Chapter 49: CHAIRMAN 

"What do you think about my offer? It's not bad, right? I believe you will not lose. "

Thomas Westwood is cutting a lobster. On his front, there is a gorgeous woman. Miriam looks at him. She just looks, she didn't touch her food. Om Miriam's side, there's a 16 years old kid, the teen is sweating. 

"When I first saw you, I know that that you have the potential. What do you think? Money, fame, branded clothes, and luxury bags?  Just say it and I will give it to you. "

Thomas opens his mouth. 

" I believe you already know my background, Sir Thomas. "

"Yes. I gathered some information. You're the only daughter of the Poloma family. You have a great amount of business here and some connection internationally, but I think it's not enough to decline my offer. "

He smiles.

"My answers will not change. I'm sorry but I decline"

".... I don't want to do this, but Alfonso try to convince Miss Miriam."

Thomas sighs when he hears the answer that he doesn't want. 

"Yes boss"

A bodyguard steps in and confronts Miriam.  He summons his equipment and takes his weapon. A broadsword.

Thomas grins and explains Alfonso's power. 

"I know how you fight. You uses a bow. Which means you're weak in melee combat. Alfonso is level 174. Do you think you can beat hi-"

*crash*

"Aaarrggghhhh!!!"

Alfonso's arm twisted in an odd direction.  Miriam just uses her one arm to crush it. She doesn't give Thomas the time to explain, he broke Alfonso's arm. 

" Is that it? 174?"

"Aahhh!! My arm!!!!"

"S- Sister!! Stop this!!"

Alfonso fall and lay on the carpet, his arm is bleeding and he's badly hurt. He can't believe that someone has the strength to break his arm. The most humiliating thing is, it's a woman. A woman beats him just like that.

"W- what!! Alfonso get up! Don't you know how much I pay you!? "

Thomas is now dying in embarrassment. His face is red and he forces his bodyguard to move. 

"Thomas you're not a Hunter. You're just a parasite that takes our nutrition. Money? As if I need that. Let's go, Klein, your brother will be scared if he learns that you're missing. "

"Y- yes!"

Some bodyguards try to block their path, but it didn't work.  Miriam summons her bow and all of them stop their movements. They know what will happen if they do something. Miriam's video of killing monsters is famous all over the internet. 

Thomas watches the whole scene. He's aghast and he tries to stop his leaking but he can't.

"Where are those assholes!? They didn't do anything bad, right?"

Mikael appears but the problem is already deal with. Miriam solved it by herself.

"It's okay. They're gone. Let's go. "

Klein nods. He wants to forget what he saw earlier. 

"Yes, Brother Kyle, and brother is Kyle is waiting. Perhaps they miss us. "

Miriam chuckles, Klein's deduction is the opposite of what they're doing. 

"Haha, you sure about that? I checked them. Kyle's watching an action movie and Christian is playing wild rips? Is that how you call it? "

"I- is that so...?"

Mikael slightly laughs and corrects Miriam. 

"It's called wild rift. "

"Whatever~"

She shrugs, she doesn't care about the game.

"Miss Miriam, how did you do that? You're level 185, I know you're strong but I think you can't break his arms like a wooden stick."

Klein is curious about how Miriam beat the man.

"Why do you think I'm wearing a jacket?"

"... To prevent attention? "

"Nope. It's for protection."

She opens her jacket and shows what's inside. She's wearing a fitted leather armor inside her jacket. 

"Mikael gave this to me.  He gets it from the Basilisk, this armor has a good effect."

[ Basilisk Armor - decrease enemy strength by 40%, increase users Defense by 40%]

"Wow..., now I get it"

Klein realizes why the bodyguard lose. 

"I don't know why Mikael choose the book instead of this"

"....Perhaps Kuya loves you?"

Klein says though he's not sure. 

"Pfft- As if. There's a woman that Mikael's love. Besides, our age gap is too big... Ehem. Just forget what I said."

"Okay... eh!? What did you say!? Kuya loves someone!? What's her name? Tell me. "

"Secret"

She puts her index to her lips. 

"If you don't tell me. I will tell everybody that I saw your birth year. We can now deduce how old are you....yes, I'm sorry. I will not say it. So please drop the bow... "

Klein clasps his hands when he sees the arrow pointing at him. 

"If you dare to tell them..."

"Yes, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."

"Good. Anyway, where did Mikael go? I thought we're going to Laguna together."

"I don't know. Kuya said that he needs something to do. "

Klein scratched his head, his brother is not with them. 

Mikael told them to return first. He said that he will meet someone.  

"....."

Miriam uses her Clairvoyance to locate him.

.

In a newly established building of Hunter's Association. A man who's wearing jeans is holding his coke. He wants to drink it but he can't because there are two people inside the room and they are releasing a heavy atmosphere. He feels like it's odd to drink it. 

"Hey, Old man, why did you call me here? Make it quick cause I still have an appointment. Make it very fast, okay. "

"Haha, I'm sorry if I cause some disturbance, Miss Rena. "

Rena the Wind cutter is complaining towards the Chairman of the newly build Philippines Hunter's Association. 

Mikael is with them, the Chairman asked him to come here. However, he didn't know that there will be another person. 

"By the way, why's there a janitor here? I thought this is a serious meeting? Is this janitor under-age? "

Mikael squeezes the bottle of coke. He only meets Rena for the first time but he feels like he doesn't like her already.  

'What? Does my handsome face look like a janitor? Hehe, you are blind b*tch!'

He says inside his gentleman's brain. 

"Hey b*tch, please stop talking. Your breath stink! "

The woman feels embarrassed and she smells her mouth. Her face becomes red when she finds that Mikael only teases her. 

"Me? A b*tch!? Do you want a fight? Just say it and I'll give it to you! "

Rena uses her aura to intimidate him. However Mikael didn't back down, he releases his aura to fight back.  Now the two auras are fighting inside the room. Until another aura appears. 

"Mister Mikael and Miss Rena, please don't fight. This building is new, I don't want this newly built structure to destroy. They will cut it to my paycheck."

Chairman Renato glares at them to pacify the two. He is a hunter from District 2. He's a friend of Oliver Johnson, the Titan. He's a strong Hunter. He is Rank 29 in the Ranking Hall.

The two stop their bickering. Mikael knows this old man.  He remembers him.

As for Rena, she knows that the Chairman is not an ordinary person. She detects a strong power inside him.
