A Poor Youth's Journey to Success
Chapter 33

Hearing the family's cheering voice made Haruka quickly approach them.

"Haruka, this is really good news, our family debt has been paid off because someone from the brown family helped us pay it off" his father told Haruka.

Haruka was also excited and very happy. But after a while, he realized he was looking for Eric.

"Dad, did you ever see the male friend who saved you this afternoon?" ask Haruka.

Quickly, I reply." oh he! I just kicked him out of our house. He really doesn't deserve to touch our house." Haruka's father said again while slightly annoyed. "if he's not the one who saved you, maybe from the beginning I've already kicked him out.”

Why would Dad do this? He was the one who saved me, so I should have appreciated him more as well" Haruka said in an angry tone.

His father lightly waved his hand." Forget about the kid, let's party to celebrate this."

Haruka already understood the nature of her father who was always arrogant and arrogant. So Haruka could only harbour her anger.

"Have it done, son, just let him go he'll only trouble you later" one man told the beautiful girl who looked sad.

Haruka goes and cries in the room, she is very sad to see her father so hearty to expel Eric, in addition Haruka also asks who the person who paid the debt of his family, his family debt, it appears that Haruka was thinking, why her family debt was paid by someone after Eric's appearance today.

Haruka is also very confused because the brown surname makes a lot of sense with the name Eric brown.

'Could it be Eric who did all this? Where he really came from.' Haruka continued to wonder to herself inwardly as to who this Eric was.

While all Kobayashi families are very happy because their family debt has been paid off.

"Patriarch, who exactly is the brown family that helped our family, hasn't the brown family been missing for the past 17 years and why is our family being helped by them?" ask one of the Kobayashi family members.

"Neither, I don't know what reason they are helping our family, which is important we thank the brown family no matter what," the Patriarch replied nonchalantly.

Back to Eric, it was already very late and the clock was already showing at 23:00. Eric is confused where he wants to go, because Eric has no acquaintances or family in Japan.

At that time the hotel was closed and the city of Yokohama was deserted in the middle of the night. Eric sleeps in the streets like a beggar.

That night Eric slept by the side of the road thinking about how to find Lyra.

"Lyra, I hope that we will be reunited" Eric said in his heart, that night Eric was filled with longing for Lyra but he was confused about where to find Lyra.

The next day Eric plans to buy an apartment for him to live in. But not far from there he saw a group of young men surrounding a woman. Eric approached them.

"Hi! What do you want to do with that woman!" Erick looks very brave. He was so focused on the prisoner.

All the gangsters looked back for the source of the sound, and it was Eric's voice.

"Eric help me!" shout Haruka.

Hearing that voice was familiar to Eric. Yes, that woman is Haruka who is surrounded by gangsters.

"I don't know either, they're looking for you and want revenge he said, "Haruka retorted. The girl had a bad feeling about them.

Hearing that Eric was a little surprised. Because he had just arrived in Japan and had never made a fortune there.

"Oh! So you broke my friend's leg yesterday" said one of the gangsters.

Finally Eric understood what they really wanted from Eric. They want to avenge their friend who Eric beat up yesterday when he saved Haruka.

"I'm sorry, sir, your friend attacked me yesterday" Eric replied. It was so relaxing but didn't seem to be playing games.

But the gangster members did not want to hear an explanation from Eric, they all immediately went forward and the intention of wanting to kill in the eyes of all the gangsters appeared.

Eric quickly realizes and without a second thought Eric immediately uses a deadly martial technique. Clasped tightly onto the man's wrist and began to numb some of the nerves in his hand.

All the gangster's hands were broken by Eric. And all that's left is one of those gangster leaders.

Then the gangster leader ran and kicked Eric's chest, Eric could not avoid because the gangster leader was too fast and nimble, Eric woke up and attacked the gangster leader however, Eric was, the gangster leader landed a hard punch on Eric's neck rendering Eric unconscious.

The gangster leader laughed

"Hahahah, you little boy, how dare you disturb my territory. I make sure today your life is gone" he said, acting arrogant.

When the gangster leader pulled out a knife and was about to stab Eric suddenly appeared 2 people dressed as beggars and attacked the gangster's chairman, he said,

"Hey you! Do you also want to interfere, are you friends of the boy, good that I will destroy all of you, so" said the gangster leader.

Without a word they both directly attacked the gangster leader and killed him. The scene was witnessed by all the gangsters and made them horrified.

Haruka at the side was also shocked and the first time she saw the murder before her eyes.

Haruka ran towards Eric and wanted to see his condition, but the two shabby-clothed people immediately took Eric away at high speed, like a flash of light.

At that time Haruka ran home and went straight to see her father.

"Dad please pin Eric down, he just saved me from a gangster siege, and he was kidnapped by someone" Haruka said. Who came to him his father.

"What?! He was kidnapped by someone? Thank goodness, why are you so worried about her, let her be kidnapped, poor people like her deserve it" Haruka's father replied bluntly.

Hearing his father's harsh revelation about Eric, Haruka was very sad and cried into the room.

Back to Eric, he was waking up from his stupor and he was confused as to whether he was hard to die or had been saved by someone.

When Eric looked around, Eric realized that there were two shabby men sitting by the door.

"Heyiii, are you the ones who saved me? And you two don't live in Leonard city, why are you in Japan?" erick did not understand.
