...Chapters 10. Rain Selection Test...

Since Minami's execution, Rain has been pensive for several days. At this moment, Rain was daydreaming in the roof with both hands stuffed into his pockets.

Then, Rain raised his right hand. "Had the chosen Minami had this maybe she didn't have to die. Is this step right or wrong?" inner Rain.

While Rain remembers Minami's words to be human and Rain also remembers her mother Davika, who Rain came home crying and then, Davika equalizes her height and calms Rain down.

"Rain, don't cry! You can be underestimated right now but, I am sure that one day you will become a great person with extraordinary strength. But, remember with great strength comes great responsibility. Remember what this mother said!"

Rain who heard that, he stopped his cries while nodding his head. After that, Davika hugged Rain with a smile.

Remembering that made Rain smile. Then, he asked for May's opinion.

"May, what's your advice for now?"

The kling!

[Master, my advice. You just focus on your goals and I'm ready to help you!]

Hearing Mei's opinion made Rain a little calmer.

"Right, I have to focus on my goal, too" Inner Rain clenched her hand.

Not long after, Uncle Kyle came over to Rain.

"Rain, you're here!"

Hearing that, Rain let go of her daydreams and looked at Uncle Kyle as well as giving a smile.

"Rain, your selection match is about to begin! I hope you can finish it" Kyle said.

Rain replied with just a nod of his head.

Not long after, Rain along with Kyle went to the Dojo field where all the disciples had lined up dogeza on the right and left side of the room whereas, Andreas and Jack were in the middle of the Dojo front.

Upon seeing Kyle, Andreas greeted him. "Rain, you've finally come! Please sit!"

Rain did not answer, he just lowered his head and sat Dogeza down. Not long after the selection exam began which only Rain left who had not yet tested.

"Well with this the selection exam begins!" Andreas looked at Rain. "Rain, stand up and show me your skills."

"Because Joe's selection exam hasn't been recognized yet then, Joe please come forward!"

Joe who heard that, he smiled widely then, he confidently stepped into the middle of the Dojo with a petty look at Rain.

"Hey, Rain. Actually, I don't want to fight with you. Because we're friends, aren't we?!" said Joe.

Rain did not reply, he just stared intently at Joe while recalling the incident during Minami's execution which Joe easily shot at Minami. That made Rain even more upset but, he was still able to hold her back.

After the two participants are in the middle of the Dojo, Jack gives a katana to Joe while right, Rain is given a dagger. Both weapons were selected at the request of both participants and weapons were required to be short-range weapons instead of firearms.

After receiving the weapon, Rain and Joe prepare his horses.

"Can you kill me?" just say it Joe.

Rain simply smiled in response to the words. Andreas started the match.

"The game starts!" exclaim Andreas.

Hearing that, Joe suddenly ran and swung his katana towards Rain but, Rain easily dodged him and Rain counterattacked quickly. Rain pierced the vital points that Joe shot towards Minami and ended it by heading to the side of his forehead until he fell down and did not live again.

Everyone in the room was shocked and stiffened to see Rain defeat and kill Joe quickly.

Without any language, Rain turned to face Andreas and bowed and left the Dojo.

Hanna who saw Rain, she smiled then, turned her gaze towards Joe who was already covered in blood in satisfaction.

But, different from Sandi. He stared like an enemy he had to defeat.

Meanwhile, Andreas had feelings of fear and worry.

"Like her, we've raised a monster!" andreas Mummings.

"I agree" replied Jack.

On the other hand, Rain stepped towards Minami's grave and upon arriving there, Rain gave a smile.

"Minami, I have your revenge. I pledge. Although, I'm here. I'll still be a human being" Inner Rain in front of Minami's grave.
