Chapter 378 - One punch



Chapter 378 - One punch

At first, the young man wanted to shout back and retort as the anger seemed to be bubbling up inside him. Who would dare to come and interpret him in the middle of his conquest for a beautiful girl? Not only that but the man had also placed a single gold coin. There were plenty of items in the shop that was better than the one they were going for and would be worth the amount the man was willing to spend.

However, as soon as the young man looked up at Jack. He bit his tongue, holding his words back. The person in front of him was a muscle-bound young lad probably not too far from his own age. When inspecting Jack closer, he had noticed that Jack didn't look like a wealthy merchant or adventurer.

These two types were the most common in the town of Zrey. Other than that it would be high ranking officials that were from the kingdoms or empire. With no weapons on him, and no fancy clothes, the young man didn't know where to place Jack.

'He must have stolen the money.' The man thought. Still, it was more reason for him not to get involved personally. If the two were to get into a fight, it was clear who would win. Luckily for him though he had hired a little help along the way.

"Rocky!" The young man shouted inside the shop. From out of the back near one of the cabinets, a fairly large man slightly bigger than Jack himself came forward and stood by the young man's side.

Rocky had a large scar going across his face and also wielded a large sword on his back. He looked like a veteran adventurer, and his tag that was out on display showed that. He was a Rank C adventurer.

"Are you prepared to take back your offer?" the young man said.

The shopkeeper was now shaking slightly, worried for what might happen in his store, while a small crowd of people had now gathered around to see what was the whole commotion was about.

"Will uncle Jack be okay?" Claire asked. "He can't transform into his werewolf form in front of all these people, and he doesn't know how to partly transform either.:"

The kids and teens knew from their own experience that they were actually quite weak when it came to fighting without the use of transforming. It was why the first thing they had learnt was to partly transform. As long as they were wearing thick clothing, it would be able to cover up the smaller details and allow them to fight at an inhuman level.

Although they knew Jack's body was strong from the training. That was only a basic tier weapon that had been used. In front of them, they could tell the man was strong, and his weapon was of higher quality. They were sure that if Jack was to get into a fight with the man without having to transform, he probably would lose.

"I don't think Jack's that stupid, he knows it's not worth it getting into a fight over just a necklace." Zinc replied.

Before saying anything else, Jack looked at the shopkeeper.

"Send the bill to the Dem family mansion. Tell them it's Jack. They will understand."

Jack lept from where he was standing towards Rocky, but he had anticipated this moving, the young man behind him and drawing out his weapon from his back. He swung down his sword, and at the same time, Jack lifted his hand.

Some of the audience members squirmed, while others couldn't keep their eyes of what was about to happen.

'I've never seen someone's arm get chopped off before." One of them said

As the blade came down and made contact with Jack's arm, a loud clang was heard as if it was hitting against metal. Using his strength, he pushed the sword away, causing it to fall and crash into one of the cabinets by their side.

Rocky was now off-balance from the weight of his sword and the powerful force Jack had used to move his sword away. Another fist was coming towards his stomach but Rocky wasn't afraid for he had a beast chest plate on. If it was a weapon, he would have been worried but not a bare fist.

Bracing himself for the blow, he tightened up his abs. When the fist was planting in his stomach, he felt like his eyeballs were about to shoot from his head.

The audience was shocked from what they were seeing as well, the larger men of the two were being lifted off from his fear and were flying up in the air. The blow Jack had given was an uppercut to the body, and now Rocky was completely detached from the ground and was halfway up from the ceiling and the floor.

As Jack pulled back his fist, Rocky's body flopped and fell to the ground, unmoving.

"Is he dead?" someone from the crowd said.

"From a single punch, that's impossible right."

Suddenly, Rocky, who was on the ground, started to cough violently and eventually vomited all over the floor.

The fight was over, and ack was looking for the young man who had caused all the problems in the first place, but it looked like he had already disappeared.

Walking over to Rocky who was on the ground, the others gulped thinking what would this brutal person do next. Was he going to kill Rocky there and then while he was injured.

Instead, Jack had bent down and picked up the necklace that was not on the floor. When the counter was smashed, glass shards and pieces of jewellery were thrown really hard all over the floor.

He walked back to the two teenagers and handed Claire the necklace. "I believe this is yours."

Jack turned around to look at Rocky, who was starting to recover a little. He had made sure to hold back his strength, he didn't want to kill a person who was just doing his duty of protecting someone.

"It looks like the person who hired you to protect you has disappeared. I recommend you find a new employer." As Jack said those words, the crowd of people started to disperse and disappear. They knew from the commotion that the yellow guards would soon appear and they didn't want to be involved when that happens.

The shopkeeper was too busy trying to pick up every item of jewellery that was smashed on the floor, rather than being concerned about Rocky or Jack.

"Come on, let's get out of here." Zinc said. "We're done for the day, let's just head back to the cave."

Claire then called the name of the three children, and immediately they came out running towards the entrance where they were. However, only two of the boys had turned up.

"Wait, where's Rachel?" Claire said.

"We don't know, we weren't with her when we were looking around."

Jack and Zinc immediately started to search for the place but found nothing until Jack managed to get a whiff of what Rachel sent. In the corner of the room was the backpack that Rachel was wearing, but she herself was nowhere to be seen.
