpkin! Or even worse than that! It was as if she was living under the rock in her entire life as she had just come out!

"What are you waiting for?!" The little girl stood up from her seat as the hint of anger was revealed in the aura she exuded. With an icy tone of her voice, she said, "Hurry up and give me ten buckets of drumstick!"

At that time, however, a birthmark was revealed under her left short sleeve. It was something like a crown.

"Ahhhh!" Someone cried out in shock as he pointed his forefinger towards the girl. It was obvious that he recognized the birthmark. When he saw it, he reflexively stepped backward in fear and astonishment. And even with a stuttered voice, he muttered in all difficulty, "K-k-kas-tel Family!"

"What did you say?!" His voice might be low, but everyone around had still heard it as clear as the day! And when they shifted their gaze towards the little girl more attentively, only then did they notice the birthmark on her left arm.

And upon seeing it, only then did they recognize who was the little girl. "Janine Kastel!" Everyone muttered simultaneously. They all knew that she was the sole survivor of the so-called strongest family of the kingdom! And they all knew all the deeds she had done in these past few years!

When her family was annihilated, the Hunter Association tried their best to adopt and raise her. But she refused to. She instead chose to live alone in the Sierra Madre she called home, the place where her family got annihilated by a single demon and its minions.

The Sierra Madre was the largest mountain range of the kingdom, and dangers were no doubt to be everywhere. But this Janine Kastel managed to survive in this environment all alone! One must know that at the time when her family was annihilated, she was just five years old. But up to till now, she'd overcome all the dangers all by herself and was now standing in front of them!

Or at least, that was what the rumors say.

People around could only swallow their dry saliva as they looked at Janine as if they were looking at a living legend. Those people who were on the other side and didn't have a chance to see the birthmark could only feel confused. But upon hearing from the others the name Janine Kastel, their confusion turned into disbelief as they looked at Janine.
