The Human Giant

Chapter 360 Chapter 359: The Ghost In The Bush!

"I won," Evi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had knocked out Blood Stepper.

Just as he was about to turn around and ask Yoze whether or not he had passed the test, he noticed that Blood Stepper's body slowly slid into a nearby bush. A cold chill crawled up his spine as he could only think of one thing.

"A ghost! Damn, first I met two robbers, and now there is a ghost." Evi mumbled to himself as he backed up.

"Evi, what are you doing? Stop that second robber from dragging his brother into the bush." Yoze let out, speechless about what he saw.

He didn't expect his friend to be so superstitious. At first, he thought the two robbers were shadow monsters, and now he believed that a ghost was dragging the robber's body.

"His parents have been feeding him too many ghost stories. Come on, this is the real world. How could ghosts exist? Scratch that...ghosts are a hundred percent real because this is the real world." Yoze held his tongue when he realized that from everything he experienced, he shouldn't be questioning the existence of ghosts.

Evi blushed from embarrassment when he heard Yoze point out the obvious and quickly ran toward the bush to stop the younger brother from saving his brother.

"Brother, I am sorry!" Seeing that he had been noticed, the younger brother picked up the pace of dragging his brother into the bush.

When half of Blood Stepper's body had made it halfway into the bush, Evi arrived and grabbed one of Blood Stepper's limbs. With one hand holding Blood Stepper, Evi dragged his tired body and threw a Spiral Bear Fist into the bush.

Due to his fatigue, the power of his Spiral Bear Fist wasn't as powerful as before, but it was still too fast for the younger robber to dodge. With a light thud into his chest, the younger robber felt his breath leave his body.

Quickly following his successful punch, Evi threw another Spiral Bull Fist straight into the young robber's jaw. Though the remaining power that Evi could summon was less than half of before, he still landed a critical hit and knocked the younger robber out of the bush.

"One hit KO! What a clean hit!" Yoze said with a smile.

"Shit! I am so tired...Yoze, can you lend me a hand?" Extremely exhausted after training hard all day and fighting against two opponents, Evi felt he was on the verge of passing out.

"Of course, I will take care of the rest. You just get some sleep. After what you have been through today, you deserve it." Yoze paused before he added another sentence.

"You did so good that you deserve a reward. But it is a bit special, so I will give it to you when we get back to town."

"Thanks, I will go to sleep now." Too tired to think about Yoze's mysterious reward, Evi dragged his body back to his sleep spot and immediately fell asleep.

Seeing this, Yoze shook his head but felt his heart become warm. As his first student and one of his few friends in this world, he was happy to see that his friend had become quite strong.

"If Evi fought against my younger self when I first started martial arts, I would lose without a doubt. For me to win against those two bandits, I needed to ambush them and hit them fast and hard."

"If they had fought back, I would have lost." Yoze licked his lips as he stared at Evi before focusing on a tree.

"Scar, have you and the other found a nearby town close by that we can drop these two off?" Yoze said to the darkness.

"Caw!"

"Strange, how could a town have only a hundred residences? Whatever, it doesn't matter how big or small this town or village is. As long as it accepts these two, it's fine."

"Scar, what else did you find?"

"Caw! Caw! Caw?"

"Interesting? Are you sure you smelled the scent of a Blood Master?"

"For such a small town to have a Blood Master is very weird, but we can start advertising the School of Eternal Knowledge nevertheless." After getting the information he desired, Yoze walked toward the large bag that Blood Stepper had picked up and took out a long, thick robe he had prepared beforehand.

It didn't take long for Yoze to deal with these two ordinary robbers, and with the help of his spiritual energy, he didn't need the rope to keep them unconscious. But he did it nonetheless since it would make it more convenient to travel with them in the morning.

...

The next morning, Evi woke up refreshed and hungry.

"Yoze, when is breakfast?" Evi asked Yoze, who was already awake and writing something in his journal once again.

"Breakfast is already prepared. Just dig in. After all your hard work to save me yesterday, I prepared you a big breakfast. There is rabbit meat mixed with demon meat stew, a side of bread, and a tall glass of fruit juice." Yoze said with a smile as he closed his journal.

"Thank you! Yoze, you're the best! Plus, you are an incredible cook. It's like you are getting better at cooking every day." Evi's mouth began to water when he saw the wide range of delicious food in front of him,

"I get my talent from my father," Yoze said truthfully.

After eating until he was full, Evi finally noticed that the two robbers last night were awake and staring at him with envy. They had not had time to eat all day, and to prepare for yesterday's robbery, they only ate snacks to satiate their hunger.

So now they were famished, and being forced to watch Evi eating delicious, freshly made food right in front of them was torture.

"I am indeed too kind. There is no need to waste this good food." Evi sighed as he turned his back away from the two robbers.

He felt bad for them, so he ensured they didn't have to be tortured by the sight of food. He quickly ate the rest of the food and patted his full stomach.

"That was cruel," Yoze's eye twitched when he saw what Evi did.
