LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 6: 6
'I can make him stronger than his cannon self'
As soon as he decides to walk toward Little Daniel, he can see Zack and Mira heading in Little Daniel's direction. So Haneul just stays where he currently is at
"Why's he smiling at you? How old are you?"
"Seven-Seventeen"
"Same age"
"COME ON! LET GO!" Mira said grabbing Zack's hand and pulling him away
"You got lucky this time. Don't show your face around me."
Zack then proceeds to walk away with Mira. But Little Daniel follows shortly after.
"H-hey. How about the 3 of us get coffee together?"
"Oh yeah? The 3 of us?
"Y-yeah."
Without saying anything else, Zack punches Daniel on his left cheek, grabs his hair, and starts smacking him continuously. And as time passes on, people get in a crowd and start recording Daniel. While Zack was punching Daniel in the face, Haneul came and grabbed his fist before it could connect.
"Enough."
Hearing this Zack's eyes widened in shock
"Y-you. What are you doing here?"
"Doesn't matter. Let him go before I leave you in a worse condition"
"Y-You bastard."
Zack looks at Mira and decides to try to fight him again. And he puts up his boxing stance.
"Last time, I wasn't ready. This time I won't lose"
Haneul just looks at him in amusement.
"Is that so? Then come. The first punch is free"
Zack looks at him in shock but doesn't say anything else and rushes at him with a Dempsey roll and throws a Jab at his face, but this time, it connects to Haneul's face.
'Got him,' Zack grins due to him thinking he got Haneul
'W-WHAT?. IT DID NOTHING TO HIM?' Zack is wide-eyed due to Haneul's face of boredom
"Are you done? Now it's my turn." Haneul then copies Zack's exact move, but his move sends Zack flying.
The whole crowd went silent. And they all turn to Haneul. He just stands there as if he just swatted a fly and then looks at Daniel.
"Say. Let's move to an area with fewer people"
Haneul then grabs Daniel's shoulder and they both end up disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Z-ZACK ARE YOU OKAY"
Haneul can hear Mira from the background screaming.

In a random alley, Daniel is standing in front of Haneul.
"W-why did you help me?" Daniel asks Haneul while avoiding his eyes
"I'm curious as to the strength you can reach following me."
"H-huh?" Daniel looks at Haneul in the eyes
"I want you to join me and stand by my side."
"M-me?"
"Yes. You. Are you not sick of all the people treating you less than a human being? Do you want your whole life to be like this? Or do you want to become strong and leave this pathetic life behind?"
"O-OF COURSE I WANT TO." Daniel Said, on the verge of tears
"Then come. Join me and become strong"
Daniel looked up at Haneul's eyes and saw his eyes of determination.
"Ok. Please make me stronger"
"When I'm done. You won't even recognize yourself."
"The name is Haneul. Nice to meet you"
"M-my name is Daniel. Nice to meet you"
"Give me your contact I will be communicating with you shortly."
Daniel then gives Haneul his contact communication, and Haneul says his goodbyes and leaves

'Well. I'm gonna be broken as fuck.' Haneul smiles like a madman, thinking about his possibilities with this skill.
He then grabs his phone and contacts Jun-Seo.
"Yo Jun. Meet me at the same place as last time"
"On my way," Jun-Seo said with his voice gaining more confidence than what he previously had.

Haneul then approaches Jun-Seo.
'Now would be a good time to use that card on him.'
'Use Normal Card on Jun-Seo. The Crew Factor. Boost Endurance'

"Come at me Jun"
Jun-Seo then rushes to Haneul with a punch that has better form than any of the other punches he had ever thrown. Haneul lets it connect; he punches him in the face with enough force to send him back.
'He did get sturdier. Interesting.'
Although it hurt Jun-Seo, he didn't let this opportunity go and hit Haneul in the face. Getting attacked, Haneul smiled at the progress Jun-Seo was making. They continued exchanging blows, with Haneul holding back

"You're getting stronger, Jun" Hanuel told Jun-Seo who was currently lying down out of breath
"Thanks"
"Next time I see you it'll be time for me to teach you a fighting technique"
"Alright"
Haneul then says his goodbyes to Jun-Seo and goes home.
He arrives home and does his traning. While doing so, he notices himself adapting to his training and being able to do more and more so much that he feels he could do it forever.
'Why do I have the urge to fight someone strong?'
