BXBX NOVEL Chapter 38 Training Room
I nodded slightly at her and turned to the two teenagers once more.
"Mwa ha ha ha! How does that feel?" I laughed sinisterly and taunted Joseph whose left hand was clutching his right wrist. His right hand was a mangled mess after smashing into my rock-hard face with full force.
He was kneeling on the ground and whimpering lightly like a little beat up puppy. Tears streamed down his face freely as his face contorted in great pain.
Jennifer stared at Joseph\'s hand incredulously. "Ho-how… What…" She sputtered.
"I\'ve been trying my best to protect you from myself by dodging and ducking, but you… You insisted on smashing up your hand… Don\'t blame me. If you want to blame anyone, blame yourself for being so weak! BA HA HA HA HA! WEAKLING!" I laughed hysterically in front of his face before turning around to face Jennifer.
"YOU! Ugly little b*tch! You\'re lucky my reflexes were so good! If not, you\'d definitely have your hands or your feet broken as well! You\'re such a weak ass sorry excuse for a Whitefrost clan member. No wonder you don\'t qualify for a gold token! I\'d rather give the gold token to the family dog than to give it to you! OH WAIT! You\'re a B*TCH so you\'re a family dog as well! WOOHOO! Congrats! You qualify… wait for it in your next life! HA HA HA!" I totally destroyed her with my evil words.
Her mouth merely twitched as she held back her retorts. Fear was written all over her face at that moment. She had literally kicked at a metal plate, and at that moment, if the metal plate decided that it wanted to fall on her and injure her in someway, she would have no escape.
"Grr!" I growled and pretended to attack her.
"KYAAA!" She screamed in fear and gripped Joseph\'s broken hand by accident!
"ARGHHHH!!!" Joseph shouted in agony!
"HA HA HA HA!" Emma burst out laughing.
"Emma, I\'m done here. Let\'s go!" I announced. There was no point wasting more time with them. They were minor characters afterall.
"Hee hee hee. Okay Justin! Let\'s go!" Emma giggled cutely and led me into the lift.
And off we went.
"How do you like my performance? Pretty good eh?" I asked Emma smugly.
"It was very, very good." Emma nodded approvingly. "So good that I will recommend my school principal to sign you up for drama class at all costs!"
"What? What school principal are you talking about?" I asked with a growing sense of doom building up in my heart. Are these Whitefrost lunatics sending me to school??
"Oh, we really do need to start talking about the Gold Whitefrost Family token and all of its uses. You\'ll be going to school starting next month." Emma informed me casually.
My jaw dropped.
"SCHOOL?!" I shouted in horror. "I DON\'T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL!"
"Of course you have to go to school. You totally suck at everything!" Emma rolled her eyes at me.
"I\'m not going to school. I\'m perfectly fine the way I am right now thanks. In fact, with the fifty million dollars your grandpa gave me, I am set for life! I don\'t need to go to school at all. Who needs to learn how to write essays and stuff like that anyway?" I said firmly.
"You\'re not going to a regular school, silly. You\'re going to a mecha pilot school. You\'ll be learning all sorts of useful things! Basic combat, teamwork, tactics and strategies for sea, land and sky-based operations, ALL sorts of things!" Emma said.
"Nope." I shook my head resolutely. "I don\'t need to learn any of that."
Actually I knew I needed to learn all that. One day, maybe. But not right then.
"I just got fifty million dollars and a game-changing mecha core! Let me enjoy my life for a bit, at least! I don\'t want to be stuck in school!" I remember thinking.
"You know how bad you are in close combat. Apart from having an unusually thick skin, what other advantages can you boast of when you fight with someone at your level?" Emma said scathingly. "Plus if you don\'t learn all that, how on earth do you expect to achieve your dreams? What was that again? Mecha Emperor? Or was it Mecha-Pilot-Who-Can\'t-Even-Fight?"
I was about to retort back when suddenly the lift stopped.
Ding! The lift door opened and a maaaaaaaaaaassive underground dome appeared before me, instantly overwhelming me with a huge sense of smallness.
All thoughts and worries of school immediately left my mind as I stared dumbstruck at the massive space before me. Exciting sounds of mecha battles hit my ears like music.
It was a glorious place.
Imagine the biggest stadium you\'ve ever seen. How many could it fit? A hundred thousand people? How tall are the walls? Fifty meters?
Now take that stadium, multiply it by sixteen in size and by four in height, and place it underground. You\'ll see what I was seeing.
It was I N C R E D I B L E ! ! !
"It\'s massive." I said softly in awe as we stepped out of the lift and into the "Training Room".
"It\'s a small sized mecha training facility." Emma said in an amused voice. "But I do understand your awe. Although this is only a small sized mecha training facility, it IS the biggest one indoors. Most mecha training facilities are outdoors."
I nodded numbly.
In this mecha dominated era, everything is up-sized. As a pitiful junkyard scrapper, I was totally cut off from the rest of the world, and had absolutely no idea how things are outside of the junkyards that I frequented.
Whether or not the "Training Room" was big or small compared to other training facilities, I had no idea. All I knew was that the "Training Room" was singularly the most epic and wondrous place I have ever seen in my entire life!
The lift opened up to a large balcony that was actually made fully out of glass. Stepping out of the lift was like stepping into the main training ground itself. The only thing was that the balcony was around a hundred meters above the ground!
